Selections pre made from recommended lists such as the American Library Association list, from tjie^lllinois Pupils Reading Circle, and as a result of personal examination of books. "During the four years which the McHenry Rural School Library has been in operation We have purchased nearly 900 volumes. In addition to these books we now have about $180 on hand with which to buy additional books. Think of it, each one-room rural school in-this district will have ^access to approximately 1,000 b8ok^ this year at a total cost to the school district of only $50. Duker Gives Statement "You may ask "whether the tural schools make good use of the library. The following quotation from Mr. C. H. Duker, superintendent of McHenry Community high school, will answer your question: " 'Every teacher in the district has made great use of the library- Over half of the books have been in circulation at^ all times. I feel that the library, has been one of the greatest advances made in our rural school program.' "Mr. Duker further states: " 'There has been a noticeable. improvement in the work done in the Freshman class in our high school during the past two years. It is very probable that this is due to the rural library.' "Do the children read the books after the teachers bring them to their respective schools? They do. Records. kept of the outside reading done by the twenty-six fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grade pupils in the Ringwood school show that last year each pupil read an average of 16.3 books for his own pleaSlire during the school term of nine months. This" in addition to the extensive use of supplementary material obtained from the library to enrich the work in curricular subjects. "Tr/"' "The fact that the directors at their annual meeting this spring voted to double the. library dues of their respective school districts, indicates that they have faith in the library. However, by the way of securing the personal opinion of one of the older directors, I asked Mr. S. H. Beatty, a farmer who has been a school director for 23 "years, what ha thought of the library. > "His answer was as folows: " 'When I went to school, over 50 years ago, the only botfks we had were our text books. We had no library where we could get other stories to read or get information we might want. The McHenry Rural School LiBf-ary^to which our school belongs, gives *every school an opportunity to have a' library good enough and big enough to amount to something. It seems to me that the Rural Library is a very practical way of supplying the children with a large number of books.' "In McHenry county the consensus of opinion among teachers, directors and pupils seems to be that the Rural School Library is a highly satisfactory method of supplying adequate library facilities."' church, Oak Park, interment in Mount Carmel cemetery.
