NOISE IN THE LIBRsRY
We don't realize how mech noise there
is in tho school library. Thore is mech
more «fter school than during eghool
hourse People do not realize tht when
everybody is talking, it m.kes a great
deal of noise for the 1i1b: ans, and
for those who want to study.
After all, why do we go in the litrary?
Most people como {yn to work, but somo
go in just to got togethor and trlk,
and we can't possibly do our work so
well with everybody talking. Thoro
are other places besides tho library
where this conversation can go ons
(continued in next column)
Volurne TIL Number 2 &
It would be much quicter if pooplo
would talk, if thoy havo to tlk, to
poople only at thoir own desks ond in
library tones. Peoplo often. insist
on cclling ucross the room or to the
next tablo and this distrects some
people from their work.
The Only way this noiso can be over~
como is by everybody coopersting, and
in this way, we can got more work done
in the library cnd we would have loss
to do ‘.t home.

spend money foolishly thet we would
perhaps save if we hind banking.

WALKING
Some people ‘mble down the hill;
Others run snd elmost fall,
Mrybe somo go limping past,
But most of thom go very fast.
Some who pass have & heavy lond,
4nd look as if thoy should be towed;
I think the better way to go, ‘
Is not too fast and not too slow.
