ILIBRARIES OoF ’THE FUTURE | Hugh Templin of the Fergus Newsâ€" }Reoord. got off ~some interesting prognostications last week on the future of our Public Libraries. It is a well known fact that the small town libraries such as Durham cannot begin to render the service they might do, where trained Librarâ€" ians are at the helm. As he says, "Cost will be higher but results will be broader." With no thought of imâ€" pairing the usefulness of Durham Libâ€" rary, a new era ushered in such as Mr Templin suggests, would benefit all stages of humanity, where now the reading public benefit. He says: "Perhaps it is rash to attempt to prophesy, but in this case coming câ€" vents are casting a c\ear shadow . In the not far Aistant future, you are sure to see the library system in towns the size of Fergus changed very considerably. Libraries will be conducted more Ilfke schools are now. _ ‘Costs will be higher but reâ€" sults will also be broader.

At 71 years of age, one naturally looks for retirement from mental pursuits. Not so with the Doctor : as Chairâ€" | man of the Old Age Pensions and | Mothers‘ Allowance Board for Onâ€" tario, a man needs to be vitally alive to make decisions intelligently on ‘;t.hese matters. It is therefore gratifyâ€" ing to more than the Doctor and Mrs Jamieson, to know that his work has the entire confidence of the Governâ€" ment _ he _ represents. He has stated more than once as feeling he is of some use to his country and this is the thought which imbued us to write this article. It is a wellâ€"known fact that the staff of these two deâ€" partments hold a very high regard for the Doctor and his wife. _ They, with his townsfolk in Durham, regardâ€" less of political bias, will wish that many years of useful service to the public is yet ahead of them.
