Library Displays Christmas Mobiles
The Christmas mobiles
made by the school children
are now in and they are
delightful! Bright, colorful
and cheerful, they truly
symbolize what Christmas
is all about. We received
fewer mobiles this year
but they are all excellent.
So much so that we had
trouble judging them.
The outstanding mobiles
were made by Naomi
Obara, 12th grade; Mrs.
Wilkins 6th grade at Swain;
Pat Stemecker’s Reading
Lab at John A. Holmes; and
Vivian Taft’s 4th grade art
class at Swain. They were
all winners we decided so
gifts are ready for everyone.
Thank you for all your help.
In case you’re wondering,
the gifts were paid for from
money collected from the
overdue books.
Story Time December 21
will include someting
special for our kids so don’t
forget.
The adult film will be
shown on December 20 since
the Library will be closed
December 23-25. We’ll be
open again on December 27
at 9:30 A. M.
