In 1975 the articles about locations in Worthington were published in a separate volume entitled "Worthington Vignettes". In the 1950s Arter was published in the Dispatch in features on diverse Ohio subjects from the interurban, the Blennerhessett family, Ohio artist David Blythe, to Edgar Mix, world famous balloonist. Further, Arter was Creative Director and Vice President of an advertising firm and teacher at O.S.U. and Ohio Wesleyan. He also painted watercolors of favorite buildings throughout central Ohio.
