Librar lub Gives Invaluable Service Rendering invaluable assist- ance to Sister Myra and Miss Gormley, Library Club members charge out books, make out over- due slips and keep the library and its shelves in good order. These girls cheerfully aid stu- dents to locate material from any sources. The excellent selection of books, pamphlets and magazines in the IHS library provide in- formation for term papers or homework assignments. In this atmosphere of study one can spend much of one's time read- ing for enrichment or pleasure. Sally Poore's job of shelving books is greatly facilitated when Mary Ellen Clarke and Harriette Veirs arrange them in order. Practicing her speech for the first time before attentive listeners, jill Morgan and Pat Wold, Gwen Cavanagh employs all the force that she would in a contest.

In original oratory, speakers develop the ability to organize and express their thoughts clearly on a variety of topics. In declamation IHS girls place new meaning or new emphasis on the thoughts of others. These same qualities of con- fidence and clarity in thought and expression that one learns in speaking will benefit girls throughout life.
