2/20/2019 Beginning this week, The Times is adding more pages, more content and more news you can use to the daily Online Edition.
There will be a special page aimed at school-age children entitled Indiana Facts & Fun. It’s an award-winning project that focuses on a different Indiana county each week and helps students with reading, comprehension and math skills. On the other end of the spectrum is a weekly satirical take on horoscopes that gives readers a reason to chuckle. There will also be pages focusing on health, travel, food, business, gardening, opinion and more.
Readers of The Times’ Online Edition will see these new pages beginning in the next few days.

2/20/2019 Earlier this week, Fishers firefighters took a piece of Fishers Fire Department history down from the grain silo, and will begin to restore it in anticipation of integrating it into the new fire station being built to replace current station 391, located at 2 Municipal Drive in Fishers.
Firefighters removed an old siren that was used in the 1960’s and ‘70’s as a way to alert volunteer firefighters of an emergency.
The population then, according to the US Census, was estimated at 344.

2/20/2019 On Monday, the House of Representatives voted in support of legislation authored by State Rep. Chuck Goodrich (R-Noblesville) that would connect students and senior citizens in local schools through a pilot mentorship program.
Goodrich said he was inspired to author the legislation following conversations with local residents who wanted to help after last year’s shooting at Noblesville West Middle School. Through the program, volunteers aged 55 and over would work with students in three school corporations, one urban, one suburban and one rural.

2/1/2019 Dear Editor,
In light of Commissioner Steve Dillinger’s challenge during the State of the County address to avoid negative campaigning, I am sharing my commitment to run a positive and transparent campaign as well as a transparent and positive administration if elected. I believe that Noblesville can be a model for a new way of campaigning and governing, one that listens to and actively seeks engagement from its citizens. During my twelve years of service on the Noblesville School Board, it was a hallmark of our work that we sought to connect with our community in a variety of ways—electronic newsletters, social media, public forums, coffee conversations—to ensure that our community understood what we were proposing and had input on the decisions that were made.

2/1/2019 Dear Editor,
One measure of a healthy economy is unemployment figures. The lower the number, the better the health of a community, state or nation. That’s why we celebrate when a company announces a major expansion, and when a company decides to move jobs to Indiana.
The thing is, getting jobs to Indiana is only a part of the challenge. We also need to get people to the jobs. If we can’t do that, we’ll lose jobs. Employers will bypass us for other markets.
That’s why we need to strengthen our public transportation system.

1/11/2019 Dear Editor,
I have read with interest the letters recently published regarding the use of tax abatements to encourage economic development. As Councilmen O’Connor and Peterson elaborated, new or expanding businesses may ultimately increase the tax base and those business owners have developed an expectation of support for their projects. There are certainly circumstances when the use of tax abatements or tax increment financing (TIF) are appropriate. The question that must be decided by an administration and/or a city council considering the request for such support is what are the benefits to the city in increased jobs, increased tax base, or in addressing a need identified before the request was made.

2/20/2019 A rabbit is a rascally creature, able to accelerate, turn, jump, and cuddle its bunnies virtually simultaneously. It can park its tail almost anywhere, bulks up for winter, and really enjoys summers when it can run free with abandon. Back in the 1970s, Volkswagen had a hopped up Rabbit that it showed getting air in a famous add with the line, “Fly GTI.” The spirit of the creature, and the car, shine in the 2019 VW GTI Rabbit edition.

Warner Sallman is an American born artist who was born in the late 19th century. He devoted much of his life to creating religious images that focused on Jesus Christ. Each of Sallman’s pieces is meant to provide a depth of religious value and bring a sense hope and comfort to the viewer. His most famous work is “The Head of Christ”, which he completed in 1941. The timing of this piece could not have been better as the world was in the early stages of World War II, and the U.S. would soon be entering the fight. This work would be printed in pocket size photos and handed out to the soldiers being shipped off to war to provide comfort and inspiration to many. There is a good chance that you have seen this picture as it has been printed hundreds of millions of times.
If you would like to see “The Head of Christ” and many more of Warner Sallman's original works then you can visit us at the Scheierman Gallery, located on Anderson University’s campus in Anderson, Indiana. We are open Tuesdays and Fridays from 1-4 p.m. or you can make an appointment to visit. We are closed during university breaks, which can be found on the Anderson University Academic Calendar, with exception to summer break when you can visit by appointment only. We look forward to seeing you!
If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.
