Human Trafficking Theme of Eastland Civic League Program
Human Trafficking Theme of Eastland Civic League Program
Members of Eastland Civic League & Garden Club and visitors at last Wednesday’s lunch greeted speaker Attorney James Winters. Winters, from the Texas State Attorney General’s Office, presented an informative program regarding Human Trafficking. He accurately described his theme as a “dark subject” but one that everyone should be aware of and never believe “It’s not in my community”. Winters advised that all transportation routes across the state of Texas will see some human trafficking- even in smaller communities. 02/16/2023 12:00 AM

It Seems To Me
It Seems To Me
The universe is designed with both physical and moral laws. We do not live in a make-believe world but in a world of intelligent design. And that intelligent Designer is God. We couldn’t have a space program and ignore the law of gravity. We would not have bridges that span lakes and valleys without structural laws. We have moral law that establishes dignity and respect for each other. But a democracy, where the majority rules, will be destroyed if we attempt to remove moral law. 02/16/2023 12:00 AM
Local Beekeeper presents program at Ranger Lions Club
Local Beekeeper presents program at Ranger Lions Club
Lance Hawvermale, known to most through his position at Ranger College as Dean of Humanities and Fine Arts - and as a successful book author surprised some at Ranger Lions Club recently with his talk about the ins and outs, joys and hazards of being a beekeeper. Invited to give the program by Lion Dean Mason, Hawvermale proved to be an enthusiastic beekeeper and provided fascinating insights into the lives of bees and production of honey. He reminded that around 1/3 of our food is available because of pollination. “Essentially, when the bees go away, we could go away,” he said. A combination of circumstances are harming the bee population, he added, including a lack of rain, lack of forage, use of pesticides and change of climate. 02/16/2023 12:00 AM
