Mr. O.E. Huddle had just been elected as superintendent of the Columbia city schools; Dr. Mercer announced the schedule for typhoid fever inoculations; and Ben Green, manager of Lerman's, and Tom Brown, owner & pharmacist of Brown's Drug Store, headed up a drive to get a Chamber of Commerce "or some similar body" established in Columbia.

Carol Perkins: Jinxed or Careless Previous Column: Father's Day By Carol Perkins If there is such a thing as being jinxed, I think I must be. I'm embarrassed to tell of other weird things that have happened to me, but I can't keep from sharing. I am one who keeps "stuff" around me with the intention of moving. My under-the-counter bike was against my desk to the right of my computer. It was once under my computer, but I quickly figured out that pedaling and typing simultaneously was impossible. As I was standing on my tiptoes, adding a few books to the shelf above the desk and leaning over this machine, I never thought I was in danger. When I put my toes down, I must have leaned my left leg into the metal part of the pedal. Suddenly, the pain shot through my body like I had been hit with an arrow (as if I know what that feels like) and blood ran down my leg. I yelled for Guy.
