KY. LIBRARY ASSOCIATION

Miss E. K. Corwin, College Librarian, attended the Kentucky Library Association at Lawrenceburg, Oct. 3rd and 4th.

The meeting was unusually interesting and profitable with an attendance of forty, who were most hospitably entertained in the homes of the townspeople.

The outside feature rivaled their trip to Indian Fort Mountain last year. They were conveyed in carriages and autos to Tyrone and at Tyrone were taken on a barge up the Kentucky river as far as lock No. 1, about ten miles above Tyrone.

The process of going thru the lock was a very interesting one. Very abundant refreshments were served on the boat for dinner and supper.

The foliage along the banks was beautifully reflected in the stream, which was unusually clear on account of a lack of rain.

The officers of the Association for the ensuing year are:

President, Miss Florence Dillard of Lexington.

First Vice-President, Mrs. A. M. Spears of Covington

Second Vice-President, Miss Julia Hopkins of Paducah.

Secretary, Miss Carrie Hunt of Lexington.

Treasurer, Miss Hubbuch, of Louisville.
