Julia Conover celebrates 95th birthday Julia Conover celebrated her 95th birthday on Sunday, February 28, 2010, with a party at the Royal Manor Apartments where she lives. About 45 family members and several friends attended the big celebration. Julia is amazing as she can remember things I can't even remember and she has seen a lot of changes in Columbia in her lifetime. She use to live in the big white house behind the Old Grade School (which is now Adanta) on Woody Avenue but in the last few years has moved to Royal Manor Apartments but she still lives on her own and gets around well and like I said, remembers everything. We wish her many more birthdays. --Diane Benningfield 2010-03-01 12:18:16 | Comments | Printable version

Poem Critique by BJ Fudge: Water Cure by Dr. J.T. Jones About: 100 years ago: The Unlamented Death of Sam C. Lawrence By Billy Joe Fudge I have just a few comments about Dr. J. T. Jones' beautiful poem, "Water Cure."
CM Policy: Nice Critiques, such as this one, of original literary works on ColumbiaMagazine.com are welcome. However, as we do not have a College Education License, we'll limit the critiques to that of the orginal work. Sometimes, universities offer Criticism of the works of Shakespeare, criticism of that critic of Shakespeare, criticism of the critic of the critic of the works of Shakespeare, ad infinitum and ad nauseum, until it causes serious brain spin, flinging bits gray matter into outer space; so we can't have that on our conscience. It goes without saying at un-nice criticism won't be tolerated. -EW 2010-03-01 03:21:43 | Comments | Printable version
