The New Library.

The Jasper Public Library will be opened to the public on Friday evening, May 19, by a public reception to which all are cordially invited. The work of preparing the Library has been one of voluntary effort and it will take considerable labor to place the books and prepare for the loan thereof. The Directors Request each stock subscriber who has not done so to pay so that there will be no delinquencies. They also request ea<*h stockholder to help with the work if called upon. The books can be procured in four ways: 1. By owning a share of the stock. • 2. By purchasing a life ticket for $2.50. 3. By procuring a guarantee signed by an adult stockholder. 4. By depositing the retail price of the book with the Librarian. The Directors ask as many to help the Library by adopting the first or second method as possible. S. P. Thompson, President William H. Cooveb, Secretary.
