Enjoying the lions

RUSHVILLE — Dear Editor:

I have enjoyed looking at the lions all over town. The people painting them have to be very artistic. I have seen this done in other towns in the past with pigs and chickens.

I hope the plain ones get painted soon. It brightens up our town.

I also enjoy Bill Ward’s articles.

Letters to the Editor
  • Fondly remembering favorite teachers

    Dear Editor:
    If it wasn’t for my high school teachers Mrs. Gulde, Mr. Blair and Mrs. Perin, I might think that Chekov was only a starship pilot on “Star Trek,” Seymour Glass was the name of an Indiana glazier, and Romeo and Juliet was only a movie that starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Clair Danes.

  • A few words of thanks

    Dear Editor:
    Bob Hope once said, “If you haven’t any charity in your heart, you have the worst kind of heart trouble.” I would like to report that we have so many wonderfully kind people in the community who are very “heart healthy” and completely free of this type of “heart trouble.”

  • Library should be county-wide

    Dear Editor:
    I read with interest Paul Barada’s column proposing that the Rushville Library should become a county facility.
    Way back in 1990, shortly after I became publisher of the Rushville Republican, I approached the director of the library, informing her that I wished to put the entire resources of the local newspaper behind a drive to convert the city library to a county library.
