Page B'our THE PILOT, Southern Pines and Aberdeen, North Carolina Friday, November 16, 1934. Library Discontinues Free Scliool Service Cameron anti Community Lack of Fund^ Require a Charge for All Books Until Revenue Increases The observance this week through out the country of Children's Book Week calls attention locally to the important service the Southern Pines Library has been able to render to the public school. For the past two years, in cooperation with the school au thorities, the library has had a week ly free day for school children. On that day children trom the public school have been granted full use of the facilities of the library en tirely free, without membership or book fees. In addition a number of books, some of which were purchased es pecially for this purpo,''e, were loan ed free of charge to the school li brary and circulated through that agency. The degree to which that service has been appreciated by the children can be visibly measured by a glance at the exhibits placed by the library throi'gti the generous co operation of the firms in question, in the windows of Pa.il T. Barnum, Inc., Penders Store and the Highland Hardware House. Unfortuntely this free service to the school has been discontinued this year. The reason ir. a simple one, and one easily remedied—lack of funds. The library has been forced to make a charge for every service rendered in order to secure much needed in come. An increase in memberships sufficient to supply an income ade quate to cover the operating costs of the library will make it possible to resume the free school service.
