Mountain lions do roam
Kansas, but most reports not
confirmed, or other animals
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GREELEY A school bus driver
who saw a suspicious, cat-like creature running through a field near
Greeley last week stirred speculation
over whether the animal might be a
mountain lion. A local game warden
said the animal most likely was not
a mountain lion… but it could have
been.
Its not out of the realm of possibility. There are cats in Kansas, Josh
DeHoux, Anderson County Natural
Resource Officer with the Kansas
Department of Wildlife and Parks
said. Our department knows they are
in Kansas, but probably in far fewer
numbers than people think.
Its more likely it was another animal. DeHoux said he has been unable
to confirm any such creature in
Anderson County. He has investigat-

mayor; most races last
week not challenged
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Voters in USD 479 ousted
incumbent school board members last week, picking challengers over sitting board
members in two races. Only
incumbent Tadd Goodell survived the April 7 election; he
ran unopposed. A fourth seat on
the board had been vacant, and
voters had a choice between
two people for that position.
In Kincaid, however, the
incumbent mayor easily survived a challenge and voters
picked five city council mem-
ed many reports, but each time he has
been unable to confirm what kind of
animal it was, or found that the suspected animal was something else.
The recent sighting, which had not
yet been reported to DeHoux, came
from a USD 365 school bus driver,
Trish Wills, who posted the incident
on her Facebook page April 10. Wills
did not actually say she saw a mountain lion, but friends who commented
raised the possibility. Wills said she
was driving her bus on 2000 Road near
Neosho Road when she saw an animal
cross the road, headed away from several deer in a nearby field.
It was running, very fast, through
the field, had a long tail and cat ears. If
I had to guess, Id say it was about the
size of a small labrador, Wills wrote
in her post. Later, she posted the animal didnt look like a coyote, but was
probably too small to be a mountain
lion. Others speculated it was a bobcat, but she said it didnt look like
that, either.

A successful
Christmas holiday shopping
season appears to have helped
boost sales tax collections in
Garnett and Anderson County.

previous year. Garnett is run-
nesses are bringing in more
or fewer sales compared to
previous months and years.
Locally, the largest collector
of sales tax typically is new
and used car dealerships like
Beckman Motors, because they
collect sales tax on large purchases like cars and trucks. In
Anderson County, automotive
sales alone make up about 20
percent of overall retail sales
and sales tax collections.
Garnett City Manager Joyce
Martin said previously the
reports also show that people
are continuing to buy locally,
even with a recent decrease in
fuel prices that could entice
them to travel greater distances
for goods and services.
Sales tax reports typically
reflect sales made two months

ECONOMY…
FROM PAGE 1A
February, they were up almost
15 percent.
But after the boost of holiday
shopping, sales tax dropped by
nearly 6 percent. Collections in
March were $20,942, down by 5.8
percent. For the fiscal year so
far, which runs from July 2014
to June 2015, the city has collected $201,070.81 in sales tax. Thats
up 1.3 percent compared to the
previous year.
Anderson County as a whole
had similar results, although
the countys January numbers
werent quite as strong as the
City of Garnett. In January,
Anderson Countys sales tax collections were up 1.4 percent; in
February, collections were up
8.8 percent. And, like the city,
the countys sales tax collections
dipped by 10.2 percent in March.
Because the decrease coincides with a significant drop in
fuel prices, its possible some
shoppers took advantage of low
fuel costs to travel outside the
area for shopping and entertainment. In January, gas prices
dropped to the lowest levels in
six years, with prices under $2
per gallon at times. Prices have
since leveled off at around $2.20
per gallon.
It also could reflect the imminent closing of Alco, a major
retailer that closed in early
February because of bankruptcy
of its parent corporation.
The City of Kincaid is the
only other city in the county
that collects a sales tax. Kincaid
collects 1 cent for every dollar,
or 1 percent. Kincaid collects a
relatively small amount of sales
tax, so numbers can vary greatly from month to month. By the
end of March, however, sales
tax collections for the year had
dropped to $3,473.70, or 4.8 percent lower than the previous
year-to-date figures.
Sales tax collections are
reported by the Kansas
Department of Revenue in
Topeka.

EDITORIAL
Penalizing the poor
Kansas again became a national joke
last week for finding solutions to problems that dont exist.
Sen. Michael ODonnell, R-Wichita,
delivered the latest punchline by pushing
through the mean-spirited House Bill
2258 limiting how people on public assistance spend their money.
It makes sure poor people dont spend
their Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families on steak dinners, going on
cruise ships, getting tattoos or tipping
strippers. It might sound plausible on its
face. Who wants people feasting on luxury while taxpayers pick up the bill?
The real problem is no one really
can point to instances of people using
TANF to go on cruises. Were in Kansas.
Theres no ocean. The law also prevents
people from using their accounts to pay
for psychics, theme parks or swimming
pools. Has this really been a problem?
The laws only practical purpose is to
further humiliate fellow Kansans who,
many through no fault of their own, are
struggling just to survive. Its meant to
codify the stereotype of poor people as
shiftless, lazy cheaters. What we need is
compassion for people who have suffered
through the greatest economic disaster
in generations.
This new law actually hurts those
who need our help and support the most,
and Gov. Sam Brownback should resist
signing this punitive measure.
Sen. Caryn Tyson, R-Parker, managed
to add the most damaging part a limit
of $25 a day on the amount of money people can draw from their TANF accounts.
Studies show people receiving public
aid spend this money on food, housing
and transportation. Most poor people
dont have bank accounts and now must
make multiple trips to ATMs, with fees,

to pay for these essentials. These days,
$25 wont buy a tank of gas. At these
limits, youd have to withdraw the maximum 24 days out of the month to pay
the rent on a two-bedroom apartment in
Hutchinson. All this to protect about $400
a month in the support and $124 in average food stamp assistance that families
get to feed their children.
If this was really about protecting
public funds, lawmakers would look
to control tax breaks for the rich, folks
who can write off steak and lobster dinners to business expenses and get relief
on yachts and vacation homes. These
self-employed job creators no longer
pay state income tax.
But is anyone actually watching to
make sure they create the jobs to help
people get off public assistance? No one
is even suggesting it. Instead, legislators
go after the poor.
Its a law passed by the same,
self-righteous politicians who like to
emphasize their Christian faith. Maybe
they should read their Bibles the part
that says, What you did to the least of
these, you did to me.
Thats no joke.
Topsy-Turvy Language
Im endlessly amazed by the continued
success of Orwellian doublespeak, where
propagandists — uh, excuse me, advocates
— are able to shamelessly turn language
upside down. Employing their rhetorical
sleight-of-hand, the victimizer becomes the
victim. The most egregious example these
days is from those who try to impose their
dogma on the rest of society.
Remember that religion already
gets favored treatment in this country.
Churches and other houses of worship are
not taxed; billions of dollars are lost to the
economy as a result. At the same time, various faiths try to force their version of cul-
The Age of the Anti-Christian Pogrom
We live in the era of the anti-Christian pogrom. The slaughter earlier this
month at Garissa University College in
Kenya that killed nearly 150 people was
the latest example of the bloodlust.
Usually, such mass-casualty attacks
are indiscriminate, but the killers of
the Somali-based al-Shabab terror group
sought to be exacting during their allday assault on the largely Christian university.
A student told The Associated Press,
If you were a Christian, you were shot
on the spot.
One witness described his best friend
begging for his life, pretending to be
a Muslim; when he couldnt recite a
Muslim prayer, he was shot to death.
Another recalls seeing three girls
praying for help: The mistake they
made was to say, Jesus, please save us,
because that is when they were immediately shot.
The Obama administrations reaction
to this atrocity carried out by Islamic
zealots for avowedly religious reasons
was typically shorn of any specific reference to what had happened, or why.
The administration reverted to its core
strength of tightly scripted euphemism.
In his statement, President Barack
Obama said that innocent men and
women were brazenly and brutally massacred. True enough, but he couldnt
bring himself to say who had been shot
by whom. He vowed to stand with the
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Kenyan government and people in their
efforts to bring communities together,
the closest he dared step to the unmistakable religious dimension of the murders.
Secretary of State John Kerry urged
steadfastness in the fight against violent extremism, the administrations
term of art for Muslim extremism.
President Obama cant restrain his
anger over Bibi Netanyahu saying that
Arab voters are turning out in droves
prior to the Israeli election, but if coldblooded killers gun down Christians for
their faith, he turns to careful verbal
gymnastics.
As a matter of sheer intellectual honesty, we should be forthright about the
religious hatred that motivates attacks
on Christians. If the administration worries about playing into the Islamist nar-
rative of the Western crusaders, the
11th century wants its foreign policy
back. In country after country, Christian
communities are embattled and vulnerable, and obviously in no condition to
crusade for anything. They dont want
to take back Jerusalem; they want to
survive.
At Garissa, it was the typical depressing story of insufficient protection from
the government, either out of indifference or incompetence or both. Warnings
of a coming attack on a university had
been ignored. An elite police unit didnt
respond to the attack on the university
until hours after it had begun.
The least we can do is to speak up
forcefully about the plight of threatened
Christians and urge governments to do
more to protect them. It is one of the
scandals of our time that the president of
Egypt has been a more courageous voice
on this than the president of the United
States.
There will be more Garissa-like
attacks to come, demonstrating with
heartbreaking starkness the disparity
in martyrdom between radical Islam
and Christianity. The martyrs of militant Islam strap on suicide vests and
commit hellish acts of mass murder;
Christianitys martyrs die as innocents,
often with a prayer on their lips.

Review.
Brownback gets hard-right, social focus
Its the social policy stuff that has been
Gov. Sam Brownbacks big wins so far in
the 2015 Legislature, with abortion and welfare programs reshaped to his likingand
maybe putting Kansas in the national spotlight under his tenure.
His first-term tax cuts, bigger than he
wanted but he took them anyway, are playing out, but it is the social/government reorganization sphere that is coming to the front
now.
Among major issues: That abortion bill,
which was the first step by any state into
specific procedures being used to stop some
second-trimester abortion procedures.
That bill, signed by the governor at
the Cedar Crest mansion with just five
anti-abortion activists and two large photos of fetuses flanking the breakfast room
table, is sure to kick off a court battle over
womens rights and the state meddling in
medical procedures which were flashily and
politically effectively called dismemberment abortion.
Another social issue: Welfare rights, both
by limiting the time Kansans can receive
welfare assistance, requiring that those
recipients either work or convincingly
apply for work, and by limiting the spending of welfare benefitsthat now-famous no
cruises, tattoos, strip joints, liquor or even
swimming in public pools. Oh, spending
welfare money on pistols is still OK; though
some of us Statehouse regulars wonder how
a gun exclusion might have played out on
the debate floor.
And then there is the gun bill, which
allows non-criminal Kansans to carry concealed weapons without a license, training,
or apparently even a receipt for the firearm.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, April 14, 2015
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
Though those license-less concealed-carry
folk cant take their guns outside of the state.
Even youngsters can carry their concealed
guns in their homes or on their farms.
Lawmakers are still working on bills that
would move the spring local government
elections to the fall of even-numbered years
and figuring out whether those typically
nonpartisan local offices should wear party
affiliation labels. So far, it looks like the local
and school board offices will remain nonpartisan, though were wondering whether
candidates might adopt GOP or Demo as
their middle names for ballot purposes.
There is still no hard agreement on those
union dueswhether they can be withheld
from members paychecks by local units of
government and school districts. The issue
thereit appears that there are enough
votes in the House and Senate to prohibit
the deductionsis whether anti-union lawmakers will be sufficiently embarrassed by
the bills narrow focus to allow it to expand
to other voluntary payroll deductions such
as charities and United Way and such.
And, then theres a bill that essentially
chokes off the civil service in Kansas, making newly created jobs unclassified, which
means a smaller number of job protections
than for classified jobs. Its not specific, but
practically, any state employee who wants
to change jobs or take promotions or who
leaves the state and returns, is going to have
to relinquish those civil service job protections, which moves them to hire at will
and, of course fire at will.
***
So far? Its a hard-right session and thats
about where Brownback wants it. And, it is
worthwhile to remember that most of those
above bills contain considerable organizational provisions, changes in the shape of
state government duties and responsibilities that means they would be difficult to
un-do, should a new governor or more moderate Legislature want to loosen the reins.
With nearly the full four years of his second term to go, thats time enough to create
a whole new governmental culture in the
state.
If thats the goal, and it surely is,
Brownback and the conservative legislature
are getting there. The current state leadership is moving Kansas to its vision of how a
state should operate.
Well see how that works out

NATIONAL COMMENTARY
BOB FRANKEN, King Features Syndicate
tural values on all of us, whether we share
those beliefs or not. We certainly dont need
to look far for the evidence.
The battle against gay marriage and
against long-overdue fair treatment for gays
and the others with alternative sexual preferences continues as part of a bitter war
waged by those who cling to their bigotry.
A generation ago, they spewed their distorted theology against equality for racial
minorities. While significant vestiges of
that prejudice remain, the latest version
of pious hatred shows up in the vitriolic
campaigns against gay marriage and even
acceptance of anyone who shares his or her
love in nontraditional ways.
And yet, these very same ignorant haters
have the audacity to loudly whine that they
are the ones under assault, that there is a
war against religion. What they mean is
that their desire to discriminate runs afoul
of changing mores and even legal prohibitions. In states like Indiana and Arkansas,
their perverted logic is even turned into
legislation.
I mentioned minorities a moment ago
and the fact that prejudice is still a stain on
our nation. Yet whenever anybody dares to
bring up race, to challenge a vitriolic comment, for instance, he or she is immediately
accused by the racist of playing the race
card.
Still another personal favorite has to do
with the gross economic inequity in the
United States. Weve all seen the numbers
about how the great bulk of our nations
riches is controlled by just a few people. The
disparity worsens with each passing year,
choking off opportunity for everyone else.
But dare to challenge these obese cats
about the ways they avoid fulfilling their
responsibilities as citizens by controlling
the politicians who make the laws, or dare
to question their huge campaign contributions, otherwise known as bribes, and you
are dismissed as a troublemaker who is
conducting class warfare.
It doesnt matter that the real class war
is the one waged by the uppermost classes
against everyone else. The super-wealthy
can hire professional wordsmiths to debase
debate with their convoluted semantics.
Most of us have become too disgusted to
pay attention, and they get away with their
subterfuge.
So those who attempt to override our
beliefs or nonbeliefs with their own suddenly paint themselves as the injured
party. Calling out a bigot is treating him
or her unfairly. Taking on those super-rich
who hoard desperately needed wealth is
anti-American, somehow.
Wrong is right. War is peace. Up is down.
Its been more than 30 years since the fictional 1984, but the reality today is that
seeking fairness is successfully denigrated
as unfair. And unfairness prevails.

Colony Fire Dept. History
Recently the history of the
Colony Fire Department was
discussed. A resident recalled
that in the 1930s a Model A
fire truck was used. When we
(Morris Luedkes) moved here
in 1957, a fire truck sat at the
south end in a rather dilapidated fire shed and Beecher
Heinlien was the fireman. He
also served as city superintendent.
In 1983 the new city hall
building was finished and files,
books, etc. was moved from
the old into the new building.
Shortly following that time a
building was built to the south
of the city hall building and it
was used as the city fire barn.
The new fire station built on
Pine Street was built on the
citys property that was donated to the city for a park from
some ladies club and that is
where the Anderson County
Fire Station was built. The
Anderson County Fire Dept.
with funding from a CDBG
(Community
Development
Building Grant) with every dollar received from the grant was
matched in volunteer labor provided by City of Colony firemen
and other residents. Previously
the Anderson County Fire
Dept. used the city building
south of City Hall building
along with the city antique fire
truck which was housed there.
While in the city building the
county used the city building
and records were called the
City Fire Barn. Men on the
City Fire Department were
on the Anderson County Fire
Dept. so that is where the name
began. We would like to know
at what date this was done as
well as any other memories
any resident would like to help
with this history. Phone 620852-3379, write us at 702 South
Pine St., Colony, KS. or bring
information to this address.
We would like the history to be
as complete as possible.
Thank you for any information you have. Mrs. Luedke
Around Town

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
4-14-2015 / Photo Submitted
Above, Greeley students have
been walking and running their
way to healthier lives by participating in two programs this year.
The Wellness Walk Challenge
and The Running Club are the
combined efforts of Mrs. Mary
Cubit, Kindergarten teacher and
Mrs. Jayme Secrest, fifth & sixth
grade teacher. The Wellness
Walk Challenge began on Oct.
31 and ended March 31 with
the support of a grant from Blue
Cross and Blue Shield. Students
walked laps in the gym before
school and during recess while
teachers kept logs of the miles
walked. Awards were presented
to students reaching a variety
of goals. The Running Club
is a volunteer after-school training program started by Jayme
Secrest. Thirty five students train
after school twice a week and
will compete in a mini marathon
sponsored by Garmin, Inc. of
Olathe, KS. The 2.5 mile student
marathon will be held Saturday,
April 18th.

Four Winds DAR chapter learns about familys history
Regent Alice Walker welcomed eleven members to the March 12th, 2015
meeting. The opening ritual was led by
Regent Walker and Chaplin Agnes Carr.
The President Generals message was
delivered by Agnes Carr. She read
about the 125 years of rich history of
DAR and the four founders of the organization.
The National Defense Report was
given by Judy Carr about the Children
of the American Revolution, commonly
known as CAR. It is a Patriotic Lineage
Organization, founded on July 4, 1895 for
boys and girls from birth to age 21 who
can trace an ancestry back to a man or
woman who supported the American
cause during the Revolutionary War.
Because of the wide range of ages, the
CARs activities are many and varied, but all support their motto of For
God and Country. Even pre-schoolers
learn to say the Pledge of Allegiance
at each meeting and how to honor and
care for the Flag. During World War
I and World War II, the CAR was very
supportive of the troops with many different activities including various patriotic drives. They participated in the
marking of an unknown Revolutionary
War soldier. Currently, one activity that
all can do together is their participation each December in Wreaths Across
America, the placing of wreaths on all
veterans graves at designated cemeteries across America. CAR members
are also involved in National and State
Projects such as the Wounded Warriors,
Operation Gratitude, Students Veterans
of America and Wheels for Our Wounded.
The Kansas CAR State Presidents project is collecting can tabs to help veterans
who are students at Emporia State. Four
Winds Chapter has been helping them.
With this honoring and supporting of the
military branches, it is not surprising
that many CAR members have chosen to
pursue careers in the military branches
of the United States. The Daughters of
the American Revolution (DAR), The
Sons of the American Revolution (SAR)
and Sons of the Revolution (SR) are
strong supporters of the Children of the
American Revolution.
The officers reports were given.
An invitation was read to the chapter
from the Sagamore Chapter to come and
celebrate their 50th anniversary on April
18th. The State Chair of Constitution,
Nancy Williams, notified the chapter
that the beautiful scrapbook prepared by
Four Winds had been received.
Minute reports were given. Betty
Penn, American Indian Chair, told
about a tombstone of her friend, Leaford
Bearskin, former chief of the Wyandot
Nation (Tribe) which has the poem
High Flight on it. He and his brother had served as pilots during World
Alice Walker, DAR Schools
War II.
Chairman and Museum Outreach Chair,
reported on DAR supported schools and
the National DAR Museum. She said
that help is available from the museum
if needed to identify certain articles from
the past.
The members received monthly coupons to track and record their volunteer
service hours. Members also turned in
the property agreements of Four Winds
material.
The participation of the chapter in the
Womens Fair on March 14th was discussed. The chapter gave their support
to the genealogy workshop coming up at
the Garnett Library on May 2nd.
The program was given by Regent
Walker on her single school teacher
grandmother who came to Kansas from
Canada and set up a homestead here
on the prairie. She was only 21 years
old in 1887 as she began the homestead.
Alice has the 40 years of letters that her
grandmother, Alice Smith, wrote to her
friend in England. In the letters, Alices
grandmother told of the sod house and
its slim furnishings and of all the other
challenges facing a homesteader on the
prairie. She had to have proof of her
worthiness from two other homesteaders
in order to own the land. She was granted
the homestead. She married and moved
to the territory of Oklahoma and Alice
Walker has the microfilm copies of the
newspaper that her grandfather tells of
the Kansas homestead experiences of
his bride. They had three children and
later moved to New Mexico to homestead
out there. Alice Walkers own mother
remembers and shared her experience of
seeing Carlsbad Caverns with the explorer who discovered it. She was sent
through openings first and then others
followed if she maneuvered through. It
was an inspiring story of a single 21 year
old woman who homesteaded in Graham
county in early western Kansas territory
and moved on to still two other territories.
The next meeting will be April 2 at
1:30 with Agnes and Judy Carr serving as
hostesses. Agnes will lead the topic entitled American Heritage with a show
and tell by members.
Four Winds DAR honors Medal Kellerman to lead
of Honor recipient from Kansas Kansas Freemasons
The Medal of Honor is the
United States of Americas
highest military honor awarded for personal acts of valor
above and beyond the call
of duty. The Chairmen for
Veterans of the Kansas Society,
Daughters of the American
Revolution decided that those
so highly honored military
personnel should never be forgotten. Therefore, they asked
that every recipient who had
a Kansas tie be honored with a
short Memorial Service of some
kind by the Kansas chapters.
A total of 3,493 Medal of Honor
have been given with almost
half for actions during the Civil
War.
Since neither Anderson
nor Linn Counties had had a
Medal of Honor recipient, Four
Winds Chapter was asked to
have a memorial service for a
Coffey County man, Lt. Colonel
Arthur Medworth Ferguson.
Which they did at their April
meeting, April 2, 2015.
As a First Lt. in the 36th
Infantry of U.S. Volunteers,
Arthur Ferguson was in
Luzon, Philippine Islands on
September 28, 1899 and as the
Medal of Honor Citation states
Charged alone a body of the
enemy and captured a captain.
That was all the information
that was given.
Ferguson had also received
the next highest award,
the Distinguished Service
Cross citation for service as
a Corporal in the U.S. Army
Co E, 20th Kansas Volunteer
Infantry for action on April
26, 1899. That Citation reads
The Distinguished Service
Cross is presented to Arthur M.
Ferguson, Corporal, U.S. Army
for extraordinary heroism in
action at Calumpit, Philippine
Islands, April 26, 1899, against
an armed enemy. At the imminent risk of his life Corporal
Ferguson voluntarily crawled
through a network of iron
beams underneath a bridge
and , inch by inch, worked his
way hand over hand across the
bridge until he was underneath
an insurgents outpost, obtaining a complete description of
the condition of the bridge.
Col. Ferguson was born
Dec.11, 1877 in Coffey County,
KS, the son of Captain R.W.
Ferguson and his wife Elizabeth
Medworth. He enlisted in 1898
at Burlington, in the Kansas
Volunteer Infantry.
Besides serving in the
Philippines, Colonel Ferguson
also served in the Mexican
Border Campaign and World
War I. When the war broke
out in Europe, Ferguson was
assigned to Fort Riley where
he became an instructor at the
first officers training camp. He
then became Chief Instructor
at the second camp at Fort
Snelling. He was then assigned
to the War Department as an
assistant adjutant general of the
U.S. Army in charge of enlisted
men. He received praise from
Secretary Newton D. Baker and
General Pershing. During the
last five years of his service, he
served as the Secretary for the
General Service schools, Fort
Leavenworth.
He married Laura Magill
who died in 1913. He later
married Sarah Maddocks.
Apparently, he had no children.
Colonel Ferguson died
February 20, 1923 at Fort
Leavenworth from sudden
complications of surgery related to the removal of a hernia.
He was buried in Arlington
Cemetery next to both of his
wives. He was survived by
his widow who died in 1973,
by brothers and sisters and his
elderly parents (who later were
buried at Graceland Cemetery
at Burlington).
It was an honor for Four
Winds NSDAR Chapter to be
asked to honor Col. Arthur M.
Ferguson as we need to remember all the people who through
the years have worked so hard
and given so much of themselves for our country.

Daren
Kellerman,
a
Garnett native and 14 year
Allen County law enforcement veteran and former Chief of
Police of La
Harpe, was
installed as
the head of
the Kansas
Freemasons
Kellerman
at a recent
ceremony in
Topeka.
Kellerman, a 1990 graduate
of Garnett High School joined
the masonic fraternity in
1995. Kellerman progressed
through various officer positions in Garnetts Delphian
Lodge No. 44, and has continuously served in various
state leadership roles since
2007. In 2011, he helped charter a lodge exclusively for
members of law enforcement
across Kansas. While giving credit to the entire membership of Delphian Lodge,
he specifically named Jim
Bailey, Bob Meliza, Burke
Rogers, and Bill Gifford as
being very influential to him
in life and in freemasonry.
Kellerman even called upon
Gifford to deliver the masonic working tools and prepare
the family Bible upon which
he took the Grand Masters
obligation.
Apart from his masonic
commitments, Kellerman is
also a member of several law
enforcement organizations
including the Kansas Sheriffs
Association, the Kansas Peace
Officers Association, and the
Fraternal Order of Police.
Kellerman, the 145th
Grand Master (similar to the
president of other organizations) of Kansas will serve
a term lasting one year. He
notes that Freemasonry is the
oldest fraternal organization
in the world and that there
are probably close to 5 million Freemasons around the
world, with about 2 million
in North America, and over
200 masonic lodges in Kansas.
In Kansas, the first masonic lodges pre-date statehood.
Kellerman said one of the
highlights of the upcoming
year will be presiding over
the 150 year re-dedication ceremony of the lodge in Garnett
which will take place October
17, 2015. For that ceremony,
he plans to use a special gavel
that was made out of the wood
from Garnett native Arthur
Cappers home.
Kellerman and his wife,
Jennifer, live in Ottawa with
their two children.

How to use other
peoples knowledge
Okay, so treat me like my
kids do. Dont listen to me.
After all, you have numerous
opportunities every day to get
business tips from other people, lots of them right in your
own industry. Theyre free,
and theyre begging you to take
advantage of them.
Who are these knowers of
knowledgeable nuggets?
Sales people.
Sometimes were so anxious
to avoid or get rid of sales people that we forget theyve been
trained not just in the art of selling but also in the ins and outs
of their products. Sometimes
theyve been in their industry
for decades, and when youre in
a particular pinch with a product or problem you really need
to know what they know.
So Ive developed a revolutionary approach to handling
sales people. I talk to them.
Sometimes it may be only for
a few seconds, and when youre
focused on your needs you find
out pretty quickly whether the
sales person youre talking to is
knowledgeable or just some kid
working a phone bank in Shri
Lanka.
If you identify a dud dont
be rude, just let your wants,
needs and goals determine how
much time you invest in listening to a sales pitch.
And thats the key really
your ability to sell your product
and to become inspired with
your own new ideas depends a
lot on the information you can
find. If a conversation fits with
the knowledge you need, you
should indulge it.
Im interested in developing
smart phone applications, and
more than a year ago I chatted
with a lady who sold a template
program I was interested in. It
was extremely expensive, and
HOW TO SELL STUFF

Review Publisher
through additional research
I discovered there are lots of
guys you can hire to write custom apps which are licensed to
you instead of the vendor you
buy through.
I may still opt not to do that
and instead go with her company. If I hadnt listened to her,
or if I hadnt pursued the topic
beyond our conversations, Id
never have discovered better
options. I might have bought
her product and regretted it
later.
Sure, I used her information to help me look for better options and I found them.
It may sound mercenary, but
thats business.
So when youre talking to a
sales rep, keep yourself focused
on your own operation, your
own goals, your own priorities. Always look for additional
information outside that conversation, but use it for what
its worth.
Your success in sales and
in business depends on your
knowledge, so embrace the
knowledge sales people are itching to provide for you.

that is contradictory to Gods
moral values.
This gets right at the heart
of the matter. The idea that
there is a God to whom men
and women are accountable
has an impact when believed
on the lives and lifestyles of
those who believe. This is what
James the brother of Jesus is
referring to in James 3:13-16
when he says, Who is wise and
understanding among you? Let
him show it by his good life, by
deeds done in the humility that
comes from wisdom. But if you
harbor bitter envy and selfish
ambition in your hearts, do not
boast about it or deny the truth.

DEVOTIONAL
By David Bilderback
Such wisdom does not come
down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual of the devil. For
where you have envy and selfish ambition there you find disorder and every evil practice.
The times, past, present and
future have not, are not and
will not temper Gods moral
laws. I have found nowhere in
the Bible any statement that
would lead me to believe God
will change with the times.
God cannot change otherwise he would not be perfect.
This is why what we know of
God can be known with certainty. What has changed with
the times is mans perception
of God. We dont see God in
a vertical relationship but in
a horizontal one. In a vertical relationship we make ourselves accountable to God. In a
horizontal relationship we see
ourselves equal to God. We
rationalize our wants, behaviors and desires based on the
illogical perception that God
thinks, acts and does things
like we do. In the vertical relationship God reveals himself by
revelation. On the horizontal
plane God cannot reveal himself to us and we are left with
our own perception of God.
God is the creator and sustainer of the universe and has
provided humankind with a
revelation of himself through
the natural world and through
his Son Jesus Christ. If our idea
of God is any different than this
we will suffer the consequences of that idea. Whether we
believe it or not we are accountable to God.

1995: Lickteig publishes cemetery book
April 12, 2005
Union Pacific Railroad says it
wont allow a new railroad spur
at East Kansas Agri-Energys $47
million ethanol production plant
in Garnett unless city commissioners agree to close railroad
crossings as proposed by railroad
and state highway officials last
year. The issue appears to emperil Anderson Countys single largest industrial investment since
the railroad itself was constructed some 150 years ago.

Some people find graveyards
a little unsettling. Maybe that
comes from watching too many
cheap horror movies. Maybe
that comes from our innate
fear of death. But Dorothy
Kipper-Lickteig, president of
the Anderson County Historical
Society, sees cemeteries as peaceful areas that are full of history. Lickteig started compiling
the 18,358 names and stories on
county cemeteries last summer.
With help from other members
of the historical society, the job
was completed Jan. 2. Lickteig
has also compiled several other

historical books about Anderson

a tendency to become damaged
over time and can in time become
unreadable. The book will be a
helpful catalogue for families

April 15, 1985
A chapter in the human comedy was played out in Anderson
County April 10. It began near
Colony when a motorist saw a
man lying beside the highway.
He reported a body lying beside
the road to Dr. T.O. Osbornes
office. Dr. Osborne went to the
spot where the body had been
seen to see if he could be of any
assistance. He took the man to
his office to be certain he wasnt
ill. Things became a little confused. Someone called the sheriffs office and a deputy went to
investigate, and an ambulance
was dispatched. Eventually, the
sheriff explained the man was a
hitchhiker who became tired of
standing and waiting for a ride
on the outskirts of town. The
hiker said he only laid down to
get a little rest. That was all.
April 14, 1915
Th other day, Mrs. Frank
Hunsinger, who was housecleaning, removed an old picture from
a frame and found, back of the
picture, the charter of the old
Garnett Good templars lodge.
The lodge was chartered Jan. 1,
1865 (the same year the Garnett
Plaindealer was established) and
its number was 47. Until Mrs.
Hunsinger took the picture out of
the frame, she did not know that
she possessed such a relic. She
values it very highly.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 4-14-2015 / Photo Submitted
This medallion likley came from an oratorical contest in July 1896. Miss Hattie Talley won the
contest; Henry Roeckers is excavating the Talley Ranch.
Medallion likely tied to local girl
Found: This 119 year old
solid Bronze medallion plays
a significant role in the history of Anderson County.
Many of you already know
that since the first of this
year, I have been conducting metal detector surveys
on nice days for the landowners of the Talley Ranch,
Jesse James Hideout and also
known as Robbers Roost.
It was during my survey
on March 25 that I dug up
this precious artifact. It
was while I was doing my
research of the Talley Ranch,
that I discovered its connection with this medallion.
DIGGING UP THE PAST
Henry Roeckers
Call (785) 448-6244 for
local archeology information.
In the 1896 Republican
Plaindealer
newspaper
entry of July 3, it states, at
the Oratorical Contest Miss
Hattie Talley of Garnett was
awarded first place, May
Gochenour of Westphalia,
second and Miss Macy
Hitchcock of Central City,
third.
If you look closely again at
the front view picture of this
medallion, youll note the two
masks, the pulled drapery or
curtain and the column in the
background all are Oratorical
and Theatrical Symbols.
How long it was truly
lost, we will never know? I
do know I recovered it near
a large tree, at a depth of
approximately 8 inches.
Once again, how thrilled I
am to be an amateur archaeologist.

Bulldogs seek first
winning season ever
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The ACHS baseball team is pushing in 2015 to
break a bad streak in the history of the ACHS program dating back to its inception in 2002,
AC has never posted a winning
season. Last year, AC was 4-15.
The kids are working very
hard to achieve the first winning season in program history, said Brad Huber, who
takes the reins this year as head
coach after three years on the
AC coaching staff.
But Hubers goals dont end
there. He wants AC to be the
quintessential Cinderella Story.
We have a tough regional,
but we are looking to put two
good games together and earn a
trip to state, he said.
Huber thinks the team will
pitch well junior Mason Skiles
returns as the Bulldogs go-to
man on the mound, with help
this year from seniors Vincent
Trujillo, sophomore Kyle Lamb
and Landon Thacker, a transfer
from Burlington who will double between pitcher and third
base. Junior Austin Smith,
Huber said, will also give AC a
lot of quality innings from the
mound.
The teams defense can
be good at times but Huber
said his players have to learn
to focus better for the entire
length of their games.
AC

Bulldog girls see early
season success
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT With a handful
of early-season wins already
under their belt, the AC Bulldog
softball team is looking competitive at the start of their schedule with their sights set on the
4A regional AC will host on
May 18.
We have several returners
along with a couple of new faces
and we have some great potential, said head coach Marty
Alley. We need a little time to
gel as a unity, but we should
execute early and have some
fun doing it.
Six starters return to the AC
lineup from the 2014 squad that
went 4-17.
Of the losses last year eight
of them were against teams that
qualified for a state tournament
at the 3A or 4A level, Alley
said. Alley said he expects to
see his Bulldogs move closer to
those teams as they return with
another year of maturity and
skill development.
Returning seniors Samantha
McCullough and Bobbi Jo
Rockers will both spend time
in catchers gear this year. But
while one is working behind
the plate, Alley said he has
the luxury of playing them at
the positions they played last
year McCullough at short stop
and Rockers in the outfield.
McCullough will bat 3rd or 4th
in the lineup and Alley said her
leadership will be paramount
for the Bulldogs. Rockers will
catch the second half of the doublheaders, but Alley said hell
rely on her speed as a 2-hole hitter or from the 6th spot as part
of the strategy to start a scoring
rally in second innings.
Watch
for
sophomore
Miranda Akes at the plate as
well, with a swinging attitude
and quickly developing her
defensive skills as well, Alley
said.
ACs infield should be the
strongest its been in several seasons, with sophomores
Alexey Lickteig and Katie
Lybarger bringing plenty of
off-season experience to the
2015 season. Lickteig had a
solid glove at third last year
and notched a homer. Varsity
newcomer Lybarger will put
her height to work at first base,
and with one of the most fundamentally sound swings on the
team will be expected to be part
of the AC scoring engine.
Junior Mackenzie Lutz can
play either first or third and
gets credit from Alley for her
stalwart work ethic. Junior
Paige Scheckel returns to
secure the middle of the infield
at second base, and freshman
Adri Pedrow will boost the
infield performance as well.
The outfield lineup includes
junior Kinlee Jones, Rockers
when not behind the plate,
Adri Pedrow when Rockers
plays catcher, and sophomore
Katelyn Alley.
On the pitchers mound Alley
expects freshman Gabby Spring
to get the most starts this year
with a collection of pitches under development. Other
options included sophomores
Sydney Holloran and Michaela
Laiter, who were both forced
into the varsity lineup in 2014
due to injuries.
They know the level of competition needed to play at the
varsity level, Alley said. Both
have gotten stronger over the
past year and could fill a pitching role if needed.
Sophomores
Samantha
Nickell, Adrian Gwin and
senior Echo Higginbotham
round out the varsity roster.
Junior varsity, under assistant coach Joy Dyke, includes
sophomores Katelyn Alley,
Laiter, Kirsten Freeman,
Kelcy Coffelt, Gwin, Holloran,
Jennifer Hurlock and Abbey
Barnes, as well as freshmenWaltham Farren, Megan Smith,
McKenzie Evans and Shylie
Scheckel.
Alley said he looks for
Wellsville to lead the Pioneer
League again this year and
likely to win their way to the
3A state tournament. Santa
Fe Trail will be solid, he said.
Central Heights starts the year
with a new coach and a reliable,
veteran pitcher, and could distinguish itself again in 2015.

Vikes look to do
little things right
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND Staying health
and playing good small ball
will be the keys to the Central
Heights season this year, says
13 year-head coach Jason
Brown.
We have to do the little
things right, Brown said.
We have to play solid defense
because we do not have any
shut down pitchers who can
do it on their own. Were not
a power hitting team. We had
several injuries that plagued us
last year so we hope to keep
everyone healthy.
The Vikings roughed their
way through a 5-15 season last
year, losing Jordan Horstick,
Coby Robertson and Tristan
Davis to graduation in 2014.
The team returns seven lettermen from last year including senior center fielder Will
Thoele, senior short stop and
pitcher Chase Brown, senior
third baseman and pitcher

junior first baseman Jacob
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND Central Heights
softball team returns to the 2015
season with a new head coach,
a host of new players and with
new games on the schedule.
But they also return a sizeable chunk of lettermen from
last year that, while young,
gained some solid experience
from the 2014 season that saw
them end up at 9-12 and 4-6 in
the Pioneer League.
Im not sure we had any
highlight from last year other
than the girls finished stronger than they started, said Lea
Stegner, who moved up from
JV coach last year to the head
spot in 2015. This year we have
a few new teams we have not
played in the past, so Im not
sure how the competitions
going to be.
We are just planning on
competing with who ever we
play, she said.

Pryor, junior second baseman
Cade Masingale and junior outfielder Cade Hibdon.
Senior Eli Davis joins the
squad this year as well with
hopes of making a solid contribution, along with junior Jason
Clissold.
Brown said 2014 4A State
Champion Wellsville will likely lead the division again this
year, and the Vikings remaining schedule will be tough as
well.
Still, Brown never thinks
small and said the teams goals
will be to win the Pioneer
League, win regionals, make
it to state, and make some
noise.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, April 14, 2015
Crest track rebuilds
COLONY First-year Crest
track coach Alan Newton has
half again as many athletes
out for the sport as the team
had last year, and hopes the
renewed interest will result in
topping his goal to send three
Lancers to the 1A State Track
Meet this year.
Were rebuilding the track
program at Crest from scratch,
Newton said. Were 50 percent
larger than we were last year.
Crest should be competitive
this year.
In 2014 Rene Rodriguez
earned a 4th place 1A State
medal in the 100 meter and
picked up 7th in the 200. Newton
expects him to peak this season
7B
SPORTS
in time to boost his times in
those events.
Newton said hes also
expecting the javelin-throwing
brother-sister duo of Evan and
Laurel Godderz to make a solid
showing this year, with a good
possibility of making the state
meet as well.
Also supporting the team
in other events will be Katie
Brewer, Krystal Cooper, Taryn
Covey, Kaden Strickler, Tavyn
Springston, Kyle Riblett, Kadyn
Utley, Austin Louk, Caleb

BIG CATS…
FROM PAGE 1A
DeHoux said most reports
of mountain lions he investigates tend to be dogs, coyotes or
domestic cats. He said he also
has investigated reports that
likely were legitimate, such as
a report from a couple of longtime hunters who saw one from
as little as 50 feet away, but
without a photograph or other
hard evidence he could not substantiate their claim.
I put on a lot of miles in
the outdoors. Since 2000 when
I started with this department,
Ive never seen one, DeHoux
said.
But that doesnt mean
they arent out there, he said.
Mountain lions, also called
cougars and pumas, have been
confirmed in other Kansas
counties. Last year, a hunters
camera captured an image of
a mountain lion in Labette
County. The KDWP said it was
the 10th mountain lion sighting
confirmed in Kansas since 2007.
Hunters have cameras all
over the place. There are probably a million cameras out
there, but we only get maybe
one or two pictures (of the cats)
a year, he said.
Historically, its not surprising that mountain lions roam
the Kansas prairie, DeHoux
said. A couple hundred years
ago, mountain lions, elk and
even grizzly and black bears
were common in the area. But
those animals dont like people,
and when people moved in, they
moved out.
Its also not surprising that
people report mountain lion
sightings more often in the
spring, DeHoux said. Thats
because animals tend to have
babies in the spring. If a mother
mountain lion has babies, she
will push away last years litter. That means juvenile males
must go off and find new hunting ground. A mountain lions
range can vary as much as 100
miles, DeHoux said. Because
mountain lions have been confirmed in Kansas and Missouri
counties within that range, its
entirely possible that mountain lions could have traveled
through Anderson County, he
said.
If a mountain lion does wander through the area, its likely
not much of a threat. The cats
avoid people as much as possible, he said, and will stay away
from places where people can
be found.
They also tend to eat smaller
animals, because coyotes outnumber them and tend to win
the competition for food sources. One young mountain lion
cant compete with thousands
of coyotes, he said.
DeHoux said whenever he
investigates reports of livestock
deaths, another animal is found
to be responsible.
If you suspect a mountain
lion is roaming around your
area, there are a few indicators to look for, DeHoux said.
Primarily, look for pawprints.
A mountain lion will have a
very large pawprint, about as
large as a salad plate and a little
larger than an entire human
hand with the fingers spread
out. Perhaps the best indicator
if the animal is a mountain lion
or a dog will be whether there
are claw marks. Like domestic
cats, a mountain lion retracts
its claws when it walks or runs.
If the pawprint has claws, its
probably a dog or coyote or
something else.
Mountain lions also will
store food in caches, like under
a mound of brush, to help them
survive the winter. A cache of
food, like a deer hidden under a
pile of brush, also is a sign that
a mountain lion has been roaming the area.
If you suspect a mountain
lion in the area, do not approach
it, DeHoux said. Instead, contact DeHoux at (620) 432-4869 or
Matt Peek, KDWPT furbearer
biologist, at (620) 342-0658.
INSURANCE…
FROM PAGE 1A
overcome the savings offered
by CBIZ, Teel said.
Teel said the board members
wanted to keep the service with
a local company, and Schulte
is the only local insurance
provider that has ever bid for
the boards business. School
insurance must cover a variety of needs, from buildings to
equipment and computers to
cars and busses. Schultes policies are underwritten by EMC
Insurance.
Were very disappointed,
Dan Schulte said after the decision. We feel even with the
dollar savings, they are making
a mistake as far as coverage
provided by the carrier EMC.
EMC is a leader in the nation
in writing policies for school
districts.
Schulte said EMC offered
special credits for the district
because of its longtime relationship and Schulte Agency cut
their commission significantly
when it submitted the reduced
proposal, but it wasnt enough
to entice the board to keep the
policy.
Teel couldnt remember
exact dates, but said at one
point the school board abandoned Schulte Agency in favor
of a Topeka company that
offered lower insurance rates.
The next year, Schulte offered
a competitive bid and the board
went back to the local agency.
Teel said he hopes the same is
true when the board considers
its insurance policies next year.
If the rates are comparable, we dont have any problem
going back to Schulte. The service has been great, he said.
Uncertainty surrounding the
state school financing formula has led most Kansas school
districts to look at a variety of
options to trim their budgets.
USD 365 Superintendent Don
Blome said previously the district has enough money in its
reserves to weather a financial
storm for the next year or two,
1×3
AD
but he has suggested possible
cost-saving options like shifting all home football games to
the ACJSHS campus, as well
as expected savings through
employee retirements and attrition.
