Urges General Use Miss Mabel . Doty, librarian, in a statement Issued today, urged all La Giniuie student to make a liberal and .profitable' use of the public 11- orurj .auruig Viiu sumiiiui yuiiihuii months, "When', tho call to, vn oat ion comes," she said, "so many students .plan H0t only on leaving the classroom ijchind but on forgetting about books' until the school bell rings again., . , . "The fact is that those stxldents who .are busjly engaged with their studies during the regular school year .find that the summer months afford them that opportunity they seek of rending exactly the books the yenjpy reading. "Another consideration Is that stu dents' are not so rushed in the sum mer. They can spend time browsing around tho library, getting acquaint ed with this store house of informa tion, they can discover, how to look for things thcf want and how to use the library efficiently and to ad vantage not only now but in years to come. . , "The library presents a real oppor tunity to students of all ages dur ing the vacation period and It is our hope that we may make many new friends during the months Immedi ately ahead."

The economic development of this country has been amazingly rapid, but it has taken quite a con siderable while' longer- than 40 months or so. If, as practical busi ness men, we are to form a balanced conception ' of tho significance of that development, of. the factors upon which it is based, and the per manent forces determining it, wo must certainly take a longer and larger" view than is comprised In the perspective of those who at this mo ment see nothing about us but col-lapse- and unending chaos. ; What adtually Is our present' eco nomic position and how does it com pare with the past when viewed In reasonable perspective? Let us look back only as far as 20 or 30 years a i short time, surely, in the course of I civilization or in the lire of ourwnl nation.
