Letterr to the EdiitorrDear Editor,
Greetings and salutations! I would describe for yousome of my experiences thusly, as a member of VFWPost 5617, located on Cherry Lane, in WhiteSettlement.
The VFW, which stands for Veterans of ForeignWars, is a conglomeration of truly unique and inspiringindividuals from all walks of life. We are military vet-erans that have either seen first-hand combat situations,or served in combat zones that induced stressful envi-ronments from which we survived, sometimes notcompletely intact, yet always with a deep desire toserve again if the duty calls. We all agreed to kill, die,and, most importantly, fight for our fellow Americancitizens, our beloved United States Constitution, andOld Glory our bearing standard.
I never talked about my military experience forwell over 25 years, and to find a place that I could sharemy experiences has been a blessing. Our VFW post hasdone amazing things that would make anyone humbleby comparison. During this past holiday season, weadopted two families of veterans, in order to make cer-tain that the children of those families had amazingChristmases. A long-time member of our VFW post,suffering health issues,was in need so we held araffle and were able toearn enough money topurchase him an electriclift chair, and alsoinstalled hand rails in hisbathroom.
Thank you for yourtime and consideration. Ihope my words have donesome semblance of justiceto an already outstandingorganization.

A Smile by Dr. Michael Haro
“The shortest distance between two people is asmile.” (Victor Borge) It takes more muscles to frownthan to smile. Your smile tells others you value themand offers potential interaction prospects. A smile isworth a number of words telling others you are accept-ing and pleased to be associating with them. Smilingbreaks down barriers, providing recipients with aninvitation to respond in kind. What starts out to be briefencounters may provoke enduring and lasting relation-ships. A smile doesn’t verbally say anything, but it canopen doors and opportunities.

Texas History Minute
Texas Rangers Captain William Jesse McDonald by Dr. Ken Bridges
The Texas Rangers in its long history in the state has produced legendaryfigures in its quest to uphold the law. Captain William Jesse McDonald wasone of many examples.
McDonald's life had led him to serve at different times as a schoolteacher, shopkeeper, rancher, and eventually becoming one of the mostrespected law men in Texas.
He was born in 1852 in eastern Mississippi. He was still a child when hisfather, Enoch McDonald, volunteered to fight with the Confederacy duringthe Civil War. But in 1862, his father was killed at the Battle of Corinth.After, his widowed mother took them to Henderson County in East Texas.
He was stubborn from a young age. At the age of 16 in 1868, he report-edly got into a fight with Union troops and found himself charged with trea-son.
Only the intervention of a prominent local officials resulted in thecharges being dropped.
However, he had a keen mind and attended Soule Business College inNew Orleans, graduating in 1872. He became a school teacher for a timebefore opening a couple of stores in East Texas.
Later, he became a deputy sheriff in Wood County. In 1883, he and hiswife moved to Wichita Falls to take up ranching.
They moved further west to Quanah several years later. Cattle thieves andorganized gangs terrorized the few settlers in the area, hiding in the vaststretches of empty land.
He became a deputy sheriff again, and as raids worsened, McDonald wasmade a special Texas Ranger, attacking marauders far and wide to finallybring order to the area.
As a result, in 1891, he was named captain of the Texas Rangers FrontierBattalion, where he and his fellow Rangers worked to protect citizens fromfurther raids and to act as the police for remote locations that had none.
As a Ranger, he had a reputation as a keen observer and tracker. Long
before forensics became a standard tool of law enforcement, McDonald wasusing the same principles in solving cases and capturing fugitives, an other-wise nearly impossible task on the seemingly endless stretches of land acrossthe state in the late 1800s.
He found himself in many shootouts, including one with the sheriff ofChildress County in 1893.
Though shot on several occasions himself, he reportedly never tookanother life, but his skill with a gun and reputation preceded him and used itto defuse many difficult situations without a weapon.
In February 1896, McDonald solved a bank robbery in daring fashion.Bandits had seized $600 at a bank in Wichita Falls, killed one man, andwounded another in a blaze of bullets in broad daylight.
Within two hours of receiving the message on a train, he had arrived atthe station, and ridden out of the city with a posse of five other Rangers inpursuit of the murderers. They charged through the brush on a blustery win-ter day and caught them within hours.
In 1905, he briefly served as a bodyguard for President TheodoreRoosevelt. When he retired from the Rangers in 1907, he took a job as staterevenue agent, ultimately collecting more than one billion dollars for Texas.
In 1912, incoming President Woodrow Wilson also tapped McDonald ashis personal bodyguard. In recognition of his work, Wilson namedMcDonald as United States Marshal for North Texas.
In early 1918, he died of pneumonia at his home in Wichita Falls.McDonald has since been inducted in the Texas Rangers Hall of Fame inWaco in recognition of his colorful life and unwavering dedication as a lawman.

Participating groups self-monitor a road orpark and plan clean-up events based on the sched-ules of group members. Groups may plan month-ly clean-ups or as the area dictates.
Groups may deposit collected trash and debris(in plastic bags) at the City Maintenance Shoplocated at 467 Winscott Road. The City can pro-vide trash bags, latex gloves and reflective safetyvests as requested.
Once a My Benbrook Mile location has beendetermined and the group establishes a commit-ment to adopt the area, a road sign designating thegroup is erected in the area.
