WEEK

Miss Smith was proud to announce
to the library board that her promo
ton of Book Week interest in No
vember had caused her the sale of
$188 worth of books for the homes.
There was no profit made on this
sale but served the purpose of carry
ing out the slogan Of the week "More
Books in the Homes" Many of
these beautiful volumes have not yet
made their appearance on the book
shelves but are laid away for choice
Christmas gifts, the kind that never
fails to charm.
