HOW YOU CAN TRACE
YOUR FAMILY ROOTS
This
book tells you exactly how to go about searching for YOUR family
roots. How to get started, keep records, write for all kinds of
documents and records, and much more! This is a must read for those
interested in finding more about their family background! A big
8x11" book by Ron Playle.
Very easy to read and understand,
this valuable guide will provide a handy reference for years.
There is something very interesting
and fascinating about tracing
your family "Foots." Most of us would like to know from whence we
came. who our ancestors were, and how they lived. The thing that
makes it so interesting is the search to find our family history.
If all we had to do was pick up a book and read all about it, it
wouldn't be nearly as fascinating. However, that's not the problem,
as most of us don't have famous ancestors with books about them.
It shows you how to trace your family
history with very little cost, and have loads of fun doing it. Most
people don't realize that there are huge depositories of public and
private records and books in this and other countries that go back
several hundred years...everything from births, marriages, deaths,
census records, land deeds, military records, etc. Most of these
sources can be searched by yourself, free, or you can write
and get photocopies for a small fee.
As you start to put together bits and
pieces of the past to form a
picture of your ancestors, you will find it a very interesting and
rewarding experience. As you follow the story of your ancestors as
they emigrate from one place to another, experience hardships,
achievements, loves, births, deaths, etc., it will be as fascinating
as anything you've seen on TV .or in the movies. SEND FOR YOUR BOOK

FUN WITH MANIKIN
STUDIES
A fun and instruction book in art with a
series of different figures and poses which you fill in and
finish. Follow the simple instructions and before you know it, you
know how to draw figures amazingly.
A really fun wan to learn how to
draw. Kids and adults alike can benefit from the drawing techniques.
For the beginner in art, with a taste
and possibly a talent for figure drawing, this little book will
prove to be a welcome companion and instructor.
In drawing or painting a figure, the first step is to outline, in
simple lines, the position and movement of the figure.
That is done just as simply as possible, and as you will see in the
numerous manikin sketches in this book. Any conceivable position,
pose or action can thus be outlined.
Then, the artist draws the features, the hands and feet, also any
clothes that are indicated. Finally, the artist adds the finishing
touches - the last, detailed, careful touches, shading and
accessories to the figure.
The first few pages of this book will show how it is done.
Thereafter, there are a series of manikin studies, each in a
different position, which the student artist can use as the
beginning for a finished drawing.

"If your ambition is from the heart, you will choose to live your
life your own way. Since you are not in competition with anyone, you
cannot lose, and you cannot hurt anyone. The world will become a
better place just because you are contented to be you only, and not
somebody else. Many of the world's troubles are caused by people who
are discontented, people who are dissatisfied with being themselves,
people who always expect more from everything."
By
William Sunners. You can create and sell crosswords of all kinds,
including puzzles for children, rebuses and acrostics as shown in
this hardcover book.
