So how about giving me a buzz and relaying the news that may be going about. Any birthdays, anniversaries or parties???? Columbus noticed migratory land birds on Oct. 7, 1492, changed his route somewhat to follow their course, and, on Oct. 12, landed at a small island which he named San Salvador. Without this change of course, he likely would have hit Florida, where the natives would have been hostile. Inc.

I have decided in the interest jf. good government and equal law enforcement to support another candidate for this office, H. Eugene Brewer, Harvard chief of police, whom I think has the integrity and vigor to bring about a Republican victory in November. His ideals greatly parallel mine in regard to his youth guidance program and merit system for the sheriff's department. My name will still appear on the ballot, but ?am actively withdrawing to support H. Eugene Brewer. I hope that you will do the same as I April 10 and vote for H. Eugene Brewer. Thank you for your interest.

Mama said Kmily's imagination was always running away with her, something like the way, Emily imagined, a horse had once run away with Mama. Because of her imagination Emily fe^ rotten apples to the hogs, so she wouldn't waste food. The results were disastrous from Emily's point of view, hut they were hilarious to the members of the Ladies' Civic club, and put them in the mood to agree to the library Emily wanted so badly. However, Emily didn't have to imagine all the adventures she had the year she was in fourth grade. They began with a lelter from Cousin Muriel, which first made her think about a library for her town o f P i t c h f o r k . T h e y e n d e d w i t h the opening of a whole new world which might be China, although Emily hoped it wasn't. Emily's real world is an Oregon farm in the early 1920's, but children of today will rec ognize much of themselves in this well intentioned child ant' her funny misadventures. Bevi erly Cleary's unique sense of humor is at its most captivating in this bright and shining story. "THAT SUMMER ON CATALPA STREET," by Louise Pliss and Illustrated by Anthony D'Adamo. M a r t y S t a n t o n w a s t h e meanest boy in town. No one cared enough to find out why until the Prince family moved to Catalpa street. The backyard of the Prince family became a small world in which boys and girls could fulfill their dreams. The old barn, the rock with the mysterious message, and most of all "the-f/ysVem" for telephonic communication-- all led to exciting adventures, and misadventures. First, there was the mysterious "Phantom", then came the great flood; after thai, the night they spent lost in the woods. This is the story of neighborhood children who explored the world around them and helped each other grow in understanding during "That Summer On Catalpa Street". "FIRST MAN TO CROSS AMERICA," The Story of Cabeza de Vaca, by Ronald Syme. In April, 1529, Cabeza de Vaca and his expedition were overtaken by a storm off the coast of Tex&s. He and three other men were the only apparent survivors, and they were stranded on a forlorn and empty shore 600 miles from the closest Spanish settlement. De Vaca, whose ancestors had been soldiers of Spain for 200, years, had come to Florida with Panfilo-Narvaez to^^fifid the legendary gol'den citjy of Cibola. Harried by hostile Indians, they had built boa$s and were fleeing to Tampico. For eight years the four shipwrecked men wandered across the continent,* trying to reach Mexico. Nowhere in their tremendous journey did they see a sign of the mysterious city of Cibola. Finally in March, 1537, they met a group of their fellow countrymen near the Sinaloa river on fhe west coast of Mexico. The experiences of these men did more than anything else to discourage Spanish exploration of North America, and Ronald Syme's account of this little known chapter in early American exploring makes a powerful story. There are about 550 varieties of rodents in the world, but only the mouse and rat are common over all the nonarctic world. All the food used by humans and animals is produced, by greer. plants-- whether we eat the plants ourselves, or feed them to animals first makes no difference. This step in production seems to be the bottleneck in the production of food for the world's rapidly growing population. If man could perfect a method of producing food from Sunlight, air and water, as plants do, one of mankind's big worries would be over. Can it be done??? 100 years ago. man couldn't fly to Europe in a few hours, or send voices and pictures through the air, either. r R e g u l a r c h e c k - u p s a n d maintenance by our experts, means lower car costs for you.
