"This report," said Moon, "is an exercise in annual concision It consists of a single page, folded three ways vertically and once horizontally. It gives--just the facts ma'm.

"What made this year's effort notable, and just a little different, is that the horizontal foldover, colored a pale green, carried a poem--'The Poet and the by William Carlos Williams. And the poem carried these sentiments in the closing lines. "Only the imagination is real! I have declared it time without end. "Here, one felt instinctively, was a librarian who cared about literature and about the state of the world and cared enough to try to relate his library to both through his annual report to the people he serves." Perhaps a Cityans should take another look at this fine report. Copies are available at the library.
