This year two hundred new books were purchased, includ- ing the World Book Encyclopedia, making a valuable addition to our excellent library. To encourage the students to use the library, a Variety of attractive and colourful displays were set up by the library committee. Of special interest was the one for United Nations Week. Dolls dressed in national costumes depicted twenty different countries. Gay senoritas from Spain, geishas from Japan, a kilted Scotsman and many others, made an impressive sight. Flags and posters helped to give an added insight to each country. Other interesting displays featured the Ballet, art and Shakespeare. With up to twenty books in circulation daily, there is always plenty of work for the library committee. A student is on duty each day, and she checks the books and returns them to the shelves. During Young Canada Book Week, a book review contest took place. The standard was high, honours going to lane Thomas, Ballater, the senior winnerg and Lorraine Murray, Braemar, the junior winner. The popular library quiz was very successful and attracted many contestants. The senior winner was Elaine Wadham, Braemarg and tied for first place in the junior competition were Barbara Campbell and Jackie Daunt. Glen Gairn achieved the highest number of points. The students of Balmoral Hall are proud of their library, and are grateful to all who, by their generous donation of books, have helped to maintain the high standard, We are specially indebted to the Group of Interested Persons for their continual support and many generous contributions. We wish to express our sincere appreciation to Mrs. G. H. Sellers for an autographed copy of To Everything There is a Season , to Senator D. D. Everett, for House of Commons Hansard, and to Mr. LA. MacAulay for a typewriter. Susan Majury, Head of the Library.

I? E 'YY !706m'4 Home The Boarders of Aiken's House invited Miss Murrell-Wright out for a steak dinner at Hi's on her last Friday evening. Our original plan had included the Pizza Place, but due to a rumour that our guest was not fond of pizza, the destination was changed. We learned at the dinner she had never eaten it, but by the time of this publication she will no doubt be including it among her favourite European dishes. The dinner was excellent and we returned to Christmas decorating followed by soft drinks provided by Miss Murrell- Wright. We feel safe in saying it was one of our year's highlights. laden Home Bottom Floor: Margaret Allison, Edmonton, Alberta Charlotte Alms, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Georgina Alms, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Iris Ann Atkins, Carman, Manitoba Zenith Atkins, Carman, Manitoba Shirley Claydon, Port Arthur, Ontario Jackie Daunt, Yorkton, Saskatchewan Deirdre Eroud, Caracas, Venezuela Denise Froud, Caracas, Venezuela Heather Jones, Winnipeg, KManitoba Shannon Kastner, Winnipeg, Manitoba Dorothy Lechow, Port Arthur, Ontario Cynthia Lone, Port Arthur, Ont. 1965 Christmas- 67 Nancy McGregor, Ada, Minnesota Betty Parsons, Red Deer, Alberta Donna Russell, Edmonton, Alberta Debbie Sanderson, Carman, Manitoba Brenda Simpson, Calgary, Alberta Emily Smith, Winnipeg, Manitoba Melanie Tack, The Pas, Manitoba Rowena Tack, The Pas, Manitoba Laurel Willis, lnvermay, Saskatchewan ff: Q0 I E lf T 5 2 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1967 1966 - 67 1965 - 67 1965 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1965 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 1965 - 67 1966 - 67 1966 - 67 ,,. lima-Mani
