OLD-TIMERS TALKING WINTER, 2:00 Fri., Jan. 24. Remember what winter used to be. Snow had to be drifted deeply across the road before schools decided not to open. People took hot-water bottles to bed to warm their feet. Water buckets had ice on them in the morning; animals still had to be fed and watered. Nobody out in the country had central heating.

Also up for discussion: Plains Folk and works by Kansas author and folklorist Jim Hoy, who will present a program here 7 p.m. Thurs., Feb. 20.

Old-Timers is a monthly chat group for Boomers and those older, who often focus on local history and nostalgia and, sometimes, watch a classic movie. ... See MoreSee Less

NAVIGATING FUNCTIONS OF DIGITAL PHONES was a hot topic of Wednesday's TechWise 55+ program for seniors. How to manage and safely store photos from phones was of special interest; other phone topics included common scams and two-factor identification. Darrin Daugherty, SEK tech consultant, also discussed availability of periodicals and many useful databases available for free with an ecard from the State Library of Kansas, which we can set you up with by phone; if you don't have a computer, you may read and print from our patron computers. Short videos available from the TechWise link below cover a range of how-to topics, including creating online social security and medicare accounts.
