Pinebluft is only & small place, with a population of | fewer than one hundred in summer, | and when-the ladies of the village de- cided that they ought to have a publie library they found themselves with- out a building suitable for the pur- pose. Finally, a gentleman offered them a band-stand which he had bullt in the hope that Pinebluff would soon become a city, and the offer was ac- cepted with thanks. By giving enter- tainments and so on, the ladies were able to raise funds to purchase materi- 2ls to fill in the openingssof the band- stand, and generally fit it up into a snug little building. Over 500 books have been given and the ttny library, of which Pinebluff is very proud; is now in full working order—From the June Wide World. Looking for a Grievance.
