Compliments on LDN pictures
and copy layout
4-23-00
To the editor:
I wanted to take a
moment to pass on my compliments on LDN. LDN allows me to keep up
with hometown news without the time delay and expense experienced
with a subscription to the hometown newspaper. The crisp pictures
and clean copy layout are a refreshing change from the clutter and
cramming of many Internet pages.
Keep up the great
service.

"LDN is just great!"
4-22-00
Dear editor:
I've suggested LDN
to relatives in Tennessee and California as well as friends in
Texas, and they enjoy LDN. I enjoy the little things such as the
improvement on the layout of page one so I can print it out
without cutting off the lines, and the addition of the graphics in
Hearsay and Hairspray is a delight, especially the dog wagging its
tail!
I click on to LDN
daily. It's the highlight of my day.

Former Logan County residents enjoy
LDN in retirement

To
the editor:
Just
want you to know how much we are enjoying your Web site. My
husband was in business in Beason for many years and I worked in
Lincoln, so we like keeping in touch with Lincoln and Logan
County.
Currently,
we live in Bemus Point, New York, for six months and in Winter
Haven, Fla., for six months – best of both worlds. Retirement is
great.

Thanks to all who helped "Relay for Life" raise over
$56,000
4-19-00
To
the editor:
On
behalf of the Logan County Unit of the American Cancer Society, we
would like to say "thank you" to everyone who helped
make the third annual "Relay
for Life" a huge success. A record number of 96 survivors
participated in the Survivor Walk.
Thanks
to Marilyn Wheat and 41 Logan County youth for helping make the
first overnight relay possible. Students from Carroll Catholic
Grade School, Lincoln Community High School and Lincoln Christian
College and Seminary participated. Cancer never sleeps!
It
was because of all volunteers, participants, supporters, sponsors
and media (including lincolndailynews.com) that we were
together able to raise over $56,000. Many entertainers gave of
their talents all day Saturday. "Relay for Life" is
about a community that takes up the fight against cancer. Together
we can make a difference!
The
support of our great community will allow the American Cancer
Society goals for year 2015 to become a reality. The goals are to
reduce age-adjusted cancer mortality by 50 percent and cancer
incidence by 25 percent; also, to improve the quality of life for
cancer survivors, and to save five million lives. "Relay for
Life" supports these goals.
Those
interested in more information about the Logan County Unit of the
American Cancer Society may pick up a Logan County A.C.S. resource
brochure at Family Medical Center, Abraham Lincoln Memorial
Hospital or the Logan County Health Department. You may call any
A.C.S. board member or call the American Cancer Society office at
800-252-5302.
Thanks
again.
