-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

-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.

-
-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 information page at www.gutenberg.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. 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
-contact links and up to date contact information can be found at the
-Foundation's web site and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact
-
-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 www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-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: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For forty 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:
-
- 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.

-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.

-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

-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating

-particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate

-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.

- www.gutenberg.org
-
-This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary

-
-LINES WROTE IN SCHOOL WHILST I SHOULDST HAVE BEEN STUDYIN' MY LESSON
-
-
- I've just about madest up my mind to be
- A poet such as Shakespeare and the rest
- Of them big literary gents, and dressed
- In velvet clothes, write up the things I see
- In some grand style to show that Browning he
- Hast been done up! And when plain folks request
- My autograph, then, throwin' out my chest,
- I'llst make them wish that they wast great like me!
-
- I'm tired dwellin' midst surroundin's where
- Cheap things art always waitin' to be done:
- I'dst rather loaf and dream and have long hair
- Like all great poets dost: and, oh! what fun,
- To dash off lays and sell them, then and there,
- Whenever I'llst be needin' any "mon."
-
-
-
-
-THOUGHTS THOUGHT WHILST THINKIN' ABOUT MARY AND HER PET LAMB
-
-
- Full oft I've read how Mary's lamb didst go
- Where'er his kind and lovin' mistress went,
- As if the little creature wast content
- If it couldst only be where she wast. Oh,
- I realize what madest it hanker so
- To be in school that day: it surely meant
- It loved her! Yet, that mean old teacher bent
- On bossin' things--he didst not seem to know.
-
- Sometimes I get to wishin' I might be
- A little lamb like Mary's, fond and true,
- With Susan Sanderson as Mary, see?
- We'd play amidst the clover sweet with dew,
- And everywhere that she wast there'd be me,
- And if she wasn't, I'dst be elsewhere, too.
-
-
-
-
-LINES WROTE WHILST THINKIN' ABOUT HOW PA ACTS WHEN DRESSIN' UP
-
-
- Whilst pa and ma art dressin' up to go
- To church or somewhere, so I've heard ma tell
- The neighbor women, pa tears 'round pell-mell
- And turns things upside down, and wants to know
- Who hid his clothes! and makes ma stop and show
- Him where to find them. Ma she know'st full well
- They're where he's kept them since he earnest to dwell
- In our house: that's been twenty years or so.
-
- And when ma's donest her level best to try
- To help pa so he wilt not fuss and fret,
- And found his clothes, shoes, collar, cuffs and tie,
- And there ain't nothin' more for her to get,
- Pa looks at her and with an awful sigh
- Says: "Thunderation! Ain't you ready yet?"
-
-
-
-
-LINES WROTE WHILST REALIZIN' WE OUGHTST TO BE KIND TO DUMB BRUTES
-
-
- Wise William Goat, familiarly addressed
- As "Billy!" Thou art an amusin' brute,
- For thou hast some traits that are truly cute
- And others, still, so it must be confessed,
- That I hast learned in sorrow to detest.
- 'Tis fun to see thee, in thy manner mute,
- When boys dost tease thee, give some one a "beaut,"
- Yet, he who's "it" deems thee a sorry jest.
-
- Yestreen I met some other boys, and we,
- At thy expense, wert havin' much delight
- Till thou got'st 'round to where I didst not see
- That thou wast headed my way. Sorry plight!
- That's why I write this standin'--woe is me!--
- And slept'st upon my bosom all last night.
-
-
-
-
-SONNET WROTE WHILST THINKIN' OF OUR PARENTS IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN
-
-
- O Adam and O Eve! How very nice
- It must have been to live where you wast at.
- No neighbors anywhere with whom to spat,
- Nor any one to give you free advice.
- Ma says she'd gladly pay 'most any price
- For such a lay-out. And she's certain that
- Because there wert no servants in your flat
- Is how you camest to call it "Paradise."
-
- And pa says that if Eve hadst dressed the way
- Our women do we shouldst have missed the fate
- Of goin' forth into the world to stray,
- For she'd be somewhere, still, inside the gate
- Delayin' things, as women dost to-day,
- A-tryin' for to pin her hat on straight.
-
-
-
-
-LINES WROTE WHILST SMARTIN' FROM PUNISHMENT RECEIVED FOR LYIN'
-
-
- O Washington! (O Reader, hast thou not
- In readin' high-toned poems wrote for show,
- Observed how many of them start with "O?"
- Well, anyhow, there is an awful lot.)
- The noble deeds thou wrought'st are not forgot
- But serve to make thy name, where'er we go,
- A household word. If all they say is so
- Thou didst some mighty clever stunts. That's what!
-
- And yet, thy fame belongest to thy dad;
- Thou shinest by reflected light, forsooth,
- For thou 'rt the only boy that ever had
- A pa who, when his son dared tell the truth
- About some kiddish prank didst not get mad
- And lamm him! O thou heaven-protected youth!
-
-
-
-
-THOUGHTS THOUGHT ABOUT MA'S NOTIONS REGARDIN' LOVE AND HOUSE-KEEPIN'
-
-
- When sister Maymie saidst she'd like to learn
- To sweep the keys of a piano-forte,
- Ma she spoke up and cut her right off short
- And saidst she'd rather that a girl of her 'n
- Shouldst know just how to sweep a room, nor spurn
- A poor but honest man, for that's the sort
- Pa wast. And ma insists no woman ort
- To spend more money than a man canst earn.
-
- A kid-gloved dandy with a stove-pipe hat
- Wed ma's proud cousin. Say, but he wast sly!
- "Our home shalt be next thing to Heaven!" That
- Wast what he vowed. Ma says that that's no lie
- For they art packed into a stingy flat
- Four stairways up, and plumb against the sky!
-
-
-
-
-THOUGHTS THOUGHT WHILST THINKIN' OF PEARY ON A HOT SUMMER DAY
-
-
- O Peary! With the scorchin' summer here
- And everybody payin' double price
- For little weeny, teeny bits of ice,
- It dost no longer seem so very queer
- That thou shouldst have the bravery to steer
- Thy ship up North where it is cool and nice.
- I'll bet you smile whilst thinkin' thou hast twice
- The fun we're havin' at this time of year.
-
- And, say! old boy, since thou dost understand
- The pole is an imaginary spot,
- Why not "imagine" thou hast found it and
- Of time and trouble save an awful lot?
- Couldst others track thee to that frozen land
- And prove thou didst not find it? I guess not!
-
-
-
-
-THOUGHTS THOUGHT WHILST THINKIN' OF A THANKSGIVIN' DAY TURKEY
-
-
- O Eagle! emblem of my country, thou,
- Who art the boss of every other bird,
- My muse, to find the highfalutin word
- With which to name thee, dost not know just how.
- Yet 'tis not thee who hast, I must allow,
- My patriotic breast the deepest stirred,
- And they who planned our country's banner erred
- In makin' thee the sign to which we bow.
-
- For whilst, O Eagle, thou dost dare to climb
- The highest mountain peak and greet the sun,
- It is the turkey that dost nearest rhyme
- With all the lofty thrills that through us run;
- He beats thee to a standstill every time,
- For, stuffed and roasted--say! he takes the bun!
-
-
-
-
-SONNET WROTE WHILST THINKIN' OF MY SISTER MAYMIE'S HOMELY BEAU
-
-
- O Love! 'Tis saidst that thou art blind. Alas!
- I didst not think that it wast truly so
- Until I saw my sister Maymie's beau
- Who's awful stingy and as green as grass!
- How love canst make such guys as he is pass
- For something beautiful, I dost not know.
- Hadst I my way, you bet! he'd stand no show
- Of settin' in our parlor wastin' gas.
-
- He steals things, too! Last night whilst in a nook
- Of our dark hall I heardst him say: "Alack!
- I must steal one!" This morn I went'st to look
- And found'st all our umbrellas in the rack,
- And so I guess whatever 'twast he took,
- My sister Maymie madest him give it back.
-
-
-
-
-LINES WROTE WHILST RECOVERIN' FROM AN ACCIDENT CAUSED BY A HORNET
-
-
- O Hornet! When I think'st what thou canst do
- To make strong men just hump themselves and run,
- Men who wouldst boldly face a ten-inch gun
- But lack the "sand" to halt whilst you pursue,
- And deem'st thy stinger something they wouldst rue,
- I've wondered if, when things that weigh a ton
- Flee from thy wrath, thou dost not deem it fun
- To chase folks that are so much bigger 'n you.
-
- Didst I accordin' to my size possess
- The means for gettin' even thou dost own,
- 'Twouldst be great sport to tackle--well, I guess!--
- A boy 'most any size, and hear him moan
- As I didst when thou gavest me that caress
- From something hotter than the torrid zone!
-
-
-
-
-LINES WROTE ON A SUMMER DAY WHILST THINKIN' OF A SODA-FOUNTAIN
-
-
- When I'm a man I shalt not care to be
- The President of these United States:
- I'dst rather be the drug-store clerk who waits
- On people at the soda-fountain. He
- Hast lots more first-class fun, it seems to me,
- For whilst the public dost not get rebates
- On soda, he canst get it at cut rates,
- And lots of times, I'll bet, he gets it free!
-
- Of course, I know it must be pretty fine
- To hear the brass bands and the big bass drums
- Come marchin' by the White House all in line
- And playin': "See, the Conquerin' Hero Comes!"
- And, yet, no presidential job in mine:
- The soda clerk's the one that gets the plums!
-
-
-
-
-LINES WROTE AFTER BEIN' SCOLDED FOR NOT DOIN' AS CHILDREN USED TO
-
-
- I yearn'st to live to be ten times as old
- As wast Mathusalem, the patriarch:
- Then when some older person durst remark:
- "When I wast young the children weren't so bold
- And always loved to do as they wert told,
- And went to bed soon after it wast dark;"
- I'llst say to him: My errin' friend, now hark
- To one who wilt no longer hear thee scold:
-
- I knew thy great-great-great-grand-parents when
- They wert sly youngsters vexin' their poor nurse,
- And children now art good as they wert then!
- They always have been stubborn, mean, perverse,
- And always wilt be, since, alas! like men,
- They're just as heaven makes them--only worse!
-
-
-
-
-LINES WROTE ON READIN' HOW CLEOPATRA MADE MEN ACT VERY FOOLISH
-
-
- To-day I readst in an old history book
- How Cleopatra used to make men do
- Just any fool thing that she wanted to
- By givin' them a "lovey-dovey" look.
- Time wast, long, long ago, when I'dst have shook
- My head and saidst the story wast not true,
- But that, alas! that wast before I knew
- Miss Susan S. who hast my fancy took.
-
- To-day I hadst an apple I'dst have not
- Let any boy in school taste, but when she
- Asked couldst she have a bite and took a lot,
- I didst not mind at all, for, oh, to me,
- Where she hadst bit hadst somehow made the spot
- Taste awful sweet! Thus dost love rule us. See?
-

-SONNET WROTE WHILST THINKIN' WHAT I WOULDST DO WITH CARNEGIE'S GOLD
-
-
- O Great Carnegie! With thy wealth, oh, my!
- I dost not know exactly what I'd do,
- But seem'st to me I'd have more fun than you
- Art havin' with it. Anyhow, if I
- Hadst money, as they say, "to burn," I'd try
- To burn it here, for, oh! 'twouldst make me blue
- To think I'd have to smell it burnin' through
- The endless eons of the by and by!
-
- And you can bet if I hadst gold in bins
- As thou hast got, in quantities so vast
- Thou canst not spend it, I'd buy diamond pins
- And soda water to the very last!
- And I'd be sorry that I wast not twins
- So I couldst spend my fortune twice as fast.
-
-
-
-
-SOME THOUGHTS THOUGHT WHILST HAVIN' TO BATHE IN A BATH-TUB
-
-
- I don't like bathin' in a bath-tub. Say!
- It's no more like a good old swimmin'-hole
- Where you can dive right in and splash and roll
- Or anything you please, than work's like play!
- Some afternoon of a hot summer day
- When thou from school and poky things hast stole,
- Oh, ain't it good for heart and brain and soul
- To plunge right in and swim your own sweet way?
-
- I pity folks who bathe where they must wear
- A bathin'-suit! I wouldst have none in mine.
- Give me a good old shady corner where
- Nobody's lookin'. That's what I call "fine!"
- And when I bathe in this sawed-off affair,
- The swimmin'-hole's the thing for which I pine.

-LINES WROTE IN SCHOOL WHILST THROWIN' GLANCES AT SUSAN SANDERSON
-
-
- "Oh, what is love?" the poet asks. I guess
- I'dst better tell him. When a girl's cheeks seem
- As fascinatin' to you as ice-cream,
- And though snub-nosed and freckled, more or less,
- She's still the phantom of pure loveliness
- That ever and anon athwart your dream
- Comes stealin', whilst you scheme and scheme and scheme
- To be where she is, thou 'rt in love! Oh, yes!
-
- When you keep thinkin' how you'dst squeeze her hand
- If sometime thou couldst be her little glove,
- And if thou feelst that thou wouldst like to stand,
- With only just the frosty stars above,
- In some big snowdrift 'neath her window and
- Stay there forever, then thou art in love!
-

-
-THOUGHTS THOUGHT WHILST MOWIN' THE LAWN ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON
-
-
- O Circus Day! So very brief art thou,
- From early morn when first doth rise the tent
- Till midnight comes and all the show hath went;
- Thou 'rt like a swiftly passin' dream. Oh, how
- I wish the laggin' tasks that wet the brow
- With per-spi-ra-tion (sweat is what I meant)
- Would haste as thou dost haste. How different
- This world wouldst be from what we find it now!
-
- Or 'twouldst be better still if time wouldst pass,
- Whilst laughin' at the antics of the clown,
- As slow as run'st the sands within the glass
- Whilst I, 'neath sun that almost melts me down,
- Must mow the lawn. O Fate, why must, alas!
- Thy smile be so much shorter than thy frown?

-SONNET WROTE ON THE FLY-LEAF OF MY GRAMMAR DURIN' SCHOOL HOURS
-
-
- O Education! Maybe thou art all
- Our teachers tell us, but just let me say
- That if my folks wouldst let me have my way,
- From early Spring till frost comes in the Fall
- I'dst be outdoors, you bet! a-playin' ball
- Or otherwise enjoyin' each fine day.
- It seem'st a shame for boys to have to stay
- Like culprits shut in by a prison wall!
-
- I guess if you get rich folks wilt not care
- If you don'tst know your grammar to a T,
- For baby boys, you'llst find 'most everywhere,
- Art named for uncles who hast money, see?
- Though they hain'tst got no learnin' they canst spare
- Nor never spell their 'taters with a p.
-
-
-
-
-THOUGHTS THOUGHT ON HEARIN' FOLKS FIND FAULT WITH THE WEATHER
-
-
- I love cold winter weather with the snow
- A-driftin' on the walks I hast to clear,
- And frost a-bitin' nose and cheek and ear,
- With the thermometer "away below."
- I also love the summer when it's so
- Red-hot that clothes next to you all "adhere"
- And everybody's frantic, pretty near,
- And sayin' things that hot folks dost, you know?
-
- I love both seasons, but I wish I could
- Enjoy them whilst they're with us, for, you see,
- It's winter when the summer seem'st so good,
- And summer when the winter pleases me.
- But, somehow, I have never understood
- Why either of them whilst it's here's "n. g."

-LINES WROTE AFTER SEEIN' SHAKESPEARE'S HAMLET FROM AN UPPER GALLERY
-
-
- O Shakespeare! Thou whom'st all the world dost think
- Hast written some good things, I, too, wouldst pay
- My best respects to thee; yet, wouldst I say
- That whilst I like thee yet I dost not shrink
- From tellin' thee that thou art on the "blink"
- And very sadly out of date to-day.
- Still, if thou'lt follow my advice thou may
- Still count as one of us, and get more "chink."
-
- Your plays ain't any good the way they stand:
- Thou ought'st to tone them up with something nice:
- Some coon-songs, fire-engines, blood-hounds and
- A swingin' bridge and chunks of floatin' ice
- Wouldst make your old plays draw to beat the band,
- And folks wouldst crowd your show at any price!

-SONNET WROTE WHILST RETROSPECTIVELY CONTEMPLATIN' MY FIRST CIGAR
-
-
- Oh, woe is me! and other things like that!
- Yestreen I soughtst to smoke my first cigar:
- It gav'st my system a tremendous jar!
- I didst not have the gumption of a gnat.
- All night I couldst not tell where I wast at.
- I wish I knew just what those cheap smokes are;
- It seem'st to me they're made of glue and tar.
- Ah, me! I'm weaker than a half-starved cat.
-
- Oh, let them smoke henceforth, say'st I, who will,
- For who am I that I shouldst dare condemn
- Their vile tobacco? I have hadst my fill:
- Let others have it; I sha'n'tst envy them,
- For I'llst not never smoke no more until
- I'm ten times older than Mathusalem!

-
-SONNET WROTE WHILST THINKIN' ABOUT A VACATION SPENT ON A FARM
-
-
- O Farmer, independentest of all
- Mankind art thou! I know, because, last year
- I spent my whole vacation, pretty near,
- On Uncle Eben's farm, and though I'm small,
- I hoed the corn and beans, and helped him haul
- And stack his hay. I'dst work until I'dst fear
- I'dst just drop down and end my sad career
- Before they'dst give the welcome dinner call.
-
- My uncle dost not weigh his words with care,
- For once he told me that I wast a shirk;
- But I wouldst rather breathe the country air
- Than be a shut-in office-boy or clerk;
- For I found out whilst visitin' out there
- That I like farmin', but I hate farm work.

-
-LINES COMPOSED AFTER SEEIN' A BOOK FULL OF BYRON'S LOVE LETTERS
-
-
- One reason why I'm 'most afraid to get
- So famous like we poets always do,
- Is that they'll print my spoony letters, too,
- As is the way with all of us who let
- Our fancies caper. Hadst I thought whilst yet
- Unknown, I'dst be a poet, quite a few
- Endearin' words with which I soughtst to woo
- More girls than one I'dst not have wrote, you bet!
-
- If Susan Sanderson shouldst find I sent
- The valentine I saidst I wrote for her
- To Jane Jones, too, the thirty cents I've spent
- For soda water's wasted, I'dst infer:
- Why must we poets do things we'll repent?
- And oh! why thus didst me and Byron err?

-SONNET WROTE AFTER HEARIN' A YOUTH ORATIN' ABOUT "CASABIANCA"
-
-
- O Boy, that stood'st upon the burnin' deck
- And gotst thyself in our school readers and
- The "Whoop-'er-up" school speakers of our land
- Because thou wouldst not leave that sinkin' wreck,
- Oh, don'tst thou think if thou hadst saved thy neck
- And wisely cut and run to beat the band,
- Thou couldst have later done things still more grand?
- Alas! too soon didst death thy valor check!
-
- Oh, didst thou stay because thou couldst not swim?
- Or wast it fame for which thy heart didst yearn?
- Of course thou gotst a name time canst not dim,
- But seemst to me that all I canst discern
- In thy foolhardy, stickin'-to-it whim
- Is that thou deemed the world hadst boys to burn.

-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 information page at www.gutenberg.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 www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-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: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
-works.
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
-concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
-with anyone. For forty 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:
-
- 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.
