Library NOTES

November 18th to 18th is Children's
Book Week. This is a nationwide
campaign for the betterment of juv-
emile literature; to encourage the
reading of the best books among the
children in libraries, schools and in
the home; to organize reading clubs
with which to give the children the
habit of reading good things.
In u W little library-the Park
County Free Library-the children
are sorely in need Of attention along
this line. The Juvenile section is
wholly inadequate to supply the needs
of the city and comfy. Most of the
books are badly worn and some of
theme should be withdrawn. Some
40 odd books were added in July, but
this is n mere bagatelle in comparison
with the need and demand.
There are in the library at present
about 1913 books. OF this number
about AGO are juvenile books little
over IL per cent Of the total number
of books. The American Library as
ISOLATION recommends 33 per cent of
the book appropriation be spent for
juvenile books, which makes us about
% per cen behind.
There are approximately 1900 chill
dren under high school age in the
county. of which 243, with a possible
increase to 300, according to Mr.. Har-
din, are in the Cody schools. With
1,S00 granted the privilege of drawing
books and 300 actually using them
and only 400 books in the library, car
you imagine the problem that con.
fronts the county librarian?

First Lycum Enter
tainment Pleases

The first number of the lyceum
course to be given by the Woman's
club during this winter was presented
at the Temple theatre on Monday by
the Three Patton Brothers in a Futur-
alistic Musical program.
Every available seat in the theatre
was occupied, and the audience show
their approval of the program by their
frequent and hearty applause.
In many of the number the artists
appeared in costume appropriate to
the character of the selections.
The members of the Woman's club
who have this lyceum course in
charge have reason to feel elated at
the suspicious Inauguration of this
seasons entertainments. More sea-
son tickets than ever before have al
ready been disposed of, with good in
dications that a considerable addi-
tional number will be sold before the
next program is given.
