A Teachers College fulfills its functions in the degree to which it turns out a body of eliicient teachers who have something to teach and who know how to do it. The very heart and life of a teachers' college is its professional school and through the professional training efforts does it justify its existence. This places upon the Education Department a great emphasis and responsi- bility.

TI-IE CQLLEGE LIBRARY C. WELLS LUCILLE BRUMBAUGH B.A., M.A. Park College. B.S., Northwest Missouri State Teachers Col- lege: University of Illinois Library School. The College Library, in charge of Mr. Wells and the assistant librarian, Miss Brumbaugh, offers a place where students may study without interruption. There are twenty-five thousa.nd volumes in the library to supply the needs of the students and faculty members. The West Library contains the special reference books and the books reserved by the faculty to be used by their classes. This is the best section of the library from the standpoint of well selected books. It is also the best place to study. Open shelves lessen the work of those at the charging desk and make the library more convenient for students. Each year 35,000.00 is spent for new books, and 3600.00 for magazines. In addition to this expenditure many books are rebound and magazines are sent to be made into bound volumes. The New York Times and The United States Daily are filed and indexed. Ten college students make up the library force. This year the following students are on the force: Genevieve Bucher, Norman Clough, Bernard Keefe, Fern Alley, Ernest Reid, Olatha Suetterlin, John Wright, Virginia Meyers, Elizabeth Edwards and Walter Dowell. IN TI-IE LIBRARY My days among the dead are passed, Around me I behold, Wher-e'er these casual eyes I cast, The mighty minds of old. My ever constant friends are they With whom I converse, day by day. -Southey. l25l

In addition to methods in education, each student must do five hours of practice teaching in his major subject before receiving the Degree of Bachelor of Science. The College High School and the Training School give the student oppor- tunity to do practice teaching under trained and experienced supervisors. The Training School is made up of the elementary grades and College High. The rural department affords opportunity for those students who are going into the field of rural education to have supervised training in that type of school. The city schools are also available for practice teaching. E271 ' Q5 aa NSW ' gfog. fa,--'2aw.,. V if ' FT' -i : 1fftf':r'1isf1FJ ' A if ' Rf .L..ai32Z5!?faw.f: 1 Q i 3 1 e 5 i I Z I I I l 6 .
