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. MERCER MONTAGUE CLUB.

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. -—A.
