KILIAN Improvements con tinue so that Norlina Library can now be presented as a deposi tory of well-displayed books for those who borrow books just for the joy of reading. More particularly, we want it to be a comfor table center for students to study, research and develop school projects. The young people are learning to use the index card system, and they can now find the infor mation they need. It is heartening when two or more plan to meet in the library to work on an assigned project because they realize that here they can find the information they need, as well as a quiet place to work. We are fortunate to have this little library in Norlina. We appreciate the kindness of so many: those who give books and those who give of their time. Since our last report, we have received a gift, "And Ladies of the Club...," a book by Helen Howen Saint meyer, as a memorial to Mrs. Nellie Register by her daughter, Mrs. Catherine Rodwell; numerous miscellan eous books, a quantity from Dale Harper, Sharon Paschall, Miss Sadie Yancey and Mrs. Fred (Amanda) Dortch. Mrs. Dortch also presented a 10-volume Compton's encyclopedia (1929 edition). Also, we give thanks to those young people who so graciously help shelve books: Yvette Jones, Dale Harper and Sharon Paschall. They realize there is no money available to pay them, yet they do it just because they want to help. The joy of giving and the joy of helping by the patrons are the reasons we have such a nice, though small, library in Norlina. Miniature Volcanoes Seen At Los Alamos National Laboratory, which lies on the slope of one of the world's large extinct volcanoes, two researchers are creating their own volcanoes. The model volcanoes are powered by a molten mixture of aluminum and iron oxide, which substitutes well for magma, or molten rock. Wa ter, when introduced, com pletes the explosive combi nation. I Either small or large amounts of water will produce parti cles about an inch in diameter, but if the right amount of wa ter — about one-third the amount of the molten mix ture—is introduced, the re sulting blast will produce a glowing dust cloud. Information learned from these studies may help deter mine the origin of some at mospheric particles.
