Weekly story hours, during the school year have been given at the Main Library by Miss Clancy and the Andrews Branch by Mrs . Brennan. They con- tinue to attract children to the Library.
Book circulation is surprisingly sensitive to general economic conditions. In periods of widespread unemployment, libraries all over the country show large increases in the numbers of books read - usually either books for entertainment or practical "self-improvement" books. On the other hand, when unemployment is less prevalent less reading is done but what is done is of a more serious nature. In 1950, when employment has been generally high, 67,458 adult books were circulated as compared to 70,165 in 1949, a loss of 2707. However, the circulation of non-fiction books showed a gain of 1,292 in 1950 whereas fiction circulation showed a loss of 3,999 in 1950. Two other factors probably deserve consideration as being con-

tributory to the loss in circulation of fiction: one, the generally peor quality of new fiction published in 1950 and, second, the advent of tele- vision as a widespread medium of entertainment.
A greater number of reference questions pertaining to a wide variety of subjects has been answered in 1950 than in 1949. High school term papers; club papers on such subjects as dynamic symmetry, folk art and mythology, and women espionage agents present an interesting challenge to our ingenuity.
As in previous years the inter-library loan department of the State Division of Public Libraries has proved most cooperative in supplying books on such specialized subjects as industrial psychology and management, horse- manship, model railroads, delinquency and crime prevention, and sets of books in French, Hebrew and other languages, as well as individual titles of limited interest. Altogether a total of 226 books were borrowed on interloan in 1950. We lent 22 books to libraries in New Hampshire, Cali- fornia; and Worcester, Amesbury, Leominster and West Newbury, Massachusetts.
Thirty-two books on sewing were sent from the State Library for use in connection with a State Extension course given at the Y.W.C.A. These, in addition to the personal collection of sewing books lent the library by Miss Lorna Learned, were much used.
Two Girl Scout troups visited the Library for a tour of the building, short talks on the library, and microfilm demonstration. In August, volun- teer workers of the X-Ray Mobile Unit used the Directors' Room for regis- tration while the truck was stationed outside in front of the building.
The Annual meeting, open to the public, of the Friends of the Library, was held in the Reading Room of the Main Library on May 31. Mr. Curtis K. Thomas, Ring's Island author, presented an absorbing paper on the histori- cal traditions of reading and writing.
The Library received a grant of $50 from a fund established under the will of the late Harry Futterman of New York to be used for musical record- ings. This money, plus the gift of a number of record albums from the col- lection of the late John Ranney (associate professor at Smith) have gone far to inject new life into our small but greatly appreciated circulating collection of musical recordings. Through a notice in the newspaper, music-lovers of the city were invited to send in their suggestions of re- cords to be added.
The Doctor Healy Fund established under the will of the late Dr. T.Raymond Healy who had served on the Library Board at various intervals over a thir- ty year period was officially set up in the summer of 1950. Since October, three books on medical subjects have been purchased from the Doctor Healy Fund.
We are grateful that through the provision in the library budget of money for long-overdue library repairs we have been able to make extensive re- pairs to stokers, to paint the wooden trim and windows of the main library, and do an overall job of gutter and roof repair to the Annex part of the Library building. New hot water pipes were installed. Two plans for modernizing the lighting system of the Main Library have been drawn up by two firma of lighting engineers. Work on enlarging the electric service was begun in 1950 and is still in process. We hope that the 1951 budget will include funds, asked for, to continue the work of lighting renovation which has been started.
1950, especially during the winter months, saw a great amount of short illnesses among the staff during the virus epidemic as well as one case of illness of an extended nature following an operation. We are very grateful indeed that, for the first time, a regular account for Library Substitutes was set up in the budget as recommended by the Library Directas.

The Librarian is most grateful to each member of the Library staff and to Mr. C. Frank Kelleher, janitor of the Library, for the fine spirit of help- fulness and cooperation.
It would be impossible to close without an expression of warm gratitude to the Library Directors for the valued contribution of each one to solv- ing the varied problems of policy and planning which have arisen during 1950.
We hope that 1951, with its new problems arising from the challenge of the times, will provide even broader opportunities for library service.

Leaks Repaired on Griffin Court, Liberty Street, and Curzon Mill Road. Miscellaneous :
All new construction work was carried out under a Bond Issue of $60,000. The work included the laying of water mains, installation of hydrants and house services under the supervision of Mr. John Lucy, Foreman .
A new Gravel Packed Well and Pump House were constructed by contract under the supervision of Whitman and Howard, Consulting Engineers, and Russell M. Pierce, Architect. The discharge line from the Pumping Station was installed by Mr. John Lucy, Foreman, and the regular employees. The cost of this work was below the estimate; therefore, Some further extensions will be possible in 1951 if material is available.
A special appropriation was granted to start a program of metering all services. Good progress has been made. A new Meter Testing and Repair Room has been constructed in the basement of City Hall.
The repair of the Myrtle Avenue standpipe was started this year and it is proposed to complete the work in 1951.
For the first time the Board contracted for the mechanical cleaning of 5,280 feet of water mains. This work was very successful.
