CITY LIBRARY ASSOCIATION. 



room so fittingly dedicated to the memory of a beloved and worthy 

 teacher they revived associations of school days. It was a delightful 

 occasion consisting of rare hospitality and renewal of friendships and 

 memories. 



This association has recently provided for the museum a children's 

 table and case which proves a most desirable extension of the library's 

 helpfulness. By the changing exhibits in the case and related stories 

 in books at hand on the substantial table, many restless children are 

 induced to spend profitable half hours learning something worth while. 



Summary. 



Thus the year closes, and a review of what has been accomplished 

 to make the museum of practical interest and value to the public brings 

 the conviction that the utmost has been done with present means, and 

 opportunity to extend the institution's usefulness along these well-tried 

 lines is awaited with eagerness. 



Respectfully submitted, 



GRACE PETTIS JOHNSON, Curator.
