Lee Ann Sullivan: Thinks trophies should be kept Lee Ann Sullivan writes: In regards to the silent auction of Adair County High School past trophies, this just does not seem right! Who decided what trophies or game balls were selected to be auctioned? As an Adair County High School alumni, it seems to me all trophies were the result of hard work and practice by many students through the last 50 plus years, whether it be basketball, baseball, football, track, band, FFA, or any other academic team or sport. I understand storage could be an issue, but there has to be somewhere these precious momentos could be placed. I don't think I am the only individual with these concerns. These items are a part of ACHS history and accomplishments, and should remain at the school! - Lee Ann Sullivan 2015-03-15 17:32:21 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Mike Watson: A Mighty Girl, 99 Years Ago By Mike Watson Adair County Historian The following story was carried on the first page of the Adair County News, issue of August 9, 1916. The story of a 'Mighty Girl' of the day, one willing to brave the night to help a loved one. A Paul Revere Ride--The following act of little Louise Grissom, a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Grover Grissom, in a sense, was as courageous as the ride made by Paul Revere. Louise is seven years old, and on the night of her adventure she was at the home of her grandmother, Mrs. Rachel Grissom, in this place. During the night her grandmother was taken violently ill. There was not a male person about the house, and Mrs. Grissom wanted her son, Dr. Garlin Grissom, who lives two miles out on the Campbellsville pike. He was called by phone, but Louise thought that he was too slow coming, and without telling her grandmother her intentions, she left the room at eleven o'clock, went to the stable, bridled a horse, mounted his bare back and started for the home of her uncle, but when she got in a half miles of the doctor's residence she met him, delivered her message, and the two hurrying together to the sick. Room. Do you know of another seven year old girl, at 11 o'clock at night, who would have the courage that little Louise displayed? - Adair County News, 9 August 1916.- MIKE WATSON 2015-03-15 09:22:40 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Mike Watson - History

His sons always drank the milk and although I turned up my nose at it in the beginning I learned I could drink it if it was cold.

Tom Chaney: Fragments of Deceit Of Writers And Their Books: Fragments of Deceit. Tom says you might not expect a high degree of excitement from a thriller which turns on copyright and contract law but Errors and Omissions is a keeper . This column first appeared 14 March 2010. The next earlier Tom Chaney column: Five Years and Going Around Again By Tom Chaney Fragments of Deceit The obligation one assumes when one accepts a book from a friend is magnified by at least a factor of two when one writes about that book. I know I have at least two readers, for a pair of those rare birds told me so. More than two have said so, but those two are known for their honesty. Some months ago -- perhaps years ago -- a friend motored through and flung me a book. Says he, "Read this. You'll like it." I believed him on the strength of past honesty and good judgment.
