Pres. Are there any corrections to the minutes?
Mr. A. I think the date of the last meeting should be changed to Jan. 10.
Pres. The gentleman is right and the secretary will make the correction. Are there any further corrections? [A pause.] There being none the minutes stand approved. Is the committee to which was referred the motion relating to a reading room for juniors in the public library prepared to report?[1]
Chairman of Committee. The committee has so far been unable to get a majority to agree on a report. Further discussion will be necessary.
Mr. A. I move "that the committee be discharged and that the question be now considered." [Seconded, stated, put, and adopted by a two-thirds vote.]
Pres. There being two-thirds in the affirmative, the motion is adopted and the committee is discharged. The question is on the motion "that a reading room for juniors should be a part of our public library." [After debate, question is put and motion is adopted.]
Mr. B. I move to suspend the rules and take up the resolution relating to furnishing luncheon to ill-nourished children. [Seconded.]
Pres. The resolution referred to was postponed to the next regular meeting. It is moved and seconded to suspend the rules and take up the question now. As many as are in favor of the motion, rise.
- ↑ If there are any committees to report, the chair should have a list of them and should call for the reports before entertaining any other business except reports of officers.
