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.
