The library has suffered a loss in the death of Judge Bell. Though his service as trustee was not long, his interest was genuine, and expressed, not only through faithful attendance at meetings, but by constant use of its books. It always means much to any librarian to have as trustees, men who really use the library. They are the only ones who know it under everyday conditions, and who can appreciate from personal experience its ideals, and its attempts to reach them. This factor in Judge Bell's service is an especial blow to the library.
Our full yearly accomplishment is never measured by the number of volumes circulated. The greater part of library work is in terms which cannot be reduced to statistics. It lies in the countless inquiries, to answer which requires intimate knowledge of books; in the personal attention given to each individual; in the effort to create a pleasant, home-like atmosphere. Not long ago, a new-comer to Andover told us that she considered the town remarkable for two reasons :- because it possessed a bank which actually treated a stranger as a human being, and because its library at once received her as a friend.
With next Memorial Day, the library will complete a half- century of service. There is no other town institution which serves young and old, rich and poor, with the same impartial consideration; none which enters so truly into the many-sided interests of the varying homes. Once established, a public library should become one of the most valuable assets of any town, - its influence limited only by the opportunity given it. The extraordinary growth in use and appreciation which the Memorial Hall Library records during its first half-century can be indefinitely extended and increased during the years to come.
Respectfully submitted,
EDNA A. BROWN Librarian

INFORMATION FOR USERS OF THE LIBRARY
The Memorial Hall Library is open every day except Sun- days and legal holidays from 9 to 12.30 in the morning, and from 3 to 9 in the afternoon and evening.
Any resident of Andover over ten years of age may have a library card upon filling out an application blank. Children in grades below the Punchard School are required to have their applications endorsed by both parent and teacher.
All grown people are allowed to take any reasonable number of books, provided that only one is a seven-day book. The Punchard pupils are permitted to borrow two, one fiction and one non-fiction.
Books are issued for fourteen days, the date upon which the book is due being stamped plainly on the "date due" slip at the time of issue. A book kept overtime incurs a fine of two cents for every day overdue. A few of the books most in demand are issued for seven days only. All these are labeled upon the book pocket, "Seven day book." Books lost or damaged must be paid for.
Seven day books are not renewed or reserved for anyone. Other books may be renewed if no one else has asked for them, and if a work not fiction is especially desired for any serious purpose, notice of its return to the library will be sent on request.
The shelves of the whole library are open to all grown people. The books are arranged according to subjects, and it is often much more satisfactory to go to the shelves and examine the books than to depend upon the catalogue.
The new books are listed at intervals in the weekly paper, and cumulated in the yearly library report, but the only complete record is the card catalogue. This catalogue is arranged alpha- betically like a dictionary. To find whether any given book is in the library, look for it under the surname of the author, or under its title. The right-hand drawers of the case contain a second arrangement of cards where the books are entered according to the subjects of which they treat.
The new books purchased each month are placed for some weeks in a special case on the north side of the reading room, so that the most recent additions to the library may be found
140
there. The library buys only a limited amount of new fiction but it tries to fill the wants of the community in regard to other books desired. People are invited to suggest for purchase the titles of books they wish.
The library staff is always glad to answer questions or in any way to help visitors find what they want.

REPORT OF CUSTODIAN JOHN CORNELL ART GALLERY
To the Trustees of the Memorial Hall Library.
GENTLEMEN: I herewith submit the report of the gallery for the twelve months ending December 31, 1922.
The closing of 1922 finds the gallery with a record of 212 visitors, the number being nearly equally divided between adults and children, the former registering 100, and the latter 112.
It is interesting to note that this record is almost the same as that of 1918, the record then being 211. There were excellent reasons at that time for the small attendance which do not hold now.
Thirteen pictures, representative of the different schools of painting, have been loaned, for the winter, to the Punchard Free School to occupy wall spaces pleading eloquently for decoration. This admirable idea was conceived and executed by Mrs. F. P. McClellan, head of the Art Department of the Novem- ber Club, ably assisted by Mrs. G. M. R. Holmes. The pictures were hung the week before Christmas. Their return to the gallery in the spring will emphasize anew the fact that the equip- ment of our new High School is not complete. Here is a clear field for graduating classes. It is certain that this bringing of a portion of the gallery to the pupils will result in an increased interest in the gallery as a whole. A recent caller, resident for many years in Washington and well acquainted with many of the art treasures in our Capital, expressed much satisfaction and pleasure in the Cornell collection.
