  • Gelene Simpson.jpg The Gladys We Knew

    If I had to choose someone to describe as a beautiful Christian lady, it would have been Gladys E. (Stratton) Dietel of Dawson who left this world at age 97 on Jan. 28. She had been a member of the Fellowship Sunday School Class at First United Methodist Church of Dawson, and as the teacher of that class, I learned to expect Gladys to put her whole heart into anything she undertook to do.

  • Brown Deanna New09.jpg Food for thought

    If ever you’ve been one, like me, who battles their weight constantly, no doubt you’ve been on some weird diets.

  • Bill Tinsley Jesus’ creed

    Everyone has a creed because everyone believes something. Even atheists have a creed, which is their belief that God does not exist. A creed is simply a statement of what we believe

  • Linex publisher.jpg Super Bowl fever hardly registers here, right?

    It’s the day after National Signing Day, the day of high school realignment. Coaching change talk can be found. The Super Bowl looms.
    But does it feel right?

  • Gelene Simpson.jpg Remember these signs?

    When I was growing up on the south side of Corsicana, a great many people were concerned with what they called “signs.” Some were related to animals and some were pertaining to the weather, crops and such. With Groundhog Day coming upon Thursday, Feb. 2, I am reminded of just how often signs were part of our daily lives.

  • Brown Deanna New09.jpg The secret to life

     I used to be surprised and at times, confounded, when God would use other people to speak to an area of need in my own life.
    Now, when it happens, I’m not shocked, but don’t take it for granted, either.

  • NEW McClanahan mug.jpg Mayor: 'No' to Animal Shelter bond vote

    I recently conducted a survey to determine the priorities of the citizens I represent. The top two concerns were the condition of the streets and the observation that the tax rate is high. Recently, I was asked to place an item on the City Council agenda that, if passed, would either raise taxes or take funding away from the current street bond program.

  • Bill Tinsley Beyond Religion

    A young friend of mine wrote on his Facebook page, “Religion is still the opiate of the masses.” He got some interesting responses. One person agreed with him. Another wrote, “It can’t be. If it was, I would take it for recreational purposes.”

  • Linex publisher.jpg Facebook debacle became news when it became public

    By now, you have likely read, discussed or overhead details pertaining to Hooper-Hocker-gate. Unfortunate situation, we likely all can agree. A Facebook posting made by an individual who had every right to make it got a response from someone who should have just kept to himself. It made the newspaper.
