This year's school musical at the Odessa schools was one of the best we have witnessed on the stage of the multi-purpose room. The singing, the acting, the costumes and staging were all very well done. Something new this year, though, was the youngsters in the crowd scenes who were coached to act as if they were doing something as part of the scene, not just stand and stare at the audience or the other performers. It was a very nice touch, and the kids involved were given an...

1 years ago From The Odessa Record April 3, 1914 The John Schafer store was burglarized and $414.43 was taken from the till besides three pairs of socks and one odd sock and nearly two boxes of chewing gum.

Odessa Record subscriber Larry Fisher of Spokane continues his series of articles on the history of the Batum/Lauer area (where his wife, the former Joyce Kiesz, grew up). Hi, here I am again.

In Conrad Fink's time before Mr. Mayer at Batum had grain storage capacities, Fink grain was hauled to Irby and the Finks shopped in Irby also. When Mayer at Batum started accepting grain,...
The human brain gathers millions of pieces of information every minute, analyzes each one, comes to a conclusion within seconds, and formulates an appropriate reaction. Every one of us processes and reacts to information differently; the reaction created is dependent upon the past experiences, mood, and disposition of the individual. Sometimes, the way we react to a situation may be misconstrued as inappropriate, rash, or uncaring; even when we mean well. The unconscious part of our brain is typically responsible for...

Snow drops are blooming and we are past the vernal equinox, so it must be spring. Sunny days whet our taste buds for the fruits of summer, but the local berries, vegetables and fruits are still a few months in the future. Maybe this is why lemon flavored recipes come to the fore in springtime. Coincidentally, the first of the gluten free recipes to come along in response to my request on behalf of gluten free diet readers is lemon based. Merleen Smith shared the recipe for...

“God will never give you anything you can’t handle.” -Kelly Clarkson It’s pretty easy to do one thing at a time. Two things? No problem. Three or four, even? Sure! It’s not hard to multi-task; you do one or two things here and there and, a little at a time, everything gets done. But, sometimes, we try to do everything all at once; that’s when we experience problems. Sometimes, when faced with a series of tasks, it seems like a really good idea, at first, to do everything all at once. That way you won’t have anything to do lat...

The Odessa Chamber of Commerce bought a new trailer for hauling the community float to parades and gave it to the Town of Odessa.

At the Chamber’s regular meeting on March 25, Marlon Schafer asked whether the trailer might b...
