BOOKS FOR CHILDREN
HAMILTON LIBRARY PLAN [from ocr own correspondent] HAMILTON. Tuesday Plans to provide the senior children in the primary schools of Hamilton with free issues of fiction and general literature were approved by the Hamilton library committee last night. It was decided to adopt the Buffalo system similar to that which is operating in Auckland. Under this system a box of books is sent to each school, and the headmaster undertakes the care and distribution of them. The books are returned to the library at the end of a given period, and each school then makes a fresh selection. It was decided to seek the co-opera-tion of the Frankton Library Committee with a view to extending the system to the Frankton and Forest Lake Schools.
