(Written for The Chronicle) " Thin the need of a children's li brary should exist in Clinton seems contradictory to the nature of its people. Clinton is primarily a town of culiure, where live people whose interests are intellectual. Our citi zens have provided adequately for the reading needs of the adults, but they have not been so provident for the children. The child of today is keen, alert, responsive and constantly seeking satisfying stimuli. The average home can not select, gnance and supply up-to-date, scientiflce, well-balanced, and attractive books. The reading material found in oui* grammar schools is inadequate and meager in supply. Shall we, parents and friends, per mit this gross negligence to con tinue? The Florida Street Parent-Teacher association hopes not. This organiza tion in realizing the need of more and better books for the children of Clinton and proper guidance in their selection, is sponsoring a campaign to raise sufficient funds to provide them with these essentials. Let us unite whole-heartedly, .give liberally of our money, and provide a worthwhile, wholesome library and thereby help mold the minds of our own children.
