With a donation of $50:00 from Y.P.M.I, the total assets were $173:40. From this sum they paid running expenses $16.72, brought books $127.37 and closed With a suplus of $30.68, • A precedent was set For seventy seven years the Mechanic's In- stitute.- and the library Which followed it had a credit balance with the exception of 1903 when the debits:and credits were equal. The hooks were chosen from a catalogue printed annually by the ideal printer only the Librarian had access to the shelves. Prob- ably Florence Pope, his assistant attended to this duty. The, second year a government • grant was received and a' ceunty grant 'in 1894. This system continued until 1897.

In the three years following the fire, book purchases amounted to $1069.78, By 1904 the Village grant had increased to $70,00.
