REPORT ON LIBRARY.
Despite Financial Needs institution
Grows in Usefulness.

The annual report of the Carnegie Free
Library board was completed yesterday
and was sent to the city council last
night. Like similar reports of the past
the document given out yesterday shows
a deficit of about $50. This is apr Xi-
mately the same as the deficit of the yeas
previous and does not arise from expense
incurred during the year but what is left
of the indebtedness originally incurred.
The library board calls the councils at
tention to the fact that a year ago the
former council made special approprla-
ton of 81 600 for the purchase of books
and shelving, and that this year the boari
has received no such donation. For this
reason it is pointed out that the number
of books has not been increased to any
extent this year. The board further
points out that Notwithstanding the finaI-
cial difficulties the library has made sub
stantial progress during the vast year.
The annual report of the librarian, Miss
Grace w. Harris, attached to the report
of the board, contains some interesting
facts. 1t states that the library is be-
coming essential to the students and SER
ious readers of the community. The num-
Der of books is now 6,O52. There are now
twenty newspapers and fifty-seven mag
aZines in the reading room and the num-
Der of readers registered at the library
is 4S6S. The circulation of books for
home reading for the year was 50. 6l22,
an increase over the previous year.
