On Monday evening of this week, Clyde King, Mr. Emery, Bill Casler, Joe Puhl, Darrell Frank and C.A. Sandvik put in the outside walls of the Library. As celotex or plywood is not available, it may be necessary to go ahead and use the room before it's entirely finished rather than wait for these materials.
Other construction work will be necessary in the Recreational Hall in order to make more accessible entrances for other businesses in the building. Some old timers in the Valley have had a very hard time finding the Beauty Parlor, the Selective Service and the paper boxes. There are a number of papers left in the boxes this week and we wonder if people have not been able to find the boxes.
We should have a directory out in the main Hall pointing out the way to the different things.
If home folks can't find their way around, how about the out-of-town folks?
