Seymour, and Marion E. Smith. They received the highest ranks in a competitive examination of fifteen applicants. The examination was conducted with great care, and the identity of none was known to anyone until the sealed envelopes con- taining the names were opened by the Trustees in meeting as- sembled.


In accordance with a vote of the Board of Trustees at the April meeting the Librarian appeared at a hearing of the Board of Aldermen to place the Library Board upon record as urgently recommending the adoption of the retirement al- lowance system for city employees as set forth in Chapter 184, Acts of 1930 of the Massachusetts General Court. Since then the voters of Somerville have accepted the act of referen- dum. This retirement system is of the contributory type, and beginning with January first, 1931, all employees enrolled un- der it will have four per cent of their pay withheld each week. Under the terms of this act one employee of the library will be automatically retired as soon as the Board of Retirement can take action upon the case.


The notable library convention of the northeastern states held last June at the New Ocean House, Swampscott, at which a thousand librarians met for the study and discussion of pro- fessional subjects, has a direct interest for this library. Its contributions were considerable. The Librarian was the gen- eral manager and presiding officer, Miss Morse, Executive As- sistant, attached to the Central Library office, carried on the well-organized and very busy registration bureau of the con- vention, Mary B. Bartlett, Children's Librarian at the East branch, and Kathleen O'Brien, Children's Librarian at the Union Square branch, reproduced an old time minuet in cos- tume at the tercentenary celebration on the final evening. Sixteen of our assistants participated in this successful per- formance, rotogravure pictures of which were published in the Boston Herald.


A traditional policy among librarians has been to keep the machinery of the library in the background, and to exhibit to the public only a smoothly functioning service. One of the original reasons was probably the desire to secure the utmost degree of silence for students and readers. Seclusion of the machinery has been accomplished at the cost of certain ad- vantages. The public has come to take too much for granted. People have no conception whatever of the work that goes on behind the scenes to create the casually accepted efficien- cy. Many would be surprised to learn that the visible service is a minor part of the employment hours of the staff. They

can hardly be expected to visualize a work room organized for successive operations upon books according to a step by step progress like a shoe shop or an automobile plant. They might be dismayed by the summer task of inspecting, cleaning, mend- ing, and otherwise re-conditioning three million pages in books returned from school room deposits. There is an extraordin- ary amount of detail in the business of the Central office. Each of the more than 12,000 books bought was in effect a separate purchase, because each had to be checked or approved for suitability, for price, for prior possession, for source, and many similar items. During the year orders have been placed with seventy-three different dealers. Every order has had a specific reason for its destination. Among the determining reasons for placing an order are such factors as price, discount, type of book handled by the dealer, exclusive control by dealer, special service available. Buying books is a highly specialized work the knowledge of which is gained only by years of ex- perience. Incidental to the book order work has been the writ- ing of 318 letters for the single purpose of clearing up ques- tions of prices or billing. One of the contributions of the cir- culation department to the work of the office is difficult prob- lems of un-returned books. This year it has involved the writ- ing of 764 letters to careless borrowers. These are little side- lights that explain why one salesman remarked that our office is the busiest one that he goes into.


It is appropriate to include in the report of the year the following communication from the City Clerk.


(COPY) CITY OF SOMERVILLE


In Board of Aldermen, July 26, 1930.


ORDERED :


That whereas under the will of Thomas J. Buffum, late of Somerville, who died October 25, 1929, a bequest was made in the following form :


"5 To the City of Somerville the sum of two thousand dollars to be expended by the Trustees of the Somerville Public Library for such purposes as they may determine for the benefit of the library."


Now, therefore, this gift is hereby gratefully accepted to be placed in charge of the City Treasurer with authority to receive the same and to invest and reinvest the same in such


366


ANNUAL REPORTS


manner as the savings banks of Massachusetts may be, from time to time, authorized to make investments; and that the administration of said fund be placed in charge of the Board of Trustees of the Public Library for such purposes as they may determine for the benefit of the library.


In Board of Aldermen July 26, 1930. Adopted.


Approved by the Mayor July 29, 1930.


Attest : (Signed) NORMAN E. CORWIN,


City Clerk.


With reference to the foregoing notice the Trustees voted :


"That the bequest of $2,000 under the will of Thomas J. Buffum, accepted by the Board of Aldermen on July 26, 1930, be established as a permanent fund to be known as the Thomas J. Buffum Fund, of which the income only may be expended by the Trustees of the Somerville Public Library for such pur- poses as they may determine for the benefit of the library, as specifically provided by the terms of the will."


The Board of Trustees suffered a serious loss by the death on October 25 of J. Frank Wellington, a member since 1893. The death also of William J. Ennis on August 27 occured so soon after the termination of Mr. Ennis' valued services that it was felt as a personal loss to members of the Board. Ex- pressions of regret and appreciation in each of these cases, adopted for insertion in the records, were sent to the respec- tive families, and published in the Somerville Journal. They may be found in Appendix A of this report.


New appointments to the Board have been Rev. David V. FitzGerald of St. Joseph's Church, and Miss Anna J. Coll of the staff of the Southern Junior High School. Miss Coll is the first woman to serve upon the Board.


The following promotions have been made during the year: Alice L. Delaney from Senior Assistant to First As- sistant at the Union Square Branch, Kathleen O'Brien from Senior Assistant to Children's Librarian at the Union Square Branch, Ruth H. Eaton from Senior Assistant to Assistant-in- Charge of the Winter Hill Station, and Helen T. Blish, Ruth Nourbourn, Kathleen O'Brien, Winifred J. Pember, Gertrude Reynolds, and Evelyn R. Robinson from first year Senior As- sistants to second year Senior Assistants.

APPENDIX A


TRIBUTE TO THE LATE J. FRANK WELLINGTON


It seems fitting for the trustees of the Somerville Public Library to supplement the numerous tributes to the memory of J. Frank Wellington by placing upon record some expres- sion of appreciation of his services as a library trustee.


He began this service in January, 1893, and served con- tinuously for nearly thirty-eight years, until his death on October 25, 1930.


It is seldom indeed that any community enjoys the ben- efits of such an uninterrupted period of consistently high- grade service in an unpaid capacity. The time devoted to at- tendance at meetings in that period alone amounts to consider- ably more than a business year and if capitalized upon the basis of earning power would mount into the thousands. Dur- ing all these years he was constantly making quiet contribu- tions for the alleviation of distress among employees, and to promote the welfare of the staff in manifold ways. It was perfectly characteristic of the innate modesty of the man that his benefactions were always anonymous. Moreover, it is al- ready known that he has provided substantial bequests for the permanent benefit of the people of his home city through li- brary work. So, having rested from his labors, as it was said of old, "His works do follow him."


The worth of these contributions in terms of financial power and timeliness should not be permitted to obscure the even greater value of his steadfast allegiance to standards of excellence in the public service and to his discriminating rec- ognition of the conditions and methods essential to the pro- motion of these ends.


To an unusual degree he possessed the sense of his posi- tion as a public trust. As a trustee he set a standard of re- sponsible action, of unselfish devotion and of fair and open minded judgment that establishes a safe guide for a sound and progressive institution. The property and the rights of citizens are secure when committed to the custody of such men.


In 1928 as the completion of a term of thirty-five years approached the trustees signalized the event by the public christening of the main hall of the Central library building as Wellington Hall, and by the unveiling of a suitable bronze tablet. It was a deep satisfaction to give public recognition to a valued and esteemed colleague while he was able to be


369


PUBLIC LIBRARY


present to enjoy the tribute. The only further act within the power of the Board is permanently to engross upon its rec- ords this expression of appreciation and affection.


TRIBUTE TO THE LATE WILLIAM J. ENNIS


William J. Ennis was appointed to the Board of Trustees of the Somerville Public Library December 31, 1925, and serv- ed until the early part of the present year. Sensible of an opportunity and an obligation in the appointment he was con- stant in his attendance at meetings of the Board and of its Book Committee of which he was a member throughout the. period of his service. He brought to the Board a training and personality that made him a welcome recruit. He im- mediately established himself in the respect and esteem of all. He had the gift of friendliness; in a perfectly effortless and natural manner he was courteous, considerate, tolerant. When he entered the room he brought with him a genial glow of good fellowship and good will. It was a pleasure to sit in council with him. He was free from contentiousness and sus- picion, and from the stubbornness of preconceived opinion. On the contrary, he was able to accept and ponder facts with an open mind, and cheerfully willing to accept a decision in ac- cordance with the merits of a question. His participation in a discussion was a perfect demonstration of how immeasur- ably preferable it is to settle a question by a genial approach. to mutual understanding, than by bitter and acrimonious con -. troversy.


In the work of disseminating culture and knowledge which! is the whole purpose of the Library's existence he made a def- inite and constructive contribution. Our city has reason for- grateful remembrance of one who served it well.
