JIM - Mrs. Berg Visits Columbia: The Rest of the Story "And thus is the story of the young agnostic who, shortly before leaving Columbia, spoke to the News, in a charming Garrison Keillor / Powder Milk biscuit sort of way: "The hack ride from Campbellsville over here caused me to think that Columbia was an out of the way place, and I feared the meeting would a failure, but after seeing the town and becoming acquainted with many of the residents, I knew it would be a success. Why, you have a city and your people have city ways. I have never been in a community where I found more intelligence. Every body is educated, even the small boys and girls.

Betsy Fausnaugh comments on county's surplus sale Betsy Fausnaugh writes: Just was wondering where the sale of these items was listed in advance.
