Four years ago, this present month,
the Library and Reading Room Asso-
citation made its first general appeal to
the public in the form of fair That
enterprise, originated by few enthusi-
astic friends of the institution, with the
idea of raising few hundred dollars
wherewith to pay off debt then stand
ing, and perhaps have something over
for the purchase Of books, grew as it
proceeded into unexpected dimensions
and resulted in realizing for the treasury
nearly twenty-four hundred dollars OF
this sum about four hundred dollars
were consumed in clearing of the in
debtedness, and Of the remainder, one
thousand dollars was put aside as
nucleus for building fund, the balance
being turned into the general treasury
Of the association.
From the proceeds of the Loan Ex-
hibition, held two years ago, another
thousand dollars was added to the
building fund, and with this amount on
hand the new building, now well on
towards completion, was commenced,
the contract price of which is $II,-
1903. deducting from this the amount
of the building fund already alluded to,
$a,oao,oo, left the sum OF $o,oSS.oo to
be raised by subscription, or otherwise.
As some additional money would be
required for fitting up and furnishing, 1t
was decided to start subscription list
for the round sum of $4,000. 90, all
subscriptions being conditional upon
the whole amount being raised. Had
the times been as prosperous and The
business outlook as encouraging as a
year ago, the entire sum would have no
doubt been promptly subscribed with
out a difficulty AS It is, over three
iourths Of the required amount has been
subscribed, and in view Of the fact that
these subscriptions are all dependent
upos the whole $40. 600. 90 being raised,
and that a portion Of them are depend
ent ON It's being raised within certain
time, and also owing to the necessity
Of completing and modefnizing the IL
brary by large addition Of new books,
il has been thought best to appeal TO
the literally of the public in support
Of second grand fair and festival.

The idea of Public Library in
Honolulu has undoubtedly often &C
Cured to many minds. But the germ
OF the present institution was the idea
in the mind of Mr.. William Johnson,
who sought to provide place of resort
that would be free from the baneful in
huences of the liquor saloons. In the
beginning of the month OF February,
1870, he circulated a paper, approving
the establishment OF n Temperance
Reading Room. When IS signatures
had been secured, meeting OF those
interested in this project was held
Mfth Ist Some remarks at that meet
by Mr.. II. l.. Sheldon, in regard to
. Similar undertaking in San Francisco,
induced those assembled to vote for the
organization of society to be called
'The Honolulu Workingmen's Library
Association A Hall and Library
Committee was chosen to solicit dona-
tions of books and secure a room.
Another Committee was appointed to
draft a Constitution and By Laws,
When this Committee reported, March
Sth, the name finally adopted was "The
Honolulu Library and Reading Room
Association" The objects stated in the
Constitution adopted were large enough
TO enlist the sympathies of every intelli-
gent and generous minded person in the
communityi 20s persons had put their
names on the roll as supporters OF the
organization. Not all, however, We're
willing to pay the money asked for mi
tiation fee and annual membership
dues. Some discussion arose also about
the propriety of admitting ladies to
membership. Good sense, as well as
chivalrous appreciation of the worth OF
woman's cooperation prevailed, and
the Library owes its prosperity, II not
its existence, largely to the interest
which the ladies' OF Honolulu have ever
manifested in the objects Of this asso-
citation The first two meetings were
held in the rooms that were then rented
and have ever since been occupied by
the Library Association, Fort Street,
over G. f. Williams furniture store.
The first officers were chosen for only
six months, and were as follows presi-
