A Little Bit Country If you’ve lived in Hocking County all your life you know what it’s like to be called ... a little bit country. You are away from the hustle and bustle of I- 70 and the pushing and pulling in the super express lanes of grocery stores. You know ever- yone around you and there isn't anyone at whom you can't smile generously and say, “I'm glad to see ya! Logan is what some call a hick town. Of course the bad points always seem to be evi- dent but where else will you find a city located in the center of beautiful scenic views, caves of ancient times, rolling farm- land, and open spaces. You have to admit you don't get that roomy feeling driving down High St. in Columbus. Logan hasn’t lost pace with modern society but it is very conservative and things move a little slower than in the big city. A lot of nice old-fashioned’ traditions are still upheld. Through all our struggles and pleasures, we have a pocketful of memories to look back on: the twinkling Christmas lights, the foot of snow, shopping in stores whose owners call you by name and — oh yes, the sub- marine races at Lake Logan. Logan has little to offer in recreation for young adults. An occasional square dance or hayride is fairly common, but considering the “modern” entertainment of big cities, we don't seem to be advancing. Population is no problem. Nearly 20,322 live in Hocking County with 6,275 citizens in Logan. Most of us are proud of being down home country, and having the security and dependability of trusting our friends. 2 . . .

You can hear your echo bounce off the remote walls of the school as you realize sum- mer has come to an end. Nine months of the year, we live in this 66 year old school. It 4 Kickin' in the School Year houses 781 students and 52 fac- ulty members. When we return it’s evident that floors have been waxed, steps painted and windows cleaned. That first day of school is like a reunion. “Hello, how are you? How was your summer?” etc. We gather in the auditorium to hear the rules and regulations of the school year. 1:30pm comes fairly fast but when you're out it’s back into shorts and off to play tennis. The second day is what we might call ‘getting down to bus- iness.’ Books are passed out, instructions are given for class behavior and the first home- work assignment is given over the moaning and groaning of the students. This is the time you'd wish that you’d be laying in the sun or horseback riding far off in the distance. Anything to omit the agony of injuring the brain of too much work. We do have one thing to look for- ward to though — only 178 more days till — we kick “out” the '76-77 school year.
