Ingalls Memorial Library
We are happy to report an unusual gift to the Library which has recently arrived. This is The Smithsonian Series, given by Mrs. George R. Wallace, Jr. of Fitchburg. The Series consists of 12 volumes of unusual value and interest. They will be placed in the Symonds Room very soon. We hope all, particularly Junior and High School students, will become familiar with the set and find it of use in connection with their work.
We are very grateful for the many gifts of current literature through- out the year. Books have been given by Mrs. Willard Gray, Mrs. Everard Upjohn, Mrs. Richard Fisher, Mrs. Harold Rice, Mrs. Harry Sherwin, Mrs. Ralph Pangborn and Misses Susan and Genevieve Doran, Eula Ferguson, Cora Cleaves, Marcia Richardson and Mr. Edward Hunt. In addition, the West Townsend Church has contributed a set of 5 volumes; Commentaries on the Bible.
For the Museum, we have had a dolls' cradle, hand-made by James Bowers of Rindge for the late Mrs. Julius Prescott on her third birthday, and left to us in her will.
The Symonds Room is now being used several times weekly by various boards and committees working for the welfare of the Town in one way or another. We approve and urge the continued and further use of this charming, well lighted and heated room but we hope the townspeople will feel that a larger budget should be allowed us to pay the additional cost of heating and lighting.
45
We urge too, a greater appropriation to permit an increase in the salary of the Librarian. Miss Morgan is serving us for only approximately fifty cents per hour. Compared with the current pay for the least skillful laborer, this is low indeed. It would be difficult to replace Miss Morgan's knowledge of the needs and wants of the children she tries to guide into good reading for their pleasure and development of their minds and characters.
Mrs. George Milnor of Chicago, a descendant of the Platts family, has given $100.00 towards renewing the Young Peoples' Room. With it we have paid for the new blinds and Junior Encyclopedia Brittanica. We hope further contributions will be made this year to permit replacement of the old and inconvenient stacks.
We are much pleased with the growing interest shown in the Library and are already making plans to extend the present service for the child- ren when the new schoolhouse is ready for use.
HARRIS H. RICE HARRY E. SHERWIN MARY E. SHEPHERD, Trustees.
In 1945 we were treading the Highway of progress and achievement; but we cannot always remain on the uplands ;- in 1946 our way has led through the plains of everyday routine, it has even seemed like a depression, with no regular funds to spend for new books. However, we do not intend to stay in the depression
The circulation of books has maintained an even trend during the year, comparing favorably with that of 1945. There have been some changes in the exchange service at East and West Rindge. The restoration of gasoline has made it possible for adults to use the Center library more frequently, so that the exchanges have had a small patronage. The ex- change room at West Rindge has been closed until summer, although books may be borrowed and returned at the home of Mrs. Harvey Hale in West Rindge and at the home of Mrs. Edward Symons in East Rindge, where your librarian calls once each week. We wish to thank both Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Symons for their hospitality and their contribution to our library service. The school exchanges continue as usual and are highly interesting and active.
One new phase of our library service has been borrowing from the State Library collections of pictures, illustrating some of the World's famous paintings, outstanding examples of European architecture, and the beautiful art designs originating among the rural folk of Pennsylvania in the early 18th century. These pictures have been used at the West Rindge school for study and at the Center library for exhibition.
46
Our pride and pleasure in the newly furnished Symonds Memorial Reading Room has not diminished. It continues to awaken warm feel- ings of gratitude to the friend who has so greatly enriched our library.
We regret that the call to teach at the East Rindge school has made it necessary for Mrs. Edward Hunt to discontinue her work as assistant to the librarian, but we remember with appreciation and gratitude her very excellent help in the service of the library for the past five years. Mrs. Ralph Pangborn is now serving as assistant to the librarian and we antici- pate through her efforts new channels of interest and efficiency for our library. This report will not be complete without a thank you to our janitor Mr. Herbert Crowell for his ever faithful and kindly service and to Miss Florence Danforth whose substitute work is an important part of our library activity.
Respectfully submitted,
ALICE L. MORGAN, Librarian
