SHREVE MEMORIAL LIBRARY BOARD. The Shreve Memorial Library Board met in the office of the Librarian at 1:15 P.M. on January 27, 1947, with the following members present: Mr. J.C. Hamilton, Chairman, Mrs. T.B. Lanford, Mayor Clyde Fant, Mr. Louie Throgmorten, newly appointed to the Board, Mr. George A. Meadows and Mr. C.B. Moore. The Chairman suggested that since the buget for the new year was to be considered at this meeting that the minutes of the previous meeting be dispensed with. The other members were agreeable to this suggestion. The Chairman then welcomed the new member, Mr. Ghrogmorton. The Librarian suggested that it was again time to elect the Chairman of the Board. Mrs. Lanford moved that Mr. J.C. Hamilton be re-elected to that office, Mr. Moore gave the second and the Board signified its unanimous approval. The budget for the new year was presented by the Librarian and after some discussion pro and con, it was moved by Mr. Throgmorton, that the budget be held over for consideration at a later meeting. Mr. Moore seconded and it was so decided with the date being set for February 10th. Since most of the salary adjustments would be considered in the new budget these were omitted with the exception of the custodian at Vivian who was entitled to an increase because of increased working hours. Mr. Moore moved that Mrs. Files salary be increased from $25.00 per month to $42.50 per month. Mrs. Lanford seconded and the Board approved. There being no further business to come before the Board the meeting adjourned. ___ Chairman. Bess Vaughan, Secretary.
