LIBRARY NOTES By AIJCE MANN HIRE "High of Heart,”- is the storv of a brilliant young American lawyer who spends his spare time tracking ■down a criminal while he himself is being pursued by a jealous ex-fian-cee. Much of the action takes place in Trentmere Towers, a thirty-thou-sand acre estate in England. This is an Emilie Loring romance. Mrs. M. D. Cohen, of Chicago, who has been a frequent visitor in our library for the last three months quotes the following: “I never realized what a library could mean to a small community until I began visiting your library. In Chicago I only used the library for reference work because they did not offer the splendid selection of books that you have here in your library." During Mrs. Cohen’s visit here she read the following books: “The Importance of Living” “Lin Yutang,” 4 ‘The Rains Came” and “To Have and Not to Have,” Bromfield; “The Wall,” Rinehart; “Rebecca,” Du Maurier; and "The Jalna,” series (6 vol.). The library will be closed Thursday, Thanksgiving day. Barbara Bushong and Kathleen Rarick, sixth grade pupils and Mary Ellen Benson, fourth grade pupil, won the prizes for the “Jumbled Tille” contest which was held during Book Week. Mrs. Edna Hess and her pupils visited the library, Tuesday afternoon. Doris Davis; eighth grade student, read the following books last ween: “Pine Barren’s Mystery,” “Men of Moon Mountain,” “Open Shutt , rs,’ “Hotel Hostess,” “L tlle Am r’“ Girl ’ and “Ellen Drew." There were 576 books ci. cub''' ■»’ last week, which is a d.Rly of 96 books Mr. and Mrs. Alb -rt Garrett O’Millersburg, were guests on Sunday of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Stansbury.
