A young man hurried into his town library. He went up to one of the old librarians and said to her eagerly. "Do you remember that you persuaded me to borrow a book about Greek history a week ago"
"Yes, that’s right. "Answered the librarian.
"Do you remember the name of the book" the young man asked. The librarian felt very proud, because she was always trying to get young people to take out books about Greek history, and she rarely found one who was willing to accept her suggestions.
"Yes, "she answered. "" Do you want to take it out again Did you think it was so interesting" "No, of course not. "Said the young man," but when I was taking it home, I met a girl on the bus, and I wrote her telephone number in the book. I want to telephone her, so please may I look at the book again"

Probably every town in the United States has a post office. Some are very small, and you may also find them in the corner of a shop. Others are large buildings. They are open five days a week and Saturday mornings. From Monday to Friday they are usually open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
If you know how much the postage is for your letter, you can buy stamps at any window. In some post offices you can buy stamps from machines. Stamps are sold at many different prices, from one cent to many dollars. If you are not sure how much postage is for your letter, you can ask the clerk. He or she will give you the stamps you need.
At a post office you can also buy postcards. A postcard is cheaper than a letter.

Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand -- he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him.
What visual artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billion possible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist.
Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies. Their choices indicate these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beauti
