(This is, of course, to encourage people to give money to charities. ) One day the secretary of a world-famous charity had a telephone call from a tax officer, who said, “A certain gentleman who says that his name is Howard Vine claims(聲明) to have given your society $15000 in gifts last year. I am telephoning to find out whether he did in fact do so. ”

　　“Howard Vine, did you say?” answered the secretary of the charity cautiously (慎重的). “Wait a moment, please. I'll have a look in our records. ”

　　After half a minute, the tax officer heard the secretary's voice again. “Mr. Howard Vine hasn't given us $15000 yet, ” the secretary said delightedly, “but he's going to now !”

1．How can people in the United States reduce their tax?

2．Why does the government allow this?

3．What had Mr. Vine done?

In 1638, John Harvard donated some money and about four hundred books to a new university. This was the beginning of the library at Harvard University. The gift was so important that the university was named for John Harvard.

Thomas Bray began the first free lending library in the late 1600s. He set up more than 30 or these libraries in the American colonies. However, the idea for this kind of free library ended when Bray died in 1730. In 1731, Benjamin Franklin and some friends started the first subscription library in the United States. In a subscription library people pay money to become members, but they may borrow the books without paying again.

In the United States, every child had a free education. This idea soon led to free libraries. One of the first libraries that used tax money to buy books was a library in Peterborough, New Hampshire. This library was set up in 1833.
