Word on some of the additional things needed in Alabama

Pastor Troy Long, Jr. writes:

Ed, I recently talked to my mother who lives in south Mississippi. Some of her coworkers went to Tuscaloosa, Alabama, this past weekend to help with the relief efforts. Some of the things needed in addition to the non-perishable food items were hand-held can openers, toilet paper, paper towels, and other cleaning supplies. They are also in need of baby food, diapers, and other baby supplies. I thought I would pass this information along to those who were interested in helping.

Safety Zone 2011: ACHS takes part in mock DUI Trial

Click on headline for full story plus photo(s)

By Ellen Zornes

Friday morning, April 22, and Monday morning, April 25, Adair County High School juniors participated in the seventh annual "Safety Zone DUI Awareness. The idea for "Safety Zone" came about as an effort to demonstrate to our driving students the importance of driving safely and how alcohol and other drugs can so severely impede their driving abilities.

Young drivers just don't seem to understand the magnitude that driving entails and how even one drink of an alcoholic beverage or the use of other drugs can have such disastrous consequences. It is our hope through "Safety Zone" to get that point across. This year we added a segment about the importance of not texting while driving.

Harris told the Council that, while the city supports all of the local schools activities, he said, "This is academics, this is the core. This is what it's all about."

Councillor Linda Waggener moved that the stipend for this year be doubled to $2,000. Her motion received a second from Councillor Robert Flowers and a subsequent 6-0 voice vote, with Councillors Craig Dean, Tony Grider, Jim Hadley and June Parson joining in unanimous affirmation.

Thinks Walmart should change its policies

Comments re photo 40212 Bob Barnes tornado relief truck moved from WalmartAlberta G. Janes writes:
I think Columbia Walmart should be ashamed, and people should shop some place else for a while, give them something to think on. They might change their policies. -Albert G. Janes
We understand your feelings. It was unfortunate. But the fact remains, whether you like Walmart or not, this one is a huge part of the Columbia area economy. Not shopping there because of the incident may prove a point, but at the expense of our good neighbors and friends who work there. Bentonville might hardly notice. -EW

Reader hopes $4,500 collected won't be spent at Walmart

Comments re article 44080 In regards to Mr Barnes moving his relief effort from Walmart parking lotSue M. Smith writes:
I just hope the $4500 that was collected will not be spent at a Walmart! -Sue M. Smith
CM has learned for sure, that $2,000 originally designated for the Columbia Walmart was given to Bob Barnes to spend anywhere else but the Columbia Walmart or any Walmart after the incident. However, we would like to note that if the Columbia Walmart is punished, in the end, it is our neighbors and friends who work there who pay for it. As they do when there is a theft at the store, as our local Walmart employees pay for it when carts are abused or the community does not help keep the store and grounds clean. (We noticed that Columbia area people do just that; they treat the property as if it were their own.) No doubt this is bad PR for the local store. Hope there is a learning lesson and all can be forgiven. -EW

Reader files complaint with Walmart corporate office

Tells Bentonville it's bad juju to do what they did (to Bob Barnes)
Sheila Owens writes:
After reading about how Walmart made Bob Barnes move his vehicle when he was there trying to collect donations to help with the relief effort in Alabama, I called Walmart's corporate office and filed a complaint. I told them what had happened and that they could go online to this website to see the story also.

I told them that I did understand that Walmart has policies regarding that sort of thing, but this is a small town and the parking lot would not have been teeming with customers at that time of day so it would not have hurt them to let him park there rather than have to park the other side of the parking lot. I told them what he was doing was for a good thing and that it was just bad PR to handle it the way they did not to mention they lost sales as well.

I told them we were a small community but we worked hard for the money we spend at Walmart and it is just bad juju to do what they did. Corporate did say they will contact the store manager about the situation. -Sheila Owens
