FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 1951 LIBRARY NOTES The Library would like to call the attention of the teachers to the unmounted pictures, in color and in black and white, of most of the prominent artists of the past and the present, which the Library has on file. Envelopes of these pictures may be borrowed as needed for supplementary class work. Also, we have the RECON STRUCTION OF tHE - PAST portfolios from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. These are fine engravings which show fully “Life in 18th Century England,” “Eliz abethan England,” “The French Renaissance” and “Greek Ath letes and Festivals of the Fifth Century.” For teaching any of these periods, these engravings will be a definite help. In fact, if there is anything you need in the picture line, it might be well worth your while to see if we can not supply it. If you are planning to build a house soon, either with your own hands or by contracted work, you had best set about it immediately, before government restrictions make it impossible. The library has a large selection of books on the subject which save you time and money if you will consult them beforehand: Catlin, “Build ing Your New House;” Cobb, “Your Dream House and How to Build It for Less than $3,500;” Crane, “Everyman’s House;" Creighton, “Planning to Build;” Dalzell, “Your New Home;” Dun ham, “Planning Your House for Better Living;” Eberlein, “Re modeling and Adapting the Small House;” Graff, “The Prefabricat ed House;” Henessey, “America’s Best Small Houses;” Johnstone, “Building or Buying a House;” Laidman, “How to Build Your Own House;” Rogers, “Plan Your House to Suit Yourself;” Tuomey, "How to Build Your Own House;” Williams, “Modernizing Old Hous es;” and “Old American Houses & How to Restore Them;” Mein ecke, “Your Cabin in the Woods;” Merrill, “Rammed Earth House”, and others.
