Jeb, Central Office mascot, makes command appearance
 2017-12-19 - Adair County Central Office Conference Room, 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com. No glory hound, he: Jeb the 3 lb. 4 oz. Golden Poo, made a pre-meeting appearance after appeals from the audience and a request from Dr. Pam Stephens that Jeb enter the board room. He's a favorite with all the Central Office staff; Renae Smith, the apparent Jeb Fan Club President, called Jeb the office's mascot, and an additional comment was heard about the circumstance of Jeb's situation at the Goode home, "Her son just got married and Anita got a dog." Jeb exhibited impeccable manners. One day he's won't seem so tiny. Golden Poos can reach 15-20 pounds as adults, Anita said. The King for the moment exited the room prior to the meeting. _ EW

JIM - Christmas Wish List, 19 Dec 1946
 2017-12-19 - Jamestown, KY & Columbia, KY - Photo from the collection of JIM.
After reading this Christmas Wish List Entry, see also earlier entries: JIM: Christmas Wish Lists
By JIM
For this one, I made no effort to curtail the text to cutline length. I first encountered Miss Babak's essay over a dozen years ago and it has stuck like glue to my generally teflon memory.
As Christmas 1945 approached, war time rationing had eased, peace time production had increased, and many -- most -- who served in the late conflict either were home already, on the way, or had the promise of soon being so. Merchants' shelves were well stocked, and a Christmas greeting from Southern Continental Telephone Company reminded that "For the first time since 1940, our country will enjoy a peaceful holiday season."
A most eloquent expression of the general sentiment of that long ago era, written by 16-year-old Hazel Mae Babak of near Jamestown, appeared in the November 29, 1945, edition of the Russell County News:
"Thanksgiving and Christmas
"Thanksgiving and Christmas soon will be celebrated throughout America, celebrated as never before in our lifetime for this is the year of Victory -- and Peace.
"Reverently we will give thanks for the glory so dearly bought. Gratefully our carols will rise to each of those who have not yet returned. Silently and prayerfully we will remember those who will never return. We, here at home, safe in the land we love, preserved from the ravages of war, know that this year we have cause to keep the great days sacred.
"So we return once more to the old ways and the old customs, to the family gatherings 'round the festive board, to the bounty that is ours as harvest days are over. Again the Christmas tree will glisten, the Yule logs blaze and the presents made ready for Santa's visit. Again 'Merry Christmas' will echo and re-echo as there is truly Peace on Earth, Good Will to Men.
"This should be a happy year, a year of memory forever, for this is the year of victory and peace."
"Our wish -- the wish of all us at home -- is that your Thanksgiving be the most thankful you ever had and your Christmas the merriest."
The ad for the Brown Drug Co. appeared in the December 19th edition of the News.
