The Gaithersburs people are much in
terested in having library in their town.
The field director of the Maryland Public
Library Commission has been in town and
found everybody in enthusiastic favor of
this addition to the towns interests. Many
persons suggested a Soldiers Memorial
Library. If this should 90 into effect, Mr.
Frank Hutton would offer a site for the
building. Other places have also been
suggested. A meeting for everybody to
discuss the matter and make plans was to
have been held last week, but the continu-
ously bad weather and sickness prevented
the gathering. When this condition of
affairs changes the meeting will be held.
What was characterized by all as the
best show seen in Rockville in years" was
given last Friday evening in the Seco Mo-
ton Picture Parlor. 1t was participated in
by large company Of Marines. who are
travelling the country in the interest of
enlistments in this branch of the U. S.
service. Their show included songs. jests.
dances. manual of arms, and music by a
large jazz band. This show was absolutely
free to those attending through the kind
ness of the Seco management in co-opera-
ton with the Marines. These boys, after
all. are our boys, and the way in which
their various stunts were received showed
that they are near to the hearts of America.
Rockville will long remember their jokes
and jazzes.
