A few of the new books at the Public Library this week are: "A Book of Mormon Treasury." Trea-sury." This book was written from selections from the pages of the Improvement Era. Many outstanding scholars in the Church probe into the lives of Joseph Smith and the witnesses wit-nesses to the Book of Mormon. They describe the language, people, and leading characters in the Book of Mormon. They give concise straightforward answers to any and all questions ques-tions that anyone might have.

"Answers to Book of Mormon Mor-mon Questions" by Sidney B. Sperry.

Many questions ques-tions originating from unfriendly unf-riendly critics in their efforts to discredit the Nephite record are candidly and openly discussed. dis-cussed. The book will be useful and interesting to all Chruch members, but especially so to the missionaries and teachers who are often confronted with difficult questions.

The residents served by the library program have not previously been part of the regular school program, according ac-cording to Mrs. Call, so the library and it's resources are taken to them. Seasonal stories, holiday activities ac-tivities and numbers, and language lan-guage development are also part of the teaching program. In her visits to the various cottages, Mrs. Call has discovered disco-vered talents among the residents, resi-dents, with two of the Wing B residents recently appearing on a school assembly. "The Devices of Darkness" by Jean English. This is a brooding tale of romance, suspense and witchcraft set in the days of Victorian England and beyond. "The Phantom of Fonthill Park" by Kay R. Vernon. Susan Reeves, a heiress whom circumstance has reduced to the lowly but honorable position posi-tion of seamstress, journeys to the estate of Sir Charles Tempest Tem-pest to seek employment. Her presence at Fonthill Park is haunted by a woman in black: a phantom that stalks the grounds of the estate, deter-mined deter-mined to lay claim to someone, or something within the walls of the manor. "Lisa, Bright and Dark" by John Neufeld. Lisa couldn't help saying anything that came into her head. On her good days, Lisa was as bright and natural as her friends; on her dark days, she was depressed, withdrawn, and deep in conversation with her "English Voices." Lisa Shilling, Shill-ing, sixteen, was losing her mind! "Muir's Blood" by Charles Larson. One day Chet Muir staggers into a hospital in great pain, believing that his ulcer is kicking up, but it is soon apparent that it wasn't merely something he ate.

Elmore Joins Staff at Am. Fork Clinic It was announced this week that Lyle R. Elmore has joined the staff at the American Ameri-can Fork Clinic. , Mr. Elmore is not yet a doc-tbr'so doc-tbr'so in order that one may better understand him and what he will be doing, a brief synopsis of his experience and education along with a description of his duties and responsibilities at the clinic follow. After completing a mission for the LDS Church in Sweden, Lyle was trained as a surgical technician. The next 12 years he was employed full or part time in the surgery and emergency emer-gency rooms of various hospitals hospi-tals in the west. During this period he also continued his education, graduating from the University of Washington with a B.A. degree in foreign languages. After graduation he and his family moved to Salt Lake City where he was employed with the LDS Church Education System as a seminary teacher. Later he returned to school to complete his pre-medical studies, after which he entered medical school. He has now taken a temporary leave of absence to join the American Fork Clinic staff for a year, after which he plans to return to medical school. A nationwide search for a satisfactory solution to the problem of providing adequate medical assistance has resulted result-ed in the increased use of individuals indi-viduals like Mr. Elmore in hospitals and clinics such as ours. The assistant performs specified tasks under the supervision of his physician-preceptor physician-preceptor thereby allowing the physician more time to devote to seriously ill patients and other pressing health problems. prob-lems. When an assistant joins a physician's practice, greater numbers of patients can be afforded access to high quality medical services. Specifically, the assistant applies medical skills under the close supervision supervi-sion of the physician. He is capable of extending his physician's capacity in numerous numer-ous ways, ie; screening and initially examining patients in the office, assisting with house calls, treating emergencies, accomplishing physical examinations, exa-minations, assisting at surgery, sur-gery, and providing follow-up care, as well as completing other tasks designated by the physician. Additionally, many assistants assist the physician with hospitalized patients. A study conducted in the State of Utah shows that patient response to the medical medi-cal assistant has been excellent. excel-lent. The same study also suggests sug-gests the assistant's employment employ-ment in a clinic substantially enhances the quality and effi- This is a time of agony and indecision for a segment of the population. And I'm glad that at this point in time I am neither a politician nor a football foot-ball coach. The end of the football season sea-son and the decision in the election means "moving" time for a lot of people. Hardly a newscast goes by nowadays without giving the name and vital game statistics for some hapless football coach who is out of a job because his players were out of the winners win-ners circle. Ditto for politicians. Oh, to be a real estate agent near Washington, D.C.! You could make it big on a commission from the losers who were now selling and moving to better climes. You could make it big from the winners who were now buyers and moving into the tempest of the Washington scene. One thing I think is great for the President-elect. He doesn't have to buy a house in Washington. This is one of the "goodies" that come with the job. Ditto for the vice-president, vice-president, now that the people have finally recognized that this person (and family) had a need for at least an official residence along with the thankless jobmof being the "vice." The winners and losers are going to be alright on the state level, too. Governor Rampton and his sweet wife, Lucybeth, The Messiah Mailorder Deadline Sat.

Utah Wildlife Director Sets Meeting Don Smith, new director of Wildlife Resources, Utah Division Divi-sion will be holding a series of meetings throughout the area this week. All persons interested are invited to come out and meet Mr. Smith on Wednesday, Dec. 8, at 7:30 p.m., Brigham Young University campus, Martin Building, Room 446. Utah residents need to speak out and be heard. Everyone should share their views about Utah's Wildlife. In 1925 it was possible to buy an automobile for as little as $2601 ciency of care provided by the clinic. Lyle and his wife, Linda, with their five children have just moved to American Fork.

Tyler and Nathan provide their mother with numerous interesting experiences exper-iences at home while the older ones are in school. mm are moving out of the Governor's Gover-nor's Mansion, but they seem to be moving in light'spirits. Of course, this means that The Guv is going to have to learn to drive again, after being driven hither and yon by a highway patrolman for these past twelve years. It means that he'll have to buy a few more dinners and divvy up for a lot more entertainment, but he seems willing to pay the price. The Matheson's will be moving mov-ing into the lovely mansion with their family. I wonder if they will find it difficult to adjust to having a housekeeper, housekee-per, a driver, a gardener, and all the good things that come with the house and new responsibility. Some of those leaving Washington do so with light hearts too. Like the Rockefellers, Rocke-fellers, for instance. They have several homes, in various parts of the country, and their only decision now is where do they want to live for the next few months. Different with the football coaches. They have to go back to basics and hustle the hills for a new job. Imagine the difficulty of going home to tell the little woman you lost too many football foot-ball games and she not only would be looking for a new house, but that you would be looking for a new job! Frankly, Frank-ly, I need a job with a little more security. But, come to think of it, few jobs seem to be permanent, any more. Like cabinet officers. of-ficers. If you think they are permanent, just remember Earl Butz. Or television stars with ratings trouble. Just think of all the insecure people there are still around. Well, I can relax a little longer, since I am neither a politician or football coach -and quite probably, I never will be.
