On Friday there will be a luncheon at the Woman's Club in charge of Mrs. R. W. Green, who is at the head of the Home Economics Department of the Woman's Club.

Afterwards slides about the care of books will be shown at the library. Saturday, the last day, there will be a talk by Miss Breed on Friends in Books.
