Library Opens Amid Civic Support and Socials
The city library formally opened at city hall with XIX Century club members hosting. Ice cream and cake served to about eighty patrons, lifting total readers to roughly 350 as a Wilton rug, curtains, Flemish shelving, and fine furniture enhanced the inviting room. A Mrs. Stoner gift picture was raffled. Mrs. H. M. Creel drew the winning number. A Peon social raised 107.45 toward an organ for the school, while Rev. Father Henn leaves for Richardton to continue parish work with local well wishes.
