Ada politics 101 years ago was just as interesting as it is today. Here's a photo of a political parade with the sign reading "Vote Ohio Dry on Nov. 3."
This was the Ohio ratification of federal alcohol prohibition. The election took place in November 1919. It was known as Referendum 1 as a veto referendum, where it was defeated. The measure rejected the ratification of the national prohibition amendment. The vote was later overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court.
The measure was one of four qeustions relating to alcohol prohibition on the 1919 Ohio ballot.

When it comes to community service and pharmacy outreach, Clay Miller delivers – figuratively and literally.
Miller, a resident with the Ohio Northern University Raabe College of Pharmacy HealthWise program, was able to draw on his experience as a former pizza delivery driver and lead the implementation of a similar service with the ONU HealthWise Pharmacy.
