The shrill shriek of a siren, the clanging of a mad scramble through the halls, a tu- of commotion--a three-alarm fire? No, more commonplace than the hullaballoo results from noon dismissal and the rush for place far up in the cafeteria chow line. Any early arrival who is quite a distance in the line naturally obtains many friends is obliged to give them a place in front of These friends recognize other friends and nw., the heretofore fortunate one finds himself oving in the opposite direction from which he ad originally intended. Once inside the build- g, however, the uproar simmers down to the eflection of incidents of the morning. An attractively planned menu greets the diner t the doorway. From here, he progresses along e line to the cashier, choosing his platter, soup, andwiches, salads, etc., as he goes.

it has had student librarians, but this is the first year that they have ever organized into a li- brary club. These girls realize that in order to keep the ball rolling organization is necessary. Any girl from grades seven to eleven may become a librarian. Our well stocked libraries have lured approximately fifty girls Within their doors to perform the many duties which are nec- essary to keep the libraries running smoothly. Because the high school library is much larger than the grade library more girls are needed to keep it in order. Every part of the library science is taught to them. They have proved that they have learned their job well by keeping the li- brary in perfect order even in the absence of the school librarian. At the beginning of the year a schedule is planned on which the periods each girl works are designated. Not all of their free time, how- 12 ever, is taken up by library work for the neeo for some time to study is recognized. After all the books are marked and all the cards in order these girls, who have been stamp' ing volumes of bound knowledge all month, si' back and relax at their monthly meetings. Wherr the short business session is over, games, dance ing, and refreshments are a welcome change from the normal routine of school life. Library work oftentimes proves to be very valuable in later life. A knowledge of books an their arrangement in libraries is something tha will be needed many times throughout one's life as she continues to educate herself. Libraries ar our chief source to gain information. Some girl continue studying in this field to make it thei occupation. A student body which uses the library a much as we do, realize just how importan librarians are. LIBRARY ASSISTANTS -- FRONT: F. Elsesser, G. Holtzinger, F. Nelt, B. A. Snyder, D. Paules, D.
