in 10 Edgar H. Pressgrove Sr. enjoyed having his daughter, Dorothy Schade of St. Louis, and his son Edgar H. Pressgrove Jr.

of California, for a visit last week. Thought for the week: When I was young, I used to like to visit a friend or spend the night. Her folks had a really nice house, as I recall. And we weren't allowed in the living room. It had something to do with how we might get it all dirty if we played in there.

So the room was always spotless and always vacant. One afternoon my friend told me, "You know, Mama and I could probably be much better friends if she wasn't always worrying so much about a clean I don't remember where I learned the word priority, but I sure learned the concept that day. My friend's mother had set her priorities, and in her zeal with cleanliness, she had overlooked the comfort of the people who lived in that house. Having a home of my own and a husband, a son and daughter-inlaw who visit often, a dog and a thousand and one demands on my time, I've discovered priorities too. And they begin with the important people in my life.

If on occasion our place might seem slightly un- Charleston News By Sara Newton tidy, I just smile. I have wonderful husband, son and daughter-in-law and dog and our relationship to each other as a family far supersedes anything in our house. Some call that a priority. Other call it a good stewardship of the time with which God has blessed us. Me? I just say it's putting first things first with love.

SMITH Tallahatchie Library Director Tallahatchie County Library has been experimenting with the different operating hours during the month of October. These changes were due to requests from patrons.

We have been open until 5:30 and on Saturdays. There has been no significant change in the amount of circulation. The new hours were in the SunSentinel and posted at the entrances of the library. In an effort to continue to try to please the public, we will try again in November. Our hours will be 8- 5:30 on Monday through Wednesday and 8-5 on Friday.

We will remain open during the lunch hour. Some people will still need to use the library on Saturday, so we will be open on the second Saturday of each month from 8-12. We would like to increase our circulation, as well as please our patrons. We are however, trying to stay within our budget for utilities and they are used, if we are open. Please be a friend of the library.

Here are some ways to help the library: the library. magazines to the library when you finish reading them. memorials. books when you finish reading them. books and materials on time.
