— Joshua Harrington tries out a refurbished laptop computer at the Gentry Public Library on Dec. 22 while Gentry librarian Darla Threet looks on.

Harrington was given the laptop by the Gentry Lions Club as a part of its program or refurbishing used computers and giving them to students who don't have one. The laptop, donated by George Alexander of Gravette, was supplied with a wireless card and updated operating system and given to Harrington just before Christmas.

Threet recommended Harrington as a good candidate to receive the computer. Anyone wishing to donate a computer to the project may call 233-0081.
