This would relieve the crowded condition, and the corner. now given to the children couldl be used for the aflit books. 1t is earnestly hoped that something will be done, soon. ‘Rho idea of a children's room has been thought of, and discussed over a period of time. With the wealth of cliii- dreifs books that are available throtlih the Prince Edward Island Libraries. it seems regrettable I that a proper room, with super- vision is not forthcoming.
