MEANING OF THE PUBLIC LIBRARY Cities and towns are now for the first time, and chiefiy in this country, erecting altars to the gods of good fel- lowship, joy and learning. These altars are our public libraries. We had long ago our buildings of city and state, our halls of legislation, our courts of justice. But these all speak more or less of wrongdoing, of justice and injustice, of repression. Most of them touch on partisan- ship and bitterness of feeling. We have had, since many centuries, in... all our cities, the many meeting places of re- ligious sects — our chapels, cliurclies and cathedrals. The^' stand for so much that is good, but they have not brought together the communities in which they are placed. A church is not always the center of the best life of all who live within the shadow of its spire. For several generations we have been building temples to the gods of learning and good citizenship — our schools. And they have come nearer to bringing together for the highest purpose the best impulses of all of us than have any other institutions.
