PEOPLE ARE KNOWN by the company they keep, A well-equipped library means well-informed, in1efl'liger1t people. LIBRARY GFFERS Gooo BOOKS, QUIET NooK TO STUDENTS ' WANTED: MORE BOOKS-reference books, biog- raphies, plays and good 'ole' fiction. The library here at Chamberlain is on the track of some new books. These books, about two thousand in number, shouldn't hide out much longer because of the spe- cial appropriations which the county makes. As in the past years, they will surely be captured soon and will provide the school with twice the number .of books that were available in the fall of 1956. A new section of the library has been growing this year: a section of pictures-illustrations and copies of famous paintings and other subjects useful to study. These are kept in the map cabinet and are covered with clear plastic for lasting protection. A picture is worth a thousand words and is more inter- esting, too. Chamberlain is certainly proud of her fast-growing storehouse of knowledge.

In giving the students a chance to make a four-year survey of the held of art, the department hopes to turn out well-developed material for the cultured of the coming age and give all a deeper appreciation of beautiful things. Students design posters and decorate for many school functions. They are taught all the fundamentals, phases, and media of commercial art, crafts, design and the fine arts. In short they learn the art of the arts. TACKY CLASH HOP, sponsored by the Art Club, sparked enthusiasm during the basketball season. Other projects directed by this group include creating expressive posters advertising school activities and social functions and decorating the hall showcases depicting the holiday spirit. Students who display potential Uartisticl' ability are eligible for club membership and accom- panied by the sponsor, Mrs. Myldred Bates, enjoy field trips to museums and o ura1 high spots. - 'Y .i ART CLUB-Front row: JoAnn Johnson, Carol Sue Conklin, Nancy Payne, Maureen Phelps, Sara Norton, Ronnie Schott, Lloyd Moore, Mora Pero, Diana Potter, Nancy Griffin, Sandy Fairclofh, Terry Mellor, Pat Thomas, Joyce Glassen, Geraldine Williams, Barbara Starling, Second row: Mrs. Bates, Fred Jenkins, Carol Drier, Anne Motes, Leona Kline, Harry Folsom, Arno-ld Stange, Bill Moorhead, Richard Beckner, Al Mathes, Mike Deal, Joyce Leigh Hewitt, Charleen Bennett, Carolyn Hunter, Nancy Vaughn, Janice Williams, Carol Anderson. 89
