The following article was taken from Clinton County news clippings from July 1924.

My son and I belong to one of those haughty swim and tennis clubs. Not only is my son a gifted tennis player, he is also an amazing swimmer, so we’re getting our money’s worth.

I want to tell you a story that happened many years ago, as recently as today and will happen again tomorrow. It is a story about a deceptively familiar place where securing the basic necessities of life, health care, housing, transportation and communication requires persistence to overcome one obstacle after another. I call this place The Parallel Universe.

Dear Editor:

In 1929, the Wilmington News Journal published a Souvenir Edition of Clinton County booklet. It included many facts of early Clinton County but the treasure is that it included a short bio of many of the people who helped the county progress to today. I hope we have become what many of those folks wanted us to be.

Editor, News-Journal:

Last week we observed National Police Week – a week to honor the law enforcement officers who sacrifice each day to keep our communities safe.

National Travel and Tourism Week kicked off on May 19, and summer is just around the corner, so what better way to celebrate than by enjoying some of the best attractions Ohio has to offer? From relaxing resorts to exciting sporting events to unique sightseeing, Ohio has more to offer this summer than ever before.
