Children's Book
Week Observance
Set at Library
The Jackson County library
this week joins with libraries
all over the country in the
40th birthday of Chlidren's
Book Week.
Again the slogan, "Explore
with Books" highlights dis
plays, posters, articles, pro
grams, and book fairs focus
ing attention on the import
ance of good books for chil
dren.
The idea of Children's
Book Week originated with
the late Franklin K. Math
iews, chief librarian of the
Boy. Scouts of America, who
soon- found an enthusiastic
supporter in Frederic Melch
er, president of R. R. Bowker
Publishing company. Togeth
er they enlisted the help of
outstanding librarians and
booksellers, and in 1919 the
first Children's Book Week
was held. Jessie Willcox
Smith, famous illustrator of
children's books, designed
the first poster in that year.
Participate in Observance .
The Medford Public library,
with all branches of the
Jackson County library, is
participating in the observ
ance by inviting boys and
girls in the area to" visit the
children's room and be intro
duced to the fun of reading
good books.
School classes and junior
organizations are particular
ly welcome to schedule li
brary tours during this week,
according to Mrs. Synthia Mc
Kay and Miss Rosemary
Stevenson, who will be in
charge of arrangements.
Highlights of the event
will be a week-long display
in the children's room of new
books for children of all ages,
presided over by the Good
Book Fairy; and, since this is
also National Art Week, a
two-day showing of the work
of local artists, presented by
the Association of American
University Women.
Library Closed
The library staff regrets the
necessity of closing the li
brary during Children's Book
Week for the election day
holiday; however, displays
will be continued into the
following week through Nov.
10, to make up for this.
MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Sunday, Novombor 2. ItSI 7
The junior department will
be open on Monday nights,
Nov. 3 and 10, instead of on
Tuesday nights, Nov. 4 and
11, which are holidays.
Branch libraries too will
have special displays and
colorful posters with bright
bookmarks to be given each
child who visits the library
during Children's Book Week.

MEMBERS FULL CITIZENSHIP RIGHTS! z
si
PURPOSE: 13 X YES will amend Oregon constitution
to permit employees or members of a school board
or employees of the JJoard of Higher Education to
retain their legislative seats when resuming their
regular ppsitions. ,
WHY NECESSARY: School employees and school
board members may currently serve as legislators.
Educators take leaves of absence from their teaching
or other positions, drawing no salary from such position
while absent. BUT, on resuming their regular, fbU
time positions, they must resign as legislators.
This reduces their effectiveness.
