L-- Elementary's Ladies and Junior Lehi Library News By CLAUDIA SMART Take a moment and think back to when you were in the first grade. The little girl in front of you has just finished her turn, and now the teacher calls on you. Eagerly you stand, book braced in hand, and read to the class, "See David run." It was a powerful moment. There was no doubt about it. You could read words! The world was yours. As we savor the richness reading has brought to our lives, it is hard to believe that nearly 27 million Americans cannot read and understand simple texts, signs and directions well enough to function in everyday life. This problem costs our nation more than $224 billion every year. Fortunately, the Lehi City Public Library is involved in the effort to combat illiteracy, along with the American Library Association, the Coalition for Literacy and the Advertising Council Incorporated. And you can do something, too. This year you can celebrate reading and libraries. How? Make all your gifts books. Read a poem aloud every night before supper. Read the newspaper every day. Subscribe to a magazine you've always wanted. Watch one hour of TV less a day and use the time to read. Go to the library twice a month and tke out a book on a subject you know nothing about. Make sure everyone in your family has a library card. Pants, Skirts, Blouses, Sweaters Values to $28 Despite the frightening numbers functionally illiterate people, most Americans can and do read. 1985 is National Library April Week. Now is the perfect time to recapture the power and pleasure of reading. It's time to reaffirm ourselves as "A Nation of of 14-2- Readers." 2 All Community School begins this week Community School classes for the spring term will begin this week in the Lehi area.
