thousand in the number Of books cir
culated over February, 1905. The week
ending Feb. 10 showed total of 1,031
books circulated during the week-the
highwater mark for the library.
When the new children's room is
opened larger increase is looked for.
A long and carefully selected list Of
books for the new room has been or
dered. In compiling this list the branch
librarian has received the help of the
principals Of the East Side schools and
has also used the lists compiled by
other libraries. Furniture for the new
