THE PUBLIC LIBRARY.

The work Of the library committee
OF the Civic League in It's effort to
build up the patronage Of the Public
Library is meeting with general ap.
proval throughout the city and at the
end OF. the present campaign for mem.
bership there will be hundreds of new
names. added to the permanent yearly
membership.
The library committee not being fa'
miliar with the true conditions of the
libraries in the city anticipated that
It would have considerable job on its
bands but upon investigation found
that Fairmont is In much better con.
dition as far as public library is con.
cerned than most cities OF this size.
1t was found that the city had a
comfortable building, three stories
high, very centrally located and that
there was about two thousand books
kept for the public which could b.
read by the payment OF only fifty
cents per year by individuals, or one
dollar per year for families with the
privilege Of keeping out three books
at one time.
II Fairmont had no such building
Z there would be a general clamor for
a library building. Some would be ad.
yocating Carnegie building and 9th.

ing 1t from the fact that 1t would sad.
die very heavy obligation upon the
public to keep 1t up and be so bur.
dened with red tape that It would be a
very expensive proposition. Some
; would be advocating the building o.
the city's own library building and 1t
would cost a very large sum of mon.
ey to build such a building upon a 10.

have better public cooperation and

OF the fact that II is indeed and In
fact Public Library for the use and
benefit Of any and all people. Many
have had the erroneous idea that 1t
was a w. c. T. U. institution for the
PRONUNCIATION Of temperance doctrine

erature. and while this would not be a
work toSbe criticised. 1t would be too
T narrow in It's scope to meet the ap
