Agent Jackson reports in on totem pole "But she's solved the mystery. The totem pole is at Ricky and Mitzi Bault's House. And her brother in law, James Brockman, has just sent in the story of the Totem Pole's creation in an art class in 1969. It has a 33 year run in the public eye, and it remains in excellent shape with its current curators. Patricia Jackson writes: Oops...sorry Ed! Didn''t mean to let anything slip...but now we have to change our secret passwordphrase; how about something like: 'don't blame us..it's not our 'bault'? Heehee...I now turn this mission over to the head agent, which would be you; and I will await further instructions.

JIM: Pvt. John S. McQueary 1900-1918 Greg Burton's announcement in CM REUNIONS Re about the gathering of Clan MacQuarrie/McQueary came to mind when I saw the following announcement about Private John S. McQueary - JIM By "Jim" (From the Adair County News, May 24, 1921) Arrived from FranceThe August 7, 1918 News had carried this brief notice: "A message reached here Monday afternoon from the Adjutant General, and directed to James McQueary, stated that his son, John S. McQueary, had been killed in action." The Registration of Veterans' Graves for Adair Co. gives two entries for John S. McQueary, each giving the date of death as 7-18-1918 and the place of burial as Cross Road Cemetery at Christine. No entry was found for his marker in any of the volumes of Cemeteries of Adair County. Pvt. McQueary's death certificate, issued in New Jersey at the port of debarkation of his remains, gave his birth date as January 27, 1900; his grade as Private; and stated he was a member of Company L, 28th Infantry. - "Jim There is mention of a "Cross Road Cemetery" in the article. If anyone has information about its location or its present day name, if different, we'd love to hear of it at CM for another list we're interested expanding, cemeteries with street and number for venues.

Epicurean Kentuckian: A Miracle Whip man, Ben Finn, speaks up Ben Finn's father introduced him to one of the finest sandwiches ever made. It has the requisite, Miracle Whip, but there are surprise elements, and he calls it the 'Adair Co. BLT, w/o the B or L' and, with a suggestion which should be on every menu in Adair County by law: Wash down with ice cold milk' -CM Ben Finn writes: Yes,I m a Miracle Whip man too;was raised on it.Your description of the ham sandwich was dead on. Dad introduced me to a great sandwich made with Miracle Whip that doesn't sound too good but I attest it's one of the finest summer sandwiches ever made. In between two slices of either white or wheat bread, spread peanut butter on one slice and a generous slather of Miracle Whip on the other. Slice a good, ripe homegrown tomato and put a couple slices in between to complete the sandwich. Wash down with ice cold milk. It's sorta the Adair Co.
