AT PUBLIC LIBRARY.
Annual Exhibition Of Books Suit
able for Christmas Gifts.

The Public Library of the District of
Columbia has just installed its annual ex-
hibition Of books suitable for Christmas
gifts. The library has held similar ex-
hibitions in 1904 and 1905. The librarian
states that the expressions Of disappoint-
ment at the failure to hold such an exhi-
bition in 1905 were numerous. During the
last few weeks there have been many in
Quiries at the library as to whether there
would be an exhibition this year.
The purpose of the exhibition is to bring
together a comparatively small and select
group Of books in a quiet room where they
can be studied at leisure. Persons who
have visited the exhibition in other years
state that they find it much easier to
make their selections at the library than
in crowded shop. The Public Library
not only collects good books for reference
use and home circulation, but desires to
encourage the purchase of good books on
the part Of individuals. Books are SO gen.
orally given for Christmas presents that
the public welcomes this aid in Christ
mas shopping.
Every visitor to the exhibition may Sc
cure an attractive printed catalogue of the
books exhibited. Visitors to the exhibition
may mark their catalogues with the items
which they wish to purchase from their
regular booksellers. The books number
about 400 titles about equally divided be-
tween those for adult readers and chill
Qren 8 DOCKS. The BOOKS Tor adult readers
are composed chiefly of publications of
the present season, but include also new
or desirable editions of classic literature
They include books on art. the Bible and
religion, biography, essays and miscelia-
ny. fiction. history, description and travel
music and drama, nature and outdoor
life. practical books, science and verse;
! The list of childrens books contains a
