Speak Out 6/5/18

Keep up your home

What's getting wrong with the men who will help others or do anything away from home helping other people but won't look after their own homes? I'm not talking about keeping up with the Joneses what they have or are doing. Just fixing up a few things around your home to keep it from losing the value or just falling in on ya. Keeping the yard and their fences looking OK. Not fancy just keeping it up. Thank you.

Congrats Bulldogs

Van Buren High School has a seven-time all-state athlete and a two-sport coach of the year. Congratulations!

'Vital importance'

I would like to encourage everyone to either buy your Daily American Republic newspaper. It's of vital importance to know our local, state, country and world news.

Movie guide

Thank you for F-I-N-A-L-L-Y posting a movie guide in the newspaper.

Prom dresses

Thumbs up! To parents who make sure their children -- yes, children, dress appropriately for their high school prom. Some of the recent pictures appearing in the DAR made it obvious that the word "appropriate" as we once knew it, is open for interpretation.
