T H E ALUMNI ASSOCIATION Strange as it may seem the Association needs members. Onlv 28 alumni have paid their dues this year. Do you enjoy the Xews Letter? If so, remember that it takes money to print it. W e must have 100 annual members each year to pay for its publication. W e should have more than the minimum of members, however, for the surplus funds in the general treasury are used to make loans to Library School students, who would be unable otherwise to finish the year. Such loans are made onlv to promising students on the advice of the faculty, and not a vear goes by in which several students have not been assisted bv this fund The recipients of these loans have always repaid them promptly and the School feels that this fund is a very worth-while service on the part of the alumni.
