Cure or quackery?
Video endorsement of
reputed Covid-19 treatment
goes viral before its snuffed
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WASHINGTON, D.C. An explosive
controversy seen worldwide last week
pitted doctors claiming direct benefits
of an anti-Covid-19 drug treatment
against mainstream professionals and
social media platforms that seemed
in an undue hurry to debunk them as
quacks and censor their message.
Americas Frontline Doctors
press conference on the steps of the
U.S. Supreme Court and its aftermath
spawned conspiracy theories on both
sides of the countrys ongoing overflow of political polarization, but it
also gave the world the first possible
bright spot in Covid-19 since the virus
became an issue earlier this year.
Meanwhile as the controversy
was broiling, The Anderson County
Review sought input from any and
all of the 26 local Covid cases record-
ed thus far by the Southeast Kansas
Multi-County Health Department
since the pandemic was first reported
here, as well as at least one local physician.
No one responded to a query on
the newspapers Facebook page to
talk about either the disease or the
possibilities of hydroxychloroquine,
a traditional and inexpensive malaria
treatment. The now under fire doctors
group championed the drug as both
a preventative and a virtual cure for
people in early stages of Covid-19.
Mondays 45-minute press conference was livestreamed by the conservative online news channel Breitbart,
but was removed by Facebook, Twitter
and Youtube hours later for what the
platforms claimed were violations of
Covid misinformation.
Before it was scrubbed, the
Facebook video received millions of
views and was shared some 600,000
times, and the hashtag #hydroxychloroquine was tweeted more
than 150,000 times, becoming one of
Twitters leading overnight messag-
es. The British Broadcasting
Company (BBC) said data
from the Facebook-owned
social media analytics tool
CrowdTangle showed public posts in the last 24 hours
containing the word hydroxychloroquine have had 6.6
million engagements (likes,
shares, views, comments and
reactions) on Facebook and
Instagram despite the removal of several versions of the
video.
After the video was deleted and online attacks on the
doctors credibility began,
the group returned to the
USSC again- Tuesday and
conducted an abbreviated
version of Mondays event,
also livestreamed. A link to
this Youtube video posted on
the Reviews Facebook page
was obscured and flagged as
False Information. Checked

Doctors from around the country staged a press conference last week touting hydroxychloroquine as a treatment and possible cure for Covid-19. A video of the event went viral
before it was deleted from social media platforms.
Wind industry donations
schmooze for local legislators
Indirect contributions
go to support Samsel,
Finch campaigns
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA As controversy continues to swirl in Kansas over
moves by the commercial wind
industry to build massive turbine
fields in rural areas, two local
legislators were listed as beneficiaries of wind industry political
contributions as part of a campaign filing made July 23.
Fifth
District
State
Representative Mark Samsel
of Wellsville, who represents
most of Anderson County in the
Kansas House, said the contributions were made not directly to
his campaign, but instead to special interest groups promoting
his candidacy independently.
That group put out a lot of
fliers in support of me. I think
its them. Their broader concern
is the whole economy, Samsel
said. It doesnt affect any of my
positions, he said. Im local
control.
Ottawan Blaine Finch of the
59th District was also one of the
21 legislators who benefited from
those dollars, according to the
reports gathered by The Sentinel,
an online news channel owned by
the conservative Kansas Policy
Institute.
A July 23 campaign finance
report from American Energy
Action Kansas obtained by The
Sentinel shows the Kansas wind
industry spent more than $180,000
supporting 21 candidates for the
Kansas House and Senate in the
three weeks since the groups filing.
Wind farms are fairly controversial in some parts of Kansas.
Anderson County activists
turned away a wind project in
2017 which was planned for the
eastern portion of the county, and
Linn County opponents reportedly convinced a German company
a few weeks ago to scuttle a project they tried to get off the ground
near Mound City last year.

A mix of clouds and clearing skies produced a brilliant double rainbow which was visible from
various locations in Anderson County on Wednesday.
County reopening means better jobs report in June
TOPEKA Anderson Countys unemployment scenario improved slightly in June
according to recently released figures, as
local businesses emerged from Governor
Laura Kellys Covid-19 shutdown and put
some employees back to work.
Anderson County logged a 4.9 percent
unemployment rate for June, down from
5.7 in May but better than a point-and-a half
worse than the 3.2 percent figure for June
2019. This years figures meant that of the
countys civilian labor force of 4,288, 212
were jobless.
Those workers drawing unemployment
during the initial Covid-19 shutdown saw
their additional $600 weekly payment expire
July 25 as well, as the Federal Pandemic
Unemployment Compensation payments
ended through the federal CARES Act. Those
special payments, meant to help offset addiSEE JOBS ON PAGE 6A

GARNETT City officials have
rescheduled the Libertyfest fireworks display for Labor Day
Weekend at Lake Garnett Park,
and are hoping locals will continue the generous donations that
were interrupted when the event
was cancelled in July.
Organizers scuttled the July 11
event after storms were forecast,
some of which ended up dropping tennis ball-sized hail south of
Garnett.
The Saturday, Sept. 5 event
will feature a concert by the
Garnett Community Band and
DJ music from Everett Cox.
Garnett Community Development
Director Susan Wettstein said
Covid-19 concerns had thown
uncertainty into the previously
planned Celebration of Service
tribute to veterans involved in the
citys patrotic banner contest. She
said an evaluation on the veterans
tribute would be made in coming
weeks.
The City of Garnett is still
accepting donations for the
fireworks. More information

Think safety first when
canning food at home
Americans have been canning foods at home for
more than 100 years. Yet still, says Kansas State
University food safety specialist Karen Blakeslee,
theres always something new to learn.
There are many older methods that are not safe to
use, Blakeslee said. So, its important to stay up to
date.
There are a variety of mistakes that can lead to
serious food safety problems when preserving food at
home by canning. A vast majority of canning or sealing
failures are due to user error. Just because the jar is
sealed, that doesnt mean the food is safe.
Some common mistakes that Blakeslee listed
include:
Following old and unsafe recipes, some of which
may have been passed down through generations of
families.
Following recipes that have not been tested and
approved, or adhere to current USDA guidelines. The
Internet is full of untested and unapproved recipes.
Using an incorrect jar size.
Using improper processing methods.
Storing food in an unsafe location, such as a place
where it is too hot, cold or moist.
Adjusting the band too tightly.
Not adjusting processing times for altitude.
Blakeslee, coordinator of K-States Rapid Response
Center for Food Safety, maintains a website, Preserve
it Fresh, Preserve it Safe, with current guidelines for
canning.
In canning, the goal is to produce a safe product and reduce risks of botulism, Blakeslee said.
Instances of botulism occur most often in home
canned foods. Before canning any food, be sure to have
all equipment ready to go.
Some examples of preparing for home canning
include examining canning jars so that they are clean
and free of cracks or chips; ensuring that you have new
lids never re-use canning lids as they may not seal,
Blakeslee said and if using a dial gauge pressure canner, get it tested every year.
Contact your local extension office to ask about testing a dial gauge pressure canner. Blakeslee said local
offices can test four brands: National, Presto, Magic
Seal and Maid of Honor pressure canners.
Be sure that canning equipment is maintained and
ready to use, Blakeslee said. Use the correct processing method for the type of food. Water bath canning (a
lower-temperature process) will safely process high
acid foods, such as jelly and fruit. Pressure canning
(temperatures of 240 degrees Fahrenheit or higher)
must be used for plain vegetables and all meats.

JUNE 17, 2020 – JULY 22, 2020
Andrew Lee Jackson, Jr.,
was born June 17th, 2020,
to Andrew Lee Jackson and
Alysha Nacole Morrissey in
Burlington, Kansas. He passed
away on Wednesday, July 22,
2020, at his home.
A Celebration of Life service
was held Thursday, July 30,
2020, at the Feuerborn Family
Funeral Service Chapel,
Garnett.
A Tourist in Kansas
unsuited to the local conditions, we managed to avoid
getting stuck in a chasm, powered up a steep incline as the
tires shot gravel behind us and
then we took a wrong turn. The
road narrowed in on us as it
traced the side of a hill so the
drivers side was lower than
the passenger side. Then, 15
yards from flat, smooth roadbed we came to a small gorge.
My daughter is old enough
she didnt learn any new words
during this adventure, but its
safe to say the plethora of profanity built to a crescendo at
this point in our journey. After
surveying the gully cutting
across our path, I shouted to
my wife and daughter we needed to dig to level the road.
We started using a jack handle to scrap dirt into the crater, and after about 30 minutes
of digging, another group
came along on the good
road, stopped and offered their
help. A half hour of poking
at the dirt with a metal rod
had dulled any semblance of
embarrassment at our self-inflected predicament. We gladly
accepted.
Two of the men in the group
grabbed a second jack handle
from one of their vehicles and
began flinging dirt. Within
10 minutes, wed leveled the
ground just enough to cautiously drive out to safe ground.
We thanked our helpers and
headed back to the Interstate
to continue on our journey,
which didnt involve any other
hiccups. We took in the badlands at Little Jerusalem with
a thunderstorm in the background. At Monument Rocks,
we dutifully posed for photos in
a keyhole between two spires
and then began our trek home,
only stopping for dinner and to
see the Cathedral on the Plains
in Victoria.
While the trip wasnt jumping from a bridge into a river
fed by glacial melt, or hiking
through Zion National Park,
it did remind me of the beauty
and wonder within our states
borders. Kansas is also a place
where complete strangers will
take the time to help, even if it
means piling dirt with a jack
handle. Still, if I had to do it
again, Id take a different vehicle and toss in a shovel. Just in
case.

Colony Christian
You may or may not
Church – James 3 like what you see
Darren McGhee gave the
Communion Meditation. Many
of Jesus disciples were fisherman. One of the stories in the
Bible is of his disciples being
up all night fishing and not
catching anything. Jesus told
them to throw their nets over
the other side of the boat. They
listened to him and did what
he said. Their nets nearly tore,
there were so many fish. Just
like the disciples, we need to
listen to Jesus. Matthew 13:4751 tells a parable about a fishing net being like the Kingdom
of Heaven. The fishing net
catches fish of every kind, then
the fisherman must take it to
shore and sort out the good fish
from the bad fish. This is similar to the end times when the
angels come down and separate
the righteous people from the
wicked people. We must all be
fishers of men, bringing others
closer to Jesus so they wont
perish.
Pastor Chase gave his sermon on James 3. Jesus disciples show others who Jesus is.
His ambassadors have a DUTY
of representing Jesus well. WE
are Jesus ambassadors. We
must endure and persevere
thru hard times, we should not
show favoritism (as all were
created in Gods image), treat
everyone the same, act out
of love, care for the poor and
orphans, provide for others
needs, etc. The challenge made
to us in James 3:1-12 is to learn
to control our tongues; what we
say, how we say it, and when
we say it. Just like with the
current problems plaguing our
country, Socialists/Marxists/
Rioters and others, someone
is behind them steering them
with their words. Words are
POWERFUL! And the tongue
is like a flame of fire. Yes a
fire and warm your home, give
you a light in the darkness,
cook your food, and many other
things. But even the smallest
flame can also burn your house
down and destroy everything
when its not controlled. And
Satan uses willing participants
to fulfill these things. But the
message of Christ will not be
drowned out. If were not careful, our natural nature is to sin,
and the tongue is a big proponent of that sin. We must STOP
tearing down other believers
and speak positively. We must
STOP criticizing and attacking non-believers, as this does
not bring them any closer to
a relationship with Jesus or
the way we believe, as their
standards are different than
ours. To help us control our
tongues, and therefore bring
others to Christ, we must be
prayerful, we must be constantly in the Scriptures, we must
choose to use our words to tell
others about the gospel. (Ref:
James 3:1-12; Matthew 12:33-37;
Proverbs 18:21; Psalm 19:14)

We live our lives Corem
Deo which simply means,
before the face of God. God
sees us but we seldom catch a
glimpse of God. We live our life
and we perceive it much as if
we were looking into a camera
lens. It is very easy for us to
perceive ourselves in the most
advantageous manner. We see
two images. The one image
is the way we want our life to
unfold. The persons we want
to share our life with. The job
we want and the resources to
do the things we want. The
other image is the one which
inhibits our desires. People
who we perceive to be an
obstacle to us. Circumstances
that seem to be obstacles to
us such as a financial reversal
or health issue. We are like a
thoroughbred race horse running with blinders for a finish
line, able only to see straight
ahead. We have no peripheral
vision. Unfortunately because
of our blinders we see only our
desires and the obstacles to
achieving these desires.
In the book of Ecclesiastes
Solomon provides us with a
good example of someone who
pursued everything life had
to offer. The issue Solomon
had was when he achieved the
desired result he was pursing he was left with tension
between what he had achieved
and a certain level of dissatisfaction with the achievement.
His conclusion concerning all
of his pursuits to please himself was, a chasing after the
wind.
Man has long been trying to
build paradise on earth. The
problem is man has learned to
follow, for the most part, the
law of the land because it is

enforced by a system that has
the authority to punish those
who wont. Following God is
quite another task. Since the
fall we were left with a moral
inability, that is since we are
faced with making a choice
most often we will take the low
road of the world rather than
the high road of God. And
truthfully we choose what we
most prefer. We are blinded
by our desires for ourselves.
It is this obsession with ourselves that forces God to the
periphery of our lives. When
our attention is diverted away
from something we soon lose
focus on it. How many times
in my life and yours have we
lost focus on something only to
find out how important it was
to us when its too late. This
life does not offer up enough
rewards to misplace God. We
must continually refocus to
keep God involved God has
never lost anyone but a lot of
us have lost him. You can
dismiss this but before you do
take some time and examine
your life. You may or may not
like what you see.

Greg Doering, Kansas Farm
Bureau
Our familys summer vacation plans changed three times
over the course of the past
few months. Initially my wife
and I planned on taking our
college senior daughter on a
grand excursion to Glacier
National Park, then hopping
the northern border to sightsee
in Calgary, Banff and Jasper.
We scratched that idea well
before Canada told U.S. citizens to take off, eh. We started
scouting campsites in southern Utah, where five National
Parks dot the landscape.
Unfortunately, as the time
came to reserve our campsites,
we saw Covid-19 cases growing
in Utah and here at home.
Retreating yet again, we
looked within the borders of
the Sunflower State. While
we dont have any glaciers,
nothing close to the Canadian
Rockies or the cool dry desert nights, theres still some
cool things to see in Kansas.
We settled on a day trip to see
Castle Rock, Monument Rocks
and Little Jerusalem Badlands
State Park.
I figured this would be an
easy, hassle free trip to the
northwest corner of our great
state. No need to do extensive
research on where to stay or
look up things to do. We had a
course and generally knew the
area. I had a lunch recommendation from our colleague.
We loaded into my wifes car
a little after 8 a.m. and headed
west. We initially planned on
having lunch first then getting
to the sightseeing. Instead,
the sign for Castle Rock beckoned from Interstate 70 and
we decided eating could wait.
This was the first mistake, but
the second would soon become
more apparent.
Generally, the best way to
spot a tourist is they either
have way too much gear or not
enough. We soon found ourselves in the latter category
when we turned off a perfectly
suitable gravel road to something giving minimum maintenance roads a bad name.
The same process that
eroded everything but Castle
Rock and the nearby badlands
is still in progress, and that
includes the loop around the
attraction. Its compounded by
vehicle traffic from looky-loos.
For the better part of a mile we
held our breath as we navigated over ruts more than a foot
deep in spots. Again, we were
traversing this in a car capable
of getting high-centered on a
speedbump.
While our vehicle was

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 4, 2020
OPINION
Politics killing Covid-19 cure
As professor of epidemiology at Yale School
of Public Health, I have authored over 300
peer-reviewed publications and currently hold
senior positions on the editorial boards of several leading journals. I am usually accustomed to
advocating for positions within the mainstream
of medicine, so have been flummoxed to find
that, in the midst of a crisis, I am fighting for a
treatment that the data fully support but which,
for reasons having nothing to do with a correct
understanding of the science, has been pushed
to the sidelines. As a result, tens of thousands of
patients with COVID-19 are dying unnecessarily. Fortunately, the situation can be reversed
easily and quickly.
I am referring, of course, to the medication
hydroxychloroquine. When this inexpensive
oral medication is given very early in the course
of illness, before the virus has had time to multiply beyond control, it has shown to be highly
effective, especially when given in combination
with the antibiotics azithromycin or doxycycline and the nutritional supplement zinc.
On May 27, I published an article in
the American Journal of Epidemiology (AJE)
entitled, Early Outpatient Treatment of
Symptomatic, High-Risk COVID-19 Patients
that Should be Ramped-Up Immediately as Key
to the Pandemic Crisis. That article, published
in the worlds leading epidemiology journal,
analyzed five studies, demonstrating clear-cut
and significant benefits to treated patients, plus
other very large studies that showed the medication safety.
Physicians who have been using these medications in the face of widespread skepticism
have been truly heroic. They have done what
the science shows is best for their patients, often
at great personal risk. I myself know of two
doctors who have saved the lives of hundreds
of patients with these medications, but are
now fighting state medical boards to save their
licenses and reputations. The cases against
them are completely without scientific merit.
Since publication of my May 27 article, seven
more studies have demonstrated similar benefit. In a lengthy follow-up letter, also published
by AJE, I discuss these seven studies and renew
my call for the immediate early use of hydroxychloroquine in high-risk patients. These seven
studies include: an additional 400 high-risk
patients treated by Dr. Vladimir Zelenko, with
zero deaths; four studies totaling almost 500
high-risk patients treated in nursing homes and
clinics across the U.S., with no deaths; a con-
GUEST COMMENTARY
HARVEY RISCH, YALE SCHOOL PUBLIC HEALTH
trolled trial of more than 700 high-risk patients
in Brazil, with significantly reduced risk of hospitalization and two deaths among 334 patients
treated with hydroxychloroquine; and another
study of 398 matched patients in France, also
with significantly reduced hospitalization risk.
Since my letter was published, even more doctors have reported to me their completely successful use.
My original article in the AJE is available
free online, and I encourage readersespecially physicians, nurses, physician assistants
and associates, and respiratory therapiststo
search the title and read it. My follow-up letter
is linked there to the original paper.
Beyond these studies of individual patients,
we have seen what happens in large populations
when these drugs are used. These have been
natural experiments. In the northern Brazil
state of Par, COVID-19 deaths were increasing
exponentially. On April 6, the public hospital
network purchased 75,000 doses of azithromycin
and 90,000 doses of hydroxychloroquine. Over
the next few weeks, authorities began distributing these medications to infected individuals.
Even though new cases continued to occur, on
May 22 the death rate started to plummet and is
now about one-eighth what it was at the peak.
A reverse natural experiment happened in
Switzerland. On May 27, the Swiss national government banned outpatient use of hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19. Around June 10, COVID19 deaths increased four-fold and remained
elevated. On June 11, the Swiss government
revoked the ban, and on June 23 the death rate
reverted to what it had been beforehand. People
who die from COVID-19 live about three to

Law supports Barr, but rankles Democrats
All criminal defendants are entitled to the
basic protections of criminal procedure and
due process and should not be subject to excessive punishment.
This includes Roger Stone.
In February, the Justice Department withdrew its nine-year sentencing recommendation for Stone after President Trump criticized
it in a tweet. This created quite a stir in
Washington and the media, with many outraged by the DOJs intervention.
Yesterday, during Attorney General William
Barrs visit to the House Judiciary Committee,
it was clear that Democrats are still rankled. In
response to accusations of favoritism towards
a Trump associate, Barr explained why he
lowered the recommendation.

Exactly. Equal justice requires that all peo-

ple — whether Trump friend or foe — are treated the same under the law.
Indeed, Mr. Stone is a 67-year-old man who
might not survive nine years in prison. The
prosecutors recommended sentence is thus
the rough equivalent of seeking the death
penalty. The investigation into Russia which
led to Mr. Stones prosecution was started
under problematic conditions that included
law-enforcement officials making material
misrepresentations to the FISA court. After a
yearslong investigation into Mr. Stone by the
Mueller team, none of the allegations that he
colluded with Russia proved to be true.
After investigators determined that Mr.
Stone did not commit any of the alleged underlying crimes, but instead may have obstructed
legal proceedings and tampered with a witness, a large team of armed law enforcement
officials went to Mr. Stones house along
with CNN cameras and arrested him and
took him to jail. One of the lead prosecutors involved in the investigation is Andrew
Weissman, an openHillary Clinton supporter
in 2016 who is now an MSNBC analyst and
harsh critic of the Trump administration.
Mr. Stone was eventually convicted of committing these crimes seven counts in all. It
was the first time he was ever convicted for
violating the law.
This background is brushed aside by those
incensed — still — that Barr would withdraw
the sentencing recommendation after Trumps
tweets.
Yes as Barr has correctly explained
Trump should abstain from interfering with or
publicly weighing in regarding the particulars
of any criminal case, including this one. And
this is important. But the Justice Department
changing the nine-year sentencing recommendation under these background circumstances is a humane approach to law enforcement.
Notwithstanding Trumps improper tweets
(and the long-lasting anger of Barrs critics) it
was the right thing to do.
The judge, who later sentenced Stone to just
over three years, agrees.
William Cooper is an attorney and columnist
who has written for publications including
The Wall Street Journal, Baltimore Sun, New
York Daily News, St. Louis Post-Dispatch and
USA Today.
Democrats terrified by their own creations
Democrats are running scared in 2020.
Frightened of the Socialists led by Bernie
Sanders and AOC.
Fearful of Black Lives Matter.
Panic-stricken over Antifa.
Intimidated by the Media.
Subservient to the Cancel Culture.
Terrified of Donald Trump and prospects of
his re-election.
Incapacitated by their own atonement;
oh-so-politically correct and apologetic to all.
Except white males.
Mobs tear down Confederate statues, attack
police, set fire to buildings. Has a Democrat
uttered a discouraging word?
On the contrary, the Democrat mayors of
New York City, Portland, and Seattle egg them
on, only criticizing federal law enforcement
sent to quell the violence. And it is violence,
not peaceful protests as their apologists
in the Media claim. Good thing theyre not
attacking a Planned Parenthood clinic, or the
Leftists would be the ones calling in the feds.
Why are Dems as petrified as Barney Fife

Because they are now captives of the

You can see the worry in the eyes of those
who the Dems ironically call leaders. The
Harpy of the House, Nancy Pelosi, knew the
Impeachment Hoax was a lost cause this year,
but was powerless to stand in the way of The
Mob.
You dont think Adam Schiffs eyes bulge
like that all the time, do you? The Deer
Community refers to that phenomenon as
Schiff-in-the-Headlights.
Jerry Nadler was likewise bewildered that
the Impeachment Hoax was taken from his
Judiciary Committee for the first time ever and
given to Schiffs secret Intelligence Inquisition
in the basement. It was an unprecedented No
Confidence vote in his leadership.
The Impeachment Managers themselves all
looked like they were being directed by somebody off-camera as they emerged with their
daily drivel. Stand here.Say this..Walk
away.
You could easily spot it during last weeks
grilling of Attorney General William Barr.

answer the questions. Like those who protest
conservative speakers on college campuses,
the Muzzlers of Freedom of Speech show a

counters their own.
That used to be called Fascism; before

Joe Biden is a pitiful and pathetic version

If black lives matter so much, why dont these
rioters in Portland, Or., and Seattle, Wa., go
against abortion clinics? I heard yesterday on
the radio in the United States of Ameroca blacks
account for 13 percent of the population but has
46 percent of abortions. They said Margaret
Sanger, who started the abortion clinics, said in
the 1960s she wanted to wipe out the black race.
Since all this riotings going on they took her
name off the clinics. They took her name off but
they kept the butchering houses open. If they
rioted against abortion clinics, rioters would be
stopped instantly.
My family has been Democrat for at least
three generations going all the way back to the
Depression and FDR and Harry Truman. To see
what has happened to what used be the party
of the people is a crying shame. My father and
my grandfather must be rolling over in their

have moved to another archaeological site because of the very
dry soil conditions.
I actually started my new
project on the 3rd of July. Each
trip out I try to excavate by hand
trowel a strip 32 wide, 10 long
and the depth varies from 4 to
10.
Now as you look at this picture, you will see quite a variety of items found. Two things
to keep in mind is first of all
archaeologists are trained to
remove every item that doesnt
belong in the ground. Secondly,
the reason for such a variety is
this homestead was lived in for
over 150 plus years.
We already know that the middle room of this house was built
several years before all the additions were. How do we know? By
the finding and locations of lots
of square nails and exposed hand
ax hewn support beams. All the
additions are built with common

Kansas State Fair adds poultry show
Bowlus Fine Arts Center is the first stop
to September livestock events
for Smithsonian Crossroads Exhibit
The Bowlus Fine Arts
Center announced today, that
they will be the first stop in
Kansas for the Smithsonian
Crossroads: Change in Rural
America
Exhibit.
The
Crossroads Kansas tour
is sponsored by Humanities
Kansas in partnership with
the Smithsonian Institutions
Museum on Main Street program. The Smithsonian's traveling exhibit will be housed in
the Dale P. Creitz Recital Hall
from August 29-October 10,
2020. Admission is free.
Crossroads:
Change
in Rural America, offers
small towns a chance to look
at their own paths to highlight the changes that affected their fortunes over the
past century. The exhibition will prompt discussions
about what happened when
Americas rural population
became a minority of the
countrys population and the
ripple effects that occurred.
The exhibit covers themes
such as: Identity, Land,
Community, Persistence and
Managing Change with photographs, hands-on activities,
and audio and video clips provided by the Smithsonian in
the Crossroads exhibition
to tell the history and culture
of local rural life in Kansas
and spark conversations
about our states future.
Through
a
partnership with the Smithsonian
Institutions Museum on Main
Street program, Humanities
Kansas is able to bring the
resources of the nations
premier cultural institution to Kansas, said Julie
Mulvihill, executive director
of Humanities Kansas. The
six communities were selected because of the inspired
plans provided by local organizations to use the national
exhibition as a springboard to
explore local stories of innovation and adaptation.
In addition to the six sites
hosting the Smithsonian,
ten communities will create
their own exhibitions and
programming to explore what
it means to live rural in the
21st century, the relationship
between rural, suburban,
and urban, and the progress
and persistence needed by
communities of all sizes to
thrive. Participating communities include Colby, Council
Grove, Dodge City, El Dorado,
Ellinwood, Hays, Lebanon,
Olathe, Onaga, and Satanta.
Humanities Kansas sponsors the Crossroads: Change
in Rural America initiative in partnership with the
Smithsonian Institutions

MEDICATION…
FROM PAGE 4A
to five weeks from the start of
symptoms, which makes the
evidence of a causal relation in
these experiments strong. Both
episodes suggest that a combination of hydroxychloroquine
and its companion medications
reduces mortality and should
be immediately adopted as the
new standard of care in highrisk patients.
Why has hydroxychloroquine been disregarded?
First, as all know, the medication has become highly politicized. For many, it is viewed
as a marker of political identity, on both sides of the political
spectrum. Nobody needs me to
remind them that this is not
how medicine should proceed.
We must judge this medication
strictly on the science. When
doctors graduate from medical
school, they formally promise
to make the health and life of
the patient their first consideration, without biases of race,
religion, nationality, social
standingor political affiliation. Lives must come first.
Second, the drug has not
been used properly in many
studies. Hydroxychloroquine
has shown major success when
used early in high-risk people
but, as one would expect for
an antiviral, much less success when used late in the disease course. Even so, it has
demonstrated significant benefit in large hospital studies in
Michigan and New York City
when started within the first 24
to 48 hours after admission.
In fact, as inexpensive, oral and
widely available medications,
and a nutritional supplement,
the combination of hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin
or doxycycline, and zinc are
well-suited for early treatment
in the outpatient setting. The
combination should be prescribed in high-risk patients
immediately upon clinical suspicion of COVID-19 disease,
without waiting for results
of testing. Delays in waiting
before starting the medications
can reduce their efficacy.
Third, concerns have been
raised by the FDA and others
about risks of cardiac arrhythmia, especially when hydroxychloroquine is given in combination with azithromycin. The
FDA based its comments on
data in its FDA Adverse Event
Reporting System. This reporting system captured up to a
thousand cases of arrhythmias
attributed to hydroxychloroquine use. In fact, the number
is likely higher than that, since
the reporting system, which
requires physicians or patients
to initiate contact with the
FDA, appreciably undercounts
drug side effects.
But what the FDA did not
announce is that these adverse
events were generated from
tens of millions of patient uses
of hydroxychloroquine for long
periods of time, often for the
chronic treatment of lupus or
rheumatoid arthritis. Even if
the true rates of arrhythmia
are ten-fold higher than those
reported, the harms would be
minuscule compared to the
mortality occurring right now
in inadequately treated highrisk COVID-19 patients. This
fact is proven by an Oxford
University study of more than
320,000 older patients taking
both
hydroxychloroquine
and azithromycin, who had
arrhythmia excess death rates
of less than 9/100,000 users, as
I discuss in my May 27 paper
cited above. A new paper in
the American Journal of
Medicine by established cardiologists around the world fully
agrees with this.
In the future, I believe this
misbegotten episode regarding hydroxychloroquine will
be studied by sociologists of
medicine as a classic example
of how extra-scientific factors
overrode clear-cut medical
evidence. But for now, reality
demands a clear, scientific eye
on the evidence and where it
points. For the sake of highrisk patients, for the sake of
our parents and grandparents,
for the sake of the unemployed,
for our economy and for our
polity, especially those disproportionally affected, we must
start treating immediately.

The Kansas State Fair is
adding an open class and a 4-H
poultry show to its schedule
of livestock events slated for
September.
The show will take place
Saturday, Sept. 5.
While there will not be a
2020 Kansas State Fair, fair
officials announced in mid-July they would continue to have
livestock shows in an effort to
showcase the months of hard
work and determination of
both Kansas youth and openclass exhibitors. Poultry will be
added to the species of animals
to be exhibited.
The Special Edition livestock show will be spread across
three weekends starting Sept. 4.
Event rules have been modified
to maintain a safe environment.
The 2020 revised livestock
schedule includes:
Sept. 4-6: Open class poultry,
swine, boer goats and sheep; 4-H
poultry.
Sept. 11-13: Kansas State Fair
Grand Drive, a premier 4-H and
FFA livestock show sponsored
by Midwest Ford; Wild Horse
Youth Challenge.
Sept. 18-19: Open cattle and
dairy shows, 4-H horse show.
The 2020 schedule features
events Fair staff can execute
safely while still maintaining a quality show, said Jenn
Galloway, the Fairs compet-
itive exhibits director. She
added the Fair has implemented
preventative measures and is
following all state and federal
guidelines.
Among the guidelines:
Masks are recommended if
visitors cant maintain physical
distance.
There will be no standing or
congregating by the ring – exhibitors and their family should sit
in the bleachers or watch the
show via Walton Webcasting.
The event is private.
Exhibitors must purchase
wristbands to enter barns.
Registration for all openclass shows and 4-H poultry

At the core of the issue is
whether or not hydroxychloroquine mixed with zinc and
other commonly available
drugs is effective against the
disease. Opponents cite studies that are either inconclusive or which they say show
no impact on infections.
But other physicians like
Harvey Risch, professor of
epidemiology at Yale School
of Public Health, say numerous studies point to its success and safety. An editorial
by Risch appears in todays
Review.
Also clouding the debate
is speculation that hydroxychloroquine, if accepted as a
mainstream and widespread
treatment, would displace
more expensive drugs being
developed by big pharmaceutical companies that
promise a huge payoff.
Hydroxychloroqine, used
in the past to treat malaria
from mosquito bites, costs
about $150 for 60 tablets.
Gilead Sciences Inc., the
maker of proposed Covid
treatment Remdezivir, told
the Wall Street Journal in
late June the drug would
cost the typical patient over
$3,000.
After President Donald
Trump announced he was
taking a regimen of hydroxychloroquine in May, Gileads
stock dropped nearly 18 percent to $69 on Friday, its lowest level since late March.

No one was injured Friday when two fishermen were attempting to jump start a boat at the Cedar Valley Reservoir and ended up putting
the truck and boat trailer in the lake. Darrin Holstine said he mistakenly pulled the brake release instead of the hood release on a truck
owned by Mae Lynn Dupreee of Olathe. Holstines fishing companion DaRay Smith helped pull Holstine from the sinking vehicle.
Ads that work, ads that dont
Ive seen advertising that works
and advertising that doesnt work.
But as a business owner or manager how do you start out with a
better-than average bet that the
advertising youre getting ready to
do is going to work?
It doesnt matter where you
advertise Facebook, local radio,
the newspaper, billboards, a sign
stuck in your yard the success of
your advertising depends on how
you approach a handful of basic
business principles.
What do you want? What do
you want your advertising to do?
Do you want customers to flock
into your store to a heavy discount clearance sale? Do you want
your advertising to establish a
brand identity for your business
to build long-term customers (like
McDonalds)? Do you want to create good will? Do you want some
kind of combination of the above?
Prioritize your expectations and
understand your own objectives.
The market: Whos the customer for your product or service and
why do they want it? Is it a big general market with lots of customers
in it like for groceries or gasoline,
or is it a narrow market with few
customers like the one for prosthetics? In short, who buys what
youre selling, and why?
The competition: Who is your
competition and what is their
approach? What advantage do you
have over your competitor (price,
expertise, location, convenience,
testimonials from satisfied cus-

tomers) that you can maximize,
and what disadvantages do you
have that you need to minimize?
Budget: Whats it worth to capture the customers and sales you
want your advertising to generate? A new customer for an auto
mechanic, for instance, will be
worth hundreds, probably even
thousands of dollars in service
work over time if the relationship
stays positive. Is that worth $50 in
advertising? $1,000? Your budget
is obviously contingent on what
you can afford, but you also need
to consider what you realistically
expect the investment to return in
terms of dollars/profit.
Attention: So you know your
objectives and your budget and
your customers and you know
where you rank with the competition now, what gets the attention
of your target customers? Are they
driving down the highway passing billboards and listening to the
radio? Are they sitting down with
a cup of coffee reading the paper?
Are they 16 years old with their
noses stuck in their smart phones?
Wherever your customer has his/
her attention thats where your
ad should be.
Benefit: Craft your ad with a
benefit for the customer in mind.
If youre a lawyer, simply putting
your name or your firm name on a
billboard is a snoozer but a headline that says Learn the three biggest mistakes men make in divorce
call Joe Blow attorney that has
more impact to a defined market.
Once you work through those
foundational aspects, youll have
advertising that really buys results
instead of being ignored.

Cont – The Skinning Tree A novel by G. Dane Hicks
Due to social distancing directives in view of the present Covid19
emergency and the fact that many
Review readers are sequestering to varying degrees in their
homes and looking for reading
materials among ways to pass the
time, we are publishing segments
of Review publisher Dane Hicks
2003 novel The Skinning Tree
(Began March 24) over the course
of the next several weeks.
Chapter 8 Cont
*picking up from where left on from
July 21st edition
Steph rocked a little side to
side under her mothers pressure, her face still distant. The
ringing of the phone grabbed
their attention, and Mary skittered to answer it. Steph locked
her attention on her mom. Maybe
it was Sasha? Maybe her folks
had some word on her? Mary
suddenly squealed with laughter.
Yes baby, we were just
talking about you, she gushed.
A jacuzzi? Omigod, thats fantastic! Yes, yes, bring it down
we can set up right in the back
yard!
Steph looked away to the
kitchen window, and caught a
glimpse of the every Thursday
twosome of junior high schoolaged paper boys, each zipping
down the sidewalk on opposite
sides of the street, the frames
of their mountain bikes rattling
every now and then upon the
uneven humps of sidewalk as
they barked challenges back and
forth across the thoroughfare to
each other. Amid the chaos of
the rattles and bangs and shouts
of the two competitors, each convinced he could finish his route
faster than the other, rolled up
copies of the Sentinel made gentle, graceful arcs over yards of
new spring grass, landing with
amazing accuracy on porches or
front steps with the soft
thwack of thirty pages
of hometown news.
A quick, jerky creak
whispered from Otis
desk chair as he leaned
forward and peered into
the computer screen,
squinting to make sure
the pulsing cursor had
moved to the next information field of the standard accident report program. The afternoon sun
made it hard to see the
screen at the desk where
the computer sat. Would
make sense to move it
to the other side of the
room, but nobody every
listened to Otis.
He was the only one in
the office, which wasnt
rare, but the phone
hadnt rung in almost
twenty minutes, which
was. Except for the tapping of
his fingers on the keyboard and
the occasional chatter from the
police radio closer to the front of
the office, an odd peace seemed
to reign over the squad room.
Otis had just noticed it when the
sound of a woman arguing some
distant point of contention began
to arise from outside, the sound
broken only by the clanging of
the old storm door on the outside
of the building.
Why dont they ever figure
the mail dont always come
on Monday like sometimes
theres a Monday holiday like
Columbus Day or something?
Pammy whined nervously, her
hands gyrating back and forth
with her conversation. How you
sposed to know they want you
in court if the mail dont come?
She wore a pair of cutoff blue
jean shorts and a white t-shirt.
Walker followed her into the
office, his boots falling heavy on
the old floor as if to announce his
arrival. He picked up a frayed
cardboard box and held it toward
her, into which she flopped a
dirty white purse, a tiny wad
of cash pulled from the front of
her shorts and a couple of coins.
She tossed her head and sneered
defiantly at him as he put the
box on the other side of the
desk and motioned her around
the little swinging door into
the squad room. She sat in the
chair he pointed to. Otis looked
up, his eyes darting within his
bony face. He sat more erect as
if he were about to be addressed,
though nobody spoke to him.
So, wheres your ex these
days?, Bo said, slumping into
his chair with a rumble of creaking leather, wood and the thick
mass of his body. Pammys eyes
were wide and the muscles in
her jaws protruded slightly, flex-
ing in response to the adrenaline surging through her from
the meth shed smoked four
hours before. She squirmed
in an apparent effort to sit up
straighter in the chair, and at
the mention of her ex-husbands
name her reddened, bony hands
started a revolving path between
clenching in her lap and fiddling
with her hair.
This about Monte, or this
about them bad checks?, she
said, her voice flip for the benefit
of Otis, who she knew was within
earshot. Walkers voice wasnt
shielded; it was as though he
didnt know Otis was in the same
room.
Well, everything ends up
back with Monte at some point,
dont it?
Pammys eyes appeared to
escape the nervous movements of
her body, and for a second, they
locked on Bo. She glanced to and
from Otis, who had turned back
to his computer and pretended
to be absorbed in it. Her hair fell
forward across her face a little
as she leaned toward Bo. She
tried to remember if shed put on
any makeup today. I aint seen
him, her voice was low, a verbal
massage aimed at a reward. You
know if I knew anything, Id tell
you, baby. You didnt have to
haul me in here like this. You
know that. Walkers face was
sullen, unmoved. He leaned forward, a bare few inches now separating their faces.
Except you didnt show up
in court on them checks, and
now I gotta put you in jail, he
shook his head slightly. Pammy
pouted, leaning further forward.
She knew female prisoners were
a pain in the ass for the department. The old jail had nowhere
to keep women where they were

male prisoners, a requirement
under the state penal code, so the
county had to pay to have them
shipped off to a better facility,
usually up to Topeka. They were
both thinking the same thing.
Bos eyes ran across her thin,
delicate body. The t-shirt sagged
on her. You want me to try to
get you over to the judge today?
Her eyes met his and then
looked down. She forced a smile
to her mouth as she nodded her
head, but the smile wouldnt
stay long. Bo sat for a few sec-
onds, the sense that he had such
control over her life mounting
inside him. He stood, motioning
to her, and she led the way to
Bookmans office. The door shut
behind them, and Purvey heard
the doors old iron lock click. He
sat there for a second in a futile
attempt to hear anything that
could make it through the old
oak door. He stood, paused another second, then tip-toed to Bos
desk. In the bottom drawer was

Cont – The Skinning Tree A novel by G. Dane Hicks
SKINNING…
FROM PAGE 2B
the little digital radio/recorder,
still tuned to the right frequency.
Purvey left the machine in the
drawer, but bent forward to slip
on the headphones.
Were going to go up to the
judge and youre going to get this
squared away on them checks.
Why are you messin with my
stuff when you can get Monte?
Dang it Bo, hes a criminal, and
hes got my babies.
I told you, you get me something, Ill take him down, Bo
said with a theatrical shrug. He
moved, quietly for him, to the
side window behind Bookmans
desk to turn a tiny wooden handle hanging by the glass. Tiny
wisps of dust came out of the fabric hinges on the venetian blinds
as they squeezed shut, and the
room took on a reddish tint in
the absence of the full sunlight.
You got to have evidence, Pam.
Evidence is proof. And you just
saying it dont make it proof.
He turned back toward her and
clamped his vice-like hand on
her thin hip.
My understanding was they
were sending the body back to
Mexico, Reverend Tinney said
in a low, level voice into the telephone as he sat at his desk in the
church office. She was Catholic,
and I think Father Thompson
over at Our Lady is planning a
memorial service Saturday for
some of the people around here
who knew her. No, she was actually from Mexico, but she was a
sweet girl. A lot of Margies regulars were very attached to her.
Pushed to a side wall away
from Tinneys desk was a small
writing table where Lara sat, her
ballpoint pen grinding gently as
she wrote out the last of three
checks from a faded brown business check ledger. Shaking herself alert, she grimaced on the
realization shed written the City
of Henrysville on the amount
line, and attempted to cross out
the error until she gave up at the
sloppiness of it all, and ripped
the check from the book and into
pieces. The office was small and
stacked high with loaded bookshelves, outdated but well-maintained wallpaper climbing above
the cases, past the iron frames of
the old gas lamp jets which had
been left in the wall for decoration after electricity had been
wired into the building in the
1920s. High above was a painted
wood slat ceiling with an ancient
iron hanging light fixture poised
over the center of the room. The
carpeted floor and the fabric covers of so many books worked to
soften the sounds of the room.
But even though her back was
to her husband, Lara, distracted
now even from the correction
on the check she needed to write
over again, heard the plastic
handset of the phone fall back
into the cradle.
Alvin Ross, her husband
answered the unspoken ques-
tion, his head ducking back
into a large opened Bible setting
before him on the desk next to
a yellow note pad half covered
with scribbles. Wondering if
there were going to be services
for the Sanchez girl.
Lara barely noted what he
said. Shed started the next check
but stopped mid stroke, gazing at
the tiny brass handle on one of
the little shelves in the writing
table. She sat there, her body
held in a relaxed fatigue, her
mind straying far from the vision
of the reflecting brass.
The tug-o-war of contradiction consumed her. She had no
appetite, no concentration, and
only when the exhaustion overcame her in the early morning
hours could she find the respite
of sleep. It was as though her
heart was clenched in a fist, and
the more she thought about it
the more guilty she felt, and the
sadder she became.
Shed seen only passing glances of Israel for the past two days.
Hed been rising and leaving
early, before the Tinneys stirred
around six oclock, and according to Ida Simmons had taken up
with a couple of men on the crew
who were regulars at The Ace
& Deuce, a rough-shod tavern
and pool hall on the highway
north of town, which accounted for Tenders evening hours
from dinner time until after the
Tinneys retired. The Reverend
had noticed and said nothing.
Lara had noticed, and felt the
agony and guilt brought on by
seeing him, even if only from the
upstairs bathroom window as he
walked from the house to work,
and the painful denial of the longing for him when he was gone.
Shed tried praying, but the
truth was that for a woman married to a man of the cloth she
prayed very little, fearing most
of her life that a dialogue with
God would somehow require the
explanation of her life and her
deeds. Her cowardice forbade her
faith, though she had for years
gone through the motions to
sooth the fears of her husband.
His words brought no comment from her not even a subtle
motion or exhalation of agreement. The silence caught his
attention, and he drew himself
away from his notes to seize her
with his eyes. She stayed motionless for several seconds under his
gaze, and from his vantage point
he could see her left eye fixed
into its trance-like gaze.
Lara? His baritone was low
and comfortable. At its sound she
bolted from the daze, her eyes
skittering across the documents
in front of her to find her place.
Yes.
Love, is there something
wrong?
Her memory found the line
on the check, and she began to
finish it. No, hon, of course not.
Tinney paused, turning
toward her, his eyes blending
concern as he fixed his eyes on
her back. You seem out of sorts
lately. What is it?
How do you mean?, Lara
tossed her head lightly. Her eyes,
now hidden from him darted
back and forth over the writing
table without fixing. His voice
was soft and low, but probing,
the way shed overheard him
before in counseling sessions
with members of the flock and
sometimes near total strangers.
You just seem burdened
somehow. Youre distant. Just
now you were a million miles
away. You never forget things,
but Tuesday you lost the keys to
the van twice. Yesterday you forgot what time we were making
the hospital visits. He rose and
took the single step toward her,
placing his massive hands on her
shoulders and rubbing gently.
Youre just not yourself.
She countered by raising her
hand to his and patting it with
feigned appreciation. Her mind
raced for something, bending
double inside her around the
nonsensical mass of thought that
seemed to leap out of her every
time she opened her mouth since
Monday. From the window the
blur of the paper boy on his bike,
leaning opposite to balance the
weight of the canvas sack slung
over his shoulder, its bulk resting on his hip as he passed the
church, focused her thought. She
let loose a long and honest sigh,
and followed with a lie of convenience.
I dont know, hon. Maybe Im
just tired. Maybe everythings
just catching up with me, she
confessed, shaking her head.
Those poor girls were so young.
3B
How could something like that
happen? How could it happen
here? That kind of evil just
doesnt seem possible.
Tinney pulled slightly at the
sideburn of his great, graying
beard. He paused, still stroking
her with his other hand, and followed with an even softer but
resonant tone.
We always have somewhere to go, Love. Somewhere,
to someone who can lighten us
and enlighten us. The ultimate
sincerity in his voice smashed
head on into the deceit that Lara
guarded within her. Tears started to well in her eyes as he began
to pray out loud, his hands firm
upon her in their attempt at comfort, his voice soft and low.
There are a lot of different
types of roses, sheriff, Edward
Raskes gaze was suspicious
as he looked across the table
at Bookman and KBI agent
Fromme. The drab paneling of
the sheriffs office conference
room was dotted here and there
by discoloration and the occasional scuff mark. Both officers
had yellow legal pads in front of
them and pens in their hands. Bo
Walker sat at the end of the table,
his arms folded and pressing his
massive forearms forward over
his chest. The legs of his chair
creaked as he leaned back in it
and stared stonefaced at Raske.

Think safety first when
canning food at home
Americans have been canning foods at home for more
than 100 years. Yet still, says
Kansas State University
food safety specialist Karen
Blakeslee, theres always something new to learn.
There are many older
methods that are not safe to
use, Blakeslee said. So, its
important to stay up to date.
There are a variety of mistakes that can lead to serious
food safety problems when preserving food at home by canning. A vast majority of canning or sealing failures are due
to user error. Just because the
jar is sealed, that doesnt mean
the food is safe.
Some common mistakes that
Blakeslee listed include:
Following old and unsafe
recipes, some of which may
have been passed down through
generations of families.
Following recipes that have
not been tested and approved,
or adhere to current USDA
guidelines. The Internet is full
of untested and unapproved
recipes.
Using an incorrect jar size.
Using improper processing
methods.
Storing food in an unsafe
location, such as a place where
it is too hot, cold or moist.
Adjusting the band too
tightly.
Not adjusting processing
times for altitude.
Blakeslee, coordinator of
K-States Rapid Response
Center for Food Safety, maintains a website, Preserve it
Fresh, Preserve it Safe, with
current guidelines for canning.
In canning, the goal is to
produce a safe product and
reduce risks of botulism,
Blakeslee said. Instances of
botulism occur most often in
home canned foods. Before canning any food, be sure to have
all equipment ready to go.
Some examples of preparing for home canning include
examining canning jars so

Blakeslee said local offices
can test four brands: National,
Presto, Magic Seal and Maid of
Honor pressure canners.
Be sure that canning equipment is maintained and ready
to use, Blakeslee said. Use
the correct processing method
for the type of food. Water bath
canning (a lower-temperature
process) will safely process
high acid foods, such as jelly
and fruit. Pressure canning
(temperatures of 240 degrees
Fahrenheit or higher) must be
used for plain vegetables and
all meats.
Along with using the correct processing method, be
sure to adjust processing for
your elevation, she added.
More information can be found
in the publication, Whats Your
Elevation.
