American sailors who visited Ice- land In connection with the round the-world airplane flight, were more than surprised when they found bobbed hair and other feminine fofbles usually associated with Paris, London and New York. There was the customa display, of silken hose, “slinker” gowns, unmarked waistlines and wrap--round skirts, with a faint aroma of black nar eissus or other Parisian perfumes hovering about the dainty persons of the wearers.

ROGERS. The report of the public library for 1924 shows a gratifying im- provement in all departments. Our funds have been sufficient to per- mit of many activities hitherto denied and neither business depres- sion nor inclement wiather affect our work in any marked degree. im- Adult* education eccuples an portant place in the world today and the brary is one of the most powerf vit forces in this More and more the people are ting and striving for cul- advancement and who can estimate the value of “the right book in the right hand at the right fleld. rculation of hooks at the library increased from 95,229 in 1928 to 120,466 in 1924, an increase of over 25,000 volume» for the year. The percentage de vooks of travel, essiys, drama, history, poetry and general reference works has gained perceptibly over the demand for fiction. Fiction still continues to be the big item for most people read for recreation but we feel we are more nearly reaching the goal of making our reading inspirational, educational as well as recreational. During the year just ended we have added 3,660 new books, giving us a total now of over 21,000 volumes. “We havo recently added 140 new volumes of bound maga- zines including National Geographic, Literary Digest, Independent, Scrib- The cj and the youth of the state. ner'’s, Atlantic Monthly and others. CLUB ACTIVITIES OF WOMEN IN WYOMING A very enthusiastic meeting of the Wheatland W. T. K. club was held Friday afternoon at the club room, when a good representation of the membership was present n spite of the busy holiday season. The roll call of Christmas customs in various lands proved very inter- esting. Rev. Speer of the Methodist church made a very interesting talk before the club on the Wheatland welfare work, and urged the club to appo'nt one representative to meet with the representatives of other lo- cal organizations in the formation of this work. The organization of this society prom'ses to eliminate the “back-door” feeding of the tramp and other “floaters,” as all such cases will be investigated and only the worthy will receive help. The officers were very much pleased with the report given by the committee on the Christmas baskets for distribution through the county. Great generosity was shown | by organizations and friends by ‘making special donations for the Christmas baskets, and many homes were made happ'er by this Christ mas thought. After other matters of business were disposed of a very well prepared program followed. Roll Call, Christmas customs in vari ous Lands Assembly Singing Short story form, the French “Conte” ........

Miss Anna Jelen, structor at Lincoln, Neb., preséted the brary with a number of ve fine ptetures of which we are justly proud. ‘These were shown at number of art exhibits over country where they created much favorable comment and we are most fortunate in having them fo: our collection. The junior department has shown a greater increase in circulation than the adult, and we have been sore pressed at times to supply the demand for “none but the best’ is our slogan for the youthful bor rowers. We endeavor to supply tho rural schools with supplementary reading matter and as these books are kept out thirty days or longer it necessitates having a number of copies of each book. The loss of many valuable book continues to distress us greatly, 11 would be a very great accommoda tion to the library if more patrons would return or report overdur books when noted or books taken from the library without charging at the desk. We are under oblig: tion to many who-ha‘e most kindl done so, also to many who havo g¢nerously donated books to th» library. These are all recorded in our gift book which 1s accessible to all. We have been obliged to take many valuable reference books from the open shelves entirely for safe- keeping. The proposed new refer ence dbpartment to be added to the library this coming year will be a great boon to us and a real joy to all doing research work. It will give additional space for pamphlet files to care for the Ree helpful leaflets which come fro: many sources. This library, being a geological depository for publica- tions of the U. 8. G. S., makes it imperative that all such be cared for and made e: of access to those using them. We now haye something over 700 of these and limited space makes clusification aifficult Several new periodicals have been added to our list this year In answer to popular demand and we now re- ceive regularly over 150 magazines, newspapers and other pertodiculs These give enjoyment to the read- ing public every day in the year, the reading rooms being kept open on Sundays and holidays as well us week days. The assembly room in the base- ment is open to the public for meet- Ings at any time conforming to library hours and fills a rea} need in the community. It is used almost every day for club meetings, com- mitteo meetings, debate work and children’s story hour programs. The administration of the lMbri is in the hands of a board of tru tees, Mr. C. H. Townsend, president; Mr. J. W. Johnson, treasurer, and Miss May Hamilton, secretary. They give freely of their time and do everything possible to promote the efficiency of the Mbrary service.
