From the right
BY TIM GRAHAM
One of the most curious things about America is how many of our most celebrated billionaires sound like socialists.

I Remember Dad: The Blessing of Sunday
By Richard Mabey Jr.
Author’s Note: Truth often comes in the simplest moments of life. It is not always necessary to climb the high mountain, to meet the spiritual guru.
As long as I can remember, from those early grades at Chapel Hill School, Sundays were pretty much always the same. It was Sunday School at 9:30, followed by church at 11:00. Then after church, Dad, my sister and I would go into Moe’s Sweet Shop. Mom would wait in the car. Dad would buy about three or four of the big Sunday newspapers, complete with color comics.

OPINION: Infrastructure Insanity
BY VERONIQUE DE RUGY
Attention readers: Mark Shields is off this week. Please enjoy the following column by Veronique de Rugy.
In the event that a group of U.S. senators cannot agree on committing enough money to a bipartisan infrastructure plan, Democrats are reportedly considering a $6 trillion plan of their own. It would probably be best described as a package full of progressive items wrapped in magical thinking paper.

Keep the Fun Afloat: 5 Tips to Make Watersport Adventures Safe this Summer
(Family Features) For those who enjoy outdoor and active summer lifestyles, water entertainment may be the way to go. Racing the waves with the wind flowing through your hair can be a fun and exhilarating way to enjoy fresh air; a dip in a cool lake can also help keep the heat at bay on hot summer days.
Despite world events over the past year, the watersports lifestyle is thriving – potentially due to the nature of personal watercraft riding and ability to practice social distancing. In fact, powerboat sales reached record highs, and while that momentum has slowed some in 2021, personal watercraft sales are still surging – up 77% over 2020, according to the National Marine Manufacturers Association.

Seventeen Chatham High School juniors received CHS Junior Book Awards last week. The recipients are: Stephen Andrews, Brooke Chasalow, Stephanie Chen, Tyler Cooper, John Crowley, Meryn Dziemian, John Foley, Carly Frohnapfel, Eloise Hilgendorff, Luke Lagunowich, Mihir Rao, Meghan Sabin, Charlotte Siow, Kaye Stevenson, Risha Surana, Jack Tapper, and Marianna Zingone.
Each year, CHS honors a select group of students with college “Book Awards.” College book awards are sponsored by select colleges for participating high schools and recognize juniors that have demonstrated some combination of academic achievement, leadership, service, and character. Students are nominated, and a faculty committee determines the recipients.
CHS Principal Darren Groh said, “Our junior recipients should feel proud to be selected as Book Award winners. This is a clear indication that they have made a positive impression in a short time at CHS, and others have recognized them for their character and contributions to their classmates and to our school.”
