the past twenty-five years has been
the efficient church clerk, rendered

PUBLIC LIBRARY.
Women Of Scotland Neck Supply this
Long Felt Need. You Should Help.

The long felt need of a public lib
rary In Scotland Neck is now reali-
cation, and this by the grace and
effort of the noble women of our
town. Several years ago Fiction
Club was organized for the purpose
of securing number of good books
for the pleasure and elevation of
some of our women. They had only
one business meeting a year and 81 10
was contributed by each member and
books were bought and circulated
among the members. This Club
grew rapidly and about two years
ago the Club was organized into
two sections. The next year it grew
to four sections, or about one hun
dred members. At the close Of the
year, with out especial effort to save
any money it was found that the Or
ganization had on hand about $24.O0,
and it was decided to start, even
with 50 small an amount a public
library.
They realized the need of refer
ence books and a committee, consist
ing Of Mrs. A. L. burlington, Mrs.
R. C.. Josey and Mrs. H. l. Clark,
were appointed to select some suit
able reference book. This resulted
in the purchase of ten volumes Of
the Encyclopedia Britannica, and
these volumes in addition to the
books already belonging to the Club
now form the nucleus to what is
soon to be a great public library for
the benefit of the citizens Of our
town. The library is now in room
al the graded school and arrange
ments will be made to have it open
for the present two afternoons in
each week when books will be issued.
This is a great movement and
should be literally supported by eve
ry citizen of our town. Contribu-
tons of books or money will be glad
ly received and it is hoped that
many books will be donated by the
citizens and that the library will be
greatly increased at once, Those
who have books to contribute will
nlease send them in at once, as the
Committee have on hand small
amount with which to purchase
books and the book you will give
might be one that the Committee
would buy. This will prevent dupli-
eating and give a larger variety of
good books.
The Round Table Club, will, at
end of it's year, donate many good
books to the public library.

work on the farm of Mr.. J. A. Kitch-
in, near Hamilton. Nuts skull was
crushed and he is still unconscious.
The negroes are both about twenty
one years old and were at work in
the field. When the dispute arose
Jones dealt the terrible blow and left
for parts unknown. Officers are on
the lookout for him, but so far he
has successfully eluded them.
