National <strong>Library</strong> Week in April and Children's<br />

Book Week in November were observed by displays<br />

of posters and new books. The theme for the Children's<br />

Book Week very attractive poster was "Three<br />

Cheers for Books."<br />

This year the exhibits on the peg board and<br />

in the display cases were in charge of my assistant,<br />

Mrs. George Hadley. Descriptions and pictures of<br />

the displays appeared each month in the Hampton<br />

Union and drew not only local people but visitors<br />

from out of town. We thank all those who have been<br />

willing to loan articles for the displays and to arrange<br />

them.
