As yet there is no indication of a decrease in the cost of books. A few years ago the average cost per volume added to our library was $1.00. Now it is $1.80. But, even at this, we feel that our people are getting many times the worth of their money. Figuring an average of three hours reading for each of the 60,230 books circulated, Fullerton people got 180,690 hours of entertainment or information which would be worth $45,172 at an ordinary movie figure of 25 cents per hour. This does not include the extensive use of books and periodicals in the library building. But all this service actually cost the taxpayers $7482.64. Cars for Rent without drivers. N.

This will be the first institute held by the League at the new place, and delegates are looking forward to the gathering with more than ordinary interest. There are 1100 acres in the tract and it is the purpose of the church people to develop it into permanent grounds for religious assemblies, available for use at any time of the year, but specially attractive in summer by reason of its close proximity to the coast. A portion of the grove is to be laid out in lots and sold for summer cottages and other interests of the church in So. Cal. Ordinarily from 500 to 700 delegates attend these summer institutes of the Epworth league in addition to those who go unofficially to enjoy the programs. The basis of representation is one delegate to every 14 members, the Fullerton organization being entitled to seven delegates. Mrs. Ormand Harlow will go from here in her capacity of district secretary and Rev. and Mrs. H. B. Clark will attend a part of the session.
