Announcement was made thig
week by Miss Ann Sheldon, li-
brarian of Ingleside Public Li-
brary, that the library .is in ur-
gent need of children’s books. The
books arc needed to satisfy the
reading desires of those in the
6 to 12 year age group particular-
ly, Miss Sheldon stated.
The issuance during the sum-
mer of free library cards to school
age youngsters and of reading
certificates to those completing
10 books has led to a “run” on
plans for the coming season.
A financial report of the past
year will be given and the new
camera purchased last-year will
be on display. All nf fhl
community are urged to attend
this meeting and take a part in

the supply of children’s books is
far from adequate, the librarian
said.
