method of disposing Of his money.
The demand for library buildings is
already falling of. There is growing
up in some quarters a feeling that it is
hardly dignified for a prosperous town
to accept such a gilt. In other direc-
tons there is growing up a prejudice
against accepting a library under the
conditions Mr.. Carnegie imposes. for
he only furnishes the building, while
the town must pledge itself to provide
the books and pay the operating e K
penses, thus in some saddling a
heavy burden upon taxpayers.
