We much appreciate their interest in thus adding to the number of available awards, apart from those given directly for school work. We sincerely thank those kind people who have presented us with books for the library. Among them is an array of vol- umes of Cassell ' s National Library, 68 in all, from Colonel and Mrs. Willis O ' Connor; and a History of English Literature, from Diana Clark. Other books of biography and wide general in- terest have been added at intervals. The total number of books now in the library is over 1,000, and it is most encouraging to note how much more frequently they have been in use for refer- ence during the past year. Theodosia Bond and Hazel Ross have proved most efficient and vigilant librarians, and we thank them for their good work. We should also like to thank Mrs. Frank Ross of Quebec for having given us a most generous donation of $100.00 towards providing the movie projector of which we are now the proud possessors.
