she studied the two with her chin rest

Horton stood silent. 1t was tea

given for the benefit of the Hurley
Library Tuesday afternoon. The sum
of S25 10 was realized. The ladies
who had charge of the affair wish to
express their thanks to the IronwOod
ladies and also to the people of Hur-

proceeds will be used to pay for sub

The balance left of the above
amount will be used towards the pur-
chase of some useful piece of furni-
ture to be added to the library equip

This is the second affair given for
this purpose within the past six
months, and the way the people have
responded in each instance shows
that at least portion of our people
are alive to the influence to be WELD

leaves us to hope that our village
may some day boast of an institution
bearing the title worthy Carnegie
