fund this year was created from 3
mill tax, an increase of n mill over
last year. To secure the sum asked
by the library board for next year 1t
will be necessary to impose library
tax of at least Az mills and possibly
nearer mills, the maximum millage
allowable under the law.
Tentative Budget Prepared.
Estimating the expenses Of the
var 1922, the library board has
prepared a tentative budget which
has been submitted to the city coun-
Gil. The budget includes the following
items:
Salaries. $500: Janitor 1920:
books. $4,000; binding, $500; periodi-
cal subscriptions. s225; fuel, $500;
light, Sis; repairs and improvements
500: printing and library supplies,
1925; insurance, s275; newspaper
subscriptions. $751; telephone, $45;
miscellaneous, $3.50.
Last year the library board asked
s1775 but some items ere necessarily
cut below the estimates because the
board did not receive the whole
amount.{
Many toms Increased.
Most of the items making up the
budget have been increased. Last
years budget was as follows: Sal
aries, s4,100; janitor. $500: books, ST.
900; binding. $500; periodical sub
scription, 5000; fuel, 5000; light, SITS;
repairs and improvements. 5000;
printing and supplies, $175; insur-
L.o ,;,o%t
i $40, telephone, $35; miscellaneous
1880.
The policy of the board the last
few years has been to be economical.
In the hope that normal conditions
might be resumed. making 1t possible
to make necessary repairs and pur-
chase needed books without asking
for a large increase in the allowance.
This policy. perhaps, has been one Of
false economy. for the library now
faces expenditures which would not
have been necessary had repairs been
made and books purchased as needed.
Building in Need OF Repair.
The entire lower floor Of the IL
hrary building should be reprinted
and this will result In AN increase in
the repairs and improvements item.
The board has delayed the pur-
chase of books badly needed for
school work and other purposes. be-
cause of the lack Of funds, and the
book item for the coming year has
been doubled
Other items of the budget have
been Increased proportionately to the
increased cost of labor and supplies.
The tentative budeee has been re-
ceived by the council and placed on
file.

BUILD ROAD AUGUST 4

Club and Marion Township Farm
4 ers to Rebuild Wilcox Road Nsxt
Wednesday-Local Men Promise to
Do Days Work.
If all the plans made are carried
out dirt will fly along the Wilcox
road-the first east and west road
running into North Third avenue
north of the city--Wednesday, Aug.
4. That Is the date set by retail
merchants of the Marshalltown Club
and farmers OF Marion township, whu
are cooperating in the effort to
grade this bad road and put 1t in
condition for the rest of the year.
With borrowed equipment, Fred
Detrick, foreman of the city street
department to boss the dirt moving
job and with machinery and as many
volunteer city and county laborers
as can be secured, the plan is to
grade the two miles in one day.
"One hundred men. $40 and a
shovel" is the slogan of the city
promoters of the movement. Marion
township has promised the help Of
men, machinery and teams The city
will furnish one tractor and grader.
Slips, wheelers and other equipment
will be borrowed wherever they can
be secured.
The city gang is to meet at the
Marshalltown Club at $50 in the
morning, with shovels overalls and
a determination to work all day. No
lunch is TO be served at the club at
noon, presumably because everyone
will be on the road grading job who
ordinarily takes lunch there. But
lunch will be prepared at the club
and taken to the road workers at
noon. Retail merchants are expected
to show their appreciation of the
country trade from northeast of the
city by getting on the job early and
staying late, or providing a man,
team or money. f. NJ. Wilbur is
managing the arrangements from the
oity's end.
