Work on FM 51
GAINESVILLE - Pavement improvements are ready to start on
FM 51 in Gainesville this week.
Contractor crews will repave
FM 51 from the I-35 frontage
road to FM 1306 just South of
the NCTC. The job will cost
$565,000 and the contractor is
Lane Construction.
Workers will start by fixing
failures in the road base before
overlaying the entire project
with a surface of new asphalt
hotmix. Various lane closures
will be needed along the route
as work is done. However, access
to the properties will be maintained.
Due to a high amount of
student traffic in the morning,
TxDOT has asked the contractor to start after 8am to avoid
school start times. Parents
should remind their students to
be cautious and allow more time
for their morning commute.
The work is expected to wrap
up in June.

Town
by Grice King
My goodness, where has this
year gone so far? Hard for me to
accept that its Easter time again!
A few years ago we started a new
Easter egg tradition around our
house. It’s fairly labor intensive,
but the kids really enjoy it. We
go out on Saturday evening
and “plant” jelly beans that the
Easter bunny then turns the
jelly bean “seeds” in to suckers, tootsie pops, and just any
kind of larger wrapped suckers
we can find. It sure seemed to
add some extra excitement to
the mad dash and competition
that siblings end up making
of the day. From our family to
yours, we hope you have an excellent Easter and that everyone
gets their fill of eggs and sugary
goodness! Happy Easter!
Here is some more of what’s
happening around town this
week:
++++++++
Whaley United Methodist
Church is having its BUNNYPALOOZA on Saturday, March
26 from 1:00 to 3:00 pm in
the church yard. Whaley is located at 701 Rosedale Drive in
Gainesville. This event is free to
all children of egg hunting ages!
++++++++
The Gainesville Car Club will
have their monthly meeting
Tuesday, March 29 at 6:30pm
at the Smokehouse in Lindsay.
The car club is open to anyone
that has an old or classic car, or
just loves old cars.
++++++++
Members of First Presbyterian Church invite everyone to
come celebrate Holy Week with
them! On Thursday there will
be a traditional Maundy Thursday service at 7:00 pm which
includes the celebration of the
Lord’s Supper and Tenebrae service. On Good Friday Jesus’ last
hours, crucifixion and burial
will be commemorated with a
series of self-guided “Pray Stations” which will be available at
the church from 10:00 am until
2:00 pm.
Easter Sunday begins with
sunrise worship at 7:00 am

Muenster Hospital Now
Offers MRI Services
MUENSTER - Muenster
Memorial Hospital now
provides
state-of-the-art
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to area residents
via a mobile unit available
weekly at the hospital.
In partnership with Advanced Imaging Management, LLC, of League
City, Texas, MMH is now
accepting outpatient appointments in addition to
providing diagnostic scanning for patients in the
hospital.
The MRI delivers both
remarkable image quality
and high productivity in
a patient-friendly setting.
With patient comfort in
mind, the large 60 cm bore
and 350 pound weight limit
provides a comfortable care
environment. The 1.5 Tesla
field strength and advanced
gradient system provide fast
exam times and excellent
high resolution images.
MRI diagnostic scanning
uses a magnetic field and
pulses of radio wave energy
to make digital images of
organs and structures inside
the body. In many cases,
MRI gives more detailed
information about structures in the body than can
be seen with an X-ray, ultrasound, or computed to-
mography (CT) scan. Doctors may order MRI scans
to help diagnose multiple
sclerosis, brain tumors,
torn ligaments, tendonitis,
cancer and strokes, for example.
Brian Roland, Chief Executive Officer for Muenster Memorial said, “The
addition of MRI services is
part of the commitment we
continue to make in serving our residents. If we can
provide a quality product
and keep people close to
home or work, we feel good
about that.”
MRI services are provided
in a uniquely-built mobile
unit. This allows multiple
hospitals to share MRI services without creating the
large capital expenditure of
purchasing an onsite unit.
The 400 square foot unit
contains the MRI system,
a control room, a computer
room, and a dressing area.
The MRI does not use any
radiation and is completely
safe for patients that do
not have metal or electrical devices in their bodies.
Patients may listen to music
while in the MRI, which
keeps the environment relaxed.
MRI exams must be ordered by a physician. Patients can ask their physicians to schedule their
procedure by calling 940759-6121 or faxing 940759-5080.

Patrick J. Buchanan
Suicide of the GOP -- or Rebirth?
By Patrick J. Buchanan
“If his poll numbers hold,
Trump will be there six
months from now when the
Sweet 16 is cut to the Final
Four, and he will likely be in
the finals.”
My prediction, in July of
2015, looks pretty good right
now.
Herewith, a second prediction. Republican wailing
over his prospective nomination aside, Donald Trump
could beat Hillary Clinton
like a drum in November.
Indeed, only the fear that
Trump can win explains the
hysteria in this city. Here
is The Washington Post of
March 18: “As a moral question it is straightforward. The
mission of any responsible
Republican should be to
block a Trump nomination
and election.”
The Orwellian headline
over that editorial: “To defend our democracy, the
GOP must aim for a brokered convention.”
Beautiful. Defending democracy requires Republicans to cancel the democratic
decision of the largest voter
turnout of any primaries in
American history. And this
is now a moral imperative for
Republicans.
Like the Third World leaders it lectures, the Post celebrates democracy -- so long
as the voters get it right.
Whatever one may think
of the Donald, he has exposed not only how far out
of touch our political elites
are, but how insular is the
audience that listens to our
media elite.
Understandably, Trump’s
rivals were hesitant to take
him on, seeing the number
he did on “little Marco,”
“low energy” Jeb and “Lyin’
Ted.”
But the Big Media -- the
Post, Wall Street Journal,
New York Times -- have been
relentless and ruthless.
Yet Trump’s strength with
voters seemed to grow, pari
passu, with the savagery of
their attacks. As for National
Review, The Weekly Standard and the accredited conservative columnists of the
big op-ed pages, their hostility to Trump seems to rise,
commensurate with Trump’s
rising polls.
As the Wizard of Oz was
exposed as a little man behind a curtain with a big
megaphone, our media establishment is unlikely ever
again to be seen as formidable as it once was.
And the GOP?
Those Republicans who
assert that a Trump nomination would be a moral stain,
a scarlet letter, the death of
the party, they are most likely
describing what a Trump
nomination would mean to
their own ideologies and interests.
Barry Goldwater lost 44
states in 1964, and the GOP
fell to less than a third of
Congress. “The Republican
Party is dead,” wailed the
Rockefeller wing. Actually, it
wasn’t. Only the Rockefeller
wing was dead.
After the great Yellowstone
fire in the summer of ‘88,
the spring of ‘89 produced
astonishing green growth
everywhere. 1964 was the
Yellowstone fire of the GOP,
burning up a million acres
of dead wood, preparing the
path for party renewal. Renewal often follows rebellion.
Republican strength today,
on Capitol Hill and in state
offices, is at levels unseen
since Calvin Coolidge. Turnout in the GOP primaries
has been running at levels
unseen in American history,
while turnout in the Democratic primaries is below
what it was in the ObamaClinton race of 2008.
This opportunity for Republicans should be a cause
for rejoicing, not all this
weeping and gnashing of
teeth. If the party in Cleveland can bring together the
Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco
Rubio and John Kasich
forces, the White House, Supreme Court and Congress
are all within reach.
Consider. Clinton was
beaten by Bernie Sanders
in Michigan, and pressed
in Ohio and Illinois, on her
support for NAFTA and the
trade deals of the ClintonBush-Obama era that eviscerated American manufacturing and led to the loss of
millions of factory jobs and
the stagnation of wages.
Sanders’ issues are Trump’s
issues.
A Trump campaign across
the industrial Midwest,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey
featuring attacks on Hillary
Clinton’s support for NAF-
TA, the WTO, MFN for
China -- and her backing of
amnesty and citizenship for
illegal immigrants, and for
the Iraq and Libyan debacles
-- is a winning hand.
Lately, 116 architects and
subcontractors of the Bush
I and II foreign policy took
their own version of the Oxford Oath. They will not vote
for, nor serve in a Trump administration.
Talking heads are bobbing
up on cable TV to declare
that if Trump is nominee,
they will not vote for him
and may vote for Clinton.
This is not unwelcome
news. Let them go.
Their departure testifies
that Trump is offering something new and different from
the foreign policy failures
this crowd did so much to
produce.
The worst mistake Trump
could make would be to tailor his winning positions on
trade, immigration and intervention -- to court such
losers.
While Trump should reach
out to the defeated establishment of the party, he cannot
compromise the issues that
brought him where he is, or
embrace the failed policies
that establishment produced.
This would be throwing away
his aces.
The Trump campaign is
not a hostile takeover of the
Republican Party. It is a rebellion of shareholders who
are voting to throw out the
corporate officers and board
of directors that ran the company into the ground.
Only the company here is
our country.

Missing: Any Challenge for the Common Good
By Mark Shields
For the presidential campaign of 2016, the best estimate is that the candidates,
their political action committees, the political parties
and so-called “independent”
committees will raise and
spend $5 billion -- which
would be twice as much as
was spent in the 2012 presidential campaign. With the
singular exception of Sen.
Bernie Sanders of Vermont,
who has fueled his campaign
with more than 4 million individual contributions -- averaging, as he is quick to tell
us, just $27 each -- presidential candidates, to be competitive, must and do spend
a lot of time in the company
of and courting rich people
who are capable of making
six-figure donations to their
campaigns.
It’s a pretty good bet that
individuals who are capable
of writing a six-figure check
do not live in public housing or depend upon public
transportation or public recreation, and they probably
do not educate their children in public schools. The
Republican front-runner,
New York developer Donald
Trump, has avoided the fundraising frenzy. But his own
personal fortune keeps him
comfortably distanced from
the pressures faced by the
parents of the nearly 90 percent of American children
who go to and rely upon
public schools.
America’s political language is impoverished.
Where is the American appeal to the common good?
Let’s be clear: It is less hazardous politically for any
candidate to coddle voters -us -- rather than to challenge
us. As University of Massachusetts wise man Ralph
Whitehead has noted, the
cherished tradition of sacrifice in this nation has long
been in decline. Our culture
has devalued individual sacrifice for the common good
and has been reluctant to
recognize, let alone to remind us of, the mutual obligations we, as citizens, owe.
There has been an unspoken collaboration between
America’s
conservatives,
who want to privatize and
deregulate the economy, and
America’s liberals, who want
to privatize and deregulate
the culture. Privatization of
the economy leads to the
depreciation of the public
sector and, inevitably, to a
country where those of affluence and influence (but not
families of ordinary means)
are able to safely insulate
themselves from any deterioration in public services.
What Whitehead sees is an
almost implicit libertarian
bargain that has emerged
from liberals and conservatives: “I won’t meddle with
your lifestyle if you won’t
meddle with my free markets.”
The highest value becomes
a nonjudgmental tolerance.
The escape clause for Catholic Democrats who believe
abortion is wrong becomes
“I do not wish to impose my
views on others.” The fatal
flaw in this logic is simply to
substitute in place of abor-
Letter to the Editor...
Editor’s note – Letters to
the Editor reflect only the
opinion of the author and
not that of The Weekly News
of Cooke County. Facts contained in Letters to the Editor are claims of the author
only. The (...) denotes areas
that have been edited.
To the Editor,
An outrageous event
occurred at the Cooke
County
Courthouse
last week that should be
shared with The Weekly
News and the citizens of
Cooke County.
The Cooke County
Clerk’s office provides
several area newspapers
on their counter for the
use of the general public and for customers
who are in the courthouse conducting business. I had heard that
last week’s edition of
The Weekly News contained an article that reported Derrell Comer,
a candidate for District
Attorney in the March
primary, was endorsing
and supporting John
Warren for District Attorney in the May run-
off primary. As a supporter of Mr. Comer,
I was interested to read
his thoughts.
Unfortunately, I was
told by several persons who witnessed the
event, The Weekly News
had been removed from
the County Clerk’s
publication display by
the wife of Keith Orsburn. The Weekly News
also deposits several of
their papers on the second floor of the courthouse for the public’s
use, and I was told all
of these papers had also
been removed and dis-
carded by the same person who removed The
Weekly News from the
County Clerk’s office.
These actions go
against the very fabric
of what America stands
for. We are not a Third
World Banana Republic whose elected officials stay in power by
censoring public information and hiding the
truth from its citizens.
Both Cooke County,
Texas and America deserve better than this!

tion child prostitution, slavery or homophobia. Politics
brims with examples of one
side’s efforts to impose its
ethical values on the other.
That is exactly what the continuing debate over the Affordable Care Act is.
If your opponent is unpopular enough, you can
win a presidential election
by simply being the other
guy. But to successfully
lead the nation, a president
needs an affirmative vote endorsing what that president
seeks to do in office. So the
presidential candidates in
2016 need now to tell us
what sacrifices for the nation’s well-being and for the
common good they would
ask of all of us over the next
four years. But they must
not blow smoke; we are
grown-ups who know that
the future will not be painless. America is about “We
the People,” not all about
“Me the Person.” We know,
as the only American who
ever won the White House
four times taught us, that
“the test of our progress is
not whether we add more to
the abundance of those who
have much; it is whether we
provide enough for those
who have too little.”

Home Hospice Caregiver
Workshop Set for April
GAINESVILLE - Being
a caregiver can be a scary
proposition to someone
who has never cared for
someone before. There are
lots of questions and uncertainties. Caregivers often
feel as if they have more
things than they can handle
and no time for themselves.
Judith London states,
“Caregivers are often the casualties, the hidden victims.
No one sees the sacrifices
they make.” Are you caring
for a spouse, parent, or another person who is ill? Are
you confused about what to
do, what questions to ask,

and where to get help?
In our Caregiver Workshop, you will be better
prepared to have conversations with medical providers when you talk about
care, needs, finances, and
legal options. You will also
learn how to safely care for
someone as they require
more attention from you.
A key part of the training is
helping you be better prepared to take care of yourself. “The caregiver class
provides information about
the mechanics of caring for
your loved one, as well as
tools for self-care while providing care to your loved
one. Caring for self is not
selfish. Caring for self is
imperative,” stated Vicky
Lindsey, LCSW.
Those attending the workshop sessions will hear from
professionals including physicians, nurses, social workers, and chaplains. They
will have the chance to learn
about a wide range of topics,
including physical care, care
of the caregiver, emotional
concerns, and questions to
ask their physician.
“The thing that caregivers
are most frightened of is the
unknown,” said Dr. Ronald
Van Buskirk, Medical Director of Home Hospice.
“They long to be prepared
for what is going to happen;
the more information, guidance, and support we can
give them, the less anxiety
and stress they will be bur-
dened with in their role as a
caregiver.”
The Caregiver Workshop
will be offered on four consecutive Tuesdays, April 5,
12, 19, and 26 from 5:30 pm
until 7:00 pm in the Community Room at Muenster
State Bank in Gainesville,
located at 1601 Hwy 82 W.
Light refreshments will be
served. There is no charge
to attend the workshop and
it is open to anyone in the
community who is caring
for a loved one.
Register by April 1, call
Paula Britain at (940) 6659891 or by email at paula.

Please do not bring a car,
boat, RV, etc. without registering it on-line.”
“The last seven years, the
events have been huge successes due to the general
public, school districts, and
businesses donating literally truckloads of items. We
hope it will be even more
successful this time. Businesses and school districts
that have a large amount of
items can call the number
listed above and arrange a
special pick-up. Individuals and small businesses will
need to bring their items
the day of the event. We
will not pick up items nor
can we store them. Do not

Callisburg’s Croninger Named UIL
Young Filmmaker State Champion
CALLISBURG - Callisburg High School senior
Cari Croninger won backto-back state titles in UIL
Division I animated film
on March 2 in Austin, Texas at the Young Filmmakers Competition.
“I have a great appreciation for all of the
other contestants and acknowledge how hard they
worked. I truly appreciate
seeing that work ethic and
passion in other students
as they compete,” Croninger said.
Drop the Mic, Croninger’s 3-minute animation
depicts a world of technology human-hybrids. The
“microphone” is unhappy
with his situation and
wishes he could change
his fate. After a sequence
of events he realizes he can
make changes by voicing
his own opinions instead
of having others voice their
opinions through him.
“My intent with this film
was to inspire students to
find what they are truly
good at,” Croninger said.
Croninger returned to
state competition this year
wondering if she could
again repeat the success she
enjoyed last year.
“Seeing the competition
this year allowed me to see
how much I’ve improved
and makes me want to
keep doing animated film,”
Croninger said.
Callisburg High School
offers a solid core of subjects which also includes
many AP classes and dual
credit college hours, while
still delivering a curriculum
rich in electives to provide
students many opportunities to find their strengths
and excel in various areas.
Mrs. Angie Smith’s animation class is one that steers
students like Cari to try
something new in an effort
to have students explore
new career paths and tap
into their strengths.
“As a high school senior
I can say that I achieved
many things that many
high school students would
not get the opportunity to
do,” Croninger said, “and I
appreciate Callisburg ISD
and the many opportunities it has provided me--I’m
excited about my future.”
