Thursday, Much 4,1976 Hoots & Screeches . . HOOTS 0 CONTAGIOUS ENTHU pSFASM T h i s has sMita an exciting week for thanks to several v-Vtt.c ount e r # with enthusiastic people and groups. I felt like a , ven table Cinderella when I attended the glamorous , Beaux Arts Ball in Raleigh along with 349 other patrons f of', the North Carolina ' Museum of Art. The specific : object of our enthusiasm was the purchase of ri the impressionistic painting : MORNING MISTS by Monet and the ballroom at the i: North Ridge Country Club .was decorated with the -'subtle colors found in the painting. The “morning ’ after” party held by the % chairman of the ball : committee at their ' beautifully landscaped k ~ home was also a delight to the eyes with flowers blooming everywhere, :• indoors and out. Flowers are one of the enthusiasms of the State Library Consultant on ' Children’s Services so I had -no trouble entertaining Diana Young on her visit this week. First we visited in Edenton and took a walk in ( the new Cupola House garden adjacent to the Shepard-Pruden Library. A pleasant evening was spent ■ in the home of the Chowan - Cqunty Librarian, Louise Darby, with her family plus Mary Eileen Bieler, the Children’s Coordinator for the Pettigrew Regional , Library and Vicki Chappell who works with children at the Shepard-Pruden - Memorial Library (among her other duties). We are all equally proud of Vicki for ' the fine grades she is making in her college ■ classes and share her enthusiasm in continuing her education. The quarterly meeting of Children’s Librarians from the 25 eastern counties was a geniuine sharing of enthusiasm.

They are so dedicated to the premise that acquiring a love for books is best done early in life (a theory that I believe wholeheartedly) that all their efforts are bent toward sharing that idea. Diana Young . combines the bubbling personality with a wealth of information and a great deal of valuable experience which inspires everyone she meets. A look at a fabulous collection of African violets and other potted plants was the last thing on Diana’s agenda for this visit. I took her with me to Columbia, the home of the Bookmobile Librarian for the Pettigrew Regional Library, Pearl Furlough. Among her many talents, Pearl has away with plants and she delights in sharing the pleasures of her greenhouse with her friends. A vase of blue flowers is the subject of a painting which hangs behind my desk and everyone who visits me admires it. Part of my pleasure comes from explaining that it is the work of a very talented local artist, Gene Harris. And the picture is not his only contribution to the library: he is the author of a children’s book SMOKE ON OLD THUNDERHEAD. We share his pride in the recent announcement from the publisher, John F. Blair, that the book was chosen for translation into Braille for young sightless readers. SCREECHES ABOUT OWLS—One of my long-time enthusiasms is the collecting of owls in every possible form and it has led to several new friendships. Over a year ago, I met another owl collector who lives in New York and owns a restaurant called The Owl’s Nest. Naturally, I invited him to see my collection and was delighted when he showed up on a beautiful day so we could indulge another mutual hobby;. game of golf. My collection grew with the addition of an Owl belt buckle - just what I needed for my new blue jeans. Another of Vincent Giacci’s interests, the building of log houses, brings him to North Carolina so often that he maintains a car with North Carolina registration. He was a bit miffed that I beat him to the personalized tag OWL - there can only be one and I asked for it first.
