Mark Willis recalls using Jeffries Building fire escape

About: Downtown Details: Fire Escape

To ColumbiaMagazine.com

Back in the 80's, I locked myself upstairs in the old Jeffries Building by accident. I was on the second floor back behind Dr. Randall's office in some rooms that we had set up some weight lifting equipment in when this happened. I went out the window that is at the top of the steps of this fire escape and started down it. It very slowly started to go down till I was all the way down and on the sidewalk, then it very slowly went back up to it where it was to begin with.

Writer has no children, but urges vote for tax for the kids

About: The difference $21 per person per year can make

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

I've never been blessed with children, but that doesn't mean I don't love watching them grow. I am more than willing to help them in anyway I can. They are our future. We should be proud of our county and our children! We all have nieces, nephews and grandchildren. There is nothing no more precious then our kids. Like I said, I don't have any, but I love them everyone. So people, please reconsider this tax and vote for it!

Wayne and I were down at the big barn Saturday and look what we found. This adorable little kitten!

He/she doesnt seem to belong to any of our neighbors and is too young to have traveled very far on his/her own, that leaves me to conclude that this is a dumped kitty.

CWC: Everyone should pay something
to support the society in which they live


CWC: Is it fair for everyone to have to pay for better school building?

Commentary by Robert Stone

My first inclination was to say that this letter was most un-Christian but not everyone is a Christian. But it espouses a very unfriendly lifestyle. Does the writer think that nothing will ever happen to him where help from someone will be necessary? And won't he want that help to be from someone who has been trained to give the best help?

School started after Labor Day in 1962, writer thinks

About:Writer clarifies age of Col Casey School It is 48 years old

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

Seems like school didn't start, back then, until after Labor Day, in September. I believe the CWC first held classes starting in the fall of 1962. It would be interesting to see if the Adair County News had a photo and/or story to share about it's opening.
