DO YOU REMEMBER?
In this fast moving; world it's hard enough to keep
up with daily changes and happenings. It's even
harder to keep up with what's already happened
much less remembering when it happened. If we
were to ask you what important things happened in
Madison County this time a year ago, we doubt if
you could remomber many of them. What about
three years ago or five years ago? Time flies so
swiftly many things which happened several years
ago seem to be much more recent then the facts re
veal. In last week's issue, we published many impor
tant happenings which occurred during 10(2. Some
of them, we'll admit, were surprising. Several read
ers have commented about the review and stated that
it was very interesting.
In this first issue of 190.'!, we decided to do a
little more research and see what happened during
past years in January. Do you remember?
