Tri-County Library gets tiny tot computer
Monitor Staff Reports
MABANK–Tri-County Library is the proud owner of The Early Literacy Station, an all-in-one learning center of children, library director Claire Stout explained.
The cost prevented the library from purchasing the system, but an anonymous donor stepped up and made its acquisition possible.
The early literacy station will benefit the library’s young patrons, ages kindergarten through third grade.
The station includes 60 top-rated developmental bilingual (Spanish) titles, especially for kids.
The computer is a fun learning experience, one that will contribute to success in the children’s school years and for a lifetime of learning. It has a touch screen, as well as, a tiny mouse for easy operation.
Bring your small children and their library card, or if they don’t have a card, get one and let them experience how much fun they can have learning new things.
Library hours are 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Fridays; 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesdays and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays.
Remember Whisper is waiting for you at the library, 132 E. Market Street, Mabank.

Come Adopt Us At The Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake
The domino effect is a chain reaction that occurs when a small change causes a similar change nearby, which then will cause another similar change, and so on. My name is Domino, and I got my name not only because I’m black and white like a domino tile, but also because my outgoing, cheerful personality causes my doggie roommates to smile. This also causes our human friends to smile, which even causes the kitties in the cat room to smile. I am an 8-month-old male Pointer/Terrier mix. I love children, other dogs, and even get along great with kitties. I’ve had all my shots and am ready to be adopted. If you’d like to experience the domino effect, I am sure to put a forever smile on your face when you take me to my forever home. I currently live with a foster family, so if you would like to meet me, call my friends at the Humane Society of Cedar Creek Lake at (903) 432-3422 to make an appointment. You can also email them at dogshsccl@yahoo.com.
