The announcement of this gift was made by President Frank Graham at the first meet ing of the organization. The purpose of the Friends is to bring together in an informal group a number of friends of the library who have given their time, money and materials for the enrichment of the library. Members mav nromote the in- - V A. terest of the library by giving or securing funds for building up special collections, books, newspaper files, pamphlets and manuscripts.

The Friends of the Library will perform a great service by creating gen eral funds, with no limitations attached for such emergencies. Membership According to the constitution adopted by the organization, any person interested in the ob ject of the association may be come a member.

As recognition to two men who have been instrumental in introducing into the colleges courses to enlighten the college generation on the problems of family. Dr. Groves dedicates his book "To Arthur H. Wilde who as Dean of the School of. Edu cation authorized at Boston Uni versity the first college course in preparation for family life and Harry W.
