THINK ABOUT IT! | By BOBJUSTEN In the building boom of office buildings, banks,' ball parks, stadiums, and civic buildings seen almost every­ where, a certain taken-for-granted type of building receives comparatively little prominence. Yet, this type of building does more than any of the others to strenghthen the foundations of our culture. Dwight D. Eisenhower gives tribute to these build­ ings in these words: "History Records how the living ideas of civilization were saved and nourished behind a wall of books. Our libraries today serve the same QtUse, tor the defenders of freedom must remain strong in mind and heart. From the famous metro­ politan libraries of America to the modest bookmo­ biles that serve our rural areas, books guard the wis­ dom of the past and kindle the ideas of tomorrow." Would it not be a good idea for more of us to make a visit to the place where history comes to life amidst the birth of new ideas - and express a sincere "Thank you" to the dedicated librarians who help make it possible?....GEORGE R.

SET FLOOD RELIEF DEADLINE (Continued from page 1) property, and of up to $55,000 for a. combination of real and Dersonal property. Disaster business loans are limited to $500,000, he added. Dwyer said a law, signed by President Nixon Aug. 16, directs the SBA to forgive, or suspend, payments of up to a maximum of $5,000 in all disaster loans. The new legislation also sets an interest rate of 1 percent in connection with disaster loans, Dwyer added. Dwyer said SBA will accept disaster loan applications for processing without a con­ tractor's estimate. He added, however, that the burden of proof of loss remains with the borrower. According to Dwyer, the borrower must present a bona fide estimate of loss following which a verification of loss will be made by SBA before final action is taken on the ap­ plication. Dwyer said the August legislation also permits SBA to refinance existing home mortgages, where substantial damage has been sustained, so long as the borrower's monthly payment is not reduced. The law also authorizes SBA to suspend principal payments for retirees in hardship cases, Dwyer added.

Stores are ex­ tending their shopping hours, of­ fices are throwing parties, the streets are brightly and color­ fully decorated, and everyone is waiting for Christmas and New Year's Eve to arrive. But stop for a moment and think about this! Aren't there some people right in your com­ munity or neighborhood who are depressed or lonely or both dur­ ing this holiday season? Perhaps they have no friends or family to cheer them up and put them in a great holiday mood. That's where you come in. The holiday season is a time for sharing and giving. But not just sharing and giving presents and toys, it should also be a time for giving and sharing your time and love with others who aren't as fortunate or happy. For "Tis the season to be jolly," so make someone in need happy. It's so easy to do. And you don't have to look very far. There are people who need you and they may live only a door or two down the block. Stop in spread some holiday cheer!

"If you'd lose a troublesome visitor, lend him money." (Benjamin Franklin) Pull instead of Push Last year over 3 million people bought front- wheel drive cars. They had some very good reasons. For one, when the drive wheels are up front under the engine you are pulled, not pushed, through curves. And since the drive wheels are under the engine you gain added traction. But there is something else you should know about FWD cars. Renault produces more of them than anyone else in the world - over 5,000 a day, over one million a year. Our latest FWD car to come to America is the Renault 12. It's a superb machine. With rack and pinion steering. Disc brakes up front. And four speed synchromesh transmission. So test drive one soon. You'll discover why FWD cars are becoming so popular. And why Renault is the most popular of them all. wait til you see... ALL NEW! REALLY NEW!
