To the editor:
This past Saturday, we came to your town to attend the Raggedy Ann Festival. It was nice despite the weather. As we were going back through town, we saw a sign on an old theater saying “Museum.” We decided to stop, and let me tell you we were so glad we did.

To the editor:
My parents and I will be traveling to your community to do family research in May. We would be interested in meeting with any descendants of Elijah M. Bailey (wife Susannah Edwards). We are also interested in meeting with any descendants of James G. Kearns/Kerns (wife Elizabeth Ann Wheeler).
We have reserved a room at the Cynthiana Harrison County Museum on May 12 from 3-5 p.m. Please drop by, if you can. We hope to meet some distant cousins and share family history and photos.

To the editor:
 The Golden Age of Rock and Roll was a great success. The weather was cool, but the concerts brought forth warm memories as we traveled  back 50 years to a more innocent time when “bobby socks and poodle skirts” were in vogue.
The Licking Valley Singers offer its deep appreciation for the love and support of the faithful patrons, the many individual volunteers and the corporate sponsors who contributed their time, talents and resources to make this concert one that will be remembered.  

To the editor:
On Tuesday, April 17, thousands of women from across the United States will join in a national day of action against unfair pay called Equal Pay Day. April is symbolic of the point into the new year that a woman must work in order to earn the wages paid to a man in the previous year. On a national level, women are paid only 78 cents for every dollar a man is paid, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. So, because women earn less, we must work longer for the same pay.
