Reader: "No, I never heard of it."

Librarian: "It was ready the day after the library opened, was

sold for five cents, and the first edition of a thousand copies

was exhausted so soon that a second had to be printed. Have you

ever heard of the lists of interesting books in connection with

Greek, Roman and English history given to high school pupils' or

the records kept for years by the North School children of books

which they have read, and sent to the librarian to be commented

on and criticised in an hour's friendly talk in the school room,

or the letters written on the use of the library by pupils in the

other schools?"
