"Last October says "The Worcester Cfsss9 ca
zette," "the Governor appointed the members OF IN
State Commission on Free Public Libraries, under a.

that only 1O3 out Of the 351 towns and cities q s
Commonwealth were without public library, and eseA
In some of the towns lacking them there were small -
ISOLATION libraries. Today, owing In great measure
the activity Of this commission there remain less "
seventy out Of the total Of ISL towns, which ha~
not taken steps in town meetings or otherwise
establish public libraries. II may also be noted ~
