A committee of the directors
made long search for the eX-
actly proper color for the walls
of the room. At last thnN found
at the Acknowledgement store
a yellow towel which suited
them precisely. This was
tackled on Il door in the library
room, and Mr.. Dixon, the paint
er, made his mixture to match
it. The windows will let in
ample sunlight from the east
and south. and the yellow walls
will enhance the cheerfulness of
the place,
This summers experience
demonstrated the popularity of
the library. 1t was open two
afternoons a week, and about 80
books We're taken out each day.
The average attendance of chill
dren was between 60 and 20.

Would Search Rum Boats


 Windsor. Ont, June 2l R-Search of liquor boats by Canadian officials for firearms is advocated by Crown Attorney James s. Allan as means of combating liquor smuggling.
 Allan advanced his suggestion in opposing release on bail of Alfred J. Woods. wealthy Amherstburg dock owner. arrested on charge of receiving a camera stolen by rum runner from a newspaper pho- tographer they kidnapped last Tues day.
 Allan said that liquor runners are permitted to land unmolested and unquestioned while other persons en- tering the country by ferry are closely scrutinized. He added that a stricter enforcement by the United States river patrols has weeded out the weakened rum runners and that the gangs now at work are undoubt- cdly the toughest of rum runners, fellows who'll not be frightened by talk. and I think it was men of this character who were responsible for Tuesdays affair at Amherstburg.
 Woods was freed under $2,000 bail to report next Tuesday for trial.
 A complete report of the gun bat tie Tuesday between rum running craft and United States patrol boat will be forwarded to Washing ton. announced Walter s. Petty, act ing collector of customs at Detroit. Petty said his investigation showed that the rum runners on being chased back towards the Windsor docks fired four shots. at his men after reaching Canadian waters.
