and David j. Reinhardt. There has
been an indiscrimiuate use of some

are served with notice by Librarian
Amos d. BrintOn that the limit has
expired. Oftentlmcs these notices
are ignored, and books have been
kept out mOre than two months by
some attorneys who desire to use
them In looking up cases. Heretofore
TIE penalty for keeping a volume out
beyond five days las been five cents
fine for each day that the book is not
returned.
1t was decided by the commit ee
that in the future when member
fails to return q book within five
days, a note will oe served ON him.
After that date a fine OF five cents
for each dav will be imposed. II the
book is not returned within sixty days
