SATURDAY EVENING, LIBRARY WORK IS POORLY BACKED UP State Report Shows That Many Profit Through the Interest of Faithful Few | CONDITIONS IN THE STATE ; Free Library Work Is Expanding Rapidly—lnteresting Comments by the Division Appeal is made In the annual re port of the Pennsylvania Free Library ■Commission for 1913 for "an efficient . library law for public libraries which will give them an assured foundation and something approaching an ade quate, assured support." It is noted that a "few faithful people" are the source of strength of most libraries, especially those In small towns and that many libraries "must depend up on 'teas,' 'tag-days' and 'socials' that ; their doors may not be closed." The ; application locally is not far to seek. The report of the commission, as | presented to Thomas Lynch Mont gomery, the State librarian, does not | suggest any specific law but says that j a "good codification of our library | laws would be a great help." The re | port also says: j "For the benefit of those who are ■| carrying this burden (of libraries) In j many places, we note that this condl i tlon Is hot confined to one section nor to onp State; that the cause of this Is that public opinion Is not yet edu cated to the point where a library with adequate support is demanded; that this continued, patient effort is having the desired effect, as Is proven by the j number of our libraries which are | slowly but surely making a place for | themselves In the life of the coramun | ity and receiving the recognition and [support which are their due." j Seven new libraries were opened I during the year—Wyomlsslng, West j Fairvlew, Rockdale, Tower City, Mer- I cersburg, New Hope and Mt. Union, ; while the Harrisburg public library, 'opened January 1, 1914, is regarded as I properly belonging to 1913 because it j was intended to open it during that year, but circumstances prevented; It, however, is not a new library but merely the transferral of an old one to a new building and placing It on a free basis instead of on a subscription basis. This is also true of the Wash ington Citizens library, which became the Citizens Free Library on January 1. During 1913 $461,930 was given in caf-h as gifts or bequests for libraries ; besides a building site given for a li brary a't Mt. Pocono. Through the travelling library sys tem the com. lisslon sent 17.584 books frot the State Library here to 327 •iifferent points in the State. Of these, 13,009 volumes went into t!.e coun ! try; the others went to schools, to I study clubs or to free libraries. More 1 than 40,000 persons used these books. Works on Latin America were espe jeiaily popular, presumably because of ; the Panama Canal. 1 A list of free libraries is printed in i.ihe report, showing 142 such institu i tions in the State. The list is believed |to be complete. Ten years ago the : list of the Keystone State Library As sociation contained the names of sixty seven free libraries, some of which i have died since and some of which i were dead when the list was Issued.

Paderewski is Just at the summit of Ills powers to-day. He ic ftfty-two and the richness of his experience aa well as the hard work that has brought him to so great a perfection, give an advantage over any other pianist of his times.
