By Alex Englen

Frankfort, KY - This week, the Kentucky Education and Workforce Development Cabinet (KEWDC) will celebrate National Apprenticeship Week in Kentucky from November 12-17, by recognizing over 250 Registered Apprenticeship Programs that apprentice approximately 3,500 Kentuckians across the state.

"National Apprenticeship Week recognizes the unique workforce development opportunities available through registered apprenticeships," said Gov. Bevin.

Blue will likely adjust more quickly than we humans will

Sharon Whitehurst writes:
Animals have a special sort of 'knowing'-- an awareness which we sometimes tend to minimize, probably because we can't analyze it to our satisfaction. Creatures also bond deeply with their human keepers and it stands to reason that they feel loss and abandonment.

Blue will likely adjust more quickly to Ed's absence than we humans will do.

Letter: A marvelous family history

Prudence Hutchison writes:
Miss Willie Rosenbaum, beloved ACHS English teacher and my homeroom teacher, was never married. She was NOT Jim Blair's mother.

I was interested in reading about her nephew, Glenn Epperson's donation of her family heirlooms to the Trabue House. I also attended Columbia Christian Church with her as well as her sister and brother-in-law, Mrs Mabel and Mr Morris Epperson. A fine family as well.

Dave Rosenbaum has written a marvelous family history of the Rosenbaum family in Adair County. I attended Columbia Christian Church with his dad, Mr Stanley Rosenbaum and his mother, Mrs Norene Rosenbaum. They were a very fine couple.

BTW, Dave, your family surname means "red tree" in German if I am correct. --PHW
