THE SHELVES OF KNOWLEDGE Anyone who has written a term paper or given a report of any kind has found the library to be of great value in re- searching the available information. From the various fields of study in high school, a student is expected to find his in- formation through outside reading. With this in mind, the student seeks out an avalanche of books, magazines, and newspapers. The library has all of these things at hand and in perfect order. MRS. MARCELLE PITMAN H 921d Librarian BA.
