FUN!
Uncertainty about
school finance, lower
enrollment led to move
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MONT IDA – Between now and
August, Amish families who
previously sent their children
to public school at Mont Ida
will have a decision to make:
Should they send their children to a larger public school
with mostly non-Amish children versus homeschooling or
a private school?
USD 365 Board of Education
members last week voted not to
replace a broken boiler at Mont
Ida Elementary School, effectively closing the school. Two
board members were in favor
of replacing the boiler; five
other members, though, said it
wasnt worth investing $32,100
to keep the 87-year-old building
operational, and students could
attend other schools in the district.
Board members did not say
what they would do with the
building.
Nineteen students attended the school until the broken
boiler was discovered when
students returned from winter
break in January. Since then,
theyve been attending classes
at Westphalia, about 10 miles
southwest of Mont Ida.
Mont Ida was unique
because nearly all of the children who attended came from
an Amish background or similar religions, although at
times non-Amish students also
attended. Parents interviewed
for a previous Review article
said they preferred to send
their children to a public school

Friday, April 8. The carnival is a fundraiser for the school.
The Mont Ida school building was built in 1929. Board members
voted not to replace a broken boiler at the school, effectively closing
it, but did not say what they plan to do with the building.

Jack Foltz gets his face painted at the carnival.
Grass fire danger
More races shape up in 2016 election continues in area
County clerk challenged, most
incumbents have filed to keep
seats in November election
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Anderson County Clerk
Phyllis Gettler will have at least one challenger for her job in the next election cycle.
Julie Heck, a Republican who works at
the Franklin County Clerks Office, filed
for the clerks position on March 7. The
filing isnt a surprise.
Heck announced her
intention to challenge
Gettler, a Democrat, several months ago on social
media, but didnt make it
official until last month.
So far, the clerks race
is the only known contested race leading up to
Heck
the November election.
However, a small handful of new faces are entering the political
arena, but so far they have filed for seats
in which the incumbent has not yet filed
nor indicated if he intends to run. That
includes seats on the Garnett city commission where incumbent Greg Gwin is
up for re-election but has not yet filed, and
Anderson County Commission District 3,
currently held by Eugene Highberger of
Westphalia. Paula Scott and Travis Wilson
have filed for the Garnett city position, and
Dave Pracht of Westphalia has filed for
Highbergers seat.
Theres still plenty of time for candidates

If you start fire, youre
responsible for damages
caused, fire chief warns
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Recent rains did
little to relieve the threat of
wildfire danger last week, with
two storms dropping just 0.12
inches of rain over the area.
Firefighters, meanwhile, con-
tinue to battle a series of out-ofcontrol grass fires but managed
to keep them from damaging
personal property.
In just one day last week, fire
crews responded to 11 calls to
tame out-of-control grass fires.
Those fires were contained
relatively quickly, thanks to
the ready response of volunteer firefighters, Anderson
County Rural Fire Chief Mick
Brinkmeyer said.

SCHOOL…
FROM PAGE 1A
because it gave them an opportunity to learn about the world
outside the Amish faith, as
well as important subjects like
computers and advanced math.
But because the school was
small and comprised mostly
of students from similar backgrounds, it also helped protect
the students from problems
like bullying or bad behaviors
like lying, the parents said. The
two teachers understood the
parents concerns and handled
difficult issues like science and
evolution with sensivity and
care, they said.
The school had been recognized for excellence in academics for student achievements in
standardized tests.
Most of the parents who
responded to a survey about
their plans if the school were
to be closed said they would
remain in the public school
system, while a few indicated
they would choose to homeschool or look for a private
school option. Board members
considered that data as they
debated whether to close the
school. Previous school funding formulas at the state level
provided financial assistance
to schools based on enrollment,
so a loss of students potentially
could offset any savings from
closing the school building.
A report from the U.S.
Census Bureau says that when
combined with other financing
factors, Kansas on average paid
about $6,537 per pupil in 2013. A
similar report from the Census
Bureau said the total per-student revenue – including local,
state and federal dollars – on
average in Kansas in 2013 was
$11,596.
Superintendent Don Blome
said it costs the district about
$8,000 to $9,000 to educate each
Mont Ida student, while the district average was about $6,000.
But Mont Ida does not have
the highest per pupil cost, he
said. That distinction goes to
Westphalia, because it has
more buildings and more staff,
and therefore more expenses.
In the end, though, a majority of the board members felt
the Mont Ida school building
wasnt worth the investment,
especially because of uncer-
tainty regarding school funding from the state. Legislators,
facing a court order and threat
of closing schools June 30 if
they didnt fix the current funding formula, recently passed
a new funding plan but it
remains to be seen if the court
will approve it.
Weve got the money to do
the boiler. The boiler is not so
much the issue. My concern is
whats it going to cost going forward, board member Dwight
Nelson said. We just continue
to fight for every dollar we get.
… We do need to take action
now. I dont think funding is
going to get any better and I
dont think enrollment is going
to get any better.
Board member Gary Teel
agreed. I think we can do as
good a job at the building at
Westphalia. Its not the building that educates students, its
the teachers and staff.
The board ultimately voted
2-5 on replacing the boiler.
Board members who voted
against replacing the boiler were Nelson, Teel, Board
President Deanna Wolken,
Sonya Martin and Michael
Richards. Board members voting to replace the boiler and
keep the school open were Cleon
Rickel and Gaylene Comfort.
Rickel argued it wasnt worth
the chance of losing Mont Ida
students to private school,
which would further contribute to declining enrollment.
Some of the Mont Ida parents who previously responded
to questions from the Review
said although they wanted the
school to remain open, they
understood and would respect
the boards position.
After last weeks meeting,
parent David Miller said he
isnt yet sure what his family will do. He has children
in grades 1 and 2. Garnett
actually would be closer than
Westphalia for his family, but
he hasnt yet spent any time
at Garnett Elementary School
and doesnt know if it would be
a good fit.
We have some things to
work through, now, he said.
His message for the school
board was simple: Thank you
for keeping it open as long as
it has been. Its been a good
school.

SOUND
If you hear a hissing sound around your natural
gas appliances or meter, this could be an
indication of a natural gas leak.
SIGHT
If you see blowing dirt, persistent bubbling in
standing water or unexplained discoloration
of vegetation, these may be signs of a natural
gas leak.
If you see yellow instead of blue flames from
your natural gas appliance burners, have
them serviced by a licensed professional. A
yellow flame is a warning sign natural gas isnt
burning efficiently, which can increase the
potential for carbon monoxide poisoning.
SMELL
If you smell an odor like sulfur or rotten eggs
in or around your home, this may be the
warning sign of a natural gas leak.
If you suspect a natural gas leak, leave your home immediately and use a telephone away from

LOCAL
The truth, courtesy of Bill Clinton
Leave it to Bill Clinton to speak the
truth.
Huh?
Uncanny as it seems, thats exactly
what happened last week during a campaign stop for his wife in Philadelphia,
when the former president was
harangued by a group of Black Lives
Matter protesters who horned their
way to the front of the podium with
signs saying Hillarys a Murderer.
Say what you will about Bill Clinton,
but when hes sharp, hes sharp. The
issue went back to a 1994 law Clinton
signed as president that increased federal sentencing guidelines for violent
offenders and provided more money
for prisons and for cops on the street.
We can argue about it, but the fact is
violent crime rates dropped and conviction rates increased since then.
But what the BLM honchos take issue
with is that the result also has been
a huge number of incarcerated black
males, the haunting echo of which
resounds against a 1996 comment made
by Hillary which is being used as a
pry bar against her this year by black
activists They are often the kinds of
kids that are called super-predators,
she said after her husbands legislation
was enacted. No conscience, no empathy, we can talk about why they ended
up that way, but first we have to bring
them to heel.
Nothing to apologize for there, at
least in most peoples minds. But BLM,
like so many other Shout Down
movements these days that believe
volume alone makes virtue, wont let
it rest. Then they ran into Bill, who
apparently has about had a belly full
of these folks, whether Hillary needs
them or not.
I dont know how you would characterize the gang leaders who got 13-yearold kids hopped up on crack and sent
them out on the street to murder other
African-American children, Clinton
told the crowd, growing more red-faced.
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
Maybe you thought they were good
citizens. She didntYou are defending
the people who kill the people whose
lives you say matter.
Then he capped it with Tell the
truth! Which, I have to say, coming
from him, sort of makes the hair stand
up on the back of my neck.
But Clinton became the dragon
the BLM and its ilk hate the most
a white man professing facts that
much of the black community wants to
ignore; accountability that is extremely uncomfortable when the easy-wayout script is to blame racism for the ills
besetting ones people.
But the biggest surprise came in
the media pounce that Clinton is now
enduring. How could he say such a
thing to the people Hillary so desperately needs to win the election? The
cow-towing should be consistent, after
all. Hes a liability she needs to shed,
said liberals in the press.
Like most other arguments that suggest accountability instead of scape
goat-ery, the former presidents words
will incite only more chants of denial
from the BLM movement.
But Clintons comments illustrate
something poignant: a lot of people
even those typically on their side
have had about enough of the false victim charade of BLM. Its a truth even
Bill Clinton can speak.

Hey kids: Do not fear the chalk
Students at the University of Michigan
called police the other day — because someone had written Donald Trumps name in
chalk.
No arrests were made. The episode is part
of a nationwide trend of Trump supporters
writing pro-Trump messages on sidewalks,
stairs and other surfaces at college campuses, where fainting fits are sure to ensue.
When they could get no relief from law
enforcement, the University of Michigan
students took it upon themselves to erase
the offending messages — including Trump
2016, Build the Wall and Stop Islam -while fighting through feelings of betrayal.
One student complained that there should
be a special emergency number to call in
such cases and said that the administrations
inadequate response perpetuates these really racist and hateful stereotypes that turn
into violence and turn into students of color
feeling unsafe on campus.
Rarely before have a few scribblings been
so traumatizing — and written not even in
ink or paint or some other difficult-to-remove substance, but in the same chalk used
to mark out hopscotch courts and write
temporary promotional messages about
sorority mixers. That chalk messages can be
considered tantamount to a physical threat
captures the crisis of free speech on campus
perfectly.
Pro-Trump chalking took off after the
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
reaction at Emory University, where some
students were reduced to tears by the messages and said they felt fear. Protesters
gathered at an administration building and
let loose the antiphonal chant You are
not listening! Come speak to us, we are in
pain! This might have been an appropriate
response if the kids had been tear-gassed,
rather than seeing a positive phrase about a
candidate that is supported by some significant plurality of the American public.
The president of the school, James
Wagner, promised to review security footage
to try to identify the perpetrators, and in a
statement full of campus-diversity jargon
pledged, among other things, immediate
refinements to certain policy and procedural
deficiencies and regular and structured
opportunities for difficult dialogues.
How about striking an even greater blow
for diversity and asking the kids to get over
seeing an anodyne political message that
they disagree with? To his credit, Wagner
himself chalked Emory stands for free
expression, a message that will evidently have trouble penetrating the formidable
incuriosity of some of his students.
The reaction to the chalkening, as its
become known on social media, is a testament to the electric charge surrounding
Trump. This branding isnt prudent positioning for a general election, but it makes
Trump a perfect vehicle for provoking the
other side, and its in that thumb-in-the-eye
spirit that the Trump chalking is spreading.
The students getting the vapors over it
dont understand free expression or what it
means to live in a free society, where you
inevitably encounter people who have ideas
and support candidates that you oppose.
They hate Donald Trump. Fine. That is reason to argue and agitate against him, not to
seek protection from any contact with supporters of his, no matter how tenuous.
If they are having a hard time handling this election cycle, just imagine how
Republican National Committee chairman
Reince Priebus feels.

seemed like they were kept awfully
busy last week. I kept hearing the siren

were out there for us. Please keep them

them before you burn anything or even
before you throw out a cigarette. Weve

School finance debate may not be over yet
In the same five-page order for a hearing
on whether the Kansas Legislature has met its
constitutional duty to provide equal support
for public education, the court also has likely
taken itself off the hook for its threat to close
public schools on July 1.
Nope, its not right at the top of the order
that sets a schedule for a hearing on whether
the Legislature has, to the satisfaction of the
high court, equitably funded capital outlay
and supplemental state aid for school districts
but down on the last page.
Down on page five, it says, The briefs
should address the remedial action to be
ordered, and upon what date it should take
effect, if the court were to conclude compliance has not been achieved.
Thats the key: Did the Legislatures internal shuffling of money within the school
finance formula equalize the states aid to
school districtseven with the inherently disequalizing hold harmless provisionmeet
the courts order to deliver equal assistance to
all districts, or not?
If the court finds that the moving around
of existing fundsand giving districts their
mathematically computed level of aid, and
some a little moremeets constitutional muster, then the deal is done, and everything goes
away. Maybe, except for that troublesome
hold harmless provision that makes sure
that in the reapportionment of state aid no
district loses any state money.
If the court finds that the school spending
bill that Gov. Sam Brownback signed into law
last week doesnt meet that equity standard,
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
then it gets interesting.
The high courts Feb. 11 order to the
Legislature to fix that inequity or see the
jurists shut down appropriations to public
schools on July 1 becomes the thick black
cloud hanging over the state.
The states position before the court is that
the Legislature has fixed the problem spending no new money, just reshuffling it among
districtsexcept for those that would lose
money in the deal, and they are held harmless.
Oh, and that financing public schools is the
Legislatures job and the court should stay out
of that.
The school districts which are suing the
state for not meeting its constitutional duty to
equitably finance public education dont think
the shuffling of money around meets that goal.
They have suggested that for about $38 million more or so, lawmakers could equitably
finance that capital improvement and Local
Option Budget assistance, and that small piece
of the school finance issue could be cured.
But that hammer the court waved around
closing schools if the appropriation of that
special assistance is unconstitutionally distributed, making the appropriations unlawful
to disperse to districtsgot smaller when the
court asked the state and the schools to offer
up their own plans for remedial action.
Key is that if the finance-fix is unconstitutional, were betting that neither the state nor
the schools in the case want schools closed.
The state, which includes the Legislature that
passed the bill (32-5 in the Senate and 93-31 in
the House) in this year in which all members
stand for re-election, doesnt want those voters to believe legislators closed schools, and
the schools, well, were betting that they want
to stay open.
Best guess is that if neither party to the
lawsuit wants schools closed, they are going
to come up with remedial action that is just
short of closing down anything. And, because
five members of the Kansas Supreme Court
stand for retention election this year, were
betting that the court will find at least one
sides remedial action fits the bill.
The lawsuit isnt over by a long shot. But
were betting that the threat of closing down
schools is.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, April 12, 2016
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, April 12, 2016
Everything truly does
happen for a purpose
Providence is the continuous activity of God in his creation by which he preserves
and governs. The doctrine of
providence affirms Gods absolute lordship over his creation
and confirms the dependence
of all creation on the Creator.
It is the denial of the idea that
the universe is governed by
chance or fate.
It is sometimes supposed
that God knows the future
but cannot control it; that he
upholds the world, but does not
intervene in it; or that he gives
general direction, but is not
concerned with details. The
Bible rules out all such limitations of his providence.
In Psalm 106:9 we read;
The LORD has established
his throne in the heavens, and
his kingdom rules over all.
This text makes it clear that
God knows the future and controls it. In Matthew 5:45 Jesus
states that he (God) makes his
sun rise on the evil and on
the good, and sends rain on
the just and the unjust. This
text speaks of Gods intervention in the world. In Matthew
10:29-30 Jesus states; Are not
two sparrows sold for a penny.
And not one of them will fall
to the ground apart from your
Father. But even the hairs
of your head are numbered.
This text shows Gods involvement even in the smallest of
details.
One mans life God worked
extensively in was Josephs.
God made Joseph the favorite
son of his father Jacob. While
this made Josephs life easy it
came with a large burden. His
brothers hated him and plotted
to kill him. Instead of killing

him they sold him to a group
of passing merchants who took
him to Egypt. The brothers
told their father that Joseph
had been killed by a wild animal and produced his coat covered with blood.
Joseph was sold into slavery by the merchants and then
later thrown into prison for a
crime he did not commit. In
each instance Joseph received
injustice. Yet God worked in
his life and finally used these
unjust circumstances to raise
him to prime minister of Egypt,
second only to Pharaoh where
he would save his family from
starvation as well as establish
the beginnings of the great
Hebrew nation.
God does the very same
thing in each of our lives. He
(God) allows us to create the
tangled mess we sometimes
make of our lives. The difficulties, disappointments and
wrongs are all for a purpose.
People may go against Gods
will of command, yet they fulfill his will of events. Peoples
motives may be evil, yet God
uses their actions for good.
Christians are never in the grip
of blind fortune, chance, luck
or fate. All that happens to
them is divinely planned. As
Joseph told his brothers, You
intended to harm me but God
intended it for good.

OSAWATOMIE AC dropped
both games of a double-header
at Osawatomie last week to fall

Kyle Lambs fourth inning
single was the Bulldogs only
hit in game one in a hard fought
2-0 defeat. Oz scored runs in the
first and sixth innings to pull
out the victory.
Sophomore Austin Peine
had his solid pitching performance ruined by a poor offensive showing by the Bulldogs.
Peine pitched 6 innings,
allowed four hits, walked two
batters and allowed just one
earned run.
AC trailed 3-1 until the sixth
inning of the nightcap, when
Oz pulled out the stops and

the final.
Jacob Rundle led off the
inning with a walk and would
wind up scoring on a 2-out double by Mason Louk.
Starting pitcher Cole Denny
put in 4 innings, allowing two
hits and three runs, one of them
earned. Austin Ewert pitched
two good innings before the
wheels came off. Osawatomie

Tyson: A look at property tax lid, K-12 funding
Property taxes continue to
increase and it is an issue, but
the property tax lid that was
signed into law last year is not
the solution. The property tax
lid will go into effect in 2018,
requiring a vote of the people
if a city or county attempts to
increase property tax greater
than changes in the Consumer
Price Index (CPI) of the previous year. The law interferes
with local control and has
logistic problems. I did not
vote for the bill that contained
this language. However, in an
attempt to fix some of the existing problems, I did vote for
the Senate Substitute for House
Bill (S Sub for HB) 2088. The
bill that passed last year does
allow for some exceptions of
the required vote. However,
those exceptions do not include
emergency situations or emergency services. S Sub for HB
2088 does include an exception for emergency services.
The bill also clarifies that a
regular election (August or
November), a special election,
or mail ballots could be used to
fulfill the voting requirement.
Other changes in S Sub for HB
2088 include: the effective date
would be moved to January 1,
2017 instead of 2018; and changes the trigger from the previous
year CPI to a five-year rolling
average of the CPI. The bill
passed the Senate on a vote of
24 to 16 and has been sent to
conference committee.
The Kansas Supreme Court
gave the legislature an ultimatum and threatened to shut
down schools if the legislature
did not appropriate funds by
KANSAS
LEGISLATURE
By CARYN TYSON,
Kansas Senate
12th District
June 30, 2016 according to the
Courts liking. Interestingly,
the ruling only concerns how
.5% of the entire K-12 budget is
distributed.
In response to the Court, SB
512 was written to reinstate
Supplemental General State
Aid (Local Option Budget State
Aid) to what it was prior to
the block grant, SB 7, passed
last year. There are problems
with this legislation: a majority
of schools in the 12th Senate
District (and across the State)
would receive less State aide;
and the block grant that provided stability in funding for
two years would be removed.
SB 512 was passed out of
Committee so the entire Senate
could debate the bill. It was
sent back to committee on a
vote of 30 to 8. I voted Yes to
send the bill back.
After the bill was sent back
to Committee, the Senate Ways
and Means Committee produced S Sub for HB 2655, that
addresses the Courts opinion,
holds harmless all schools, and
provides stability funding by
adhering to the block grant.
With S Sub for HB 2655, each
school district will receive at
least the same amount budgeted in the block grant. The
bill also puts the State Board

The value in saying something nice
What is it they say about
saying something good about
someone? Did you know saying
something good about someone
is a great way to market your
own small business?
For starters, those of us in
small business owe it to ourselves to support each other
first. Shop your local hardware
guy, grocer, specialty store,
auto mechanic, etc., before
making a trip to the mega-plex
merchants. When you do and
when you have a good experience, be vocal about it.
Why?
Because everybody loves
to have someone speak well
of them. Remember how you
used to sort of dig how aunt
Eunice used to make over you,
even though she smelled like

almost everybody checks a

1996: Many protest new property valuation system
Metal detecting project
tackles old school grounds
Are you still looking
through your last weeks paper
for my column? Well, have
you ever had a time when your
Thinker wasnt Thinking?
That is exactly what happened
to me. We went off down to
Texas to spend Easter with our
daughter and granddaughter,
completely forgetting I hadnt
written or sent in my weekly
column.
Have you ever had two projects going at the same time?
Well I have exactly that. My
latest is strictly a very large
area metal detecting adventure
and my other is the little of
everything project Ive been
working at for quite sometime.
Both projects just happen to
be in the same time period 18571858.
Let me share just a little
information about my metal
detecting project.
In 1857, an acre of land was
given to be used as a permanent

with a broad axe. The remainder of the lumber was hauled
down from Lawrence. The
building was about 18 by 22
feet. It had three 12 paneled
windows on each side, and the
door was in the southeast corner. For many years a board
fence enclosed the grounds.
The old foundation was still
visible in 1936.
In 1905 a new school building was built. This old school
building was sold and moved to
a farm, where it was used as a
wash house for some time. In
1922, it was torn down and the
lumber was used in other buildings on the farm.

Neighbors in the vicinity
of a proposed rock quarry in
Jackson Township are rallying in protest to the project,
saying the industrial nature of
the quarry and its proximity
to a pressurized natural gas
line is a threat to safety and to
their properties. Attendees said
about 40 area residents showed
up at an informational meeting. The issue involved not only
neighbors concerns, but also a
spot zoning request within
what is commonly held to be
an area planned for Garnetts
residential growth and the need
for quarry operations to supply
both commercial rock needs
and needs of the Anderson
County Road Department.
Nearly six months after

They say death and taxes are
unavoidable. The other thing
Anderson County appraiser
Gary Stapp and other appraisers across the state of Kansas
cant avoid these days is the
hot seat. More than a month
after the countys new property valuation notices were distributed, a group of Anderson
County landowners held
audience with Stapp and the
Anderson County Commission
last week to discuss the valuation process, taxes and spending habits of local units of government. There may have been
answers, but there appeared to
be little satisfaction. The sticking point with area property
owners it the leap that most
property values have taken
after the beginning of the
states rejuvenated reappraisal process several years ago.
With some properties compared to actual sales figures of
similar ones for the first time
in more than 20 years, many
of the valuations skyrocketed
and have continued to climb as
the local market increasingly
fetched higher prices for residential homeowners.

of Transportation has made
it official. The speed limit on

Four Winds NSDAR honors Sweers with Community Service Award
The Four Winds Chapter of
the National Daughters of the
American Revolution met on
Sat., April 2, 2016 in Garnett,
KS at 1:30. Connie Becker
served as hostess.
Regent
Donna Roberts welcomed
12 guests, 15 members, and 3
prospective members to the
meeting. Members and guests
joined together in the Pledge of
Allegiance and the Americans
Creed.
The meeting was turned
over to Carla Ewert to make the
presentation of the 2016 DAR
Community Service Award
to our member, Iona Sweers.
Iona has been a volunteer in
the community for many years.
She has volunteered countless hours for many groups in
Anderson County. The largest
task that has taken her several
years to accomplish is working
on death and burial records
for 22 cemeteries in Anderson
County. She has compiled maps
for use to help locate a grave.
She has weekly contact with
the Anderson County Records
department, funeral homes,
and local newspapers. Over
the years she has compiled 6
three ring binder notebooks to
help people locate their loved
ones buried in the county. The
books are organized by time
periods. Every year she and
several other volunteers spend
hours at the cemetery over
the Memorial Day weekend.
Iona is a very humble person
and is very deserving of this
award. She was presented
with a NSDAR certificate and
pin. Iona was humbled and
expressed her appreciation.
After a reception, honoring Iona and her family and
friends the meeting resumed.
The opening ritual was led by
Regent Roberts and Chaplin
Agnes Carr.
The President Generals
message was given by Linda
Coffman detailing the special
issue of The American Spirit
Magazine highlighting the
Womens History Month issue.
Linda Carr gave the
National Defense Report on
the only woman to receive
the Medal of Honor, Dr. Mary
Edwards Walker. Walker lived
a very colorful life. She was a
tough and tenacious woman.
She met her greatest challenge
at the outbreak of the Civil
War. She went to Washington
to demand a spot in the Union
Army. Her bid for an acting
assistant surgeon was denied.
She volunteered anyway and
was the first of her kind in the
U.S. Army. She worked on the
Union frontlines for nearly two
years, including the historic
Battle of Chickamuagua. She
was accused of being a spy for
the Union and was captured
and became a prisoner of war
in 1864, for nearly a half a year.
After the war, she still pur-
sued an Army commission.
President Andrew Jackson
signed a bill and awarded her
the Medal of Honor. In 1916,
a high-ranking military board
took the meal of honor from
nearly 1,000 recipients. She
was a groundbreaker and often
wore mens clothing for which
she was arrested for dressing and impersonationating
a male. She was an advocate
for womens rights. Since
her death in 1919, fashion
styles have changed. In 1977,
Walkers Medal was reinstated as the criteria changed to
include actual combat with
the enemy. Now women can
serve alongside of men in combat roles.
The minutes were read and
approved as read. The treasurers report was given.
Among correspondence read
were thank yous from the DAR
schools for Labels for education and Box Tops for education that we have been sending
them.
Minute reports were
given on Indians and Schools
by Alice. The labels for education and box tops have helped
all four DAR approved schools
with money for scholarship
funds, P.E. equipment, and
art supplies. The Crossnore
School in NC provides a safe,
stable, and healing environment for students coming from
a crisis family or foster care
situation. Therapy dogs and
horses are also a part of the
curriculum. Over 10,000 children have been aided by this
school. The Conservation and
Womens Issues reports were
given by Carla. Earth Day was
the topic of the conservation
report. Earth Day was started
in the 1960s by Senator Gaylord
Perry is celebrated worldwide
on April 22. Ideas were given
for what you can do for Earth
Day, such as plant a tree, give
up bottled water, feed the birds,
or repair your leaky faucets.
The Womens issues report
was about awareness for early
detection of colorectal cancer
and how it is the 2nd most
common cancer in both men
and women. Every month one
member will be asked to give
a short biographical sketch
about herself to the group. We
heard about Kim Stapp this
month. Connie reported that
the 2016 American Flag Award
was presented to Gail Bill
and Glendina Young.
Unfinished business taken
care of next by Regent Roberts,
she asked if anyone belongs to
another Lineage Society. She
reminded everyone to hand in
their volunteer hours. We had
a total of 4,305 coupons mailed
to our military family already
in the first quarter and last
year we had a total of 8,089
coupons for the year. The VFW
Auxiliary is partnering with

Patriot letters are due back by
the June 4th meeting unsealed
and stamped with postage. A
list was made available for
members to choose a name of a
current member serving in the
armed forces.
New business taken care of
was the discussion of proposed
by-law changes for the KSDAR
and NSDAR. Everyone who
takes the DAR Spirit Magazine
was asked to tell about features
they enjoy from the magazine.
All members are encouraged
to subscribe to the award winning magazine. The delegates
for the conference met to plan
their travel arrangements to
the conference.
The next meeting will be on
Thursday, May 5 at 1:30 with
Randy Atwater from the John
Brown Museum in Osawatomie
as our guest speaker. Louise
Stites will be the hostess. The
meeting adjourned.
Connie presented the lesson
on Women in the Revolutionary
War. She told about the different ways women played a
role in the war time. First of
all when the men would leave
the home to join in the patriot
cause the women had to keep
the farm or business going, take
care of household chores, teach
the children, and protect the
home from the enemy, Indians,
and wild animals. There were
some women who disguised
themselves as a man and joined
in the fighting. Some were
successful in their efforts and
some were discovered. One
woman even removed a musket ball from herself so she
FIRES…
FROM PAGE 1A
Its a lot drier than what
everybody thinks it is,
Brinkmeyer said about current
conditions.
To illustrate the point,
Brinkmeyer said he recently
watched someone conduct a
controlled burn on 40 acres of
land. Within 5-and-a-half minutes, the fire had spread to the
far end of the property.
If we dont get some rain
pretty soon, were going to be
in real trouble.
The next chance of rain wont
be until Saturday, which has a
20 percent chance of showers
during the day and a 30 percent
chance at night, according to
the National Weather Service
at Topeka. The chance of thunderstorms increases to 40 percent on Sunday.
Even then, it will take a significant amount of rainfall to
make a difference.
Since the first of the year,
just 3.18 inches of rain has fallen at the Garnett Industrial
Airport, which serves as the
local weather monitoring
station. The average rainfall
through March is 5.73 inches, which means the county
is more than 2.5 inches below
normal.
Because of dry conditions
and frequent high winds, bans
on burning have been a frequent occurance. The National
Weather Service issues a Red
Flag Warning against burning
when winds are predicted to
rise above 15 mph. Thats been
quite common this spring.
As a result, many farmers
have been unable to conduct
their annual controlled burning of grasslands and fields,
which helps control weeds and
restores nutrients to the soil.
Prescribed burning is recommended for CRP land, and is
allowed only until April 15.
At least one farmer attended a recent Anderson County
Commission meeting to discuss the frequent burn bans
that have made it difficult for
him to burn. Brinkmeyer said
he often gets phone calls from
farmers who want to burn their
land, and he understands their
frustration.
He reminds them of the dangers of an out-of-control grass
fire, as well as the potential
expense. The person who lights
the fire is responsible for any
damages caused by the fire, as
well as any injuries or deaths
that may result.
Recently, a controlled burn
led to damage of a neighbors
property, and the neighbor has
threated to seek legal action.
Brinkmeyer recalled an incident in Franklin County last
year, where Anderson County
firefighters assisted. A woman
had recently planted several
fruit trees, and a neighbors outof-control grass fire destroyed
the trees. The woman sued for
damages and won, Brinkmeyer
said.
People need to understand
you are responsible for anything that happens when you
strike that match, he said.
Its also important to remember to never leave the scene of a
controlled burn until the fire is
completely out.
Last week, many farmers
took advantage of good conditions Monday, April 4, to
conduct controlled burns. But
when the conditions changed
Tuesday, Brinkmeyer said,
many of those sites flared into
out-of-control grass fires, leading to those 11 fire calls in one
day.
It just takes one little
ember, he said.
He also reminds people they
must contact the Anderson
County
Communications
Center at (785) 448-6826 to
obtain a burn permit before
they burn. The call takes only
a few minutes, and dispatchers
will advise of any burn ban in
place. Dispatchers will ask for
the name and phone number of
the person conducting the burn
and the address. They may also
ask basic details such as how
big the burn area is likely to
cover, the type of burn conducted and how long it is estimated
to take.
Some other guidelines:
Dont burn material that
produces heavy smoke, like
oils and tires.
Dont burn where smoke
would affect traffic or create a
safety hazard. If that happens,
contact the Anderson County
Sheriffs Department for help
with traffic control.
Dont leave a fire unattended. That means staying until
the fire is fully extinguished.
Brinkmeyer said often a passer-by will report an unattended
fire, and crews will respond as
if the fire was not controlled.
Dont burn when winds are
predicted above 15 mph.
wouldnt have to see a doctor
who would discover her secret.
You know of the ride of Paul
Revere but how about the rides
of 16 year old Sybil Ludington
who rounded up 150 militia
men who successfully drove
the British back to their ships.
Or Emily Geiger who was to
take a message to the troops
so she memorized the message
in case she was captured. When
she was captured she managed
to tear up the note and swallow
it. When the British let her go
she delivered the message by
mouth. Betsy Dowdy is credited with saving the entire eastern Carolina coast from invasion because of her midnight
ride to gather up troops.
Other women used their
cooking skills and entertaining
skills to detain the British long
enough for the Patriots to leave
an area and get out of British
site. Women would gather all
the pewter from the town and
melt it to make ammunition.
They would use their petticoats
to make cartridges. Women
would make food for troops as
they marched by or took food
to prisoners of war and to the
battlefields.
Some women would follow
their husbands. They were
known as camp followers.
They did the laundry, sewing,
and cooking for the troops.
They would receive half of the
soldiers portion of food. The
children would get quarter portion of food. Since General
Washington only knew women
with elegant manners- when
the army marched through
Philadelphia he had the camp
followers take a back route so
as not to be seen.
There were women who took
to their pens and wrote newspapers, political satires, and
journals to all help the patriot
cause. Phllis Wheatly, a slave,
wrote a poem about George
Washington. She was freed and
died a few days before the poem
was published to celebrate the
victory by the patriots.
Esther deBerdt led several
women to raise money for the
troops and General Washington
requested they use the money
to buy material and make
shirts for the men. Together
they made twenty two hundred
shirts.
Hannah Arnett burst into
a meeting of men (uninvited)
who were talking about giving
up and returning to the British
side. She called them all cowards and told her husband if
he were to give up the fight,
she would give him up they
decided to keep fighting.
Also a few women used fire
to help. One woman burnt her
house down rather than serve
a meal or house the British.
One burnt the wheat crop so
the British would not harvest it
for food. Martha Bratton heard
the British were going to capture her husbands gunpowder
warehouse, so she set fire to it
instead of let the British take it.
You have probably heard
of the three Mollys — Mary
Ludwig Hays who was Molly
Pitcher who carried water to
the battlefield. Molly Corbin
who saw a gunner shot down,
she ran and took his place at
the canon and finished firing.
She was injured but survived.
Then Molly Stark set up a hospital in her home and never
lost a patient.
Catherine Moore Berry
rode through the country
side and gathered all the
troops that allowed General
Morgans troops to defeat
General Cornwallis and then
they retreated into the hands
of George Washington at
Yorktown. There is no doubt
that without the independent
spirit and strength of these
women, the revolutionary war
might have ended quite differently.

American Revolution is a nonprofit, nonpolitical womens

ENTRANCE…
FROM PAGE 1A
office staff can open the doors.
Once inside the school, however, visitors easily can bypass
the office and continue down
various hallways.
The new plan would require
nearly all visitors to enter
through the south end, which
would be converted so that
any visitors who arrive while
school is in session would be
required to pass through a
reception area to access the
rest of the building.
The change would require
construction of new offices
for the principal and assistant
principal, and a new conference room. Those offices would
be built onto the south side
of the building just west of
the entrance, extending as far
as brick pillar at the current
entrance.
Some classrooms would
be converted to other uses.
Ultimately, the plan would cost
the school one classroom, but
staff could make adjustments
so that loss was not noticed,
Blome and Principal Kenny
Kellstadt said.
A receptionist likely would
be stationed at the north
entrance to take care of anyone
who entered from that direction.
Blome said he did not yet
have any estimates on how
much the project would cost.
