HERMOSA BEACH FRIENDS OF THE LIBRARY
550 Pier Avenue
Hermosa Beach, California, 90254
Dusk, very gently, touches house and dove cote, tree and door. Shyly looks in a lace-curtained window, a room warm and friendly, a lighted lamp on a table by an opened book. A book, the passport to everywhere in the universe: the Taj Mahal; Lhasa, tucked under the eaves of the world; Maxim's and the Cordon Bleu; Lourdes; the steps of Rome; a snow slope of crystal enchantment in the Alps. Books bless our eyes and nourish our souls. How wondrous they are !
The Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library will hold their super-stupendous Christmas book sale Saturday, December 9th, at the Library at 10:00 A.M. - 1:00 P.M. This is one event you must not miss. Come by and pick up your passport. We have one for every place you ever dreamed of visiting.
This year is our beloved Teddy Bear's seventy fifth birthday. There is a nostalgic display of teddy bears at our library for you to see. It will conjure up loving memories of a dear friend of childhood.
The Hermosa Beach Friends of the Library's Christmas gift to our library was a generous one. Some thirty four magazines and periodicals were renewed.
The year of my presidency is coming to a close. It has been an experience I shall not forget. Frustrations, joys and high hopes that didn't quite come off. To those few who were such magnificent help, I pay high accolades. Two stand out like beacons---Charlotte Malone ! Her support and good council never diminished, always there steady and true. Remarkable in this day and time. Cynthia Godofsky ! Cynthia never once said 'No", steadfast, really helping in the true sense of the word. This very special lady blessed my year and made it worthwhile and memorable.
To everyone I wish a most blessed Christmas.
