“If I retired, I’d have a weed-free yard,” exclaims Mark Shull, whose dentistry practice has been a part of Main Street in Ada since 1962.
Mark has absolutely no plans to retire, though. Ask him how he got started in dentistry and he laughs and then relates the events. “Well my birthday is on Halloween so I started school at age 5 and then entered college at age 17.”
Mark began as a pre-pharmacy student at Capital University in Bexley, Ohio, but after the first semester decided he was then terrible at math so he changed to pre-med with a chemistry minor.

It was "snacks under the tables" on Wednesday for students at the Ohio Northern University Child Development Center. The event was so popular that we suggest you try this at home.
A "drug take-back" event takes place from 9 a.m. to noon, Saturday, April 26, in the parking lot north of Rite Aid. Here is background on the event, provided by The Village Voice:
The things we think we, as consumers, can put down our drains and toilets aren’t always what the drains are made to handle. Some of the items are a matter of common sense.
Would you ever think to put rags down the drain or toilet as a means of disposal? Probably not.
