a,A Brother Thomas displays his method of inscribing all donations to R. Buffum and R. Gagne. These helpful boosters examine with pride some of the books bought with the money of the donations. They are N. Lessard, R. Boucher, R. Garriepy and P. Belanger. LIBRARY The library has become a veritable rendezvous for all intellectual activities based upon reading, research and liter- ary enjoyment. With all the improve- ments, the annual budget didn't last very long. Brother Thomas, librarian, initi- ated the Library Booster Club by which all students are invited to donate a fevv pennies weekly. This sum, scrupulously tabulated, is used to purchase new books for their reading pleasure. So far fjanu- aryj a pleasing fifty books have been ac- quired. Each book is a gift from the donator who gave the price of the book. Thanks must go to the valuable assis- tance volunteered by the library helpers. We can all take a legitimate pride in our fast-expanding volumes of treasure, a real intellectual cornucopia. All new books must be classified. N. Paquette and R. Gagne are busily at work at this rewarding, al though at times tedious, enterprise. All are invited to browse among the written Words. Here I. Conroy guides his parents to a section of the fair. 2 ki 32 72

Hi Nun -ztuzuaz 1 ,Q M S. Baiguy, M. Verville, C. Cfuertin and R. Lapointe readily found a book of interest in the varied selection. LIBRARY The Catholic Press Month theme of 1964 is Read and Unite a Changing World. This is the challenge taken up by students and faculty alike as all endeavor to donate books to our school library, to encourage reading for personal enjoyment and enrichment. Sta- tistics from Sister St. Irene, librarian, show that circulation of books is ever on the increase. Re- search, too, is done more inten- sively as college preparatory students have to do a minimum of eight term papers. Every year new acquisitions, such as the International Encyclopedia bought this year, add interest and value to our fast-expanding school library. It is not too much to say that the library is the Principal's favorite project, judging by the efforts expended in that important field. Every day dependable and obliging P. Cyr, C. Lavoic, M. Bergeron, C. Pelletier and jo Ann Ross see to the proper circu- lation of books. S. Baiguy, M, Verville, C. Cfuertin and R. Lapointe find the library Club a challenge when it comes to typing author cards and filing them correctly. 73
