Keys Are Delivered.

Mr.. Spencer concluding, addressed
Mr.. John G. Williams, mayor of the
city of Oskaloosa, and gave the keys
of the new building into his posses
sion. Mr.. Williams briefly expressed
the pleasure it afforded him to re-
ceive the keys of the institution in
an official capacity. He spoke of
the hard and faithful service and con-
scientious effort performed by the
custodians Of the work, 'and this
is the splendid result. 1t represents
money expended, labor and thought"
Mr.. Williams explained how the state
had provided that the administration
of library must be in separate
hands from those of the city legisla-
tors and for this purpose separate
board had been constituted. He
therefore turned to Mr.. Jno. A. Kali
bach, president of the Library Board,
gentleman whose interest in the
library has been paramount to per-
sonal affairs. The keys of the build
ing were consigned to the keeping of
Mr.. Kalbach.
Mr.. Kalbach Takes Keys.
John A. Kalbach, president of the
Library Board and chairman of the
Board of Trustees, accepted the keys
of the library and spoke briefly. The
gentleman gave the assurance that
no efforts would be spared on the
part of the Board to make the library
come up to the fullest expectations
Of the public and to be power for
permanent good in the city. The ex-
cellence Of the building was touched
upon,-"second to none Of its size in
the staate or country" and the prom
Use was given that it should serve
the purpose for which it was intend
ed. The acceptance Of the trust was
in a simple, informal way, but Mr..
Kalbach was sincere in his remarks
and carried the weight of conviction
with every word.

Dedicatory Address.


The dedicatory address was deliv-
cred by President Homer H. Seerley,
of the Iowa State Normal School.
Mr.. Seerley was formerly superin-
tendent of the city schools of Oska-
loosa, and was one of the early pro-
motors of the public library. He
said:
"This is a notable event in the an
nails of this city as it recognizes the
tremendous influence upon the mass
es Of the printed page. This public
assemblage dedicates to the common
people temple of literature and
learning. This beautiful building
will stand for years to come as a
monument Of the faith and the pur-
pose of the men and the women of
this decade who really build better
than they know. There is worthy
pride to-day, in the structure itself,
as an ornament to this city and as
center of great public work al
ready in progress, but there will be-
more pride hereafter in the intellect
and the character that has here had
the opportunity to be trained and de-
veloped into power.
In a democracy it must be recog-
nized that institutions are results,
not causes, they are well settled pol
icies Of progress, not transitory theo-
ries Of hopes yet to be realized. The
demand of the masses for a larger
part in civilization has been heard
and these better privileges and op-
portunities for education have been
provided. The worker for the COM
mon good in our civilization must
learn that the great principle Of CO.
operation brings blessings to all as
by the real application of this prin-
ciple, the individual mans rights are
regarded as he is allowed to enter
upon his heritage of an intelligent
citizenship. Schools and libraries
are, therefore, the attempts of de-
mocracy to teach, the true value Of
freedom, integrity, prosperity and
manliness, working out gradually
thereby the plan of a new civilization
tnaC THIS special type ana spirit OF
free institutions demand The libra
ry of the community is simply an
agent for the advancement Of the pro-
gress and the success Of democracy
because the foundations Of our pros
perity and Of our liberty depend en-
tirely upon the capability the eficien-
cy and the character Of the hosts OF
individuals who constitute the state.
Men are always individuals, not
equals nor duplicates. They are per-
sonalities, not repetitions, They each
