VOL. XIV PUBLIC LIBRARY ASKS FOR CONTRIBUTIONS Hooks Subscriptions To fairy <>n Work; Institution Mako Splendid Growth Having reached the bottom of the fund raised for its support a year ago, the Lynden Public Library has again Issued an appeal for assistance to the friends of the institution. It bases its appeal on the fine record of service it has been able to make dur- | ing the past twelve months as a re sult of the aid given it. Fully twice the number of readers are now patronizing the instiution than ever before. Hundreds of new books have been added in the year, and it has been possible to keep the building open every day. The library board has co-operated with the Lyn den schools, and has endeavored to secure books that would assist the students in their work. Receipts from membership fees of one dollar per family, and fines, are so small that the running expenses : are barely covered by them, leaving US fund for books or improvements. It is to meet this need that the li brary is asking for support. Sub- . scriptions may be Bent to Mrs. B. V. j Mounter, treasurer. j The following new books have been purchased in the last few weeks for , the library: L "Hetnpfleld," Grayson; "Under the , Country Sky," Richmond; "Missy," , liatliu; "The Rescue," Conrad; "Cap- , tain Macedoine's Daughter," McFee; "The Friendly Road," Grayson; "Sister Sue," Eleanor Porter; "Just Patty," Webster; "How Could You Jean?"

LYNDEN, WASH., THURSDAY, JUL. 14, 1921 TIME SHORT TO GET DRIVERS' LICENSES Arrest* Will Follow After .{ujrUNt 1; 1 I Application lthmks at Garages ami Tribune Office Lynden automobile owners have ijust two weeks of grace in which to 1 apply tor their state drivers' license.;! j The fee is one dollar for each mem- ' Iber of the family who desires to I i drive the car. Application blanks i may b" obtained at Lynden garages. / or at the Tribune office. Motorists generally are not com- I ! plaining about this fee, as it will be I ;used to pay for the new state traffic'i force, which will police the highways ; and watch for traffic violations. By i barring careless drivers from the use: of the roads, automobiling will be's made far safer, it is believed, and t the motorists* protected. jl' County Traffic Officer William !f Brock was in Lynden this week and advised the Tribune that he intended S to stop cars on the road after August (1 1, and make arrests of those who do,K not have the drivers' licensee. A I rigid enforcement of this law, and 1< other traffic provisions will be made.

Everyone spoke in high praise of the addrepp by Dr. Watson, of Seattle, in the morning on "The Fact of the Atone ment" and equally .so in an ißtMMtfo practical address at the evening ser vice on "Working With God." Key. Feldth of Bellingham also gave a fine evangelistic address in the af 'tcmoon, which was highly commend ed upon. All were delighted and many quite profuse in their admiration of the arrangement of the church which not only gives adequate facilities for .church work but which is in itself most attractive in appearance and lends easily to decorative purposes, the advantage of which was fully tak en by the members and friends who gave so liberally of most beautiful roses and lilies. That these services might be as helpful as possible to all, no plea was ■ made for money other than a brief statement at the morning service by Key. Charles Baker, who suggested that a voluntary free-will offering by any or all would be fully apprec iated. The offering for the day amounted to about $100.00. The church Is free from local indebted ness now, but has no funds for the heating plant, which will cost about $300.00. The building committee has been continued, and further effort will be made to raise this sum before the winter months'. "The church again thanks their many friends who so contributed by their presence and practical support as to make last Sunday a banner day in their history," said Uev. Baker today. "Now it is possible the mem bers of the church will feel it a FINE PUREBRED BERKSHIRES RAISED ON LYNDEN FARM This is his highness.

LYNDEN TO MEET FAST CUSTER TEAM Will May Strongest Rivals At Home Ground* Sunday; Local Team On tarn ■I l | Next Sunday, July 17, at the Fair ", Grounds, Lynden will meet their old enemy, Custer, in a game which pro mises to be an exciting one from start to finish. Game will be called at ! 2:00 p. m. sharp. Lynden strengthened her position as leader in the Nooksack Valley league, at Denting, Sunday, by de feating the hard-hitting team of that town two games in a double-header. The score for the first game was 10 to 2 and the second 8 to 1. The Lynden boys seemed to have their batting eye with them and gathered a total of eleven hits in the 1 , I first game off of Johnnie McDonald, [i Deming's star pitcher, while Olson ' let his opponents down with six well | scattered hits. One of these was a t clean home run hit over center field i by B. Johnson in the fourth inning. Olson also helped very materially to I win his own game by getting a triple, l a double and a single in five times at | :bat. Bentley was the other star bat- t iter getting two two-baggers in two t times up. He sprained his ankle' sliding into second and was relieved f by Reld for the rest of the game. \ LYNDEN—First Game 1 AB R H PO A E W.

Mc- Leod; Possesses Great Itoauly l . A new rose. ' The Phoebe Judson." [ made its first appearance before lov ers of real beauty in Lynden this iweek, and won ail hearts by its wou , derful fragrance and beauty. The bloom was originated by Dr. MC. H. McLeod of Lynden, and was named in honor of Mrs. Phoebe Jud son's, Lynden's pioneer mother. It may be seen at the beautiful McLeod rose gardens on Front Street. The "Phoebe Judson" is a glorious red, with velvet petals curved per fectly. It stands out as the brightest spot of color in the McLeod garden. One of its merits is that it is able to maintain its crimson In the face of the sun, and does not fade to a weal; blue. The new Lynden rose is a cross be tween the "George Dickson," consid ered the world's best exhibition rose, and the "General Mat-Arthur." voted v favorite by rosarians everywhere. At the London Hose Show last year, "Mac Arthur" was voted the best out door rose, and the best bedding rose of any color that the world has seen. "Phoebe Judson" has all the delight ful fragrance of the "Dickson." and adds to it the more vivid coloring of the "Mac Arthur." The rose is very full, owning at least a hundred petals, and has a firm stem, maintaining an erect pos ition. The foliage is as beautiful as the "Mac Arthur," which is noted for this feature. Dr. McLeod hopes to develop the good features of the bloom more ful ly, and then to exhibit it before tin critics of the world at Paris. LYNDEN professional MEN TO M.IKE SHIFT OF OFFICES ) I j Dr. B.
