Presentations made to Austin Library from historical group
The Cleveland Sesquicentennial
Committee in 1986, made a com-
mitment to begin a Texas Heritage
corner for the Charles . Austin
Library. Over $2000 from the fund
raisers were reserved for that
purposes.
On June 4, 1988 immediately
following the unveiling of the city of
Cleveland historical marker, those
participants attended a reception at
the Library as a part of the official
presentation. The group was
welcomed by Library Board
President Ynette Coe.
Cleveland Sesquicentennial
chairman Bonnie Hughes made the
official presentations for the library.
A large display case and rack were
pointed out. Additional funds had
been used to frame a 1935 Advocate
page that told the incorporation of
the town; to frame and display the
city flag, designed by Buelah
Grimmet, and to frame a picture of
Mrs. Bessie Austin who had helped
make the library a reality.
Funds are being used to reproduce
historic pictures of Cleveland,
documents and news articles about
Cleveland. Additional printed
materials and film will be pur-
chased.
Guest speaker, Kevin Ladd of
Wallisville Heritage Park and
member of the Liberty County
Historical Commission stressed the
need of continuous search for and
preservation of our local history.
For several days, Mary Rabun,
Barbara Smith, Ynette Coe, Janie
Graham and Buelah Grimmet had
worked to group and prepare items
for display. Many people had
brought items to be used on loan for
the display. Some were older than
Cleveland itself.
Within the limited space all items
will not be on exhibit at the same
time . Periodically they will be
changed.
Growing out of the Sesquicen-
tennial activities and as part of their
continuing support of the library, the
TFWC Woman’s Club of Cleveland
made a presentation of many books
written by or about Texas Women.
They also presented framed wild
flowers prints typical of Texas.
The beginning of the Texas
Heritage Corner is a suc-
cess.;.But... there is a wealth of local
history in pictures, documents,
artifacts and memories that need to
be shared and preserved. Items can
always belong to you, please let
them be on loan for use by the
library.
Library Board members, mem-
bers and Sesquicentennial com-
mittee chairman from Liberty
County, Dayton and Cleveland,
Mayor Richard Boyett and four
Liberty County Historical Com-
mission members were among those
present to enjoy the displays and
refreshments.

tion has set up the waiting list and those repairs will be done as
money is made available.
It isn’t even necessary for the homeowners to sign up in per-
son. People in the organization realize some of those who’s
homes are in need of repair are unable to make even short
trips, so the homeowner may appoint an agent, maybe a friend
or family member, to sign up for them. But whether in person
or through an appointed agent, the homeowner must sign the
waiting list in order to be considered for the assistance.
“Anyone can serve as an agent,” Rice said. “The important
thing is we need to know who the homeowners are and where
they’re located.
“The problem is, we can’t take this information over the
phone. We’ve got to have people come in and tell us where these
folks live and get some information from them. They must
show they have some interest in the program.”
The interest should be there. Repairs will consist of whatever
needs to be done to the roof with a $1,000 maximum. This may
be as little as scraping and repainting some tin roofs or as
much as striping off old shingles, repairing the decking and
putting on new shingles.
“The idea,” Rice said, “is to repair the roof so the
homeowner doesn’t have any problems with it for about 10
years.”
And problems are something some of our residents have
enough of.
The woman sits down in her easychair as the waterdrops
play a syncopated rhythm on the catch-pans. She’s spent over
50 years in the old house and hates the thought of moving. She
knows the kids would like to help her but they don’t have the
money. She knows it’s tough to raise younguns’ when times are
hard —she’s done it.
“If there was just some way I could keep the water out,” she
says as the first of many drops fall on the old white kitchen
stove.

Doctors Invent
‘Lazy Way’ to $
Lose Weight
New 'Fat-Magnet' Diet Pill li;'
Gives You Steady Fat Loss
BEVERLY HILLS, CA (Special)-
An amazing new weight loss pill
called “fat-magnet” has recently been
developed and perfected by two prom-
inent doctors at a world famous
hospital in Los Angeles that reported-
ly “guarantees” to help you steadily
lose fat by simply taking their tested
and proven new pill.
You Can “Eat Normally”
Best of all, “you can continue to eat
all of your favorite foods as long as
you don’t increase your normal eating
habits. You can start losing fat from
the very First day, until you achieve
the ideal weight you desire.”
It is a totally new major scientific
breakthrough for weight loss
(worldwide patents pending).
Flushes Fat Out of Body
The new pill is appropriately call-
ed the “fat-magnet” pill because it
breaks into thousands of particles,
each acting like a tiny magnet, “at-
tracting” and trapping many times its
size in undigested fat particles from^y
food that you have just eaten. Then.T'
the trapped fat is naturally “flushed”
right out of your body.
Within 2 days you should notice a
change in the color of your stool, caus-
ed by the fat particles being eliminated.
“Pills Go To Work”
The fat-magnet pills alone,
“automatically” help reduce calories
by eliminating dietary fat, with no ex-
ercising. You simply take the pills
with a glass of water before meals.
However, you can lose weight
“faster” if you choose to follow the
fat-magnet diet plan along with the pill s.
The fat-magnet pills are already
sweeping the country with record
sales and glowing reports of weight
loss. It’s a “lazy way” to lose weight
for people who enjoy eating.
. Now Available to Public

amount of weight, you can order your
supply of these new highly successful
fat-magnet pills and diet plan (now^,,
