Editor: A few days ago I was cleaning out my desk and came across a copy of the ElDo Sun dated May 26, 2016. The reason I saved it is because in it was an article about Smokey the Bear. That triggered a memory of a situation I experienced many years ago in New Mexico.

Editor: It looks like the Democrats are STILL trying to find ways to remove Trump from office, this time by invoking the 25th Amendment, stating that Donald is not mentally fit to be President. It looks like this tantrum could be going on for a very long time. In other news, witches have cast a
Editor: Cedar County has been fortunate to have a county library system that has been funded since 1947.
