Study club 113.03 TOTAL $1171.53 Efforts spent by the club and others who have cooperated show what can be accomplished toward a worthy undertaking. They rea lize that the present total is far from being sufficient to construct a building and they know it will take longer to earn enough. As long as the determination is there, the goal will eventually be achieved. From the Office By Marvin Kamholz Along with last week's publi cation of the amount realized from the most recent rummage sale sponsored by the Vernonia Study club library committee was a tabulation of the various sources of the total amount of the club's building fund. This building fund was started by the club in 1949 because of a belief that the city library should some time be housed in more adequate quarters where satisfac tory provision could be made for shelving of books and for use of the library by its patrons. This belief was and still is bas.d on the fact that present quarters will not allow sufficient room for expansion and arrange ment as suited to a library. The place has been reached now where there is no space for mor? shelving without a major change in the city hall building, yet new volumes are being added and use by patrons is increasing. As the fund now stands, through club efforts and the work of other groups, the total is $1171.53. A tabulation of the sources lists the following: Feb. 17, 1949—Carnival, all organizations $209.30 May 10, 1949—Study club tea 46.80 Aug. 19, 1949—Rebekah cooked food sale 32.00 Sept. 16, 1949—Rummage sale, Pythian Sisters 150.11 March 16, 1950—Rummage sale.

Fences aren’t too good along the railroad tracks, but calves failed to see the easy places over which to jump and they couldn’t walk the trestle. Herb Counts and H. A.
