UBC Hall Display: Features books for young girls from the 1950's.  Highlighting the display are 5 "collectible" books [owned by G Zilm] from the Cherry Ames series. The original books were intended to encourage women to enter nursing during the nursing shortages during and after WW11  They were such a hit that readers requested sequel after sequel.
