A Reading Club.

During the past week there has been
considerable informal talk among MINI
Der of our citizens regarding the advisa-
bility and necessity of organizing club
for the purpose of securing all the lead
ing newspapers anu periodicals, and hay
ing them on file at some suitable place
where all members of the club can have
the benefit of them. The TRIBUNE some
months since advocated similar organ
ization, and will now heartily second
any proceedings looking TO that end.
Such an organization. under proper rules
and regulations, would be of great bene-
fit to the place, for it would put within
the reach OF all,newspaper reading which
they could secure in no other manner, and
at a comparatively trifling cost individu-
ally. Such a room, fitted up attractively.
would be very pleasant place for the
members to meet together and spend
time which, in many cases, would be
spent without deriving much profit. 1t
would not cost very large sum to rent
a suitable room and furnish it with
chairs. tables, paper racks, and last, but
not least, With papers, and this sum di-
viIed among the number who would be
willing to share the expense, the cost to
each member would be very small. We
hope there will be interest enough taken
in this matter to organize a club at once
and get it in operation so that we could
secure its benefits this winter.
