The only cost involved will be for whatever materials are needed for each session. There is no charge for the classes because Mrs. Sveen has volunteeered her services for this library project. The classes will focus on many different types of crafts growing so in popularity today, and will specialize in ideas for Christmas gifts as well..

Those able to volunteer such a service should contact Mrs. June Stuart at 385-0036. There will be sign-up sheets at the check-out desk regarding the various classes.

The library is open Mondays through Saturdays, week days from 1 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m.' to 5 p.m. Community | Calendar | Consumers Beware Illinois Attorney General William J. Scott recently warned consumers that unless they specify their desire for a spare tire when purchasing a new automobile, they may find their car equipped with a "space saver" emergency tire. Scott said the space saver is strictly for emergencies and cannot be safely driven for more than 100 miles. When installed, the tire is not in­ flated. In an emergency the motorist uses an' inflating apparatus on the tire.
