IVY FROM DICKENS' HOME FEATURES BIRTHDAY DISPLAY

A "Gad's Hill" ivy plant, grown from a slip of the original vine which grew at Charles Dickens' home at Gad's Hill Place, Rochester, England, has been added to the Dickens exhibition in the Treasure Room of Widener Library. This plant was loaned by Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Ridgeway of the Dickens Fellowship of Boston in commemoration of Dickens birthday which is today.

Next week some interesting posters in colors will be added to the exhibition. These will be chiefly posters advertising the dramatizations of Barnaby Rudge.
