SCHOOL LIBRARY
Among the various activities spon¬
sored by the P. T. A., the school library
is one of the biggest and most far
reaching.
An attractive room at the school
building has been donated for the pur¬
pose and is well arranged as to equip¬
ment, heat and lighting facilities.
The collection of books on hand has
been supplemented by a number of
new ones, made possible by an appro¬
priation from P. T. A.
A librarian is in charge and the stu
dents are applying themselves dili¬
gently in research work. The most pop¬
ular books constantly patronized are
the New International Encyclopedia
and the Book of Knowledge recent ad¬
ditions to the shelves.
The teachers are preparing programs
encouraging the use of the library,
which meet with ready response fron,
their pupils.
It has been suggested that donations

begun so bravely by the P. T. A. and
supported heartily by Supt. Yaden and
all members of the school faculty will
meet with the co-operation of the citi¬
zens of Covington.
The school library can be made one
