Primary Election 2023 ran smoothly in Adair, thanks to all Adair County Clerk Lisa Greer sends a heartfelt thank you to the Board of Elections, staff and all of the poll workers who made Primary Election day May 16, 2023 run smoothly.

Carol Perkins: Change Please Previous Column: Hello, Are You There? By Carol Perkins On a recent trip to the beach with some ladies, we looked for a good steakhouse that wasn't a chain. A place in Pensacola called the District was highly recommended. Fine dining was not what we had in mind, but once we parked and walked a block, we decided to make this our splurge for the week. We soon realized we were a little underdressed, but no one knew us. A clue upon entering was the overly large flower arrangements throughout the restaurant and even on each table. We could barely see over the bouquet to have a conversation. Two of us ordered steaks and one side each. The other two had pork chops and one side. No bread, not even a shaker of salt on the table. When the food arrived, we steak eaters were well pleased, but the pork chop eaters were not.
