EXPRESS THANKS TO PUBLIC.

     The Merchants Gift Library has been removed to the Public Library room, over First National bank, where it has been arranged in new cases and shows up nicely. The association is doubly grateful for this evinence of friendliness from the public as it not only places valuable books in the library but assures them that their labor is appreciated and that the public wants a library. Everyone is invited to call and examine the books and to become members of the organization.
     In behalf of the Public Library association we desire to thank the people of Marlin and vicinity for their support and aid by which this association won the Merchant's Gift Library.  Especially would we thank the merchants for their generous gift.  We hope to make this award benefit every man, woman and child in Marlin, and we hope that every citizen who desires a better Marlin, a cleaner town, a higher education, will help to build up a library that we can all be proud of.

J. A. DUNKUM, Pres.
MRS. B. C. NETTLES, Sec.
