Abby Wright places a hat on the Christmas tree in the lobby of the Liberty National Bank. The bank, for the past 27 years, has collected new hats, gloves, coats, and scarfs for Project Warmth. The clothing helps keep Ada children warm in the winter months. Local residents are encouraged to donate.
When the evening news dishes up a “crisis of the day” it is very easy to feel like nothing is secure.
The political world has upheaval, the economic world is uncertain and confusing. It can be very easy to feel afraid. However, fear can cause us to make irrational decisions that are not good for us in the long-term.

Officials from Lewis Family McDonald's presented a check for $1,000 to Upper Scioto Valley Schools for the effort of school employees and local residents who had supper at Ada McDonald's on Oct. 16. Ada, too, received a check for $700 for their efforts on Oct. 9.
The schools vied for which could get the most customers to Ada McDonald's during a three hour period on different Mondays.
Ada went first, a mob of people showed up and made purchases. In fact, it was the largest turnout ever for a McTeacher's Night from among the 17 Lewis Family McDonald's. But then came USV, and they topped Ada to win an extra $150.
