Making Life HarderYou're doing it if you still get hot water from

a teakettle for bathing, dishwashing and all otherhousehold uses. You can easily get r id ofall thatinconvenience by installing a water heater.

With the many styles of modern water heaters available, everyone can have hot water, pipeddirectly to every place it 's needed-supplied a ta

faucet's turn-for much less money than is spentfor many unnecessary things.

Abundant hot water means bathing and shaving without wai ti ng. Housec leaning i s donequicker. S teaming hot water for dishwashingmakes dishes almost self-drying.

Don't continue doing without a modern waterheater without first investigating its low operating cost. Drop in a nd see t he va ri et y of waterheaters you have to select from.

Library 's Volume Conta ins Work's

New Rules fo r Game.

"Work on Auct ion Bridge" is abook that h as p ai d i ts way.at th.eCommunity Lihrary e\'er s1I1ce Itwas pu t on the ,shelves. Therewas never a doubt that it f il led awidespread and constant local ~ e mand. Therefore, there was chsmay in the minds of the l i b r ~ r ystaff when i t was learned last W1l1

te r that \ Vo rk h ad revised hisru les and, with possib le d e l i b e r a ~ eintent , h ad obsole ted to a certal11degree all of his previous booksof rules.

Th e l ibr ary was sho r t of. f t l l ~ d sas u sua l and ther e was hes Itat Ion

about buying a new book and.discardinO' t he ol d one, espeCIallywhen it was recognized t ha t M r.

Work could force such a situationevery year if he c are d to do so.At this point, M is s A nn a Ma c-. Keag, presidentof the Library Association and a valued member ofth e l ibr a rian' s s ta ff , s tepped for

ward w i th a solution.

Miss MacKeag, who is herselfa b ridge en thus ias t, said thatWork's new rules were concernedmostly with a simplification o f t h evalue o fhonor card s in relation tosui ts , a ss igning to each sui t, thesame value, Miss MacKeag, therefore suggested that the insertionof a'new score card in the library 'spresent volume would bring itdown to date and save the expen seof a new book. That was d on earid local br idgeplayers , whohavesince consulted the book, havepronounced it entirely satisfac

tory.

This incident is a typical illust r at ion o f th e r esou rceful character of Miss IVlacKeag's wor k i nthe library. He r wide knowledgeon many subjects and careful at:tention to numberless details andrequests f rom readers a re import

an t factors in the p r esent service,which th e library is giving to thepeople of Narber th, and it i s generally regretted that illness is atpresent interrupting her workthere.
