UPhanks to outstanding donations and purchasing on the part of the library
staff the November 18 pre—Christmas craft and bake sale was an overwhelming
success. Thanks are also due to those staff members whose donations enabled
LSO again to make its annual Thanksgiving donation.
Next on the LSO schedule is the Library's annual Christmas party which is
scheduled for Friday, December 16, at 11:30 a.m. at the Alumni House on the
corner of Rose Street and Euclid Avenue. The party will follow the format of
previous years: it will be a pot luck with the meat entree and beverages
provided by LSO. Current staff are asked to bring a dish to share. As in the
past, retired staff members will be guests at the party. All library
employees are welcome to attend. There will be no charge to LSO members;
non-members will be asked to pay $3 at the door.
Again this year children‘s toys and money will be accepted at the party. The
toys, which will be donated to the Salvation Army, should be new, suitable for
children from infants through 12 years of age, and should be unwrapped.
(Parents will select toys for their children, so the toys need to be readily _
identifiable. The money collected at the party will be added to that col-~
lected in the LSO donation boxes which are already in library departments and
will be donated to the UK hospital's children‘s ward for a special need iden~
tified by them. Last year the money bought a guitar; the year before that it
went toward purchase of a microwave oven.
