"Acting upon the recommendation' of the finance committee your directors asked the county to make for the en suing year the same levy for library purposes as was received last year. namely. .45 of a mill. As tho county valuation Is $12,138,479 less than .in 1914, our income will bo lessened by 85500, and in consequence our balance at the end of this fiscal year will be considerably reduced."
