REGISTRATION OF HOTEL

be the cause Of the growing influN
of visitors.

the purchase Of a number of tents
for the accommodation of the sum-
mer guests has been decided upon.
"The paving Of the state highway

be expected. Ashland Is faced with
the problem Of being able to house
these transient guests"

chase of tents has been seriously cen
sidered for the accommodation of the

ASHLAND LIBRARY LEADS
IN JUVENILE CIRCULATION

Thirty-eight per cent of the book
circulation from the Ashland free
public library is among children OF
grammar and junior high school age
according to Miss Blanche Hicks,
librarian. This, she states is us
usual to the point of being five per
cent higher than what is considered
q good average In the cities through
out the country.
II Is estimated that at least fifty
books a day are taken out by juve-
miles, Miss Hicks gives the credit
of this record to the Parent-T Teachers
association, who beginning In June
of the last summer vacation inaugup-
ated a reading course which was
found to be so practncal as to be
continued indefinitely.
Z, Fhe> course planned by the associa-
tion calls for the reading OF ten
selected books which are reported
ON by the children to their respective
teachers. 1t is noticeable, Miss
Hicks says, that this form OF educa-
tion to the use OF the library has led
to more general use of the reference
department as supplementary to
school work. This work 1t is stated
has been encouraged every possible
way BY both the librarian and the
teachers. All pupils completing the
