As in the past, the library has been conducted by student librarians under the supervision of Miss Ainsworth. The library staff consists of regular librarians and as- sistant librarians who work in their absence. Students who work in the library for the first time meet once a week to study the correct library procedures. New bookcases were installed under the blackboard on the south side of the li- brary. Forty new books were ordered during the first semester and approximately the same number were ordered during the second semester. During Book Week, which was the week of November 16-22, there was a display of the new books in the Yur-Shop window. In order to interest students in the work of the Library Club, to reward the li- brarians who have worked diligently and :faithfully to improve the library and to assist students in finding the material they need, the members of the club voted to purchase library pins which will be awarded at the end of each semester to those who have ful- filled their requirements. The requirements for the library pins are: TWENTY-EIGHT

They were very happy to welcome their instructor, Miss Vivian Erwin, as there had been no music department the previous year. The Chorus presented the annual Christmas program, Carols by Candlelight, at the Church of Christ. The girls wore uniform white blouses and dark skirts. Sue Carol Silvernail read The Littlest Angel. Also a group of girls went caroling during the Christmas season. The Glee Club presented its spring festival early this spring. They sang a group of classical, semi-classical, and popular songs. The girls in the Club wish to extend their appreciation and thanks to Miss Erwin for her supervision. They also thank Patricia Wise who accompanied them on the piano. THIRTY
