Dick ordered your THE DISINHERITED for our library, here. But he said this spring they have to buy a lot of children's books, mostly replacements of those that are getting worn and shabby.
Every spring the Public Library has their "Great 10¢ Book Sale" during which they sell all their discards for a dime. Last year I bought an old copy of Woodrow Wilson's Congressional Government. That was the first I ever read that book and I think it's a neglected document. I discussed that book with out congressman Dave Obey at a picnic last summer. He knows the book well - he's got an M.A. in political science - and he wonders how many of his collegues [sic] in Washington have even heard of the book. Dave also doubts that Reagan has ever read the Constitution of the U.S.
I took your advice and read everything I could find about Sen. Gary Hart and am now gathering support for him in northern Wisconsin. I am to be a delegate for Chippewa County at our spring Democrat district convention in April and then will be able to really get the ball rolling.
We have certainly been blessed with a mild winter this year. Here it is Feb 13, and at 7a.m. the temperature was already 34° above.
