PUBLIC LIBRARY.
To the Editor. Sir, — Please allow me a small space in your paper to protest about the way your public library is conducted. In the first place, it is generally after 10 o'cloek before it is opened and then closed from 12 o'clock until 2.30. One either has to wait abdut all the morning or waste half the afternoon to get one's library ehanged. Now, sir, two and a half hours for luneh seems to me to be o'ut of all reason. Subscribers who live out of town must find it very inconvenient, to say the leastI have travelled about a good deal and it is the- first public library that has come under my notice that has such ridiculous hours, and it is also the first public library I have known that has no heating system in the ceading room. It is a positive misery bo try and read papers there, it is so mld. For a town of this size, with the number of visitors that come here, it is a very poor advertisement. — -I im. etc..
