Library, children go mad for science

Children show their excitement after Mentos were dropped into a liter of Coca Cola causing a chemical reaction Wednesday for the Callaway County Library's Mad Scientist Lab program. The event designed for ages 5 and older allowed children to experiment with liquids, solids and sound.
