Williams Items.

I wonder if the people OF Williams
appreciate the branch library as they
should. A short time ago / was in
the Enterprise Office where the books
are kept and it seemed to me that
the splendid selection of non fiction
books were getting altogether too
little circulation. Fiction is all right
in its place, to while away an idle
hour with, but whatever ballast or
moral the work Of fiction contains
must be hidden under a sugar coated
exterior. Occasionally a novel con-
.tains a real vital message. Such a
book is "The Brown Mouse" by Her
bert Quick. Every member Of the
school board and every farmer in the
community ought to read it before it
leaves the library. / vas talking to
a man a few days ago who is per-
haps the best informed man in the
county, or indeed in this part Of the
state. on the subject of books and he
expressed the wish that every farmer
in the county might read it. Have
you read it, If not e that you do
before it leaves the library.
