1t will be seen that in the selection of new
books the wants of the young have been taken
into consideration, and as a good many boys
and girls have been attracted to the Library, it
was deemed advisable to encourage them and
others by making selections most likely to please
their juvenile tastes, and for this reason this
new feature has been introduced, which, it is
hoped, will prove acceptable to the little
folk" and induce them to seek pleasure and
information at the same time BY fostering a
taste for literature.
Under its present management, and with the
assistance of the Librarian, the institution was
never in more Furnishing condition, and now
that it has been placed in position that will
enable it to be more generally appreciated, 1t is
hoped that those who have not as get subscrlb-
ed will hesitate 30 longer, but cheerfuily lend
their aid to support and keep alive the ncreas-
ed interest in the Library.
By arrangements. Just completed,the Library
will be furnished with all the latest works, his
torcal, scientific and of fiction, and the reading
public will thus have, by a very slight expen-
diture, advantages that otherwise would cost
them a considerable outlay.
