OPINION
Reader expresses immigration concern
To the editor: Jay County is facing a problem that too many are pretending doesn’t exist.
Community is unmatched
To the editor: I cried in the shower today. I just had my 20-year class reunion. Time flies, whether you’re having fun or not. I asked my mom if I could borrow a necklace for the party and she obliged. I was sorting through her jewelry box and came upon …
Thank you on behalf of 7-year-old
Have I ever properly thanked Weldon Hamma? I don’t think so, but now that I’m north of 60 things have gotten a little fuzzy. I figure it’s better to thank him twice than not at all.
It was a difficult week for pottery
It’s been a tough time for crockery at our house. The trouble started a couple of Thursdays ago. That’s the night Connie has her latest classes at Ball State University, so the dog and I were on our own.
Thanks for helping to celebrate courage
To the editor: On behalf of the planning committee for the 2025 Jay CountyCancer Society’s Cancer Cruise-In: Celebration of Courage, we want to extend our deepest gratitude to our community for the incredible support shown during this year’s event.

Thanks to a cousin I haven't talked to in years, I now know my great-grandfather's name. Genealogy has never been a high priority at our house.
Problems there are cause for worry
It’s been a rough several weeks. Not here. There. Here, things have been just short of spectacular. But things are often different on the other side of the world, as the news from Iraq reminds us daily.
We must address loneliness issue
To the editor: In a world where digital communication is constant, it is a cruel irony that so many in our communities feel profoundly alone.
Dictionaries failed to bring fluency
If you could learn a language by buying dictionaries, I’d be fluent by now. Fact is, I’m as much a linguistic basketcase as the rest of America. That truth was driven home to me over the weekend.
Jinny’s is step back in time
To the editor: Recently, a truck accidentally drove into the south wall of Jinny’s Cafe in Bryant.
4th of July committee says thanks
To the editor: The Jay County 4th of July Committee would like to thank the Jay County community for another great 4th of July Celebration.
