The Carnegie Library will soon be
under course of construction. The con-
tract was let year ago to Contractor
J. w. O'Conner of Kalamazoo. War
conditions however necessitated the
cancelling of the contract. On Tues
day evening of this week, the job was
again let to Mr.. O'Conner for the sum
of $11 $50. Terms of the contract call
for the completion of the work before
August first of this year. 1t has been
so long since the library question was
first discussed here, that some of the

donate her late husbands extensive
library, provided a suitable building
was provided. Then Mrs. w. j. Sell
lick gave the sum of $4,000 for the
purchase Of a suitable site for the
building; Mr.. Andrew Carnegie open
ed his heart for the sum Of SIC, 900
and the village voted the sum of
$4,000 last March. The contract price
of the building, $11 ,250, leaves a sub
