New Charging and Cataloging System Introduced—Librarian '27 '27 Offers Some Timely Hints.

During the vacation many improve- ments were made in the equipment and arrangements of the Hirst Library and every effort is now being made by the librarian and his assistants to arouse a general interest among the students on the Hilltop in the library and its facilities. A new catalogue system has been intro- Soph omore duced and a corresponding method of numbering of volumes will make it ex- tremely easy for the reader to imme- diately secure any book, and also to quickly inform himself on any subject of interest. Hereafter, every student TEA DANCE must secure a library card, and have it in his possession in obtaining or return- ing a book. These cards may be had on application at the office of the librarian. at The librarian also announces a new charging system. In its physical aspect the library has been greatly improved by the installation The New Willard of an entirely new lighting arrangement, by the addition of a handsome magazine rack and a very satisfactory change in the newspaper section. It is stated that some hundreds of new volumes on a variety of topics have been recently added FRIDAY, JAN. 16th to the circulation. All this, of course, as the librarian explains, is to stimulate the interest of the average student in the 4 to 7 P. M. uses and advantages of the reading room and library. But, as he points out, a student must first familiarize himself with the facilities of the library before he can make any intelligent application of its advantages. This initial step, he de- clared, very naturally rests with the stu- dent himself. Once he has presented him- self on the ground floor, the librarian and his assistants stand prepared by coun- sel and advice, to direct his efforts in the battle for self-improvement. "For it is a battle," concluded the librarian, "and '27 '27 here in the library we have a major por- tion of the ammunition."

However to debate the question would be idle—we are ready to face the fact that such is our reputation. We are determined to offer, not in fruitless and empty speculations but in, deed, con- clusive proof of our class spirit and of our college spirit. On January 16th, the Class of '27 will hold a Tea Dance at the Willard. Has it ever occurred to the student body that most of the class dances have been purely class affairs—that they have not offered any tangible evidence of true college spirit? We intend to make our dance a college function—we mean to make it truly indicative not only of class spirit but also of college spirit. We are not look- ing for material profit but aim solely to elevate the Sophomore Class to its proper position in the school. We aim to erase what we hope is a false im- pression. We hope to give new life and vigor to the real Georgetown spirit, which may be characterized as individual generosity and sacrifice for the good of all. Every Sophomore has pledged himself to support this dance. There is no fur- ther evidence required to prove our class spirit. Permit us to offer what we con- sider to be conclusive proof of our col- lege spirit. THE HOYA, The Journal and the Inter-Hall Athletic League are un- doubtedly activities that are truly repre- sentative of college spirit.
