100 Years Ago: A bit of nonsense Government positions were open: Groundhog Inspectors & Doodlebug Callers By J.D. Gee In the early part of 1907, the Kentucky legislature had in the neighborhood of 500 bills to consider, but, much to the apparent disgust of the Eddyville Herald, undue attention was given a bill that would fix Groundhog Day either as February 1st, 2nd, or the 14th, "as there is a claim laid to each of these dates." The Herald proceeded, editorial wordstrop firmly planted in the editorial cheek, to inform the Legislature that the good people of Eddyville believed the passage of the Dirt Pig Day bill to be of much more importance than the other "half a thousand" pieces of legislation before that august body.

Sycamore Springs: You can almost hear that old barn Inspired by: Scenic Cumberland Co KY: Barn picture by Johnnietta Jessie Click on headline for poetic essay with photo by Johnnietta Jessie By Cynthia Meyer Commentary from Sycamore Springs, KY One could almost hear the times in its younger year when the barn was in use. The jingle of the harness as the teams of mules hauled wagons loaded with corn in, out of the weather. Calves bawling for their mothers when separated for the first time. Hogs' vocal taunts as they anxiously await for their troughs to be filled with water or feed.

Charles Marshburn thinks CM needs a Restaurants Review Writer even suggests one; who declines, with tell-all confession of just why not, even though the job has been a lifelong ambition, a lifelong dream About: It's Just Me Again No. 077 Eating Out Ed, What about a weekly article by yourself in the Food and Wine section reviewing the finer restaurants in the area? You could rate by healthy, interesting, price, healthy, interesting, etc. Did I say healthy and interesting more than once? You could include how far you had to drive and if the fare was healthy and interesting! Since this would be under the wine category, you could also mention the beverage menu. Just a thought. s/Charles Marshburn Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2010-10-17 19:23:26 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Food

Rev. Joey N. Welsh: Autumn This essay also appeared in the Munfordville, KY, Hart County Herald, on 24 September 2006; reprinted with author permission ANOTHER ANGLE, the occasional musings of a Kentucky pastor" Autumn: Endings, beginnings, and transitions The next previous essay, Making it on the Broken Pieces By The Rev.

Whether we talk about the calendar or the weather or our own lives, some things are always coming to an end while other things are being born or renewed. In our part of the northern hemisphere fall is the time when the growing season comes to an end and the world seems to die away as winter approaches.

100 Years Ago: For Sunday, October 17 100 years ago: socials, singings, spellings, and a dinner on the ground. Adair County Sunday Singings, now a tradition, were important then, when the 'father of modern Gospel music' paid a visit to the Pellham community By "Jim" October, 1910 found Adair County farm families -- the vast majority of the populace -- in the midst of wrapping up late summer crops, sowing winter wheat, making sorghum, and generally preparing for winter. And, in addition to the usual assortment of sicknesses and mishaps reported in the News, Adair County was still in the throes of a diphtheria epidemic. Reports of school closings, deaths, near-deaths, and lingering illness from that dread disease had regularly appeared for a number of weeks by the time mid-October rolled around.
