He commenced with the time when papyrus was used and explqined how it was made from a leafâ€"the plants growing chiefly along the Nile. ‘The'se plants are now extinct or as he put it commercialized clean out of existence.â€" This trade was fully as profitable as the raper business mf today; the profits from the paâ€" pyrus industry being sufficient to maintain an army. in India. ,The next material used‘toâ€"any extent was skins or vellum as the finished proâ€" duct was called and this was made into the codex formâ€"the same as our present books. Books over five HWunâ€" dred years old were exhibited and it was ‘exlened that this material was so valuable thit when a book had. outlived its usefulness it was usually cleaned and the vellum written on the second time. One of the books exhiâ€" bied was magle in Abysinnia and pubâ€" ished in the Ethionian language. From the script easch step â€" was â€" folâ€" lowed in a very interesting way unâ€" til the,present wonderful system of printing and binding was reached. should paint a LTUC pICLULC CC i°"* a clear â€" conception of right an« wrong. Miss Lilian Smith of Toront( has compiled two lists for boys an( girlsâ€"one of fiction and one of class bopks and also a list for older boys and girls. In the London Library they have posters with attractive picâ€" tures and short lists for the boys and ginls to select books from such â€" as Adventure; School Days; Tuckâ€"meâ€" inâ€"'Stories exe. Where the . story hour is made a feature; at least one good book should be on hand for the story teller. Clubs for nature study; lreading-or other subjects have usâ€" ually good results; ultimately leadâ€" ing the boys amg girls to use of proâ€" per books. Some. of the books favorâ€" ably mentioned _ were Merrylips; Master Skylark; The Bluebird and Chanticleer| _ GRIMS The first public library was at Niaâ€" gara in the year 1880 and the memâ€" bers paid $4.00 per year eachâ€"quite a sum in those days and much larger than it costs individuals now for a much better service. That library hgd some excellent works; the first purchase being a set costing $55 and the second a~set costing over $35.00. On th;ir shelves history and travel predominated. In 1835 Parliament gave its first grayt to Mechanics‘ Inâ€" stitutes and in 1882 the Public Libâ€" raries‘ Act was passed but he was afraid that the more the government gave to libraries the less they were willing to do for themselves. Quoting figures Mr. Carson stated that the patronage of Ontario Librarâ€" ies in 1880 was 268,000 volumes or about the same as the city of London now. «In 1890 it had ‘increased to about 1,000,000;â€" in 1900 to about 2,500,000; n 14910 to about 3,000,000; and n 1920 to about 6,00,000.
