Library Board viii Enforce the Rule
Without Exception.

Library Board Will Enforce the Ru'e
Without Exception.
The board of trustees of the public
library at it's regular monthly meeting
Monday night, instructed the librarian
to strictly enforce the rule that patrons
of the library must not loan Their
cards. On numerous occasions da1n-
ages done to books have not been pald
owing to the fact that the book was
drawn on borrowed card. Where
cards are presented by other than their
owner the librarian was instructed to
take them up and cancel them. Ow-
ing to the complaint made to the board
that patrons were not aware OF the
new books which were purchased from
time to time, a new book rack is to be
purchased on which the newest BOOKS
will be kept where they can be plainly
seen.
The first monthly report of Mrs.
Grace King Haviland, librarian, snow
ed seventy-one books to have been
added by donation and purchase ana
fifty-two new readers reglsterea.
Books loaned during the month num-
bered 3,206, of which 6S per cent was
fiction. There were 1920 visitors In tine
library during the period and the cash
receipts from fines and other sources
amounted to $13.67.

who is noted over the state as a trav-
eler on tickets furnished by charitable
institutions, is very similar to the cat
which always came back. Three times
the officials Of that town have sent
Mrs. King on her way with a charity
ticket. and each time she has returned
by the same means. Each time they
thought to be rid Of her, but each time
she bobbed up again from the destina-
ton to which they had dispatched her.
In desperation the charity officers fin
ally provided her with ticket carrying
her farther than the others. BY the
way of Cedar Rapids. thence south on

Snow Drifting Badly.
The snow is drifting badly and dur
Ing the better part of the day 1t was
barely possible to distinguish objects
the width Of the street. Drifts four
and five feet were piled up In many
places, and for a time the north side
of the half block between First avenue
and the alley east, on Main, was nm
passable. 1t Is next to an impossible
ty to estimate the snowfall, owing to
the drifting. No attempt has been
made by Weather Observer Jones 10
make an official report on the depth,
and one will not be made until the
drifting ceases. 1t is thought that
conservative estimate, at noon. would
place the average depth at about nVe
or six inches. In places, where the
wind has had full sweep, drifts five and
six feet in depth are found. The pre-
cipitation resulting from the rain and
snowfall for the twenty -four hours
ending at 1880 this morning, was SO
Of an inch. Mondays maximum IN
temperature was 81, and was regis
tered as the minimum. Four was also
registered at 1880 this morning.
Storm Increasing in Violence.
The storm began increasing in vio-
lence after about II o'clock and con-
tinued thruout the afternoon. A pre-
diction of continued snow and cold
wave lends encouragement. The high
wind of the middle of the day made
1T next to an impossibiltty to face It
and so sharp We're the particles OF
snow that they stung the faces of pc
destrians bitterly. If the wind con-
tinues tonight and colder weather sets
In, business will be practically at
standstill tomorrow.

Marshalltown Base Ball Assocla-
ton Planning to Secure
Money For the Team
TO BE GIVEN IN THE SPRING
Entertainment Committee of the Board
Of Directors Has Decided to Put on
a Weeks Entertainment Early in the
Sprins-Date and Place Not Yet De-
termined.

The entertainment committee Of the
Base Ball Association has decided to
hold fair, either late in the winter or
early in the spring as a means of rails
ing funds for next seasons team. The
date and place has not been determined
upon vet, but will be in n few weeks.
The members of this committee are
DIR. M. U. Cheshire and Lloyd II. Max
we'll.
The fair given last spring netted the
association 1928 and was a success in
every way. 1t proved one of the best
drawing cards for the entertainment
loving public given in the city last year
and was attended by class which do
not usually patronize fairs. 1t is be-
lieved by the members of the commit
tee to be the simplest and easiest way
of raising the money needed. Stock
could be sold but there Is some oppo-
sition to this plan. There Is now about
$500 in the hands of the treasurer,
which was left over from last season,
and with the amount which could be
secured by weeks fair the associa-
ton would be in as good shape to be-
gin the year as 1t was when the league
was formed. There will be no uniforms.
and very little equipment to buy as the
white suits are almost as good as new
and with cleaning and mending the
gray uniforms will do for part OF the
season. There will also be but little
expense this season In getting the
grounds in shape. Finkle's park Will
be used, as the association has no 9TH
er place which could be fitted up with
out great cost, and it is the general
opinion among the directors that no
better place could be found. Next year,
should the league still be in existence
a new park may be built.

ago. weakened in the fourth inning and
nv the time the round was completed
the high school had gathered eight
runs. With this handicap against them
the Imperials were never able to catch
up, and went trailing along IN second
place. The high school Fingered up to
the limit, and was in the game from
start to finish all the time. What with
the roofing from the gallery and the
number of disputes over decisions
which had to be settled the game was
by far the noisiest Of the season. The
high school had the best of it, now
ever all the way thru, and outplayed
its opponents. The teams lined up as
follows:
High school-Moore, catch: G. Kirk,

Street Cars Have Trouble.

Street car traffic was practically sus-
pended most of the day, altho the cars
managed to keep moving on all points
of the line north of the Chicago Great
Western tracks. The grade south of
the Great Western was too much of
proposition, for the snow-covered track
and slippery rails would result in con-
tinued burning out of cars. For this
reason traffic on that portion of the
line was abandoned. 1t made but little
difference how much work was done to
clean away the snow the wind undid

trackmen could do in hours. An idea
