In summing up, 1 think that Mr. Nicholas Miljevic's words are aptly expressed. “Like my fellow trus- tees, I am proud of our library. And we are naturally endeavoring to maintain it as one of the best in the country. If more people would patronize the library, they would appreciate the valuable in- formation they may obtain here. It’: amazing how many people in Lacknwanna don't know enough about their library.” | South Park 6.6. Galzmti out—fieIder. Louis Fnstola.
