tative body of Alabama young women, Among the number are the librarians of the Birmingham public schools, the Avon dale public library, the Southeastern Ala bama Agricultural school and the Second District Agricultural school. Miss kossie Wilson, one of the class, has been ap- pointed librarian of the Meridian College library since the pending of the course.
 Other members of the class have en- gagged to do work with several of the pub lie and school libraries of the state.
 Will Continue Study.
 About one-half the class will continue their studies at the Carnegie library in this city for the next 30 days under the special instructions of Miss Jesse Hop- klns, so thoroughly interested have they become in their studies.
 The class has been favored with an un- usually fine schedule of lectures, which have been broadening and helpful Among the lecturers have been Hon. Thomas II. Clark, Hon. Junius H. Riggs state and supreme court librarian; Hon. John II. Wallace. Jr., Hon. J. A. Wilkinson, Hon H. c. Gunnels, Miss Sara Clark, Chief Justice John R. Tyson of the supreme court; Hon. w. E. Fort, Major A. C. Sex ton and Dr. Thomas M. Owen.
 The lectures were largely devoted to the administration of the several departments of which these men are the head
 However the two lectures of Hon. Thomas H. Clark are an exception, his first lecture being devoted to the Library of Congress and the second lecture being a popular exposition of the importance and value of the free public library. MT Clark for number of years has been en- gagged in higher library work in Washing ton city, At one time he was librarian or the law library of the supreme court or the United States. He has an unusually keen appreciation of library work and ms lectures were highly profitable. In the first he described the magnificent home Of the Library of Congress, and its workings and value to the people. In the latter he dwelt at length upon the value of H. braries In his lecture he developed con sderation of the library the public H. brary and the free public library, the lat ter being in his opinion one of the most important and widely useful educational agencies of the times
 To much praise cannot be accorded Miss Nimmo Greene for her part as head ln- structor in making the course splendid success.
