A Medicine Lodge woman retells how her great-grandmother became hooked on a pipe more than a century ago and then quit. The story shows a gradual craving started after nightly tobacco use with a housekeeper and ends with a dramatic act of throwing away the pipe, noting few female descendants smoke.
The guest editorial criticizes an EPA expert panel on secondhand smoke for its ties to tobacco sponsors. Six of 16 members link to the Center for Indoor Air Research funded by Philip Morris, R J Reynolds, and Lorillard, with a seventh named by Philip Morris. The piece argues panel conclusions will be suspect and uninformative to the public.
This feature recalls Raub School District 7 near Centropolis built 1868, its 1935 to 1950 operation, later sale to Cory Wray, current use as a corn crib, and memories of pupils and teachers. It notes Kaub School land origins, local family ties, and a cave-in mishap in the yard. Numerous descendants still in Franklin County are listed.
Cindy Earnshaw urges Ottawa and Franklin County readers to question claims of human sacrifices, supporting Reverend Dan Oglesby's editorial warning about danger. She describes perceived abuses in a Fundamentalist church and condemns euphemisms like obedience and submission as masked harm, calling for clarity on what constitutes a human sacrifice.
