New Perspectives Gained By Contact With Library Books

A silrprising thing in connection with the Prince Edward Isllllld d8- moirstraticu library movement is the appeal which it has succeeded in hulking-not merely t0 those of

_ “bookislfl tastes, but to all sorts and . conditions

of persons. This, of course, was the object of the move- ment. but the success attained in this d‘ "ection, in the brief period of less than three years, has been tru- ly lrlriiirlzzlble, Here are a few of the many tributes received by the library authorities from all parts of the Province.

From a busy housewife in King's County: "Cfodny, \vhile I perform my daily (fillies, I contemplate with cheerful anticipation. an evening with Palgmves ‘Golden Treasury‘, Wilfred Owen's War poems, or an anthology of Modern Verse. Every- day lilo, narrow, trivial, frivolous, of which I had heretofore been tired, takes on anew perspective, and I find my imagination stimula- ted to such a degree that I actually cross the threshold of reality to the world oi‘ fancy and delight. The library, too, has strengthened the family circle, While little sister is grateful to Hons Christian Ander- sen for the pathetic story of ‘The Little Match Girl’, the older sister is deep in a romance by Kathleen Norris or Temple Bailey. Brother is thonkfill for the books he has bor- rowed on aviation, sail boat racing or deep sea fishing. Father enjoys his evenings, rcodln8_ QQQQEES;

biography, politics, gardening or is it Beverly Nichols‘ ‘Cry Haircc’? At any rate he is interested; while mother is enraptured with the older classics—with Thackeray, Addison, Hawthorne or Wordstvorth."

A college student writes: "I found the reference books especially help- ful in my studies. Quite reasonably, textbooks, however wisely selected, are never to be considered complete or exhaustive. If you wish to make any considerable advance in a. par- ticular subject, other sources must be consulted. Thus, it is the in- formation that I have, of my own accord, searched out from those books, that, I have found the most readily understood, the most easily remembered. It sometimes happen- ed that I wanted a certain essay or treatise not then in the library. I had only to fill out n. request card which. in a. short while, brought the desired volume."

A convalescent writes: “Whereas before time dragged on my hands, I now look forward to each new day, when I may veilture forth into new lands and make new discover- ies through the medium of the branch library. My outlook on life has brightened. ‘To be the picture of health one must be in a good frame of mind’ is indeed n true say- ing; and I verily believe that the library has helped in this respect to a considerable degree, by whipping up my ambition which has lagged during the past few years of ill health.”

A member of the Women's Instit- utes writes: "The library has been of very practical help to me. If I am having a party for the children I know I can obtain a “party book" which almost insures success. It’ I have a paper to prepare for an In- stitute meeting, I can rely on get- ting subject mutter at the library; or if it is a problem in gardening, soil or fertilizer which Ls annoying me I find ready help. Again, if my familiar cooking recipes have be- come tiresome. I turn to the library Cook Books, I had almost forgot- ten to mention the help I get. from the books oil sewing, decorating and craft work, which have been of im- mense value."

Another correspondent writes: “My chief concern is with art in the form of painting, and I um very grateful for the help which the Carnegie library has afforded me in this connection."

Still another writes of having found "relief from loneliness. and a right companion for every mood” on the library bookshelves.

Assured by its success of an im- portant role to play in the educa- tion oi’ the youth of the province. Prince Edward Island's second an- nual hobbies exhibition was near its close last night.

The three days of display of the work of the island's youth in var- ious branches of art. craft and science were over and the 400 odd exhibits had been tagged accord- ing to judgment passed on their merits. Only the grand closing en- tertainment and presentation of prizes remained to be held.

Prizes will be given to the suc- cessful exhibitors Tuesday night and prize-winning dancing, dram- atic and musical performers will be called upon to demonstrate the proficiency for which they were selected to bvzn- honors in their respective classes. The program will be carried out in Prince of Wales College Hall,

On show during the three-day exposition were exhibits of work in model aircraft designing, boat- building, photography and draft- ing, radlocraft, performances in dancing of various types, public- speaking and dramctics and recit- als in the art of music, Besides, displays of every form of youth- ful and adult hobby were among the large number of entries.

The second annual exhibition which is living up in the greatest measure to the purpose for which it was designed-to foster and as- sist the development and expres- sion of individual talent in the youth of the province-will reach its climax during the closing cere- monies.

Specialty features at the closing entertainment on Tuesday night will include a dramatic monologue, Wolf Cubs Pack demonstration, wand drill-intermediate girls‘ gymnasium class; tumbling act- group from boys’ gym class, and a demonstration by pupils of Char- lottetown Kindergarten.

President Keith S. Rogers will have a message to the yotulg ex- hibitors to spur them to greater efforts during the time until the i037 exhibition. Mayor Turner of Charlottetown and Mayor Robin- son of Summersidc will be present.

At last night's program groups drawn from the four Girl Guide Companies and three Brownie Packs $011k P811 1n a demonstra- tion of signalling, team race, first aid, relay race and campfire.
