But the Brigham City Ladies Community club has liter, ally checked in with more than $5,000 worth of improvements over the past several years. The latest is carpeting and draperies in the childrens section where the old hardwood floors are now pleasantly quiet and far more attractive. As one youngster squealed with delight upon entering the library Thurs-day- , Look, Jeff, new carpeting! It required 150 square yards of the lime green nylon shag floor covering to do the job. Drapes are expected to be installed within the week. Mrs. Leland W. Ward, club president, said With new shag carpeting in the junior secIMPROVEMENT tion of the Brigham City library, its comfortable enough to sit on the floor, as evidenced in this photo. LIBRARY BEHS Scholars these latest improvements plus books donated to the junior section and a large world globe provided for the main floor represent an expenditure of $2,300. Saturday in Brigham City The city library board chipped in with $500 for the carpeting. The ladies club has raised theneces. sary funds at its annual spring fashion show and from the sale of community birthday calendars. Their focus on the library began in 1966 and it has included also carpeting and draperies on the main floor, this expense alone exceeding $3,000, said Mrs. Ward. Mrs. Edith Johnson of Brigham City has handled the interior design for the extended project which likely will see new. furniture, including chairs and tables, as the next phase. The Ladies Community club which has held Saturday story hours at the library, also is continuing with its donation of books. Chairman of the project is Mrs. Dean L. Bunderson with Mrs. Ward, Mrs. David Nyman, Mrs. Michael Carver and Mrs. J. Oakley Moore as commit-te- e members. It appears at this point that Brigham City will realize about $30,000 more from its utility sales than anticipated in the current budget. This was disclosed Thursday night by Mayor Olof Zundel as the city coun-ci- l took a quarterly look at the budget. What they saw was encouraging. Brigham City has been walking a financial tightrope because of the large expenditure for the $230,000 community center. Based on Thursdays report, however, the city has plenty of fiscal room to avoid borrowing. In addition to the projected $20,000 increase in water sales and $10,000 from electrical power, another $69,-00- 0 is available in the budget. This amount includes $14,000 federal grant for parks, $10,000 owed the gen-erfund from bond redemption, $10,-00- 0 previously spent for engineering services to be reimbursed by Special Improvement District No. 16, and $35,-00that must be rebudgeted next year to meet city expenses in the district currently covered by interim warrants.
