Our way of life has changed
drastically in the past month.
Although we moan and groan, it
seems the gas shortage has ac-
tually had some unexpected
benefits. Traffic is much lighter
and parking spaces more abun-
dant. Car pools to church,
bridge club, work, and sports
events give us a chance for a
pleasant visit with friends and
neighbors.
Because we are no longer
spending the day running ‘‘er-
rands’’, there is more time to
catch up on chores at home. I've
heard one friend has been work-
ing on her photo album, sorting
out pictures she had accumulat-
ed over the past several years.
Another is crocheting sweaters
for her grandchildren. Other
forms of hand-work are pop-
ular.
Another friend is cleaning out
all of her bureau drawers.
Reading is also a favorite past-
time. Even the old cribbage
board got a dusting off at our
house last week. So the weekend
pleasure jaunt has been sacri-
ficed, but in its place are more
creative activities and new
friendships.
It’s just too bad someone has

not invented a way to harness
the energy of teenagers. At
Lake-Lehman High School, 44
girls are now selling tickets for
a Volleyball Marathon to be
held March 16. Like any mara-
thon, you agree to pay so much
for each hour the girl you spon-
sor can last in the marathon, up
to 12 hours. The proceeds for
each ho r will benefit ‘Teen
Challenge’’, an organization
dedicated to helping youth with

imagine 12 hours of volleyball?
They better stock up on lots of
bananas.

Several new additions that
will delight and amuse the
younger set have recently ar-
rived at the Children’s Annex of
the Back Mountain Memorial
Library. ‘‘Where Is It?”, by
Tana Hoban, will intrigue the
youngest child. With simple,
rhythmic words and engaging
photographs, the small reader
will be led right into a young
rabbit’s world.
Here, he can follow the ex-
plorations of Tana Hoban’s
marvelously appealing rabbit,
as he bounds from here to there
and round about in his search
for something very special in-
deed.
Another that is sure to be a
success with the small fry is
“Mrs. Beggs And The Wizard’,
written and illustrated by Mer-
cer Mayer. This is a story of a
peaceful boarding house, run by
Mrs. Beggs.
At least everything was
peaceful until the arrival of a
new boarder, who rented a
room on the third floor. His cal-
ling card read ‘Z.P. Alabas-
ium, Wizard Extraordinaire.”
The strangest things began hap-
pening after his arrival.
There were noises during the
night, a thunderstorm in the
parlor soaked everyone to the
bone, chairs floated about in the
air and a blizzard roared
through the house complete
with howling winds and snow.
By the time Mr. Plimp’s beaver
hat had turned into a beaver
again and bitten him, all the
guests were complaining.
Of course, this wasn’t good for
business, but Mrs. Beggs had a
few tricks up her sleeve. She got
out a large box marked ‘‘Wit-
chery for Fun and Profit”, and
that was the beginning of even
stranger events, and real sur-
prises, for Mr. Alabasium, for
young readers, and yes, for
Mrs. Beggs, too!
Are you planning a party?
Then ‘Games (And How To
Play Them)’’ is waiting for you.
Here are forty-three wonderful
games for all kinds of occasions
and all kinds of children—noisy
games, quiet games, team
games, traveling games, out-
door games and rainy-day
games—clearly described and
All these games can be played
with little or no equipment and
without adult supervision.
Directions and rules are set
forth simply, to try to eliminate
squabbles and confusion.
Altogether, Anne Rockwell
has created a book that will be
treasured by parents, teachers
and all adults who recall their
own childhood games with plea-
sure and nostalgia; but most of
all, by children themselves.
“The Mother Whale”, by
Edith Thacher Hurd, is for the
lovers of nature lore. Using
simple language and beautiful
block prints, Edith Thacher
Hurd shows readers how one of
the most magnificent of crea-
tures, the whale, lives and
grows.
In describing the cycle in
which the mother whale mates,
