number of the program was carried
out. The first triumph of the' en
tire program was won by the Fresh
men on Tuesday afternoon when
they defeated the Sophmore baseball
team./ The teams were well match
ed and the game was a Close one.
The Sophs, were especially distin
guished for their “sky scrapers” and
the Freshmen for the manner in
which they caught them, scoring
“outs” on the opposing team.
Both teams had excellent players.
May Childs and Jessie Dyar did splen

Fenn is the captain. Annie Mae
Brown and Clara Scarborough scor
ed several home runs for the
Freshmen. Florene Johnson is the
captain and pitcher of the Fresh
man team.
Not only did the teams do hard
work, but the “rooters” for each side
were busy between the innings,
cheering the combatants-
The line-up was as follows:
Sophmores: Captain and pitcher,
Allene Fenn; Catcher, Jessie Dyar;
Lois Summerali; Alma Webb, Mae
Childs, Winnie Mae Adams, Frances

Johnson.
Freshmen: Florene Johnsor, An

OWED TO G- N. I. C.
Here it was, two days ago, > .
They came to us,. God willed it so.
We entertained them quite informal,
These- lovely Janes of Georgia Nor
mal
They each paraded, Cap' and Gown,
Much to the wonder of our town,
And Mercer looked first overawed,
Then in delight they jumped and
jawed.
And each one wore a smile, serene.
They have no use for the coffee bean.
They sat and ate at the festive board
And heard the speeches, plainly
gored.
They stood three hours of word'at
tack,
Then herded out they started back,
A pleasant day they said was-theirs,
We, like the Gods, love cheerful liars.

ry. Far from being a mere accum
ulation of books, the modern library
is something dynamic, an aggressive
social and educational force; far
from being the exclusive province of
j women, it now hiss important open-
I ings for hundreds of men. Not con-
• tent with serving only those who en-
•1 ter its doors, the library of todsy is
! taking .books, both to the people who
! live too far away to call for them
and to those who are not even aware
until afterwards that they want and
heed books. The mountain is going
to Mohammed.
The engineers engaged in moving
the mountain, librarians, if you will,
are virile and accomplished. The
head librarian of a large library is
the execuGve head of a plant which
employs hundreds of workers and
annually spends thousands of dol
lars. Such a position calls for a
man of resourcefulness who is at
once a. business mart, an educational
executive, and a social worker. His
duties involve constant contact with
officials, the public, and a large
staff. ~
The man with technical knowledge
is qualified for research iibrarianship
with large ndustrial concerns for ex
ample, whose scientific libraries are
as important as their experimental
laboratories. Other '“special” libra
ries are connected with professional
organizations and government de-
partmente. Work in college and
university libraries affords associa
tion with the best minds, in the coun
try and provides an attractive oppor
tunity for research. State Library
Commission, work invqpves library
promotion and supervision.
That no good librarian is eyer in
I want of a position is no less true
than that there are at present many
positions ^without good - librarians.
This condition is caused by the steady
growth of libraries now in existence
and the number of new ones yearly
being established. Existing libraries
are extending their work by means
of traveling collections and mail or
der service. New libraries are be
ing started in high, schools, in coun
ty seats, and in various institutions.
Librarians’ salaiie, which now
Librarians’ salaries which now
■iged in other educational work, are
continuing to increase as a result of
the great demand for workers. And
aside from that compensation which
conies in .the form of a pay check
is the vast satisfaction felt by the
man who is not only gaining in-
knowledge and, culture, but is help
ing others as well-
Librarianship offers an interesting
opportunty for the student who
wants to do important, creative
work which leads to the position of
authority to which a college educa
tion entitles him.
