GARNETT Police will be more
active at Anderson County Jr./
Sr. High School after a report
that a student threatened to
bring a weapon to the school
late last week.
The report continued to be
investigated Monday morning by the Garnett Police
Department and Anderson
County Sheriffs Department.
Garnett Police Chief Kevin
Pekarek said no one had been
taken into custody in the inci-
in connection with some type
of altercation. School officials
investigated the matter, took
disciplinary action against the
student and notified police.
A letter was sent home with
students Friday afternoon.
Many times these threats
may not be perceived as credible, but school officials are
going to consider all threats
real, the letter, signed by principal Kenny Kellstadt, read.

December weather

Hit-or-miss rainfall

BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A year marked
with weather inconsistencies is
approaching its end the same
way with extreme variations
in temperature and precipitation.
With only a couple weeks left
in 2014, the area is more than 8
inches short of average rainfall
for the year. But overall, its
been hit or miss when it comes
to rain in Anderson County and
Garnett. Some months have
been wetter than normal, while
others were extremely dry.
Late fall and winter months
were no different, with October
bringing in 6.35 inches of rain.
Thats well above average.
October typically brings about
3.61 inches of rain.
But November fell well below
average, with just 0.40 inches of
rain the entire month. The only
real snowfall of the season fell
Nov. 17, when a half-inch of

Workers with Mid-Continental Restoration of Fort Scott work to fix a seal between the main courthouse building and the tower
Tuesday morning, Dec. 9. Separation between the building and tower allowed water to seep into the attic, especially when
storms rolled in from the southwest, which often set off fire alarms in the 112-year-old building, County Clerk Phyllis Gettler
said. The age of the building means it takes regular maintenance to keep it in working order, she and county commissioners
have said. Commissioners also are considering a new HVAC system for the building.
County to study courthouse space issues
Commissioners want to know
how space is used before
deciding on HVAC system
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Before Anderson County
Commissioners decide how to heat and
cool the 112-year-old county courthouse,
they want to see if there are more efficient ways to use the building.
For several months, commissioners
have considered replacing the courthouses old, inefficient heating system
and window air conditioning units with
a new HVAC (heating, ventilating and
air conditioning) system. The cost of
such a system could run as high as
$1 million to $1.5 million, Anderson
County Commission Chairman Jim
Johnson said. But before commissioners make a decision whether to move
forward with the new HVAC, theyre
going to take a hard look at space
inside the courthouse and other county-owned buildings.
If were going to go to that kind
of expense, we want to do it right,
Johnson said.
Over the next few months engineers
will conduct a space analysis of the
courthouse and other county-owned
buildings like the annex and county
road equipment maintenance building.
The space analysis will show commissioners exactly how space inside those
buildings is being utilized, and where
changes can be made to make the building more efficient.
Some offices at the courthouse, like
the county treasurers office, for example, are crowded and busy. Other offices,
meanwhile, see little public traffic and
have smaller staff in a larger space.
Theres also usable space in the
basement, Johnson said, adding that
at one time the basement was not
usable because of foundation problems
that allowed water to seep into areas.
But the foundation was repaired several years ago, making it more likely that
more basement space could be used.
During the space analysis, engineers

New hospital brings the latest in
healthcare technology to community
GARNETT – In only a few
weeks, on Thursday, Jan. 29, the
new Anderson County Hospital
will open and patients will have
access to the latest innovations
in health care technology.
The new technology will
enhance patient care in many
ways from the moment a
patient walks in the door. The
new hospital features whiteboard technology, which allows
registration staff to electronically notify the specialty clinic,
rehabilitation services, lab,
and radiology departments
when their patients arrive and
tracks how long they have been
waiting. Patient flow is greatly
improved through this new
technology resulting in shorter
wait times, greater staff efficiencies, and an enhanced
patient experience.
The new Anderson County
Hospital boasts a centralized
telemetry system for patients
requiring heart monitoring.
The system monitors heart rate
and rhythm, collecting realtime data for nurses to keep
the physician informed of the
patients progress. Patients will
receive continuous monitoring
by hospital nursing staff and
also remotely by a trained technician at Saint Lukes Hospital
of Kansas City. The new system illustrates the commitment to quality patient care at
Anderson County Hospital and
throughout Saint Lukes Health
System.
The new Residential Living
Center will be a quieter environment with the installation
of a wireless call-light system, which notifies staff that
a resident requires assistance
by lighting up a panel at the
nurses station and outside the
residents door. The panel is so
advanced that it can even identify the urgency of the alert.
Staff will carry phones that
will alert them of the need to
respond to a residents room.
The call system is able to track
staff response times and allows
the care team to work together
to continually to look for efficiencies in care delivery and
ensure resident satisfaction.
According to Mary Gedrose,
RLC director, The new technology promotes more efficient
communication between residents and staff, and will allow
us to continue to set a high bar
for quality when it comes to
resident care.
New technology for the radiology department includes a
CT scanner allowing for faster
scanning of images, providing greater versatility. New
computed tomography angiography (CTA) technology will
allow images of arteries and
vessels to be captured for a
limited angiography with 3-D
reconstruction. This CTA technology will allow the hospital
to provide a new service that
is less invasive than traditional
angiograms. The department
also will be acquiring a new
nuclear medicine camera, providing physicians with more
detailed images that can pinpoint molecular activity within
specific organs and other soft
tissue.
Patients at Anderson County
Hospital will appreciate the
full array of services available
on-site, including MRI, digital
mammography, ultrasound,
cardioscans, bone density tests,
and more. They also will benefit from the picture archiving
communication system (PACS),
which allow physicians from
other Saint Lukes facilities
to easily view current and
past images of patients anywhere throughout Saint Lukes
Health System, thus providing
patients with the best continuum of care. According to Mona
Blevins, radiology manager,
Patients will appreciate hav-
Dont Turn Your Back On Pain
ing fewer trips to the city with
the new technology available
right here.

County Hospital visit saintlukeshealthsystem.org.
Anderson County Hospital
is a member of Saint Lukes
Health System, which consists
of 10 area hospitals and several primary and specialty care
practices, and provides a range
of inpatient, outpatient and
home care services.

money in its reserves to pay for

denied a lower court appeal in
October, effectively ruling that
government entities could tax

EDITORIAL
Did you celebrate Dec. 15?
You probably didnt hear a bunch of
balloons popping or firecrackers exploding on Dec. 15.
There likely werent be any big
speeches offered or parades through
town on that day either.
But if there was ever cause for a celebration in our country, that date is it.
For it is the day we recognize as the
birthday of the U.S. Bill of Rights.
Dec. 15, 2014 is the 223rd anniversary
of the ratification of the first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution, which
spell out succinctly the individual rights
we hold so dearly in America.
Our founders packed a lot of punch
into the First Amendment, basically outlining the freedom of expression we
hold so dearly in America.
Freedom of speech. Freedom of the
press. Freedom of religion. The freedom
to peaceably assemble. The freedom to
petition government for a redress of
grievances.
Certainly, we as citizens hold those
five freedoms as dearly as any others
because they guarantee each of us the
right to stand up and be counted in
America. And they undergird the other
nine amendments by giving us the right
to speak out if we believe our other
rights are being trampled.
Those freedoms provide us with the
tools to exercise that great American
pastime to dissent. If we dont like
what the government is doing, we can
express our opinions loudly and clearly,
in print, on the street corner, online,
across the airwaves or across the coffee
shop table.
If we want to effect change in America,
we know we can march in protest, write
our members of Congress, fight City
Hall, get out and vote, write a letter to
the editor, create our own blog or choose
a thousand other ways to get our message across.
We have seen in the past few months
how exercising the First Amendment
can drive our national dialogue:
Public outrage over domestic violence by National Football League play-

DOUG ANSTAETT, Kansas Press Assoc.
ers led to a national discussion about
how we can more effectively deal with
abusers and educate others on the issue.
Disagreement over what constitutes
justifiable reasons for law enforcement
officers to use excessive force continues
to spark impassioned dialogue today.
Differing opinions over whether climate change is a real threat or even
real have permeated our discussions.
How our nation should deal with
threats around the world often took center stage during the year.
The Ebola virus and its potential
to threaten the entire world ignited an
international debate about how to stop
the disease in its tracks.
Our freedom to discuss is at the
core of our being. We may not agree on
much of anything, but we do cherish the
right and opportunity to express ourselves.
So as we observe this 223rd anniversary of the U.S. Bill of Rights, say a word of
thanks to George Mason, James Madison
and others who made sure those rights
were codified as the first amendments to
our nations Constitution.
They exhibited true foresight in recognizing that the answer to expression we
dont like is not to suppress that speech,
but to encourage even more speech from
those with differing opinions.
We call that freedom.
Doug Anstaett is executive director of
the Kansas Press Association in Topeka.

I may dispatch the entire German Army as a
birthday present to your Prince of Peace … -Prayer of Gen. George S. Patton, Dec. 23, 1944
It is with Pattons plea to the Ultimate
Commanding General that Stanley Weintraub
opens his book, 11 Days in December:
Christmas at the Bulge, 1944. Its the tale of
the worst Christmas for American soldiers
since Valley Forge.
The Allied breakout from Normandy
after D-Day had convinced Gen. Dwight
Eisenhower that the war with Germany
would be over by Christmas, but as the Allied
advance slowed, the Germans planned a
counterattack through the Ardennes forest.
Behind the cover of the thick forest and the
horrid weather, the Germans scored initial
successes, creating the bulge in the Allies
line.
The troops fought in conditions that would,
in other circumstances, have been a winter
wonderland, among evergreen trees freshly covered in snow. The inclement weather
favored the Germans, delaying reinforcements and neutralizing Allied air superiority.
American casualties reached at least 80,000
throughout the course of the battle.
Soldiers who were lucky created makeshift

trees. But GIs who were captured by the
Germans were packed into boxcars in unsanitary conditions and got almost nothing to eat.
They filled the time wanly singing carols,
Weintraub writes. The Germans complained
that it kept them awake and threatened to
shoot if the songs didnt cease.
At the front, German loudspeakers broadcast across the lines, How would you like to
die for Christmas? Americans didnt intimidate so easily. One American soldier in the
encircled city of Bastogne commented to
another, Theyve got us surrounded — the
poor bastards. When a German commander
demanded the surrender of the Americans at
Bastogne, Gen. Anthony McAuliffe famously
responded Nuts!
Gen. Patton, who had been looking for-
ward to thrusting toward the Saar region of
Germany, instead had to relieve Bastogne.
Earlier, he had badgered his chaplain to pray
for optimal conditions for an offensive. The
chaplain noted that it isnt a customary
thing among men of my profession to pray for
clear weather to kill fellow men. Undeterred,
Patton asked, Are you teaching me theology
or are you the chaplain of the Third Army?
Patton distributed a printed prayer for
good weather to his troops and made his own
appeal, noted above. The weather improved,
and Patton wrote in his diary, A clear,
cold Christmas, lovely weather for killing
Germans, which seems a bit queer seeing
Whose birthday it is. By early January, the
Germans were forced to withdraw from the
Ardennes, and the Allies were at the Rhine by
March.
One schoolmaster returning to his blasted
classroom after the battle found a message
scrawled on the blackboard from a distraught
German officer: From the ruins, out of
blood and death shall come forth a brotherly
world. Unlikely as it seemed at the time, he
was right. The Allied victory created the
predicate for a free Europe at peace.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National
Review.
Brownback will get what he wants… so whats that?
Gov. Sam Brownback: Fiendishly clever…or
not.
Boy, how often do you get to write that
about a governor?
Heres how this shakes out.
Brownback, of course, signed into law massive income tax cuts two years ago, and while
the cuts were bigger than he wanted, hes got
them. And, for a very conservative governor, he is safely into a second four-year term
(unless some more attractive job pops up).
From that position, Brownback can pretty
much decide how much government he wants
Kansas to have. Brownback is a small government guy, or at least a smaller government
guy.
So, hes proposed that because the state
cant spend more money than it takes in each
year, hell meet this years projected $278 million shortfall largely by drying up all the
excess cash sitting around in state agencies.
His tactic? Transferring about $200 million in
those fundsranging from the Bank of the
Kansas Department of Transportation to new
appropriations to the states pension system to
the State General Fund, and actually cutting
some expenditures this fiscal year.
If the Legislature goes along, Brownback
will have met the duty to balance the state
budget…and drained the state of virtually all
spare change for use in the upcoming fiscal
year.
If the Legislature goes for the plan (and
some lawmakers want to go back into this
years budget and make cuts, which Brownback
is expected to discourage), Kansas will have to
finance next fiscal years budget, which starts
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
July 1, with just the tax revenues it takes in.
Were looking at estimated spendable revenues for the upcoming fiscal year of $5.8
billion, compared to the $6.3 billion that the
Brownback plan would see spent for this fiscal
year which ends June 30.
Just doing the subtraction wont show it,
because there are other expenditures that are
automatically going to rise, but it means the
state will have to cut about $650 million from
this years comfortable budget. Thats a dab
over 10 percent in cuts that legislators will be
looking at in the upcoming session.
If youre a fan of smaller government, this
is a brilliant ploy. If youre not a fan of smaller
government, well, Brownback has made sure
youll have to prove it by raising revenues
while mid-term Brownback gets to watch what
sort of campaigns lawmakers muster for election to the House and Senate.
Heres where the fiendishly clever business
may come into play.
Brownback can suggest a budget that makes
those cuts to keep the state in the black, which
automatically means dramatic spending cuts
or program shrinkage, or the elimination of
programs…or he can restructure the states
taxes to finance a smaller cut in state spending.
Thats taxes, yes, but taxes Brownback is
interested in. Not income taxes, of course, or
any increase in corporate taxes, but maybe
sales taxes. And, hey, theyll gripe, but cigarettes and booze probably dont cost what
theyre worth if you gotta have them…
Oh, and remember that there is more than
$6 billion in economic activity that is exempt
from sales taxes including most services ranging from legal and accounting to, apparently,
lap dances, but nobodys ever gotten a receipt
for those…
So, it appears that Brownback is putting legislators into the position where they approve
the spending cuts that are in the futureand
how often have we heard the phrase living
within your meansor finding some new
revenue source. Or, of course, just not financing services Kansans demand, which means
local units of government will have to pick up
the cost of those services which means higher
local property taxes or fees or some such.
This might just be devilishly clever. Or not.

Bulldogs seek redemption in 2014
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT It took the Bulldogs
a while to wake up to the 2013
season last year. But the team
lost seven seniors to graduation, and like they say 2014 is
a new ball game.
Garnett suffered through a
4-18 season in 2013 but came
alive in the sub state tournament, dumping Burlington in
the opener and then leading
Iola in the finals until dropping the win in the 4th period.
Head coach Steve Lyon hopes
the memory of that sub state
tournament has stayed with his
returning lettermen from last
season.
We should be fighting
for league champs and making a run at sub state, Lyon
said of 2014-2015. Wellsville,
Osawatomie and Prairie View
look to be the favorites in the
(Pioneer) league, but we hope
to surprise some teams this
year.
The Bulldogs return with
some juniors whove been
consistent on the court since
they played local Biddy Ball
as tykes. Returning lettermen
include juniors Derrick Nelson,
Chase Ratliff, Jake Rundle,

AC girls approach
season with strategy

2014-2015 AC Lady Bulldogs Front row from left: Katie Lybarger, Emily Fritz, Lexi Lickteig, Jasmine White. Back row: Head coach Tim
Bremerman, Paige Scheckel, Madison Ratliff, Samantha McCullough, Maycee Ratliff, Maci Rockers.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The key for the
ACHS girls team this year is
going to be a defense that forces
shots from the outside and an
offense that is aggressive but
patient.
We want to stop the dribble penetration and allow only
one shot, said head coach Tim
Bremerman, who starts his
fifth year at the helm of the
Lady Bulldogs. Were encouraging more girls to be scoring
threats to make it difficult for
teams to stop more than 1-2
girls.
Its a strategy thats taken
a while to coalesce. AC was 1013 last year, managing a second place finish in the Pioneer
League. The squad lost veteran
player Tayler Porter to graduation but brings back a host
of seasoned talent and some
solid varsity newcomers all
of whom Bremerman said will
all be key to the teams plan for
2014-2015.
Senior forward Smantha
McCullough is back this year
with a 8.7 point-per-game and
4.8 rebound/game average
that earned her an All-Pioneer
League Second Team selection
last year. Shes the only senior
and will have to lead her team
as well as perform on the court.
Junior forward Paige Scheckel
was a First Team All League
pick last year as a sophomore
and ACs second leading scorer
last season. Three years of varsity experience makes her a
force on the court.
Additional lettermen coming back to the season include
juniors Maci Rockers and
Madison Ratliff and sophomore
Maycee Ratliff. Theyve gotten
another year old and another
year better, Bremerman said.
They have a better understanding of what we are trying
to accomplish here and we look
to them to get more shots up
and be even more aggressive on
defense.
Others making a home on
varsity this year are sophomores Katie Lybarger, Lexi
Lickteig, Jasmine White and
Emily Fritz, who Bremerman
expects will be working to earn
playing time.
Bremerman said a major
advantage AC has this year is
a team chemistry that has connected its members and helped
with the flow of play.
Its looking good right now
with everyone on the same page
creating offensive opportunities
for each other. He said that
chemistry will have to continue
for the team to meet its goals in
a league which has taken on a
new look this year.
Were looking to get 15-plus
wins this season and fight for a
league title, Bremerman said.
We are also keeping our eyes
on a sub-state championship
and making the trip down to
Park City for the 4A DII state
tournament. With the addition of Santa Fe Trail to our
league and (with games scheduled with) Parsons and Girard,
were going to face a couple of
teams we havent faced in the
past. Its always good to play
someone different.
He said he thinks graduation
losses were heavy on most of
the Pioneer League teams from
last year, except for league
champs Iola, which has nearly
everyone back from last years
solid team.
Members of the AC junior
varsity include: Emma Porter,
Jasmine White, Adri Pedrow,
Tregon
Tuersey,
Alexis
Feuerborn, Shylie Scheckel,
Emily Fritz, Gabby Spring,

Vikings reboot with new coach, new starting five
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND Every now and then a year
comes around when graduation or circumstance wipes a teams slate clean, and
you start all over. Its a clean start, but the
advantages of the past are over.
Thats more or less the theme at Central
Heights this year, after the team lost all five
of last seasons starters to graduation last
May and started over with a familiar face
CHHS athletic director Doug North as
head basketball coach. That means a new
system and new direction with players who
gained experience last year but will now
have their own potatoes in the pressure
cooker.
We have to play at a faster pace and
control the tempo of the game, North
said. Our strengths are our perimeter play
our ability to play hard and Jacob Pryor
(a junior) in the post. Were not as big in the
post as we were last year, so we are a more
outside team this year.
Were learning a new system of play
which will be a process during the season,
North said. Itll take time to implement.
We just want to try and improve each time
out.
The Vikes lost Jordan Horstick, Tyler
Hendron, Tristan Davis, Tanner Erhart
and Koby Robertson to graduation. Last
seasons Vikings went 10-11 and lost their
first sub state tourney matchup to Osage
City.
Returning lettermen along with Pryor
include Chase Brown and Gavin Holler, both
seniors, and junior Merrick Brown. North
said hell also be looking for playing time
from juniors Matt Percy, Marcus Watson,
Zele Smith, Logan Speaks, and sophomores
Cole Speaks, Cameron Hampton, Ethan
Shields and Cade Masingale.
North said he expects Wellsville and
Osawatomie to be the top returning teams
in this seasons Pioneer League.

Vikings need to solve mental equation
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND It wasnt that the
Central Heights Viking girls
didnt have the metal to make
a success out of last season
but they may not have had the
mental.
We started out the season 31 with a big win against Spring
Hill, said fifth-year head coach
Scott Lane. After that we lost
confidence and lost a bunch of
games by three points or less.
CHHS ended the season 7-14.
The mental angle is an area
Lane says will be a focus this
season.
We want to continue to get
better at the fundamentals andhope that gets us over the hump
this year. I think another goal is
to be a confident bunch and not
let close losses affect us like last
year. We need to be stronger
mentally.
The Vikes lost Kenzie
Hayward and Whitney Kraus to
graduation in May, but return a
core of lettermen with decent
height and some unique qualities.
At 61, senior Sydney Meyer
earned first-team Pioneer
League honors last season and
a statewide 3A honorable mention. Lane says shes a rare find
of commitment and dedication
hard worker always bent on
getting better.
Tami Schaefer is a 57
senior forward with a blue collar attitude an energetic post
player with a make-it-happen
approach to the game.
Lane says 55 junior guard
Regan Markley is another
player to watch in the 2014-2015
season. She has the potential to be a great defender and
scorer, Lane said. She has a
lot of intangibles that cant be
coached.
Other returning lettermen
from last season include 52
sophomore Sara Bell; 57
sophomore Megan Davis; 59
sophomore Tess Cotter and
57 senior Amanda Raby.
Rounding out the roster are
freshmen Emilee Sheldon,
Jasmine Clancy, Lindsay
Burson, Shelbie Hettinger,
Olivia Stockard, Jency Woods
and Paige Stockard and junior
Lindsay Folsom.
In terms of competition,
Lane says the Vikings wont
have to look far to find tough
teams this season.
I think our league will
be very competitive and very
even, he said. Iola looks to
have the best team n the league
based on last years results.
For the Vikings, Lane said
success will be achieved by
increments.
Our goal is to get a little bit
better every practice and every
game, he said. We have to be
solid every night on the defensive side of the court. We cant
afford to play a game in the 50s
this year.

Speed, shooting key to Lancer season
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY The 2014 Crest Lancers dont
have a lot of size on their side, so head
coach Travis Hermreck is banking on a
blitzkrieg style approach this season
to overcome opponents with one of the
Lancers advantages speed.
Only three of this years Lancers top 6
feet. One of them, Hayden Seabolt, at 60,
is a freshman.
Were quick, and we can shoot the ball
from outside, said Hermreck, whos starting his 9th season at the reins of the Crest
basketball program. A big key for us will
be our ability to defend despite our lack of
size.
The 2014 season will have a push-back
feel for the Lancers. With last years 1012 win/loss record, it was the first losing
season for the team in eight years, and
the team ended its season in the sub state
finals at the hands of Chetopa. Brock Ellis,
who shot at 13.2 average on that season, as
well as Landon Stephens, were both lost to
graduation last year.
The 2014 squad returns some solid experience in senior Austin Green and juniors
Hunter Frazell, Kellen Ramsey, Evan
Godderz, Brandon Brallier, Garrett Sipe
and Colton Strickler. Theyll face a schedule that Hermreck says is one of the toughest theyve have seen in a while, with the 1A
Lancers matched primarily against 3A and
2A teams.
We have to play fast and bring a lot of
defensive pressure, Hermreck said. A
key to our success will be wearing out our
opponents.
Three goals will guide them, Hermreck
said: getting back to a winning season,
making it to the state tournament and
grasping a lower division Three Rivers
League Championship.

Bulldog grapplers aim for season of control
GARNETT The 2014-15
Bulldog wrestling squad is
young and small, but 3rd year
head coach Jason Brown says
tough conditioning of the body
and mind and the examples of
a couple of state qualifiers last
year will make the Bulldogs
formidable this season.
Lee Koch and Dallas Cox
both qualified for the 4A wrestling tournament last year,
and Koch managed a 5th place
finish at the 182 pound mark.
Both, along with varsity letterman Storm Pracht, were lost to
graduation last year.
This year the team sports 21
wrestlers, but no seniors.
Were going to be open at
two weights, which will hurt at
some of the duals, Brown said.
Were young and small but
were going to be tough from
120 to about 170 pounds.
A focus this season has been
conditioning, Brown said, and
the mental goal of controlling
every match from start to finish.
We have to be mentally
tougher than our opponents,
Brown said.
Returning lettermen include
juniors Tyler Belshe, Blade
Marmon, Matt Kirkland and
Shiloh Sutton, along with sophomores Caleb Belshe, Michael
Bachman and Kyle Lamb.
Landon Thacker is a new
move-in to the district, who will
be able to wrestle starting in
January. Junior Maddie Goode
lettered last year as a sophomore but will be out of competition due to injuries from
an auto accident. Brown said
adding Santa Fe Trail to the
Pioneer League lineup throws a
new dimension into the competition this year.
Our league is always tough
and adding Santa Fe Trail is
only going to make it more so,
Brown said. We feel that we
will be able to compete with
everyone on the mat year in
and year out.
Look for Caleb and Tyler
Belshe to be among the leaders at the 138 and 132 classes
this year, Brown said. He said
he expects to see some solid
performances from Lamb and
Marmon as well.
We want to win more duals
than last year, build on the success of last years state placing
wrestler and build a program,
Brown said.
Assistant coach is Michael
Belshe. Wrestlers and their
weight
classes
include:
Seniors Asa Young (182),
Landon Thacker (285) and
Josh Hermreck (160); juniors
Tyler Belshe (138), Blade
Marmon (126), Shiloh Sutton

Crest drops to Erie 53-34
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
HUMBOLDT The Lancers
couldnt get their motor
warmed up against Erie last
week and lost 53-34.
The one constant we should
have is effort, said Crest coach
Travis Hermreck. We played
with very little of it against
Erie.
Crest just couldnt work out
any shooting until the second
half and by then it was too late.
Austin Green hit the Lancers
only 6 points in the first period,
and the second was limited to a
three-pointer by Evan Godderz,
a bucket from Hunter Frazell
and a free throw and a 2-point
shot from Kellen Ramsey. The
Lancers trailed 26-14 at the
half.
Frazell nailed a couple of
treys and a bucket in the third
period to score 8 of Crests 10
points in the quarter but it
still wasnt enough to fire the
Lancers pistons. Erie snapped
backwith 16 points in the period
to widen the lead. Crest banked
another 10 in the final period
but, Erie put up 11.
Viking girls beat Osage in OT
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND The Central
Heights girls proved what
tenacity means last week in
the consolation round of the
Trojan Tip-Off with a 37-35 win
over Osage City in overtime.
It was a back and forth tug-
o-war all night, but the scoring combo of Regan Markley
and Sydney Meyer managed
to push Central Heights into
the OT and a nudge beyond.
Markley hit 16 points to lead
the Vikes with Meyer kicking
in 14. Sarah Bell had 3, Tess
Cotter 3 and Megan Davis 1.

Greeley Elementary School Celebrates
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 12-16-2014 / Photo Submitted
The Greeley students performed their winter program Tuesday night, Dec. 9. The
program titled Santas Workshop Chapter 2 and directed by Mr. Russell, was a
short play combined with traditional holiday songs. The bell choir also performed
Silent Night and the evening ended with the arrival of Santa Claus who patiently
listened to the wish lists of all the children. Top photo: Greeley first and second

Stop now! Make
your plan for 2015
Stop what youre doing right
now and find a 2015 calendar.
Following the too-often-proven theory that many of us in
small business face more struggles because we fail to plan
effectively, were going to take
a quick jaunt through 2015 to
figure out what happens, when,
and what we want to do about
it.
Obviously every business
will be a little different, but as
you skim the following think
about it in the context of your
business and what you do every
year various promotions, fast
and slow times anything special that means a special opportunity for your business or even
perhaps a pitfall like a notoriously slow cash flow period for
which you can prepare. Keep in
mind if youre doing a sale or
special promotion, the rule of
thumb is to start planning 60
days out and be flexible enough
to change closer to D-Day if
need be.
Valentines Day, for instance
is always February 14, but
this year the 14th falls on a
Saturday a bonanza for restaurants and actually a more
competitive time. Valentines is
always a big restaurant night
no matter what day it falls on.
Saturday is usually big as well.
This year two big nights will
combine on one night, but actually restaurants will be competing for a crowd thats now
funneled from two nights into
one. See why looking ahead is
important?
Similar thing with Easter
its about where we expect
it this year instead of late or
early first Sunday in April.
Mothers Day falls on May 10
in 2015 always a Sunday, of
course. Memorial Day is May
25. Fathers Day June 21.
The Fourth of July falls on
a Saturday, which for most of
us means we dont get an extra
day off that week due to the
holiday falling on a weekday,
but others will get that Friday
off.
Labor Day Weekend will
start Friday the 4th and run
through Monday the 7th of
September. Halloween will be

1984: Kincaid gets unique teaching tool
Dec. 14, 2004
The man who generated outrage from animal rights groups
over the killing of several dogs
in his kennel in October pled
no contest when he finally
appeared in court on animal
cruelty charges last week, but
the real courtroom argument
may come over his sentencing.
Danny Berry, 45, of Harris,
faced 53 misdemeanors in all.
In a plea agreement, 47 of those
were dropped. The prosecutor
said he plans to ask for one year
in jail. The defense is expected to
argue for probation. Sentencing
is Jan. 4.
A tense meeting Wednesday
between city and county commissioners and the owners and
financial consultants of Garnett
Church Furnishings failed to
determine when the company
will take over the city/countybacked financing deal for the
companys $1.3 million factory
building, and another meeting
has been set for Jan. 5 in hopes
of resolving those issues.

Planned cuts in the number of county offices operated by the United States
Department of Agriculture
probably wont affect the federal office in Garnett. Anderson
County Office of Agricultural
Stabilization and Conservation
Director Leo Wiederholt said
that the office will remain open.
In Kansas, 12 of the 116 USDA
offices will close. The local
office will soon be called the
Farm Service Agency and will
incorporate a broader range of
services.
The Kansas Supreme Court
took action Dec. 2 that has made
many area superintendents
and school officials happy. The
court upheld the state legislatures right to dictate how
schools in the state are funded
and therefore kept intact, for
the time being, provisions that
give smaller districts more
money per pupil than larger
districts. About three years ago,
THAT WAS THEN
Vickie Moss
Send historic photos, information
to review@garnett-ks.com
the Kansas Legislature passed
a law that drastically changed
the way school districts are
financed. Districts now have
a mill levy for their general
funds that are set by the state.
That money basically goes into
a big pot and then is redistributed back to the school districts
on a weighted, per pupil basis.
Obviously, many school districts in the state saw the new
way of raising funds as more
equitable while a few, the ones
that were hit with higher taxes
or less funding, didnt like the
new law.

The Board of Trustees of
the Anderson County Hospital
met to open the bids that had
been submitted by contractors
to install heat/air conditioning
equipment in the hospital kitchen and small dining room areas.
The bids did not contain sufficiently detailed lists of equipment and cost breakdowns for
the board to award the contract,
according to board chairperson
Ann Calahan. Instead, she suggested the board prepare a specific list of the boards requirements for equipment.
The Kincaid schools are in a
school consortium ownership
of a planetarium with several
other schools. The Starlab planetarium system is an inflatable
tent-like igloo, which inflates
into a room by use of a regular box type room fan to pump

Garnett needs a cold-storage
plant has needed it a long time
for taking care of eggs, meats,

suggested that the farmers of

Grocers and meat market men
would also find such a plant of
value to them, and they should
get behind and push. They
could join with the farmers in
establishing the institution.
Some of the wheat, which is

Found peace on earth,
goodwill toward men
In Matthew 1:26-33 we
read how the angel appeared
to Mary. In the sixth month,
God sent the angel Gabriel to
Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to
a virgin pledged to be married
to a man Joseph, a descendant
of David. The virgins name
was Mary. The angel went to
her and said, Greetings you
are highly favored! The Lord is
with you.
Mary was greatly troubled at
his words and wondered what
kind of greeting this might be.
But the angel said to her, Do
not be afraid, Mary you have
found favor with God.
Gabriel is the ARCH ANGEL
and is one of only two angels
who stand in the very presence
of God. His name means God
is great. All appearances of
Gabriel in the Bible are connected with the promise of the
coming Messiah. He brings
news of the coming birth of
Jesus. The first thing Gabriel
does is to assure Mary she has
nothing to be afraid of. There
is nothing more difficult to deal
with than fear. Fear robs us of
our ability to think and reason
and understand. Fear interrupts the whole decision making process. Maybe that is part
of what makes Christmas time
so special, fear is not an emotion
that is present at Christmas.
All of our hymns and services
focus on peace on earth and
good will toward man. There
have even been times during
war when a cease fire has been
proclaimed on Christmas Eve.

Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
So what is it that causes us
to lose the peace on earth good
will toward man mind set that
develops through the Christmas
season. I believe it is fear. Fear
for our health, fear of economic
hardship, fear of failure and
fear of death. For some reason
at Christmas people are able to
drop their guard and embrace
a couple of days or a season
when what happens is not as
important as it has seemed.
If Gabriel was so careful to
eliminate any thought of fear
from Marys mind maybe we
need to be mindful of the affect
fear can have on our relationship with God. You see in a
right relationship with God
there is no room for fear. Paul
says in Philippians 4:7, And
the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, will
guard your hearts and you
minds in Christ Jesus. This
is a Christmas gift you can only
give yourself. This Christmas
season receive Jesus as your
Savior and then as Jesus said,
Fear not for I will never leave
you or forsake you.

RX farmers. Who knew?
File this under the heading
of, who would have ever thunk
it?
What Im referring to is
the notion that todays farmers need a prescription and a
degree in chemistry to apply
herbicides, insecticides and fertilizers to their land in order to
grow and produce the food we
eat every day.
About this time, youre probably chuckling to yourself,
smiling and thinking, Ah that
cant be happening. Whats he
writing about now?
Read on.
Some environmentalists
remain mighty concerned
about the plant food, bug and
weed control methods our farmers use today on their wheat,
corn, beans, vegetables and
other crops. Theyre also concerned about chemical residue
and how application exposure
affects them and their fellow
human beings.
As technology continues
to improve, the tools producers require to grow food fall
under closer scrutiny. Some
clamor louder for stricter control or even elimination. Others
already believe pesticide use
should be by prescription only.
Heres an example.
Say a farmer has a corn
borer problem. If these radical
environmentalists succeed, the
producer might have to call in a
specialist to look over the problem. Once the situation is diagnosed, the government specialist would write the food grower
a prescription for chemicals,
just like a doctor would for a
sick patient.
The farmers next step would
be to call a chemical applicator

who would come to the farm
and apply the designated herbicide or insecticide. This additional help would subtract from
the farmers bottom line.
If youre thinking this may
be a bit extreme could be,
however, its a safe bet we will
see farmers losing the use of
more and more chemicals. It
happens every year.
Today, some chemicals are
being lumped into the restricted-use category. This removes
them from the hands of the
general farming public. Some
of these chemicals will never
be used again.
It seems every year there
are more stringent requirements for applicators who
apply chemicals. Farmers must
plan ahead and take part in the
development of new rules and
regulations that will strongly
impact the way they grow our
food in the future.

Deck the halls safely this holiday season
TOPEKA For most of us,
the holiday season represents
a time for family festivities
and good cheer. What few of
us consider is that the holiday
season is a time when there
is an increased risk of home
fires and other injuries. The
Office of the State Fire Marshal
(OSFM) and Safe Kids Kansas
reminds parents and caregivers to take a few precautions
when decorating for Christmas,
Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and other
winter festivities.
Christmas trees, candles
and holiday decorations significantly contribute to the
seasonal causes of home fires.
Add to that the hectic nature
of the holidays, when people
are trying to accomplish multiple tasks at one time, and the
chance for home fires grows
even more.
As everyone gets busier
during the holidays, we often
become rushed, distracted or
tired, says Doug Jorgensen,
State Fire Marshal. Thats
when home fires are more likely to occur.
Holiday celebrations often
include cooking or baking. Its
important to know that unattended cooking is the leading
cause of home fires and home
fire injuries in the United
States. Most cooking fires
involve the stovetop, so keep
your counter space nearby free
from anything that can catch
fire. Turn off the stove when
you leave the kitchen, even if
its for a short period of time.
If youre simmering, boiling,
baking or roasting food, check
$11.99*
it regularly and use a timer to
remind you that youre cooking.
Also, create a kid-free zone of
at least three feet around the
stove and areas where hot food
and drinks are prepared or carried.
Candles are widely used in
homes throughout the holidays, and December is the peak
month for home candle fires.
According to the National
Fire Protection Associations
(NFPA), two out of every five
home decoration fires are started by candles. Consider using
flameless candles, which look
and smell like real candles, and
will keep children safe from
burns. If you do use traditional
candles, keep them at least 12
away from anything that can
burn, and remember to blow
them out when you leave the
room or go to bed.
If you decorate a tree, be
sure to take these precautions:
Never leave a lit Christmas
tree or other decorative lighting display unattended. Inspect
lights for exposed or frayed
wires, loose connections and
broken sockets. Do not overload
extension cords or outlets and
do not run an electrical cord
under a rug.
Decorative lighting should
be labeled with the seal of an
independent testing lab. If its
not labeled for outdoor use,
dont use it outdoors
Natural Christmas trees
always involve some risk of
fire. To minimize the risk, get
a fresh tree and keep it watered
at all times or consider an artificial tree. Do not put the tree
kdan
1×2
within three feet of a fireplace,
space heater, radiator or heat
vent. LED lights burn cooler
than incandescent lights and
pose a lower risk of fire.
Do not burn Christmas
tree branches, treated wood or
wrapping paper in a home fireplace.
Never leave burning candles unattended. Dont put
candles on a tree or a natural wreath, or near curtains
or drapes. Keep matches and
lighters locked out of reach.
Battery-operated flameless
candles are an alternative that
does not have a fire risk.
Have working smoke detectors on every level of your home
and in every sleeping area.
Safe Kids Kansas also offers
these tips to prevent accidental
poisoning:
Keep alcohol (including
baking extracts) out of reach
and do not leave alcoholic
drinks unattended. Dont forget
to store all medications, including those for children, out of
reach.
Color additives used in fireplace fires are a toxic product
and should be stored out of
reach. Artificial snow sprays
are also harmful if inhaled.
Holly berries, mistletoe
berries, poinsettias, amaryllis, boxwood, Christmas rose,
Crown of Thorns, English ivy
and Jerusalem cherry are all
potentially harmful if eaten.
If a child eats any part of a
non-food plant, call the Poison
Control Center at 800-222-1222.
Have furnaces inspected
annually, and install carbon
monoxide detectors in your
home.
If children will be spending
time in your home this season,
do some basic childproofing
in advance, said Cherie Sage,
Safe Kids Kansas. For example, keep ornaments and other
decorations that have small
parts, metal hooks or look like
food out of reach of small children. Simple precautions can
help ensure your family stays
home for the holidays, and out
of the Emergency Department.
