JIM: 100 years ago - Commencement in Columbia, 1913 Activities at Lindsey Wilson were over a week long This installment of Commencement in Columbia covers activities at Lindsey Wilson. Next installment will be Commencement in Columbia, 1913, Part II: The Graded School By JIM Simply put, anyone in Columbia who complained of "nothing to do" in the middle weeks of May 1913 lived under a rock -- a very large, heavy rock -- especially considering the cornucopia of events featured free admission. The festivities began with the annual Lindsey Wilson Field Day on Friday, May 9th and continued through the commencement service for the "County Graded School" class of 1913 on Thursday, May 22nd, with a whirlwind of activities between.

Adair County authors: Albert C. Wyckoff A chance to learn more about Adair's rich literary heritage before attending the big book fair. Adair County Book Fair, 2013, Second Annual sale and show, on June 1, 2013, 10am-3pmCT/11am-4pmETat the Historic Courthouse, 500 Public Square, Columbia, KY. By Mike Watson Rev. A.C. Wyckoff wrote books, primarily for the young readers of America, from the late 1920s through the early 1950s. Boys all across the nation waited with anticipation for the next installment of the adventures of the courageous Mercer Boys, the mystery hunters. These wonderful books were reprinted at least into the 1960s. Collectors still seek some of the more elusive volumes, particularly those that were not reprinted in the years after World War II, though most of the Mercer Boys series did have a new wave of readers in the 1950s. Brother Wyckoff pastored the Presbyterian Church in Columbia from 1943 until his untimely death in 1953.

Click on headline for entire column with valuable tips on preventing dog bites The next previous Happy Tails column: Happy Tails: Mothers Day is for all mothers By Peg Schaeffer I watched the Preakness Stakes on Saturday. Unfortunately we will go another year without a Triple Crown winner. Orb was the favorite and went off with even odds. (Now that's an oxymoron) and Oxbow, the horse who won the Derby, was a 15-1 shot. The previous day was the Black Eyed Susan stakes (the Preakness for the fillies). The favorite, Emollient, finished 6th place out of 7 and the race was won by FiftyShadesofHay, who was 2-1.
