A Christmas season visitor to the Ada Public Library bids farewell to patrons until next December. Twinkle, one of Santa's elves, spent the month in the library.
Each day Twinkle found a new location to watch patrons. And now Twinkle is ready to head back to the North Pole. He made the staff brunch for his last trick.
Accoding to the library staff: "It was so nice to have him around the library; watching and listening for all the good boys and girls. Thanks to you, we made the nice list!"

Q: What has four walls, a roof and lots of yummy stuff to eat?
A: It should be obvious, but's here's a hint: Lots of these structures were built recently at the Ada Public Library. They are called gingerbread houses.
They come in a wide range of styles and accomodations. The library allowed us to link up to the Facebook photo gallery.
Popular Ada author Lynne Scott will have a book signing from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m., Saturday, in the Ada Public Library.
Her latest novel, “Love in Small Doses,” is the story of a small town pharmacist and the changes she and the town experience when a large retailer moves in for competition.
Copies of Scott’s earlier novels will also be available for purchase at Saturday’s signing.
Scott’s previous titles are “Community Pool,” “Miranda’s Bottom,” “Chronia Polla,” and a novella, “Mr. Hurst’s Ambition.” They are listed under the authorship of Lynne E. Scott.
Now through Saturday, Dec. 13 patrons of the Ada Public Library may pay off their library fines and help others at the same time!
The program is sponsored by the ONU Women, in collaboration with the Friends of the Ada Public Library.
Here’s how it works: Patrons may pay library fines (not eligible for lost book fees) in the following manner:
1 pair of NEW kid’s shoes (no flip flops) = $5 worth of fines
1 pair of NEW gloves = $5 worth of fines
1 NEW hat or scarf = $5 worth of fines
1 pair of NEW kid’s socks = $1 worth of fines
All of the collected items will be donated to Helping Hands, a Hardin County charity.
