The Public Library

A TTENTION has been called to the Public Library OF
n New York which, result of the. inadequate APP
preparations period of years, is facing sit
nation where it will longer be able to meet the
demands made upon it.
We scarcely appreciate the value of public library
in large center of population
It nucleus of intellectual life and encourage
many people who afford to books them
selves
AS gets older his library becomes smaller He de-
ponds and upon public collections of books For
this public library in place like New York should
be a compendium of all the people will iced.
The staff of the public library well trained but greatly
underpaid.
The city of New York spends about four hundred million
dollars year. Only five per inhabitant would
give the librarians the living wage they asking for
New York approprates less than Atlanta, birmingham,
Buffalo, Jersey City, Louisville Omaha Rochester and
less than haf much Detroit Newark Pittsburgh and
Seattle, for its public libraries.
One hundred and twentyseven thousand five hundred
dollars appropriated by the Board OF Estimate Tor
books in 1920.
Since then this item has been Systematically cut down
until in 1926 t but $S1 900.
In the stock of books has fallen off alarm
ingly.
The Of community cannot pay too much attention
to their public schools and their pubic libraries.
The library of inspiration and of health to
many thousands of people.
The effect of adequate library not Immediately dis
cernible, but il is real, nevertheless
