Special Events
Scheduled Sunday.
St John's Church
Sunday, August 29, will be
observed at St. John's Metho-
dist Church in Rockdale as
Christian Education Sunday,
the Rev. Frank Cady, pastor,
has announced. Special recog-
nition will also be given to all
officers and teachers of the
church school.
"This will also be promotion
day for the Children's division
of the church school,” he said.
All families are urged to at-
tend Sunday school and wor-
ship services together, it was
explained.
New at the Lucy Hill Patter-
son Memorial Library is
"Making of the President: 19g4”
his brilliant journalist's
eya to a presidential campaign
Perhaps never again will any
candidate for the presidency
win so great a majority from
the American people as did
Lyndon Bator* Johnson in
fVM. Why and how this came
about and wtyd parts were
player by John F Kennedy's
vision, Barry Gold water's in-
dignation and Lyndon John-
son’s capacities make up the
story of a year in which Ameri-
can politics offered one of its
most spectaoular dramas
“The Looking Glass War” is
a new novel of international in-
trigue by John Le Carre, auth-
or of “The Spy Who Came In
From the Cold. ’ This one
centers around an operation to
investigate the presence of a
nuclear missile in East Ger-
many. This ip another chill-
ing and hypnotic tale of the
cloak and dagger game as it
is played by experts on both
sides of the Iron Curtain.
Entry sheets for the Texas
Reading Club must be com-
plete by August 31.
Library hours are 3 to 5
weekday afternoons, 9 to 13
Friday and Saturday mornings
and 7 to 9 Monday evenings.
