Here we find the Gutenberg Bible—the first Bible and the first large book ever printed. To tell its story—the five years it took to print it, the hands through which it has passed, its coming down the centuries with only two torn leaves, to the corner of a country undreamed of when it was being printed by Johannes Gutenburg—would sound more like fiction that fact. Neither the District of Columbia nor the Federal Government taxes the $250,000 Gutenberg Bible in the Congressional Library; but strangely enough, California taxes this Huntington gift as it were a money-carrying income—of presumably no course, but because the makers of the state constitution never anticipated such a gift as this to the tax payers themselves. The legislature, however, has allowed the citizens of California a chance to remedy the situation. It has submitted an amendment to the Constitution (Deposition 151), and if carried, this public service institution—the most noted of its kind in the world—will be placed in the same category with other public libraries, save that the people are not tagged to suppore it. Anaheim Hi Asked To Join Contest Anaheim high school has been invited to join contests to be held at the University Farm, Davis, November 1, when fruits and vegetables will be judged by agriculture students from schools of the state. Sponsored by the Division of Pomeology at the College of Agriculture, the contests are part of a policy adopted by the College of taking an active interest in high school agriculture classes. "An increasing attendance at judging contests held at the University Farm is apparent," declared L. M. McQuesten, who is in charge of the November contests. "Many schools have in the past been emphasizing livestock, dairy products, poultry, etc., in connection with judging, even though their communities had very little of this type of industry from a commercial standpoint." Public Institutions Have To Pay Tax Educational Gifts from Henry Huntington to the People Are Now On Tax Duplicates BUT REMEDY IS AT HAND Voters to Ask for Change in State Constitution Two public institutions, both educational and cultural in their influences, which were outright gifts to the people of California and to all America, neither of which cost tax payers anything in the beginning and do not cost them anything for upkeep and expansion, are under unusual circumstances compelled to pay taxes into the public treasury. These two institutions are the Henry Huntington Library and Art Gallery at San Marino. The situation is unusual in that no other public libraries and art collections in California and or in the United States are by force of circumstances compelled to pay taxes. Two hundred and seven acres of grounds; two stately buildings; paintings that once belonged to the Morgans, the Goulds; to the Dukes, Earls and Lords of England—books that generations of book lovers spent fortunes to collect; furniture which was made by master chionistes, who spent years upon a single piece before initialing it with the "M.E" which means as much to expert collectors of antiquities as a signature on a deed; music with pictures for notes, dating back to the tenth century—these are just a part of the treasure-trove in the Huntington library and art gallery. On the 30th of August, 1919, Huntington decided the whole institution-Library and Art Gallery and everything in them botanical gardens and grounds courage study and research in original sources of history, literature, art, science and kindred subjects" to a board of trustees, selected by Mr. Huntington, worked with him from 1919 up to the time of his death. These trustees are: Henry M. Robinson, George Ellery Hale, Archer M. Huntington, Robert A. Millikan and Henry S. Pritchett. Dr. Max Farrand, formerly professor of history at Yale and at Stanford University is the director of research, responsible to the board and people for the management of the whole institution. "It is intended to have a permanent research staff attached to the library." Director Farrand explained, "but conditions have not yet warranted appointments. Meanwhile, in addition to the research students who have come here on their own accord, the trustees have invited distinguished scholars in various fields to visit the library, and their visits have varied from weeks to years." This is not just a library; it is a collection of libraries. Instead of buying books, Mr. Huntington bought whole libraries, including everything that went with them. Fortunately for the people of California, he could afford to buy what he wanted. And what he wanted were libraries like that belonging to the Duke of Devonshire, which had been accumulating for centuries. He began, however, by buying the E. Dwight Church library of New York. This collection of rare works on early American history and early English literature was surpassed by only a few English libraries. But that was just a start. In bewildering succession, Mr. Huntington acquired: The Beverly Chew collection of early English poetry, with its rare and first editions, as well as original manuscripts of celebrated poems, and he added to this selections from the celebrated Robert Hoe collection: The Judge Russell Henderson librarian sponsored by the Division of Pamology at the College of Agriculture, the contests are part of a policy adopted by the College of taking an active interest in high school agriculture classes. "An increasing attendance at judging contests held at the University Farm is apparent," declared L. M. McQuesten, who is in charge of the November contests. "Many schools have in the past been emphasizing livestock, dairy products, poultry, etc., in connection with judging, even though their communities had very little of this type of industry from a commercial standpoint. "The contests next month are a splendid opportunity for those schools located in communities specializing in fruits and vegetables." Pears and apples will be used most extensively in the fruit judging contests. Five varieties of each will be placed before the students for judging purposes. Carrots, potatoes, onions and tomatoes have been chosen for the truck crop contestants to judge. Table grapes and juice grapes, selected from a list of 17 varieties, will face students in a special grape judging contest. A landscape contest is to be held along with the vegetable and fruit judging. One team will be entered from each school, of three members, and each contestant will submit one set of drawings. Lords of England—books that generations of book lovers spent fortunes to collect; furniture which was made by master chonistes, who spent years upon a single piece before initialing it with the "M E" which means as much to expert collectors of antiquities as a signature on a deed; music with pictures for notes, dating back to the tenth century—these are just a part of the treasure-trove in the Huntington library and art gallery. On the 30th of August, 1919, Huntington deeded the whole institution-Library and Art Gallery and everything in them, botanical gardens and grounds "for the advancement of learning, the arts and sciences, and to promote the public welfare—to prosecute and en- He began, however, by buying the E.Dwight Church library of New York.

In bewildering succession, Mr. Huntington acquired: The Beverly Chew collection of early English poetry, with its rare and first editions, as well as original manuscripts of celebrated poems, and he added to this selections from the celebrated Robert Hoe collection: The Judge Russell Benedict library of colonial laws, including many of the early colonial charters: The Duke of Devonshire's dramas and Caxtons. Also the John Philip Kemble collection, which the sixth Duke of Devonshire had bought and added to, "rivalling and in some respects surpassing the Shakespeare collection of folios and quartos in the British Museum and Bodleian library, previously regarded as the best in existence": The Frederic R. Halsey library—20,000 valuable volumes, including original editions of Dickens and irreplaceable Americana; The Britwell Court library, with its early American rarities; The Bridgewater Library, founded by Sir Thomas Egerton, Baron Ellesmere and Vlcount Brackley—4,400 volumes, embracing poetry, dramas, political tracts, proclamations, edicts, Civil war newspapers, 200 illuminated manuscripts and some 10,000 other writings. (Some of the manuscripts were written in the thirteenth century. A "Titus Andronicus," by Shakespeare, is one of only two copies known.) This library includes many rare Bibles, Testaments, songs, psalters and plays); Next came the Snider collection of old Bibles and tenth century music and the Morrow Library, with its Cruikshanks. Then Mr. Huntington proceeded to fill in the gaps with rare manuscripts and original editions—such as the letters of Columbus, of Pizarro and other conquerers of the Americas; the Judd Stewart collection of Lincolniana, the Lewisson collection of Washingtoniana, and the Nicholson collection of Civil War materials. The incunabula, or "Swadling Clothes" books, including books printed between 1450 and 1501 when printing was in its infancy, include 5,300 titles from 705 different presses in 153 differ- Sam Jernigan Endorsement of his candidacy from the veteran ranks, ested in veteran welfare w Press their endorsement a Harold Rassmussen Dick I Wm.

Anglers may bring in their own catches and have them canned with their own names branded on the cans. This Orange county plant will be the only cannery in California offering this service to anglers. Albacore will be the next fish appearin' local waters, according to the manager of the plant. DATES FOR LONDON MENUS California dates may soon appear on menus of the most exclusive dining places in London, displacing those from the great date producing centers of Northern Africa, a territory largely controlled by the British. This announcement was made following requests from T. P. Henderson, California state bureau of commerce, European trade commissioner, that the bureau send samples of local dates to England. English importers have become interested because of superior quality, uniform grading, and attractive appearance of the California grown product. C. E.
