We wish to thank the church choirs, pastors, director Judge Scott Barrett, and all who made possible the wonderful Community Carol Sing held Sunday evening, Dec. 6 at Kenton First United Methodist Church. The church was beautifully decorated for the inspiring choral anthems and bell ringing, along with the enjoyable congregational carol singing.

I am writing to let people know that during the Veterans Day celebrations, I was at the Council on Aging dinner for veterans and their families. We had a beautiful meal catered by the Plaza.

On the ballot at the November 3rd election will be an issue to consider a .75 mill tax levy for the general operating fund of Buck Township. While most of us cringe at the thought of another tax, l hope you will take a few moments to consider the reasons why the Trustees of Buck Township have decided to place this issue before the voters.

To the editor: Why should we be surprised by misleading political ads?

To the editor: By now, you've probably heard of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's much-heralded "Clean Power Plan."

During the November 3, 2015 election, Hardin County voters are being asked to consider the legalization of Marijuana (as defined in O.R.C. 2925.01(A)(A)). It is known as Issue 3. The procedure called for by Issue 3, is to amend our State Constitution to grant a monopoly to a private business enterprise, bypassing the State Legislature where most laws are passed. Myself and each of the undersigned individuals are united against Issue 3.
