The County library system was
organized and is now directed by
George Moreland whose leadership
has been the main factor in having
the county library in such short
time. However, Mr.. Morelan1
does not take full credit for get
ting things under way, for it would
have been impossible without a
competent staff.
Mrs. Louise Ferguson, assistant
director, is in charge of adult
books and branch libraries. Miss
Charlotte Clark is in charge o.
bookmobile service and children's
books. Mrs. Reba Harris heads
the department. of cataloging ard
preparation of books. Miss Mar
tina Rouse will be the librarian of
the first bookmobile and Graydon
Harris serves the seven branch IL
braries by delivering and collecting
books daily via station wagon. The
amount of clerical work involved
is tremendous and this work is
done by Mrs. Lucille Hcuts, typist-
secretary; Mrs. Rose Moore, Mrs.
Dorothy Watson, Mrs. Constance
Christian, and Miss Betty Byrne,
who serve as clerical assistants.
The jobs at the Central Library
are many and varied, the principal
one being the supplying of the
branch libraries and bookmobiles
with books and necessary supplies.
However, before this can be done,
books must be ordered and later
catalogued. In preparing a book
for use MANY details are involved,
and when all these are multiplied
by 80 900 books, one can readily
see that Mr.. Moreland and his staff
have few idle moments during their
working hours from $3.50 to 5:15
Monday through Friday. In add
ton to cataloging, there are such
Jobs as tipping cards for the books,
inserting book pockets, covering
the books with plastic covers, and
checking orders. All this = be-
fore book is ready to be Dor
rowed.
Mr.. Moreland stated that while
6. library is primarily a place to
borrow books, it is really much
more than that, for here can he
borrowed a motion picture machine
with films.

She said, too, that Maryland is
the third State to change its laws
to conform with those of the Fed
eral government in attempts to
curtail the use and illegal sale of
drugs.
During the morning session, re-
ports were heard from the mem
bers Of the Federation. Mrs.
George T. Condron presided. The
Woman's Club of Rockville was
the hostess club. Mrs. Alfred Kay
is president of the local club.
In addition to Mrs. Baldwin,
member of the Woman's Club of

Welsh, president of the Montgom-
cry County Medical Society, Mrs.
J. Arnatt, Mrs. William B. Clat-
tanoff, Mrs. X. w. Kingsbury, and
Rev. Mr.. Howard o. Cobb.
In her talk, Mrs. Baldwin said
the Federal Government is at
tempting to do away with traffic
in narcotics and that it maintains
two hospitals for the treatment of
addicts, one at Lexington, KY, and
one at FIT. Worth, Texas.
1t was pointed out that no spe-
cial facilities for treatment of adj
diets are provided in Maryland and
that treatment is provided at
State hospitals along with mental
cases. She added, "such hospitals
are not the right place to cure
young addicts.'
In the matter of treatment of
young addicts, Mrs. Baldwin said
careful home training and affection
are needed. She cautioned that
parents should know what their
"young folks are doing" and EN-
phasized that the highest percent
age of increased addiction follows
war and national emergencies. She
said the situation can be controlled,
however, if the public will cooper
ate, inform ITSELF and if proper
