Feedback: It is Putman, not Putnam County Tennesseans have it all wrong! Resident corrects a matter of great import to the Putman County community of Adair County, KY Dear Ed: I really enjoy reading Jason Harmon's stories about the history of Adair County, particularly Burton Ridge. But one thing I just had to comment on was his spelling and perhaps pronunciation of the community in which I live. You see it may be "Putnam" in Tennesssee, but here in Kentucky, it's "Putman." Ask anyone who lives here also known as Allen Schoolhouse RD and they will tell you the same.

First National gets bank contract Approval of transfer of 14 students from CWC to ACES balances classes. Brenda Mann re-appointed board treasurer. No action on track situation, but board members hope cross country course can be constructed, in-house work can be done to make at home competition possible. Possibility of late fall access via section of bypass By Ed Waggener The Adair County Board of Education voted to give the photography contract for elementary and high school photographs after service of the low bidder, Wilderness Studios of Glasgow, was questioned by Principal Patty Jones and others at the meeting. The contract with Wilderness had been included in the Board's long list of "Consent Agenda" items which usually have very little discussion at the meeting. In the Thursday, June 21, 2007, meeting, 21 of the boards 31 agenda items were in the consent agreement, including everything from approval of the minutes of the May meeting, to really big items such as the awarding of the food service bids for the 2007-2008 school year.

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: on The Runaway Rabbit ANOTHER ANGLE: the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor From The Hart County News-Herald, May 22, 2005 By The Rev. Joey N. Welsh SMALL BOOK, BRIEF LIFE, BIG MEANING When my boys were young I read a lot of books to them. Most of them I dont even remember. One book for small children does stand out in my memory, though. I remember it not because I read it to my oldest son, I recall it because it was the first book he read to me from cover to cover in those early days when he was just becoming fascinated with his ability to decipher the printed word. The book was Runaway Bunny, by Margaret Wise Brown. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2007-06-24 08:00:28 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Books
Tom Chaney, June 24, 2007: On Kentuckian Edward F. Prichard Book Review: The Register of the Kentucky Historical Society By Tom Chaney ORAL HISTORY--behind the scene I have never been a member of the Kentucky Historical Society. I'm not bragging. In fact, I am a bit ashamed of the fact. The Society does good works -- too myriad to mention here. Their journal is a great resource for those interested in Kentucky history. Ann Matera came into The Bookstore on her way from the post office the other day and dropped a 2006 issue of The Register of the Kentucky Historical Society on the round table with some remark that it was too big to read. One reason I haven't joined the society is that she lets me read her copies of The Register.
