Modern Methods in Vogue.

The subscription libraries to which
they had been accustomed to go to sup
plement their own collections of books
were quiet, roomy places in charge of
some chosen acquaintance, and it was
rather hard to readjust to the new order
of things which supplemented the old
familiar alcoveS with strange and un
canny devices, which gave. instead of the
old familiar printed book list, an un-
familiar card catalogue. and in place of
the Well known friend of former days
several busineSSlke young women, firm
In asking lncomprehensible questions, but
all the older generations have now been
won over and they are firm friends of
the modern library.
Since the establishment of the library
school In Atlanta in 1908 ninety two
young women have been graduated. and
brary work ifty-six are holding positions
in southern libraries. And so the in
f1uence OF the trained librarian is spread
ing and 1t is exception for a small
southern town to develop library interest
without calling into consultation the
nearest experienced library worker"
Miss Wooten concluded her paper with
a detailed statement of the development
of the modern library movement in each
of the southern states, giving statistical
data of the number of libraries, number
of librarians and the amounts each: has
expended in library extension.
DIR. r. w. De Forests Paper.
The Educational Work of the Ameri-
can Federation of Arts was described
in a paper by DR.. Robert ". De Forest
the president, and Miss Leila Mechlin,
secretary of the federation. Miss Mech
Inns speech was illustrated by the stere-
opticon. .....
MIR. De Forest emphasized the impor-
tance of exhibitions of art and the ad-
Visibility Of showing in them the best
art available. The American Federation
of Arts. which he represents, stands
ready to aid any library in its desire to
bring the best things in art to the people
of its community; for the federation. tax
has assembled collections carefully Sc
lected by experts, and including, with
other objects, paintings. sculpture, small
bronzes and medals and craft work. and
these are sent out upon application to
the smaller cities and towns and there
installed at comparatively small eX-
pense to the institution borrowing them.
| Miss Mechlin showed the work of the
federation. 1T was, she said, in re-
sponSe to the recent request OF pub
lie library in Fort Worth, Tex, that
the first travelling exhibition was sent
out by the American Federation of Arts.
This was about five years ago Dur
ing the present year the federation has
sent out no less than twenty-three ex-
hibitions of art which have gone to ia
places. and have been seen by more than
500, 900 persons Many of them have
been shown in galleries of public
libraries
Miss Mechlin told also of how the
American Federation of Arts co-operateS

through it's circulating lectures and its
publications. Arts and Progress,
monthly illustrated magazine, and the
American Art Annual, general di-
rectory of art.
In conclusion. she laid emphasis upon
the interrelation of the arts and upon
doing to open vistas for the public not
only along the great highway Of Htera
ture. but in the great field of art.
C. K. Bolton Presents Review,
Speaking to the topic. The Present
Trend Charles Knowles Bolton. Hbrari-
an of the Boston Athenaeum, read into
the proceedings of the conference
concise review of library progress in
the past half century. To George Tick
nor, historian of Spanish literature, Mr.
Bolton gives credit as the master mind
that saw the benefits to be derived from
great circulating library for the
people. with popular books of the day
purchased in sufficient numbers so that
they could be read and discussed while
they were a factor in the life of the
moment. He declared it was to Ticknor
that we owe the governing spirit of the
public library of the day.
THE past fifty years form an era of
development along technical lines, as well
as in the testing of public responsibility.
through which we have come to trust
our own people as no nation ever did
derstand something about the proper
housing of books and the art of bring
ing their presence and value home to the
people. we have opened wide doors
to the children-little children-and have
extended our influence through branch
buildings to every corner of a big city
and every schoolhouse and to every
home"
Library's Great Vogue.
Speaking particularly Of the methods
through which the public library has
come to have its great vogue. Mr.. Bolton
stated that the energetic man in a library
today wants to adopt the methods Of busi-
ness and bring his wares to the notice
Of the public.
We see the librarian trying the agen-
cies of a commercial nature he said
every small town. We are the thresh-
old of toulouse delivery. We are
hearing about the value of the rural free
delivery and the parcel post applied to
wider circulation Of books. If the farmer
will not go to the library. the books had
better come to him."
Speaking of the effect of this great ex-
pansion in the system of circulation of
books. Mr.. Bolton made the significant
assertion that the letter carrier cannot
in any way equal the personality of
the librarian as guide and friend" In
library work. he declared that we need
leaders who do not limit their horizon
to the library field. nor to the work for
which they are paid. I'm the big libraries
we need library knowledge plus admin

been continuous and it is keeping pace
with the great commercial progress OF

it's aversion to paternalism, has finally
accepted the free public library as a
necessary educational. institution. as is

mately ninety-one. libraries in the twelve
southern states since 1907, representing
an expenditure of more than 81 500, ,OOo. A
tribute to the vitality of the public Ii
brary movement has been the winning
