LIBRARYNEWS By the Librarian The Summer Reading Project—"My Rocket to Adventure” will begin next Mon.. On JJunel, there were 525 children enrolled as follows: Ist and 2nd grades have 165; 3r dand 4th grades have 154: Sth and 6th grades have 118; 7th, Sth & H.S. have 88. We are happy about the number from the 7th and Bth for we realize that when children reach this age they have many other activities and outside work. However, it is by constant heading that one keeps alert to all that is happening in the world and the books for boys and girls In these higher grades are very excellent. All the children who have enrolled /rave their names on the earth posters which hang in the hall. They will put dots after their names for the first five books. Then they will be given a card rocket which will take them to the planet Mars. For the next five books they w ll also put dots after their names, when they have completed these next five books they move their rocket on to Jupiter After that every ten books will move their rocket to another planet. The various boards showing the sun and the planets in their orbits are very colorful, a good job of designing and painting <as done by our two hibh school girls —Sara Brunnegraff and Ellen Welch. We hope the parents will be interested in seeing these posters and watching the progress of the summer reading. Come in some afternoon and just watch the interest of the children as they pick but their books. You will realize that reading is fun. Do not forget Monday, June 4, everyone who has enrolled will begin reading. Everyone who reads ten books will receive a diploma. The rural school that has the most diplomas will receive a pennant, and the grade in each otwn school that has the most diplomas will receive the pennant.

A nephew, John T. Jones, said his uncle passed away ‘Wary quietly.” * 4 President Roosevelt once describled Jones as “the only man in Washington who can, and does, say ‘yes’ and ‘no’ intelligently 24 hours a day.” Jones never got beyond grammar school, although in later life a dozen colleges and ‘ universities gave him honorary degrees. Funeral arrangements were being made today. His survivors Included his widow, the former Mary Gibbs of Mexia, Texas, whom he married in 1926. They had no children. Physicians blamed death on ilremic poisoning. Jones underwent an operation March 28 for a kidney blockage, but was released from St. Luke's hospital April 10, apparently cured. He left his apartment atop Houston’s Lamar Hotel May 9 to return to the hospital, where bis condition steadily grew worse He was under an oxygen tent most of Friday and died Friday night. Jones was something of an anomaly among Texas mlliionaries, in that he made none of his vast fortune from oil. , . Eventually, in 1945, he gained controlling interest in the National Bank of Commerce, one of the largest in the South. In 1926 he became owner and publisher of the Houston Chronicle, which owns a radio station and has a large interest in a television station. —— —- — --- He was first called to Washington during World War I, when President Wilson made him director of miilitary Relief. In 1932 President Hoover made him head of -the Reconstruction Finance Corp. President Roosevelt continued Jones in that office and later appointed him secretary of commerce.
