IN MEMORY
OF THOMPSON

Bismarck, N. D., April 29.-The fol-
lowing tribute to the memory of Frank
j. Thompson was spread on the min
utes of the public library commission
of North Dakota at the meeting held
at Grand Forks, April %, 1910
The Public Library commission of
North Dakota records with deep sor-
row the death of Frar ]. Thompson
Not only the library commission, of
which body he was the first president,
but library interests in general have
suffered an irreparable loss i'm his all
too early demise. In all that bene-
fitted the community he had deep
and abiding interest, and chiefly on
that account did he devote so much
time and attention to library matters
for he recognized that the public liz
brary was lone of the. great modern
forces in. shaping human thought and
action.
Realizing that only through central
ization and organization could library.
interests in North Dakota be fully pro-
NOTED, Mr.. Thompson lent "a A. large
share of his energies in bringing about
the establishment of the public library
commission. This, as we'll as his other
activities in library affairs, was a
labor of love. He entered into the
work of the library commission with
heart and soul, and by creating a
popular sentiment in It's favor, he laid
foundation so deep and broad that
future generations can build thereon.
At this meeting IT was also decided
that the public library commission
make an exhibit OF fits work, under the
general direction of its secretary, Mrs.
M. C. Budlong,, at the state fair to be
held in Fargo in July.
