Report of Trustees of Public Library
During the past year we have purchased 67 new volumes and five have been presented, making a total addition of 72 volumes, of which 39 were fiction. The number of volumes in the Library is now about 2260, of which about 1260 are fiction. Our reference books have been increased by complete sets of the "State Papers of New Hampshire" and "Official Records of the War of the Rebellion," which were given to the Library last year by Clifford S. Drake, Esq., and can now be found on our new book shelves in the reading room.
We have continued our subscriptions to the same maga- zines as last year, viz .: Century, Harper's, St. Nicholas and Scribner's. For several years Miss Mary L. Gilman has been furnishing our reading room with the London Illustrated News, an especially interesting periodical in these times.
A year ago the trustees found that our book shelves were becoming badly crowded, and as a temporary relief we had built a tier of shelves in the reading room. This was done at an expense of about $50, and will probably give room sufficient for our needs for several years.
Next year we shall probably be free from any large bills for repairs or betterments and can increase our book purchases accordingly. Our card index is always kept up to date and in addition we publish at intervals a list of our new books in the Exeter News-Letter.
The Trustees will welcome any suggestions from friends and patrons of the Library.

To the Citizens of North Hampton:
During the past year many changes have taken place in our board and schools.
The retirement of our secretary, Rev. Clarence H. LaRue, from our midst was a great loss to your school board. His
47
knowledge of educational principles, his fair judgment of matters pertaining to school management, and his always gentlemanly, christian attitude in critical times, is seldom to be excelled. So with his departure from the board we suffered a great loss.
His place has been filled by Mr. Wilfred Chevalier.
In July we found ourselves obliged to accept three resigna- tions and those places have been filled by able teachers.
Miss Doris McNeill has charge of the Centre Grammar School; Miss Lila Moulton, the Centre Primary School; Miss Annie Lord is in charge of the East School. It is with pleasure that we note the increasing interest of the parents in our schools, as we are convinced that a hearty spirit of coopera- tion between parents, teachers and pupils, cannot fail to pro- duce good results.
We are much pleased to note the growth in numbers of the East School. In the not far distant future the second room may have to be reopened there.
Our efforts in regard to a superintendent were of no avail. The wheels were blocked in three directions. In the future it will be wise for one to attempt this task and do it early, rather than all trying to do it, for they often hinder their own progress.
In leaving the board the chairman humbly suggests no stone be left unturned in attempting to secure a superintendent of schools, and he be given full power to manage the schools and school affairs.
The board should stand ready to make him feel they were strong backers to his good work and that they looked to him for excellent results. The teachers should know from whom to take orders and suggestions and to whom to look for help on all points.
