JIM: News from various points, February 14, 1912 There was skase, mighty skase news from Columbia, almost none. But the correspondents from the farflung backbone communities of Adair and Russell Counties had plenty to report during the harsh Valentine weather from idyllic Gradyville, from beautiful Joppa, from the mercantile center of Cane Valley, from Absher long before it Egypt, from industrial Milltown, from enlighened Nell, where educational opportunities were advancing, from even then thriving Glens Fork, and it's nearby competitor, Fairplay; from Big Elm, a community in turmoil in search of a missing citizen; from Rowe's Cross Roads over the The County; and from the Capitol CIty of The County - Jamestown, Russell County, sad word of suffering from a bone felon. Compiled by JIM A century ago, Adair County was a busy place despite being in the grasp of a prolonged cold spell. These tidbits are from the February 14, 1912 edition of the News. Over in Gradyville territory, a telephone line had just been completed to the far away Land of Weed; the flouring mill was back operation after being down a month or thereabout for repairs; Mr Geo. H. Nell was engaged in prizing his tobacco for the Louisville market; and the cold weather was providing "plenty of ice...of the best quality for summer use." (To give some idea of how cold it was, a front page item noted that in Columbia alone, Miller & Miller, W.H. Wilson, Hugh Richardson and the brothers Sandusky had put up over 600,000 pounds of ice for summer.)

Carol Perkins. Loving Tribute to a very lively Maltese, Fluffy Fluffy exacts high respect, luxury from human associates - and many indulgences. He barks a lot. He insists on special favors and respect for his territory, which is anywhere he wants to be. But he's a smart dog. He talks. He's a guard dog. He guards against aerial invasions of the bird kind. He's a demanding, sometimes vexing dog, with meddlesome ways. But when Carol Perkins is asked if she'd give him away, she answers the question with a question. Do you give away a child because he drives you crazy? Pet owners will understand and agree 150% Carol Perkins columns are regular features on SUNDAYS with CM By Carol Perkins Wanna dog? A cute little dog that ignores commands, thrives on intimidating visitors, and barks at insects on the porch railing. A dog that yelps for treats the moment I walk into the kitchen and does not stop until he gets what he wants. A dog who does not want his master talking on the phone and to show his dislike, stands with tail wagging and barks a harsh directive to hang up the phone and give him attention. Does anyone else own such a dog? Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2012-02-12 07:24:59 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Carol Perkins
Chuck Hinman: IJMA No. 138. Coyote hunts in the olden days It's Just Me Again No. 138, by Chuck Hinman: Coyote hunts in the olden days The next earlier Chuck Hinman column is: Chuck Hinman: IJMA 313 : Wardrobe mania By Chuck Hinman One of the haunting memories of my childhood is the eerie sound of a pack of coyotes howling in the night. I have no memory of hearing coyotes in the day time; all are of hearing them after we had gone to bed. It was difficult to pinpoint where their plaintive cry was coming from or how many were in the pack. Both man and beast listened with a curious uneasy interest when coyotes howled. Our collie dog, Sport, whined softly and uncomfortably when coyotes were doing their thing. I will never forget that sound.
