Mow many times have you been finishing o f f * cool drink when that last tut of iee and liquid stick in the bottom of the t o p You tilt the container and tap its bottom when suddenly the ice breaks free and smaaks you in the face. That's how Kentucky mayors must feeL like they have been smacked in the face and something sticky is dripping off their chin. * Being mayor of a city these days requires more fancy balancing than Olga Knrhut, Billie Sol Estes and Karl Wallenda.

Extensive ('•search on where the district'courts will be established is now being undertaken by workers in a small white office just west of Frankfort. It 's

Eventually, the O J P s suggestions will be given to a legislative committee laying the groundwork for the special session's work on judicial reform. An aide to the governor says all of the details will be ironed out before the special session is called so when the lawmakers unpack their bags in Frankfort most of the work wid be done for them.

It's a ticklish situation. The small courts which are going the way of the dinosaur. Whig Party, and the Kentucky Colonels provide a good deal of the revenue for cities from South Shore to Sturgis, OJP realizes this.

"In the other states which have undertaken judicial reform some type of plan has always been established to return some of the lost revenue back of the local governments." In addition, the director of the Office of Judicial Planning, William Davis, says. "I know the local courts are an important source of revenue for the small cities." So does Marshall Long.

Long is the mayor of Shelbyville. In 1975 Sbelbyviile's overhead for oper at ion of its police court waa leas than $6,000. The judge

Church attendance always shows a decrease in the summer months. Clergymen are of course concerned about it. A certain clergyman decided he would, at least try to do something about it. He prepared a unique check list'in the Sunday bulletin. He captioned the list with - "I can't attend church services because:". He listed the most commonly known excuses underneath the heading with the request -"Please check your reason."

Below the itemized list of reasons, he inserted a suggestion on how to use the list when it was checked off..He did not specify an address but he made his point quite clear...He wrote - "Please tear off and mail to God."

There is no Epilogue to this story ...We don't know whether it increased church attendance - but we are sure it caused some needed thinking...Robert L. Cox, Cox Funeral Home, Mt. Vernon, Ky. Ph. 256-2345.
