M & P Variety gets facelift 2012-12-04 - Public Square, Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Mary Davis, an owner of M & P Variety, modeled one of the two newly repainted and tightened benches in front of her store. The benches, which get a lot of use by customers at her store and visitors to other businesses downtown are painted red and black, the windows were painted white, and the ornamental iron was repainted to coordinate with her store and with other businesses in the 200-214 Public Square Octant. Since the work here and the renovation at Harris Law Office and adaptive restoration of the new home of Red Brick Recording, fully one-fourth of buildings facing the Square - the Western strip - is in high state of repair, and only one building is awaiting a new tenant in this strip.

Quintella Lasley sworn in as Division II board member 2012-12-04 - 1204 Greensburg Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Quinn "Tweeta" Lasley left was sworn as Adair County School Board member by Adair County Judge Executive Ann Melton this morning at the Adair County School Board Conference Room, this morning, Tuesday, December 4, 2012. She'll assume the duties of the office on the first of January, 2013, and will actually occupy the seat in the center of the photo. Two oaths were administered. The first was the historic Kentucky oath of office, which requires office holders to state they have not taken part in a duel or been a second. Mrs. Lasley had not. And this one, requiring School Board members to state under oath that they will not try to influence the hiring of any school personnel and that they understand the only hiring they actually vote on is the hiring of a Superintendent and the Board Attorney.
