Omnipiece

By: Betty L. Sheldon

When the Omnis set out to create a race of intelligent life-forms (ILFs), they were faced with a terrible choice of giving the gift of freewill or creating a world of robotic-like beings. The danger was that with freewill, the ILFs could fall prey to the deadly CXV virus. This highly invasive virus would take away the ILFs mental clarity and their ability to contact the Exalted Ones who had given them life. The Omnis made their decision, and as time passed, the virus began to attack Heosphoros. Expecting a reaction from the Omnis and getting none, Heosphoros became more outspoken. Their silence convinced him that he had a cause. “I refuse to put up with being ignored by the Omnis!” he muttered to himself. “I can’t tolerate being in their presence any longer. I’m staying away from them from now on….” After leaving the Omnis, he told the Emmsis, “Since we belong to an order of ILFs who are much superior in our capabilities, we do not need these restraints. Our mental faculties far exceed theirs. Our thoughts follow the Omnis’ thoughts. It is impossible for us to spoil the cosmos by being disorderly. We really need not be concerned with CXV!”

Wakefield

By: Betty J. Cotter

The history of Wakefield, which developed from a rural mill town in the nineteenth century to South Countyas mercantile center in the twentieth, has never before been published in pictorial format. Using images from the Pettaquamscutt Historical Society, the Peace Dale Library, and a number of private sources, local author Betty J. Cotter chronicles Wakefieldas growth from the days of the horse and buggy, dairy farms, and fields to those of shopping centers and fast-food restaurants. Readers will marvel at the trees lining Main Street before a devastating hurricane and Dutch Elm disease changed the landscape forever. While much of downtown Wakefield has retained its historic character, certain localesalike Dale Carlia Corneraare barely recognizable in images from the first half of the twentieth century. Wakefieldas growth is illustrated vividly in photographs of residents at work and at play: images depict grocery clerks showing off mounds of produce, the owners of one of the townas first car dealerships standing proudly in front of a new model, and the wealthy inhabitants of Shadow Farm pulling away from their home in a carriage.
