The ship's library located in the hold presents one ot the chiet attractions tor the use ot leisure time on board. Our present library is quite an improvement over that ot tormer years. The open stack system now beinq used allows the passen ers' to have the opportunity ot browsing through all the library books, which are arranged on the silielves according to the Dewey Decimal system. At present there are in our library one thousand tive hundred thirty-tour books and pamphlets, ol which one hundred were added this year. Among these recent acquisitions are a New World Book encyclopedia, a set ot science books, several books ot fiction, and a few new books in each ot the other tields. Copies ot thirty-tive various magazines may be found on the magazine rack or in the classrooms. All the old magazines are tiled away in the stack room, adioining the library, tor tu- ture references. During the year about torty books were borrowed from the state library on a neighboring ship tor three months. An intensive book repair program is being carried on at present. ln the spring, Mr. Wensley, a representative ot the Gaylord Brothers library supply company, qave a very interesting demonstra- tion on the repair ot books. At this time we want to thank two of our passengers, Misses Lillie Mae Jackson and lrma Mae Ryan, for their assistance in cataloging and repairing ot books. The purpose ot our library is to give the passen ers an opportunity tor gaining knowledqe supple- mentarv to that found in their textbooks. lt aclso provides a place ot enioyment tor reading maga' zines and fiction. The library has been a very popular place tor all the passengers on board, and we sincerely hope it will continue to remain so. This page sponsored bv GENE CLEAR Phone 89

We are the largest number of stowaways to ever board the good ship Hilltop. We held a deck party with the tourists in October. The main event of the evening was dancing on deck. We are planning a docking party iust before our ship lands in the spring. completing our voyage as stowaways. Then we will be ready to enter as tourists on the ship's nent voyage. We have little business as we are only stowaways and have had few meetings in the hold. but the boys of our class are making quite a contribution to the basketball squad. OFFICERS nldent - - - W.
