On Russell wet-dry:
Truly sad that voters never had chance to really vote


About: On wet-dry: We are now living in Bible Belt

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

What is truly sad, is that the People never had a chance to really vote on the matter. The whole process was not True to begin with and the local business owners and community have missed out on having more revenue coming in to the county. I wonder if another election can/will be held.

Editor notes the success of earlier tree planting program, what trees mean to us, and shares the magic of a mid-summer's drive through Scenic Kentucky 704, with its frequent passes through the shade of tree roofs.

Editor, "Just for a Smile News," Columbia, KY

Tree Planting: On the success of Billy Joe Fudge's roadside tree planting

The trees which were planted on Campbellsville Road a few years ago by Billy Joe Fudge have at least some which are still growing, today.

As with a lot of programs started in our city, this one needs to be restarted and be made into an annual program.

About: Court panel rules for drys in Russell Co KY wetdry election

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

This is a real sad day for the residents of Russell County. It is a step back into the dark ages. So now all the residents who drink in hiding will still have to do that. All you out there know you drink and hide but are afraid to let anyone know it because someone might point a finger at you.
