Rolling Store article reminded me of home By Linda Waggener Billy Joe Fudge's article about Grissom's Rolling Store in Adair County brought back memories of the one that served my grandparent's home on our gravel road between Sulphur Well and Center, KY in northern Metcalfe County. A Mr. Honeycutt was the driver of our truck that looked very much like the description of Mr. Grissom's store, from about the same time frame, I think, mid-1950s. I can picture Grandma Alice Bell Royce Marcum's basket of eggs I'd helped her collect from the hen house held in the crook of her arm. She had it and her purse ready to trade for some supplies from his store. We'd look up into the back of the store and he'd be able to hand down what we asked for from his inventory. We'd head back into the house as he drove on toward Center. I was so curious and had to check out every item, slowing her down. She called me Meddlesomejack.

LWC gives back to the community on Malvina Farkle Day By Venus Popplewell LWC Director of Public Relations Lindsey Wilson College senior Sydney Wilson from Campbellsville, Kentucky, had never participated in the college's Malvina Farkle Day until this year. Because she has been a commuter student, Wilson said she always skipped the college's day of community service. That changed this year when Wilson was one of more than two dozen students in LWC's education program who took part in the day. "I attended the breakfast kick-off ceremony in the dining center," said Wilson who spent the morning assisting teachers at the Adair County Primary Center. "It was chaotic and loud, but it was fun to see everybody up that early and coming together to participate." Malvina Farkle Day is named in memory of a mythical Lindsey Wilson alumna and staff member who lived a life of service and fun. Classes are dismissed for the day while students spend the morning working on community service projects. The afternoon includes campus games and activities.

Farmer Appreciation Day honors farmers, their occupation From Lisa Tolliver Frankfort, KY - Commissioner of Agriculture Dr. Ryan Quarles honored Kentucky's farmers and proclaimed September 17-23, 2023, as Farm Safety and Health Week in Kentucky at a Farmer's Appreciation and Awards Day on the Capitol Lawn on Wednesday. "The greatest appreciation we can give our farmers is making sure they are safe on the job. Farmers face a number of risks in the course of their work, from machinery accidents, chemical exposure, unruly livestock, grain bin entrapment, severe weather, and many others," Commissioner Quarles said. "In Kentucky, we have made great strides to mitigate these risks to make farming safer than ever before, but accidents still happen. 'No One Can Take Your Place,' isn't just the theme for this year's farm safety and health week, it is the cost we pay when even one person is lost. Whether you are on the farm, on the road, or in the home, please take that extra step to protect yourself and those around you." The inaugural Raising Hope Farmer Appreciation and Awards Day honored farmers and the job they do, while also recognizing the risks they face in their day-to-day duties.
