The trio sang "Let Library We have the "best of the best" in our Scugog Memorial Public Library which opened it doors to the public, I believe in June 1982. It has many, many fea- tures to make life more mean- ingful for the residents of Scu- gog, young and old alike! Let us take advantage of this excellent facility which serves the whole township so well. One of the greatest gifts is the passion of reading good books. It is cheap, it consoles, it ex- cites, it distracts, it gives you knowledge of the world and ex- perience of a wider kind. It is a moral illumination! Priceless and precious are the blessings which books scatter around our daily paths. We walk in imagi- nation and understanding. Reading lasts a lifetime and is ever useful in work and play. Trust mothers everwhere had a happy memorable day on Sun- day, and were rewarded with visits from the family. If far away, a phone call. A day of pleasure. Someone has said, "The road is never long when you are on the way to your mothers. Yes! mothers are spe- cial people, and Mother's Day has been celebrated every sec- ond Sunday in May since 1914.
