Being fit: Sedentary lifestyles change everything Comments re article 64698 Carol Perkins I have joined the world of physical fitness By Linda Marcum Waggener Good luck to Carol with her tracking, it's supposed to be very helpful. I learn that over and over each time I track exercise and suddenly realize how much I don't do yet!! My very trim Mom and I were discussing exercise one day and the differences in childhood habits. Dad brought home our first television when I was in grade school and it was the first thing my brother and I did when we got in from school, grab a snack and be still in front of the entertainment. In comparison, Mom said that when she was child needing an after school snack, she climbed a pear tree or apple tree or cherry tree and snacked. Then she followed her older siblings around the farm "bugging them," moving along with their work on chores, exercising her limbs and her mouth which they always teased her about. With today's sedentary lifestyles, I guess it takes something like a FitBit to help us see how much is yet to be done. - Linda 2014-01-19 11:54:33 | Comments | Printable version
Forest F. Harvey: Harveys have been in education for many years Forest Harvey's father Fred Harvey was a minister, his mother Mary a teacher. Memories of her career are recounted in this fascinating column: From earning a lifetime teaching diploma from Lindsey Wilson College, to having two Greenup County students drafted out of eight grade for service in World War II, to dangerous situations where Mary Harvey was stabbed (once at Rocky Hill School in Adair County), and other incidents similar to those in the memory banks of many retired educators in Kentucky. He writes now from retirement in Florida. By Forest F. Harvey "A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." - Henry Adams If you have read some of my articles you know that my mother, Mary Abston Harvey, taught school for 24 years in Kentucky. Her last year at Lindsey Wilson College she was awarded a lifetime Teaching Certificate. My grandfather, Abner Harvey, was elected School Trustee. He "placed" her in Rocky Hill School in Adair County, for $65 a month, where she taught for two years. Then she taught in Wayne, Green, Rowan, and Clinton counties. In Keyhoe, Greenup County, during world War Ii, my father, Reverend Fred Harvey, was teh pastor of a church and my mother was the teacher of the school. It was said in the area that if you wanted to get religion or an education, you had to get it from Fred or Mary Harve. She had 65 students - first grade through eighth grade. There she had two boys who were drafted to the military out of the eighth grade.
