West Stockbridge — The West Stockbridge Historical Society (WSHS) Nature Series will host “The World of Bees,” with ecologist Kyle Bradford on Friday, November 13, at 7 p.m. at Old Town Hall (9 Main Street). Audience members will have the opportunity to hear from Bradford about bees and the important work they do to hold together our food systems and ecosystems—and what is putting that work at risk. Admission is free for WSHS members with a $10 suggested donation for non-members. Those interested in attending should reserve their seats through the WSHS website. Bradford, a biologist at the Hawthorn Valley Farming Ecology Program, has over a decade of field experience, having worked and studied coast to coast. This includes ant surveys in Columbia County, N.Y., insect pest detection in California vineyards, and graduate research on ants in the pine barrens of western Massachusetts.

Your grandfather brought home an ancient artifact. A museum wants it back. Do you surrender it?

In your grandfather's attic you discover a beautiful ancient object he brought home while working overseas decades ago. Your family treasures it and his papers suggest the rules were murky. A museum from that country says it belongs to their collection and asks for its return.

Can a family inherit clear ownership of something acquired through unclear power?
