Judging by the figures that are being quoted by Miss Ruth Cowgill, chief of the foreign division of the Detroit Pub- lic Library, continued gains are to be expected during the cooling year. Miss Cowgill has prepared a re- port on the progress of her depart- ment, and the result is a very in- teresting one. In the first place, 10,800 books in Yiddish were cir- culated by the library last year. Secondly, Yiddish ranks fourth among the foreign language circu- lations, and because French, which ranks third, is said to have such a large circulation for academic and school purposes, Yiddish is placed in third place by library authori- ties. All told the library has 20,- 000 books in 26 foreign languages, and a circulation of 100,000 is reg- istered for the past year. Newcomb-David Co., Inc.
