Howe's That
I really don't think the
casual Howe Bulldog fan
understands how good your
team is and has been since
the middle of 2014. You
can read the Bulldogs
article, but 18-5 during that
period is remarkable.
Considering who the five
losses are to makes it nearly
impossible to get one's head
around. If you're a Bulldog
fan and you're not excited
about this brand of football,
you may not ever be
satisfied because this is just
about as good as it gets. It's
been since the 1940s that
Howe has been this
dominant week after week.
Not even Jim Fryar's 1980s
'Dogs put together an 18-5
stretch. With all that has
been accomplished, Howe
still has to face what some
calls the fifth toughest
district in all of Texas.
When the weather cools in a
few weeks, fall football
should be as fun around
here as it has been in many
many years.
Michelle Carney, who has
taken photos of many many
sports activities in Howe
had surgery last week and
missed her first football
game in ten years. The
team responded by signing
a football and giving it to
her as a "get well soon"
gift. We are hoping for a
speedy recovery for our
mighty photographer.
Special thanks to Tammy
Griffin, Keri Harvey and
Loretta Anderson this week
for taking photos.

Hit and run reported at Quinlan Ford, 44-13
The Howe Bulldogs, with
the 44-13 win over Quinlan
Ford on Friday night have
now won 18 of their last 23
games. Those five losses
have come to Gunter who is
currently ranked first in
Class 3A, Division II, West
Rusk (12-2 in 2015),
Pottsboro (11-1 in 2015 and
ranked first in state most of
the year), Waskom (16-0
state champions and ranked
first in state most of the
year), and Leonard in 2014
which was an overtime loss
to a team that came in 8-1
and eventually lost to
Waskom to end their playoff
run. In other words, if
you're planning on beating
the Howe Bulldogs these
days, you better be one elite
team overloaded with speed
and raw talent. And to top it

off, it doesn't seem to
matter what classification
you are in. The 'Dogs
have now beaten state

Bowie and now 4A,
Division I Quinlan Ford.
The Panthers of Quinlan
have a high school
enrollment 775 which is
446 more students than
Howe High's 329. To
break that down, Quinlan
Ford would have
approximately 388 juniors
and seniors. Half of that
means they have 194 junior
and senior boys. That
compares to Howe's
approximate 82 junior and

HMS honors first responders
Over the past two years the
Howe Middle School has a
program called "Monday
Fun Day" where speakers
visit to discuss various
topics such as community
involvement to motivation.
Last Monday that fell the
day after 9/11, HMS
decided instead of a speaker
to talk to them, they wanted
to honor local first
responders.
As an afterthought in
planning the program, with
first responder recruiting
down all over the country
due to the extreme turn in
violence in recent years, this
not only was a way to honor
those brave men and
women, but also may serve
to plant a thought about

emotional speech on Monday.
the first responders and the entire
middle school student body
followed by an emotional speech by
HMS teacher Jackie Dawsey, whose
husband Bruce is a Sherman Police
Officer. Dawsey talked about the
long nights she would await for him
to come home and understanding
that the day could come that he may
not return home.
Dawsey said that once the speech
got going, he had trouble holding
back emotions. "I couldn't look at
her. I hadn't head it. It was very
emotional to hear someone that you
love and care about speak those
kind words and talk about your
life." said Dawsey who is also a
Howe ISD Board of Trustees
member. "You think you know
how your job impacts them, how it
impacts your family, but until you
hear them say that to a large group,
you really don't know."
HMS Assistant Principal Wes
Rhoten talked about his father's life
of being a police officer and the
impact it made on his life. "My dad
had to work two or three jobs to
support his family. He had to miss
our games to serve and protect
others. That was the kind of man he
was. That was his duty."
Rhoten before leaving the podium
thanked all of the first responders
for their daily selfless sacrifice.
A student essay on EMTs was then
read by Mariana Cano and Haley
Richardson read an essay on law
enforcement.
Howe Police Chief Carl Hudman
decided not to talk about the heroic
job they do on a daily basis, but
rather focused on the community
of Howe. "I've been here since
2013 and this is the best
community I've ever been in.
There's no place quite like Howe,
Texas." said Hudman.
Hudman's disarmingly calm stoic
presence was well received by the
students of Howe Middle School.
He informed the students that any
self-serving person who is in law
enforcement will not last long. He
made it a clear point that each and
everyone wearing a badge of some
sort signed up to be in that position
because they truly have a sense of
compassion for people and to
protect them.
Perhaps the most emotional aspect
of the honoring was a speech given
by April Key, the wife of the late
Chad Key.

Two teenagers and a dog
Howe resident Lynn Sasser wanted to
commend two teenage boys who, in
the Calder Street area, took in a white
dog that had been following them.
Sasser stopped the young men and
asked them why the dog wasn't in the
back of their truck instead following
behind. They responded that they dog
had been following them for two days.
She armed the young men with five
dollars and told them to buy the
dog some food.
"People think teenagers are bad kids,
but I'll take those boys over anyone."
said Sasser. "They were so nice and
polite and I wish I knew who their
mother was."
The news these days is so negative.
Well, at least outside of our little
bubble.

Faith
by Debbie Wallis
“Not everyone who says to Me,
‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom
of Heaven, but he who does the will
of My Father who is in Heaven will
enter,” Matthew 7:21.
In Romans 10:9, Paul said that those
who confess Jesus as Lord are saved
but Jesus said that not everyone who
calls Him Lord will enter His
Kingdom. One of Satan’s most
devastating lies is the ones that
convince people they are Christians
when in fact they are not following
Christ. Many people say they are a
Christian and don’t even know what
Christ has said. The heart of man is
evidenced by what they do, not by
what they say. A person’s actions
show evidence of what they truly
believe. A Christian’s actions
should reflect the life and teachings
of Christ. First thing about a
Christian should be the evidence of
overwhelming love and gratefulness
to Jesus for His sacrifice on the
cross. If you believe He died for
your sins then you will agree with
what He says is true on how to live.
I am never surprised by the actions
of the unsaved but in the last…oh,
20 years…I’ve been more and more
surprised by the church, the people
that confess to be Christians, do and
say they believe. “You will
recognize them by their fruits. Are
grapes gathered from thorn bushes,
or figs from thistles? So, every
healthy tree bears good fruit, but the
diseased tree bears bad fruit. A
healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit,
nor can a diseased tree bear good
fruit. Every tree that does not bear
good fruit is cut down and thrown
into the fire. Thus you will
recognize them by their fruits,”
Matthew 7:16-20. Our culture
has turned “good works” into
tolerance and accepting all sins.
Jesus always called out the sin
because of how much He loved
the people. He is God and He
knows that sin produces
separation from Him and eternal
death. We need to love people in
that Christ-like manner! Its unChrist like to agree with sin or to
promote sin by aligning yourself
with the world. It is an oxymoron
to be a Pro-Choice Christian.
That is against the nature and
word of God. It is an oxymoron
to be a part of the break down of
marriage and families. That is
against the nature and word of
God. The only way you can ever
produce good fruit is to know
God’s word, believe it is Him,
and obey His word. If you
haven’t made Him Lord, you
simply do not believe He is the all
knowing, all present, all powerful
God. There are lots of gods that
people have concocted but only
one Who will remain on the
throne at judgment. God the
Father said Jesus the Son is the
ONLY way to Him and
everlasting life. It’s a choice to
believe or disbelieve, to say you
believe and not have a desire to
know and do what He says is a
contradiction. “Jesus replied, ‘All
who love Me will do what I say.
My Father will love them, and
We will come and make Our
home with each of them. Anyone
who doesn’t love Me will not
obey Me. And remember, My
words are not My own. What I am
telling you is from the Father who
sent Me,” John 14:23-24.
Many people think because they
are a Christian because of the
family they are born into. Many
think because they are kind, give
to the poor and leave others to
their own business that that makes
them a Christian. Others think if
they are a good person and go to
church they are a Christian.
Many made a decision to follow
Christ but went their own way.
They thought the decision itself
made them a Christian. But what
makes you a Christian is that you
follow Jesus, not with one
decision, but with your daily
decisions. You follow His Word
because you love Christ who
saved you from this wicked
world. Before you decide if it is or
is not right you check with the One
you follow. You live according to
Jesus not according to actors, sports
figures, musicians, politicians, polls
or media. Your decisions will never
be in or out of touch with today
because Jesus remains the same
yesterday, today and tomorrow. This
sinful world is temporary to a
Christian so allegiance with it is not
a consideration. A Christian…a
follower of Christ, will not deny His
deity, His Lordship or question the
absolute Truth of His Word. “So
why do you keep calling me ‘Lord,
Lord!’ when you don’t do what I
say?” Luke 6:46.
The Bible is complete and gives us
Page #8
wisdom for life. He created all
people and loves all people.
“Beloved, do not let this one thing
escape your notice: With the Lord
a day is like a thousand years, and
a thousand years are like a day.
The Lord is not slow to fulfill his
promise as some understand
slowness, but is patient with you,
because He wants everyone to turn
from sin and no one to be lost,” 2
Peter 3:8-9. Faith in Jesus,
believing He is Who He says He is,
and staying in His word is a
Christians survival guide.
If you don’t have a Bible please
contact me at
[email protected]. You are
blessed to be a blessing.

Texas History Minute:
Dr. Ken Bridges
Dr. Bridges is a Texas native,
writer, and history professor. He
can be reached at
[email protected].
For years, he was considered to be
the most trusted man in America.
Texan Walter Cronkite became the
face of the news for millions of
Americans as television news
began to make its appearance and
to make an impact on the nation’s
consciousness. As one of the most
well-known journalists in the
nation, Cronkite helped guide
television viewers through the
some of the most important news
events of the 1960s and 1970s.
Cronkite was born in St. Joseph,
Missouri, in 1916. His father was a
dentist. He was interested in the
news at an early age. While the
family lived in Kansas City for a
time, he had a job delivering
newspapers. The family moved to
Houston in 1926 where Cronkite
had an active childhood with
school and as a member of the Boy
Scouts. His interest in journalism
expanded while at San Jacinto High
School when he became editor of
the school newspaper.
In 1933, he enrolled at the
University of Texas. He was very
active at The Daily Texan, the
university’s own newspaper. At
the same time, he also wrote parttime with The Houston Post. In
1935, he left UT to take a full-time
job writing for a wire service and
for the now-defunct Houston
Press. Shortly afterward, he
became a radio announcer in
Kansas City; and by 1937, he
landed a job with the United Press
wire service.
During World War II, he reported
Nazi air raids over London, Allied
invasions, and the progress of
troops on the ground. After the
war, he covered the Nuremberg
war crimes trials. In 1950,
famed journalist Edward R.
Murrow convinced him to work
for CBS News.
On April 9, 1962, Cronkite
became the anchor for the 15minute nightly news report by
CBS, called simply Walter
Cronkite with the News. In
September 1963, the newscast
was expanded to 30 minutes, the
first to do so, and was
rechristened the CBS Evening
News. Cronkite marked the
occasion with an interview with
President John F. Kennedy on
the broadcast. The nation grew
to enjoy Cronkite’s distinctive
voice and broadcast style as he
signed off each night’s broadcast
by declaring, “And that’s the
way it is.”
He covered many tragedies. He
later recalled how difficult it was
to maintain his composure when
reporting the death of President
Kennedy in 1963. However, he
was criticized for a 1968 report
in which he stated that the U. S.
should end the war in Vietnam.
Many advances in technology
came during Cronkite’s tenure.
In 1965, the CBS Evening News
first broadcast in color, a move
that became permanent in 1966.
By the late 1960s, live interviews
and reports from across the globe
were broadcast by satellite. He
was known for his attention to
detail and his intense curiosity.
He was widely respected by his
colleagues and became a mentor
of sorts for two other rising
journalists and fellow Texans at
CBS News, Dan Rather and Bob
Schieffer.
He was overwhelmed by the
developments in the American
space program and excitedly
reported the achievements of the
space program and the Apollo
moon landings. In appreciation
for his support, NASA gave
Cronkite a moon rock sample,
which he in turn donated to the
University of Texas.
In 1980, he announced he was
stepping down as anchor of the
CBS Evening News as CBS had
a mandatory retirement age of 65
at that time. His final broadcast
was in March 1981. Though 65,
Cronkite was far from ready to
retire. Over the next two decades,
he continued to host documentaries
and programs for CBS and other
networks. He wrote voraciously on
current events with a nationallysyndicated column. He was an
outspoken supporter of civil
liberties issues as well as press
freedom issues. In 1997, he
published his autobiography, A
Reporter’s Life.
Cronkite died in 2009 at age 92,
celebrated across the nation for his
achievements in journalism as a
respected voice for unfolding world
events.
