VILLAGE TAKES OVER LIBRARY
Action of the North Mankato Coun-
Gil on Saturday Night.


From Mondays Daily.
The council put in busy session
at it's meeting held Saturday even
ing. Several matters Of much inn
portance were acted upon favorably.
A petition of the majority of the
property owners praying that a &C.
ment sidewalk be ordered built on
the north side of South avenue, be-
tween Center street and Cross
street from South avenue on the
west side of Cross street to the
alley was granted and resolution
was adopted ordering the sidewalk
constructed.
ported a few needed repairs to the
streets and recommended that a
drain be laid across the road near
George Fletcher's home that would
carry off the surface water from
the hill.
A communication from the public
library board was presented to the
council. 1t contained bill of sale
presenting in detail the condition
of the library and general invoice,
valuation and liabilities of the Lii
brary association. In the past the
council has allowed requests for aid
to the library board under protest,
claiming it illegal, as the library
property was not in control OF the
council.
A resolution was adopted accepting
the property of the Library assOcia-
ton, whereupon the library becomes
village property and making it legal
for the council to make the small
appropriation which will be needed
later.
The election of the present Off
GERS and trustees of the library was
approved by the council.
| A written complaint against the
nuisance of a COW being staked out
near his residence was received from
A. w. Strickland. The matter was
| referred to the proper committee
with power to act

lighting committee, reported that

the board Principal Mccormick and
teachers were requested to prepare
a course of study The need of
school rules and course of study
outlined is fully realized. At pres
ent nothing is at hand to guide the
new teachers so that the work of
the various rooms may work in har-
mony.
The copies of the rules published
by the school board about ten years
ago were exhausted several years
ago and are now entirely inadequate
to the present needs. After much
time and labor the new outline
course Of study is completed. 1t is
a lengthy document containing rules
covering the discipline Of scholars
and the duties Of principal, teachers
and janitor.
After some discussion it was de-
cided expedient that the members
Of the school board read and consider
the rules and outline individually
and at special meeting to be held
uCAt CNCllhS ouCPt lhOih with
such amendments and additions as
the board gee fit to make.
1t was thought necessary to have
a vice president of the board who
could perform the duties of the
president while that official was out
of town or otherwise unable to act.
On motion, w. E. Stewart was unan-
imously elected vice president Of
the school board.

Bolts and Bars Should Be Tighten
ed; Concrete Floor Would Be a
Money Saver.
from Thursdays Oafry

From Thursdays Dairy.
That the present bridge which
spans the Minnesota river should
be overhauled and a number of the
bolts and bars frightened, is evident
from the comments made by sew
eral gentlemen who spoke on the
second bridge proposition at the
North Mankato Commercial club
meeting last night. Another thing
suggested was laying concrete
floor, if it can be done, instead of
frequently replanking the structure.
Concrete would be a. saving of
money to this city. An expert should
be employed to make an examination
of the bridge and have repairs made
wherever they are found necessary,
