City manager fends off forced retirement
Commissioners cite policy
refuted as age discrimination,
resignation request rescinded
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Garnett City Manager
Joyce Martin said she wants to be able
to hold her head high when she retires
from the city where shes worked
nearly 50 years. Thats not what
almost happened last week, when
an attempt by city commissioners to
force Martins retirement backfired.
Garnett commissioners last week
cited a personnel policy that says an
employee who reaches 70 years of age
must retire the first day of the month
after his or her 70th birthday. Martin
turned 70 earlier this month; under
the policy, that would have forced her
to retire on or before Thursday, Sept.
1.
Commissioners told Martin during
an executive session at the end of
their meeting Tuesday, Aug. 23, they
Im proud of
everything Ive
accomplished and
the hours I put
in. I dont want to
limp out of here
like a dog.
Joyce Martin
Martin
expected her to
follow the policy and requested her
resignation, Martin said last week.
No official action was taken after the
executive session.
I was devastated, said Martin,
who has worked for the City of Garnett
since 1967 and has served as city manager since 2007. I feel like they blindsided me. I wasnt expecting this at
all. I feel like I have given everything
I have to the city and I wish it had not
happened the way it did. I was given
eight days to clean out my office and
wrap up stuff.
The next morning, on Wednesday,
Martin found a different city policy
that said the city manager, who serves
at the pleasure of the city commission,
is exempt from the employee personnel policy. She also argued the citys
policy to force retirement at age 70 is
age discrimination and violates federal laws, even though under Martins
watch the policy has been used to
encourage older city workers to retire.
After another meeting in secret
executive session Thursday evening,
city commissioners said they plan to

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
HARRIS – Severe thunderstorms and winds
in excess of 70 mph damaged structures and
knocked down large trees, limbs and power
poles near Harris Wednesday, Aug. 24.
No injuries were reported as a result of the
storms and damage.
K-31 was closed for several hours
Wednesday evening because of broken power
poles and wires on the roadway. The damage
cut power to several homes in the area, and
utility crews worked through the night and
into Thursday morning to repair the poles
and restore power, according to Anderson
County Emergency Management Director JD
Mersman.
Most of the damage was contained to a
roughly 10-square-mile area around 2300
Road and K-31.
The Harris Fire Department, Garnett
Fire Department, Anderson County Sheriffs
Office, Anderson County Emergency
Management, Anderson County Road
Department, Kansas Highway Patrol, and
Kansas Department of Transportation all
were involved in the response.
Other parts of the county saw less impact
from the storm, which dropped just a halfinch of rain at the Garnett Industrial Airport.
The airport is the official weather monitoring
location for Anderson County.
August has been a hot, humid, and unusually wet month with frequent thunderstorms
and occasional downpours. The total rainfall
so far this month is a whopping 7.24 inches,
significantly more than the average rainfall
of 4.02 inches in August. This month also folSEE STORMS ON PAGE 6A
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Calling it One Extraordinary
Week, organizers of last months Garnett
Area Paint Project (GAPP) say the camp
and mission project contributed as much
as $200,000 worth of economic impact to
Anderson County.
Scott Rogers and Chris Goetz, primary
organizers of GAPP, presented reports on
the project to Anderson County and City of
Garnett commissions recently. The project
was organized with Group Workcamps, a
Loveland, Colo.-based Christian mission program that offers a variety of camps and mission projects throughout the world. This was
the second such project in Anderson County
in the three years. The majority of the projects involved painting the exterior of homes;
others included replacing steps, replacing or
building porches and wheelchair ramps, and
other projects.
GAPP brought 250 campers, volunteers
and staff to Anderson County July 17-23 from
10 states and 14 youth groups. They completed 29 projects, including 19 in Garnett, two
in Colony, one in Kincaid, four at Westphalia
and three at Greeley. More than $19,000
worth of material was purchased from local
businesses.
The total number of volunteer hours was
estimated at more than 6,570, with an economic impact between $180,000 and $200,000
in volunteer hours, value of material and
increased property values.
In addition to the home improvement
work, campers also collected school supplies to donate to area education centers.
They collected a total of 4,426 school supply items, including 14 lunch boxes and
55 backpacks. The items were donated to
elementary schools in USD 365 and 479, St.

Road work wraps up in cities, county
Bridge opens north of
Garnett; lake road work
also nearly complete
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – As the hot summer months wind to a close, so
do various road improvement
projects around the county and
cities.
The work has brought
smooth asphalt to streets
around the City of Garnett,
including new asphalt on a
stretch of the lake road near the
Garnett Country Club entrance
and a new culvert under the
bridge there.
The City of Colony also completed some road work, with a
new chip-and-seal coating on
city streets.
Chip-and-seal also was added
to a country road leading to the
Cedar Valley Reservoir as part
of a project funded jointly by
Anderson County and the City
of Garnett.
Last week, a new bridge over
the Pottawatomie Creek about
three miles north of Garnett
on U.S. 59. opened to traffic,
although construction remains
in the area. The year-long project cost about $5.2 million and
replaced a 58-year-old bridge
parallel to the new bridge.
Although the new bridge is
now open, the current route
for traffic remains shifted west
as crews complete a new east
shoulder and remove the old
roadway and bridge, according
to Donna Schmit, a construction engineer with the Kansas
Department of Transportation
in Garnett. The old bridge
should begin to come down
this week, weather permitting.
Traffic delays should not be
any more significant than they
have been throughout the project, Schmit said. The full project is expected to be completed
in mid-October.
The new bridge was built
by B & B Bridge company LLC
of St. Paul, Kan., and was part

Rogers said.
The camp took place during
high temperatures, with the
heat index reaching 105 to
110 degrees throughout the
week. The heat caused several
campers to make trips to the
emergency room at Anderson
County Hospital. A nurse visited campers at their temporary base at Anderson County
High School on Thursday of
the camp to take vital statistics of campers to ensure they
were doing OK after working
outside in the heat. Local businesses donated water bottles
and popsicles, and the Garnett
Swimming Pool was opened to
the campers one afternoon.
Because of the heat and the
smaller camp size, some of the
projects were left unfinished
when the camp ended. Rogers
said he is working with local
churches to develop a plan to
complete those projects.

JANUARY 31, 1962-AUGUST 23, 2016
Head Start, and Little Peoples
Learning Center in Garnett.
The camp was smaller than
a similar event in 2013, which
some participants said they
liked because it was more
intimate and better allowed
them to get to know their fellow campers and people in
the community. Rogers said
the Garnett camp is unique
because so many people in
the community are able to get
involved and interact with the
campers. Many of the work
camps take place on reservations or at housing projects
with limited exposure to people outside the project.
Local churches and youth
groups were encouraged to get
involved, and some have since
said they plan to take part in
the work camp projects and
travel to other communities,

change the citys policy regarding forced retirement at age 70,
and also will look at the citys
policy that makes the city manager exempt from following the
same rules as city employees.
They withdrew the request for
Martins retirement, Martin
said.
Garnett Mayor Greg Gwin
said he and commissioners
simply were trying to follow
the city policy. He didnt want
to discuss details of conversations that took place in executive session. The Kansas
Open Meetings Act allows governments to conduct closed,
executive sessions to discuss
sensitive matters like personnel, real estate deals and legal
issues, but the law does not
prohibit participants from
revealing details about the discussion.
We felt like we had limited options, Gwin said. We
were trying to do what we
thought was right and we were
slammed against a wall regarding the timetable. It came to
our attention really late.
Because Martin turned 70
in early August and because
Gwin was absent for an Aug.
9 meeting, the Aug. 23 meeting
was the first opportunity after
Martins birthday to discuss the
policy, Gwin said. He and other
commissioners did not know
the city manager was exempt
from the employee personnel
policy until Martin brought it
to his attention Wednesday, he
said. He said the matter should
have been discussed in a more
timely manner.
Gwin also said he knew some
city employees had retired
because of the age policy, but
didnt know if the policy had
been strictly or consistently
enforced.
Martin said she didnt like
to use the term forced out,
but said some older employees were told of the policy and
encouraged to retire when
they reached age 70. No one has
sued the city for age discrimination because of the policy.
Martin said she and commissioners previously discussed
her potential retirement, and
she had wanted to complete the
2017 budget and various major
city projects like ongoing infrastructure improvements before
she retired. She also wanted to
stay through the interview process for the next city manager, and help with that persons
transition.
Its not fair to our citizens
to throw someone out of office
and bring someone in when
theyre not prepared and dont
know whats going on, she
said.
She had expected her plans
to retire and oversee the transition to take place at least
through the end of this year

She became city clerk in 1978,
and then city manager in 2007.
She is a lifelong resident of the
city.
Martin said she appreciated
the support of friends and family as rumors about last weeks
meeting spread. She said she
hoped to retire on her own
timetable.
I want to hold my head high.
Im proud of everything Ive
accomplished and the hours I
put in, she said. I dont want
to limp out of here like a dog.

they intend to move forward

will show that.
Martin said she was hurt
by the commissions action last
week but hoped it was simply
the result of a mistake in interpreting the citys policies. If
she had remembered she was
exempt from the employee personnel policy, she could have
shut down the discussion early
into Tuesdays executive session, she said.

Kobach efforts protect us
from 4 year-old drug dealers
Liberal newspaper editors, Democrats and special interests in Kansas and nationwide love to
roast Kansas Secretary of State Kris Kobach for
his efforts in trying to ensure legal voting rolls in
Kansas. Maybe it takes some first-hand experience
with criminal illegals like having your 4 year-old
daughters social security number turn up in the
possession of illegals in a Lincoln, Neb., meth bust,
to bring the real threat home to you.
I get it, because it happened to me.
So Im sitting at my desk at work one day in 2007
when my wife calls. Shed gotten a weird phone call
at home; some guy claimed to be with the U.S. Drug
Enforcement Agency and wanted to know if we had
any domestic workers in our house. Some kind of
scam, she thought, so she told the guy she was our
babysitter (a ploy she often used on telemarketers
when we had a land line phone), and that Mr. and
Mrs. Hicks were both at work.
It couldnt have been any more than 10 minutes after I got off the phone with her that the call
from the same guy came to my office. Did I have a
daughter named Carly Ann Hicks? Did we have any
domestic workers in our house? I still wasnt sure
he was legit and I told him I wanted the name of his
section chief to confirm him and his story, but the
more he talked the more the bizarre tale became
believable.
Keep in mind, my daughter was four years old at
the time, but her social security number had turned
up in the possession of a 23 year-old illegal alien
found at a residence in Lincoln, Neb., where local
cops and DEA agents had busted a meth lab two
days prior.
Yep. My four year-old was Walter White from
Breaking Bad.
The suspects arrested had three things in common all were Hispanic, all were illegal, and all had
legitimate jobs with employers paying withholding
to SSNs that belonged to somebody else.
Its an industry unto itself, the agent told me.
Kids SSNs were favorite targets, because theyd
likely be alive for decades before their death notice
cancelled the number. Those numbers are mined
by thieves in various places who have access to them
health care offices, school offices, life insurance or
financial service companies, banks and of course
domestic workers in peoples homes. Indeed, Carlys
aunt had taken her to a Kansas City area hospital
some months prior for treatment of an ear infection
when Barb and I were out of the country the only
time shed been in the hospital since she was born.
Once harvested, those numbers are amassed by
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
brokers and sold at a premium as part of falsified
documentation to illegals hoping to portray themselves as bonafide immigrants. A social security
number allows legitimacy in employment; tax payments are made to the account like normal and no
one ever questions how much or from what source
the money comes. The SSN is the key to various
other benefits to being a legitimate American like
verification for voter registration under the Help
America Vote Act of 2002, conducted through the
department of motor vehicle in every state.
So you see, I know for a fact that Kobachs not
just chasing shadows.
Amazingly, the Social Security Administration
turns a blind eye to it all. No alert is ever sounded
that says hey, why is a four-year old from Kansas
working a construction job in Lincoln, Neb., and
paying in to Social Security? If they dont check that,
would the SSA be any more ambitious in checking
the last four digits of a social security number used
to verify voter registration under HAVA? When we
checked after this whole mess began it was clear
SSA just wanted to shut up, play dumb, and collect
the money.
Where we sell illegal immigration short is in
thinking its anything less than organized crime,
with tentacles stretching from illegal drug operations to theft of identities to manipulating elections
in order to affect public policy and laws. It is far and
above some impoverished guy slipping across the
border to pick lettuce to send money home to his
family.
So when Democrats argue that Kobachs actions
are designed to thwart the vote or persecute immigrants, you can tell them I learned the real story
from my daughter the 4 year-old meth dealer.

I know there are a lot of people in this

hit could belong to a little kid, and then
that kid will be upset. I moved one out
of the road tonight that belonged to a
kid and the kid was very upset about it.
To the moron about illegal people
entering our country, I think youre
the one that needs to know your facts
before you sound off like an idiot.
According to Time Magazine which is
one source, look it up on the Internet,
there are several sources, over a million illegals for the last nine years left
the United States to go back to Mexico.
Its been going down for nine years,
so why dont you get your hands out
of Trumps pants and try to get something right.
The Colin Powell Defense and Hillary Clinton
The influence that Colin Powell has over
Hillary Clinton is something to behold. His
word is her command. When he tells her
to break the law and endanger the nations
secrets, she doesnt hesitate. She salutes
smartly and does as she is told.
Clinton has been desperate for the moral
cover of Colin Powell for her email arrangement since the scandal first broke last year.
Now weve learned that Clinton told the FBI
that Powell advised her to use private email
as secretary of state at a dinner in 2009. This
escalates Clintons email defense from Hey,
Colin Powell did it, too, all the way to Colin
Powell made me do it.
The Powell defense doesnt make much
sense. While the former general used a private email as secretary of state, it was at
a time when the department didnt have
a robust email system of its own. And he
obviously didnt set up his own private server. After Powell left State, the departments
rules steadily got stricter about using official email for State Department business
and preserving email records — and Clinton
blew through them all. On the advice, we are
supposed to believe, of none other than Colin
Powell, the Professor Moriarty of Clintons
illicit email practices.
The New York Times reported that at a
dinner party hosted by former Secretary
of State Madeleine Albright that included
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
other former secretaries of state, Albright
asked Clintons predecessors what counsel they would give her. Allegedly, Powell
didnt advise Clinton (channeling Winston
Churchill) that diplomacy is the art of telling people to go to hell in such a way that
they ask for directions, or even to avoid a
land war in Asia. He told her to use private
email.
Powell says now thats not how he remembers it. If Clinton really wanted someones
permission to use private email, she could
have asked the State Department, which she
never did. In a new book, the left-wing jour-
nalist Joe Conason writes that Clinton had
already decided to use private email months
before the Albright dinner.
Of course she had, and for her own reasons. She wanted to hide as much of her business as possible from journalists and congressional committees seeking information
on how she operated. Given the gross intermingling of State Department and Clinton
Foundation business, this was only prudent.
No wonder that Colin Powell finds
Hillarys effort to enlist him as one of the
justifications for her private server so galling. Powell told a reporter, Her people have
been trying to pin it on me. Referring to a
description of his email practices he sent to
her (at her request), Powell said, The truth
is, she was using [her private server] for a
year before I sent her a memo telling her
what I did.
No one forced Hillary to use her private
email for State Department business in a
manner so flagrantly against the rules. And
no one forced her and her husband to run
their foundation as a vast pay-to-play scheme
whose inner workings must be shielded from
public view. Thats her responsibility and no
one elses — certainly not Colin Powells.

Review.
You know Im just wondering how many
traffic accidents does one driver get to
cause, how many people injured and
even killed in one of these accidents,
before the cops or the judge or somebody
takes his license away so he cant drive?
This individual is an absolute menace
in our community and should not be
driving around in a 2,000 pound weapon.
Thank you.
I swore Id never call or read the Phone
Forum, however a friend of mine showed
me a statement made about me and my
wife in the Aug. 23, 2016, issue of The
Anderson County Review. Unlike the
individual who made the false accusation and doesnt have to give their name,
I will say that I am the city managers
husband. Yes, I did weed eat the area
around the stop light pole at the corner
of Maple and Park Road. Why? Because
it needed it. The city employees are
having a difficult time keeping up with
the mowing due to the weather. So I
decided to do this to help out and make
the area look better. Did I get paid? No.
Apparently this misinformed individual
hasnt seen me in other areas around
the city doing my part to help. I have volunteered countless hours helping promote this city. Do you understand what
the word volunteer means? No pay. My
pay is the satisfaction of doing whatever is needed at the time to help. My
number is listed in the telephone book,
so Id like this individual to call me and
Ill find something too for him or her to
do besides badmouth me and my wife.
She has dedicated her life to this city as
a city employee, and I try to follow her
lead and will help out any way I can. Its
called civic pride. Thank you.
During all the tragedies in individual
lives, cities and countries, it takes a
really small mind to complain about a
man mowing some city grass. The man
volunteered his own time, his mower
and his gas to help the city get caught up
on needed mowing. He didnt get paid.
There are many citizens whose yards
border the rail trail who mow the citys
right of way. Try to be a good citizenvolunteer.
Former resident complains about Garnett Housing Authority
You could say the first issue
Robert Logan and I encountered
at Park Plaza North in July 2011
was: The message left for Joyce
Bennett with a staff person confirming we wanted to rent #102
PPN which never got to her.
We were to be moving in with
two cats, one of whom did not
fit requirements – one had claws
and there was a limit of one
pet allowed. Joyce Bennett was
incredibly helpful in getting the
requirements waived. She was
the personification of an ideal
executive director.
I am not sure the exact order
of all which follows:
We were given permission to
buy and have a shower door and
an extra security bar installed
in the master bathroom at #102
plus state of the arts shower
apparatus in the guest bath….
Especially replacing the cheap
motel like shower heads. We
also got the okay to purchase
and have maintenance install
five under cabinet lights. Before
my leaving #102 PPN for #12
garden apartment..Whatever
improvements we made at the
villa totaled about $2,000. There
was never an acknowledgment from management or the
Garnett Housing Authority of
that fact.
Karlyn (Hulett, Garnett
Housing Authority director) has
bamboozled the GHA members
who attend monthly meetings
and have never, in the 5 years I
have lived here done anything
except show up for meetings or
owned up to several too many
discrepancies in/at the complexs very soon after moving
in.. #102 Villa, the kitchen faucet proved to be malfunctioning.
When reporting it, Karlyn said
it was installed by the previous
renter who was responsible to
fix it …Total B.S. Several visits
from maintenance proved useless including managements
cooperation so we had a new
faucet with a workable sprayer installed ..At our expense by
local plumber, Paul Scobee.
One day, while Karlyn was
making one of her usually too
lengthy visits at #102. She tells
me: This is not your home, this
is a rental. Those words yet
ring in my ears including those
when, a couple of years later,
just after Logan went to a nursing facility, she asked me. Can
you afford it? Such an ignorant,
unqualified question which was
none of her business or concern
as long as her office was getting
my rent checks on time. (As of
recent several months. My rent
checks are left at Joyce Martins
desk… I refuse to cross Karlyns
path, her attitude towards the
residents and unkempt look
became too much for me to
accept.)
When Logan left PPN to die at
Golden Heights. Karlyn would
not lower the rent because
Logans stuff was yet at the
villa. How stupid was she not to
realize after our living together
since 1963, what was his was
mine and and vice versa. Karlyn
lacks the milk of human kindness and is well known for her
negativity.
Karlyns comments state
eyesight has me with issues re:
Entering and exiting my garage.
And, that planned for asphalt to
widen the driveway will not be
done. Which is what I am yet
expecting. It was noticed during
construction of the garages that
not enough black top was laid
to facilitate getting in and out
of garages easily. ..Most every
garage on the north side of the
complex has issues…aka dents.
When living at the villa, both
side mirrors of my SUV were
replaced because it was difficult
getting in and out of the garage
with both in place.
It cost my insurance company
$4,000 for body work to my SUV
october – 2014 – because of scraping it entering the garage soon
after moving in #12, two and a
half years ago.. The issue with
my eyes Karlyn would mention
actually began in January of
2015… many months after issues
with the lack of driveway.
I also had no eye issue when
at #102, knocking off both side
view mirrors because of its too
narrow opening for my suv.
Maintenance person Randy did
make a suggestion after the fact
to close the right side mirror
before entering which i did until
leaving the villa, February 1,
2014.
Am sure of being considered
a nuisance at PPN office where
Karlyn states she is weary of me.
However, any personal work
asked of maintenance went with
a check of a donation to the
fund Karlyn said it would go.
Sometimes though, brownies
were given in thanks.
I can honestly prove that at
no time did I ask for more than
was expected for the apartments
in which I lived at PPN. Each
time, I had a more than qualified was only at the groups last
reason to comment/complain meeting – poo-pooed my idea to
about an issue, as mentioned have a caregivers program for
above, which would include Garnett saying it was tried prethe need of a new microwave viously but discontinued. I do
oven at #102 because it came to well remember that Alzheimers

entered three quilts in the fair.
Do you have a
hobby like quilting?
Did anyone miss my column
in last weeks paper? Being
absolutely honest with you, I
just plain forgot to write one.
Even one of the Review Staff
members sent me an e-mail,
wondering where or if I had
sent in a draft copy.
They say everyone should
have a hobby and Kay and I do.
Kays is indoors creating new
ideas and making NEW things
in Hand Quilting ( which is getting to be nearly a lost art). All
of you know mine is outdoors

Three quarters of a century-old local business was consumed by flames Wednesday
morning after a fire started in
the old grain mill of Colony
Grain, LLC. The business started operations in Colony in 1930.
Anderson, Allen and Coffey
County fire departments were
summoned to the blaze that
began around 9 a.m. Days after
the fire was brought under
control, smoke still rose from
the smoldering debris. The fire
started in the old grain mill portion of the elevator but quickly
spread to the office area of the
building. Several volunteers
helped removed records from
the office until conditions
were no longer safe. Everyone
escaped uninjured. The company had insurance but they are
still unsure of the elevators
future.
City commissioners sought
to cauterize the nagging wound
of the now-defunct Garnett
Church Furniture Company
during a special meeting
Tuesday night, when after
lengthy discussion the city
opted to default on its remaining $1.1 million finance obligation for the new production
building which now stands
empty in Golden Prairie
Industrial Park.

ANCO GOP hosts
program to oust judges
GARNETT The Anderson
County Republican Party will
host a program in Garnett on
Tuesday, Sept. 20, by Better
Judges for Kansas aimed at
instructing local voters how
to vote out Kansas Supreme
Court Justices in the coming
November election.
The meeting presentation
will be held at 7 p.m. at AuBurn
Pharmacys corporate board
room.
Better Judges for Kansas is
organized with the assistance
of Kansans For Life, and has
targeted members of the state
supreme court for the courts
rulings to support partial dismemberment abortion, allow
certain violent criminals early
release and various decisions
conservatives say take school
finance out of the realm of the
states legislature and place it
under the courts authority.
While traditionally adopting
an apolitical position, conservatives also have criticized
Justice Carol Beier for a fundraising event held in her home
for Paul Davis, a Democrat who
ran unsuccessfully for governor against Sam Brownback in
2014.
Though appointed by a
panel of attorneys and lay people and confirmed by the governor, judges stand for retention
at the conclusion of their terms
by a vote of the general electorate. If voted out, that position can be replaced under the
existing system.

event contact Anderson County

multimodal economic development opportunities across the
state.
The street repair work
undertaken by the City of
Garnett totaled $225,000 in
repairs in 2016, about $50,000
more than city officials expected to spend this year. But
requests to improve the lake
road and to join the countys
project to improve the road to
the Cedar Valley Reservoir convinced city commissioners to
take money out of the citys
utility reserve fund and put it
toward street work.
The citys work on the lake
road also was helped by a $32,000
donation from the Lake Garnett
Racing Association, a defunct
group that organized world-reknowned Grand Prix race car
events at the lake during the
1950s, 60s and 70s. The group
agreed to donate its remaining
funds to the city to fix the lake
road because of a throwback
racing event, the Lake Garnett
Grand Prix Revival, that brings
classic sports and racing cars
back to Garnett and the lake
in October. Participants can
drive around the lake at higher speeds in various exhibition
events, but some drivers have
complained the poor condition
of some parts of the lake road
made it hazardous to drive
their expensive classic cars.
The Revival organizers raised
participation fees in order to
help with road improvements
as well. The next Revival event
is scheduled for Oct. 8 and 9.
City leaders debated at
length over the past two years
or so about the value of fixing
the lake road. Its very expensive to replace asphalt on the
entire 3 mile stretch, and most
commissioners have said they
would rather devote money to
fixing residential streets.
In a compromise, the city
agreed to spend $43,000 to lay
new asphalt on 1,037 feet of road
before and after the Country
Club entrance. That amount
includes the $32,000 donated by
the racing association. The city
also has replaced an aging culvert under the bridge at one end
of that stretch. It was expected
the work would be completed
and the lake road reopened late
Monday or today.
The city also faced an expen-
STORMS…
sive hurdle at Prairie Plaza
Road in the southeastern part
of the city. The street runs
between Neosho Road and U.S.
169 and provides access to the
Garnett Inn and Suites and
Hurricane Services. Because
the street was built years before
Hurricane Services arrived, it
was not expected that heavy
trucks and semi-trailers would
traverse its surface and it
does not have a sufficient base
to support such traffic. As a
result, the road was badly damaged, with asphalt rippled and
buckled in some places.
Killough
Construction,
which typically repairs city
streets, said the cost to adequately repair the road would
exceed the $29,000 the city set
aside for the work. Instead, it
would cost $114,000 to replace
the base and fix the problem.
Garnett City Manager Joyce
Martin said the city couldnt
afford to spend that much
money on Prairie Plaza this
year, and asked Killough to do
whatever repairs they could
make for $29,000. She said
trucks that travel to and from
Hurricane Services have been
asked to use Neosho Road to
access the driveway on Prairie
Plaza, rather than turning
onto Prairie Plaza from U.S.
169, which is a shorter route.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 30, 2016
Ferguson retires from Beachners at Richmond
BY PAT VINING Special to THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Life after this falls crop
harvest will be entirely new
for Ralph Fergusonone hes
looking forward to with a bit
of anxiety, but he knows it
will be a slower pace, which
he certainly deserves.
After 25 years as manager of Beachner Grain at
Richmond, and 14 years at the
Williamsburg elevator before
that, the likeable Ferguson
will retire to his farm where
hell have more time for his
cows, antique tractors, grandkids and community projects.
Friends from a wide area
gathered at the Richmond
office Thursday to show their
appreciation to Ferguson as
he readies to exit at age 75.
They also met the new manager, Mark Michael of Iola,
who has been at Beachners
Garnett site. Ferguson will
be part-time through fall harvest to help Michael learn the
ropes.
Major
changes
have
evolved at the grain elevator
in the 25 years of Fergusons
tenure, including computerized bookkeeping, the automatic grain probe which
eliminated climbing steps to
get samples from each load
of grain on the scales, and
removing the hoist in the elevator itself about eight years
ago. This makes dumping
grain much easier and faster.
The number of real
farms that produce most of
the soybeans, corn, wheat and
milo in the Richmond area
has condensed in that time
period from 40-45 to about 20
or fewer now, said Ferguson.
There used to be 100 dairy
farms in Franklin County
and now there are eight. The
elevators like Ottawas tend
to get bigger and bigger, but
theres a need for one this far
from Ottawa or Garnett.
There are still a good number of week-end and retired
farmers who have a small
herd of cattle or maybe some
market pigs, who buy grain
ready to feed. But the busiest
time, by far, is fall harvest,
when the trucks that come
in now are all 10-wheelers, at
least, and many are 18-wheeler semis.
It used to be that mom or
grandpa came in with a 100bu. wagon or pick-up with a
couple of kids, gas cans, water
jugs and who knows what
else, laughed Ferguson. It
took two men to unload and
something often went wrong.
Now it takes one man to dump
the semi, about 1,000 bushels,
without much stress, and the
truck is on its way.
There has been no train
service at Richmond for
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 8-30-2016 / Pat Vining
Mark Michael, left, will succeed Raph Ferguson as manager at Beachner Grain in Richmond. Ferguson retired
after 25 years as manager at the Richmond facility, and 14
years at the Williamsburg elevator before that. Ferguson is
also shown at right.
years, so scheduling trucks
to haul out grain has sometimes been a challenge, but
always accomplished. The elevators capacity is 300,000 plus
bushels and there have been
three years the elevators were
emptied twice and re-filled the
third time with shelled corn.
Those were great years
for corn, said Ferguson, But
this year looks just as promising.
Richmond has also stored
milo on the ground temporarily five or six years although
not much milo is raised now
so that probably wont happen
again.
When we had a feed mill
we had five employees, some
seasonal, but we dont do that
now. We work with other
Beachner sites and cooperate
a lot, is the simple explanation. Richmond has six fertilizer spreaders and spring
ground work is a busy time,
also.
Through the 39 years,
and especially the 25 at
Beachners, the lines of work
and community service are
often blurred. Especially at
Richmond Fair time, there
was Ferguson and the elevators Skid-loader, doing whatever needed to be done at the
livestock barns and elsewhere.
It was often three generations
of Fergusons cleaning
the barns after almost
everyone else had taken
their animals and gone
home on Saturday night.
That would be Ralph,
son Rick and grandsons
Dakota and Brian.
Beachners doesnt
just allow me to take
time and equipment to
help with the fair and
clean snow from peoples
driveways and other
things, they encourage
it, said Ferguson. Like
watering the flower pots
up and down main street
that Ferguson and the
elevators other male
employee, Scott Snow,
have done for several
years.
Yeah, it takes water,
time and equipment, but I
think its worth it to do whatever we can, and Beachners
does, too. Thats one of the
good parts of a small town;
everyone who wants to can
pitch in and do what needs
to be done. You dont have
to worry about some higher
approval in most cases, but
just do it.
Ferguson is chief of the
Williamsburg-Homewood
Rural Fire Dept., and has been
superintendent of the swine
department of the Franklin
Co. Fair for 30 plus years.
Numerous other activities
have gained from his hard
work and leadership.
Ralph and Sandi were
Richmond Fair parade marshals in 2015, recognition they
earned and deserved.
When he IS home part-time
this fall and full-time later,
home will be rather quiet
since his wife, Sandi, will still
be at Beachners, where she is
bookkeeper and office manager.
Who knows — not this
September, but maybe in 2017,
he can take one or two of his
half dozen antique tractors to
Power of the Past in Ottawa
and actually relax and enjoy
the event?
Ferguson figures he can
call 100 or more customers
by name and he values their
friendship and the experiences hes shared with each one
of them.
For, like Will Rogers, Ralph
Ferguson never met a man
he didnt like, and they like
Ralph!

(KLC), student leaders representing their KAY organizations, receive organizational
and leadership training and
learn about new and exciting
service projects. They are
given the opportunity to meet
and share ideas with hundreds
of KAY members from all over
the state. Activities during the
week include team and mascot
meetings, leadership labs, special interest options, creative
projects, housing service projects, and recreational activities. Each evening includes a
special activity for campers
and staff.
The camp theme this summer was LIGHTS, CAMERA,
ACTION! At KLC, campers
were provided a memorable
time as they discovered the
potential they have to make
a difference as well as the
rewards in serving others.
Student campers have the
opportunity to develop lifetime
leadership skills, lasting friendships across the state, a sense
of responsibility and pride as
they serve, and an attitude of
doing for others because its
the right thing to do!
A great deal of spirit, motivation and enthusiasm was generated from this time together.
Campers return to their clubs
with a better understanding of
their individual potential and
the KAY organization. They
realize that as an active leader in their club, YES I CAN
truly make a difference with
their I Get To attitude.

BUSINESS
Whats your big pitch? Lybarger attends FFA District Officers Conference
Theres a national sandwich
franchise that stakes its whole
marketing message on a single benefit it wants to convey.
Dont do it the way they do, but
do it sort of like they do.
The big push through their
national TV and radio advertising is that they can get you a
sandwich so fast its practically
there before you order it. Why,
their delivery is so fast they
can even beat the fire department to your house if you order
a sandwich at the same time
you call 911.
Its a witty and somewhat
memorable ad campaign, but
Im not sure if getting your
sandwich delivered at near
the speed of light is the most
important thing to their customers. Ive eaten at their franchise restaurants on a dine-in
basis and frankly, I wasnt that
impressed with their product
it wouldnt really matter how
fast they got it to me it just
wasnt that good.
What theyve done is to take
a relatively parity product
a sandwich is pretty much a
sandwich is a sandwich, just
like a gallon of gas here is a
gallon of gas there and come
up with what they believe is a
dominant benefit that makes
them more competitive speed
of delivery. Presuming customers are so hungry they can eat
the upholstery off the furniture
when they order a sandwich,
this franchise can get a sandwich to them and satisfy their
hunger faster than anyone else.
Even if the actual sandwich
is, well, ehh
Yet the concept theyre
working on is sound, and its
one that can help all of us in
small business define our sales
and marketing efforts.
In my opinion they missed
the mark Im not sure delivery speed is the most important
thing the customer wants when

ordering a sandwich. What is
the most important thing? You
have to listen to what your customers, and those of your competitors, say.
A great and cheap way to
get this customer input is to
haunt the online review sites
and blog discussions about the
product or service your business offers. Customers participating on those online discussions have no reason not
to be honest theyre usually
anonymous after all so what
you get there are their honest responses. Look for issues
and problems that are repeated
among the customers who buy
your product or service, and
you find what to them is a dominant benefit and a dominant
value if you can communicate
that point and make good on
the promise to provide it.
Maybe the sandwich customer really wants fluffier bread,
or tastier meats, a cheaper deal
or fresher veggies on his sandwich more so than speed. You
dont know unless you listen to
him.
Once you have that information regarding your own products or services, you know how
to promote yourself.

Attend Low Stress Cattle
Handling Workshop
Cattle caregivers have
exciting obligations, responsibilities, and opportunities to
contribute to cattle well being.
Shifting priorities from disease detection to performance
enhancement results in new
levels of cattle welfare, says
DVM Tom Noffisinger.
Dr. Noffsinger will be one
of the guest speakers at the
Low Stress Cattle Handling
Workshop hosted by Frontier
Extension District and Coffey
County Extension on Sept. 26,
2016. Presentations will begin
at 8:30 a.m. at the Williamsburg
Community
Building,
Williamsburg, Kansas. The
Community Building is located
on old 50 Hwy in downtown
Williamsburg. Pre-registration
is required and will be limited to the first 225 participants.
Call 785.828.4438 or 620.364.5313
to register by Sep. 19. Sponsors
with commercial booths will be
on site for participants to visit.
Dr. Noffsinger, a nationally recognized Low Stress
Livestock Handling advocate
and presenter, will serve as
our keynote presenter for the
day. After an introductory presentation on Animal Welfare
Concerns and Consumer
Perceptions of Livestock
Production, by Dr. Dan
Thomson from Kansas State
University, Dr. Noffsinger will
continue the morning session
with seminar-style indoor presentations including videos
that cover the basic concepts,
and introduce the techniques
of low stress livestock handling
with cattle.
In the afternoon, attendees
will move to a nearby ranch
with facilities and cattle that
will enable Dr. Noffsinger to
conduct actual live demonstrations and further elaborate on the techniques of low
stress livestock handling while
sorting in pens and working
through facilities. Interspersed
throughout the day will be
presentations on Livestock
Working Facility Design with
Safety in Mind, and Weaning
Practices to Reduce Stress on
Calves.
Presenters for the day
include: Dr. Dave Rethorst;
Dr. Dan Thomson; Dr. Tom
Noffsinger; Kelley Lenz (WIBW)
and Joe Bichlemeyer (owner
of Silkville Ranch). Todays
consumer of meat products is
becoming more concerned with
the welfare of the animals along
all phases of the food production chain. Stress on an animal
at any point along the journey
from pasture to plate decreases productivity of the animal,
profitability to the producer
as well as quality of product
to the consumer. Cattle handling has evolved a great deal
from the whoopin and hollerin picture depicted in movies.
Conscientious producers today
are becoming increasingly
aware of the publics concerns
and are striving to incorporate
a greater number of practical
quality assurance practices
into their livestock production enterprises. Low Stress
Livestock Handling throughout the production chain is one
aspect of this quality assurance effort.
Stockmanship
is
an
under-appreciated
and
under-utilized component of
operating sustainable livestock
operations and just one essential component is low stress
livestock handling. Evidence is
there to persuade us that it is
worth adopting low stress livestock handling. It accrues benefits over conventional livestock
handling in several categories,
including performance, efficiency, safety, animal welfare
and quality of life.
Numerous scientific studies
have illustrated that indices
of animal performance (e.g.,
weight gain, conception rates,
milk yield, immune function
and carcass quality) are positively correlated with good
livestock handling practices
and negatively correlated with
coercive handling practices.
The first step in adopting
low stress cattle handling practices is to develop a calm attitude when moving cattle. The
second step to learning low
stress cattle handling methods
is to fully understand the principle of flight zones and point of
balance.
Caretakers can have a positive impact on cattle health,
performance, and well being
through effective low stress
handling at key interventions
like calving, tagging, grazing,
weaning, processing and shipping. Producers that concentrate on low stress handling
skills will recognize abnormal
behavior and attitude and
develop the confidence and
skill to manipulate behavior to
improve levels of animal welfare.
MANHATTAN Katie
Lybarger of the Anderson
County FFA Chapter participated in the Kansas FFA
District Officers Conference
(DOC) held at Rock Springs
Ranch in Junction City, KS,
August 13-14. Lybarger serves
as the East Central District
Treasurer.
The Olympic theme, Light
the Torch encompassed the
key elements of finding individual strengths, identifying
team visions and goals, and
creating a dialogue using values throughout the conference. Just as each of these
ideas is necessary in any business or organization, district
officers are expected to serve
with these key themes in mind
as they travel to their destination of impacting the lives
of FFA members. Throughout
the year, they will be serving
FFA members across the state
and building leadership skills
that will make them capable,
responsible citizens in life.
To kick the conference off,
the district officers attended
an informative session about
Supervised
Agricultural
Experiences or SAEs. State
FFA advisor Kurt Dillon led
members in an interactive
session to learn more about
SAEs and the impact that they
have on Kansas FFA members. Sessions like these help
members build their understanding of the agricultural
issues directly impacting
everyone.
The conference continued
with an exciting session, Find
Your Light, which outlined
the importance of knowing
how to use your personal
strengths to benefit a team.
District officers were able to

explore the contribution each
officer can make and how to
help each other navigate the
year.
In the next session, Lighting
the Way, the district officers
experienced the creation of
a team vision and goals on
a personal, team and district
level. Past state officer, Taylor
Green, then held an informative session at dinner about
etiquette. Later, the officers
focused their energy in a
training session specifically
focusing on key skills that will
enable them to produce great
ANDERSON
workshops. District officers
were able to practice these
skills and learn how to apply
them in their own workshops
through a rotational, handson experience.
Day two of the conference
kicked off with, Light the
Torch, a session dedicated
to brainstorming ideas for
each districts Greenhand
Conference in the fall, a conference for first year FFA
members. The last session,
Sparking
Conversations,
included the officers discovering how to create a dialogue
with others about FFA and
agriculture by connecting
on a personal level and not
relying solely on facts. As the
conference drew to a close,
district officers enjoyed an ice
cream social before heading
home to implement the skills
that they had learned. District
Officers Conference is sponsored by the K-State College
of Agriculture and Turner
Flowers and Country Store.

When you come to the door, knock
In the gospel of John 10:9
Jesus says; I am the door. If
anyone enters by me, he will
be saved and will go in and out
and find pasture. I have found
this expression very helpful in
my understanding that salvation is given to those who trust
in Christ. The door represents
to me the path to salvation. In
reality we can affect nothing
in this life that will pass with
us when we die except securing our salvation. For instance
at birth we cannot determine
when we will be born or where
or who our parents will be.
These things are determined by
God.
As we pass through life
many individuals, events
and circumstances affect our
lives. Here is why the door is
so important to me. During
our lifetime you and I will be
exposed to the things of God.
We will make choices that will
bring us to the door (Jesus) that
leads into heaven. In order
to receive salvation we must
WEEKLY
DEVOTIONAL
By David Bilderback
pass through the door. The
decision to knock on the door
is one that is very easily postponed. We can come to the door
then turn around and return
from where we came. This can
happen numerous times until
finally we either fear the door
so much we cannot knock or
our heart has grown so hard we
have no interest in God. In the
first instance one can develop a
fear of God. A fear of the only
one (God) who can save us. In
the second instance one can see
God as an obstacle to their own
desires and exclude him from
their life or carry on a form of
religion rather than a relationship with Christ.
The door has no knob on
the outside. That is why it is
necessary to knock. This is
a very individualized time for
each of us. Just God and you
or I. Behind the door lies eternity. The keeper of the door is
the Son of the eternal God. We
have nothing to fear from God.
Jesus says that, If anyone
enters by me, he will be saved.
This guarantees that salvation
is given to those who trust in
Christ. It is made plain in John
14:6, when Jesus says I am the
way, and the truth, and the life.
No one comes to the Father
except through me, that only
those who believe in Jesus will
be saved. And in John 3:16,
the necessity and sufficiency of
Christ is confirmed by John the
Baptist. Whoever believes in
the Son has eternal life, whoever does not obey the Son shall
not see life, but the wrath of
God remains on him. The
decision is ours. When you
come to the door knock.

on the Holiness of God.
