Nite Free Parking OVERLOOKING THE LAKE THE DALLAS POST, SEPT. 10, 1970 ‘“‘how-to’’ books at local library Anybody can learn to do any- thing, or so it would seem after looking over the dozens of ‘‘how- to-do-it”’ books listed in the card catalog at the Back Mountain Memorial Library. There are many cards in the catalog be- ginning with the magic words “how to,” and each card repre- sents a book on the library’s shelves. Books on how to make a will, adopt a child, lose weight, earn money, plan for retirement, learn a foreign language, and carry on a conversation are listed with others on how to stop drinking, live with a teen-ager, add years to your life, get more for your money, tempt a fish, and travel without being rich. Home building and remodel- ing is a favorite field for ‘‘how- to” books. There are books on how to build a garage, install plumbing, remodel a house, lay linoleum and tile, make built-in furniture, paint and wallpaper, and plant your home ground. For hobbyists, there are “how-to” manuals on how to paint landscapes, do wood carving, refinish furniture, make ceramics, use hand tools, arrange flowers, take pictures, tie flies, make mobiles, and sell your handicrafts. The businessman and execu- tive will find books on how to manage a small business, be a successful leader, write better business letters, solve manage- ment problems, train super- visors, read the financial news, invest wisely, chart data, and increase executive effective- ness. Patrons can also receive help on how to run for office, bowl better, buy a used sports car, repair appliances, write for television, hold a better meet- ing, enjoy ballet, build and race hot rods, speak well in public, get into college, apply for a job, conduct a perfect wedding, get - the breaks, and conquer fears and worries. And do nothing with nobody all alone by your- self. And all books, of course, are wonderful for allowing a reader to do nothing with nobody all alone by himself. “Musical Places’’ Youth of Christ first rally guests Lester and Grace Place, the well-known ‘Musical Places,” will be special guests for the first rally of the fall season of Youth For Christ.
