condition that the town should keep it
in repair and furnish librarian and allow
the use of the rooms for the Village
Improvement Society's meetings. Also
to see II the town would vote to pay Mr..
F. F. Storer for carrying his scholars to
school for the year of 1902 g. Some of
our agitators who have the interest of
the town at heart and find bugaboo
under every act, had been busy and
circulated the story that it was to cost
the town five hundred dollars per year
for librarian and the farmers were
interested at once and the meeting was
decidedly spicy, the discussion at times
becoming strikingly personal. However
when 1t was found that the town would
not be asked to pay more than seventy
five dollars per year for this purpose
nearly everyone was willing to accept
the generous offer of Miss Clark and 1t
was 80 voted. In regard to the other
article concerning conveyance Of children
the school board have at times been at
their wits end to know how to provide
for all with the amount of money they
have to do it with and this was one of
the cases where the parties felt aggrieved
and therefore brought the matter before
the town. After short discussion it
was voted to pay Mr.. Storer fifteen
dollars as compensation
