Committee
Wants $500
At the public library meeting last
Tuesday evening a number of en
thusiastic addresse s were delivered
and the ball started rolling on a
campaign to raise $500.00 as a nu
cleus for a Library fund. $110.00
was subscribed at the meeting and
since that time a number of sub
scriptions have been made, so that
the fund is now near the $200.00
mark. A committee composed of
Mesdames, J. L. Kronenberg and
L. J. Cody and Miss Pearl Walker
are looking after the financial end of
the proposition and you should see
one of them and turn in your sub
scription, The R ecorder will pub
lish the names of those who have
subscribed in Tuesday’s issue, and
you should have your name on this
list. Bandon certainly needs a pub
lie library and there is every ap
pearance now that we will have a
good one in the near future.

Limits Came in by Petition
of Owners,
Readers of the R ecorder will re
member that this paper announced
in its issue of January 28th that a
petition had been signed by nearly
all the property owners in the terri-
t< ry east of Bandon, including all
land north of Eighth street to a line
about one half mile east of the old
city limits and north about one and
one-half miles, for such territory to
come into the city limits.
The petition was presented to the
city council at its session Wednes
day evening by A. G. Thrift, and
unanimously accepted. The city
attorney was ordered to prepare the
necessary ordinance for annexing
this territory to the city, which will
be done at once and the new terri
tory will become a part of the city
of Bandon in due form.
