It was reported the recent electric wiring cost $300.00. Extra work will cost $100.00. The tiling in the ceiling of the D.A.R. room cost $187.00. The D.A.R. museum room still needs more work. There is no more money in the budget for any more big jobs. There was $1,000.00 for jobs. The ceiling also cost $267.11. It was suggested that Mrs. Hight list other big jobs needing to be done in order to get them into the June budget. Prices on new front steps to the library were to be obtained.
The library is still very much in need of more voluntary help.
The board must decide on putting shelves in the D.A.R. room. A request was made to the D.A.R but was rejected. Extra space for books is badly needed. This was tabled to be discussed at the next meeting.
The meeting adjourned, the next meeting to be June 21. Respectfully submitted, Lillie Gatesman, record secty.
