What the Art Exhibit Will
Do For Our Community

The Art Exhibit offers a splendid
opportunity to begin work in the
Schools, of stimulating an appreci-
alton of good pictures among the
children. 1t will reach out into Il
homes and awaken a great interest in
pictures among the parents. 1t will
bring the entire community in closer
touch with the schools and their
needs and will provide a substantial
fund for school room decorations.

Methodist Sunday School Library.
The ". +. Sunday School OF YER
sailles will establish a s. S. Library,
the third collection in each month to
be given to- this fund. The library
will be a memorial dedicated to the
memory of Bro. John f. Gibbs, who
was the superintendent for the past
two years.
The Library Board having this
matter in charge are: Amos A..
Knoop, Mrs. VIM. Forman, Mrs.
Elwyin Price, Mrs. Neva Taylor and
Miss Eva Duff.
We understand it is not the inten-
ton to solicit either funds or books
for their library, yet we are sure that
either would be greatly accepted and
appreciated by the Library 30 ard
and Sunday school.
BY the generous provision OF the
Horace K. Turner Company OF
Boston, Mass, we are able to take
advantage of the famous exhibit and
we will plan as far as possible &c
bring our young people to an ap'
probation OF the treasures OF ar
which will be brought to them. The
