SPECIAL LOAN LIST.
In addition to the above new books,
fourteen volumes of recent fiction have
been placed on supplementary or
special loan list, to be taken out at
rate of two cents day. This method is
being adopted by Libraries, partly to pro-
vide some books not included in the ac-
cession list, partly to duplicate books
that are much in demand. 1t is not pos
sible for any free library to furnish all the
books that people want and as fast as
they want them; but in this direction
the plan of supplementary list at a
small daily rate has proved very popular
in some places. If it should appear that
those who take Athenaum books, like this
auxiliary arrangement, it will be con-
tinued and developed. Inasmuch as the
borrower pays rental the circulation
of books on this list will not be restrict.
ed to this town, as by charter deed, all
others have to be. The special loan list
is as follows

The record OF current events at the
Ath.nRum includes the additional items
OF mutllatlon and theft OF magazines,
detaelng OF statuary, puncture and rip
ping OF valuable paintings. To heather
man things OF this sort might seem pecu
liar. He In his bllndn IS bows down to
restraint and fear of trespass. But in a
land OF enlightenment and of liberty there
are those who find emancipation from
such bondage to primitive ideas. Open
doors, freedom OF the house, access to
current periodicals, to the worlds litera-
ture and art, offer exceptional opportu-
mites for the civilized man to dlsport
himself in the exercise of inalienable lib
critics. What privilege it is to cut pic
lures out OF other peoples magazines or
to walk OIL with lew of them in ones
pocket; to put fantastic touches on mar.
bic figures and air holes through canvas
landscapes and madonnas. This is free
country. Individual initiative is a mas.
tertul thing. Maybe its ultimate posi-
bil'lies have not been realized even yet.
Meanwhile the Athenaum is trying to
carry out the will of one who wished we'll
to all his fellow citizens and founded an
institution for their perpetual benefit.
