Katie Gray, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William October 9th isn’t exactly an important date to most people, but to those who support the Back Mountain Memorial Library it has a certain significance. At 2 p.m. on Oct. 9, 1945, the library opened its doors p public for the first time. Of course, it wasn’t the library as we know it now-the children’s annex was still a private home, and only the first floor of the library’s main building was used to house books: still, the purpose of the library remains the same, even though its appearance may have changed somewhat. Many programs and projects begun right after the library was opened are still with us today. For example, the “Friends of the Library’’ began in 1945. Anyone can become a ‘Friend’ by giving a ‘donation to the Library, and of course such donations help to keep the Library’s doors open, as queen Gray, 25 Westminster Drive, Dallas, is co-captain of the varsity cheer- leaders.

The approval for the extension was granted following Township Engineer Ray Radamski’s report that he had inspected the work and felt Fielding was actively engaged in completing the repairs as specified by the supervisors. He recommended that the supervisors extend the Sept. 30 deadline so the developer would have no problems when the work is completed. The time was extended to as long as the weather permits for blacktopping which is usually Oct. 15 or Oct. 30. A resident on Newhart Road stated that part of the road is on his property. He asked what the supervisors planned to do about it. He explained that after he had his property surveyed several days later the stakes were removed and township graders came over on part of his frontage. He is going to have it surveyed again during the next week. Radamski stated the road appears to be in the right place. Township solicitor Blythe Evans recommended that after the property is surveyed the resident and his surveyor should meet with Ray Radamski to discuss any problems. If a problem does exist, supervisors will act on the advice of the solicitor. The supervisors voted to send the new part-time patrolman to the Northeast Training School at Wyoming which begins in January and continues for three months. During that time they will reimburse him for his salary lost on his regular job as well as $175 for serving as part- time policeman at night. He will also be reimbursed for any special equipment needed for the training. Felix Niedjaco asked what would be done about snow removal on state they have done for the past thirty years. The present-day library Book Club had its origins in the two book clubs in existence in the Back Mountain area before the library was founded. These two clubs were combined soon after the library opened and all Book Club members undertook to purchase a book a year for the library. Now, with monthly meetings October through May and a very active Book Selection Committee, the Book Club provides interesting programs and a varied, continually changing selection of books for its members. The ‘Children’s Story Hour’ was a weekly event at the Library back in the 1940s and is still going strong today, meeting every Wednesday morning during the school year. And, last but not least is the Library’s ‘Shut-In’ program, which has been HALF-POUND O!GROUND ROUND DINNER Full Half-Pound of Grilled Finest Quality Steer Beef!
