Institute replies to reader questions on town project
In a correspondence reply the Institute Committee explains that since 1926 ratepayers turned over property to subscribers and the Institute is elected by them. The public may ask at annual meetings, and three points are clarified: trust funds for the Bowling and Croquet Clubs will be handed over when a club house is ready. neither property is mortgaged and bank overdrafts are personally guaranteed by Trustees. and the Memorial Hall is to serve public utility, not exclusively subscribers.
