THE TOGUS LIBRARY,
Many improvements in the Home OF
Over Ten Thousand Books,

Inc Library building, on which ex-
tensive alterations and repairs have
just been completed. is now one of the
most commodious ana best equipped
buildings for the purnose to be found
IN any of the National homes, or else
where outside Of the larger cities.
The building, which was originally
built in 1871, for a thcater, was made
over into a library when the present
Opera House was completed in 1891. Ii
was (: great improvement over the
room. now Ward L. X Co, previously
used for library, and seemed then to
be of ample capacity to fully meet all
future requirements Of the Home.
This did not prove to be the case, how
ever, Tor the patrons of the library in
creased steadily, partly Oh account of
increased membership in the Home,
and partly because as the members
grew Older they took less outdoor ex-
erciSC, fewer long walks through the
fields ana woods, and naturally turned
to the library where they were sure of
finding something Interesting to read
that would enable them 10 pass q few
hours pleasantly each day. 1t soon
became apparent that more room was
a necessity and that many repairs
must be done. During the past sum
mcr ana fall this has been accom-
plish"d by taking into the library the
basement story of the building that had
previously been used for other pur-
poses, thereby doubling the floor area.
The entire main floor is now used for a
reading room. A new writing room is
located in the basement, of the same
floor area al, WAS the old reading room.
The stack room IS also located in the
basement, and is so arranged as to be
used for Il delivery room as well. The
librarians office is also located in the
basement ana is well fitted up for the
purpose.
The exterior Of the building has not
been changed except on the west side,
where additional windows. porches,
etc. have been added, making this side
of the building, which was formerly the
rear, the most attractive part, especial
~ when the building is fully lighted in
the evening. About seven thousand
dollars have been paid out for these
repairs and the money was certainly
used for Il good purpose.
Books are issued three days a week
to any member who wishes to take
them to his quarters, which many do,
