Honoring the ‘Greatest’Page 1B

By Natalie GeNtryDance is the only art in which we

ourselves are the stuff of which it’s made. – Ted Shawn

Dance is a fantastic form of self-ex-pression, exercise, and creativity, and many instructors will argue that the art form is basic to learning.

In fact, according to Dr. Reuven Feurstein – a world-renowned cog-nitive psychologist, known for his groundbreaking research in cognitive modifiability – dance and the “Mind-Body approach advocates activating the body in order to more readily ac-cess and focus the mind.”

The Joyful Movement dance class at Foot Works Performing Arts Center in Weatherford embraces this concept.

The idea that dance helps children interact with, learn from, and contrib-ute to the world around them.

The class is designed for dance stu-dents with special needs and encour-ages them to participate at their own ability level.

Class creator Ailisha Klaudt said the idea for the class came to her not long after she joined the studio.

“I realized that there was not a pro-gram for these kids in the area after I had done some research.” Klaudt said “I suggested the class to Whitney Moore, the owner of the studio, and she told me to run with it.”

And run with it she did.The class began in March of 2014,

and by that summer the students were ready for their first recital.

Springtown resident Teal Clark – whose son R.J. is the lone boy in the class – said that the Joyful Movement

students made a big impact at the event.

“At the recital everyone was so sur-prised,” Clark said. “We heard people saying things like ‘that was awesome,’ it was wonderful. The kids have be-come ambassadors of sorts.”

Calla Daniels, the mother of another stu-dent, Savannah, added that the pride the chil-dren felt at the recital was clearly evident.

“They are so proud of themselves at the recitals,” Daniels said. “You can see it in their faces.”

While the recitals are exciting for everyone, the parents all noted that simply interacting with other kids has been the most impactful element of the class.

“The social interaction is so impor-tant,” said Leslie Price, mother of Joy-ful Movement student Kennedy Reed.

Robyn Horton agreed.“Ansley (Horton’s daughter) gets

so much from being with the other kids,” she said. “The socialization is so important for her. She comes from a small school where she is the only special needs child.

“And the parents have been wonder-ful for me as well.”

Price and Horton also praised Klaudt and class instructor Sharae Womack for the addition of the Upsee harnesses for their wheelchair- bound daughters.

“I’ve never seen Ansley get so ex-cited as she has since we’ve gotten the Upsees,” Horton said. “She absolutely

loves not being in her chair.”The Upsee kits include a harness for

the child, which is attached to a belt worn by an adult to allow the child to stand up.

In addition, specially-engineered sandals allow the adult and child to

step simultaneously, leaving their hands free for other tasks, such as playing or dancing.

“It was just a bless-ing when we were able to purchase a couple of the Up-sees,” Klaudt said. “When we found out about them, we just

knew we wanted to get a few.”The class meets on Fridays at 4:30

p.m. and typically lasts about an hour.

During that time, the instructors, stu-dents, and volunteer shadows stretch, work on body movements, and dance to the routines.

“My work week ends with see-ing them every Friday,” Klaudt said. “These kids mean the world to me. I love them just as they were my own.”

“This program is a blessing,” she continued. “And God continues to do great things through us and the chil-dren.”

For more information call Klaudt at 678-232-4576 or email her at al-lyklaudt@gmail.com.

When you dance, your purpose is not to get to a certain place on the floor. It’s to enjoy each step along the way. – Wayne Dyer

By Natalie GeNtryThe Parker County Emergency Ser-

vices District is a blending of full-time paid personnel and volunteers.

Willing to workAlthough the ESD rosters are cur-

rently robust, individuals interested in volunteering are always encouraged to fill out an application.

In order to become a volunteer fire-fighter with the ESD, certain require-ments must be met.

Applicants must be 18-year-old or older and in acceptable physical con-dition.

“We prefer they be out of school,” Captain David Pruitt said. “Although a couple of departments offer a Junior Firefighter Program.”

To participate in these programs stu-dents must maintain grades, stay out of trouble, and adhere to a curfew.

A criminal background check is run on each volunteer applicant as well.

The ESD does not accept applicants with a history of theft, indecency, or

assault. Felony convictions are another non-

starter.Once an applicant has been accept-

ed as a volunteer, they are placed on a six month probation period.

“During this time they have to fin-ish the introductory training module,” Pruitt said.

This introductory period allows each individual to become familiar with the ESD’s procedures and equip-ment.

Applications are available online at

www.pcesd1.com/membership

Road to certificationIn order to keep the volunteer’s

training up to speed and ensure every-one’s safety each volunteer is required to work approximately 30 hours a month in order to stay an active mem-ber of the organization.

This requirement also ensures $3,000-5,000 worth of equipment is-sued to each man or woman is being used.

“We typically have other people in-terested,” said Pruitt. “If a volunteer isn’t going to be an active member, we can use that gear elsewhere.”

The ESD ensures its volunteers stay up-to-date with free training funded by state grants filed with the forestry service.

“The training through the state fire-fighters’ and fire marshals’ association helps our volunteers receive enough training to challenge the state test to become a certified firefighter,” Pruitt

SHS evacuated after suspicious device found

Homemade fireworks-stuffed tube discovered in boys’ bathroom

By Natalie GeNtryStudents at Springtown High School

were evacuated at approximately noon Feb. 17 once Assistant Principal Kirt Shaw was notified of an unusual object in one of the boys’ restrooms.

SISD Superintendent Mike Kelley said, “A student told Mr. Shaw there was something that looked like fire-works in the restroom.”

After the discovery, administrators decided it was in everyone’s best in-terest to evacuate the school while a search was conducted.

The object in question turned out to be homemade fireworks constructed with a paper towel roll and duct tape.

K-9 units specializing in explosives detection were brought in by the Bu-reau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms

and Explosives (ATF) as well as by Black Creek K-9 Services.

The SISD had secured Black Creek’s services at the beginning of the school year for just such emergencies.

The search revealed that no other devices were present.

Students were allowed back into the school at approximately 1:30 p.m.

While the search was in progress, several students came forward with information about the incident.

The combination of accounts and vid-eo footage led administrators to identify the student responsible for the device.

The student quickly acknowledged he brought the fireworks onto campus.

District administration is working with the Springtown Police Department to take appropriate actions in the case.

City notifies residents of TCEQ violation

It’s a quantity, not quality issueBy Natalie GeNtry

Springtown residents received a letter dated Feb. 6 regarding a viola-tion of the lead and copper monitor-ing as required by the Texas Com-mission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).

However, according to City Admin-istrator Doug Hughes, the notice re-gards the frequency of water testing, not the quality of water.

The letters, required by TCEQ, stated Springtown did not complete mandatory lead and copper testing be-tween Jan. 1, 2012 and Dec. 31, 2014.

Hughes said during that time the

city’s contact operator did not conduct all required sampling.

“We failed to take the appropriate lead and copper samples during the time frame,” Hughes said. “On Sept. 30 of 2014 we only sampled 10 loca-tions instead of 20.”

Historically, samples collected by the city have met or exceeded TCEQ water quality standards.

“We will resolve this issue by col-lecting the required samples this sum-mer,” Hughes said.

Springtown is expected to return to compliance this year as soon as the re-sults are reported to TCEQ.

It’s time for the Tabernacle

For over 75 years, the Tabernacle has served as the spiritual and cultural heart of Springtown. Renovations have begun to preserve her for future generations. You can help make this a reality while at the same time enjoying some good BAR-B-Q food. Each Tuesday during the month of February, WOODY CREEK will donate a portion of all proceeds to the TABERNACLE RESTORATION FUND. Have a heart and do your part by visiting WOODY CREEK each Tuesday in February. Thank you WOODY CREEK!

said. “Part of their volunteer service is giving back for that training and experience.”

The ESD conducts monthly training in conjunction with Weatherford College.

Volunteers receive certifi-cates for different classes, and their training is reported into the State Fire Marshal’s Asso-ciation.

“Eventually they can com-pile all that information and challenge the state to take the Texas Commission Fire Pro-tection license (TCFP),” Pruitt said. “I’ve been with volunteer organizations for 19 years now and this is the first one that I’ve been affiliated with that has moved in that direction.”

Compensation for dedicationIn addition to free training

and the eventual opportunity to become state certified, vol-unteers in good standing with the ESD is the chance to get paid at times.

“The stations in Springtown and Aledo have just gone to 24 hours, so there is the oppor-tunity to work compensated shifts once they have enough

training,” Pruitt said.There are four positions that

have to be filled each night be-tween Springtown and Aledo – 28 spots each.

In addition there are mul-tiple opportunities for volun-teers to fill compensated day shifts when full-time staff takes time off.

“On average we have 30-35 positions each week we have to fill,” Pruitt said.

“The ESD has been and is re-ally good at supporting and re-warding volunteers who have put in their time and shown dedication.”

These opportunities for sti-pend pay will only increase as

the ESD evolves to the point where all five stations can be staffed 24 hours a day.

James Scott Woody, lifelong resident of Parker County and great-great-grandson of the original white settlers of this county, Samuel and Hannah Woody, passed from this life on Wednesday, Feb. 11, 2015. He was 93 1/2 years old and dearly loved.

The Woody family hopes to continue Scott’s long legacy of love, hard work, strong family ties and faith. Celebration of Scott’s life was held with a visitation from 6 to 8 p.m. Sunday at White’s Funeral Home in Springtown, 401 N. Main St. The funeral was held at 1:30 p.m. Monday at First Baptist Church of Springtown, 500 N. Main St.

Scott was born on the family farm near Veal Station on July 31, 1921, the fourth of six children. He began helping his father, John E. Woody, milk the cows just as soon as he “could walk under one.” In the sixth grade, his father allowed him to

keep a calf that Scott saved from a snowy ravine, and so began Scott’s dairy herd. Scott was industrious: he ran a dairy route before school, raised and sold turkeys for extra money in the winter, and became financially independent at a young age. When not working or at school, Scott and his brothers enjoyed many adventures with the Martin boys, who lived across the road.

In the seventh grade, Scott met his lifelong sweetheart, Miss Rena Mae Stroud. She knew that one day they would be married once she saw his twinkling blue eyes and he asked her to walk around the church. They graduated from Springtown High, class of 1940. They married that December on Rena Mae’s 18th birthday by the Rev. Howard Butler. Scott and Rena Mae were married 74 years.

Scott and Rena Mae bought their farm in 1948 and there they raised their children: Kenneth, Dwayne, Frank and Sally. They built their home atop a hill, giving them a beautiful view of their land.

Scott was active in the community. He sat on the school board for Northside Consolidated School, was a member of the Weatherford Livestock Association, and lifetime member of the First Baptist Church of Springtown. In 1960, Scott was encouraged by friends to run for Parker County commissioner. He ran and won. Scott served the people

of Precinct 1 for 16 years, and often said he “always tried to do what was right.” Scott was awarded the Outstanding Soil Conservationist by the Agricultural Extension Office in Parker County in 1976. One son, Dwayne, farmed with his father, and together they were awarded the Outstanding Dairy Family of the Year by the Weatherford Chamber of Commerce for 1982-1983.

Scott can be found in the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest survivor of a porcine valve replacement at 89 years and 172 days, and set a new record every day he lived after that.

Scott certainly enjoyed working, but occasionally he traveled with his wife and family. He visited all 50 states, and particularly enjoyed Alaska. He took an African safari, visited the Holy Land, Australia, and attended the 1984 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, Calif. Of course, Scott’s favorite place was home, riding his tractor and working his farm.

Scott’s family describes him as kind, loving, tender-hearted, hard-working, happy, other-centered, tenacious and a sweetheart, yet with a mischievous twinkle in his eyes! He was known by many names. He was “Sweetheart” to his wife, “Daddy” to his children, and “Granddaddy”, “Dandy” or “Dee” to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He loved

his family, loved his land and loved the Lord.

Scott was preceded in death by his son, Dwayne Edward Woody; his parents, John E. and Stella Mae Hotchkiss Woody; brother, Lavoy and wife, Georgia Ann Woody; sister, Mary Ruth and husband, George Earl Morrow, and their children, Eddie and Jay Woody; brother, Norris and his wife, Rowena Woody; brother, Johnny and wife, Dacy Woody; sister, Rena Mae and her husband, Raymond Robinson; and brother-in-law, the Rev. James Stroud and his wife, Lois.

Survivors include Scott is survived by his loving wife, Rena Mae of Springtown; son, Kenneth and his wife, Faye Daniels Woody, of Weatherford; son, Frank and his wife, Marina Johnston Woody, of Azle; daughter, Sally Woody of Springtown; grandchildren, Mary, Bob, Scott, Janet, Shannon, Sara, Shyloh, Lisa, Jamie, Amy, Maegan, Logan and Elizabeth; great-grandchildren, Trey, Anna, Wendy, Emily, Clay, Jenniann, Colt, Kate, Jenna, Leah, Katie, Grant, Taylor, Dylan, Wilson, John Thomas, and Hannah; eight great-great-grandchildren; and nieces and nephews, Carl, Raymond, Dan, Terri, Gary, Mary Jo, Jimmy, Bill, Bobby and Keith. He is also survived on his brother-in-law’s side by Jimmy, Dianna and Joey.

By mArk k. CAmPBeLLJuniors Dalton Aschmeyer and Emily Hash were se-

lected as the Springtown Optimist Club’s Texan and Tex-Anne for February.

Springtown High School Principal Scott McPherson presented the duo with certificates to commemorate the occasion.

Aschmeyer, son of Brandie Aschmeyer, is 17 and is ranked No. 36 out of the 215 students in the SHS Class of 2016.

He is a member of the National Society of High School Scholars and on the A and A/B honor rolls.

A tennis player, Aschmeyer also is a member of the SHS Spanish Club.

With his technical savvy, he runs the film/Teletron at football games and track meets at Porcupine Stadium.

He owns a taekwondo first degree black belt and is interested in computer design and programming.

Aschmeyer plans to attend either the University of North Texas or Mississippi State to seek a biomedical en-gineering degree with an eye toward becoming a doctor.

When asked by McPherson where he thought he might be in 10 years, Aschmeyer answered that he would likely still be in medical school.

He said he wants to be remembered as someone who “gave everyone a chance,” no matter their status or situ-ation.

Hash, the daughter of Brandon and Ronda Hash, has perfect attendance while in the top 10 percent of all SHS students.

A member of the A/B honor roll, the 16 year old is a member of the gifted and talented program.

Hash is enthralled with art and is a member of that club.

She scored a 3 in a VASE – Visual Arts Scholastic Event – competition.

She said she plans on attending Denton’s University of North Texas and attempt a double major of Drawing and Painting and Communication Design.

When asked about what kind of mark she will leave on SHS, Hash said she hoped people would remember her as “dependable and responsible”.

By marK K. camPBeLLAfter shining at the district

wrestling tournament, two Por-cupines continued to win and earned berths at the state event.

Sam Lund (competing at 182 pounds) and Caice Clark (145) were district champions.

At the Region II tourney at Frisco Liberty High School Feb. 13-14, both Porcupines excelled and claimed spots at the final event of the season – state at Garland Feb. 20-21.

Lund (26-3) reached the gold medal match. Seeded No. 3, the junior opened with a forfeit then defeated Liberty’s David Essien with a fall at 4 minutes.

Next, Lund won a 3-1 deci-sion over Jon Veath of The Colony.

That sent the Porcupine to the title match against Austin Von-

derheid of Frisco Centennial. Lund fell, 7-2, but, with his

silver medal, locked down a berth in Garland.

Clark, seeded No. 2 coming out of district, advanced on a forfeit to begin the tourney.

After a loss to Isaac Cordy of Prosper, Clark worked his way to qualifying.

He beat athletes from FW Arlington Heights, Grapevine, and Carrollton Creekview to reach the third place match.

There, he lost to Cordy again; however, Clark is state bound.

In Garland, Lund will face Zack Ramos of Lubbock Es-tacado while Clark will tangle with Charlie Boatman of Vista Ridge to open the tourney.

Coach Tye Adams said, “The kids competed very well; we were very pleased.”

By marK K. camPBeLLIn the first playoff basketball

game of the season, the Lady Porcupines battled to the very end.

However, Kennedale proved too much and the season ended for Springtown at the Saginaw Chisholm Trail HS gym Feb. 17, 85-59.

The game capped a year where “the seniors went out on a good note,” Coach Susan Croft said.

Standout Brooklyn Dauen-hauer concluded her remark-able career with a double-double – 26 points and 10

rebounds. She also grabbed a team-high 8 steals.

Fellow senior Kendyl Dean had 4 points.

All other players are under-classmen including freshman Molly Gideon who added 11 points and a pair of sophomores – Adrienne Easter and Khristin Mote – who netted 7 and 6, re-spectively.

The coach said, “I could not be more proud of the effort and heart of this team for the entire season.

“And, although we are losing some key players to graduation, the future is bright.”

The regular season ended for the Springtown varsity boys basketball team with a loss at Bridgeport Feb. 17, 73-49.

However, the playoff die had already been cast with the Por-cupines finishing third out of 8-4A

Earlier, SHS took down Cas-tleberry on Senior Night Feb. 13, 86-53.

Kruz Dominguez, one of the twelfth graders, poured in 21 points to pace the team.

Other scoring seniors: Jared Green (13), Zack Burton (9), and Kameron Hardeman (3).

Dawson Meek scored 14 points and Trent Partain net-ted 9 points as every Porcupine scored, all 11 of them.

In bi-district, Springtown will face the runner-up out of 7-4A, Godley, at the Aledo gym Monday, Feb. 23 at 6 p.m.

Some days are chilly and some are spring-like – either way, the SHS baseball and softball squads are getting the kinks worked out.

The Porcupine baseball teams hosted Stephenville in scrimmages Feb. 13.

Trips to Brewer and Mineral Wells helped SHS get ready for the regular season.

The softball squad, led by first-year coach Scott Mann, fell to Mansfield Summit in a “pretty chilly game,” he re-called.

The Lady Porcupines (0-1) are “progressing,” Mann said.

“I feel once we figure out how to relax and have some fun and cut our mistakes out, we will be a tough team to beat.”

The girls host Godley Friday and Gainesville Monday.

At a boys powerlifting meet at Saginaw Feb. 12, the Porcu-pines finished behind Brewer and ahead of the hosts in final points.

Two Porcupines won their weight classes. Jarod Nelson’s final total of 1,045 pounds

placed him first among 165 pounders. Big man Jesse Springfield won the 275-pound class with a total of 1,325.

Nelson and Springfield both finished third in the Best Lifters formula.

Other Porcupines shone, too.

Guillermo Pando was second at 198 pounds with a total of 910.

Martin Medina was the runner up at 220 with 1,215; he was the best deadlifter at the event and Springfield was third.

Brandon Santos took second at

181 with 960 pounds.Austin Chenault finished third

at 148 with 805 pounds and Omar Lopez was fourth with 800.

Michael Ward took fourth with 940 at 275 pounds and Barrett Tedder ended up fifth at 165 with 955 pounds.

We now have Hugh, Jane, and William D. in Texas, while Samuel Woody Jr. remains in

Roane County to pay off debts be-tween 1848 and 1850.

During that same time, Samuel Woody Sr. abandons the log raft which was headed to Texas to remain in Caro, Illinois, in Massac County, a point on the Illinois side of the Ohio River, to earn money.

In March,1849, the Farmers left Fannin County and journeyed to Pe-ter’s Colony, today known as Fort Worth. Here they built a log cabin atop a 100-foot bluff above the Trin-ity River.

Soon after the cabin’s completion, the Comanche Indians burned the Farmers’ cabin to the ground – as a result they had to camp out in a tent.

In May, 1849, Company F of the Second United States Dragoons, con-sisting of 42 men under the command of Brevet Major Ripely Arnold, ar-rived at the location where the Farm-ers were camping out, to select a site for a military fort.

On June 6, 1849, construction of the military fort called Fort Worth was begun at the location suggested by George Farmer. The fort would be constructed where the Farmer log cabin once stood.

The Tarrant County Criminal Courts and Tarrant County Courthouse stand today where the original George and Jane Woody Farmer log cabin was built and the military fort named Fort Worth was constructed.

The Farmer’s are considered the “First White Settler Family of Fort Worth” where they established the first white settler claim. Jane Woody Farmer was the first white woman and their three-year-old daughter Sarah Ann Farmer (1846) the first white child in Tarrant County.

Jane’s husband, George, owned the first business in Fort Worth, a trad-ing post, on the fort property, where he supplied the fort’s soldiers and the surrounding burgeoning community with essential goods and services. In exchange for the cooperation of the George P. Farmer family, they retained the land they first claimed around the fort.

A Texas Historical Marker honor-

ing the George Farmer Fam-ily is located at Exchange Avenue at the Livestock Ex-change Build-ing. The Farm-ers are buried in the Forest Hill Cemetery in Fort Worth.

W i l l i a m D. and Eliza-beth’s son George Pres-ton Woody was born

April 2, in Fannin County. He was named for his great-grandfather, Jus-tice George Preston Woody who laid out the township of Kingston, Roane County, Tennessee.

As a child, he recalls observing Comanche stock raids in his fam-ily homestead and the outlaw Jesse James camping out on the home-stead grounds. Great-grandmother of George’s wife, Matilda Amanda West, was a second cousin of Sir Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., physician and

poet.George Preston Woody died prema-

turely at age 40, and is buried in Veal Station Cemetery. He was the father of two successful New York Wall Street attorneys.

Great-grand Uncle Charles Lorenzo Woody (1869-1984) served as As-sistant District Attorney of Wise and Dallas Counties, then served as coun-sel for the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company in New York.

Robert Houston Woody (1877) served as counsel for the Ocean Acci-dent and Guaranty Company in New York.

A third son, my great-grandfather, Joseph Casner Woody, had a success-ful Livestock Commission Company housed in the “Wall Street of the West” also known as the Exchange Building in the historic Fort Worth Stockyards.

In the fall of 1850, Samuel Woody Sr. and the Samuel Woody, Jr. families reunite in Caro, Illinois, for the trip to Texas. The Woody families along with the Matt Tucker family embarked on board a riverboat.

The journey took the families down the Mississippi River and up the Red River to Shreveport, Louisiana, re-

quiring six days to complete the trip. Upon arrival they drove an oxen drawn wagon across the wilds of East Texas to the military post of Fort Worth. The families made camp approximately two miles north of Fort Worth.

The William D. Woody family re-united with the family there in White Settlement.

The Woody families remained at White Settlement for refuge until their homesteads were established. With the assistance of Comanche Indian interpreter guides, the Woody fam-ily and other early white settlers were free to explore a portion of northeast Parker County that had been surveyed.

However the friendly Comanche Indians told them that much better land existed further up Ash Creek. This beautiful expanse of land was ex-plored and surveyed by the families.

The trustworthy relationship estab-lished between the Comanche Indi-ans and the Woody families remained eternal.

HISTORICALHIGHLIGHTS

Laurie Moseley

Laurie Moseley is an author, archeologistand historian who lives in Springtown. He is the

director of Springtown’s Legends Museum.

When you’ve been married a long time – the Bride and I are pushing 40 years together – you eventually

run out of new things to do as a couple.But, we recently found some origi-

nal terrain, something new to share: We both got sick at the same time.

(Now we had been sore at the same time – for a few days after Feb. 27, 2004 when a drunk hit and rolled our truck [it’s true: some days are way more memorable than others], but never sick at the same time.)

Recently we shared being puny to-gether, including wolfing down over-the-counter meds while staring into each other’s reddened, watery eyes.

Because I’m a notoriously poor

sleeper – I’ve been binge-watching Sea Hunt against my will at 3:30 many mornings these past few months – I’m used to seeing the dead of night.

I write columns, eat Cherrios, and watch Lloyd Bridges solve underwa-ter dilemmas.

The other day, the Bride was felled by whatever it is that’s going around; it’s always called “the crud.”

Since we’ve enjoyed some warm winter days, the culprit was deemed to be the dreaded mountain cedar; what-ever the case, there were mighty bouts of stereo coughing, sneezing, and nose blowing that made sleep next to im-possible.

Throughout our decades together, I have had a few instances where I was slowed by ailments – a couple of flu incidents, nocturnal toothaches, and

some elective surgeries.

But the Bride’s con-stitution is un-usually mighty. I’m the guy who gets sea-sick, the one who gets indi-gestion from hidden onions.

She got pneu-monia back in the 1980’s just when we had friends arrive

from Colorado; she could not get out of bed then. But that’s the only time I can remember her really waylaid – un-til now when she got the p-new-moan-

ya again.Before that, however, we both were

hacking and miserable; no one was healthy enough to care for the other.

There’s nothing like getting sick to mess up your schedule. Like most couples, we have stuff we need to do mapped out months in advance. When that’s knocked a-kilter, the world gets weird.

As noted, being up at strange times is not unusual to me.

I’ve written columns at 4 a.m. – this one’s being typed at 3:20 – and, back in my fire department days, I leapt out of bed in a pitch black bedroom and found myself in another pitch black bedroom five minutes later – only this one was several hundred degrees hot-ter.

So, I’ve always had a queer sleep

schedule.But the Bride is the penultimate

anti-morning person. She would’ve made a horrible firefighter; the engine won’t wait for two cups of coffee to be consumed before even considering moving from the covers.

As I write, she struggles in the bed-room, filled with Sprite and phlegm and surrounded by piles of tissues. I’m in the same boat but not quite as bad, so, between coughing fits, I bring her meds.

I had been searching for something special to herald our 40th anniversary coming this August. Sharing diseased funk was not on the list.

But it’s something new, and…oh, I see it’s 3:30. Time for Sea Hunt.

In sickness and in health...well, mainly sickness

ON YOURMARK

Mark K. Campbell

Mark K. Campbell is the Epigraph editor and should buy stock in Robitussin.

So, how are you doing?”

Sometimes that’s the only thing we can think to ask. Perhaps the issue is illness, grief, job loss, re-bellious children (or

parents)…I could go on and on. Some-times the hits just keep on coming.

I’ve heard it said that you are ei-ther in a problem, just came out of a problem, or are just about to enter into a problem. (To keep going with my recent theme, we’ll call them “situ-ations.”). Nobody – I MEAN NO-BODY – gets a pass.

So, we’ve all either asked or have been asked the question, “So, how are you doing?”

A common answer: “We’re just trying to take it one day at a time.”

How else can you take it, really? We only GET one day at a time, even in the best of times. So, how can we take those words from cliche to founda-tional reality? I’m think-ing of these words from the Bible:

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. ‘The Lord is my portion,’ says my soul, ‘therefore I will hope in him.’” (Lamentations 3:22-24, English Stan-dard Version)

Many who grew up in church are familiar with the hymn based on that passage: “Great is Thy Faithfulness.”

If you are unfamiliar with the book of Lamentations, you may think that this was obviously written by some-one who has had an easy path. Cer-tainly someone who could write about God’s faithfulness and His mercies

One day at a timebeing new every morning could not possibly understand the struggles that the rest of us face.

I’d like to remind you (and me) that those words come from a book called LAMENTATIONS!

This is a book of the Bible com-posed entirely of expressions of grief in poetry and song. The author is grieving over the destruction of Jeru-salem, the Hebrew people’s infidelity to God, and punishment at the hands of the Babylonians.

Note the verses immediately pre-ceding the ones above:

“He drove into my kidneys the ar-rows of his quiver; I have become the laughingstock of all peoples, the object of their taunts all day long. He has filled me with bitterness; he has sated me with worm-wood. He has made my teeth grind on gravel, and made me cower in ashes; my soul is bereft of peace; I have forgotten what happiness is; so I say, ‘My endurance has perished; so has my hope from the Lord.’ Remember my affliction and my wan-derings, the wormwood and the gall! My soul continually remembers it and is bowed

down within me. But [wait for it – em-phasis mine] this I call to mind, and therefore I have hope.” (3:13-21)

This is not someone who has it easy. This is someone who knows that there is only one knot to hang onto at the end of the rope; someone who knows that his life matters to God no matter what it may feel like today.

The Texas Legislature is back in session, and Texas Farm Bureau (TFB) members from across the state are working with their law-

makers to ensure the future of agricul-ture is bright.

“Every year, TFB members from Parker County work with legislators on important issues,” Don Smelley, Parker County Farm Bureau president said. “We talk about the issues in our area and the things we’d like to see ac-

complished.”This year, TFB’s legislative priori-

ties include: protecting the water rights of farmers, ranchers and landowners; protecting private property rights af-fected by the Endangered Species Act; supporting long-term funding for road construction and maintenance; and continuing to advocate for changes to the eminent domain process to better protect private property right.

“We work hard to have good rela-tionships with our legislators,” Smell-ey said. “We explain why the issues

are important to agriculture and rural Texas.”

Parker County Farm Bureau en-courages its members to stay in touch with their legislators throughout the session.

PEOPLE’S CHOICE AWARDS 2012, 2013 VOTED #1 INSURANCE AGENCY IN AZLE

HALEY CARTER

Parker County

Springtown INSURANCE DIRECTORY

Gov. Greg Ab-bott on Feb. 12 announced he had joined a coalition of 24 governors in

signing and sending a letter to President Obama that urges the nation’s chief executive “to re-consider his threat” to veto leg-islation approving the Keystone XL pipeline.

“With one stroke of a pen, you have the power to give thousands of Americans the shot at a good-paying job that will help them provide for their families and get ahead in a tight economy,” the letter says.

The pipeline runs from a terminal in the province of Al-berta, through Saskatchewan and Manitoba, then cuts down through several states to Cush-ing, Oklahoma. From there, a pipeline would carry product to refineries in Port Arthur and Houston.

Legislation authorizing the pipeline recently passed with bipartisan votes in both cham-bers of Congress, Abbott said, and he quoted language in the letter asserting economic and

energy security benefits of the pipeline project for states along its route and for the whole na-tion.

The letter also says: “Ac-cording to the State Depart-ment’s own analysis, the Key-stone XL pipeline will create an estimated 42,000 American jobs. Given the number of jobs at stake, it is no surprise that the project has garnered the support of many of our nation’s largest labor unions, including the AFL-CIO Building & Con-struction Trades Department, the International Brotherhood of Teamsters and the Laborers’ International Union of North America. But the real econom-ic impact extends far beyond numbers on a page. As one la-bor union representative put it, ‘this project is not just a pipe-line; it is, in fact, a lifeline.’ ”

According to general figures for Texas compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 10,877 members of labor unions in 2013 and 11,205 in 2014.

Panel passes ‘carry’ billsThe Senate State Affairs

Commit-tee on Feb. 12 heard tes-t i m o n y on SB 11 by Sen. B r i a n Birdwell, R-Gran-b u r y , l e g i s l a -tion that w o u l d p e r m i t c o n -c e a l e d handgun l i c e n s e holders to carry concealed weapons on the campuses of public universities but allow-ing private universities to ban “CHL carry” on their campus-es.

The panel also considered SB 17 by Sen. Craig Estes, R-Wichita Falls, which would al-low concealed handgun license holders to carry handguns openly, either holstered on the belt or under the shoulder.

Both bills were approved on votes of 7-2, with the panel’s

Democrats, Judith Zaffirini of Laredo and Rodney Ellis of Houston, voting against.

Comptroller distributes rev-enue

The state comptroller’s of-fice on Feb. 11 announced cit-ies, counties, transit systems and special purpose taxing dis-tricts will be sent February lo-cal sales tax allocations totaling $873.1 million.

The February 2015 allocation is up 8.9 percent compared to February 2014, Texas Comp-troller Glenn Hegar said, and state sales tax revenue in Janu-ary was $2.56 billion, up 11.2 percent compared to January 2014. “This allocation marks the 58th consecutive month of year-over-year growth and is indicative of a dynamic and diverse economy that continues to generate business investment and spending in Texas,” Hegar added.

Business spending led the growth in revenue and receipts from the manufacturing and wholesale trade sectors were up sharply, and, “in spite of the recent decline in crude oil

prices, tax receipts from the oil and natural gas mining sec-tor also grew strongly,” Hegar said. His office will monitor the impact that lower oil prices on the state economy, he add-ed.

Fingerprinting practice changes

Texas Department of Public Safety announced, effective Feb. 6, it would stop the prac-tice of collecting “all 10 fin-gerprints” from driver’s license and state identification card ap-plicants.

The department will continue to comply with a 2005 “image verification system” state law requiring the collection of an applicant’s facial image and thumbprints or fingerprints.

According to DPS litera-ture, “Texas law authorizes fingerprint-based criminal his-tory checks for designated volunteers and employment or licensing applicants in a wide variety of areas such as child care providers, teachers, secu-rity and armed guards, security system contractors, and a host of others.”

TxTag issues are addressedTexas Department of Trans-

portation on Feb. 6 announced personnel and resources have been added because of “in-creased service demands re-lated to recent TxTag toll road billing activities” related to in-accurate billing and other cus-tomer service issues.

TxDOT said its vendor, Xe-rox, has expanded to three call centers around the state, added more than 60 new customer service representatives to an-swer the phones and is working to expand those capabilities as needed, according to an agency news release. And, because pay-by-web activity is increas-ing, TxDOT plans to make its website easier to use.

“We know that resolving is-sues will not happen overnight, but we are listening to all con-cerned parties, are taking im-mediate action, and seeing progress,” said TxDOT Execu-tive Director Joe Weber.

Last week’s movie, Jupiter Ascending (Movie Man No. 1126, a 3), was delayed from the previous summer.

Like many postponed films that get jettisoned into the dead zone of February, Jupiter As-cending was not very good.

Kingsmen: The Secret Ser-vice was also pushed back – from late last year until this month. But, in a rarity, it’s a major studio February release that isn’t horrible.

About the filmHere’s yet another movie

based on a comic book/graphic novel. (A trailer before Kings-men was for Marvel’s reboot of The Fantastic Four [a vague yet interesting coming attraction] and proves that the genre’s popularity is far from ebbing.)

Aside from the comic book angle, there’s always some-thing interesting – especially to American audiences – about the British spy game.

The James Bond series is one of the most successful in cin-ematic history. (And that num-ber of almost $2 billion interna-tionally will certainly rise with the arrival of Spectre later this year on Nov. 6.)

On TV decades ago, Ameri-cans ate up the terrific Aveng-ers series with the dapper John Steed (Patrick Macnee) and slinky Emma Peel (Diana Rigg) – even though real old-timers and fans will recall Steed’s first big partner, Cathy Gale (Honor Blackman).

(Speaking of the The Aveng-ers, a big screen version – much anticipated in 1998 – remains of the most shockingly bad movies to ever disappoint. The Movie Man gave it a 3 and that was generous. Despite starring Ralph Fiennes, Uma Thurman, and Sean Connery, the movie is astonishingly poor. It arrived during the spate of remaking TV shows into movies and the mark could not have been missed more.)

The BBC sends over a slew of Britishy espionage/myster-

ies modern and old school and local PBS stations are jammed with them, too.

So we clearly like our veddy, veddy snooty yet suave crime fighters from across the pond.

And we have another one in a super natty Englishman Harry Hart in Kingsmen.

The plot (spoilers)A Kingsman has been killed

– Lancelot (Jack Davenport who will look familiar; he’s Keira Knightley’s love interest in the Pirates of the Caribbean series) – so a new one must be found and trained.

Each Kingsman brings in a candidate. Hart (Colin Firth) chooses the son of a spy who earlier saved his life; how-ever, the boy, Eggsy (Taron Egerton), while highly-talent-ed and smart, is nothing but a young thief and general punk.

Egerton enters the program and begins to shine in training despite the fact that most of the upper-crust recruits disdain him – except for Roxy (Sophie Cookson).

Meanwhile, evil billionaire Valentine (Samuel L. Jackson) is tired of trying to save the world with his money. He has a plan to rid the earth of most of its inhabitants by having them fight to the death when he flips a switch in cell phones that af-

fects anyone nearby with mur-derous rage.

Only a few elite will join Jackson in repopulating the world. After the globe’s riffraff destroy themselves, the earth will be a better place.

Firth discovers this plan first-hand to double shocking results (see Best scene).

Soon only Egerton, Cookson, and Kingsman Merlin (Mark Strong) can stop Jackson and his deadly, steel-legged accom-plice Gazelle (Sofia Boetella).

What works (spoiler)Firth is just what we Ameri-

cans want in our British secret agent – a calm hurricane that you don’t want to rile who also happens to have a variety of

deadly toys secreted about his person and attire.

The bar fight that the original coming attraction highlighted is fun. (Too bad so much of it was revealed in the previews).

Jackson has a great time and utters the best lines (and also en-joys the most shocking moment with Firth after the Best scene).

Strong and Michael Caine shine, and the lead is handled well enough by Egerton.

There are special effects aplenty, with some slow motion spinning about to go with chop-

socky action.The earlier sequences of the

recruits training are exciting, especially one where the sky-diving crew is told mid-flight that one of them doesn’t have a parachute.

Best sceneJackson tries out his rage-

inducing concept on a racist small Kentucky church; Firth is in attendance.

When the phone switch is flipped, the vile congregation – the sign outside says “America Is Doomed” – turns on itself in a stunning blood-thirsty scene led by the killing machine Firth.

It’s all set to the instrumen-tal section of Lynyrd Skynyrd’s “Freebird” and must be seen to be believed.

It’s gory, hilarious, disturb-ing, blasphemous, and ultra-violent all at the same time – and will be too much for some viewers.

What doesn’t work (spoiler)Some of the dialogue is not

discernible because of the ac-cents. That got a little frustrat-ing.

Pet lovers will be shocked at the scene where recruits are told to shoot their pet dog.

Another sequence where a mom tries to hack through a door to kill her terrified young daughter is unsettling.

The ratingThere’s just a whiff of sen-

suality; otherwise this is a hard action-movie-ish R.

Summing upBecause the movie walks

the line between homage and mockery, the feeling of preten-tiousness that these self-aware sorts of movies reek of is not present here. Kingsmen is fun.

Stylish ultra-violent spy homage packs a punch

veterans – come take your seat at the monthly luncheon being held in your honor in White Settlement.

At 11 a.m. on the last Fri-day of each month, local veterans gather in the banquet room at Hawai-ian Falls Water Park in White Settlement to swap stories and share ex-periences from their time in the service during WWII.

History en-thusiast Kevin Boldt began providing the veterans with these lunches last summer after he was unable to find an exist-

Honoring the ‘Greatest’ Area WWII vets encouraged to attend monthly luncheon

ing group to join.“I've always been interested

in WWII history and the vet-erans, so I started looking for a group where I could go visit

with the vets,” Boldt said. “I couldn't find one, so I de-cided, well, I'll just start my own.”

He was sur-prised to have 15 attendees at the first meet-ing, in June 2014 at a Gold-en Corral in Fort Worth.

“In July, we had 24 come,” he said. “Now

at our meetings we have any-where from 45 to 50 veterans that come every month,”

These numbers led Boldt

to acquire the larger meeting space in White Settlement.

Azle resident Mark Dona-hew, who shares Boldt's interest in WWII history and veterans, has been working to get local vets to attend the luncheon.

“I've always tracked down WWII vets – I've been inter-viewing them for a lot of years,” said Donahew.

“We're trying to get the word out so we can get more of them to come.”

Donahew was able to pro-vide transportation to the lun-cheon for Springtown resident Fred Purser, age 90, a WWII Navy serviceman who spent two years in the Solomon Is-lands during the war.

Purser said he enjoys the monthly luncheon and hates to ever miss it.

“I love to go over there,” Purser said. “We eat, and then we have a program. They also

honor usually two veterans who've either been wounded or were killed in action. It’s really great.”

Both Boldt and Donahew said their group includes veter-ans from all walks of life and every branch of military ser-vice.

“They have regular attendees of several POWs,” said Dona-hew. “One of them was in the Bataan Death March, and an-other one was shot down over Japan in a B-29.”

Boldt said, “Two of the la-dies that come are Navy WWII vets – so we have a little bit of everything.”

The luncheon is paid for out of Boldt’s own pocket, along with donations which are ac-cepted to help provide for the meal and the banquet hall rent-al.

He and Donahew are also working on ways to provide

more area veterans with trans-portation to and from the meet-ings.

“It's a big project, but I re-ally enjoy doing it – it's a great opportunity for me,” said Boldt. “The whole emphasis is to honor the veterans, to show them appreciation, and just give them respect. They're the

“We have anywhere be-tween 45 to 50 veterans that come every

month.Kevin Boldt

Event organizerGreatest Generation, and sadly, they won't be around much lon-ger.”

Everyone is welcome to at-tend the luncheon; many of the veterans are accompanied by a family member each month.

“The vets know they are kind of the last ones, so they like to get together with other vets,” said Boldt. “They’re willing to share their stories now and to talk about their experiences. And I’m sure there's more vets out there.”

The next luncheon will be held at 11 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 27, at the Hawaiian Falls Banquet Room, 8905 Clifford Street in White Settlement.

RSVP and a donation for the meal by non-veteran attendees is required.

For more information, con-tact Kevin Boldt at 817-706-9933 or email him at krboldt1@aol.com.

Members of the Army Air Corps from World War II gathered for the monthly meeting.

WWII veterans from the Navy and Marines are part of the group that meets.

Hegar said Feb. 11 that state sales tax revenue in January was $2.56 billion, up 11.2 percent compared to January 2014.

Hegar will send cities, coun-ties, transit systems and special purpose taxing districts their February local sales tax alloca-tions totaling $873.1 million, up 8.9 percent compared to Febru-ary 2014.

The sales tax figures repre-sent December sales reported by monthly tax filers as well as October, November, and De-cember sales by businesses that report tax quarterly.

Locally, the town of Lakeside had the only negative numbers to report – but even those are minor following a year in which the town saw its sales tax rev-enues double on the heels of a voter-approved one percent hike in its rate.

Lakeside’s February sales tax revenue of $17,714 was down a mere 1.52 percent from Feb-ruary 2014 when it received $17,988. The town collected $30,830 in the first two months of 2014; so far in 2015, it’s re-ceived $27,600, a decrease of 10.47 percent compared with last year.

Similarly, the city of Reno raised its tax rate in the general election in November 2014, so it will enjoy 12 months of 100 percent increases in its revenues compared with 2014.

Reno’s February sales tax

revenue of $13,927 is 107.84 percent more than the $6,700 it received in February 2014. Year-to-date, the city has received $19,478. That rep-resents a 70.24 percent in-crease from 2014 when it had collected $11,478 after the first two months of the calendar year.

Sanctuary received $1,810 for February, up 65.65 per-cent from $1,093 in February 2014. The city’s year-to-date total is $3,052, a 48.07 per-cent increase from $2,061 for the same period in 2014.

The city of Pelican Bay re-ceived $1,581 for February, a 6.10 percent increase over February 2014 revenue of $1,490. However, its year-to-date total of $2,960 is down 9.61 percent from $3,275 at the same time last year.

Azle recognized a 6.34 per-cent increase from February 2014 revenue of $219,798 with $233,740 for February. So far in 2015, the city has received $403,096, up 6.98 percent from $376,789 in the first two months of 2014.

Azle’s Crime Control and Prevention District received $43,147 for February, up 9.18 percent from $39,516 in February 2014. Year-to-date, the CCPD has received $75,944, up 9.15 percent from $69,576 through Feb-ruary 2014.

The Azle Municipal Develop-ment District performed even better, receiving $44,713 for

February. That’s 23.17 per-cent more than February 2014

when it received $36,302. The District is also up 20.55

percent from $62,465 in the first two months of 2014 to

$75,306 so far in 2015.Springtown received

$94,932 for February, an 18.60 percent increase from $80,038 in February 2014. For the year, the city has re-ceived $164,164, up 15.08 percent from $142,648 this time last year.

Parker County received $1,026,836 for February, a whopping 50.66 percent in-crease from $681,551 in February 2014. Year-to-date, the county has received $1,596,632, a 26.81 percent increase from $1,258,980 re-corded for the first two months of 2014.

Statewide, Hegar sent out 1,150 payments total-ing $569,759,229 for Febru-ary, 8.31 percent more than $526,025,107 in February 2014. So far this year, he’s sent out payments totaling $971,611,998, or 7.81 percent more than $901,174,001 for the same period in 2014.
