On the other hand a still larger number who were- "passable" continued to attend regularly because they were apparently interested in the work and were de- sirous of improving their education.
In addition to the regular courses of study and in- struction given nightly the teachers were always. cheerfully ready and willing to give individual help to pupils whenever called upon, and thus help to smooth out and untangle apparently "knotty problems" that. to the puzzled student might otherwise remain "masses of mystery."
Implicit discipline was firmly insisted upon throughout, but it was at all times your principal and teachers' desire to temper this with absolute fairness. and the strictest impartiality so that it should not ap- pear unreasonable or arbitary.
Respectfully submitted,
E. I. KNOWLES, principal.

LIBRARIAN'S REPORT.
The year 1904-5 has been one of continued activi- ty. Despite the diphtheria epidemic, which caused some borrowers to temporarily cease taking out books, 28,239 volumes have been circulated during the year, an increase of 5.66 per cent. over last year's circula- tion. Every possible precaution was taken to prevent infection through the books. Books which came from houses in which there was diphtheria were burned, and of course no cther books were permitted to be taken out until the quarantine had been re- moved.
There has been practically no change, never more than a fraction of a per cent., in the proportion of books circulated from the various departments of the library. The percentage of fiction circulated is always smaller than that of most libraries, an indication that the library borrowers are reading for information as well as for pleasure. Not that the library discourages
168
REPORT OF LIBRARY COMMITTEE.
fiction reading. Each year we buy a few of the standard novels, many of which the library lacks.
Each year the library does a larger reference work. The library attendants are always glad to make every endeavor to find information on any subject.
337 new volumes have been purchased during the year, 12 worn out volumes have been replaced by new ones. Among the best of the books added are the fol- lowing: Gosse "Romance of Natural History," Hornaday " American Natural History," Kingsland "Book of indoor and outdoor games," Schierbrand "Germany," Howe " Roma Beat," Tweedie "Sunny Sicily," Savage-London "Across coveted lands," Elson "History of the United. States," Clay "A belle of the fifties," Conway "Autobiog- raphy," Granger "Index to pretry and recitations."
A few novels have been added to the French col- lection and "Nouveau Larousse illustré," has been com- pleted by the addition of volume seven. This is one of the best encyclopedias published, is entirely in French and should be used extensively by those who read French.
The library has received as gifts a number of in- teresting books during the year; they are included in the list of new books. . Through the Eddy town fund we have received 16 volumes of the vital statistics of towns of Massachusetts. These will be of great value to the student of Massachusetts history and genealogy.
319 volumes have been rebound and 60 volumes of periodicals have been bound. Much time and labor are spent in mending the books at the library but as
169
REPORT OF LIBRARY COMMITTEE.
the library grows in size and use more and more money must be spent for rebinding.
A new catalogue of fiction was published during the year and for this the Library Committee decided to charge 10c per copy. All other catalogues can be obtained free of charge. With the assistance of Miss Cook of the High school we published a list of suggested reading for the use of pupils of the High school. Copies can be obtained at the library free of charge. Most of the books included in this list are of interest to adults as well as to boys and girls.
The collection of books which Mr. Holmes Ammi- down left to the library is being catalogued and we expect to publish a catalogue of the same within the next few months.
A few changes have been made in the periodicals in the reading room. The magazine of art is no longer published. The Edinburgh review has been discontinued and Country life in America and Outing have been added to the reading room. The library has subscribed for a second copy of the Outlook, to be circulated. Dupli- cate copies of Harper's, Scribner's, Century and New Eng- land magazines, the Atlantic, North American review and St. Nicholas are also taken. Any of these may be drawn for home reading either with or without a book.
We have had exhibitions of pictures from the Library art club and the Woman's educational associa- tion. Among the subjects presented were: The passion
170
REPORT OF LIBRARY COMMITTEE.
play at Oberammergau, Birds of New England, Modern American sculpture, Sienna, Amiens, Rome and Venice.
A beginning has been made at mounting pictures for the use of the schools. Mr. John E. Paige kindly began the collection by contributing nine steel engrav- ings of American authors.
The new registration of borrowers begun last year, has been continued and 602 new and old borrowers have. been added to the list during 1904-5. The new list now- numbers 1770.
