______ Throughout the evening
fi lends ot Hackman were called
Lancaster Farming. Saturday. March 8,1969
STATE LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION of congratula-
Slaton told the audience that
in the beginning Hackman’s
conseivation moves at his Man*
heim faim weren’t the most pop*
ular things with his neighbors.
“But in time, the neighbors
began to look over the fence at
Henry’s place and later the ap
pearance of their farmland be
gan to change,” he said.
In citing some of Hackman’s
feats, the conservation official
said he had drained his land,
planted new grasses, improved
his cattle herds and still taught
science to youngsters.
Hackman also is a science
teacher at Donegal High School.
Robert G Struble, executive
vice president, Brandywine Val
ley Association, West Chester,
compared Hackman’s way of
life with a poem of Douglas
Malloch’s, “Life’s Tiue Values.”
Weaver labeled the conserva
tionist a man who has lived and
preached the good life Weaver
said he had known Hackman
since the time both were school
teachers
Finally Hackman stepped to
the lecturn
“I’ve got mixed emotions
about this It’s just awfully
hard to believe all of this can
be happening to me tonight,”
he said
