West Saline Community Center news: the Jackson Family reunion was last Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons at WSCC with about 75 attending from across the US. The pork was present is great quantities. The Wagnon Family reunion was Sunday with about 25 attending. The 2012 NEHS All School Reunion was last Saturday. Attendance for that was down this year, probably due to the oppressive heat, with about 75 students and faculty there. Despite this, we had a great time with door prizes and food galore. Make plans to attend next year if you missed out this time.
Patronage of the New Edinburg Museum that Saturday was excellent; people like what's going on down there. NEHS graduate Virginia (Brown) Carter donated her 1970 FFA Sweetheart jacket to the museum (see accompanying picture elsewhere in this edition). Thanks goes to Virginia for this beautiful and priceless relic. As I open up the museum on and off again this year, I'll be sure to give a heads up in the paper.

"But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." --- Matthew 6:33
Prayer list this week includes: Kristy Russell.
Birthdays this week include: Gauge Weaver (June 29), Betty Carol Lane (June 30), and Ailene Erwin (June 30).
The heat's not letting up. Judge Spears has had us under a burn ban for a couple of weeks now, and the humidity is extremely low, so fires are a very real danger right now. Take no chances.
The New Edinburg All School Reunion will be July 7 starting at 10am in the cafeteria of the West Saline Community Center (the same ol' place it's been for years now). Former students, teachers and their families are invited. This has always been a great event and here's hoping we'll break an attendance record this time.
Concerning the WSCC, I was asked a few days ago by a local resident "why bother to maintain the school building, when newer facilities are available?" I told him I could write out the answer better than I could verbalize it and he should watch this column for his answer. Here it is: Joann Hall, Kay Childress, Lorraine Taylor, Linda Joyner, Joe Daniel, Sue Sanders, Brice Clay, Jigs Attwood, Anita Knowles, Nolan Brown, Cindi Morris, Odell Wolfe, Gene Franklin, James Rankin, Danny Allen, H. O. Splawn, Bobby Hyatt, Danny Adams, Debbie Jones, Evelyn Norris, Jane LaBeuff, and a cavalcade of others living and dead who, since 1904, got up every morning and attempted to turn school kids into civilized human beings instead of farm animals. We owe it to them. You're either on board, or you're not. It's an Eagles thing; dig it.

death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things
present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other
creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in
Christ Jesus our Lord."

I hope all fathers had a great Father's Day this week. Winding June down, already one half 2012 is gone.
The New Edinburg All School Reunion will be July 7 starting at 10am in the cafeteria of the West Saline Community Center (the same ol' place it's been for years now). Former students, teachers and their families are invited.
The D. L. Broughton family had a Father's Day supper celebrating all the fathers in that family last Sunday in the cafeteria.
Fresh, young, bright, energetic, bouncing kittens are still available at my house... for free. Take two, they're small.
I was reminded the other day of the persistent rumor concerning gold buried somewhere on the Marks' Mills battlefield or in the area. Folks, there is no gold up there and never was. The Federal wagon train jumped there was returning from supply troops in Camden; there was a small amount of Yankee greenbacks on one of the wagons involved, but I'm sorry to say no massive amounts of gold coins waiting to make someone rich. I remember Harvey St. John told my dad that as a youth he saw the hole open where the gold was buried, and the footprints around it matched his... which I guess was his way of hinting he had discovered it. Harvey was also known to tell a tall tale now and then too.
