se a SRE Te a RS Animals At The Library When Teresa Jackson talked about having a petting zoo for the children this summer, I had visions of cows and horses meandering through the library on a one day outing to acquire a little culture and education. what she had in mind, however, was a small collection of farm animals in the back parking lot for the children to pet and observe. It sounds like a good idea. However, we need help to get such a zoo together, as we do not have access to a variety of animals ourselves. Anyone who lives on a farm or in the country and would like to participate in setting up a petting zoo one day during the summer programs, please call the library and tell us what kinds of animals you have to contribute. The days of the family farm are over, and as our so- ciety has shifted from an agrarian culture to an urban culture, much of the knowledge previously assimilated by children in the course of growing up is no longer common place. Small children are used to getting their eggs in a styrofoam box and their milk in a plastic jug at the super market, and it is not easy for them to relate these foods to hens and cows. Although children are usually familiar with pictures and stories about ani- mals, they have had no direct experience with them, and the warm relationships between child and farm pet are no longer possible. We have in the past brought animals to visit the li- brary on an individual basis, and the children always enjoyed seeing them and learning about them. We've had turtles and chickens and goats, but we would like to have some other animals as well, such as rabbits, geese, ducks, etc. If you would be interested in assisting with the pro- gram, call Teresa Jackson at 739-2371. We also have some books on farm animals which children would enjoy.

How would you feel being able to make only one telephone call a month and maybe you'd get an occasional letter|and you might lose more privileges than you can count on both hands. Most of all you'd lose your freedom, " he said. "Don't become a victim to drugs. Drugs cause seri- ous crimes. I'm not mad at myself. I was stupid. I don't recommend prison but I will say that prison conditions are a lot better today," said J. R.
