MEETINGS So many folks are using the library for meetings we're almost running out of space. Folks are meeting in most every corner where they can find space. When it gets to be more than four a night; I guess some will have to meet somewhere else. So far, there are Sandhill College classes of Sewing, Great Decisions, Income tax, and the Tax Clinic is over. Also, Laubach, Girl Scouts, Retired Teachers, Teachers Workshop, Swimming Pool Assoc., Parent volunteer groups. U.D.C.. etc. UN-NEEDED PROBLEMS You mothers who are leaving youngsters at the library while you go shopping or if you are still at work when they get out of school, or maybe you have a tennis game, etc., or, your children just be coming by instead of coming home: This has become a PROBLEM for us here at the library. Your child is unruly especially when he gets with others who are coming by. There are so many folks trying to do school research and other library needs and when there are loud youngsters running, spilling drinks, eating candy, etc. it be comes pretty hazardous and an noying. Now. I'm sure it its your child, he or she does no such thing so why would we have this problem. We can assure you it does exist. Candy papers and chewing gum get thrown into the books, magazines, and papers. We do have a NO DRINK and NO FOOD sign posted but these seem to be disregarded. Again, you are probably won dering why we don't stop this or call you if your child does this. We are wondering why you allow your child to come to the library to wait if they have no studying to do that involves library services. We are under Tips For Picking Vegetables NUTRITION THOUGHTS Minnie Simmons and Delores Dial Extension Expanding Nutrition Aides Vegetables can always be an exciting part of a meal. They add both eye appeal and appetite appeal. With vegetables available all year long fresh from the garden, frozen or canned, preparing and serving them creatively is fun. There may still be gleanings of greens from the winter's garden, and some early garden's are busy trying to plant vegetable seeds for early spring picking. Produce counters in the stores have quite a variety of all the vegetables for the choosing, but especially pretty dark-green and leafy and the deep-yellow ones. There is always a good supply of frozen and canned ones. The dark green, leafy, and yellow vegetables - spinach, broccoli, col lards. turnip greens, kale, sweet potatoes, carrots - excel as depend able and inexpensive sources of Vitamin A. Most are low in calories. Vitamin A is necessary in the growth and maintenance of tissue which comprises the skin and the covering of internal cavities. It is important in the development of the bones. It plays a part in the maintenance of the outside of the eye, and in the part of the eye that makes it possible for us to see. Careful storage of these will help to maintain color and crispness as well as nutrient content. The vegetable drawer or crisper in the refrigertor is the best place. Or. use air tight containers or freezer bags. Most green' vegetables lose their vitamin content if stored at room temperature. Cooking vegetables softens tough tissue. Keep the bright, fresh color, good tlavor, vitamins and minerals by: using a small amount of water, and not overcooking. Cooking time may be shortened by cutting, slicing, dicing, or shredding vegetables. For young tender vegetables, Vi to 1 cup of water is usually enough for six servings. Use a tight fitting lid. Do not use baking soda. This makes some vegetables mushy, and also causes destruction of the mineral thiamin. **Timo For A Change** A Vote for PETERKIN is a vote for honesty, loyalty, experience and effective law en forcement.

We are librarians and paid for helping with library aids. The county has no money to install a permanent baby sitter. When youngsters are turned loose together they become giggly, loud, and disrespectful of floors, furniture, yard, shrubbery, and are trampling down new tulips that are coming up. These were gifts, and we are sure the giver would like to see them in full bloom. PLEASE do NOT tell your child to wait for you at the library. By the time they've had to be still and quiet all day at school and they get to the library, they're all ready to let loose and we prefer they let loose in their own yard or home. If library work is needed we will be glad to help any person but please respect our request. Your tax money pays for the library and staff and we're sure you want it maintained in the best of manner. Thank you. NEW HELP Dressie Denise Graham, a con tinuing education student under Dwight Jackson, is working with the library and learning all phases of library work.
