The farmer then gets a third or fourth of the harvest instead of a half.maggie moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462439415973311990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20112247.post-21394993483073500612008-06-04T11:21:00.000-05:002008-06-04T11:21:00.000-05:00Hi, I still can't get your email to work .

These really help the library raise money for summer reading programs, grants, supplies, and building repairs. I went in one, while in Seattle, that was cleaner, bighter than the library itself! They sold notecards and stuffed animals, too. That library of your's sounds awesome! :)maggie moranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02462439415973311990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20112247.post-74364374516712698282008-06-03T19:19:00.000-05:002008-06-03T19:19:00.000-05:00Hey Maggie,I just saw your question in response to...Hey Maggie,<BR/><BR/>I just saw your question in response to my comment about our library sale corner. Our little sale corner has got a combination of the library's rejects (whatever is pulled out of circulation), donated books and magazines, and sometimes even video or cassette tapes -- whatever media people want to get rid of. It's run by the Friends of the Library, not the city/county, and helps to support their worthy efforts. I've donated things to the library itself, in the past, so it can be done.Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20112247.post-41639257831439142262008-06-03T07:18:00.000-05:002008-06-03T07:18:00.000-05:00Thanks Debi!

I'll take the ghost stories any day to this real-life scenario.<BR/><BR/>Hey, do you think we will disappear if we walk over the Bells' graves in Batesville? ;)<BR/><BR/>No problem with Mister Linky.

What I do remember is her calling the mother "Luce" and pulling the girl's hair when she was in bed at night. I also remember the detail of her dropping exotic fruit on the table when there were guests around one night and then recognizing the same detail the next time I taught Marlowe's Tragical History of Doctor Faustus. That reassured me that at least some of the details were conjured up by imagination and not witches! <BR/><BR/>I think I figured out Mr. Linky, btw, but I added my name after you already had and I don't know how to zap one--sorryLeeLeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04481816931726603998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20112247.post-42063475993500461702008-06-02T21:30:00.000-05:002008-06-02T21:30:00.000-05:00I had forgotten Eudora Welty.
