Comment on the long standing Blair/Stephens debate Pat Blair About: Great Dogs of Adair Co KY 2009-08-06 21:26:33 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
JRTs, intelligent dogs that they are, need good owners Peggy Fudge writes about Is Jack Russell Stephens the smartest dog in Adair Co I really enjoyed reading about Jack. Like most JRTs, he's not just trainable, he's intelligent. I hope people will understand that a thinking dog needs an owner who is willing to spend a lot of time developing that potential, whether it is performing tricks or understanding politics. Richard has obviously put in the effort to bring out the best in Jack. Dogs left to their own devices will, without appropriate training, find something to entertain themselves-digging, barking, roaming, or being destructive. Please know that your dog wants to be with you and have something fun to do. Spending time training him fulfills both, and results in a dog that is pleasant to be around, not to mention politically astute. -Peggy Fudge 2009-08-06 14:23:10 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
Chris Curley going to Braves should inspire local kids Allen Owens writes concerning: CU Tigers third baseman signs to Atlanta Braves This should be an inspiration to all Little League baseball players in our area. Just to think that a student at a small university in the South Central Kentucky can make it to the bigs should inspire all of our Little leaguers. Congrats to Chris, I will be rooting for him!! Too bad he did not sign with the Chicago Cubs, but I guess we can't have all the good players. Allen Owens 2009-08-06 13:37:55 | Comments | Printable version
Is Jack Russell Stephens the smartest dog in Adair Co.? Richard Stephens thinks so. Thinks Jack could match wits with the any dog and some people Click on headline for story plus photos By Ed Waggener Anyone who knows Richard Stephens knows he doesn't go in for any nonsense. He's that way about work. About education. About his politics, and his dog. He puts Jack ahead of the likes of Richie Janes border collie, of Tommy Grider's German shepherd with two college degrees, and even the legendary Old Raymond, who used to take calls on the telephone to come and pick up herds of cattle.

State mandated new elementary grading system Patty Jones, Principal, CWC, comments about: tephen Caldwell dislikes new grading system Please note that the state, not the school district, has made the decision that primary grades (K-3) must use an alternate progress reporting system and may not give traditional "grades." The new system is simply replacing the former progress marking system which was less clear as to a child's true levels of progress. Students in the formative early years of learning are monitored on their levels of progress and development not on a pass/fail level. You can get more information at any of the county's three elementary schools.-Patty Jones, Principal, Col. Wm. Casey Elementary School, 220 Gen.
