MILFORD Library Notes By Mrs. Dorothea Kerlin We continue to receive cards from faraway places. Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Brown are on an Alaskan tour and mailed their card from Haines, Alaska. Linda Om and Sue Moneyheffer remembered us with a card when they were in Hickory, N. C. ♦ * ♦ Mr; and Mrs. W. E. Gilbert of Princeton, N. J., who have for many years donated funds for book purchases to the Milford public library, are now moving to Florida. They have sent us a number of good books from their personal library, which we hope to have on the shelves in the near future. ♦ ♦ ♦ The children’s department is receiving beautiful new books which should delight young and old. One new sef of twelve books, “Animal World in Color”, ready for circulation, is beautifully illustrated, and should prove to be a very valuable reference set. Many new borrowers have been registered in all departments. Do you have a library card? « « * A beautiful, informative book for adults is “The Civil War” by Robert Paul Jordan, published by the National Geographic Society. We have received within the past week a number of new books that will interest those who like light romances, westerns, and nurse stories. ♦ * * Did you know that children who are library users seldom become drop-outs? Now that school has started again, help your child to get the library habit. And by the way, a library habit for adults isn’t a bad idea either. Don’t treat the library, or its books, like a fire engine, to be used only in emergencies. Think of it rather, as a vast reservoir, waiting for you to turn on the faucet. The material is there, all you have to do is to turn on the faucet. Citizen participation, whether as library board members, the reading public, teachers or students, is important, in fact essential, to the development, growth and support of good library service. Citizens are the consumers, the library boards are the middlemen, and the librarians are the dispensers or salesmen. How much support have you given your public library? INSTALLATION AND OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY AT BETHEL CHURCH, MILFORD Installation services will be held Sunday morning at 10:30 at the Milford Bethel Church of the Brethren for the new pastor, Rev. Chester Bahn. 5 The morning worship service and also installation service will be in charge of Rev. George Phillips of the West Goshen church. Open house will be held in the afternoon from 2 to 4 to meet and welcome Rev. and Mrs. Bahn and family. Refreshments will be served. The public is invited to call.
