Librarians Talk
On Child Stories
ShouM stories which end "and they
wore married and lived happy ever after"
be told small children? This question was
the subject of a lively discussion at
Thursday afternoon's session of the Ne
braska Library association meeting at
the Public library.
MIks Edna Lyman of Oak Park. III., a
story teller and lecturer on library work
for children, had just finished telling the
grownups In session a story about a
fairy princess which ended "and they
were married and lived happy ever after,"
when Miss Jennie ltedfleld, principal of
Castellar school and president of the
Omaha Story Tellers' league, raised the
question nf the suitability of that sort
of an ending for children's stories.
Miss Lyman held that the happy end
ing need have ho emotional meaning
whatever to a small child, that It Is In
keeping with his Idea of home life and
that It cannot be left out unless one
erase the slats of life.
Miss Hedflold spoke on "Story-Telling
From the Schools' Viewpoint." Mrs. C. W.
Axlell, vice president of the Story Tell
ers' league, spoke on "The Mother as the
Btory-Teller."
