Happy Tails: Hope and Trust

Dogs have a special instinct for knowing who to trust, even after they have been failed by humans. Today's Happy Tails are stories of two wonderful dogs: Buttercup, a beagle/pug mix, who is now adopted; and Kate, the prettiest cattle dog ever at Sugarfoot Farm Rescue, who has learned to trust again
The next earlier Happy Tail: Happy Tails: Every once in a while, an UN-HappyTale

By Peg Schaeffer
News from Sugarfoot Farm Rescue

Sugarfoot Farm Rescue had an Open House and Yard Sale on Friday and Saturday. We had a good turnout and I want to thank ever one who came. We adopted out a dog and potentially two cats, sold some spay/neuter certificates, and received some donations. Plus I got to visit with animal lovers which is the best part. All in all it was a successful weekend.

jon halsey

Thanks to Superintendent Reed for clarifying his earlier post.

It appears that the actual policy which applies to everyone does NOT in fact: "...prohibit... having tobacco products on campus or at school functions."

Hey Ed,

Although all the birthdays are important I found 3 very important birthdays and they are: Richard Butler (a long time hunting and fishing buddy and friend.), Pee Wee Sinclair (a longtime friend and neighbor), and Linda Waggener (a dedicated and special public servant who, through no fault of her own, has to put up with a certain husband who has a brother whose name I won't mention but just happens to own a printing company here in Columbia and is also a good friend).These are special to me and I would like to wish them each a very HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Tobacco-free Schools Policy: It means Tobacco-Free. Period

Vocational Agricultural Department will not be growing tobacco as part of its program

By Alan W. Reed, Superintendent
Adair County, KY School District

I have read the questions from some of your readers related to the Board of Education policy addressing the use of tobacco on school property. The specific policy, which went into effect yesterday, July 1, 2013, is as follows:
Policy on Use of Tobacco

The use of any tobacco product is prohibited twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, in any building and on any property owned or operated by the Board. This will apply to indoor and outdoor facilities, inside Board owned vehicles, stadiums/athletic fields and during school-sponsored trips and activities. Activities occurring before, during and after school hours, on weekends and during vacation periods are included in this prohibition.
I would hope that all Adair countians respect this policy and understand that our primary responsibility is setting positive and healthy examples for our children. In the spirit of cooperation, our Vocational Agriculture Department will not be growing tobacco as part of its program.

Adair County Schools

A Very Common Complaint

With Robert Brock protraying Mark Twain on Sunday evenings, July 7, 14, and 21, at 7pmCT, at V.P. Henry Auditorium, it was appropriate that JIM rescues this wonderful entry about Mark Twain from the history bin

By JIM

I rarely go a-journeying through the musty, dusty pages of the News these days, but I did cast a rheumy, bloodshot orb that direction today and re-encountered a wonderful little filler in the July 6, 1910 edition.

It seems (or so spake the News) that Mark Twain, during his reign as editor of the Virginia City (Nevada) Times, would on occasion spice up the paper by penning answers to fictitious questions posed by equally fictitious readers. On one occasion, an anguished note signed "Poultry" queried thus:
"Dear Editor--What is the matter with my chickens? Every morning I find two or three of them laid out cold and stiff on the hencoop door. What treatment do you advise?"
And came the straight-faced reply from the other side of Twain's mouth:
"It is plain from your letter, your hens are suffering from death. This is a very common complaint. For it we would prescribe burial."

The School Policy: Smokefree? or Tobacco Free?

Wayne Armitage sends question for Supt. Reed:
Mr. Reed: Does this mean that the school is now tobacco free or just smoke free ? Or are all the students who use smokeless tobacco are still using. The law says that you have to be a certain age to buy tobacco products. Where do all the high school students get their tobacco products ? - Wayne Armitage

Hope you find one extremely important birthday today. We did

There were 35 entries this morning at 6:35amCT in the CM birthdays for July 2, 2013. There are five anniversaries, 18 birthdays, and 12 In Memory Birthdays for today. You'll find the current list of birthdays at Birthdays, Anniversaries, and In Memory Birthdays

The list is, for many, a daily newspaper in itself. Almost every day everyone can find at least one extremely special person in it. We did. It's Linda Waggener's birthday. In EvanSpeak, an "Infinity Awesome Special Person." There are great odds you'll find infinity awesome people in your life as well.

And, even if you don't find a famiily member, there are little stories in the entries themselves, like the two sisters who share the same birthday on July 2; like the Adair County Ecology Icon who's having a birthday today, And everyday, there's the list of those who've gone on, in In Memory Birthdays - most of which have links with more about them, much written at the time of their deaths.

The list is dynamic. Growing, often during the day. If you know of someone who's having a birthday or anniversary today, someone in Adair, Casey, Cumberland, Green, Metcalfe, Russel or Taylor Counties of South Central Kentucky, why not send it now, using any Contact/Submit button. Most days, we're able to work it in on the day of the celebration. Thanks. - ED WAGGENER, 270-250-2730

JIM: Sam Randall Duvall: a man of words, a man of war

Lives of Notable Adair Countians: Sam Randall Duvall was a native of Clinton County, lived awhile in Cumberland, attended Lindsey Wilson College, and was a teacher in Adair County. He was a great orator, and was a valiant soldier in 15 battles in the worst of WWI. This biographical sketch rendered as it only can be done by JIM, gives pause to remember another life which left an indelible mark on the history of Adair County. - EW
Click on headline for complete essay.

By JIM

Sam Randall Duvall: a man of words, a man of war.

In March, 1914, Clinton County native Sam Duvall, then 25, drew mention in the News as a member of the Lindsey Wilson Training School's (Y.M.C.A.) Gospel Team. In May of that year, he and C.F. Allen, representing Lindsey's Columbia Debating Society, cleaned the collective clock of the Frogge Literary Society, represented by Marvin Perryman and Earl Williams, arguing the negative in a two-hour debate, "Resolved, That the United States would be justified, morally and politically, in abolishing the Monroe Doctrine." The following spring, the CDS, this time represented by Guy Stevenson and Messr. Duvall, again carried the day against the FLS, this time arguing the negative of the issue, "Resolved, That foreign immigration should be further restricted by an educational test."

Comment: Applauds smokefree policy; but senses overreach

Jon Halsey writes:

I applaud the policy - or most of it anyway.

However, there seems to be a bit of a overreach:
"The new policy applies to everyone, including school board employees and parents, and prohibits using or having tobacco products on campus or at school functions."
Short of bringing the TSA and their Peeping Tom machines on board, I fail to understand how they are going to enforce that part about parents not having a tin of Skoal or a pack of Mail Pouch in their jeans when they attend a Parent/Teacher conference.

If they don't intend to enforce that part of the policy then why have it in the first place?

I understand that they want to be able to address students who bring tobacco products on campus; but if that is the only aim, then edit the policy to say that.
