The National Book slogan for 1946
is "Books An Bridges," and libraries
an urged to emphasize the reason
for selection of this slogan in this
way:
Books an bridges to understand
ing otter people; to lands around the
world; to realms of imagination and
joy; to facts and inforination; to the
world of nature; to the wonders of
science and industry; to new experi
ences; to sources of fun and enter
tainment; to appreciation and to the
building of the future.
A new interest in books has been
awakened in this community, an in
terest that is being evidenced on
every side since the fond hope of an
adequate public library building has
promise of being realised in the not
too distant future, and so more em
phasis is being placed- on Book Week
this year to promote the reading of
good books and to fan this rekindled
interest in the local library.
The Book Week committee, com
posed of Mrs. Jack Smith, librarian,
and Mrs. George Farr, wish to ex
press appreciation through the col
umns of this paper to all those who
are helping in the observance this
week, and especially to Miss Woo ten
for the use of her Window and C.
Hubert Jojnter, of the Western Auto
Associate Store for toy furnishings.
