PROFILE
FT ILIE LONG
Graphic artist Julie Long
loves creating ads for paper
The Buckeye State's loss was the Tar Heel State's gain when Julie
Bodle Long took a job with Republic Newspapers.
, Long, Republic Newspaper's graphic artist at The Kings Mountain
Herald, loves to create picture perfect advertisements and copy that the
..reader enjoys.
"Just out of Indian Lake High School in Ohio 11 years ago, she went
"immediately into the newspaper business and got hooked. She worked
' for Wapakoneta Daily News and then at St. Mary's Evening Leader and
fell in love with North Carolina on a visit to this state seven years ago
, and applied for a job in the composing room at The Kings Mountain
“Herald. ls
Long worked briefly for the Herald's sister paper, The Banner-News.
"I worked for a paper back home right out of high school after fin-
ishing my junior and senior years at vocational school pursuing my ca-
reer in graphics,” said Julie. En
. Two years ago Julie married Gaston County native, James "Chuck"
"Long and they moved to his grandmother's farm between Dallas and
"High Shoals.
. Julie has put her creativity to work at home also. She and her hus-
"band are remodeling their 100-year-old farm house, doing the work
themselves on their off hours from work and during vacation. She
“hopes to have the kichen remodeling, which includes a complete
rewiring, completed by spring and then she plans to plant a vegetable
and herb garden. A diesel mechanic at Estes Express Lines in
Charlotte, Chuck Long shares his wife's love for the outdoors and for
i— farm life.
The Longs love to garden and have plenty of room on their farm to
indulge Julie's herb gardening and pottery making hobbies. Julie has
already picked out the spot on her farm where her husband will build
her pottery shop. They also enjoy animals and it isn't unusual to see
them feeding the birds, the flying squirrels that flit from tree to tree in
the yard, raccoons and-possums and doting on their two dogs, Maggie
“and Bobo and their three cats, Homer the house cat and two strays.
They have what Julie calls a "goody field" at the back of their house
where she throws scraps of food to stray animals. The Longs eventual-
| ly windjup taking in another pet or twa. a 3
i In'fact the dogs go everywhere the Longs go - on visits to Julie's
i parents in Ohio and on vacation trips,
i At this time of year when there is 14 inches of snow on the ground
i in Ohio, Julie gets homesick. She and her husband usually go home
| three or four times a year but it has been many Christmases since Julie
| spent the holidays with her parents, Ruth Ann and William C. Bodle in
Lewistown, Ohio and her two brothers and sister. She has never seen
much snow in North Carolina.
i The Longs are active members of the Windjammers Motorcycle
| Club and each have a Harley, participating in the recent Ride for the
{ Children where Julie took photographs of the big event for The Herald.
i Julie's job for Republic Newspapers, which owns The Herald,
Banner News, Bessemer City Record, Cherryville Eagle and
Cleveland Times, includes turning out advertisements on the big
Macintosh computers, helping with layouts, putting on headlines for
the newspapers and pasting up.
"The newspaper business is always changing and I guess that's why
I like my work," said Julie, who enjoys seeing what she has cut out and
pasted up go on the pages.
"I help see that the finishing touches on the newspapers are done by
putting on the headlines and helping with some of the layouts," she ~~
ays. :
She didn't start working on Macintosh equipment until several years
ibefore she left Ohio. When the old equipment was taken out of the pro-
iduction department it was "sink or swim", so she has taught herself
imuch of the operation of the equipment and has helped others from the
five Republic newspapers learn more about Macintosh computers.
Graphics is an outlet for the young woman who compared working
in a commercial printing place with a newspaper office. During her ex-
iperience in an Ohio print shop, she said she followed the layout exact-
ow
ily. Now she has more incentives to create and put her talents to work.

Precious Time
When the old year ends, 365 days will have passed. As the new year begins. it will bring
with it another measure of equal time...365 days more. We begin to speak of thetold year
as “last year”: the:new year as “this year.”
Last year may have been a happy one or a sad one. Looking back. there inay Rave BEC
happy moments, ones of joy, shared with others—a birth, wedding. an anniversary.
During the past year some have experienced difficulties. pain and sorrow-a serious
health problem. a betrayal of trust. a heart breaking bereavement, a friend in trouble.
This year. shape the future by what you have learned from the past, its good along with
its bad. live well and do better. Spend your time so that it blesses you and the others
around you.
The time God has allotted us on this earth is indeed most precious.
