year -old Bobby Haskell disclosed
Tuesday he made a sharp deal with
the deark who promised to trade
knife for Bobby's two front teeth."
The clerk. Don Slmonson. was
just fooling. But Bobby wasn't. He
went home and worked out a front

anyway.
The second tooth Bobby needed
wouldn't come out and Slmonson
had said "two" front teeth. Then
Just in time his nine-year -o 1 d

and the impressive total for last
week's circulation was 13&5 books
checked out in the four van days.
To keep pace with the increased
demand, additional boxes of books
are stored Inside and a special
request system is maintained.
The idea of making summer read
ing available to readers over the
county via a traveling library waa
initiated in the early JO s and has
been continued ever since. To allow
for summer vacation trips and treks
to camp, fines are not charged for
the borrowed books, but overdue no
tices are mailed as reminders. Local
ities where the van provides recrea
tional reading during the summer
often ask for winter collections, such
as at Klamath Agency. Port Klam
ath. Horaoja housing project, and
Modoc Point. More stops are added
to the summer schedules as needed:
this year's addition was the Shasta
View housing project.
An Interesting aspect of ran ser
vice Is the special reader request
system. Prom preschoolers to a
couple who celebrated their golden
wedding anniversary come these re-
quests. Primers recommended by
teachers are kept on shelves desig
nated for first, second and third
graders, and some ask for extra
books for Improving reading ability.
