Mena man sentenced to federal prison A Mena man has been sentenced to over 11 years in federal prison for attempted online enticement of a minor. Fifty-three-year-old Kevin DeHart of Mena was sentenced Nov. 9 to 135 months in federal prison followed by five years of supervised release on one count of Attempted Online Enticement of a Minor. According to court records, in

July of 2017 the Mena Police department was conducting an undercover investigation into the online enticement of minors to engage in sexually activity in the Mena area. During the operation law enforcement utilized an online persona of a 14-year-old male while logged in to an undercover social media account.

An individual later identified as DeHart contacted the 14-year-old persona and began to question it in an illegal manner. At the end of the conversation specific plans were set up between DeHart and the purported minor to meet at DeHart’s residence. Law enforcement set up surveil-See Sentenced, continued pg. 3

City plans for Christmas Parade of Lights It’s that time of year when downtown Mena transforms into a place of wonder and magic for children and adults alike with our Annual Mena Christmas Parade of Lights.

Change is sometimes a very difﬁcult thing to accept-no matter how happy it makes you or how enjoyable the experience. I’m one of those people that is adamantly against change. I like routine. However, last summer I needed a change. Being grown, my children didn’t need my help like they did before and I was bored and trying to ﬁgure out what path my life took now that “mom” wasn’t center stage.

Classic ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ Community meeting planned A Community Engagement Part- within a community is to establish to be presented by OLT nership Meeting has been sched- a community panel that consists of The Ouachita Little Theatre will be presenting “It’s A Wonderful Life” this holiday season. In 1946, Frank Capra released his most beloved film of all time; “It’s A Wonderful Life.” It starred James Stewart and Donna Reed who played George and Mary Bailey; a couple whose simple and unselfish lives have inspired generations. Over the years, this film has become a classic, one of American cinema’s most loved movies. The story centers on George, who has given up his own dreams in order to make the lives of those around him improve. When these sacrifices have made his own life seemingly unbearable, George is driven to the point of considering suicide. While standing on a bridge, ready to plunge into freezing water, his guardian angel, Clarence intervenes. George is given a rare gift; to see what his community of Bedford Falls and the lives of those who he has touched would be like if he had never been born.

This beloved film has been made into a stage play that is being performed by OLT. Under the direction of Linda Johnson, who has been working with her large cast and crew for months preparing this delightful Christmas show to entertain Polk County audiences. The message of the play is undeniably positive, and is both funny, dramatic, and suitable for all ages. It is among the best family entertainment you will find in the area to kindle the holiday spirit. The production opens Friday, December 7 at 7:30 p.m. with continuing performances scheduled for Sat., Dec. 8, Sun., Dec. 9, and Fri., Dec.14, Sat., Dec. 15, and Sun., Dec.16. Friday and Saturday performances start at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees are at 2:30 p.m. Advance seating tickets are on sale now at the OLT office, located at 610 Mena Street, weekdays 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tickets are also available at the door. The OLT encourages you to attend this weekend or next.

During an interview DeHart admitted he was the one communicating with what he thought was a minor online. DeHart was indicted by a federal grand jury in April 2018 and pled guilty in July 2018. The case was investigated by the

Mena Police Department and the United States Secret Service. Assistant U.S. Attorney Dustin Roberts prosecuted the case for the United States. The Honorable P.K. Holmes, III, Chief United States District Judge presided over the sentencing hearing in the U.S. District Court in Fort Smith.

uled for Fri., Dec. 7 beginning at 11 a.m. in the Ouachita Center of UA Rich Mountain. The meeting has been planned by the U.S. Department of Veteran’s Affairs Suicide Prevention Program and is open to all members of the community. Suicide has become the tenth leading cause of death for military veterans in Arkansas and the rate is rising. The VA is asking for members of the community to help them combat this crisis and other issues our veterans face on a daily basis. According to Peer Support Specialist Dale Schultz, CPS, the best way for the VA to know the needs

10-15 people. The panel will decide what the needs of the community are, present them and the VA will help by standing with the panel to get the needs of the community met. Life does not have to be so hard for our returning veterans and suicides can be prevented but it will take a joint effort of the community and the VA to get programs in place. More information will be presented at the meeting, but you may contact Shultz at 501-231-3129 or by e-mail at dale.schultz@va.gov or Chris Short, CPS at 501-352-7626 or by e-mail at johnshort2@va.gov.

Reisig releases new novel Fans of Mena author Michael Reisig’s “Road To Key West” series will be happy to know that the adventure continues in the ninth book of the bestselling series, “A Pirates Road To Key West.” Reisig once again locks his readers into a careening odyssey of hidden fortunes, mercurial romance, conscienceless villains, and bizarre friends. From Caracas to New Orleans, into the dark fringes of Haiti, down through the Windward Islands, then back into The Florida Keys, Kansas Stamps, Will Bell, and The Hole In The Coral Wall Gang chase a stolen Pre-Columbian treasure. Then there’s the Voodoo-practicing drug boss, a vengeful Columbian Don, and a highly artful assassin. Before you can catch your breath,

it all rolls together into a turbulent Key West Fantasy Fest finale. So, sit back, pour yourself a margarita, and slide into the islands one more time. You’re on “The Road” again. Be it Key West, South America, The Caribbean – or the cramped cockpit of a questionable aircraft, Reisig writes with the subtle, but specific familiarity of someone who’s actually lived it. His real-life experiences in Key West’s legendary outlaw era, and his well-researched accuracy, brings a balance and believability to the far-flung adventures that offer readers a sun-drenched escape from the nonfiction of everyday life. The book is available for purchase on Amazon.

Reflections From Faith and History Thanksgiving and Thanksliving-By Jeff Olson It has often been said that Thanksgiving is the original American holiday. More significantly, it is an American institution; a stable

remnant of our national heritage which still serves as the best opportunity for people of all distinctions to express in unity each year

the thankfulness which we all can share and express to our God. The historic truths of Thanksgiving’s Christian origin and biblical foundation in America, as well as some of the traditions that have stemmed from this, serve to remind us of God’s blessing on us as a people and His Divine Providence over us as a nation. During the past four centuries, this celebration has served to reinforce our spiritual moorings and our bonds within our homes, churches, and communities, and has been an integral part of our national identity. This special observance can today serve as much- needed common thread to help mend a society which has become torn and fragmented into a myriad of special interest groups through the lens of identity politics, class warfare, and multiculturalism.

With a decline in respect for those values and institutions which once united us as a people, this is very important if we hope to ever regain at least some of the cultural cohesiveness necessary for us to once again become one nation - one nation under God. In the words of President Abraham Lincoln: “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” (Mark 3: 24-25) Let's take a brief look back: After their arduous sixty-five day sea journey across the Atlantic Ocean "undertaken, for ye glorie of God and advancement of ye Christian faith and honour of our king and countrie," the Pilgrims suffered through a harsh New England winter in which almost half of their families and friends died. -See History, continued pg. 16 N O T I C E

CA. She held several different occupations previous to Bus Driving, as her husband was Active Duty Navy and required them to move around the country often. She raised three kids of her own, and then her and her husband decided to raise three of their grandkids after they were put into the California foster system. After getting full custody of their grand-kids, Don and Carol decided to move to Arkansas and volunteer full time for Christian Motorcyclist Association (CMA). Throughout her life, Carol was a second mom to many of the kids in her life. After her and Don retired, she spent a lot of her time volun-teering at her church, at the local hospital and for CMA.

Bearcats wrap up football season Easton Leonard Last Friday night, November 16, the Mena Bearcats (8-4, 5-2) senior high football team traveled to Shiloh Christian, to take on the Saints (11-1, 7-0) in the second round of the 4A State Football Playoffs. The Bearcats kicked the ball off to Shiloh to begin the game. A couple of plays into their first drive, the Saints scored on a short 1-yard touchdown run, but failed their two-point-conversion try, to make the score 6-0 with around ten minutes left in the first quarter. Mena was forced to punt on their first offensive possession of the game. The Saints earned possession of the ball again and scored on a 66-yard touchdown pass, to make the score 12-0, after a failed

On the Bearcats next possession, Shiloh returned their punt for a touchdown, and made their two-point-conversion, to extend their lead to 20-0 with 6:13 left in the first quarter of play. Following another Mena punt, the Saints scored again in the first quarter on a 15-yard touchdown pass with 5:05 left in the quarter, to make the score 28-0 after a two-point-conversion. The Bearcats then turned the ball on over down on their next offensive possession. The Saints then held the ball into the second quarter and scored on a 5-yard touchdown pass, to make the score 35-0 after a made point-after-attempt. Shiloh then attempted a success-

ful onside kick to earn the ball back, and a couple of plays later scored on a 15-yard touchdown pass with 10:45 left in the second quarter, making the score 42-0. After another turnover on downs by the Bearcats, Shiloh scored on a 45-yard touchdown run by their quarterback, to make the score 49-0 with 6:59 left before halftime. Mena was forced to go for it on fourth down again on their next offensive possession, but came up short, to give the Saints the ball back. Shiloh then scored one last time in the first half, on a 22-yard touchdown pass with 3:30 left, making the eventual halftime score 56-0 in favor of the Saints. On their first offensive possession of the second half, the Bearcats

drove down to the 22-yard line before Zane Stephens completed a touchdown pass to Brock Strother, putting Mena on the board with 8:24 left in the third quarter, down 56-7. In a very non-offensive second half, the last three point were scored on a Shiloh field goal with 8:37 left in the fourth quarter, to make the official final score 59-7.

They were soon befriended by members of the Wampanoag Tribe who taught the naive colonists about fishing, planting and hunting. In early autumn 1621, after the Pilgrims had reaped a bountiful harvest and preserved enough food to allow them to survive the coming winter, they shared a threeday feast and prayer service with

their Native American friends to celebrate the harvest and the transformation of their fortunes from the previous winter. This is traditionally considered the first Thanksgiving in America. I believe that our Pilgrim Forefathers saw thanksgiving in a broader scope - that of thanksLIVING in which they sought to live each and every day with a mindset and heart of thankfulness (1 Thessalonians 5:18).

-History, from pg. 16 which we mistakenly assume will be there tomorrow - a day we are not guaranteed; and the opportunity and freedom to worship God and to make other choices in our lives. In seeking a deeper perspective and broader scope of truth in thanksgiving, have we ever thanked God for not only what He has given us but also what he has taken away

from us through Christ Jesus (John 1:29)? He took away our sins and the accompanying guilt and shame; He took away the penalty for those sins - an eternity in Hell; He took away His own remembrance of all our confessed sins which are washed away by the blood of Jesus (Jeremiah 31:34); He took away a meaningless life; He took away this life's hopelessness and death’s permanence and the eternal separation from those of our friends and family who are His and who have gone on before

us. And the list goes on. So, during this special day and season, may our thanks be given first and foremost to Almighty God. And, shall we then acknowledge Him as our provider and commit to His truth as our light and guide as we elevate thanksgiving beyond its temporary holiday status and into the substance and reality of everyday
