Second, many persons whose good
custom it is to buy books of all kinds
in order to keep abreast with the
times, would often do we'll to thin
out their libraries from time to time
of all such books as they no longer
require and send them to the college
library.
Third, book funds as gifts of
classes may be established for the
purchase of books of general or spe-
cial departments in order that no de-
partment may be handicapped in it's
work.
The college very often would so
keenly appreciate such gifts as more
than to compensate the givers for
their trouble.
Through the generosity of Mr.. F..
e. Sanger the library has received a
rare 10-volume work on law, Went

has presented a valuable collection
of medical books. Other gifts have

PLANS FOR PAVING
SPRING ST. CHANGED
City Council Votes to Make Needed
Road Thirty Feet Wide Instead
of Twenty-twO-New Esti-
mate Necessary

The hearing on the preliminary
resolution declaring the intention of
the city council to improve by paw
ing, grading and filling approximate
ly 1900 feet of Spring street, from
the new concrete bridge to the city
limits, was postponed for two weeks
to permit of the preparation by the
city engineer of a new preliminary
estimate of cost, to conform to the
changed plans of the council. The
city fathers voted to make about
two-thirds of the entire road 30 feet
wide instead of % feet, as originally
specified. Inasmuch as this change
would cost more than 10 per cent
over the engineers estimate, it is
necessary to readjust the figures be-
fore the hearing is held. The new
plans of the council are to make the
road 80 feet wide from the bridge
to the point where it crosses the N.
P. tracks, with the balance % feet
wide, as originally specified.
The preliminary estimate of En-
gineer Edwards on the former speci-
fications indicate that nearly two
thirds of the entire cost, which was
set at $5O28.10, will fall on the
Northern Pacific and O.-W. r. & N.
two a1y lAl
with the road for the greater part
of the distance. 1t is probable that
the changed plans will add approx
mately Is per cent to the cost.
Engineer Edwards estimated the
cost of the improvem ent under the
original specifications as follows:
$40 cubic yards solid rock
excavation, at $2.75 per
yard ... -. ......S 9"o.oo
1850 cubic yards earth fill,
at soc .......... 4oS.oo
$500 square yards btu
minous macadam, at 90c 3,16S.OO
Ten per cent added for en-
gineerng costs and Incl
dentals 49,. ........ 457.1O
Total estimated cost. SIS, O2S.1O
The engineers spread of cost
shows that $2S52, or over half the
entire cost. would be assessed
against the n. P. company, with
$8926 against the O.-W. r. & n. COM
pany. the balance to be borne by the
owners of abutting lots in College
Park addition. including tracts U. S
and r, block 10, and lots 4, 5, 6, Z,
-, IS and IA of block 3.
The resolution will be open for
a hearing at the next meeting of the
council, and the much needed i'm
provement will be rushed with all
possible haste.
