Here the uiet atmos here makes concentration easier, and the willin' hell of Miss LI P iv l Lytle and Mrs. Cody in looking up reference material proved invaluable. Regular classes are held each year giving instruction in the use of the library and all referenee materials. Through the Readers' Guide and card eatalogues, information seekers were able to locate the exact material desired. The magazine room irovided ea l up-to-date pamphlets, newspapers and magazines to meet the needs of all. Checking out books, refiling. repairing damaged editions, and answering student inquiries kept the library staff on the jump from eight to four every day.

Hisforyi'l'he beautiful scenery of Brazil calls l GORDON SPECK. llisfory-Interested in all coun- tries. as hc fccls that all men are hrothcrs under the skin. Past, Present, and Future In this global age, students must have an understanding of the historic background of all nations as well as a thorough knowledge of modern trends. For Northwest students this requires not only a familiarity with European history, but a more intimate knowledge of our neighbors to the South and those of the entire Pacific Rim. With this insight future citizens are better equipped to meet political, economic, and social problems with intelligence. 'l'o keep upeto-date on the daily progress of the 'iNlilI'L'll to Berlin.
