Bluffton Public Library's October calendar has lots to offer patrons. Here's the schedule:
Tutor Me Paperless returns in October. On Wednesdays the 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd, the library will offer basic tutoring for word processing, internet, email, database research, eBook, tablets, and more.

There’s a song by Arlo Guthrie “You Can Get Anything You Want At Alice’s Restaurant.”
While, no relation to Arlo, Ada’s Gus Guthrie’s Ada Flea Market is sort of like Alice’s Restaurant.
Gus says that there’s something for everyone at Ada Flea Market. Located at 111 N. Main St., Ada, the market is open Thursdays from noon to 5 p.m., and Fridays and Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Icon viewers are invited to an open meeting of the Heirloom Antique Club at 7:30 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 7, in the Bluffton town hall.
Anne Stratton, speaker and antique appraiser, will talk about the Confederate prisoners of the Civil War camp on Johnson's Island, Marblehead, Ohio.
Persons attending are also invited to bring one or two antiques for an appraisal. Please RSVP to Jo Edwards at 419-358-8341 or Sheila Niswander at 419-358-0394. Feel free to leave a recorded messages.
