ACTIVITY OF MBRARY Shown in Annual Report Filed With State Librarian The Freeport Library, by Miss Alice B. Rogan, its librarian, has filed its annual report with the State Lib rarian. The report shows an increase of over 300 volumes during the year and over 23,000 volumes lent free As follows: Volumes at beginning of year.—For adults, 3,897, added by purchase 166, by gift 71, total 4,124; withdrawn or lost 31; number now in use 4,093. For children the figures were 1,094, 86 and 69, a total of 1,239 with 26 withdrawn, net 1,214; and the totals, adults and children AJIfl^at beginning of year; 372 added and 56 deducted, making a total now in use of 5,307 volumes. The books lent were divided as fol Adults Children Total Fiction 9,394 4.590 13,984 Non-fiction , 4,323 4,408 8,731 Magazines 13,921 9,096 23,016 The number of new borrowers dur ing the year was 670 and the total number of borrowers registered 3,436. Forty-one newspapers and periodicals are currently received at the library. The financial report shows a bal ance of nearly $600 on hand, with the following figures RECEIPTS From School Board $1,300.00 State loo.oo Fines 160.61 DISBURSEMENTS Books Periodicals Binding y Salaries Janitor Rent Heat and Light Miscellaneous At the regular meeting Thursday afternoon all present but Trustee Be dell, a communication was received from the L. I. R. R. advising that the gates at the Henry Street crossing, which the company had been putting down all night long without having tried to secure legal right to do this, would now be kept up except when trains were approaching. A communication was received fron Mrs. Alice Schwab asking the aid of the Board in getting the military po lice to remove the guard which pre vents soldiers from entering the place. This was not in the line of work of the Board, and no action was taken be yond tiling the paper. The Fire Council, through Deputy Chief Sn-ith, recommended the pur chase of 600 feet of hose as decided on by the Council. He also had with him a Pulmotor sent on exhibition, but as the repre sentative gf the company selling these was not prebent, after a brief demon- stratimvby Mr. Smith, which im pressed the members tfery favorably, this was laid over till the next meet ing so that the representative of the company might be present. The ma chine seems very practical and looks as though it would not deteriorate from lack of use. The Deputy ChiSf, on behalft of Hose 2TT asked for permission to order electric fixtures for the new house,! at a cost not to exceed $76. He was in structed to secure estimates and pre sent tlxem at the next Beard meeting. Thomas Chilton, day man at the power house, was granted an increase of salary of $5 a month.

It has been a distrib uting center for various pamphlets on food conservation, etc. During the fruit season several hundred leaflets on canning and drying ruits and vege tables were distributed. On the walls were displayed posters and maps re lating to the war. The Library War Service Fund was the one in which the Library took the most active part. $260.60 were received here from our patriotic citizens and 208 volumes were collected and forwarded to the sorting station in New York. The campaign for books for the aeltiiers and sailors still continues at the Lib rary.\ Library dosed The Freeport Public Library closed on Saturday, October 19, by request of the Board of Health, to remain closed until the epidemic subsides. Keegan to Manage DeSilTa’s Branfh J. Morton Keegan has taken the management of DaSilva's Main Street branch. Mr. ^eegan bee been acting traveling salesman with a large wholesale paper house. Freeport Club for a Patriotic Use A meeting of the Freeport Club will sdCn be called, to vote upon the unani mous recommendation of the Board of Directors that the Club be turned over to the War Camp Community Service for the duration of the war, at com pensation sufficient to pay all carrying charges of the club and to keep th place in first-class repair. This is following along the line of other clubs as the Rockville Centre Club, the Republican Club at Rich mond Hill, and the Cedarhurst Club. So far this Club has not been called upon to do much, as a club, for the soldiers beyond loan of house on sev- eral Occasions for private dances to which a small number of soldiers were invited, and entertaining soldiers on one occasion in connection with a Lib- terty Loan drive and on another oc casion for the entertainment commit tee of the W. C. C. S., and many of the members feel that now is a time for the members to show their patri otic principles by doing their share in entertaining the boys away from home, in view of the establishment of the permanent camp at Camp Mills this Winter. There is a considerable opposition to the proposition on the part of those who use the club house regularly and who insist thaf the Club has sufficient- ly demonstrated its patriotism by lend ing the house for meetings of the Red Cross, Liberty Loan Committee, etc. The taking of the Club House for the Red Circle work will not inter fere with its use for these purposes, but will do away with its use entirely as a club house for members of the Freeport Club while so occupied. Later.—The meeting will be held next Friday night, November 1. Spanish Influenza Reaches High Point Dr. William H. Runcie, our local Health Officer, informs us that he thinks the epidemic of -Spanish influ enza has reached ite highest point, judging by the report of cases. A total of 126 cases have been reported for Freeport up to Wednesday mom ing, an increase from 68 since last Thursday. Every effort has been made to pre vent the spread of the epidemic. Churches, schools and movie places have beqg closed. Ordershave been issued to saloons and soda feuntam places to sterilize all drinking glasses after using. It has been requested that no lodge meetings or other public gatherings be held where more than a dozen or fifteen men or women might congre gate at once, and stores have been re quested not to allow more than a lim ited number m their places at one It is thought that with these re quests and orders being carried out fully the ben may be lifted in a very few days. ^ This column to edite* by Xer.
