1T IS TWO YEARS OLD
The Public Library on Feb. Z Will
Celebrate Its Second Anniversary.
THEN THE WORK WILL BEGIN
New Membership Cards Must Be
Issued-There Are Many Pa
trons-The Institution Sur
prises the fasteners.

The Butte free public library Will nave |
been opened two years on Feb. I, which |
is a week from next Friday. and about |
900 membership cards will have to be re-
newed on that date. The memberships are |
issued only for two years and the 900 peo- |
pie who took out cards when the library 1
opened will have to renew them II they /
wish TO take out books after FEB. I. |
Membership cards will expire in great /
numbers during the next few weeks and /
the librarian and his assistants will be
kept very busy in issuing renewals. AS
has always been the rule, the guarantors /
must be approved by the board of library |
trustees.
During the two years that the library
has been open its growth in popularity
has surprised even its warmest friends.
1t is the city's greatest pride and the
wcnderment of eastern visitors, whose
admiration for the handsome building and
its valuable contents is mingled with sur
prise at finding such an institution in a
trough mining camp" as Butte is still
popularity regarded in the East. The libra
rvs membership list has shown steady
and gratifying increase and the large
reading room has become almost too
small to accommodate those who spend
pleasant and profitable evenings there.
Librarian John f. Davies has shown him
self at all times to be the right man in
the right place and it is gratifying fact
that the factional troubles which at ono
time threatened to end in his resignation
are at an end. His biennial report will
present some interesting figures.
