Our club is now fitting up permanent quarters and proposes to make its library as complete and valuable as possible. Generous gifts are being received from leading publishers, and it is hoped that you will recognize the needs of this small but energetic band of toilers on the tripod by some memento of yourself which, reposing on a library shelf, will stand as an enduring monument of your generosity. I assure you that the club will duly acknowledge any favors from you.
