School spirit is strong at the prep level
By George Starks
DARKE COUNTY - It’s been obvious for years. Go to a high school
sporting event and look for the student cheering section. Some kids
have more imagination than one might think. For instance, Saturday
night at Tri-Village, the Patriot students had a theme and Saturday, it

anticipation, to see if Penelope's letter had arrived from exotic

TOWNHALL
Minorities Disproportionately
Worse Off Under Obama
by Rachel Alexander
It is puzzling that so many minorities voted for Barack Obama over Mitt
Romney considering how disproportionately they have suffered
economically during Obama's presidency. Black unemployment under Obama
increased at a higher pace than whites, from 12.7% to 14.1%, ending at
