About two months ago. Rev. Hiram
Van Kirk of the Nor-chop Episcopal 3
Church promoted a special meeting. Miss Helen Tovoy has been visit-
and invited friends to meet and con- ing with Mrs. Richard Taylor in New
suit with the Board of Directors ior' York city tor a number of days.
the purpose oi resurrecting the li-
blury from a comatose state by dis-
cussing ways and moansto inject new
life and new methods. Mr. Van Kirk
was deeply in earnest. He proposed
canvassing the community to arouse
interest and cooperation; suggested a
series of entertainments to reimburse
the treasury; proposed organizing a
ladies‘ auxiliary committee which
would work faithfully for it. His an
gument was that a library with refer-i
cuco books for study and culture was
all necessary to a community as a
school, and that school childrcnnshould‘
be taught and encounged to use the‘ .
library. His interest and enthusiasmi “'1' William Hemiu' 0‘ Bridgeport
