good one SO far as it goes, and is we'll
patronized by the families Of Morris.
The librarian informs us there are
500 books out all the time. There
are very fine books in it and room
for plenty more. The tax for its
support is so small that when the cur
rent expenses are paid there is moth
ing left for books. The library is 50
popular, that public entertainments
would be we'll patrOniZed for its sake
alone, besides, there should be some
good Entertainments for the sake of
the entertainments. With the judi
cious, intelligent board of managers
we have, we need not fear but that a
good selection Of books Will be made.
And if the board will take steps III
the direction of increasing The num-
Der of books, they will meet hearty
responce from the people. We
shonld have four times as large Il
library as we now have, ard we hope
we will soon see it SO.

On Friday night last Tom Cain
raised cain, while under the influence
of too much booze. The marsh
took charge Of him, and Squire Gill
lespie sent him up for fifteen days to
cool off. From the number of com.
mitments this fall, it looks as If it
wouldn't be a bad thing for the village
council to have chain gang, and
make them work for their board.
No doubt many of these gentlemen
would prefer boarding with Mrs.
Munro free, rather than work for
board. Change in the treatment OF
