ACHS Marching Band ca 1980



2008-10-12 - Downtown Columbia, KY - Photo From the Doyle Lloyd collection.
Doyle Lloyd of Adairband.com found this Linda Waggener photo from and old Columbia, KY, Daily Statesman newspaper. He didn't tell the date, but the inset puts the time in the early 1980s, during the Reign of the late Good Mayor Coy Downey. With him is one of the all time respected civic leaders, the late Bill Walker. There have been a lot of changes in Columbia since that time. Barger Insurance is now moved to another quadrant of the Square, and Vision Communication is now in that building. The vacant lot was owned by the Bank of Columbia and was later sold to the Adair County Fiscal Court and is the site of the Adair Annex, dedicated to the memory of Bill Walker. In the far background is the old WPA building which once housed the County Garage, and importantly, was once the Greyhound bus station--maybe was then--where Mrs.Tarter sold tickets for the twice daily trips to Louisville and points in between on a route through Campbellsville, Lebanon, Springfield, and Bardstown. The Adair Regional Jail had not be built at the time. The photographer is now a city official herself, a Columbia City Councillor, and is still taking photographs, but now for the 24/7/365 ColumbiaMagazine.com. Comments, corrections, identification of performers would be appreciated.

Letter: Reader enjoys Chris Bennett river trip narrative

About: Rivermen of the Cumberland Chapter 8, by Chris Bennett

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

I have enjoyed reading these stories. I hate to see the last chapter written. I love the history lessons that are given in the writings. This paper has the best articles and the prettiest pictures of any paper around.

s/Maury E. Lewis

Thanks. So many have commented about the stories by this talented Columbia historian. We are so happy you took the time to recognize Chris Bennett's work. Maybe it will encourage him to write many more books. We're hoping to see more great things from him. We hope many will drop by Columbia Music Center 503 Greensburg ST, Columbia, KY and let them know Chris Bennett's work is appreciated. And thanks for the comment on CM. -EW

Alan W. Reed identifies small Green River snake in picture

About: Green River Serpent among mussel shells

By Alan W. Reed, aquatic biologist

The snake photo appears to me to be that of Natrix, or Queen Snake. It is a crayfish and fish eater...totally harmless, and whose presence is an indicator of decent quality water. They can get quite large and take on markings of poisonous snakes.

Rev. Joey N. Welsh. Persistence

ANOTHER ANGLE: the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor
Reprinted from October 22, 2006

By the Rev. Joey N. Welsh
E-Mail: joey_n_welsh@hotmail.com
A CENTENARY CELEBRATION OF PERSISTENCE
In the Bible the concept of persistence is a double-edged blade; it can slice either toward the very positive or the very negative aspects of faith and behavior. In his farewell speech Samuel, Old Testament prophet and leader, imparted advice to all of Israel (I Samuel 12:24-25), But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you. Yet if you persist in doing evil, both you and your king will be swept away." (NIV)
