The work is going well in the basement and the carpenter, has ~learSd one rcom for a movie today, l~e hope to have the Senior Citizens meeting here ~n the fourteenth ~ulso. It is much more convenient not to have to haul everything. The contract with ~moka County was signe~ on December 23rd. There is some question able,ut ~ur ability to fulfill this contract as far as the per capita spending is concerned. %!e appreciated the good ~shers and the treats that some of our patrons left us at Christmas. It was a s~as,vn to be jelly. The new book drop has been installed in the workroom and seems to be working really well, It was a headache for the cabinet makers because of plumbing ~und other obstructions but we feel it %~ill be worth the effort because less weekend smd holiday time ~ll be necessary. It's good to have the Christmas lull over. Some housekeeping chores were t~ken care of and a lot of books were processed. However more patrons are a welcome sight,
