music of the church.
Library News
BUSY. BUSY, BUSY
Busy, busy busy; is what we have
been since Christmas. We have had
three people out for some time and
one in China, but one by one they
have trickled back in.
Paul Fu was in China through
Thanksgiving and Christmas and
returned January 14 to work.
Debra Baker has been out on
maternity leave and returned Mon
day. Debbie has a little girl.
Nancy Morgan has been in the
hospital and out for a while and is
back. Nancy worked on the book
mobile with Letitia Conoly and.
without her, we had to cancel
Bookmobile services for a few
times.
Mrs. Cameron was out with her
broken hip and shoulder from
December 18 to February 1 and is
back full time now.
VVe missed all these folks sorely
and it is good to have them back.
We two librarians and two
students in the afternoon from
school hope we have kept you in the
library material you have needed.
We tried to keep the "show on the
road" so you. our special patrons,
would still have the same uninter
rupted services. If you at some time
came in and saw a librarian
running.it was to catch the phone,
help with school references, to help
you. etc. It is so good not to have
had any problems during this time.
Willie Dimps had extra hous?;
hold duties to perform, and he did
it very pleasantly and willingly.
And when you see Danny or
Michael Roberts who are students
working with us be sure and tell
them how much they are appre
ciated in the library. We could not
have made it without them.
BLACK HISTORY MONTH
Along with many different school
reports that are keeping the young
sters and us busy; now many ot
them are looking for matenal
pertaining to ' BLACK HIS
TORY." .. .
Our material is very limited so we
are having to do "first come, first
served" and hope those who cam?
f.rsi will bring their material back
early.
AMHRICAN HEART ASSOCIA
TION MONTH
On displav in the library you will
find a display of material dealing
with many phases ot heart attack
and stroke and many ways to help
detect the possibility ot and to ward
off heart attach or a stroke. The
material is very limited, so Pleas<j
plan to read what you need and
leave it for someone else. Sorry we
can't get more material for every
one.
OLD BOOKS . ,
Old books are still being sold at
the library. There are some still left
if you want to look tor a special
auihor. All we plan to sell for a
while have been put out. So if you
want to see what is here hurry on
down to the library today.
STORY HOUR
Story hours have still not been
started back out in the county
kindergartens, but the regular ones
in the library are still going on. We
missed having some of the private
kindergartens during the cold bit
ter weather.
I'm sure the kids and teachers
are glad to have Mrs. Cameron
back. This person had a fun time
singing and reading and showing
films to the little folks, but some of
our story book characters had to go
on vacation while Mrs. Cameron
was away. Seems there is going to
have to be some learning in hand
puppets and flannel board activity
in case Mrs. Cameron is gone
again.
It's disappointing to the little
ones not to have their favorite
programs and characters like
Winky the bear, etc.
A great big THANKS to Mary
Ann Baker and Allison Mark for
their help with the Mother's Story
Hour. They were both so good to do
this for us several times. Hoke
County is so fortunate to have a
good community spirit when there
is a need, and these two ladies have
proven this, above and beyond the
call of duty.
NO MORE COPIES
Until further notice there will be
no further copies made for the
public. Only in the library use, or
school work in the library, etc. will
be copied; due to lack of funds for
copy paper.
If there is a change we will let you
know. This is.alniiost a free service
at only 10 cents a copy and our
supply money is not enough to
cover this item.
LATE WISHES
We of the Hoke County Library
Staff want to wish Sam Morris all
the best in his retirement. It is one
well earned. Sam, you've been so
good to us thro' the years and we
did want you to know how much we
care. So now, hit that ball, catch
that fish, sail that boat, take that
tour, climb that mountain, or what
ever your heart desires. We know
you deserve it. Happy retirement.

Rural Heart Week Starts Sunday
The week of February 14 has
been designated Rural Heart
Week, according to Miss Emma
Mims. fundraising chairman of the
Hoke County Heart Association.
"Our goal is to reach every home
in our rural areas to leave educa
tional material and to receive
donations to the 1982 Heart
Fund," she said.
"Because of the distance that
many people outside of town must
travel to get to a hospital, it is
important that they know the
warning signs of a possible heart
attack and act immediately to help
the victim," Miss Mims continued.
"This means calling an emergency
squad for transportation or driving
the person to the hospital." She
listed the following signs of heart
attack:
?Prolonged heavy pressure or
squeezing pain in the center of the
chest behind the breastbone.
--Pain spreading to the shoulder,
arm, neck, or jaw.
?Pain or discomfort followed by
sweating, nausea, vomiting, or
shortness of breath.
"These symptoms may subside
and then return, but don't wait.
Gel the person to a hospital
emergency room at once." she said.
Public education on heart at
tack, stroke, high blood pressure,
and other forms of heart disease is
one of the programs supported by
the Heart Fund, Miss Mims
pointed out . Other programs cover
research, professional education
and training, and community ser
vice. All Heart Fund contributions
are tax-deductible.
Community workers for Hoke
County include Mrs. Gover Mc
Millan. Jessie Dupree. Joyce Grif
fin. Kathy Hendrix, Bonnie Love,
Charlotte Kelly, andl Elma Page.
