Ken Hill: Col. Casey lived in different times Colonel William Casey was not perfect, he was human. He was a product of his times, with all the good and bad that came from the period. The Chinese Philosopher, Confucius said, "If your plan is for one year, plant rice; if your plan is for 10 years, plant trees; if your plan is for 100 years, educate children." Colonel William Casey undoubtedly had a 100 year plan, and Lindsey Wilson College and Megan Hadley are both, in some ways, evidence of his success. Written in response to: Comment: New School. New Name. New Beginning by Megan Hadley By Ken Hill Personal Commentary Thanks again to Columbia Magazine for providing the perfect "street corner", from which varying points of view can be voiced without shouting. I enjoyed reading Hadley's opposing commentary and found it reasoned and well-written. I would like to clarify a few points that may have been misunderstood in my original post. I NEVER stated that, "Casey traded Indian scalps (which were in high fashion)". While evidence to the contrary may exist, I am unaware of Casey's involvement in this grisly practice. The recorded story of Casey's killing of the "Last hostile Indian" did not end in a scalping, as I recall. Historically, the vast majority of "scalping" was a Native American endeavor. I only mentioned this practice in the article to highlight the significance of George Rogers Clark's assaults on the British Forts to the north of Kentucky, which greatly curbed the practice.

Comment: New School. New Name. New Beginning For a New Name: 'I do not have a suggestion for a name that suits a welcome to cultural diversity, but I know that clinging onto the history of a Colonel whose legacy includes the 'triumph' of wiping out populations of Native Americans from their own soil, is not a way to celebrate this.' - MEGAN HADLEY. By Megan Hadley Personal commentary With the structure of an entirely new building, our small town is finally given an opportunity to apply emphasis to a new beginning, by accepting people as they come and welcoming them. Having lived in Columbia my entire life I received the first four years of primary education within the classrooms of Colonel William Casey.

Opinion: Thinks Fiscal Court should rethink animal adoption rates By Lois Cunningham Personal commentary The Adair County Fiscal Court needs to rethink the cost of adopting a pet from Green River Animal Shelter. It is the highest of any county around here. You can go to Glasgow and get a cat that has already been spayed or neutered has its shots, and has an id chip implanted for $25.00. In Bowling Green you can adopt a dog or a cat with the same things for $50.00 and on special days or for animals that have been there 30 days or longer the price drops; and yes, I did say for 30 days or longer.

Kudos to veterinarians who offered to lower the costs But writer thinks Fiscal Court's actions mean more animal deaths Peg Schaeffer writes: I totally agree with Misty. We have just signed a death warrant for all of the animals at the shelter. GRAWL is supposed to be Green River Animal Welfare League - how is this for the animals' welfare? Kudos to the veterinarians who have offered to lower the costs of their services but I don't think they'll be very busy spaying and neutering the animals of the shelter, since even less people will be able to adopt at such high prices. Please - if you feel the need to surrender your pets think twice. If you have pets please keep them safe so they don't stray. The most important - spay and neuter your pets so overpopulation will no longer be a problem. - Peg SchaefferComments re article 54432 Comment Spay Neuter Program 2012-09-14 04:00:56 | Comments | Printable version Birthdays and Anniversaries for September 14 Business Birthday, Tray's Garden Chinese Restaurant, Columbia, KY (1994) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Anniversary, Jimmie Dale and Kathy Cox (1973) | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Ben David Sapp | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Chonda Hodges | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Darrell Coffey | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Harrison Knifley | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Ja'Vyan Hawkins | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, JoAnn Steinhilber | (Updates/Corrections) Happy Birthday, Kotila G.
