Book Week Will
Be Observed
Nov. IS to Il

Book week-l942 Since last year
books and libraries have taken on
more significance. Books for en-
listed men, for defense workers,
for the misunderstanding citizens,
for those wishing relaxation, and,
last but not least, for the children,
have been furnished and librarians
all over the country have tried to
cooperate in the war effort The
heavy demand for books on inter-
national affairs, history, trades, sci
ence, and other non-fiction titles in
dicate the growing consciousness
that education for democracy" is
no meaningless phrase. The adult
attitude is reflected in the chill
dren's requests, also. Books of pio-
Ineer stories, of mechanics, of Latin
American countries, are often asked
for along with the ever-favorite an
imal stories.
Next week, November 1921, is
Book Week and the slogan is For
ward with Books" Lincoln County
Library is preparing to celebrate
this occasion and will have on ex-
hibit the new fall books, adult and
juvenile. Among the adult books
are several informative and thought
provoking titles that should be read
by those trying to keep pace with
world affairs. An interesting col
/ lection of biography, travel, adven-
ture, miscellaneous types, and fic-
ton will be on display during the
week. The children's books have
never been more attractive, color
full, and exciting than the collec-
ton this year. Parents should make
point to look over the new selec-
ton to see what is available.
Following its usual custom the Ii
brary has conducted a contest among
the schools of the county and the
entries of this contest will also bt
on display during the week and i
will be most interesting to observe
the results of the originality ane
creative ability of the youngsters
The library staff is very anxiou
to have host of visitors next week
There will also be displays at tn
Eureka and Troy branches. Max
Book Week-1942 an outstanding
EVENT.

Facing Most
Gigantic
Task Ever
Postoffice Department To
Be Swamped With
Christmas Mail.
ASKS PUBLIC BY ALL
MEANS TO MAIL EARLY

The post office department now
is starting the most gigantic task
in its history-the movement OF a
deluge of Christmas parcels, cards
and letters while maintaining the
regular flow of millions of pieces
Of mail daily to and from our armed
forces all over the world.
Indications are that the volume
of Christmas mail will be the larg-
est on record. Already in Septem-
Der, latest month for which figures
are available, retail sales had
reached level second only to the
record month of December, 1941.
according to the Department of
Commerce. And sales are rising
Such heavy purchases always pres
age heavy mailings.
If thousands of our soldiers, sail
ors, marines and civilian friends
are not to be disappointed at Christ
mas time, the public must cooper
ate by mailing earlier than ever
before and by addressing letters and
parcels properly. The best efforts
of the post office department alone
cannot be enough, in view of war
time difficulties faced by the postal
system. The public must assist.
About $4,000 experienced postal
workers already have been taken
by the war services. Arrangements
are under way to add thousands Of
temporary personnel to postal stats.
Facilities of railroads and air lines
are heavily taxed by movements of
huge quantities of war materials and
personnel. Extra trucks are al
most impossible to obtain. Winter
weather, hampering transportation,
Is beginning.
The free-mailing privilege grant
ed to members of the armed forces
has raised their mailings some 80
per cent 1t is estimated. Expansion
Of those forces also is adding rapid
ly to the postal burden.
The deadline already is past for
mailing gifts to Army and Navy
personnel overseas with assurance
! that the parcels will arrive by
Christmas. The New York post Of
flee reports that in late October,
$4,000 such parcels were handled
daily in that office alone.
The post office department is
making strenuous efforts to avoid
such a terrific jam as it faced in
1918 under similar conditions, dur
the First World War It can sue
coed in those efforts-and avoid
many heartaches for its patrons-if
the public will cooperate by mailing
early.

of defense purposes or plans. More
often than not these visitors meet at
parties officials Of this country with
whom they just short time before
had important conferences. and
combine further business with the

and their equally popular wives are

arrive as chief of military mission.
Air Commodore Puga was here

the rank of squadron commander.
He arrived in 1896 accompanied by
Sonora de Puga and their two chill
dren and since their return to Chile
another son has been added to the
family. All three children are
coming with them.
Air Commodore and Sonora de
Puga were among the very popular
members of the diplomatic corps
during the several years that they
were here. They entertained
frequently at small and informal
parties in their attractive apart
ment at 2540 Massachusetts avenue.
The Pugas have sailed from Chile
and are expected to arrive In New
York about March 16. They prob
ably will stay there a few days be-
fore coming to Washington and
taking up their residence again.
