They worked hard and succeeded in collecting a splendid Library, consisting of modern Encyclopedias, all of Shakespeare's works, Scott's Dickens, the masterpieces of many of our standard writers and the latest Action. Each year new books have been added, and just recently a number of the beet of the pew novels have been added. We wish to remind the people that the Library is here for their use and la open every Wednesday from two to three o'clock. The dollar fee, paid by all who have use of the books. Is necessary -to keep up the Library. We waat to increase the membership of the "Library Association" and add, more books to the collection. As s protection to the books, "Library peculations" have been poatadn each volume, so there can bo ao misunderstanding in what is expected f the person holding a book.
