The purpose of such groups is primarily to foster closer relations between the library and the citizens. This can be achieved' in various ways by promoting knowl edge of the functions, re sources, services and needs of the library; by helping in the development of a program for the extension and improve ment of the library services and resources, and by aiding in the provision of facilities for the library. Much can be accomplished by cooperative effort and we are counting on you.

Ibis renewal can be granted if the call is made on or prior to the due-date and if no one is waiting for the book, maga zine or record. But not all our patrbns understand that it is not sufficient to simply call the library, identify themselves and say “Please renew my books.” The cir culation cards are filed by author’s name for fiction and by call number plus author’s name for' non-fiction. Every one’s time can be saved if the caller has the books in front of him when he calls so that they can be correctly iden tified by the librarian. We are happy to provide this service, but we do solicit your cooperation. HOOTS More Story Hours Planned— The response to the twice monthly story hours has been very gratifying with a large group in attendance, even in cluding a dog one day. As an added attraction, movies are being shown. And if the re cent response continues, they may become a weekly event, Watch for further announce ments. "WHY? PAY RENT'' OWN YOUR HOME!

C. M. Evans, a member of the Senior Citizens Council, gave an informative repoort on the meeting held in Sep- Pa la table Food For the Hungry Proves Popular Food companies and gov ernment agencies have found that some of the new foods designed to alleviate hunger and malnutrition are not eaten by those who need them! according to General Foods News. Most of the foods devel oped to help solve world hun ger problems have been in an unfamiliar form (usually flour or meal to be baked with or mixed into other foods),! and often they have an uuJ familiar taste. Poor people who know little about nutri tion prefer to spend their meager food money on extra potatoes rather than for what seems a small quantity of high-protein food. And fi nally, most of these products have carried the stigma of being “poor people’s food.” Even the terribly poor man says, “I’m not so poor I have to feed my family that!” GF came up with an an l answer. To a large percentage of the hungry and mal-nour ished throughout the world, this new food looks like an old friend. The food is pasta —elbow macaroni. It looks, cooks and tastes much like regular pasta. It’s hard to tell from “regular” macaroni. Results of the feeding tests in Brazil, showed that in al most every instance, the high protein GF product, eaten daily, eliminated most signs of malnutrition in 90 days. With most people tested, it has already proved to be more than just nutrition in a pack age. This nutritious food does get eaten.

Mrs. Sadie Hoskins, chair man o t Board of Elections, told the Commissioners that the law provides for a modi fied full, time registration Monday, Wednesday and Fri day from 9 o’clock until 1 o’clock.
