In the juvenile department the reading is divided into the same classes as in the adult. -Here the library officials have found the nat- ural science class the most popular. In this class are included the Jungle Tales and otheranimal stories. The sociology class comes next, and in this are books of folk-lore, myths and fairy tales.

' . Class Books Grow in Favor _ 4 The librarianreports that the cir- I" culation of class books is rapidly in- creasing. The term class is ap- plied to\any book other than just a story. The literature class, which in- cludes all literary -works in the li- brary, in essay, poetry or prose form, is the most popular of the classes. Travel, biog`raphy and history come next. The useful arts class satises the need of` people desiring. useful information _to assist them in their work, whether" it be business or! household V problems. The books in ' the ne arts class are taken out by, people interested in music and art,. or by. those desiring `information about games, amusements or enter- tainments`.

On the shelves aroundl the.librarian s/esk can be found} the reference books which prove invaluable` for students in need: of statistics or other special informa-; tion. There is also _a plentiful sup-; lply of popular magazines, outside of } newspapers, which may be read at! the desks provided for that purpose. . _ One feature in connection with y the library which has proven a great I success is the Saturday morning chil- . dren s story hour. The story hour is imxa/:n um` m----- --~~--'- ' " ,1 `To a large eictent the librarian M holds the future of the Barrie youth! in her hands. For it is she who can{ direct the "young book-worms to! the shelves that contain books by au-_i thors of the highest character. Books may be roughly placed in two classes; thosevthat are merely pleasant com-E panions and those that are also teach- : ers.and' educators. The first class is good, but the second is infinitely su-' .perior, as they instruct as well as` entertain.

" For a book is ` something more than paper" and ink, `or printed pages bound into a vol- ume. This is the bdtiy of a book; but books have souls--`-the minds of their authors--which continue to live in them and" influence other minds which come under their spell. Milton I in his Areopagitica says: Books! are not absolutely dead things, butl do contain a progeny of life in them `; as active as that soul whose progeny {r they are; nay, they do preserve as in ii a vial the purest efficacy and extrac- `W tion of that living intellect that bred 1 them. , .
