Library Notes BY ALICE BRYAN County Librarian Alex Morris had so much fun looking at "The Little Airplane" by Lois Lenski that his mother was per suaded to sign a registration card form. He carried home from the li brary both the airplane story and a book about a train, "Smoky Poky" by Martin. Alex is the two-and-a third-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Glenn Morris.

Other par ents prefer to let their children vis it the library a few times before | they take boots home with them, i How old should a child be before he uses the public library? A child j should be brought to the library ; when he begins to be interested in books. He should have his own li brary registration eard and borrow , books to take home as soon as he I ; shows an interest in turning the ! pages and looking at the pictures on :each page. / Can small children be trusted , with library books? Accidents to li brary books are no more common with the young library users than with the older children. Even adults j sometimes bring back not only dam aged books, but also books that have to be elected before they can be loaned to other readers! A small child will, upon occasion, especially when tired or angry, tear or throw down a library book, or even break his most c herished possession. Most j children are easily trained to care1 for their own books and the books they borrow from the public library. !
