HALF ITS TREASURY GIVEN TO LIBRARY BY CITIZENS CLUB, After long and serious discussion during which everyone took the floor to air opinions, a 24-member nounced the donation of half their treasury funds to the building of the Juneau Memorial Library. | The remaining amount to be rais- ed—less than $9,000 of a total of $70,000—hasn’t been reduced greatly by the contribution, but the mor- ale given the library board has been boosted a thousand percent. The sum was $2. This figure represents half the funds of the Young Americans Cit- izenship Club, made up of 5th grade members of the Willoughby Avenue School, taught by Rosalind A. Hermes, The youngsters had $4.10 in their treasury, the money raised by as- sessing each child 5 cents a month, Normally the money is used for Christmas boxes, Mothers Day gifts, and for materials used which are not furnished by the school. Must Econcmize The sum donated represents money raised for almost two long months, and great economies must be put in force now so the class’ programs may go ahead unhindered. But they felt the library came first. After many took to floor to say: “All the other clubs in Ju- neau are donating, we use the lib- ary more than many of the grown folks,” and “if we are citizens of Juneau it is our duty to help,” the students voted the $2 from thed previous capital. At first it was suggested that a dollar be given. This brought many to their feet to object that such a small amount was not enough. So it was doubled, show- ing that generosity and the stu- dents’ knowledge of the hard-press- ed drive was uppermost in their minds. Letter Sent With the donation, a letter was sent Dr. James C. Ryan, commis- sioner of education and acting board chairman now directing the drive. The letter follows: “At our regular meeting of the Young Americans Citizenship Club on Thursday we voted to donate $2.00 from our treasury- for the Memorial Library. “We are very glad we can help T ——————— PAINTING AND DECORATING Priced to Meet Your Budget Ralph Treffers PHONE 996 Room 3, Valentine Bldg.
