THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.
ItH

Tht Kntlie Lint.
lIoohH--
Ever since this library has been start
ed u number of ludi -, h-idlng a deep in
terest in anything that would add to the
advancement of our city, have been
making Htrenuous und successful efforts
toward tho enlurging und advancement
of the public library. The large number
of lending works, by the beat authore,
which they have nlreudy secured, is
sufficient proof of the success they are
having, und us the number of putrons is
growing daily, there is no reason why
still more flattering results may not bo
expected in the future
It Is a calamity, but nevertheless true,
that a vaat majority of people are not
familiar with any of the works of the
great English or American authors, nnd
if they but reulized the benefit they
would derive from perusing good books,
as well as the plousuro of bo doing, they
would not be slow in remedying their
past negligence.
Although It bus been running but
a short time aa a public library, still
u number of books have been added to
the nlreudy well-selected list, and with
the neaistuuee of our townspeople this
number will greatly increase. There
aro no charges for joining tho library,
and it coats but twenty-five cents a
month to have the use of books. No
one will miss bo small an amount month
ly, and at the same time these amounts
put together will do much towarda pur
chasing now books.
The following is n list of the books al
ready in the library :
