Lot’s of things are going on in the community. Congratulations to Summit and Prairie for their good performance throughout the basketball season. Good luck to the Lady Pirates on their way to state, and to the boys teams as they begin district tournaments. Continue to make us proud! For those of you who attended the dinner at Keuterville Parish Hall, wasn’t the food delicious? Good service, a nice crowd and wonderful time. Kudos to the people who made it such a success. Down in the Library things are happening. The word is getting around that internet is available and we are seeing more people using the system along with people using the copy machine for just 10 cents a copy. A fax machine is also available for public use. And of course we have books!! Idaho Public Television is once again sponsoring the 2013 PBS Kids Go! Writers Contest. The information is available at the library along with entry forms for grades K-1-2-3. Deadline is March 29, 2013. Recent new arrivals and now on the shelf, include, The Racketeer by John Grisham. Who is the Racketeer? And what does he have to do with the judge’s untimely demise? His name, for the moment, is Malcom Bannister. Job status? Former attorney. Current residence? The Federal Prison Camp near Frostburg, Maryland. On paper, Malcom’s situation isn’t looking too good these days, but he’s got an ace up his sleeve. He knows who killed Judge Fawcett, and he knows why. The judge’s body was found in his remote lakeside cabin. No forced entry, no struggle, just two dead bodies: Judge Fawcett and his young secretary. And one large, state -of-the -art, extremely secure safe, opened and emptied. Threat Vector by Tom Clancy, an electrifying work of fiction that may soon be frighteningly close to reality. For the covert warriors of the secret organization known as The Campus, the fight against America’s enemies is never over--if only because one enemy’s destruction inevitably gives rise to a new, even more dangerous foe. But for Jack Ryan, Jr., and his comrades, the danger has just hit home in a way they never expected. The Campus has been discovered. And whoever knows it exists knows it can be destroyed. Another, The Twelve by Justin Cronin is available. These books are “thriller” reading. On a lighter note, the very popular publication, Cross Roads, by W, Paul Young, author of the bestseller “The Shack,” is also available along with Coming Home by Karen Kingsbury. Somewhere to Belong, a journey inside the picturesque villages of the Amana Colonies, 1877, and A Clearing in the Wild by Jane Kirkpatrick, promise many hours of good reading. Come check them out! |
