W LIBRARY Our library is not such a large one but it is large com- pared with some of the other small schools; we are very proud of it. We now have eight librarians working on our library staff. Some of the librarians have never done any ol tnis kind of work before but seemingly they all enjoy the work. The librarians meet once a month, the time of T:he meetings being the activity period. The library club has many aims and purposes. Miss Hold- en, the county librarian, attends each of our meetings. She discusses for us the various aims and purposes of a good lib- rary, how to know good bo oks, the value of reading good books, and ow librarians can best esta blish a good library made of sood purposes. She also took up the subject of dewey dec- imal, tbis being the system by which bocks are numbered.

Tbe school subscribes for seventeen different kinds ol man-azines. The librarians bind them as they are received, this is to reserve them. One member of the club has this task.
