Fall’s Delights

Americans refer to autumn as fall because of the falling of the leaves. Riding to work on U.S. 60 West, I can see the subtle transform ation begin as the green leaves on the trees change into their fall finery. 10/04/2023 12:00 AM

How We Can Help RARA Help Others

As we pointed out in last week’s editorial about the start of this year’s United Way campaign, there are a lot of neighbors in our community who need the help that United Way agencies provide. 10/04/2023 12:00 AM

For Ojure

Oct. 2, 2023 Editor, The News-Gazette: As a retired classroom teacher, I believe that school boards function best when people with teaching experience serve on them. Lenna Ojure not only has that experience (at the elementary, middle and high school levels), she also earned a PhD in curriculum and instruction at Virginia Tech. With that expertise, she advanced to teaching at the college level at both VMI and at W&L, where she directed the Teacher Education Program for 11 years. 10/04/2023 12:00 AM

Library Book ‘Absolutely Inappropriate’

Library Book ‘Absolutely Inappropriate’

Sept. 28, 2023 Editor, The News-Gazette I am a flaming liberal and against book sequestering. However we can support children’s sexual identity without stooping to vulgarity. The book in question, “Kiss Number 8,” offered to youngsters at Lylburn Downing Middle School, inflames the lowest common denominator and appears absolutely inappropriate as a learning resource. 10/04/2023 12:00 AM

For Smith

Oct. 2, 2023 Editor, The News-Gazette: Voters looking to improve Rockbridge County’s board of supervisors have a clear choice this fall: Mack Smith, farmer, businessman, and public servant to represent the Buffalo District. 10/04/2023 12:00 AM

Institutional Memory Source Lost

Institutional Memory Source Lost

Sept. 27, 2023 Editor, The News-Gazette: If you have been involved with a large, old organization, whether a business or nonprofit organization, you know how important it is to know what has preceded you. Who made what commitments to whom? How much did we agree to pay? When did we agree to build it? 10/04/2023 12:00 AM
