RETURN from n. k. a.
\ I a \UONAL i ION v l EN I ION
James Luten, principal of Wood-
ville School, and Robert Young,
instructor at Haven Home School,
returned to the city last Tuesday
from Portland, Oregon, where they
had been in attendance at th'e
National Educational Association's
convention. They report a wonder¬
ful experience.
Fhe theme of this 94th conven-
I;,-m was “Proud to Teach.” Around
100 delegates and visitors took
r the city. Most of the sessions
were held at Civic Auditorium. One
se ion was held at the stadium.
Although there have been only
9-1 sessions, the organization is
100 years old.
Messrs. Luten and Young spent
two days following the convention
in sightseeing and were thrilled at
the beauty of the buildings and
scenery. They were particularly
impressed with the City of Roses,
desert lands and mountains. They
had the pleasure of seeing Indians
do their native dances in native
attire.
A complete report of the activi¬
ties at the convention will be giv¬
en at the first meeting uf the local
association.
Superintendent W. ,A. Early who
also attended the convention ar¬
rived in the city a few days be¬
fore the above mentioned.

SOCIALLY
The Mutual Benevolent Society
has done it again. The members
do enjoy helping to make life hap¬
pier for their friends. On last
Wednesday they were hosts at a
most enjoyable basket picnic at
Wilmington Island. There was
plenty of cold beverages for the
grown ups and ice cream for the
kiddies. A thousand thanks from
all who were able to attend and
also from those who for various
reasons found it impossible to at¬
tend. It's hard to beat a good old
time basket picnic.
The Wolves, their wives and
friends enjoyed a wonderful trip
to Bradley Beach aboard The Visi¬
tor. The day was ideal and the
atmosphere most congenial. Be-
for going on down the beach,
the group relaxed, lounging
around in comfortable chairs in
the huge living room of the sum¬
mer home of Dr. and Mrs. S. M.
McDew after eating. Later on, the
group rode on down to the pa¬
vilioned area to enjoy swimming
or just riding the waves. (The
beach- is just a short distance from
the McDew home).

home. It is a two story structure.

LAST MONTH AT
YOUR LIBRARY
By E'Uzabth L. Atkinson
If I remember correctly, I prom¬
ised my readers a report on Un-
American Library Association
Conference which convened last
nnnth, June 17-29. on lieautiful
Miami Beach. It was my good
ortune to spend four wonderful
lays attending meetings, viewing
he sights .(of which there are
nany) and shopping on the fab-
dous Lincoln Road.
Aside from the various work-
hops, presentations of special
twards to those who made out-
tanding contributions to the field
>f library service, panel discus-
ions and exhibits, there were
nany highlights worthy of men-
ion.
"uesda.v (June 19) was Public Li-
nary Day and practically all
events scheduled that day weri
ponsored or co-sponsored by the
hiblie Libraries Division. It was
m this day that the announcement
vas made that President Eisen-
lower hud signed a 37'u billion
lollar public aid to rural libraries
bill. The American Library As-
sociation has, for 10 years, been
promoting the hill which author-
ires 7'-j billion dollars in match
ing funds in each of the next five
years to develop library services
in rural areas. The passing of this
hill means that library service will

Another highlight of the Con¬
ference was the Story Telling Fes^
tival, each of which was held for
three consecutive days featuring
famous storytellers from tins U. S,
and Europe.
The Children’s Library Associa¬
tion held an auction of seventy-
five very special children’s books,
including first editions, special au¬
tographs and inscriptions and
many original drawings. The pro¬
ceeds from the auction will bene¬
fit the Frederic G. Meleher Schol¬
arship fund for librarians.
The Public Libraries Division
held an A B C Party; A, B, C, re¬
fers to authors, books and con¬
versation. Librarians in groups of
eight sat together, sipped cocltt
tails and discussed the “Notable
Books of 1955." by the way, we
have some of them at Carnegie.
I did not arrive in time on Sun¬
day to go on the Dream Boat
Cruise on Biseayne Bay but word
reached me that it was especially
lelightful. Box lunches were
ierved and authors of children's
looks who are living in Florid*
were guests.
All accredited library schools
planned either a breakfast, lunch-
■on, tea or a dinner meeting dur-
ng the Conference period for theil
alumni. >’
It goes without saying that thfc
uecess of this meeting of ALA
was tremendous and the hospital-
ty of the Florida Library Associ¬
ation could not have been sur¬
passed. , J'
Miss Hatcher reports having
had a wonderful vacation in Nas-
-au. which is filled with local
color and many interesting sight*.

inext week's edition of this papers.
