It may not be generally known that an effort is being made to establish a public circulating library in this village. Several ladies among our summer residents have talked over the matter with some of the members of the Village Improvement society, and have also contributed books, which Mrs. John D. Hedges has kindly consented to care for and circulate during the winter.
