Pear sir.—Though I happened to be almost a stranger here, and can never hope to become a permanent resident, yet I would like to do all 1 can for the town, little though it may be. And so l have been ask ing myself, over and over again, till at last I decided to crave your in dulgence, and through your columns , ask the public iwy question; which t is: “Has Loup City enough public spirit to start a reading room.” A room where the young people might come and read current events, where innocent games might In* played at intervals, where debates might he held on matters of local, and of more than local interest. Where a House of Representatives might bold their sessions, patterning after that at 'Washington. We could eastly have athletics, In structions could be given by differ ent ones to our young people, on what to read as a beginning in cer tain courses of study. Lectures to young men only, and to young women only; these with ruauy other things we could arrange for. As to control, well of course 1 would like to see the Churches plural please manage this, if Hint were possible. Ah to ways uml means; why, cer tainly it will cost money, ami we! will have to find it. Ami it will l»e: haul work to get the mom y ii' we I area set of imau-spi'ited or ignor ant people. Jflit if we are not eat en up witii selfishness the needed funds ean be easily secured. I have much more that I might say, hut I wait to see if the public have any general interest in the future of the boys and girls. Thanking you in anticipation for your kindness in publishing this as well as for your untiring kindness in the past 1 remain Very greatfully Yours, Walter K. Matthews.
