This is the first in a series on Ada artists and artisans showing original works for sale at Gallery for the Arts, 115 S. Main St., Ada.
Featured artist Karen Ward, photographer
Ward, a 25-year Ada resident, is a photographer. Several of her photographs are available at the gallery. These include cards, framed photos and 8-by-10 inch unframed photos.
She describes her photography this way:
“I’d photograph more people if I could capture their innocence and not their posed portrait. But, to do so would be sort of sneaky and that isn’t very acceptable this day and age.
Folks from Howell, N.J., bundle up to watch the first ever men's intercollegiate lacrosse match at ONU on Saturday. The temp at game time was 43 with a wind-chill of 35. They attended, having driven from afar, to root on a relative, freshman Derek Price.
The first meeting of the Hardin Co Hootenannies was held at Faith Holbrook's farm. She had five new baby goats to let the members enjoy.
The members guessed on which doe would deliver her kids next. Winners were Riley Fleece -first; Seth Davis and Faith - second. Parents, visitors, and advisors that won were: Billie Mizek and Jason Fleece - first; Ray Davis, Grant and Carter Mizek - second.
President Isaac Davis opened the meeting and asked Sean Hurley to lead the pledge to the American Flag and Seth Davis to lead in the 4-H pledge. We welcomed Elisha Lowery to our club.
Sometimes you have to sit on your mom's lap to see over the rail to watch the show.

Second and third graders in Ada Schools presented "Lemonade" on Thursday afternoon in the school auditorium. (The program should have been titled "Snow Cone" on one of the few days in February this year to see the white stuff come down.)
Ada has a large group of second and third graders with four classes in second and three in third.
The program, drawing many family members in the audience, was headed up by music teacher Mrs. McPeeks. (Monty Siekerman)
