Daily News for Tuesday, February 12, 2019
Letter: applauds USPS for staying competitive Mark Hale writes: Finally, after decades of raising the rate by a penny or two only to do it again a year or two later, the USPS has finally figured out to raise it a whole nickel. Whatever will we do as they dig so deep into our pockets? I don't know if I can afford a whole nickel. It's about time they do this. Now common sense would tell us that another increase will not be necessary for a few years now. When that time comes make it another nickel or even a dime. 2019-02-12 19:27:17 | Comments | Printable version

Sharon Whitehurst: A Morning Without Rain Taking a moment out of the home-building process in northern Adair County, the writer describes checking out the 'new every morning' grandeur of sunrise with trusty escort Willis the Cat by her side... By Sharon Whitehurst On Saturday morning I slipped out of bed at the importunate insistence of several cats who felt the call of the outdoors. The first pale hints of morning were evident in the eastern sky as I raised the shade on the small window near my nest of blankets and pillows. It felt too early in the day to pull on yesterday's jeans and paint-stained sweatshirt; Jim was sleeping and likely wouldn't appreciate me rattling about. On a whim, I made myself comfortable, fleece throws snuggled around my shoulders, pillows propped to give me a good view out the window.
