classes have been collecting car
ICONS this past week. These car
toons are on the war. They have
been cut out of the newspapers and
magazines which are available.
Miss Momsen says she is going
to select the best ones and mount
them on the bulletin board. She
has at this time, quite an array of
them, so we are sure that they

play on their bulletin board. Some

clocks haven't been started yet!
Hope they are running when we
return from our vacation.

LIBRARY NEWS
AS I sit in the library, a sense
of peace and security comes over
me. Outside it is dark and stormy
the wind blows dampness and cold
ness through the very thickness
of my pre-winter clothing.
Here, in the library, can travel
to sunny California, Florida, OF
any of those places I wish might
migrate to every winter. I can
visit Alaska, North Pole, or South
Pole and realize just how lucky
I am to be in a warmer climate
or I can read simply for enjoyment
and pastime, any of the fiction
books.
All these pleasures lie in the
books here, within this one grand
building. Each book offers an op,
portunity, knowledge or recreation
whichever suits my fancy.
The library also offers me much
in the way of current news. Any
number of magazines are found in
the reading room, or my own Sank
Centre Herald, or the daily paper
Each and every individual that
steps into the library should real
lie the usefulness of this building
to them; not as a social gathering
place, but a place to find all the
opportunities of real life. If these
individuals would realize this, am
sure there would be no need for
rules and regulations concerning
talking, playing, etc., in the library
at any time.
