THE LIBRARY-PLEASURE AND
PROFIT.

We cannot remind ourselves too
frequently that a fundamental pur-
pose of good books, and so of the
library which possesses them, is TO
give pleasure, and that the library
ought to be more closely associated
with pleasure than any other in
stitution supported by the public.
Life for most of US is sufficiently
dull and colorless. The work day
aspect Expresses US. For the aver
age man and woman, whose educa-
ton has been limited, whose inn
agination has lacked all wider op-
portunity for cultivation, the east
est escape from the depressing mon
otony of daily routine will be

a care-filled life, ever since the days
of the arabian Nights"
The library is where the readers
are introduced to the friendship of
authors and their books. There
they are at home. Old and young,
rich and poor, wise and simple, men,
women and children, there we may
meet new friends on kindly and
familiar terms and widen our
dom and wit. There we renew ac-
quaintance WITH old friends. They
all greet US with an assured well

their presence creates for US.
