Continued verbal sparring
between an elected official and the
school superintendent marked the
regular meeting of the Hedley ISD
Board of Trustees last Thursday evening, April 25.
Although the board itself was
united on every vote it took Thursday, school trustee Karen Watt
and Superintendent Bill Sanders
remained at loggerheads on several
issues.
Watt questioned Sanders on his
mileage charges during consideration of the school district’s financial
report, and later drilled the administrator over the school’s failure to
ratify a Concussion Oversight Team,
an item that had been on the board’s
agenda several times for “discussion” but not for “approval.”
Watt quoted passages of the
state education code and quizzed
Sanders, who also coaches tennis,
as to whether he had the required
two-hour concussion training and
required CPR training.
Sanders said he was capable of
performing CPR if needed, and said
he still had 22 months to get the concussion training, but Watt disagreed
and said the concussion training had
to be completed by September 2012.
She then said Sanders’ failure to
complete the training could jeopar-
dize a Hedley student’s appearance
at the state tennis meet.
“It’s on you,” Watt told Sanders, “if she goes to state and gets
kicked out because I’m telling you
it’s required.”
The board later scheduled a 6
a.m. meeting Monday, April 29, for
the purpose of affirming the Concussion Oversight Team.
The board also discussed its
“FDA local” policy related to the
authorization of accepting transfer
students when said student might
require increased staff. The school
had previously placed that authority
with the superintendent, but some
months ago the board voted unani-
mously to return that authority to the
board.
Sanders said an advisor with the
Texas Association of School Boards
(TASB) had recommended the board
rescind that change and leave the
authority with the superintendent.
Watt read a lengthy prepared
statement on the topic, defending
the change as a legal local policy
decision and calling the fact that the
policy change had not been made
“unacceptable.” She also said she
was “insulted” that TASB would try
to interfere with the board’s action.
Sanders read a letter from the
TASB representative and said the
school should listen to its policy

consultant.
“We have to trust somebody,”
Sanders said, “and I trust TASB.”
Trustee Ted Wright said the
TASB representative was supposed
to have attended the April 25 meeting, but then the matter was “turned
over to Bonnie Brown.” Wright, the
former board president, was referring to his being ousted from the
board leadership and being replaced
by Brown at an April 16 meeting.
Brown did not attend last
week’s meeting, and Sanders said
Brown told him the board could
handle the matter without TASB.

LaVelle’s receives CEDC storefront grant
By Roger Estlack, Clarendon Enterprise
LaVelle’s Coffee house is
the newest business on Kearney
Street and the recipient of the
Clarendon Economic Development
Corporation’s 15th cash award under
its popular Façade Grant Program.
Owned and operated by
Michelle Hall, LaVelle’s opened
Tuesday at 214 S. Kearney in the
building formerly occupied by
Eads’ Furniture & Appliance. Hall
received $706.33 from the CEDC for
fifty percent of the cost of signage
improvements to the front of the
building, which repurposed an old
lighted RCA sign for the coffee
house.
“The façade grant was very
important to us,” Hall said last
Friday before the business opened.
“We already had six tourists come in
from as far away as Arizona.”
Hall also completed a
substantial remodeling of the
old furniture store with new wall
treatments, new bathrooms, and a
new kitchen.
LaVelle’s features flavored
coffees, lattes, and cappuccinos as
well as soups, salads, sandwiches
and will also offer a healthy breakfast
menu.
Hall said she wants the coffee
shop to be a place where people
come to relax. Free wireless Internet
is available, and other amenities
include a pool table, a kids’ corner,
and seating areas for small groups.
Since the Façade Grant
Program began in 2008, the CEDC
has awarded $ 17,636.93 to property
owners on a three-block stretch of
Kearney Street.
LaVelle’s is the first grant the
CEDC has awarded since it renewed

Early balloting continues through next Tuesday
Early voting by personal
appearance began Monday for four
local governments holding elections
this spring.
Balloting for the City of
Clarendon and Clarendon ISD is
being held at the Donley County
Courthouse Annex. Howardwick
residents vote for their city officials
at the City Hall there, and early
voting for the Hedley ISD Board of
Trustees is at the school office.
In all 24 candidates are seeking
offices this spring.
Clarendon Mayor Larry Hicks
is being challenged for his job by
Alderman Tommy Hill, and four
people are running for two positions
available on the Board of Aldermen.
Alderman Debbie Roberts, who was
appointed in December, is seeking a
full term in office, and she is joined
on the ballot by former alderman
Janice Knorpp, Sandy Skelton, and
Trevor Leeper.
Clarendon ISD has four candidates running for three positions
on the Board of Trustees. Current
school board members Robin Ellis
and Jim Shelton are seeking re-election and challengers Linda Rowland
and Chuck Robertson are also running.
Six candidates are running for
two positions on the Hedley School
Board. Incumbents Bonnie Walsh
Brown and James E. Potts are being
challenged by Michele McCann,
Kevin Smith, Aaron Harper, and
Lana Ritchie.
The City of Howardwick
leads the candidate count at eight
with David P. Cafferata and former
alderman Mike Rowland running
for mayor; William R. Jordan, Gail
Leathers, and Jim Cockerham running for two vacant full terms on the
Board of Aldermen; and Alderman
Gene Rogers, Cory Longan, former
mayor H.L. “Buster” Baird, and
Sandy Sanders vying for two unexpired terms.
Early voting by personal
appearance runs through May 7.
Election Day will be Saturday, May
11.
The City of Clarendon will
begin the process of changing zoning
requirements in residential areas
after a local businessman addressed
the Board of Aldermen last Tuesday,
April 23.
Gary Hunt asked the board
for permission to build and operate
storage units on land he owns along
Seventh Street between Leroy and
Cottage streets. He said Code Compliance Officer Jason Conatser told
him the structures he wants to build
in that location are allowable under
city rules but that operating a business is not.
Hunt owns other storage units
on the north side of US 287 and on
SH 70 north of the city, but he said
he has several elderly clients who
don’t want to cross the highway.
Alderman Abby Patten asked
if Hunt had contacted the neighbors
for their opinion. He said that he had
not but he was sure there would be
objections, noting that he had asked
for permission before and been
denied.
Hunt said finding suitable commercial property is difficult and said
his planned construction would generate economic activity on land that
is unsuitable for residential construction due to a lack of sewer service.
Alderman Will Thompson
urged the board to contact the city
attorney to be sure proper procedure
is being followed. The board unanimously voted to begin the process
of making the change, which will
require a public hearing.
In other board business, Engineer Clayton Scales presented findings of a study his firm conducted on
the city’s water system. He said the
city needs more elevated storage and
that the new west side standpipe built
in 2010 is inadequate for the city’s
requirements and doesn’t provide
for growth. He recommended adding
a new standpipe on the east side of
town and increasing the capacity of
distribution lines.
Scales also said the city needs
to work to replace old cast iron lines
and to find a way to boost pump
capacity at Greenbelt’s filter plant.
Phase One of the improvements
– the new standpipe and enhanced
distribution lines – would cost an
estimated $1.75 million, and the
engineering firm has submitted an
application to the state water development board on behalf of the city.
Alderman Debbie Roberts
raised concerns about workers not
getting paid overtime for emergency
calls at nights and on weekends if
they haven’t put in 40 hours during
the week. She said under city rules, if
an employee is off for a doctor’s visit
or vacation day and then gets called
in at 9 p.m. on Friday, that employee
does not get overtime, which she said
was not fair. The board approved a
motion to research how other cities
handle this situation.

OPINION

Privatize
almost
everything
By Richard W. Rahn
As a mental challenge, try to think of all of the
governmental activities – federal, state and local – that
could be privatized. Now, go a step further. Suppose
you were required to develop a plan to privatize, or
make self-supporting through user fees, nearly every
activity of government. Could you or a group of your
friends do it? Try it. I expect your success will surprise
you.
The reason this is relevant is because most
governments will reach their borrowing limits in the
not-too-distant future, which means they will have to
operate on current revenue from taxes and fees. Many
governments have reached or are reaching their ability
to increase taxes, and income-tax systems will begin
to fall under their own weight. Governments will be
forced to downsize and privatize – or private citizens
and groups will just take over as they are increasingly
doing because of failing government schools, for
example.
The U.S. government was created to protect
people and property and to ensure liberty; but more
and more often, it does just the opposite. The air-traffic
controller fiasco last week was a perfect illustration
of how almost all governments eventually turn against
the citizens they are supposed to protect and serve. As
The Wall Street Journal noted April 26, the Federal
Aviation Administration “managed to convert a less
than 4 percent budget cut into a 10 percent air traffic
control cut that would delay 40 percent of flights.”
This occurred despite several years of substantial
budget increases for the agency, coupled with a
decreasing number of flights and workload for the
controllers.
The episode demonstrates not only gross
managerial incompetence but an incredible degree of
mean-spiritedness by the folks at the FAA and in the
administration, right up to President Obama himself.
Furthermore, the president had the unmitigated gall
to attack Congress (as well as a large majority of the
members of his own party in both houses of Congress)
in his weekly radio address for coming up with a fix
for a problem he had created.
The Founding Fathers understood that it was
not uncommon for political leaders to turn on their
own people. Hitler, Stalin and Mao showed there is
no limit as to how far some leaders will go. Even in
rather civil, democratic regimes, it is common to see
leaders far more concerned with their own power than
the common good. This is why the Founders tried
to design a system that would limit government –
particularly the federal government, which was given
very few tasks and powers. As is widely and correctly
understood, when government directly manages an
activity, it often does it poorly because of the lack
of competition and accountability, and because
governmental activities often become politicized –
delivering inferior service at high cost.
The solution to this problem is to keep as
many activities in the private sector as possible.
Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher began a massive
privatization of the British economy more than three
decades ago, which enabled economic renewal.
Many other countries followed suit; however, the
global effort has waned in recent years. Now, when
stagnation has re-emerged, part of the solution is again
privatization.
My Cato Institute colleague Chris Edwards, in
an article published in the Daily Caller last week,
noted: “Canada provides an excellent model for U.S.
reforms. Canada’s Air Traffic Control system is run
by the nonprofit corporation Nav Canada, which is
separate from the government. It raises money from
its customers to cover operational costs and capital
investments. Unlike the U.S. system, Nav Canada
is self-supporting and not subsidized.” It also has a
reputation for being very well run, with state-of-the-art
systems (unlike the FAA). Approximately 50 countries
have now, in part or fully, privatized their air-traffic
control systems – with excellent results.
The debate over sequestration has caused a
renewed focus on all of the waste, duplication and
inappropriate or nonessential things the federal
government does. As noted above, at some point, the
ability of the government to borrow at low cost will
run out. At that time, the government will have no
choice but to make many activities self-supporting and
privatize them. Smart politicians will begin proposing
such solutions now – rather than pushing for more
destructive tax increases.
Finally, if you are having trouble with the quiz
at the beginning, you might wish to go the websites
of major free-market think tanks, such as the Reason
Foundation, Heritage Foundation, Competitive
Enterprise Institute, American Enterprise Institute,
and, of course, the Cato Institute, as well as the many
excellent international, state and local think tanks.
(The Atlas Economic Research Foundation has a
comprehensive listing of most of the world’s freemarket think tanks.) You will be amazed at how many
examples you will find of successful privatization
programs – of almost any traditional federal, state or
local governmental activity – somewhere in the world.

and chairman of the Institute for Global Economic Growth.
LaVelle’s brings something new to town
Last Friday night, Lavelle’s Coffee
Shop, located on Kearney Street, just
across from the library, held an open
house to introduce a new gathering
place - a quaint coffee shop and bistro
style eating establishment - where folks
can come together for a great meal and
a wonderful cup of coffee (with tea and
other drinks for the non-coffee drinkers),
in a warm, comfortable environment.
Michelle Hall, the proprietor, has
always wanted to be of service to others.
She came by this virtue mainly by helping her mother, Rose Smith, a natural
entrepreneur of many successful businesses. As a young girl Michelle spent
hours working for her mother, polishing
her entrepreneur skills, and developing
the burning desire to be of service to
others. Michelle is continuing a long
held family tradition of serving others.
One of her primary reasons for
opening LaVelle’s Coffee Shop was to
provide a pleasant meeting place for
the folks of Clarendon, offering a great
atmosphere, excellent food, superior
coffee, and exemplary service. She envisioned a warm place for people to meet
over good coffee, good food, and good
conversation. She has done that. She
has created a unique dining experience
for folks in Clarendon.
The name “LaVelle’s” comes from
a long-established family tradition,
dating back to her family’s origins in
the old country of Germany. According
to Michelle, the name “LaVelle” was
taken as part
of the name of
the first-born
in each new
generation of
the family.
Michelle
wanted to
honor her
family and
pay homage to
by fred gray
those who have
gone before.
Michelle’s vision for LaVelle’s is to
provide a place where folks of all ages
can get together for good wholesome,
family style fun and food. She wants
to do something special for the people
of Clarendon, and designed the concept
of LaVelle’s to meet a community need
that does not exist, a place where we can
come together to socialize, enjoy good
food and beverages, while enjoying various activities.
LaVelle’s has a pool table that can
be rented for $5 an hour. Additionally,
she has many books available for reading
while enjoying your coffee, along with
a wide-ranging menu of breakfast and
lunch dishes, including creative sandwiches, soups, and kids’ meals. There is
also space available for playing games
like chess, pente, and whatever board
games we choose to bring along with us.
LaVelle’s Coffee Shop, a little hole
in the wall place, is managed by Becky
Rattan, and staffed by an energetic, well-
the quick,
the dead,
& fred
trained group of mostly young people,
each sporting bright smiles and warm
dispositions.
At Friday’s sneak peak, a surprisingly large number of people (well over
a hundred) gathered for a sampling
of the fare offered. Alyss Simpson’s
favorite menu items were the turkey
and bacon sandwich and the great cup
of soup. Her 10 year old sister, Malerie
Simpson, preferred the soup and chips.
Actually, the entire Simpson family,
including my new neighbor and longtime friend Helen, seemed to enjoy the
food in a warm and relaxed environment.
Samantha Wright, a precocious 8 year
old, and horse lover (she has 3 – Cabbage, Cisco, and Boo) waxed poetic
while outfitted in her CLARENDON ENTERPRISE tee-ball tee shirt, saying that she
thinks that LaVelle’s is very pretty and
looks like a good place to eat.
The home-made bread pudding was
a huge favorite with everyone who tried
it. Other tasty pastries are available for
those with a sweet tooth. All items are
priced very reasonably.
Seriously, LaVelle’s Coffee Shop
has a delicious menu. Michelle and her
staff have done a wonderful job of creating a place where we can gather to enjoy
each other’s company, good food, and
good beverages.
Give LaVelle’s Coffee Shop a visit.
Who knows, we may end up in a chess
match or pente match while enjoying
excellent fare.

Perry: Water plan can’t be delayed
By Texas Governor Rick Perry
It’s difficult to believe there’s
anyone in Texas who doesn’t understand
the immediate need to address water
infrastructure. With a state as vast and
geographically diverse as Texas, we
don’t always have water in the right
places. That’s why we must invest in
infrastructure to develop the water-supplies for the areas that need it.
The fundamental truth is this: If
we don’t deal with this problem now,
it holds the potential of inflicting catastrophic damage upon our economy and
our very way of life.
And every session we kick this can
down the road, the danger becomes more
pronounced and the price tag for dealing
with it grows larger.
We can take a historic step toward
resolving our water deficit with House
Bill 11 by Rep. Allan Ritter, which provides a meaningful, one-time investment
in water infrastructure to keep our state
viable for future economic growth.
Our population is now over 26 million and increasing by more than 1,000 a
day. We continue to attract key employers from around the world seeking to
expand or relocate. And our agriculture
sector continues to help feed the world.
These are three thirsty variables in a
troubling equation that adds up to severe
water deficits in portions of our state in
the decades to come, and even sooner if
we suffer through a serious drought like
the one we experienced in the 1950s.
Economic models indicate that a drought
of that magnitude could cost Texans
$116 billion in lost income.
If we have such a drought, by
2060 – with the population at that time
expected to be over 46 million – we’ll
likely be facing a deficit of 8.3 million
acre-feet. (An acre-foot is roughly equivalent to the average annual water usage
of three to four households.)
In addition to basic quality-of-life
issues, this need cuts us across all areas,
including economic development. While
we enjoy our status as a prime relocation
site, companies keep a close eye on the
quality of a location’s water and transportation infrastructure when making
the final decision on where to go. If we
want to retain our status as the nation’s
epicenter for job creation, we need to
address this issue now, and address it
aggressively.
The good news is that current economic conditions and available balances
in the Rainy Day Fund provide a unique
opportunity for the state to partner with
communities by offering financing to
develop and implement new water supplies. HB 11’s one-time transfer of $2
billion from the Rainy Day Fund would
capitalize a newly-created perpetual
fund that, over time, has the capacity to
finance $27 billion of identified assistance needed in the 2012 State Water
Plan, which outlines the water needs of
our state for the next 50 years.
Historically, water funding has
been dependent on the Legislature to
appropriate general revenue to pay debt
service on bonds issued for specific projects. Relying on this piecemeal method
of funding is more expensive and less
effective than this idea. For example, if
we funded the Water Plan strictly by tapping general revenue, by 2060 we’d have
spent somewhere between $8 billion and
$12 billion.
Combined with financing from the
private sector, this one-time dispersal
from the Rainy Day Fund should fully
implement the plan without requiring
ongoing contributions from general
revenue.
Since 1997, Texas has been a recognized leader in developing and implementing strategies to ensure Texans have
access to clean, reliable water supplies.
As the Texas economy and population
boom, it is imperative that our policies
encourage water suppliers to find new
ways to clean, convey, and conserve
water. Upon the passage of HB 11, the
state will stand ready to partner with
local and regional entities to assist in
the development of water infrastructure
and capacity projects that will meet the
water demands for the next 50 years and
beyond.
This is simply not an issue we can
ignore anymore.

Monday at noon. Advertising and Classifieds are due by five o’clock Monday afternoon. Deadlines may be altered for holidays

Former alderman endorses candidates
As a former city alderman, I feel
it is important to let the citizens of
Clarendon know just how important the
upcoming city election is. The current
Board of Aldermen vote as a unit no
matter what the issue is and refuse to
listen to the remaining member who
attempts to put some logical thinking
into discussions. Three of these
aldermen are on the ballot. Two of the
three are running for aldermen, and
the third is running for mayor. (If you
remember, he lost the last time he ran for
that office.)
Consider that this group, without
checking with the city attorney, fired
the last professional city manager
without cause, which cost the city more
than $30,000. Prior to my retirement,
I was a professional administrator, and
I know I would find it very difficult to
accept a position where the last two
administrators had been terminated
without cause.
Two weeks ago, one of the
aldermen insisted the board go into
executive session even when the
employee involved requested that the
issue be discussed during the open
meeting. This in and of itself was
not legal as the city’s agenda didn’t
specify it was going to discuss the city
secretary’s position or duties.
How long can the City of Clarendon
continue to be led by people who have
personal agendas, lack common sense,
and lack the business and managerial
skills needed to lead our community?
The only way Clarendon will progress
is to change the elected representatives
who make decisions for this great city.
Vote for Larry Hicks, mayor; Sandy
Skelton, alderman; and Janice Knorpp,
alderman.

at a May 6 meeting.
Watt then took issue with
Sanders’ handling of the District
Improvement Plan and presented
Groom ISD’s plan as an example of
what a school with a small staff can
do. She specifically wanted to see
changes to Hedley’s documentation
of higher education opportunities
at the school. Board Vice President
Dana Bell directed Sanders to make
the changes and e-mail the revised
plan to Watt so she could review it
prior to the board’s May 6 meeting.
Under personnel issues, Sanders announced the resignation of
Linda Naylor, who will retire after
30 years of teaching.
The board then came to consideration of salaries for not-contract
labor staff, and a short debate centered on the closed session called
for on the agenda with some trustees feeling the matter needed to be
discussed in closed session “for one
of them.” Watt asked for representa-
tives of THE CLARENDON ENTERPRISE
to look at the agenda for an opinion
as to whether a closed session was
legitimate, but Potts objected.
“We’re not asking the ENTERPRISE for advice,” he said.
The board then met behind
closed doors for six minutes, but
Watt excluded herself from the session, saying she thought the wording
on the agenda was too general.
When the board reconvened in
open session, trustees voted unanimously to increase the salaries of
the non-contract labor staff by five
percent effective September 1, 2013.

Hang up before you get scammed on the phone
Hi, gang! Don’t be scammed in
the elections. Early voting is going
on. If you haven’t voted, do it now.
Please check out the candidates for
each election. The Clarendon Aldermen’s race has created a lot of interest this time. You should check the
qualifications of each candidate.
We need to make some changes.
During the six months I was City
Judge (before I resigned for medical reasons), I had an opportunity to
observe the city’s daily operations.
The City Judge’s office is located in
City Hall. This is not the place for
this office, however that is another
story. I observed Mayor Hicks’ hard
work and dedication in his service
to the city. Did he make some mistakes? Yes, but don’t we all? Overall
he has been a very good Mayor and
should be reelected. Check out each
candidate.
Hang Up on New Utility Bill
Phone Scam
Utility companies throughout
the US and Canada are warning
their customers about a new con.
Scammers are calling residents and
impersonating utility staff, claiming
to be collecting on late bills. How the
Scam Works: The phone rings, and
the person on the other line identifies her/himself as a representative
from your local electric, water, or
gas company. He or she tells you that
you are late on your bill. You need
to pay immediately or your utilities
will terminated.
However, instead of accepting
payment by credit card or check, the
caller wants you to pay by prepaid
debit card. The scammer instructs
you to obtain a prepaid debit card
and call him/her back.
Prepaid Debit Cards and
Scams: Prepaid debit cards are
becoming an increasingly popular
method of payment for scammers.
Wire transfer services have tightened
their security, so crooks have turned
to these prepaid cards instead. The
cards are difficult to trace, and you
do not need photo identification to
collect or spend the money. Be sure
you treat a prepaid debit card like
cash and remember that transactions
cannot be reversed.
Tips for Spotting a Utility
Scam: Because local gas, water and
electric companies do sometimes
contact their customers by phone,
it can be difficult to tell a scammer
from a real agent. Here are some
tips: If a caller specifically asks you
to pay by prepaid debit card, this is
a red flag. Your utility company will
accept a check or credit card. If you
feel pressured for immediate payment or personal information, hang
up the phone
and call the
customer service number
on your utility
bill. This will
ensure you
are speaking
to a real rep- by bob watson
resentative.
Never allow anyone into your home
to check electrical wiring, natural
gas pipes or appliances unless you
have scheduled an appointment or
reported a problem. Also, ask utility
employees for proper identification.
Scams to Watch for in Wake
of Boston Bombing
Scams crop up after every large
scale tragedy, and, unfortunately,
the Boston Marathon bombing and
Texas explosion are no exception.
Watch out for the following cons:
Charity Cons: The most
common scams after a tragedy prey
on public goodwill. Scammers set
up fake charities and/or social media
accounts to take advantage of the
outpouring of generosity. Already
dozens of URLs related to the Boston
bombing relief have been registered,
and at least one fake Twitter account
was shut down. Scammers will likely
try the same tricks in response to
Texas tragedy.

Buffy the Wonder Dog has been

has to say is “Go in the truck” and
she is waiting at the gate sitting quietly until he calls. She has developed
much better manners and comes
back into the yard on command. Her
cousin Yorkie, Bilbo, shows off with
tricks, and she just looks at him. She
is much faster, stops and waits for
him like a friend should do. After a
hard day of play she spends the next
day sleeping.

Follow us... Senior Citizens Center plays several May activities

are welcomed with proceeds going
to the Senior Center. Serving will
start at 10:00 a.m. and last thru 11:30
a.m., with games and prizes thru-out
Effort: Make sure your donations
are being used wisely. Follow these
tips from BBB Wise Giving Alliance
and be sure to check out the full list:
Give thoughtfully. Take the time to
check out the charity to avoid wasting your generosity to a questionable or poorly managed effort. Find
evaluations of national charities in
Wise Giving’s directory. Check with
your state government. About 40 of
the 50 states require charities to register with a state government agency
(usually a division of the State Attorney General’s office) before they
solicit for charitable gifts. Ensure
your charity respects victims and
their families. Organizations raising
funds should get permission from
the families to use names and photographs of the victims.
Learn how your money will be
used. Watch out for vague appeals
that don’t identify the intended use
of funds. Exercise caution with
online/email appeals. Never click
on links to charities on unfamiliar
websites, texts or emails. Use social
media recommendations as a starting point, but don’t assume that your
Facebook friend vetted the charity
she/he posted.
Be careful out there. There are
so many scams going around it is
hard to pick the ones to write about.

April brings record freezes to H’wick
“April showers bring May flowers” as the old song goes. Again this
year the showers have passed us by in
April, but we have broken the record
for most freezing days in April. Not
a record to be proud of, and the
forecast is for close to freezing on
May 1. I am afraid we have lost one
and possibly two rose bushes to the
freezing weather. It will be a week or
so before we know about the larger
trees and bushes. I saw Cornell’s
greenhouse is well stocked, and I am
making a trip over there this week
and hope I find some geraniums in
stock. They are one flower that does
well at my house.
These charity scams take different forms. Some are outright
fronts - scammers raise money in
the name of doing good and pocket
their collection. Others are phishing
scams. Donors are drawn in by fake
websites and/or social media. When
they click on the link, they find
themselves either at a fake “donation form” asking for personal information or a website that downloads
malware to their computer. Finally,
some owners of fake social media
accounts are actually building up followers and “likes” in hopes of selling
the account later.
Sensational
Video/Photo
Cons: This trick has followed every
major news event for the last five
years. As soon as the media breaks
a big story (large scale tragedies and
celebrity deaths are the most popular), scam emails and social media
posts appear promoting sensational
photos and videos. Fall for the teasers, and you will find yourself at a
phishing website or downloading
malware to your computer. So far,
e-mails appearing to contain a link to
footage of the bombings are making
the rounds. But watch out for similar
teasers on Facebook and Twitter too.

Locals win at
Panhandle 4-H
Fashion Show
AMARILLO - Panhandle 4-H
members from 17 counties competed
in the District 1 4-H Fashion Show
on April 20 at Texas A&M AgriLife
Research and Extension Center in
Amarillo.
Youth advanced to this competition after placing first in their
individual county competitions and
the first place winners of the senior
division will advance to Texas 4-H
Roundup, which will be held June
10-14 at Texas A&M University in
College Station, according to Brandon Dukes, AgriLife Extension district administrator.
The clothing and textiles project consists of three divisions: constructing an outfit, buying an outfit,
or designing, planning and illustrating an outfit.
Public speaking is reinforced
through individual contestant interviews, records are kept and judged
and then the youth are able to participate in the public display, or style
show, of their outfit, Dukes said.
Youth also participated in Fashion Storyboard competition. This
contest provides an opportunity for
participants to gain knowledge of
career responsibilities of a fashion
designer and illustrator, enhance creativity and originality, and develop
visual communications skills.
More than 100 boys and girls
competed in these activities. Donley
County winners are as follow:
Construction Dressy – Intermediates: 2. Hannah Hommel; Seniors
3. Shelby O’Keefe, Donley. Buying
Casual – Juniors: 1. Elizabeth Craft,
Donley.

The Clarendon College volleyball women volunteered their time
this past Saturday in Amarillo for Habitat for Humanity. The team
helped work on a house that was being built for a refugee family
from Africa who are working hard to start a life here in America.
It is a great cause and was a very humbling experience for all the
Lady Bulldogs. If you want to know how you can help out, visit

Clarendon Church of Christ
GENEROSITY OF GOD
Living in the panhandle of Texas is very different from the rest of
the country. Farming and ranching without large amounts of rain can
be challenging to say the least. Folks around here understand that
without the generosity of God, it would be impossible to live or make
a living.
God is generous with material things we need. Everything we have
is from Him. We may till the soil or go punch a clock somewhere and
go to work, but God gives us our health to do so.
In Genesis 2 we see that God was generous to us and gave us the
right to have a spouse. In verse 18, God said, “It’s not good for man to
be alone.” Many think of government giving us a right to marry, but it
was God in the beginning.
He was generous with His Son. He sent Christ to die for our sins,
even when we didn’t deserve it. Romans 5:8 tells us that God sent His
Son while we were still in our sins. As humans it is hard to sometimes
share under the best of circumstances, much less with people who
have wronged us. That is exactly what God did.
God’s generosity is beyond our comprehension. Yet, we try to be
more generous than God. How?
1. With His Word. The Bible gives God’s doctrine or commands and
many people don’t like them. So, many make it say what they want.
They try to stretch God’s word to include things that it doesn’t. They
believe they are being generous or tolerant, but you can’t be generous
and go beyond what God has said!
2.
With His Conditions of Salvation. If God has requirements to
attain His grace, and He does, who are we to change those? If the
only cure for a disease is say, penicillin, you couldn’t just arbitrarily
take something else and expect to be well. That is logic, but for some
reason folks don’t apply it to religion even though God is a logical being.
God’s generosity is beyond our means and understanding. We
should appreciate it and understand that we can’t “out give” God. We
can’t change God’s word or we negate its effect. Let us all be satisfied
with what He has said and just follow the program He’s given.

advance to state
ACE
PEST CONTROL
By Sandy Anderberg
Senior runner Audrey Shelton doubled
up at the Regional Track Meet in Levelland
last weekend winning the 3200-meter run
and finishing second in the 1600-meter to
run in two events in the State Meet in Austin
May 10-11.
Shelton ran hard in the 3200 and bested
the field and finished with a time of 12:6.07.
In the 1600-meter run, Shelton was right on
the heels of the Quanah runner and finished
with a time of 5:28.07.
Fellow senior Jentry Shadle also
qualified for state in the 100-meter hurdles
with a great second place finish with a time
of 16.80.
Hurdler Amanda Powell failed to
advance but turned in an outstanding time
of 49.08 in the 300-meter hurdles for third
place. There is still a slight chance that she
could advance as a wildcard.
Junior Sarah Luttrell competed in the
100-meter dash and finished 6th at 13.41.
She also jumped to a fourth place finish in
the long jump at a distance of 16’7”, but she
did not advance in either event. McKayla
Cartwright went 35’8 ½” in the shot put for
fourth place.
Several Broncos competed but did not
advance. Corey Barker finished fifth for
the Broncos in the 100-meter dash, Trajen
Johnson competed in the high jump, Rowdy
Speed threw in the discus, Diego Santos pole
vaulted, and Charles Mason long jumped.

Vaccination Recommendations for
Whooping Cough
A recent rise in whooping cough outbreaks has led the US
Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to release new vaccination
recommendations. Currently, a tetanus combination vaccine
named “Tdap” provides protection against pertussis, the bacteria
that causes whooping cough. The CDC now recommends that
all adults over the age of 19 receive one additional “Tdap”
vaccination. In addition, pregnant women should receive a
“Tdap” vaccination in the third trimester of each pregnancy.
Previous vaccinations as an adult with the tetatnus vaccine called
“Td” does not count since it did not protect against pertussis.
Whooping cough is a respiratory tract infection characterized
by a strong cough followed by a high-pitched “whoop”. It is
highly contagious, and the best way to prevent its spread is
vaccination. Since whooping cough is potentially fatal in infants
less than 12 months, it is especially recommended that any
family members or caregivers who come into contact frequently
with an infant receive this adult “Tdap” vaccination.
