O
FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY
OFFER THANKS
The friends of the Library wish
to thank everyone who helped
make our Arts and Crafts Show a
huge success. We especially thank
Mr. Boyd Turner for staying
overnight in the auditorium and
guarding the many valuable items
which were on display.
The exhibit did a fine job of
showing their many lovely
interesting items. Without their
cooperation there would not have
been any show.
And our thanks to the public
which attended our show and
made our efforts worthwhile.
Their generous contributions will
enable the Library to do things
which have had to wait until
money could be found to do
them.
» The Drama Club also played1 an
important role in making a success
of the venture. They helped clean
the building before the show was
set up. Their efforts are greatly
appreciated.
Thanks again for all your fine
cooperation.
The Friends of the Library,
Judy Pue, Show Chairman

We arc sorry to report that Rev.
B. L. Mattingly is in the Veterans
Hospital in Temple, Texas. We
hope he will be fully recovered
soon and be back with his church.
We were happy to have as guest
speaker at the Lakehills Methodist
Church on Sunday, Mr. Moore of
Kerrville. Mr. Moore will fill in
again next Sunday in the absence
of Rev. Mattingly.
SAN ANTONIO,
TEXAS-Picasso has been invited
to create “his smallest painting for
the largest art exhibit in Texas.”
The invitation came from Mrs.
Jack Harmon, general chairman of
the Art League Jamboree to be
held here September 20-21.
In her letter to the famed artist,
Mrs. Harmon said, “This may
seem presumptuous but we know
you above all others will
understand a gesture as only
Picasso could make.”
The Jamboree already has
prizes donated by famed artists
Jose Vives-Atsara; Warren Hunter;
Dr. Amy Freeman Lee; Don
Morris; Elizabeth Ridenhower;
and Caroline Shelton.
The raffle committee is headed
by Mrs. Henry J. Korp. Mrs.
Charles Grace is her co:chairman.
They all are anxiously awaiting
a reply from the master but are
confident they have substantial
collection already.
Over 10,000 people are
expected to attend the event on
the Kenneth T. Anderson estate.
The Park Road 37 Baptist
Church held their Vacation Bible
School last week. About 40
children were enrolled in Bible
School. Commencement was held
on Saturday night. Parents saw
the many handcrafts and Bible-
work done by their children
during the week.
The Park Road 37 Baptist
Church held their revival last week
with Rev. Richard Mayberry as
guest speaker. The revival was Well
attended each night and a blessing
was received by everyone who
attended. After the Saturday
night services an ice cream social
was given the young people by the
adults. A good fellowship was had
by all. _
The Bob Markolfs drove their
grandson?to the Aquarena at San
MarcOs during the past week. The
boys, though having traveled a
great deal, had not seen this type
of entertainment. They also drove
to the Amistad Dam near Del Rio
and found that water is coming
into the lake rapidly and it will be
quite an area in the next couple of
years. On the way back they took
in the Alamo Village above
Bracketville, which the boys
enjoyed very much. Happy
Shahan makes all feel more than
welcome, is truly a genial host.
The “Shoot Out” show was very
well done and the young fellow
who played guitar, drums and
sang in the Cantina has quite a lot
of talent. Parts or all of eleven
movies have been staged at Alamo
Village and another is to be madt
in September which will be done
specially for television. They say
that Labor Day is quite an event
out there with all sorts of
attractions. It is hoped this Village
will be maintained and made more
realistic in the years to come, and
with Happy Shahan as “boss” that
should be almost a certainty. This
too was something entirely new to
the boys and they will have Texas
things to talk about back in
Connecticut.

Harley and Estelle Odom and

returned home after a most
interesting trip through the
Ozarks. Points of interest were in
Fayetteville seeing the well known
University and Museum of
Arkansas and Razorback Stadium.
In Rogers, Beanor Reservoir,
Daisy Air Rifle Plant, which has
the largest non-powder gun
collection. Berryville is the center
of a large turkey and chicken
producing area, Saunders

largest privately owned gun
collections and apple orchards.
Paris, the gateway to the Magazine
Mountains,, with the highest
elevation of the state; Eureka

seeing the unusual attractions of
Quigley Castle, St. Elizabeth
Church, which you enter through
the belltowcr, situated on a
mountain top. The giant statue of
the Christ of the Ozarks, seven
stories tall, armspread of 65 feet,
atop Magnetic Mountain. Most
inspiring was seeing the Great
Passion Play p'ortraying the life of
Christ from Palm Sunday through
the last week of His life. A cast of
over 150 performers on a 400
foot stage with live animals and a
wardrobe of 425 garments true to
the tradition of Christs’ time is
something one will always
remember.
While in Dogpatch a very
pleasant visit was spent with Mr.
