THE HAMILTON LIBRARY.
TO THE BDH'OR, Sir,—Through the medium of your columns I hava noticed with great pleasure that energetic hands have been at work trying to put the library on a more satisfactory footing, and 1 am very pleased to see that they seem likely to be rewarded with success. I consider that Hamilton is altogether behind the age, and that it is lime its inhabitants awoke to the fact. It must be obvious to all that a town is not worthy of the name without a good reading-room open at all hours. Putting the townspeople aside, our friends in from the couutry often have to wait lor tome hours. Then again, hardly a day passes but people come by the morning trains on the Te Awamutu or Cambridge lines, and have to wait for the afternoon train to take them to the mining district. I think most of us have had personal experience in this line, aud .know how tiresome it is waiting about. I would therefore ask you all to unite and help those who have taken this matter in hand in every way you can, so that our centre of population shall no longer be a laughing stock to the outside public—l am, etc., Teller.
