Pallbearers 'were: Art Devereaux, John O'Reilly, Frank Reynolds, Lou `Coyne, Torn Dorsey and. Joseph Dorsey. This, week Morning Out was. privileged to have two guest speakers. The first was Bill Partridge, head' librarian for the Huron Cpunty Library system ' who outlined some of the services provided by the local branch. He told the group that the `Seaforth library has 8-10,000 books and in 1977 had a circu- lation of about 350,000 „pieces. .The county system has' a total collection of about 150,000 books and spends $100,000. annually for new books. Some of this money comes from Vyintario grants. The library subscribes to several magazines including some Canadian publications. Although the local library. doesn't have films on hand, there is a catalogue of 16 m.m. films which includes selections from the National Film' Board. These can be ordered through the librarian. There is a small selection of phonograph records at the local branch many of which are children's records. Other children's features are puppet shows, activity groups, story hour, and a summer reading program. " An 'inter-library :exchange ,program permits the borrowing of books from other libraries in the system or from other systems such as Toronto or Ottawa on a short tern basis. One of the services which isn't too well known is the "talking book" program. This is a series of cassette recordings for use by blind or...hatidicapped persons only and must be ordered through the librarian. Another little known fact which sparked a lot of interest with the group is that books can be renewed by telephone. The second guest. was Janis Bisback of Hensall who is, a leader from the La. Leche League. She explained that the league was founded in 1951 In Chicago by a group of seven woineit'Whose common interest was a desire to breast-feed their babies.' The 'league was formed to encourage • and support other women, who wanted to breastfeed their babies and has. grown to • 12,000 groups all over the World, Mrs. Bisback emphasized that the, gronpr-is not anti-bottle feeding but merely supplies information and support to women . who want it. It has 'a borrowing library for its members with about 30 books, Morning Out thanks both Mrs. Bisbaok and Mr. Partridge for their interesting and informative talks. On Tuesday, April 11, the speaker will be Don. Keillor, the itirector of the Huron Child and Yoifth Centre in Clinton. Everyone is welcome to come to Morning Out to, hear Mr.• Keillor at the Town Hall from 9:30-11:30 a.m. Obituary •••
