Among the exhibits in the Frost museum case was a copy of the document signed by the Japanese when they surrendered loaned by W. Carroll Furbush, the Caldecott and Newbery medal books, and a collection of figurines and cards appropriate to Christmas.


Special thanks are due to Mrs. William K. Budge for the many flowers with which she has kept the library supplied. Other flowers have been given by Miss Marion F. Winnek, Arthur L. Hope, Miss Alice M. Howard, and Miss Carole Palmer.


The Librarian has had the privilege of attending several library meetings this year. The meeting of the American Library Association which was cancelled during the war, was held at Buffalo, New York in June. While the weather was unsatisfactory and the rooming situ- ation difficult it was a pleasure to meet old friends and gain inspir- ation. The Massachusetts Library Association has held three meetings at Harvard College in February, at Worcester in May and at Swamp- scott in October.


The circulation of magazines has increased over that of last 1 year. American Cookery has changed its name to that of Better Food.


Several new magazines have been added to the list. All except cur- rent numbers may be borrowed for one week and the list for the coming year is as follows:
