+FOREWORD
+
+
+Our state literature is strongest in local lines. First in early history
+and narration of personal adventure. Fortunately our most important
+histories are written by men who have long been residents. Meany, Lyman,
+Durham, Snowden and Bagley have themselves been a part of the story and
+have learned much at first-hand. Their pages have a flavor of personal
+interest which some histories lack.
+
+The adventures of today become the history of tomorrow. Even the most
+commonplace narration of experience in a new country has its value.
+Those original documents, whether diary, letters, memoir or
+autobiography are the delight of one who has the true historian's
+instinct.
+
+The mythology of the tribes that eighty years ago held possession of
+this territory is native romance, a literary asset which has been well
+developed. Lyman has collected the myths and legends of the peoples on
+the Columbia. Williams tells those that cluster about Mount Rainier.
+Meany, Curtis and other historians have enlivened their text by these
+romances and Miss Judson has made the field her own.
+
+A second treasure supply of the state lies in its natural wonders and
+beauties. What other state can boast of charms so varied? No other
+country has scenery surpassing in grandeur our mountains and forests, or
+more beautiful than our inland sea with its emerald shores and islands.
+
+Williams is not alone in exploiting this rich treasure. A score of
+others have found in it the source of mood for their songs or the frame
+for a story or romance.
+
+In philosophic essay and the higher forms of pure belles-lettres the
+proportion of writings is not so large as in the old literary centers.
+Thought and time are still requisitioned for the founding of
+institutions. Few are the leisure-class people who pursue writing as an
+art. Yet one who cares to investigate will discover that no other state
+while so young has shown a richer output of literature, in content, in
+scope or in character.
+
+Perhaps this first published list will add to the number of those who do
+care to investigate. Perhaps too it will result in a wider acquaintance
+among those who are following the same undying art. Some day Washington
+writers will band together for mutual benefit.
+
+
+
+
+HISTORY
+
+=1. Blazing the Way.= (1909.) Emily Inez Denny. Pioneer home-life
+ pictured by the daughter of the early settler who wrote No. 21.
+
+
+=2. Columbia River, Its History, Its Myths, Its Scenery, Its Commerce.=
+ (1909.) William Dennison Lyman. Fully descriptive and reciting
+ personal adventures. Professor Lyman, long-time teacher of history in
+ Whitman College, has lived his whole life in the country he describes.
+ The book contains many Indian legends. Eighty illustrations.
+
+
+=3. The Conquerors.= (1907.) Rev. A. Atwood. Dedicated to Jason Lee and
+ the pioneer missionaries who laid the foundations of American
+ institutions in old Oregon. Much about Lee whose missionary labors
+ antedated Marcus Whitman's by two years. To some extent it touches the
+ so-called Whitman controversy, a discussion due in part to the fact
+ that the admirers of Whitman claimed too much for a patriot whose
+ services needed no exaggeration. It has the endorsement of the
+ Washington State Historical Society.
+
+=4. Glimpses in Pioneer Life on Puget Sound.= (1903.) Same author. A
+ history of the Methodist Episcopal Church on the Pacific Coast.
+
+
+=5. David S. Maynard and Catherine T. Maynard.= (1906.) T. W. Prosch.
+ Biography of two of the immigrants of 1850. Mrs. Maynard is honored in
+ Seattle as the founder of a free reading room which grew into the
+ Young Men's Christian Association of the city.
+
+
+=6. Gettysburg.= (1911.) Captain R. K. Beecham. An account of the great
+ battle. Acknowledged to be most complete and accurate as to facts and it
+ is written with the fire of a patriot and a poet. The veteran returns to
+ visit the battle-field where as a youth half a century before he
+ fought for the flag. Through his eyes and memories the reader sees
+ events.
+
+
+=7. History of Puget Sound Country.= (1903.) Colonel William Farland
+ Prosser. The late president of the State Historical Society compiled
+ this work in two large volumes, a painstaking and valuable reference
+ work.
+
+
+=8. History of Seattle.= (1916.) Clarence B. Bagley. Three large
+ volumes. Very comprehensive. The third volume is wholly biographical.
+
+=9. In the Beginning.= (1905.) Same author. A sketch of events in
+ Western Washington while it was still a part of old Oregon. Published
+ separately, also in the 1909 edition of Meeker's "Pioneer
+ Reminiscences."
+
+
+=10. History of the State of Washington.= (1909.) Edmond S. Meany. The
+ most accurate and complete history of the state. In some measure it
+ covers the whole Pacific slope. It is intended for school use but will
+ interest any one who likes to study or read history. The story is
+ divided into discovery, exploration, occupation, territorial days and
+ statehood, each treated clearly and fully. The author, professor of
+ history in the University of Washington, is a hero-worshipper and
+ extolls the daring of the adventurer and the patience and courage of
+ the pioneer.
+
+=11. Vancouver's Discovery of Puget Sound.= (1907.) Same author. Largely
+ the journal of the discoverer with extensive notes, many portraits and
+ biographies of the men whose names were given to geographic features
+ of the Northwest. A most important piece of historic research. A
+ fitting supplement to this work is
+
+=12. A New Vancouver Journal on the Discovery of Puget Sound, by a
+ Member of the Chatham's Crew.= (1915.) Edited by Professor Meany.
+
+=13. United States History for Schools.= (1912.) Shows the development
+ of America as part of world history. This has met with general
+ approval as a text-book.
+
+
+=14. History of Washington, The Rise and Progress of an American State.=
+ (1909-1911.) Clinton A. Snowden. Four elegant volumes in half-leather
+ and rich in illustrations. Two later volumes issued as supplements are
+ wholly biographical.
+
+
+=15. The Iron Way.= (1907.) Sarah Pratt Carr. The story of the building
+ of the Central Pacific, the first transcontinental railway.
+
+=16. The Cost of Empire.= Same author. The record of the Whitman
+ massacre. It was made the basis of the opera "Narcissa" of which Mrs
+ Carr's daughter, Mary Carr Moore, wrote the music.
+
+
+=17. Life of Isaac Ingalls Stevens.= (1900.) Hazard Stevens. The two
+ volumes contain much information about the early Indian wars, councils
+ and treaties. They show the simplicity of official form during the
+ life of the first Governor of the Territory.
+
+
+=18. Marcus Whitman, Pathfinder and Patriot.= (1909.) Rev. Myron Eells.
+ The author is son of Rev. Cushing Eells, founder of Whitman College
+ and personal friend and co-worker with Whitman.
+
+=19. Fathers Eells, or the Results of 55 Years of Missionary Labor in
+ Washington and Oregon=, by the same author, is a biography of the
+ father.
+
+
+=20. Memoirs of Orange Jacobs.= (1908.) Written by himself after a life
+ of eighty years, fifty-six of them spent in Oregon and Washington. It
+ contains a good account of the Seattle fire of 1889.
+
+
+=21. Pioneer Days on Puget Sound.= (1888 and 1908.) Arthur A. Denny. An
+ interesting autobiography and valuable for its story of the founding
+ of Seattle.
+
+
+=22. Pioneer Reminiscences of Puget Sound, The Tragedy of Leschi.
+ (1905.) Ezra Meeker. An account of the coming of the first whites,
+ their encounters with the red race, the first treaties with the
+ Indians, the war that followed, and the cruise of the author on
+ Puget Sound fifty years ago. One edition contains Bagley's In the
+ Beginning.
+
+=23. The Ox Team; or The Old Oregon Trail.= (1906.) The story of a slow
+ and eventful journey by ox team from the Middle West to this territory
+ more than sixty years ago. Mr. Meeker and his oxen have been a
+ conspicuous feature of several western expositions and are a
+ picturesque relic of the fast-fading pioneer life. Today, Ezra Meeker,
+ eighty-four years old, is crossing the continent in a
+ "schoonermobile," a motor car built on the lines of the old-time
+ prairie schooner. It contains a bed, a stove and a hunting outfit. He
+ is retracing the journey of the ox cart.
+
+
+=24. Russian Expansion on the Pacific, 1641-1850, An Account of the
+ Expeditions Made by the Russians Along the Pacific.= Frank Alfred
+ Golder. In January 1914 the author was sent to St. Petersburg to
+ catalogue the materials in the Russian archives relating to America.
+ The work was done for the Carnegie Institute, department of historical
+ research. Professor Golder is one of the few American historians who
+ are familiar with the Russian language and his selection was
+ complimentary to him and to the State College.
+
+
+=25. The Siwash, Their Life, Legends and Tales.= (1895.) J. A. Costello,
+ an old resident of Puget Sound. The material was gathered chiefly from
+ the Indians themselves. This book contains a good description of Chief
+ Seattle. Out of print.
+
+
+=26. Spokane and The Inland Empire.= (1912.) Mr. N. W. Durham. In three
+ large volumes.
+
+
+=27. Syllabus of Continental European History from Fall of Rome to
+ 1870.= (1904.) Oliver Huntington Richardson.
+
+
+=28. Tillicum Tales of Thurston County.= (1914.) Mrs. George
+ Blankenship. Full of historical material of more than local value and
+ interest.
+
+
+=29. Washington and Its Swedish Population.= (1905.) Ernst Teofil
+ Skarsteadt. The author has been a resident of the state fourteen
+ years. As newspaper man and contributor to Eastern journals he has
+ well covered the life of his fellow-countrymen in this state. He has
+ written on subjects sociological, historical, agricultural and
+ biographical.
+
+=30. Our Heroes of the Pen.= Mr. Skarsteadt considers this his most
+ valuable work.
+
+
+TRAVEL AND DESCRIPTION
+
+Books on Alaska would fill a long shelf. Three are particularly
+entertaining and rich in description.
+
+=31. Alaska, an Empire in the Making.= (1913.) John Jasper Underwood.
+ Written after fourteen years continuous residence in Alaska and the
+ Yukon Territory. The writer, a newspaper man, sees things from the
+ impersonal viewpoint of the journalist with a keen appetite for news.
+ For a time he ran the "farthest north" newspaper, which sold for
+ "ivory, gold-dust and skins." These words are characteristic of his
+ wide-sweeping vision: "Here is a land of 25,000 miles of coastline and
+ with 6,000 miles of navigable waterways." The United States bureau of
+ education has put this on the list as a standard work on Alaska.
+
+
+=32. Alaska, Its Meaning to the World, Its Resources, Its
+ Opportunities.= (1914.) Charles R. Tuttle. A good deal of space is
+ given to the history of the Government railway legislation. It lauds
+ the energy of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce which conducted a
+ successful lobby in Washington city during the anxious months while
+ the Alaska railway bill hung fire in Congress.
+
+
+=33. Alaska, the Great Country.= (1908.) Ella Higginson. This third book
+ is by a lady whom many love to call "our foremost story-teller and
+ sweetest singer." It is most personal, crowded with real adventures,
+ some of them humorous, which the reader shares vividly. Mrs. Higginson
+ says, "No one writer has ever described Alaska. No one writer can ever
+ describe it, but each must do his share according to the spell the
+ country casts upon him." Her description is bright and fascinating.
+ She is now revising it and bringing it up to date for a new edition.
+
+=34. American Fur Trade of the Far West.= (1902.) Hiram Martin
+ Chittenden.
+
+=35. Yellowstone National Park, Historical and Descriptive.= Same
+ author.
+
+ No. 34 is a history of the pioneer trading posts and early fur
+ companies of the Missouri River and Rocky Mountains and of overland
+ commerce.
+
+ No. 35 is the author's best known work. A fifth edition was published
+ in 1905. No man has had a better opportunity to know the Yellowstone
+ than Gen. Chittenden who was in charge of the government work there
+ and no writer more evenly combines the scientific mind of the
+ practical engineer with the charm of a poetic and artistic observer.
+ To read this is next best to seeing the park.
+
+
+=36. The City That Made Itself; A Literary and Pictorial Record of the
+ Building of Seattle.= (1914.) Welford Beaton. Printed in a choice
+ leatherbound silk-lined finely illustrated edition of three hundred
+ copies which readily found their way to the libraries of the
+ well-to-do. The book tells of the hills that have been laid low, of
+ the valleys that have been filled, the tide flats that have been
+ redeemed, of the street car lines and electric development. One
+ chapter on the "Ladies Library Association" shows how women laid the
+ foundation of the public library. Another chapter describes the
+ architecture of the metropolis "from log cabin to sky scraper."
+
+
+=37. Fifteen Thousand Miles by Stage.= (1911.) Carrie Adell Strahorn. A
+ woman's unique experience during thirty years of pathfinding and
+ pioneering from the Missouri River to the Pacific and from Alaska to
+ Mexico. An unusually interesting narration of the days when travel was
+ beset with different if not more dangers than today. The book is put
+ out attractively with 350 illustrations.
+
+
+=38. Guardians of the Columbia.= (1912.) John H. Williams.
+
+=39. The Mountain That Was God.= (1910.) Same author.
+
+=40. Yosemite and the High Sierras.= (1914.) Same author. They are books
+ of rare value, occupying a field by themselves. They are full of
+ fascinating word pictures of mountain scenes. The first is of Mt.
+ Hood, Mt. Adams and Mt. St. Helens. The city librarian of a
+ Massachusetts city wrote to Mr. Williams "We have a radiopticon in our
+ library. I shall mount the illustrations from your book and use the
+ text for short talks on the mountains." No. 39 pictures Rainier which
+ is called "Rainier-Tacoma." John Muir wrote "The glorious mountain is
+ indebted to you for your magnificent book and so is every
+ mountaineer." This contains the "flora of the mountain slopes" by
+ J. B. Flett. The third book is dedicated to the Sierra Club with an
+ introductory poem by Robert Service.
+
+
+=41. The North American Indian.= (1908-1915.) Edward S. Curtis. It is
+ doubtful if any book which has to do with our state has attracted to
+ it so much notice as these ten volumes of Indian lore illustrated by
+ superb photographs taken by the author. He spent years in getting
+ first hand acquaintance with some of the tribes and in securing the
+ pictures which have made him famous. Theodore Roosevelt wrote the
+ preface and J. Pierpont Morgan subscribed $3,000 as an advance
+ guarantee.
+
+
+=42. Rambles in Colonial Byways.= (1900.) Rufus Rockwell Wilson.
+
+
+=43. Romance of Feudal Chateaux.= (1900.) Elizabeth Williams Champney.
+ This is one of a delightful series written in part before the author
+ was a resident of the state. The others are
+
+=44. Romance of French Abbeys.= (1905.)
+
+=45. Romance of Italian Villas.= (1906.)
+
+=46. Romance of Renaissance Chateaux.= (1907.)
+
+=47. Romance of Bourbon Chateaux.= (1907.)
+
+=48. Romance of Roman Villas.= (1908.)
+
+=49. Romance of Imperial Rome.= (1910.) Mrs. Champney also wrote Great
+ Grandmothers' Girls in New France and Three Vassar Girls.
+
+=50. Romance of Old Belgium, from Caesar to Kaiser.= (1915.) Elizabeth
+ Williams Champney and Frere Champney. A choice story full of the
+ romance of truth. The illustrations are from Rubens' paintings,
+ photographs and original pen and ink drawings.
+
+
+=51. Seven Weeks in Hawaii.= (1913.) Minnie Leola Crawford.
+
+=52. Seven Weeks in the Orient.= (1914.) Same author. Vacation letters,
+ written by a business girl who was enjoying her trip to the full, were
+ sent to the mother at home. They were passed on to be read by friends
+ who saw that there was more than a personal interest in them and
+ insisted on their publication. A Chicago publisher readily accepted
+ them. Another vacation trip led to the second volume. The style is
+ sprightly and original and photographs of the author's own taking
+ illustrate both books.
+
+
+=53. Seven Years on the Pacific Slope.= (1914.) Mrs. Hugh Fraser and
+ Hugh C. Fraser. The writers lived in Okanogan County in a little
+ village on the Methow River near its junction with the Columbia. They
+ tell of ordinary events but give a clear picture of the development of
+ that region from 1905 to 1912.
+
+=54. Reminiscences of a Diplomatist's Wife.= (1912.) Either alone or in
+ collaboration Mrs. Fraser has published ten volumes.
+
+
+SCIENTIFIC AND TECHNICAL
+
+=55. Birds of Washington.= William Leon Dawson and John Hooper Bowles.
+ Two elegant volumes describing 372 species. There are three hundred
+ original halftone illustrations. An analytical key for identification,
+ by Lynds Jones.
+
+
+=56. Digest of the Decisions of the Supreme Court of Washington.= Arthur
+ Remington. Two volumes and supplement.
+
+=57. Remington and Ballinger's Annotated Codes and Statutes of
+ Washington.= Two volumes and supplement. (1913.)
+
+=58. Remington's 1915 Codes and Statutes of Washington.= (1916.) Two
+ volumes.
+
+
+=59. Elementary Flora of the Northwest.= (1914.) Theodore Christian Frye
+ and George B. Rigg.
+
+
+=60. Encyclopaedia of Practical Horticulture.= (1915.) Granville Lowther
+ and William Worthington. Three large volumes.
+
+
+=61. English Literature from Widsith to the Death of Chaucer. A Source
+ Book.= (1916.) Allen Rogers Benham. It pictures the literary world in
+ which Englishmen lived from early times to the year 1400 and
+ represents ten years' work by the author.
+
+
+=62. Essentials of Character.= (1910.) Edward O. Sisson. A practical
+ study of education in moral character.
+
+
+=63. Flora of the State of Washington.= (1906.) Charles V. Piper.
+ Published by the Smithsonian Institution. Based on study of plants of
+ the state during a period of twenty years. The most complete and
+ accurate outline of the flora of the state.
+
+
+=64. Flora of the Northwest Coast.= (1915.) Charles V. Piper and Rolla
+ Kent Beattie.
+
+
+=65. Forests and Reservoirs in Relation to Stream-flow.= Hiram M.
+ Chittenden.
+
+=66. Law, Legislative and Municipal Reference Libraries.= John B.
+ Kaiser. An elaboration of lectures delivered before library classes in
+ the University of Illinois. Valuable to the student of library work
+ and to library investigators.
+
+
+=67. Memorabilia Mathematica.= (1914.) Robert Edouard Moritz. It
+ contains no mathematics at all but a remarkable collection of facts
+ and sayings and incidents about mathematics and mathematicians. Of its
+ 2160 selections a surprising number are interesting and many are even
+ humorous.
+
+
+=68. Multiple Money Standard.= (1896.) J. Allen Smith.
+
+=69. Spirit of the American Government.= (1907.) Same author.
+
+
+=70. Outlines of General Chemistry.= (1915.) Horace G. Byers.
+
+
+=71. Parliamentary Procedure.= (1898.) Adele M. Fielde.
+
+=72. Political Primer for New York City and State.= (1900.) Same author.
+ The first book, which had been used by many classes in parliamentary
+ law, was reprinted in Seattle in 1914. Chinese Fairy Stories has also
+ been reprinted. Miss Fielde has issued more than 200,000 pieces of
+ literature intended for the education of Washington women. The most of
+ them have been distributed without cost. Her chosen subjects were
+ social hygiene, temperance, and direct legislation. In earlier years
+ she wrote on the life of the ant.
+
+
+=73. Practical treatise on Sub-Aqueous Foundations.= (1914.) Charles
+ Evan Fowler.
+
+
+=74. Principles of Education.= (1911.) Frederick Elmer Bolton.
+
+
+=75. Refutation of the Darwinian Theory of the Origin of Mankind.= John
+ C. Stallcup.
+
+
+=76. Regulation.= (1913.) W. G. Barnard. A series of essays on political
+ economy. An optimistic view of the difficulties of the economic
+ situation, encouraging the student to believe that "there is a remedy
+ for every evil." There are chapters on land, wages, interest, profits
+ and money.
+
+
+FICTION
+
+=77. Black Bear.= (1910.) William H. Wright.
+
+=78. Grizzly Bear.= (1909.) Same author.
+
+
+=79. The Bridge of the Gods.= Frederick Balch. The writer grew up in
+ Klickitat county. When a boy he resolved to write about the Indians of
+ the Columbia and began collecting material by haunting their camps for
+ days at a time. A lady who has lived in the state sixty-four years
+ says "It is the only story that tells accurately of the early life of
+ those Indians."
+
+
+=80. Chaperoning Adrienne; Through the Yellowstone.= (1907.) Alice
+ Harriman. This lady has distinguished herself in several ways, first
+ as poetess and contributor to magazines, then as book publisher. Other
+ books she wrote are Stories of Montana, Men Two Counties, besides
+ poems and one juvenile work. Her house has a number of first class
+ books to its credit. She brought out Lafcadio Hearne's Temptations of
+ St. Anthony. She took special pride in bringing out books on western
+ topics, as the narratives of the two Dennys and the story which become
+ the opera Narcissa.
+
+
+=81. Club Stories.= (1915.) Members of federated clubs. Written in
+ competition for a prize offered by the State Federation of Women's
+ Clubs. Of twenty-two stories submitted the twelve receiving highest
+ rank were published. The scene of each is laid in Washington so they
+ are full of local color and have a value apart from their literary
+ merit. First prize was won by Mrs. Robert J. Fisher.
+
+
+=82. Every Child.= (1915.) Gertrude Fulton Tooker. The author had
+ previously published a few poems but when she was busier than ever
+ before in her life, caring for two children, she found time to write
+ this pleasing allegory. It deserves a welcome by all people who
+ remember the visions and dreams of child-life.
+
+
+=83. Forest Orchid and Other Stories.= (1902.) Ella Higginson.
+
+=84. From the Land of the Snow Pearls.= (1897.) Same author.
+
+=85. Mariella of Out-west.= (1902.) Same author. These are the stories
+ of one who is widely known as our first story writer. Her name became
+ known when she won, over a thousand competitors, a McClure prize for
+ five hundred dollars. That story was "The Takin' in of old Miss Lane,"
+ 1894. Since then she has written scores of stories which have appeared
+ in many different magazines. She has handled some types which are
+ accepted in the far east as representative of the west and are not
+ complimentary to the good taste and social polish of this longitude.
+ But no author of the state has been ranked so high by the reviewers
+ and critics. All her literary work has been done in this state. She
+ shows constantly increasing strength.
+
+
+=86. Ginsey Krieder.= Sarah Endicott Ober, nom de plume, Huldah Herrick.
+
+=87. Little Tommy, or Ma'am Duffy's Lesson.= (1891.) Same author.
+
+=88. Stacy's Room, or One Year's Building.= (1888.) Same author.
+
+
+=89. Happy Valley.= Ann Shannon Monroe. Tells of homesteading
+ experiences in the sage-brush country where the author lived the life
+ of a settler. She first attracted attention by her story, Making a
+ Business Woman, which appeared in Saturday Evening Post. It is said
+ that she has a hand in the editorial columns of the Ladies Home
+ Journal.
+
+
+=90. Heart of the Red Firs.= (1908.) Ada Woodruff Anderson.
+
+=91. Strain of White.= (1909.) Same author.
+
+=92. Rim of the Desert.= (1914.) Same author. The last of these three
+ has scenes laid in Alaska, on the Sound, at Scenic and in the
+ Wenatchee valley. The development of the desert by irrigation into the
+ fertile fields and the productive orchard, the tragedy of homesickness
+ and starvation in Alaska, the fatal avalanche in the Cascades in the
+ winter of 1909-1910 at Wellington, all are woven into the story. It
+ includes also an attack on the Roosevelt-Pinchot conservation policy
+ which reflects the sentiment somewhat widely held on the Pacific
+ Coast. These features have helped to give the story a wide reading
+ near home but it is a good seller the country over. Very speedily it
+ reached a fourth edition and in its first year sales reached fifty
+ thousand. Mrs. Anderson is the daughter of a Washington pioneer.
+ Those who know her tell us that her home-making and family-raising are
+ as successful as her story-writing. Some one said "She is good for
+ several things and good at them all."
+
+
+=93. The Hired Man.= Florence Roney Weir.
+
+=94. Busher's Girl.= Same author.
+
+
+=95. In Hampton Roads.= (1899.) Charles Eugene Banks. A novel of the
+ Civil War.
+
+=96. Child of the Sun.= (1900.) Same author.
+
+
+=97. Man with a Scar.= Ella Holly and Jessie Hoskins; noms de plume,
+ Warren and Alice Fones. A little story from the Christian Science
+ viewpoint.
+
+=98. Mary of Magdala.= (1909.) Harriette Gunn Roberson. A fascinating
+ story of Rome and Alexandria and Jerusalem. Told with real dramatic
+ power. Mrs. Roberson has for two years edited a page in one of the
+ publications of the Baptist Church under the title, Heart Talks to
+ Girls on Making the Most of Life. As speaker on the Chautauqua
+ platform she has made many friends through the Northwest.

+ Comer.

+=101. A Daughter of Martyrs.= (1906.) Same author. These are short story
+ collections. Mrs. Corner has of late done a good deal of magazine work
+ of a high order, her contributions usually appearing in the Atlantic.
+ Once when asked for a biography she replied, "I really haven't any. I
+ doubt if any one ever got along so comfortably with so little
+ biography since the world began." Of the town where she used to live
+ she said, "It was a kind of a town which drives one into the inner
+ world in search of excitement." When a publisher asked for a
+ photograph she wrote "I have no photographs of myself except some very
+ old ones in storage and no time to get any new ones."
+
+
+=102. A Rocky Mountain Sketch.= Lou Gertrude Diven. It introduces some
+ characters drawn beautifully and clearly as by a master of fiction,
+ yet there is evidence that compels the reader to feel that it is a
+ true narrative. Many stories and essays by Mrs. Diven are in print.
+
+
+=103. Tillicum Tales.= (1907.) Seattle Writers' Club. A collection of
+ short stories contributed by members of the club.
+
+
+=104. Unrest, a Story of the Struggle for Bread.= (1915.) W. R. Parr. A
+ tale of industrial order, the subject treated from a socialistic
+ standpoint.
+
+
+=105. The Woman Who Went to Alaska.= Mrs. Mary L. Kellogg. She has
+ written several books on Alaska under the nom de plume May Kellogg
+ Sullivan. Her home is near Matanuska in Southwestern Alaska where she
+ has spent seven seasons.
+
+
+JUVENILE
+
+=106. Billy Tomorrow.= (1909.) Sarah Pratt Carr.
+
+=107. Billy Tomorrow in Camp.= (1910.) Same author.
+
+=108. Billy Tomorrow Stands the Test.= Same author. The scene of each of
+ the series is laid in Washington.
+
+
+=109. Fingers That See.= (1914.) Nancy Buskett. Dedicated to her blind
+ friends all over the world. It is the story of a blind girl. One
+ learns to love the child who asks, "Can people who see, see 'round
+ corners?" and says, "Lovin' isn't just feelin'. Its sometimes doin'
+ things for people." The author was once musical director in a school
+ for the blind. At another time she edited the Cynthia Grey department
+ in four northwestern dailies.
+
+
+=110. His Tribute.= (1909.) Florence Martin Eastland. Illustrates the
+ value of good cheer.

+ days of the Royal Northwest mounted police of Canada.
+
+
+=116. The Yankee Doodle Book.= (1914.) Gertrude D. Best. (Nom de plume
+ Gertrude Optimus.) For very little people. When the author wanted to
+ buy some Christmas books for her little friends she did not find what
+ she liked. She was not pleased with the idea of filling children's
+ heads with nonsense rhymes, good only to be forgotten, and the crazy
+ pictures of children's books were not all of them to her liking. Like
+ the president of a California University, she too made a book for
+ little people. He did it by writing rhymes still more nonsensical and
+ impossible. She did it by putting into jingle form some facts of
+ United States history. The pictures are attractive and true to period.
+ The rhymes are as catchy as Simple Simon and Jack Horner, but when a
+ child has sung these over for a few weeks he knows for keeps some
+ people and some happenings in American history.
+

+ obliterates the distinction between white and black, between East and
+ West, between the man of yesterday and the man of today." Dr. Gowen is
+ a thorough scholar and a literary artist. During twenty years'
+ residence in the state he has written oriental history, theology,
+ travel, biography, fiction, (Chinese), and poetry.
+
+=146. Outline History of China.= (1913.) Covers the country from the

+ and village life in the early years of Iowa and of Grinnell College.
+
+
+=155. Prophets of the Soul: the Pioneers of Life.= (1915.) Dr. Lester L.
+ West. Sermons, like editorials and addresses and quantities of other
+ good literature, are not included in these outlines even when
+ published in book form. Here is an exception. One Christmas some
+ friends of Dr. West brought out a volume of his sermons,--five of
+ them--under this title. They are the work of a poetic mind, choice in
+ literary finish and with a strong spiritual appeal.
+
+
+=156. Story of a Mother-love.= (1913.) Annette Fitch-Brewer. This tells
+ a remarkable experience. When Mr. and Mrs. Brewer were divorced the
+ court gave the custody of their one child to the father. The mother
+ fought, not the divorce, but for a share at least in the care of her
+ boy. While he was spending a few days with her she fled. For five
+ years she evaded the father's efforts to trace them while he spent
+ large sums in detective work posting photographs of the two all over
+ the country as "fugitives from justice." Finally the arm of the law
+ reached her, living in a little village under an assumed name. The law
+ took the boy from his mother and in her loneliness she wrote this
+ book. It is the experience of a bright observer who wandered thousands
+ of miles with all her senses on the alert.
+
+
+=157. That Something.= (1914.) William Witherspoon Woodbridge. A
+ progressive form of mental science put in a new and original style.
+ The writer believes in himself. What is rarer, he is teaching other
+ people to believe in themselves. The book has met with great results.
+ The publisher reports sales to every state in the union but three and
+ a larger sale than any book ever published west of Chicago.
+
+=158. Skooting Skyward.= (1912.) An earlier book by the same writer met
+ with moderate success, perhaps because of the atrocious Josh Billings
+ spelling which should have been buried with its originator.
+
+
+=159. War or Peace.= (1911.) Hiram Martin Chittenden. A philosophical
+ treatment of the theme. A splendidly optimistic, logical and sane
+ chapter is on "the future hope."
+
+
+=160. Ye Towne Gossip.= (1914.) Kenneth C. Beaton. A sparkling book, the
+ first publication in book form by "K. C. B." He made a wide
+ acquaintance by fourteen years of newspaper work in the state. Then in
+ the daily Post-Intelligencer developed this form which gave him fame.
+ Many readers turned first each morning to his column on the third page
+ to see what "K. C. B." had to say. That little morning story was
+ always an appeal to the heart, sometimes as a fountain of tears,
+ sometimes as a wellspring of joy. A friend writes of him "He is a
+ temperamental freak in that he is an emotional Britisher and is not
+ the least bit ashamed of his emotions."
+
+
+
+

+Lines worth knowing:
+
+
+THE EVERGREEN PINE
+
+ The rivers to the ocean flow,
+ The sunsets burn and flee;
+ The stars come to the darkling sky,
+ The violets to the lea;
+ But I stay in one lone sweet place
+ And dream of the blue sea.
+ The harebell blooms and is away,
+ The salmon spawns and dies;
+ The oriole nests and is on the wing,
+ Calling her sweet good-bys....
+ But I, when blossom and fruit are gone,
+ Yearn, steadfast, to the skies.
+
+ I am a prayer and a praise,
+ A sermon and a song;
+ My leaf-chords thrill at the wind's will
+ To nocturnes deep and strong;
+ Or the sea's far lyric melodies
+ Echo and prolong.
+ When April newly decks my form
+ In silken green attire,
+ I light my candles, tall and pale,
+ With holy scarlet fire--
+ And straight their incense mounts to God,
+ Pure as a soul's desire.
+
+ My branches poise upon the air,
+ Like soft and level wings;
+ My trembling leaves the wind awakes
+ To a harp of emerald strings--
+ Or thro' the violet silences
+ A golden vesper sings.
+ I am a symbol and a sign....
+ Thro' blue or rose or gray;
+ Thro' rain and dark; thro' storms of night;
+ Thro' opaline lights of day--
+ Slowly and patiently up to God
+ I make my beautiful way.
+
+ --Higginson.
+
+
+ENSHRINED
+
+ "My son" ....
+ Her tone was soft with wistfulness--
+ "Would now be twenty-one ...
+ If he had lived."
+
+ A silence fell ...
+ And thought sped swiftly back
+ Through years of fulness and content--
+ Save for one gray thread of loneliness.
+ For she had never parted company
+ With him,
+ Who left her arms bereft
+ Of her man-child.
+
+ "And so,"
+ Again she spoke,
+ "I watch the youths
+ Who grow apace with him in years,
+ And all their winning traits
+ I seize upon, invest my son with them,
+ And love all youth the more
+ Because I too
+ Hold in my heart
+ A vivid memory."
+
+ Again the silence fell ...
+ I turned away--
+ For I had glimpsed the sanctuary
+ Of a mother's soul,
+ In which a spirit was enshrined
+ For all Eternity.
+
+ --Adele M. Ballard
+
+
+ Long hours we toiled up through the solemn wood,
+ Beneath moss-banners stretched from tree to tree;
+ At last upon a barren hill we stood,
+ And, lo, above loomed Majesty.
+
+ --Herbert Bashford
+
+
+NIGHT ON THE MOUNTAIN
+
+ Thou hear'st the star songs clear,
+ When all is silent here,
+ And I, asleep.
+ Spheres, ringing music rare
+ Through upper realms of air,
+ 'Round thy crowned head, may dare
+ Their vigils keep.
+
+ --Bernice E. Newell

+ "Great Mountain, who once to a pagan race meant God,
+ Make us to realize our shame,
+ That, failing to sing praises to thy wondrous form,
+ We stoop to quarrel o'er a name."
+
+ --Anon.
+
+
+ "The mountain-lover does not always gaze at Rainier and Olympus.
+ He has learned that the foot-hills have a charm and an interest of
+ their own. And they too point upward."
+
+ --Club Stories
+
+
+UP, MY HEART
+
+ The dark, dark night is gone,
+ The lark is on the wing,
+ From black and barren fields he soars,
+ Eternal hope to sing.
+
+ And shall I be less brave,
+ Than you sweet lyric thing?
+ From deeps of failure and despair
+ Up, up, my heart, and sing.
+ The dark, dark year is gone;
+ The red blood of the spring
+ Will quicken nature's pulses soon,
+ So up, my heart, and sing.
+
+ --Ella Higginson
+
+
+THAT SOMETHING
+
+A man's success depends alone on That Something. That Something of his
+soul. Abraham Lincoln found it and it warmed the cold floor on which he
+lay and studied. It added light to the flickering glow of the wood fire,
+that he might see to read.
+
+It spurred him on and on and on.
+
+That Something is an awful force.
+
+It made of a puny Corsican the Ruler of the World.
+
+It made of a thin-chested bookkeeper the money king of his age.
+
+It made of Edison the great man of a great country.
+
+It made Carnegie. It made Woodrow Wilson. It made Roosevelt.
+
+It can make you.
+
+And it is now in your soul. Awake it now. "That Something."
+
+"No, it can't be done, it can't be done," murmured the professor. "I
+have drunk deeply of the cup of life, and I am now drinking of the
+dregs. The cup is filled but once, and when it's gone there's nothing
+left but old age and poverty."
+
+"You fool," cried Randolph, leaning forward and shaking the little man
+roughly. "You almost had That Something within your power, and now you
+sing it back to sleep with your silly song of pessimism. It's the false
+philosophy, that such as you sing, which has kept men in the ruts of
+their own digging for centuries past.
+
+Wake man, wake That Something within your soul."

+THE GAME
+
+ "I win," cried Death with a triumphant grin.
+ "My body, yes, but not the soul within."
+
+ --Harriman
+
+
+MY MOTHER--A PRAYER
+
+For the body you gave me, the bone and the sinew, the heart and the
+brain that are yours, my mother, I thank you. I thank you for the light
+in my eyes, the blood in my veins, for my speech, for my life, for my
+being. All that I am is from you who bore me.
+
+For your smile in the morning and your kiss at night, my mother, I thank
+you. I thank you for the tears you shed over me, the songs that you sung
+to me, the prayers you said for me, for your vigils and ministerings.
+All that I am is by you who reared me.
+
+For the faith you had in me, the hope you had for me, for your trust and
+your pride, my mother, I thank you. I thank you for your praise and your
+chiding, for the justice you bred into me and the honor you made mine.
+All that I am you taught me.
+
+For the times that I hurt you, the times I had no smile for you, the
+caresses that I did not give you, my mother forgive me. For your lessons
+I did not learn, for your wishes I did not heed, for the counsels I did
+not obey, my mother, forgive me. Forgive me my pride in my youth and my
+glory in my strength that forgot the holiness of your years and the
+veneration of your weakness,--for my neglect, for my selfishness, for
+all the great debts of your love that I have not paid, mother, sweet
+mother, forgive me.
+
+And may the peace and the joy that passeth all understanding be yours,
+my mother, forever and ever. Amen.

+A NEW LEAF
+
+ He came to my desk with a quivering lip,--
+ The lesson was done,
+ "Dear Teacher, I want a new leaf," he said,
+ "I have spoiled this one."
+ I took the old leaf, stained and blotted,
+ And gave him a new one, all unspotted,
+ And into his sad eyes' smiled;
+ "Do better now, my child."
+
+ I went to the throne with a quivering soul,--
+ The old year was done,
+ "Dear Father, hast thou a new leaf for me?
+ I have spoiled this one."
+ He took the old leaf, stained and blotted,
+ And gave me a new one all unspotted,
+ And into my sad heart smiled,
+ "Do better, now, my child."

+
+
+THE TOILER'S FEAR
+
+ There is one thing I fear.
+ Not death, nor sharp disease,
+ Nor loss of friends I hold most dear,
+ Nor pain nor want,--not these.
+ But the life of which men say,
+ "The world has given him bread,
+ And what gives he to the world as pay
+ For the loaf on which he fed?"

+"I venture to say that if there is one lesson written more plainly than

+
+The good we can think of is always possible.
+
+To dole out a few turkeys at Christmas is good; but to have a social

+
+Real sympathy is motional as well as emotional; energetic, as well as
+pathetic, taking no pleasure in "tears, idle tears."
+
+Some people seem to enjoy giving publicity to their disappointments.

+The only personalities who hold permanently the devotion and admiration

+Golf is an artificial substitute for man's native need for work in the

+Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no
+one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation
+(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without
+permission and without paying copyright royalties. Special rules,
+set forth in the General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to
+copying and distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works to
+protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm concept and trademark. Project
+Gutenberg is a registered trademark, and may not be used if you
+charge for the eBooks, unless you receive specific permission. If you
+do not charge anything for copies of this eBook, complying with the
+rules is very easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose
+such as creation of derivative works, reports, performances and
+research. They may be modified and printed and given away--you may do

+
+THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
+PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at
+http://gutenberg.org/license).
+
+
+Section 1. General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
+paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works. See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
+
+1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided
+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+ the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+ you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is
+ owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+ has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+ Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments
+ must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+ prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+ returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+ sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+ address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+ the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+ you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+ does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+ License. You must require such a user to return or
+ destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+ and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+ Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+ money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+ electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+ of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+ distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark. Contact the

+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+ Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+ Chief Executive and Director
+ gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
