The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1878-10-26

10 he Editor Of Tie Leader 80.
I beg leave to call the attention of
! the citizens Of Cheyenne to the fact
that we have in our midst an institu-
ton which is doing more good than
almost anything else which we have of
a public nature.
| refer to the ladies' reading room
association. This society was crgan-
lied some time last summer, and,
although it has been kept together
mainly by the p~ersevering efforts of a
few Of the ladies who have given a large
portion Of their time to its interests,
and who have been sustained by a few
gentlemen who have contributed funds
to supply newspapers, periodicals, ETC.,
to keep 1t up; it has been a constant
struggle to meet the expenses incident
to such an enterprise.
And, small as Is the supply of read
ing matter, 1t has constantly been re-
sorted to BY a class of young men, who,
but for that source of enjoyment, would
have been compelled to look for recrea-
tion In other localities, and in all prob
ability would have found 1t in the
various places of, to say the least,
doubtful reputation.
My object in asking a place In your
columns is simply to call the attention
Of the people to the fact of the socie-
TVS existence, and urge them to con-
tribute something by which its further
usefulness may be promoted. Several
ladies and gentlemen each contribute
one dollar per month toward Its funds,
while mere membership may be OBJ
tanned for the insignificant sum of
twenty-five cents. Thus far the SUBJ
scriptions have been sufficient to barely
keep the institution alive, while tile
substantial interests of the city requires
1t to be in a flourishing condition.
1t is therefore the desire of the men,
bers who know its value to earnestly
urge upon the people Of the town to
contribute their mites to place it on
such a basis as to supply a want which
has long been felt; viz: a place of resort
for the young men OF the town, in
hopes that in the near future it may
grow into a reading which will be
a credit to those who ushered it into
existence. A VISITOR.
