WANTED: ALL OVERDUE BOOKS, PLEASE!
Volunteers: Anyone eighteen years or older interested in volunteer
work in the library this summer and on other days during the year,
is invited to come by and sign up for a workshop I will be having in
the library on Saturday, March 21 (snow/ice date: March 28) from
10:30 to 11:30 a.m.
NEW BOOKS: "Hollywood Husbands," Collins' "Silversword,"

ner Party," Fast; "High Hearts," Brown; "I Touch the Future"
(biography of astronaut Christa McAuliffe); "Eyes of the Dragon,"
Stephen King; and "The Fatal Shore," Hughes, a wonderful history
of a continent fast becoming a tourist haven. There are also several

You will never know what your library has to offer if you don't take
the time to pay us a visit. We have the ability to offer you a variety
of services. In addition, you may check on what is going on in our
state museums. We receive brochures telling of programs offered,
etc.
We have several books on general games, plus books on specific
games, such as bridge, chess and backgammon. These are wonder
ful games to learn at home and to while away long winter nights.
Through the foreign language department of State Library, we can
order records of cassettes, with books, so you can learn conversa
tion in a foreign language. We have books here to give you some help
in learning German, French, Spanish and Latin. In the Children's
Room are two Richard Scarry books and one Walt Disney that will
give you a smattering of French and German. I saw them in Ger
many in June, 1985, and found a store in Georgia that carried them.
They are really meant for German children to use to learn English,
but they would be of some interest here as well.

14 from 10 a.m. until 12 noon.
REMINDERS: We have some federal 1986 tax forms. We also have
the applications for Federal Student Aid for 1987-88.

World Day Of Prayer
Plans Are Announced
World Day of Prayer
celebrates its centennial on Fri
day, March 6, proclaiming the
theme, "Come and Rejoice." A
100-year-old movement of global
dimensions, the World Day of
Prayer is a worldwide expression
of mutual prayer and Christian
unity.
The uniqueness of the obser
vance lies in the fact that its ex
pression is found in local com
munities and its leadership in
laywomen of the church. World
Day of Prayer, begun in the
United States in 1887 as a day of
prayer for mission, has
developed into a movement in
which Christians in some 170
countries and regions of the
world gather each year to
observe a common day of prayer.
The same theme and worship ser
vice is shared and translated in
to hundreds of languages and
dialects.
Local interdenominational and
inter-racial prayer services will
be held at the Warrenton
Presbyterian Church on North
Main Street at 11:30 a.m. Wor
ship will be led by laywomen and
pastors of Warrenton churches.
All women and men of Warrenton
are invited and encouraged to
participate.
An offering will be taken for
Church Women United, the of
ficial U.S. sponsor of World Day
of Prayer. Church Women United
is the ecumenical movement that
brings Protestant, Roman
Catholic and Orthodox women
together into one Christian com
munity of prayer, advocacy and
service. During worship, a
nursery will be provided.
Following worship, a soup and
sandwich lunch will be served in
the church fellowship hall.
For further information, con
tact the Rev. Nancy Rowland
McCann at 257-1462.
