Then, to our silent room
Come sounds of the wood and seas,
Twitter of Joyous birds.
Hum of the summer bees
Lovers whose bliss we share:
Heroes whose brave deeds thrill
Our hearts with the fires Of youth:
Poets whose visions fill.
our souls with joy sublime
Intimate hope and desire
Till the bonds of earth and time,
The burdens that chafe and tire.
Are loosed in the vision bright,
And our souls transfigured stand,
Illumed with the golden light.
That was never on sea or land
oh, infinite fields Of thought.
Where, free from earth's stress ant
thrall,
We walk with the souls who hav,
wrought,
Who have braved and conquered all;
Have. won from sorrow and paid,
From struggle, defeat, and loss,
Srow from the crimson stain,
Crowns from the bitter cross.
These are the souls we meet,
And with them JOY and aspire.
As we sit by their sacred feet,
BY the quiet evening fire.
So, friend Of the steadfast heart,
Friend of the loving look,
When you would give me gift,
Always give me a book.

THE BOOK
SHELF

As this is "Childrens Book Week"
throughout the country, librarians are
emphasizing better books for children.
and book dealers, who cooperate,
are putting on sale the highest grade
of reading matter for the children.
Childrens' book week as a national
campaign was organized in 1919 on
the initiative of the American Book
sellers Association and has the CO.
operation of the American Library
Association, the Boy Scouts of Amer
ica, and the General Federation of
Women's Clubs. The success of the
Week in 1919. has caused a demand
for its repetition, and the week will be
an annual affair.
"Oh, he has counsel at his side,
And wisdom for his duty,
And laughter gay for hours of play
And tenderness and beauty,
And fellowship divinely rare,
True friends who never doubt him,
lUnchanging love, and God above,
Who keeps good books about him."
EDGAR A. GUEST.
This week at the County Library
the childrens' room has been crowded
with children both afternoon and
night. Each child brings the Home
Reading List" which was given out in
the schools this week from which they
are reading in order to get a Home
Reading Certificate, The library book
number is printed on the lists after
each title and the children are taught
to find the books on the shelves and
thus become acquainted with library
arrangement and quickly feel at home
in library surroundings.
'The Best Gift"
A Christmas poem by one Of our
Oregon authors is most appropriate at
| this time of the year and in connec-
tion with Childrens' Book Week. Mrs.
Ekin Starrett of Portland is the auth
or Her book "The Charm Of Fine
Manners is on the Freshman Home
Reading List, though well suited for
grades both higher and lower. other
books by this author are "After col
lege, what?" and "Crocus and winter
green" from which this poem is taken.
What shall you give me, dear?
Now that the happy time
For the giving Of gifts Is near,
And the bells of Christmas chime?
Friend of the steadfast eyes,
Friend of the loving look,
Quickly my heart replies:
Always give me a book.
For you and know, dear heart,
As the swift-winged years go by,
And the vaIours Of youth depart,
And the waiting days draw nigh,
What joy and cheer may come
IL the quiet fireside nook
The strife Of the world shut out
With a shaded lamp and book.
