Smith Dlscussesl Proposed New Library WHISTLES GREET SUFFRAGE | Church Notices—Warranty Deeds Re. corded—Car Tracks Under Rallroad Hridge Repaired—Funeral of Miss Clara Frank—Other Brief Items, In view of the tentative plans for A new Ubrary bullding in Berlin and the interest that is being taken In the matter of site and useé of such bullding by the people of the ~ill M2p. John B. Smith today made the following statement “A few months ago Miss Wilcox And myself having become joint own- ety of the lot on the cerner of Worthington Ridge and Norton Road offered to give sald lot to the Library amoclation. For many yveurs that par- tieglar lot has been ialked of as the plice for quiet organizations, leaving ly It seems a very suitable location “However, after the offer had been verbally made, and a meeting called to consider its agceptance. the idea | pecurred to us and was suggested at the mieeting, that it might be better | to have the library bullding on the | lang given last year for community purboses, thus making one 1ot instead of two to be cared for and adding the proceeds of the cormer lot to fthe | bullding fund. This sugzestion was somewhat discussed but no vote was taken, and a second meeting was called to consider the matter. To that meeting 1 sent the following paper ans an explanation of the donors’ ace tion in the matter “As half owner of the lot on Worth- Ington Ftidge and Norton Road, 1 tlAdly Joined with Miss Wilcox in the sifer of the lot for a new library. At the time of our offer there seemed )it tle prospect of any being made of the land which was given last year for Community purposes. Now that there is a fair prospect of something warth \while being done with that. and the old barn is beinz fitted up to serve the immediate need of a community bullding, nry ewn person. #l Judgment is that It would be bet- ter to go ahead with that—letting the library walt, much as it is needed, —until conditions make building more pssible. Then to raise sufecient mengy. to put up a good building with sommittee rooms, etc., which would serve as library and as a gathering plate for quiet organizations, leaving the remodelled barn for dances, bas- ketball, and such other activities as are not consistent with a library. and to pave this bullding on the commun- iy’ 1and. In that case the owners of the corner lot would zladly well and donate the proceeds for the li- brar$ fund.” No vote was taken at that meet- use | churen, jog. partly because it was sald that o actlon could be taken without a 1 affer. Therefore, we sent the 10 Lhe secretary of the as- raigned, being Joint owners of the lot on Worthington Ridge and Norton Road, offer to give sald lot to the Berlin Library asso- ciation, either as the lot upon which a new Ubrary building shall be built, or If the association spkall prefer, we Agree to sell the lot and give the proceeds to the library fund. “The one restriction which we make being that no action shall be taken upon the matter, by the association until October 1st, during which time we promise to hold the land which shall then be subject to the vote of the association.’ “Our reasens for deferring action were first, that we might all see matters mort clearly and calmly, and also that we might have time in which to awaken fresh interest in the MN- brary to help the people of the vil- luge to realize what a power it ha béen for good in the past and how much more it might mean in the fu- ture with a fine new buflding and suit- ablg equipment. is statement clears up much of the uncertainty which existed In the Ibrary.community house matter.
