Description:Excerpt from Anniversaries and Holidays: References and Suggestions for Picture Bukketins The educational and ethical value of the observance of festivals and anniversaries is an accepted fact. By this means we recall the lives of great men and women, heroic deeds, great and moving events. To the child it may mean the awakening of patriotism, of reverence for heroic qualities, and the development of the historic sense. State governments have recognized this value by setting aside certain anniversaries and festivals for observance, until they have become known as national holidays. The public schools do their part in celebrating these with fitting exercises. The public library has a twofold duty in this connection: first, to aid and supplement the observance in the schools; second, to avail itself of the opportunity to call attention to good books and interesting subjects for reading and study too often overlooked. Pictures, bulletins, reading lists, and book displays are the means which may be employed to this end. Anniversaries and festivals may be divided into two groups: first, the more important ones which are most generally observed, such as Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Washington's birthday, etc. It is rarely necessary to direct attention to these, and the problem of the librarian becomes that of making limited material fill an almost unlimited demand for recitations, plays, pictures, and programs.
