RENCHER, a master wood- worker, says he can tell how well furniture is made by running his hand across the wood. Funds for Library Addition Requested fund raising effort to solicit donations for construction of a 5,200 square foot addition to the Southwest Branch Library in Roy begins this month. ROY A The Neighbor to Neighbor campaign will start in the southwestern communities of Weber County served by the Southwest Branch Library. Shirley Carver of Hooper, chairman of the campaign, is enlisting residents to distribute informational flyers describing the project. Students in the vocational department at Roy High School will build the $150,000 addition. Plans are to begin construction during the 1984-8- 5 school year. The current building has inadequate space to efficiently serve our many patrons, said Nancy Martinez, head librarian t FARMINGTON Its the touch of the masters hand and you can truly feel the difference. When John U. Rencher, 214 E. 600 S. runs his hand over a piece of furniture, nothing remains a secret. You can tell the kind of wood and how well a piece of furniture is made just by running your hand across the wood, said Rencher as he lightly brushed the top of the desk. Its solid black walnut and you cant buy that anymore, he said. He showed how he had pieced three one and a half inch thick boards together to make the top of the beautifully finished desk. Walnut is the finest American cabinet wood and it was going into the making of gun stocks during World War I, said Rencher. Rencher always used the finest woods he could get to make his desks, bookcases, hope chests, corner display racks, or whatever. He would first make a piece to show the boys in his of the Southwest Branch. The childrens area is very small. We also need more room for adult programs so access to books is not limited during lec- tures. In the past nine months, more than 3,000 adults and children have attended library programs. WITH 2 7 Kiilpt popular with the boys. They would use the walnut scraps and turn the wood and glue it together to make a rounded box for their girl friends. Beginning his career in metal work, he made a pair of spurs out of cooper and silver that are a one of a kind item. Theres a secret about the jaws of the spurs and how to keep them from breaking. Bringing the art to his work, Rencher always designed his own pieces and tried to improve on others that he would see. His piano bench carries the pattern of the wood and cutting design on both the front and the back of the pieces. four, Rencher, father grandfather of 17 and greatgrandfather of eight, is still creating works of art with wood. r 4. of His eyes twinkle as he shows off his designs and projects. You have to really feel the wood to get to know it, he says. I put down my pencil and marvel as my hand glides over the oiled finished product.

The reasoning for inviting the mothers in was First,, the mother was the one who would have to pay for the piece and second, the boys would work very hard to try to match what the old master had done. The first project he ever worked on was a dining room table and six chairs he gave to h,s wife Mary when they were married in 1922. The table and chairs are from a type of oak, which brings out the streaks and which is now unobtainable, he said. Weve used them all our married life, she wouldnt let us use anything else, he said. Rencher began his teaching career in Burley, Idaho, and Shelley, Idaho. . I always made them do the work with hand tools so when they went back to their farms and didnt have the electricity, they could make the furniture for their homes, he said.
