Five hundred and thrity-three books have been added to the local
library which contains 19,880 volumes. During the past twelve
months there were 49,790 persons reading boks from the library, Miss
Bowlby's report showed.
The
amount of fines collected totalled $263.55 for the one-year period
and $387.65 were realized from the rental fiction.
