News of murder of Sarah B. Hart revives rules lived by in city Although violent crime has not been as big a factor here and it's easy to let down guard, the tragedy this week is a reminder that terrible crimes can happen, even here. Children should be taught self protection measures also. It's a fine line to do so, and not live in fear everyday either Jennifer Parker writes By Jennifer Parker I totally agree with Prof. Dan Phillips. I was born and grew up the largest part of my life in big city areas of California; moved to Adair Co., KY almost 18 years ago. When I arrived I still lived with the same "safety" rules I left California with and it was difficult to imagine not having to peer under my car or into the interior before getting into it, or having my keys ready in hand, to jab someone's eye out if necessary-for example.

The Hill: (Jamestown Hill) as it was commonly known Life was special growing up on Jamestown Hill, especially for the babies of the family. In those days, the worst thing that could happen to a kid was to have someone tell a parent about misbehavior - it meant, for the older kids, some stern, sometimes harsh discipline. But for the babies of the families - Joe Pyles and Ralph Roy Waggener fit that description - even their great Finis Pyles' Studebaker pickup v. E.P. Waggener's Chevrolet pickup truck race around Graded Hill did not get them into nigh enough trouble with Finis and E.P. to satisfy older sibs - and it happened when they were about 10 years old. Some memories of growing up on Jamestown Hill for Father's Day, including names of some of Jamestown Hill kid-dom great times and names. -CM By Ed's little brother, Ralph Roy Waggener Growing up on the hill was special. I had 2 brothers and 3 sisters and I was referred toas the baby because I was the youngest. Our house was the main meeting place for allchildren of all ages because of the spread of the Waggener Clan's ages.
