Ing and furnishing Neighborhood
House will be closed as there will be
no further use for a library there" "
DR.. Bowerman said. The cost of the
library will be about 100000, with
$4,000 of the amount to be spent
for books and $4,000 for furnishings.
A staff of 20 will be required to keep
the branch open to the public,
adults and children.
II believe in large branch libraries.
A larger staff and larger selection
of books will benefit a community
far more than small, inadequate
one."
May Be Delayed.
DR.. Bowerman said the opening
of the library may not take place
at the same time the school is opened
next fall.
Speaking of the new Central
Library, DR.. Bowerman said:
1--WE hope to start work on the
first unit of the Central Library by
November with all funds received
going to complete this as soon as it
is possible. had hoped all sections
of the city would have a branch
library, but no more can be built
until the Central branch is COM
pleted. this turning the present Gen.
