Library Training Class The course in Library Training is open to a limited number of eighth- and ninth-grade students who have been recommended for the work by one of their teachers. Students must show special ability for the work, must score high in character and courtesy, and must possess dignity and persever- ance in order to receive this recommendation. No student who has failed in any subject the preceding term will be allowed to enter the class and a high standard of scholarship is an asset to the applicant.

They delight in the responsibility that becomes theirs as they grow and develop in the work. Following is a list of the members: A-Nines-Louise Alexander, Pauline Smith, Lillian Nimroff, Lilliar.
