... 7.451 'T BOOKS, BOOKS, BOOKS The library is an important part of the educational system of this land, for the movement that created the public school later created the library. It is the duty of the school to stimulate a desire for good reading, and to acquire knowledge. The li- brary in the school is the place where that desire can be satisfied. The Martinsville junior-Senior lligh School has a library located on the first Hoor of the high school building, and easily ac- cessible to students of both the junior and Senior groups. A large, well-lighted room equipped with tables and chairs to accum- modate fifty students, about four thousand well-chosen books on open shelves, some of the best magazines and newspapers. a clip- ping file, and a picture-pahphlet file, draw a large number of students daily. Pictures, busts of noted men, bright posters, and spe- cial exhibits make the room an attractive place for study or wise use of leisure time. The magazines and newspapers have been selected with a view to aiding each depart- ment of the school, as well as to provide recreational reading. Knowing how to em- ploy leisure moments is a fine art which few possess, so it is the aim of our high school library to teach that art. Funds to purchase new books and period- icals have been provided by the Parent- Teacher Association through the sale of school books, and by the high school faculty from the proceeds of plays staged by its members. During the past two years, the librarian has kept the library abreast with the times by means of a feature table. This usually starts with Children's Book VVeek when a display of books, magazines, pictures, and various articles of special interest to the younger pupils is set forth. Each depart- ment is also featured in this way. Christ- mas time comes with its wealth of stories, poems, pictures, and articles of wide vari-- etyg and during the present year the two hundredth anniversary of the birth of George Washington has furnished a very in- teresting collection of material. As spring approaches, birds, flowers, and gardens, of picture and story find a place on this reserve table. ....z..-.. , AGRICULTURE ACTIVITIES There are two organizations of students of agriculture, the boys' 4H club and thc Future Farmers' club. The 4H club has been organized since the department was es- tablished. The Future Farmers' club was organized two years ago. It is a chapter of the national organization of vocational stu- dents, the Future Farmers of America. Meetings of both organizations are held dur- ing the school year and throughout the sum- mer vacation. The officers of the 411 club are NN-'ayne Rawlins, president, Marvin Maxwell, vice- presidentg Herman Koons, secretary, and Ralph Kirk, treasurer. The officers of the Future Farmers' club are XVilbur Skaggs, presidentg Ralph Lewis, vice-president, Russell Musgrave, secre- taryg and Raymond Fendley, treasurer. The outstanding enterprise undertaken during the year by the two organizations was to assist Mr. Calvin, as director of re- lief garden work, in laying off 110 garden plots in fields available for the purpose, and in collecting, packaging and distributing garden seed to llo families. The 4l'l club made two contest entries at the Purdue Round-Up in l93l. Aaron Lank- ford, winner of the county 4ll health con- test, and Loren Hart, winner of the county 4H bird-identification contest, were entered in these contests at the Round-Up. Loren was winner of first place in the bird-identifi- cation contest. Herman Koons will repre- sent Morgan County in this contest this year. On account of the opening of school at the beginning of state fair week our boys did not attend the fair and enter exhibits as in former years when the fair was held before the opening of school. VVilbur Skaggs won first prize in the Vo- cational Class of Corn exhibits in the l93l Morgan County corn show. This page through the courtesy of Riley's Cafe, North Side of Square
