FREE PUBLIC LIBRARY.-One of the impor-
tant things that would attract people to reside
in this new and rising town is public library
open daily to the citizens. A movement has
already been made in this direction, for about
two years ago a few energetic and public spirit
ed ladies of District No. 8 (Woodford's Corner
associated themselves together for the purpose
of collecting and maintaining a popular library
of standard works in all departments of litera-
ture. Their efforts have been eminently sue
cessful, for by their persevering efforts an as
ISOLATION has been formed, in which the annual
payment is only one dollar; and by this means
and the liberal donation of residents in the To-
cality, library of about 600 volumes has been
accumulated and all the books are of the most
substantial character The library is now locat-
ed in a room of the new brick school-house on
Ocean street, where all the arrangements are
the very pink of neatness. The library is
open to the public on Wednesday afternoons
and Saturday evenings, and considerable
number already avail themselves of the privi
leges. The association is DESTROYS of extending
its sphere of usefulness until the whole town
shall be able to share in the advantages thereby
presented The extension of such library, by
opening its doors daily, and especially every
evening, would tend as much as anything to
elevate the educational and literary character
of the younger portion of this community in
particular, while it serves to afford a healthful
source of innocent pleasure to all. Could the
town, as authorized by statute, render some
pecuniary aid to such an enterprise, it would be
money well spent. The association proposes, at
the annual meeting which is to be held about
the first of next month, to take measures to en-
large the sphere of the library by opening it to
the residents of the whole town, and if rooms
could be obtained at some central point ON the
line of the horse cars it would be very desira-

WEsTBRooK AND DEERING.-The County
| Commissioners have made their award in the
matters in dispute between Westbrook and
Deering, on which hearing was had some
| time since. The Commissioners decide that
the town of Deering shall pay to the town of
Westbrook the sum of $500 in money, in order
to equalize the burdens of supporting the roads
and bridges of the respective towns. The sum
of 1925 is to be paid by the town of Deering to
the town of Westbrook for the right and title
which the town of Westbrook has in the Town
House and the land on which it stands. TWEEN.
ty-fve paupers are given to Deering to support
and ten to Westbrook. The expenses of the
hearing, amounting to 1896. So are to be divided
equally and to be paid to d. w. Fessende1
within thirty days.
