How hmg since you last read or
heard a Slakespeare play? If
you haw been discouraged by the
small type of the "Collected
Works." or by the antiquated
single vohlmes in the library, you
will be happy teL see the new set
of forty volumes, bound in blue, of
the Yale University Shakespeare,
Just added to the collection. The
set includes the thirty-seven plays,
a volume of sonnets and a vol-
ume of the other puems; and
"Shakespeare of Stratford; a stu-
dent's handbook," containing all
the documents known pertaining
to Shakespeare's life. May We
suggest tlmt you take a play
home with you on your next trip
to the library? it's easy to forget
between readings how good the
plays really are!
THE LIBRARY also owns two
fne recordings of Shakespeare
plays. "The Merchant of Venice"
stars the superb English actor,
Mic.hael Redgrave, as Shylock.
"Humtet" ts played by the Old
Vic Company, with John Gielgud,
whom many consider the fire,st
Hamlet of our times, in the title
role. To listen as well as read
will add immeamlrably to your en-
joyment of the plays.

},They were gaLh'ered as part of the

the Public Health Service.
The conclusions are of special
significance at this time because
of the meeting in'Chicago this
month of safety experts fronl all
over the United States for the
National Safety Congress,
During the year' ending January
1, 1958, the survey shows, there
were 9 atal accidents among Ma-

Related to Macon county's pop-

the rate of 52 fatalities per
100,00 people.
This compares favorably with
the figures or the United States
as a whole, which averaged 55
per 100,000.
It was also below the rate for
the state of Washington, 59 per
100,000.
,The enormity of the accident
roblem is seen in figures rom
e U.S. National !-lealth Survey,
that required medical attettl or

there were 493 non-fatal ones.

How hmg since you last read or
heard a Slakespeare play? If

single vohlmes in the library, you
will be happy teL see the new set
of forty volumes, bound in blue, of
the Yale University Shakespeare,
Just added to the collection. The
set includes the thirty-seven plays,
a volume of sonnets and a vol-
ume of the other puems; and
"Shakespeare of Stratford; a stu-
dent's handbook," containing all
the documents known pertaining
to Shakespeare's life. May We
suggest tlmt you take a play
home with you on your next trip
to the library? it's easy to forget
between readings how good the
plays really are!
THE LIBRARY also owns two
fne recordings of Shakespeare
plays. "The Merchant of Venice"
stars the superb English actor,
Mic.hael Redgrave, as Shylock.
"Humtet" ts played by the Old
Vic Company, with John Gielgud,
whom many consider the fire,st
Hamlet of our times, in the title
role. To listen as well as read

The conclusions are of special

During the year' ending January

It was also below the rate for
