Support Kentucky's children
In the news lately there has been a rash of child drownings that caused me to remember a prayer I clipped from the Old Louisville Times in 1966. I have files of newspaper clippings and magazines, and quotes from writers of books, something that will cause my children to gasp at when they find them someday. I thought some of your readers might find the prayer as beautiful as I did.

Those pesky ants
I called on a customer just off I-75 the other day. He followed me out to the parking area beside the store. There, I noticed a couple of large anthills.
"I've tried just about everything I know to get rid of these ants," said my customer. "I even put grits on them." For a second, I thought he had said he put grits on the ants, but you'd have to be a little touched to do something like that, and my customer is without doubt of sound mind.

Our compliments
In regard to the story "A blast from the Past" published on July 28:
Our compliments to you for hiring and helping to further train young people like Ellen Hittson. She was an absolute joy during the interview, and her finished article certainly captured the closeness and friendships that have lasted for years.
Campbellsville and Taylor County provided such a safe, loving base for our lives, and it is certainly rewarding to see opportunities continuing to be given to young people in the forming of their futures. Kudos to you.

Superintendent's comment
This is in response to Taylor County School Superintendent Roger Cook's comments in the Thursday, July 28 News-Journal:
A reader asks about the toys setting out at the Taylor County Elementary School, rusting away. Roger Cook's comment was: "Looks like it."
If I recall, it was just a couple of years ago that Cook was telling how Taylor County Schools were financially broke, and that a nickel tax needed to be enforced on the taxpayers of Taylor County so that we could build and have the best schools around.

What's justice about that?
I read the code of ethics and this subject pertains to that. We all have read the paper or even a police report that the details are either not all there or they have thrown in something that you think, "Where did that come from?" We depend on others to get our information correctly.
Those who write reports and take down notes should realize how they can affect other people's lives. Whether it be for insurance purposes or for court, it can make a difference.

Thanks to road workers
We want to congratulate the road workers for the excellent job that they did on Old Lebanon Road. It looks good and it feels great when driving. The workers were polite and professional in spite of the horrendous heat. Credit where credit is due.
