What does the MP stand for which is engraved on the cornerstone of the Alger First United Methodist Church?
You'll find various Methodist names on cornerstones over the years in different towns. In 1903 this church in Alger was know as Alger Methodist Protestant Church. (Monty Siekerman photo)
The Icon picked up the follow one-sentence news items earlier this week. Each is a story on its own. We’ll simply provide headline details for sake of brevity and hope that we can provide additional information as these stories develop:
On Tuesday morning, The Icon, heading east on Lima Avenue near Ohio Northern University, spotted a deer family traveling from the south side of the avenue to the north side and toward the woods on campus.
In addition to the deer, a flock of Canada geese stood ready to fend off anyone who came too close.
After stopping to watch, the Icon took the following photos of the deer crossing the street.
We've enhanced some of the photos to viewers can see the deer outlines - because we were shooting into the sun.
Through a window dimly: Here are photos of construction on the main floor of Ohio Northern Univesity's Heterick Library, taken through dust-covered windows.
Next time you stop in The Cask Room on Main Street, Ada, tell Jonah Agner that the Icon sent you.
The Icon team very closely follows social media trends from Icon viewers. We have Facebook pages for both Ada Icon and Bluffton Icon, for example. We use Facebook as our primary "tease" to pull viewers to either Icons.
When we have a story that's common to both Icons we really promote it. The Cask Room story with Jonah Agner and his vegeterian menu is a perfect example.
The Icon knew that our story on Jonah Agner's vegetarian menu at The Cask Room, Ada, would be a big hit in both Icons.
