The Library'a Pl'ace. in Whitby Quietly, but very eff ectively, tht educa- i ional work of tht Public Library la car- ried on-in Whitby-year in and year out. lt la one off the instituti6is taken tea niuch 'for granted by the public, like xnany other assets. Whitby van boast of and the resuit is that many people are noVt aware off the piaèe- it fis lu the life off tht comrnunity. -With over 1400 'book patrons, and hua- (lreds tal0ng advantage >off the facilities of ,thie readiug room, includîng many traveilers passing through, Whitby could, -*Il afford ta- do without tht library, Its maintenance cost ÃŽs yery 'smallu cota- -parison with tht value of the service iV rtuders. At the Library Board meeting last week Chairman Robert Thornpson snggested thiat srnnething should be donetVoperpetu- ate. the -rnem ory off those whose faith, vision and 'efforts made the library inl Whitby possible. Mhen tht library pro- p)osai was first 'brouglit before tht public it met with 'considerable opposition, but tht mean and wornen who felt that Whitby -needed sucli,, an institution -did net lose- heart, and the resuit was that tht library wvas built. A substantial -grant off $10,000 was. obtained,- rorn tht laVe Andrew Car- ilegie; tht County off Ontario Old Girls' Association provided $500 for a lot and for sanie years afterwards miade an annual contribution off $100 towards the mainten- --ance.-off the institution. Me-rbers off the first iibrary board of 1911 had tht cour- age of- théir convictionîs and tht resuit is the fine building and equiprnt on Dun- dA. >Street West today. - ' ertainly, sornething shouid be--doetot hono.' týe pioners l tht library niovernent lu WhltI~, Tht names of emnad woeen Uike the late Iya ,.Barclay t lte rs..&nrew1V~Rosse the late n.

It certaluly is8 not right. that men should be aliowed ta stand .in front off windows where goode are- dis- played, and it is the height off ignorance and imposition te stand in a man "a door- wsy obstructing patron$. Last Saturday niglit for well over two, heurs a- bunch of niefr stood in front off two store windows on, Dundas Street Weet, and sorne stood at the store etrances. On the -other aide of the strdet another bunch off men stoQd, spread out al ever thé sidewalk, and sitting on the post office steps. The samne condi tions pre- vailed lu front off the Dominion Bank. Tht town bylawv strictly prohibits loafing cf this kind and provîdes that men shall ftând out te the street curb. It shotud not' b 'necessary for merchants to have to put up with tht nuisance- already referred to, ner should it be necessary for tht post off- fiÇ,e authorities ta régister . frequent cern- plaints ý regarding the. building belng uzed as a roost or grandstand. Tht Gazette and Chtonicle has an several occasions printed leWters from outsiders, rnostly wamen, who have conxplained that they do flot like tai have to pass long lines of men when they corne ta tawn te shop. The enfarcernent off tht town Bylaw ici the only solution that we can, see for the comrplaint.s. Apparently somfe men have ab. solutely no regard for the rights off others.
