Train Of Thought News Of Norlina Public Library By LILLIAN KILIAN The holiday season approaches and we again look forward to leisure time (especially do the students) when we have an opportunity to read, just for the joy of reading. We, at Norlina Library, feel we have something that will interest everyone. As you notice that books on the shelves are arranged by topics, you will see the story of mankind unfolding. It goes like this: In the beginning people began to reason who was responsible for their being here. These are the books on philoso phy. They assured them selves that their pres ence on earth was due to a Supreme Being, so they worshipped (reli gion). They realized they must learn to live to gether (social sciences). The necessity for or ganization accentuated the need for communi cation (languages). There were animals, flowers, rocks, constel lations and stars (sci ences). Inventions and machinery were em ployed for farming, home and manufactur ing (useful arts?ap plied sciences). Their finer sensibili ties were expressed in painting, sculpture, music, etc. (fine arts). They began to express themselves in writing, making poems of their feelings, writing stories (literature). As it became possible to visit from land to land, they began to tell of life and history of other lands, as well as their own land. Also, stories of individual lives and deaths were told (history). Birth Mr. and Mrs. John Freddie Perkinson of High Point announce the birth of a son, John Frederick, on Nov. 20 at Moses Cone Hospital in Greensboro. The infant weighed seven pounds, eight ounces. Mrs. Perkinson is the former Miss Diane Dickerson of Hender son. The paternal grand parents are Mrs. Ann P. Norvell of Norlina and the late Jack Perkin son. The maternal grand parents are Albert F. Dickerson of Henderson and the late Gladys Dickerson. A nice assortment of books has been donated by Miss Sadie Yancey and Don Perkinson. The retiring Junior Women's Club donated a number of Tiny Tots' books in the "Sweet Pickel" series. Besides these books, two lovely books were presented as memorials. Mr. and Mrs. Leigh Traylor pre sented in memory of Mrs. Maggie Adcock, "The World's Favorite Roses and How to Grow Them." Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Taylor presented, in memory of Mrs. Lisa Steverson, "The Patch work Pattern Book." The trustees thank all of these donors. Computers Many typical schoolchil dren are not enamored of computers and think their peers who like computers are "nerds." In fact, a surprising num ber of children who have learned to use computers at school do not really under stand how computers work, say education researchers at the University of Cali fornia, Berkeley. Further, the children do not choose to work with com puters in their free time and have no plans to use comput ers when they grow up. "The supposed revolution of kids and computers has not happened."
