From _weck to week the number of read- 'ers has increased, until the total approaches the hundred mark in one evening at times. Sustained and conducted by the voluntary and devoted labours of Mrs W igle ;and Mrs' Hutchison through its | initial stages, it is now in charge of Miss M. Morris as Librarian, and is established as a permanent institution in the community. The Municipality of Van Horne has given its support recently, and the clientele of the Library has been greatly extended in consequence. The great néed now is for more books. A fresh shipment of new books from the department of the Inspector of Libraries at Toronto will soon be here, and a number of new books will also be purchased Tn addition the Library Board is appealing to all citizens who have books to spare, to contribute them to the Library where their useful- ness will be immeasureably en- hanced. Almost everybody has books that have no longer interest for their owners: what better end could they fulfil than by being devoted to an honourable public service? One book or several--ihe con- tribution will be en apprecia- ted by the Board and by readers. pon [So -------- Dryden an d Distriet Agricultural Society.

The speech states the Government that an amicable arr made with the sister Province of Que- provincial river, the Government will continue to press for St. Lawrence development. No New Taxes-- No new taxes are forecast, but note- worthy progress, the speech says, has been made in the Smprevenaly of the Provincial finances and that "we are now within measurable distance of re-; storing the balance between the ordin- ary revenue and expenditure."

Northern Onlario--- The speech also pays considerable attention to developments of various kinds in Northern Gntario, paricularly the epnoRTEREAa of mining, which has made tremendous strides during the past year. There is no reference to roads in the speech, except to link their importance with the encourage- ment of tourist traffic.
