Appreciation For Olivia Libr a ry The so-called “good old days” have | passed away as far as our system! of reading is concerned. The days of | yesterday found the first grade child in the primer or first reader. When ever he “got through," he would “right , about face” and “go through” it again. Is there any wonder that the famous j “hickory cane” was frequently used, to quiet the bright boy who had read everything he could find? Could any * one expect more than poor attend- J ance, dislike lor school, hatred of i teacher, dropping out of school, etc., ; due to the monotony of ‘going over j and over” the same %'d b%ks?

The question is elementary—too easy to go to the Olivia Raney Library. Get new books, interesting ones which will please the dull boy as well as the bright one. Listen to the words of the students concerning Olivia Raney Li brary books: “You know, Miss Hold ord, that book was so good I couldn’t lardly stand it,” remarked a very ull fifth grader—who had taken very l ittle interest in reading, until he 1 ound a book he liked.
