Second Saturdays
offers $200 jackpot
Next Second Saturday event brings
turtle races, sidewalk sales,
scavenger hunt, $200 in gold
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The pot has grown to $200 in
gold coins for this weekends Second Saturday
event in downtown Garnett, along with turtle
races, kids games, sidewalk sales, a scavenger
hunt and live music.
Its the fourth in a continuing series of second Saturday of the month promotions organized through Garnetts Creative Business
Partnerships Committee, combined of local
chamber of commerce and city staff as well as
private business leaders. Committee chairman
Tami Hiestand said the objective is simple.
The idea is to get some fun things rolling
on a regular basis in town, Hiestand said.
Whether its downtown or out on the highway
strip, we want to generate some energy among
businesses and people who live here or visit
here that, hey, theres something cool happening in Garnett on those Second Saturdays.
So far events have offered music and art
combined with business promotions to provide
a festive, social atmosphere that has something for persons of any age. This Saturdays
event will add kids games and turtle races.
Hiestand said theyre looking for ideas and
participation from anyone whos interested in
taking part.
And the payoff will be big for shoppers who
participate in the Golden Ticket Giveaway.
Participating merchants have Golden Tickets
(see promotion brochures for lists of sponsors) which shoppers can obtain when visiting
those sponsors. Winners must be present at 5
p.m. when the winning ticket will be drawn at
the courthouse.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT At least two
Garnett businesses got suspicious visits by President
Andrew Jackson last week, and
theyre out $20 apiece from the
possibly bogus currency.
Garnett Police Chief Kevin
PeKarek confirmed last week
two businesses
on Garnetts
Highway 59
strip received
what
are
believed
to
be fake $20
bills within a
few minutes
of each other.
One of the
businesses caught on to the
possible ruse early enough to
get a license tag number, but
PeKarek said charging a crime
in the matter takes more time.
We have to send them off (to
the U.S. Treasury Department)
to make sure theyre really
fake, he said. Otherwise, we
dont have an actual crime.
The incidents were part of
several reported around Kansas
in the latter days of July. A
number of fake 20s and at least
one fake $100 bill was discovered in Salina, and a Burger
King in Great Bend turned in
three suspicious $100 bills mid
week.
Unfortunately a business
which takes a counterfeit bill
has to eat the transaction.
Theres no refund through the
U.S. Treasury for taking counterfeit money, and any business that deposits counterfeit
money in a bank or otherwise
passes it can become involved
in the criminal act as well.
The local incidents arise on
the heels of various changes to
U.S. currency in recent years to
counteract higher technology
counterfeiters. The U.S. $100
bill was last redesigned just last
year with more intricate markings, inks and watermarks to
make it harder to fake.

Officials say lower denomination bills like 10s and 20s are
often faked by less high-tech
counterfeiters and are easier
to spot, but Royal Canadian
Mounted Police earlier this
year arrested a Canadian forger who produced some of the
best fake $20 bills investigators
had ever seen after acquiring
special inks, paper and printing equipment. That forger
produced some $250 million in
fake bills and sold them to organized crime operations, which
later distributed them. Some of
those bills ended up on the east
coast of the U.S. earlier this
summer, and may have made
their way across the country.

ACHS grads start designated driver service
charges have driven the market
High cost of DUI charge for similar services, such as
makes driving service SoberSam, Safe-T-Ride USA on
the east coast and BeMyDD,
a lucrative business which operates pick up services
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Two enterprising
ACHS graduates have started
a local business aimed at keeping drunk drivers off the roads
and getting both them and their
vehicles home safely, and they
plan to take the franchise north
when they head to area colleges
this fall.
Spencer and Codys DD
Service was the brainchild
of Spencer Walter and Cody
Gettler, both members of the
ACHS class of 2014, and yielded
from an evening cruise with a
group of friends, Gettler said.
We came up with the idea
while we were driving around
one night, he said. Everybody
else thought it was a joke, but
Spencer and I were serious.
The idea is pretty simple:
If youre at a local bar or private party or other place
where alcohols being served
and you know youve had too
much to drive, you just place
a cell phone call for the service. Gettler and Walter drive
to your location, one of them
drives you home and the other
follows in your vehicle. In just
a few short months, they say
business is booming.
The high costs of DUI
in multiple states and even provides a designated driver for
the trip if a traveling party so
desires. With first-time, noninjury, non-property damage
DUIs or diversions costing
$5,000-$8,000, not to mention the
possibility of harming oneself
or others, a few bucks for a DD
is a solid investment.
Starting the business was as
easy as printing some business
cards and posters and distributing them at local bars and
setting up a Facebook page
that shared the idea by modern word of mouth. Soon, the
phone started ringing.
After two months, Gettler
said some people will call ahead
to pre-arrange their nights-end
transportation.
Other services charge a flat
pick up fee in the range of $25$30 with additional mileage.
Gettler said their operation just
works on tips.
Its better when there are
several people in the car,
Gettler said. Everybody sort
of chips in. He noted a short
drive for three customers home
from one area bar recently garnered a tip of $50.
Gettler, who will attend the
University of Kansas this year,
said the plan is for the two to

RECORD
ANDERSON COUNTY BOARD OF
COMMISSIONER JULY 21
Chairman James K. Johnson called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Commission to order at 9:00 a.m. on
July 21 at the County Commission
Room. Attendance: James K. Johnson,
Present: Eugene Highberger, Present:
Jerry Howarter, Present. The pledge
of allegiance was recited. Minutes of
the previous meeting were approved as
presented.
Courthouse Roof
Commissioner Highberger moved to
hire Mid Continental Restoration to seal
and caulk the courthouse roof, flagpole
base, and tower windows at a cost of
$5,324.00 out of Courthouse General.
Commissioner Howarter seconded.
Approved 3-0.
Welda Sewer
Tom Young, Welda Sewer Operator,
met with the commission. He is planning
on going to a school in Burlington on
August 21. There is an individual who
works for the road department that might
be interested in going to the schooling
and would then work as a backup for
Tom. Tom questioned if the commission would approve covering the wages
for the road department employee.
Commission approved.
Solid Waste
Scott Garrett, Solid Waste Supervisor,
met with the commission. He presented
his 2015 budget request and explained
his expected needs. He informed the
commission he had a farmer bring a
large quantity of chemicals to the HHW
facility. He questioned if he is supposed
to take chemicals from farmers as we
do not take things from businesses and
farming is a business. Commission recommend checking with other counties to
see what they do.
Neighborhood Revitalization
Commissioner Howarter moved to
adopt Resolution 2014,0721:1 adopting the City of Garnett Neighborhood
Revitalization program. Commissioner
Johnson seconded. Commissioner
Highberger stated he felt it was not
fair to the citizens of the county who
still have to pay the taxes on their
properties if they do any improvements.
Commissioner Johnson stated he did not
have a problem with the revitalization
program as it was originally designed but
was opposed to it being city wide. Vote
taken. Vote failed 1-2 with Commissioner
Howarter in favor and Commissioners
Highberger and Johnson opposed.
Hospital Financing
David Arteberry, George K. Baum,
met with the commission. He explained
the money needed to fund the bond payments is dependent on the hospital making $85,000 payments each month starting when they take possession. If the
hospital does not take occupancy until
January they will be one month behind
what was projected and the county will
have to budget for an extra $85,000 in
their payment. The payments that were
made this year were from county funds
and the rest from bond proceeds that
were included in the proposal.
Meeting adjourned at 11:45 a.m. due
to no further business.

BILLS…
FROM PAGE 1A
in high-tech forgery of U.S.
$100 bills, primarily in a system
designed to procure commodities and goods and to otherwise
use in international trade.
PeKarek said special detector pens used by businesses to
test higher denomination bills
can give erroneous results as
much as 50 percent of the time,
sometimes giving false positives for legitimate bills. The
only sure way to detect fakes is
to turn them in to the treasury
department, he said.
A counterfeit bills texture
will often feel different from
authentic money, because real
money is made from paper with
cotton and linen fibers which
differs greatly from standard
paper made from wood pulp.
Normal paper becomes torn
and soft when worn. Real currency has raised ink and detect-
able ridges over the portraits
vest of the bill. Genuine money
is also usually thinner than
fake money.
Treasury officials say if you
think someone has passed you
a fake bill, dont take any action
that may endanger you, but try
to detain the person as long as
possible until police arrive. If
thats not possible, get a good
description of the person and
anyone with him/her and vehicle description with license tag.
Do not give the bill back to the
person who used it.
Dont touch a counterfeit
bill any more than necessary
to limit possibly smudging
fresh fingerprints on it. Write
your initials and the date in the
white margin and then put the
bill in an envelope or plastic
bag. Its evidence in a crime
and should be treated as such.
Then contact local police or the
regional FBI or treasury office.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, August 5, 2014
EDITORIAL
DCF data relays a mystery
Somethings just not right in a recent
report from the Kansas Health Institute
that the states now seeing its highest
level of children ever in state custody
due to abuse and neglect.
Also at record levels are the sheer
numbers of complaints of abuse and
neglect but heres the rub. Oddly
less than 10 percent of these claims
are generally substantiated by state
Department for Children and Families
workers. That means over 90 percent of
such claims are never proven.
Why is that? Are those reporting
these acts lying? Is there little to no
evidence to substantiate? Are there not
enough investigators, or are they just
lazy? Are they ignoring legitimate cases
of abuse and neglect out of some nonsensical allegiance to the idea that a kid is
better off left in an abusive home than a
foster home?
There are questions, indeed.
If a claim isnt substantiated through
any of varying levels of investigation,
no charges are ever filed by local county
or district attorneys who make the decision to pursue such matters in court. In
addition, its not necessary to substantiate a claim in order for DCF to remove a
child from his/her home which opens a
whole other set of questions as well.
To put it in perspective, the report
said at the beginning of June 2014 about
7,000 kids in Kansas were in the custody
of DCF about 6,200 of those placed in
foster homes, for which host foster families are reimbursed state funds for serving as a safe place for a kid in trouble.
According to the report DCF investigated 32,130 complaints and 93 percent
were unsubstantiated in FY 2013. Reports
totaled 26,543 in FY 2009. Through the
first 11 months of 2014 the department
had taken over 33,052 complaints for
investigation. Of the complaints this year
nearly 30,000 had been declared unsubstantiated.
So it boils down to this: 1) Mandatory
reporters (social and health care workers, educators, police, etc., who are under
a legal requirement to report signs of
abuse that they observe) as well as other
voluntary reporters are shot-gunning the
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
system with record numbers of reports
of child abuse and neglect topping in
the tens of thousands each year; 2) For
whatever reason, more than 90 percent
of those are never substantiated.
Amid that data are the heartbreaking anecdotes of children left in abusive
homes until their deaths and of those
who die due to abuse or neglect within
the foster homes where theyre placed.
Last week a 29 year-old foster father
in Wichita left his 10-month old foster
daughter (one of six foster kids ranging
in age from 10 months to 18 years living in the home) strapped in a car seat
in a vehicle, windows rolled up, for 2 12
hours until something he saw on TV
reminded him she was unaccounted for.
Temperatures that day in Wichita hit 90
degrees. He faces first degree murder
charges.
In other cases DCF workers clearly
miss evidence over the long haul, such
as when a 14 year-old girl in Wichita who
weighed 66 pounds was removed from
her home after nine reports of neglect
and abuse. Eight of those prior reports
were determined unsubstantiated.
The appearance is of a system which
wildly flails itself at problems in an
effort to secure children, but is either
wildly overzealous or wildly incompetent or flat out unable to substantiate
more of the allegations. Meanwhile,
some kids slip through the net on either
side of enforcement.
And they are why this report heralds
a tragedy.

One hell of a foray into Hamas territory
If an Israeli high-level official were
caught on a hot mic candidly commenting on Secretary of State John
Kerrys ill-fated act of Israel-Hamas
peacemaking, he might call it a hell
of a diplomatic foray.
Kerry was caught sarcastically
describing the Israeli offensive into
Gaza as a hell of a pinpoint operation during his round of Sundayshow interviews two weeks ago,
before telling his aide over the phone,
Weve got to get over there, and Its
crazy to be sitting around.
Kerrys belief in himself as the
Indispensable Man is touchingly
quaint. His conception of the U.S.
secretary of state is apparently frozen in a time when it was a position
of unparalleled power and respect.
Those days are gone.
Or as President Barack Obama
might quip, to paraphrase his putdown of Mitt Romneys foreign-policy
views during one of the 2012 presidential debates, John, the 1980s want
their secretary of state back.
After six years of resetting, leading
from behind, ending wars, nation
building at home and pivoting to Asia,
the U.S. has reduced itself to a husk
of its former influence. When Kerry
showed up in Cairo to meet with the
president of Egypt, he was wanded by
the guards, as if he had just wandered
in from the airport security line.
Kerry underlined his dubious rel-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
evance by his inability to secure a
cease-fire, and his dubious wisdom
by making it his overarching goal. At
this point, after Israel has committed
itself on the ground, the U.S. should
be seeking to give it the time it needs
to do as much damage as possible
to Hamas military infrastructure,
instead of effectively bailing out the
terror group.
By the time Kerry returned home,
he had been showered with so much
criticism by the Israelis that the
U.S. government was saying it could
endanger our relationship. The question raised by Obama administration
foreign policy again and again is, How
can self-styled Smart Power be so
dumb and toothless?
For all of Kerrys failings, he is a
relative giant among a foreign-policy
team composed largely of political
hacks and post-American declin-
ists. At least Kerry retains some of
the old Democratic Party belief in
Americas importance in the world.
His condemnation of Syrias use of
chemical weapons last year was a stirring moral indictment of the Assad
regime — although President Obama
immediately undercut him when he
abandoned his own red lines.
So far, Kerrys tenure as secretary
of state is making Hillary Clintons
undistinguished stint look impressive
by comparison. But thats mostly a
matter of timing. It is his misfortune
to be present at the unraveling, as
crisis after crisis unfolds, with the
administration lacking the interest or
the tough-mindedness to effectively
respond.
It is impossible to find anywhere in
the world where our position or alliances are stronger than they were six
years ago.
One hopeful theory about Obama
foreign policy was that, after serial
humiliations and failures, it would
recalibrate toward more assertiveness, like Jimmy Carter did after the
Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. But
he seems content with Americas new
status in the world. John Kerry will
just have to get used to it.

Candidate planting still Dem scheme, woman says
Dear Anderson County Review,
During the last several weeks
the Kansas Values Institute, a
(c)(4) group based in Topeka, has
been sending tens of thousands
of dollars of mail
on behalf of candidates in the
Republican primary. Who is this
conservative-sounding group?
Kansas Values Institute chair
Dan Watkins, has been a longtime Democrat activist and was
the senior adviser for the Obama
campaign in Kansas according to
an October 21st, 2009 Lawrence
Journal World story.
As Republicans across the
state head to the polls, I believe
it is critical they know that members of Obamas campaign team
are spending scores of thousands
of dollars to play
in our Republican
primaries.
In a January
14, 2003 article,
the Kansas City Star reported
that Dan Watkins was the wonder boy of Kansas Democratic
politics in the 1970s. Over the
years Watkins and his law firm
have given thousands of dollars to Democrat candidates and
action groups. In 2009, Watkins,
a Lawrence attorney, was in consideration as Obamas pick for US
Attorney for Kansas.
Although the Kansas Values
Institute is a (c)(4) so their expenditures are not public, they have
spent thousands of dollars in independent expenditures on behalf
of Republican primary candidates across Kansas. One of their
mailings lists several Republican
officeholders and states they have
earned an 100% Kansas Values
rating. This mailing prompted
the following Facebook post from
State Treasurer Ron Estes, It
has come to my attention that a
group calling itself the Kansas
Values Institute has used my
name in mailers that support one
primary opponent over another.
I was never contacted by this
group about their endorsement
and I disapprove of my name
being used, without my knowledge, in political tactics to garner
support for one Republican primary opponent over another.
Sincerely,
Helen VanEtten,
Topeka
Republican National
Committeewoman
know any better? Please, people, act like
you have some raising.
All right now, everybody. All the people
in Anderson County whove been calling The Phone Forum the last couple
of years and complaining because
there was no carnival and saying we
ought to do away with it or add it onto
the Kincaid Fair, here is your chance.
Theyve done exactly what you asked
them to do, now you need to get out to
the fair and spend some money and
show them youll put your money where
your mouth is. Dont be shy. Thank you.
Yes, I just wanted to make a point, its
going to be interesting to know, with
everyone saying were having such a
great crop year, the corn is doing great
and the wheat is doing great, its going
to be interesting to see if those higher
yields lower the prices, which Im sure
they will for the farmer. Lets just see if
the price of a box of cereal goes down
any at the grocery store, or the price
of your beef or your pork which has
doubled over the past year, lets see if
that goes down at the grocery store. Its
going to be very interesting to see when
the prices of our grains goes down if the
prices of our food go down. Thank you.

LOCAL
Governor proclaims August as
Farmers Market month in Kansas
TOPEKA Recognizing the vital
role local farmers markets like
the Garnett Farmers Market
play in promoting a growing
sector of the states agriculture
economy, Governor
Sam
Brownback
proclaimed August
as Farmers Market
Month in Kansas and
the week of August 3
– 9, as Farmers Market
Week.
Farmers markets
provide consumers
with access to fresh,
local foods and connect them with the farmers that
produce their food. Farmers
markets contribute to the local
economy of Kansas communities and can be instrumental in
building stronger small businesses.
Governor Brownback and
the Kansas Department of
Agriculture (KDA), Kansas
Department of Health and
Environment (KDHE) and
Department for Children and
Families (DCF) recognize the
importance of partnering with
farmers markets and helping

them be more successful as evidenced by enacting the Farmers
Markets Promotion Act, SB 120
in 2013.
Registered farmers markets have access to marketing,
outreach and advocacy efforts
through From the Land of
Kansas, the states agricultural
trademark program, and the
ability to receive benefits from
federal grant dollars awarded
to KDA on behalf of Kansas
farmers markets.
Farmers markets play an
important role in agricultural advocacy and rural
economic growth, said
Secretary of Agriculture
Jackie McClaskey. From
1987 to 2014, the number
of farmers markets in
Kansas increased from
26 to 130. As we see this
segment of agriculture
continue to grow in the
future, the Farmers
Market Promotion Act
enables the markets to expand
and be more successful as
Kansans take the opportunity
to purchase quality food directly from our farmers and growers.

Kansas Native and The Voice contestant,
Kaleigh Glanton to perform at State Fair
NBC Television The Voice
HUTCHINSON
Kaleigh
Glanton, a former Maize student
who appeared on NBCs The
Voice, is scheduled to perform
a free concert at the Bretz and
Young Injury Lawyers Arena at
the Kansas State Fair. Glanton
will take the stage Tuesday,
September 9 at 6:00 p.m.
Glanton grew up watching her
father play classical guitar and
at the age of four she expressed
interest in playing guitar. Later,
at age 15, Kaleigh discovered her
voice and her music shifted from
complex melodic and polyphonic
textile on guitar to using vocal
tonality and rhythm to chronical
life.
I describe my music as an
indie folk sound but honestly,
she says, I feel so free to explore
different variation of that. I know
Im going to continue growing as
a person and so will my art. Im
kind of afraid of this business
of music but, Im determined to
make it as an artist, and I have
been putting together a great
team to help me.
Kaleighs appearance on the
NBCs The Voice, where judges
listen to performers with their
backs turned and, if the judges
like what they hear, their chair
swivels around. All four judges
– Usher, Blake Shelton, Adam
Levine and Shakira turned for
Kaleigh. The contestants then
select a coach to mentor them on
the show; Glanton chose Blake
Shelton.
We are pleased Kaleigh will
be appearing at the Kansas State
Fair, states Denny Stoecklein,
Kansas State Fair General
Manager. We enjoy featuring Kansas talent and assisting young artists advance their

of meat processing and butchering. Keeping our prices as low as
possible for over 25 years. Slaughter fees are still only $35 per head

Moser, Secretary of KDHE. It
is our job to protect the health
and environment of Kansans,
and that job becomes particularly critical in times of disaster. As part of a five year cooperative agreement with HHS
and CDC for health preparedness, KDHE must demonstrate
a wide variety of health and
medical capabilities to reduce
a disasters impact on the state.
Demonstrating these capabilities alongside and in partnership with our response partners
helps everyone resolve potential problems and improve our
abilities.
Vigilant Guard gives us
the opportunity to test our
emergency response plans
and capabilities, and to practice integrating the response
efforts of civilian agencies and
the National Guard, as well as
to incorporate help from other
states and also federal entities,
said Kansas Adjutant General
Lee Tafanelli.
The Vigilant Guard exercise
will simulate multiple, largescale disasters hitting Kansas at
one time. These disasters may
include natural disasters, such
as tornados, flooding, fires and
may also include other disaster
events such as bioterrorism.

include: Sherry Benjamin, Rose Dennison, Kelly Elliott, Cherie Ingram, Becky King and Betty Penn.
The Chinese Restaurant was the setting for the Hyatt Social Club meeting on 7/17/14. Hostesses were Rose
Mary Turner, Janis Hightower and
Rose Dennison. Ten members enjoyed
the buffet. Hilda Lankard presented new business and it was decided
that because of the time constraints
we would not prepare a float for the
Anderson County Fair. A discussion
was opened for possibly doing something as a group and spend some of the
proceeds of the yard sale to offset the
cost of that social outing.
Ruth Ann McDonald guessed the
mystery gift, a tissue holder made by
Donna Hale. Donna Hale also made the
parting gifts of strawberry pin cushions
in the shape of strawberries. Mrs. Hale
was a longtime mmber of the Hyatt
Club, as well as her sisters and daughter, Mary Ann Turner. Seed packets
left over from the 100 year anniversary
party celebrated with a presentation at
the Historical Society on May 1 of this
year were also distributed.
Ruth Ann also won one of the hostess gifts, a cake carrier and candle.
Sherry Benjamin chose a matching set
of glasses and pitcher. Hilda Lankard
received the final hostess gift of a
Readers Digest book Off the Beaten
Path.
The next meeting is scheduled for
8/9/14 at Becky Kings home. Becky,
Diane Hastert and Betty Penn will be
the hostesses for breakfast. A road trip

Public warning made over blue-green algae in Kansas lakes
TOPEKA The Kansas
Department of Health and
Environment (KDHE) samples
publicly accessible bodies of
water for cyanobacteria, commonly called blue-green algae,
when the agency is alerted
to a potential algae bloom in
Kansas lakes. When harmful algal blooms are present,
KDHE, in cooperation with the
Kansas Department of Wildlife,
Parks and Tourism (KDWPT)
and other lake managers
where appropriate, responds by
informing the public of these
conditions.
KDWPT reminds visitors
that a lake under an Advisory
or Warning is not closed unless
officials deem it absolutely
necessary. Marinas, lakeside
businesses and park camping
facilities remain open for business, although swim beaches
may be closed. Park drinking
water and showers are safe
and not affected by the algae
bloom. It is generally safe to
boat and fish as long as contact
with the water is avoided. Also,
it is safe to eat fish caught during a harmful blue-green algae
outbreak, as long as consumers
clean and rinse the fish with
clean water; consume only the
fillet portion; and discard all
other parts. People should also
wash their hands with clean
water after handling fish taken
from an affected lake.
Kansans should be aware
that blooms are unpredictable. They can develop rapidly
and may float around the lake,
requiring visitors to exercise
their best judgment. If there
is scum, a paint-like surface,
or the water is bright green,
avoid contact and keep pets
away. These are indications
that a harmful bloom may be
present. KDHE and KDWPT
urge dog owners to be particularly mindful of the presence
of blue-green algae. Dogs that
swim in or drink water affected
by a harmful algal bloom or eat
dried algae along the shore may
become seriously ill or die.
Based upon sampling results
and established health risk levels, the following Warnings and
Advisories are in place.
Current warnings
& advisories
Public Health Warning: High
levels of toxic blue-green algae
have been detected. A Public
Health Warning indicates that
water conditions are unsafe and
direct water contact (wading,
skiing and swimming) should

When a Warning is issued,
KDHE recommends the following precautions be taken:
Humans, pets and livestock
do not drink lake water
Water contact should be
prohibited. Avoid swimming,
wading or other activities with
full body contact of lake water
Clean fish and rinse with
clean water, consume only the
fillet portion, and discard all
other parts
Do not allow pets to eat dried
algae
If lake water contacts skin
or pet fur, wash with clean
potable water as soon as possible
Avoid areas of visible algae
accumulation
Public Health Advisory:
Harmful blue-green algae have
been detected. A Public Health
Advisory indicates that a hazardous condition exists. Water
activities like boating and fishing may be safe; however, direct

Bill Kellerman was unable to
attend due to health reasons.
Others unable to attend were
Fred, George, Milo and Donnie
Kellerman. We had a total of 70

Tables were filled with lots
of food, leaving no one to go
hungry. After everyone finished
eating awards were handed out.
Loren Railsback, oldest; Martin
Castillo, youngest; David and
Edna Donovan, married the
longest; and Joey Kelly, traveled the farthest. Then to add
to all the fun a scavenger hunt
was enjoyed by the young and
the old. Several teams participated trying to find the 50
items on the list. The team
of Millie Cole, Connie Cole,
Crissie Gilmore, Joe Metzger
and Julie Young found 48 of the
items. A piata was hung for
the little ones to hit and once
opened up a bunch of candy
was retrieved by the children.
Taylor Hollingsworth won the
candy jar and Aaliyah Cole won
the bubble gum jar. What a fun
time for all.
After all the fun, and visiting, pictures were taken of
the families. Later everyone
departed to their destinations
and looked forward to the next
year with Ina Railsback and
family as the host. Next year

Know your rights
Public notices published in The
Anderson County Review are mandated by
state law to satisfy the vital governmental
function of providing information to the
public and the taxpayers. Laws like this
require that government must give due
notice to the citizenry in a generally circulated media any time that government or
certain other entities take action that will
or may affect members of the citizenry.
Instructions within these notices,
where applicable, instruct members of
the citizenry who may wish to protest
these actions of hearing dates, times and
locations and other details by which they
may become more informed of the process underway and involved as to petition
Government for a redress of grievances
as specified by the First Amendment to the
United States Constitution.
Citizens and taxpayers benefit from
the ready availability of these notices and
this information via generally-circulated
and officially-recognized local newspapers
of record which are publicly presented on
regular cycles of publication. Attempts by
government and its agents to curtail publication of these notices should be protested
as obvious attempts to restrict information
and avoid governmental accountability for
actions that affect the citizenry. Nominal
costs associated with these publications
are available by contacting The Anderson
County Review or the governmental office
listed on any specific notice.

Richmond UMW adds to fair with Open Doors
With Mary L. Hall greeting
visitors, explaining and offering
information amid friendship and
fellowship, the 11th annual Open
Doors at the Richmond United
Methodist Church was again a
success.
There were about 220 visitors, said Hall, who served glasses of cold water to folks who came
across the street to the church
from the Richmond Free Fair.
And, oh yes, there were nearly
30 displays of all kinds to enjoy
that were prepared by students to
oldsters, all meaningful to those
who created them and interesting
to those who viewed them.
Borrowing from the world-wide
motto of the United Methodist
Church — Open Minds, Open
Hearts, Open Doors — this activity is quite different from the
competition of the fair — its all

FAITH
Quench your thirst for spirituality with God
In John 4, the Samaritan
woman went back to her town
and said to the people, Come
see a man who told me everything I did. Could this be the
Christ?
The conversation between
the woman and Jesus revolved
around water. The womans
thought was to satisfy her
physical thirst. Jesus identified a deeper spiritual thirst
the woman had. In the conversation Jesus never mentioned
any way to satisfy her physical
thirst long term. He did explain
how to resolve the bigger problem she had, a spiritual thirst
for God.
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
Sometimes we have to identify for people their need for
God. Sometimes people get so
weighted down with problems
they cant see past them and
sometimes it is these very problems that bring them to Gods
doorstep. No matter what the
issue whether financial, work
related, some addiction or relational there is an underlying
problem. That problem is a
disconnect with God.
This woman says to Jesus;
I know that Messiah (called
Christ) is coming. When he
comes he will explain everything to us. (John 4:25) The
woman clearly understood that
the Messiah, called Christ, had
the solution to her problem.
She was convinced but not con-
verted.
In Psalm
32:8,
God
speaks
to
David and says;
I will instruct
you and teach
you in the way
you should go;
I will counsel you and
watch
over
you.
What
a wonderful
promise. The
only way we
are left alone
is if we choose
to be.
God
allows us to
create a mess
of our life and
he will allow
us to attempt
to live our life
without him.
However he
(God) will at
some
time
require us to
confront the
issues
that
are causing
the disconnect
with him. This
is what happened to the
woman. There
is no straddling the fence
with God. You
are with God or without God.
The path to salvation is very
narrow which is why it is not
appealing to people. In John
14:6 Jesus identifies the path
when he says to his disciples;
I am the way and the truth
and the life. No one comes to
the Father except through me.
Now what do we do with that
BY GRACE TOM-LAWYER
statement? No one can refute
the fact Jesus is who he said he
was nor can we disregard the
written word of God.
If we allow Jesus to reveal
himself to us, he will tell us as
he told the woman when she
said she knew the one called
Messiah was coming. Jesus
will declare to us as well, I
who speak to you am he.
Out of the whole passage the
woman speaks the most important words for us. Come see a
man.
David Bilderback: A Ministry
on the Holiness of God.
Turn your commute into a worship service Even you can
BY DENNIS MIRANDA
CHRISTIAN LIVING
Ill be honest with you
my morning commute is the
pits! And not because thats a
play on words since I work in
Pittsburgh. My round trip travel time to and from work can
total more than two hours on a
good day.
To make matters worse,
after I make my way out of
the quiet suburbs each morning the Parkway East can get
pretty hairy. Cars jockey for
position while they shift from
lane to lane as though drivers
are qualifying for the Indy 500.
However, once we approach
the Squirrel Hill tunnel its all
brake lights and bumpers for
miles and miles afterwards.
So whats a morning commuter like me to do in order
to keep his emotions in check
during the height of rush hour
traffic? Well, I could keep one
eye on the road while flipping
through my favorite magazine
like I often see other drivers do.
Or if I was of the female variety
I guess I could utilize that time
to put on my make up. Nah, if
Ive learned anything in this
life its to make the most of any
given situation in a responsible
manner of course and use it for
my own personal growth.
Here are 3 ways Ive discovered to best utilize the time of
my hourly commute in order
to keep my mind from going
insane and my heart continually aligned with Gods kingdom.
1. Set the radio. I set my dial
to 98.3 KLove Christian radio
every morning and as I bounce
on down along the highway I
squeeze in a few positive and
encouraging songs that lift up
my soul and prepare my heart
for worship.
2. Set the app. I have my
YouVersion Bible app preset to
the chapters I am studying for
that day. I then link my smart
phone to the Bluetooth audio
system in my vehicle and then
Im ready to roll! Being able to
listen to the Word ensures that
I will never miss my daily reading especially on busy mornings when I might be running
late for work.
3. Cue the sermon. After a
reading (or in this case a listening) from the Word I quickly
switch apps to begin playing
a 10 minute audio sermonette
by Pastor John Soper from his
Know the Word Bible study
series. This audio series has
been so instrumental to my
spiritual growth that Ive been
able to cover nearly two thirds
of the entire Bible in less the
time of reading!
The result of these three
elements combined? BOOM instant worship service in my
very own car! Thats right a
worship service on wheels.
Who says you have to wait until
Sunday to go to church?
Take real, solid steps to avoid temptation
BY MAX ALPIN
CHRISTIAN LIVING
The Gospels tell us that
Jesus spent forty days and
nights in the wilderness undergoing temptation (Matthew 4:111; Mark 1:13; Luke 4:1-13), and
as His followers we can also
expect to be tempted, even if
not as intensely as He was.
Numerous passages in the
Bible also bear witness to the
fact that temptation is a basic
part of Christian experience.
See, e.g., 1 Corinthians 7:5; 10:13;
Galatians 6:1; 1 Thessalonians
3:5; Hebrews 2:18; 4:15; James
1:13-15.
There is of course nothing
wrong about being tempted. It
is yielding to temptation that
is sinful. Knowing that being
tempted is not wrong in itself,
many Christians make the
mistake of doing little to avoid
situations in which they will be
tempted.
In fact, Scripture makes it
clear that normal Christian
living should include taking
steps, sometimes radical steps,
to avoid temptations when that
is possible.
In Matthew 18:8-9 (paralleled
in Mark 9:43-47) Jesus has powerful words on this subject:
If your hand or your foot
causes you to stumble, cut it off
and throw it away. It is better
for you to enter life crippled or
lame than to have two hands
or two feet and be thrown into
the eternal fire. And if your eye
causes you to stumble, gouge it
out and throw it away. It is better for you to enter life with one
eye than to have two eyes and
be thrown into hell fire.
This is a very striking way
of putting things, and Jesus
instructions here are clearly
not meant to be taken literally. However, when reading
something in the Bible that
obviously contains hyperbole,
i.e., language that is deliberately exaggerated for effect,
Christians can often fail to take
what is said as seriously as
they should. An over-compensation for the hyperbole can
occur when interpreting, with
the result that the forcefulness
of the words is not properly
recognised.
The reason why Jesus uses
such striking language in this
passage is both to show the
seriousness of sin and also to
underline that if it is necessary
His followers should be taking
radical steps to avoid sinning.
All of us will be vulnerable
to temptations in various ways,
and we will be aware of at least
some of the sins we are most
in danger of committing. We
should ask ourselves if we are
The Christians problem with
the idea of popularity remains
doing what we can to avoid getting into situations where we
are tempted.
In some circumstances,
we might find that there is
not much we can do, such as
when the temptations concern
only thoughts in our minds.
However, even in situations
like these we can experiment
to see if doing anything helps
us to avoid being tempted. For
instance, we might find that
trying to fix our mind on something good is a help.
When temptations concern
actions, it is much more likely
that we will be able to take
steps that will greatly reduce
the amount we are tempted,
and some of these steps might
need to be radical. I know of
Christians, for example, who
found that they were yielding to
temptations to watch bad programs on TV, or to watch more
TV than they should, and who
got rid of their TVs as a result.
I think this is a good example
of how Jesus command can be
put into practice in the modern
day.
It is not enough, then, for
us to fight temptations that
we experience. We should also
be taking steps to avoid being
tempted in the first place.

give witness
I remember being very shy
and I had a very bad speech
problem. So many people did
not have much patience in listening to me. So I felt a very
heavy burden when our pastor
kept telling us go out and evangelize.
Then I discovered the power
of prayer, after a few years of
committing myself to praying
to God for souls, God gave me
the gift to evangelize without
me asking for it.
I believe not everybody is
called to evangelize. Most people forget it is a gift from God.
I believe we are all called to
give witness. To me evangelizing and giving witness are two
different things.
Evangelizing is sharing
your faith verbally while giving witness can be done by
simply living the faith.
Some people are not confident around people, but their
lives talk about their love of
God and they would never
dream of denying their faith
in Jesus. Your actions speak
louder than your words. People
pick up very quickly the tips
that you are a Christian.
CHRISTIAN LIVING
Now Korah, and Dotham
and Abiram and On, the son
of Eliab…took men. And they
rose up before Moses with certain of the children of Israel,
two hundred and fifty princes
of the assembly famous in the
congregation, men of renown.
And they gathered themselves
together against Moses. And it
came to pass as he had made
an end of speaking all these
words and the ground opened
swallowed them up ..(Numbers
16:1-34 KJV)
The church in the wilderness experienced a rebellion
against the leadership of Moses
staged by four ring leaders and
supported by 250 princes from
the congregation. These men
caused many of the ordinary
people to sway and as a result,
several were killed following an
earth split. These princes who
were royals were the celebrities of their day. God was not
swayed by celebrity or popular
opinion then and neither is he
now. As his children, we should
imitate him (Ephesians 5:1).
It is human to want to fit into
the crowd as there is an uneasiness that comes with being different. This conformity sometimes poses problems especially
as not all that is popular is right.
The perspectives of our society changes continually with
increasing blurriness between
right and wrong. Rather than
a clear black or white, there
are several shades of grey now.
But if we are to make a difference and imprint our mark
in this world, there are several occasions where it would
be necessary to deviate from
popular (Romans 12:2 MSG).
The media is an effective tool
for portraying societys popular as acceptable. Some of the
things that were a shock some
decades ago have now become
so common that the average
person reckons them as proper
or right.
But being popular does not
necessarily translate to being
wrong. Recently as a resulting
of growing popularity via social
network, the world was made
aware of the plight of over 250
Nigerian girls abducted via the
#bringbackourgirls campaign.
Neither should we also
accept everything that is popular in the church or Christian
circle as right. There is a growing Biblical illiteracy amongst
Christians that makes falling into error inevitable. (2
Timothy 2:15, 4:1; Timothy 4:1-2,
Colossians 3:16). Before we join
the next big thing ,we should
check the word of God as the
noble Berean Christians did,
even after Paul taught them
(Acts 17:10-11).
God is not calling us to be
weirdoes, rather he is asking
that we do not follow the crowd
to do evil (Exodus 23:2) which
may sometimes mean not being
politically correct. This may
sometimes lead to persecution
but the persecution should not
be because we have an attitude.
We have been called to be salt
and light (Matthew 5:3-16). As
Christians, our lives should not
be based on what is popular.
