The Christmas Story
King James Version
For unto us a Child is born,
unto us a Son is given: and The
Government shall be upon His
Shoulder: and His Name shall be
called Wonderful, Counsellor, The
Mighty GOD, The Everlasting
Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the
increase of His Government and
peace there shall be no end, upon
the Throne of David, and upon His
Kingdom, to order it, and to establish
it with judgment and with justice
from henceforth even for ever. The
zeal of the LORD of Hosts will perform this (Isaiah 9:6-7).
The Story of the Birth of Christ
As told through Luke
Luke 2:1 And it came to pass in those
days, that there went out a decree
from Caesar Augustus, that all the
world should be taxed. 2:2 (And
this taxing was first made when
Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) 2:3
And all went to be taxed, every one
into his own city. 2:4 And Joseph
also went up from Galilee, out of the
city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto
the city of David, which is called
Bethlehem; (because he was of the
house and lineage of David:) 2:5 To
be taxed with Mary his espoused
wife, being great with Child. 2:6
And so it was, that, while they were
there, the days were accomplished
that she should be delivered.
2:7 And she brought forth her firstborn Son,
and wrapped Him in swaddling
clothes, and laid Him in a manger;
because there was no room for them
in the inn.
2:8 And there were in the same
country shepherds abiding in the
field, keeping watch over their flock
by night. 2:9 And, lo, the angel of
the LORD came upon them, and
the glory of the LORD shone round
about them: and they were sore

The Force attracts fans
to movies opening night
Teens dress up for first
night of new Star Wars
movie at Iola theater

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
IOLA – Anderson County High
School sophomore Nate Gainer, 15,
and his friends made plans to see the
premiere of the new Star Wars film,
The Force Awakens, soon after
the release date was announced in
October.
On Thursday evening, Dec. 17,
Nate donned his Yoda mask and
robe. His friend, Hayden Hermann,
wore a Clone Trooper helmet, and
Owen Lutz wore a Jedi robe. They
were ready.
But because of security concerns
at the B&B Sterling Six movie theater in Iola, the boys were unable
to wear the masks nor take their
light sabers into the theater. They
kept the robes on, though, joining thousands of Star Wars fans
across the world to watch the lat-
est, long-awaited entry in the Star
Wars movie franchise. According
to media reports, the movie earned
$528 million worldwide since it
opened last week.

A new wind farm in eastern Coffey County is visible from many parts of Anderson County, like this location near the
county line on K-31. A similar project has been proposed by a different company south and east of Greeley.

Affected landowners say
they are concerned about

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Plans by a Texas company to build 100 wind mills edging 500 feet high along a ridge in
eastern Anderson County received
a lukewarm reception among proposed site owners at an informational meeting last week.
Representatives of Calpine
Corporation met with about 100
landowners Tuesday, Dec. 15, to discuss plans to lease their properties
as sites in the project. Some owners
were mailed draft lease agreements
along with their invitations to the
informational dinner meeting,
where company staffers were introduced and a general overview given
of the company and its proposed
operations, which would bring a
$14,000 construction period payment and annual lease payments
of some $6,000 to participating landowners.
Several landowners and neigh-
bors have spoken against the proposal. They say they are concerned
the project wont significantly help
the countys economy and instead
will be a blight on the landscape
and property values. Theyre also
concerned about the restrictions
on property owners who choose to
lease land for the turbines.
Most of the audience appeared
to be less than receptive to the proposal, said Anderson County Jerry
Howarter, who attended the meeting. Calpine officials approached

Review publisher reflects on 30 years at newspaper
Hicks recalls tussles with
county leaders, fighting for
new school, technology impact
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – The first time Dane Hicks
walked into the Garnett Publishing
office 30 years ago, he was assailed by
the smell of ink. A linotype machine,
which smelted lead into a line of tiny
letters, and other ancient printing
machines filled the building.
Printing used to be a very grimy,
industrial business, Hicks said.
But things were already starting to change when Hicks arrived
at the local newspaper for the first
time in December 1985. Don Stimble,
the owner of the company who had
hired Hicks as managing editor, had
ordered $21,000 worth of desktop publishing equipment, including the latest Apple Macintosh 512K computers.
The newspaper would become the first
in Kansas to be wholly produced using
desktop publishing technology, which
would be the standard in another 10
years.
Hicks spent the first couple months
of his new job tossing out early 1900sera printing equipment leftovers
from the 1956 merger of The Garnett
Review and The Anderson Countian,
which each had their roots going back
to the 1800s to make way for the new
computers that arrived in February
1986.
A lot of history went out the door,
unfortunately, he said.
Now, you dont smell ink when you
walk through the front door at Garnett
Publishing. And although some pieces
of printing equipment remain on site,
nearly all of the production of the
newspaper is done with just a few people using just a few computers – and
sometimes using tiny technology, like

MOVIE…
FROM PAGE 1A
Adam Caylor, 32, of Garnett,
was among those who attended Thursdays premiere in Iola.
His 5-year-old twins are not yet
old enough to enjoy the movie
theater experience, so he went
with his brother. Caylor was
born in 1982, the year Return
of the Jedi was first released,
and was too young to see the
original trilogy in theaters, but
he watched that original trilogy before the prequels were
released between 1999 and 2005.
It was a good thing I saw
those first, he joked, referencing the widely panned prequel
trilogy.
But despite his disappointment with the prequels, Caylor
said he was pleased with the
newest installment of the series.
Without giving away spoilers,
Caylor called the movie more
of a reboot of the original.
As far as a Star Wars movie,
its excellent. Its place in the
chronology will depend on the
sequels, he said.
The new movie takes place
after the original Star Wars trilogy and features several familiar faces from the originals,
such as Mark Hamill as Luke
Skywalker, Harrison Ford as
Han Solo and Carrie Fischer
as Princess Leia. Several new,
young actors take the lead in
the battle of good versus evil.
Caylor, who attended the
premiere on a last-minute
whim, said Star Wars appeals to
a wide variety of people because
it pays homage to wide variety
of movie genres: Old westerns,
old crime stories, old romances,
as well as science fiction.
It has mass appeal, from
nerds like me to regular Joes,
he said.
Nate Gainer first watched
the Star Wars movies with his
father, Jim Gainer. The Spike
cable television channel often
played movies one after the
other, each night. Nate said
he liked to sit down with his
dad and eat popcorn as they
watched the movies. Nate was
too young to attend most of the
movies when they were first
released, although he remembers watching the last one,
Revenge of the Sith, in the theater in 2005, when he was just 5.
Hes seen all the movies, as
well as many of the resulting
spin-off TV shows and cartoons.
He enjoys reading books that
have been created using the
Star Wars universe as inspiration, usually with multiple
sequels.
When Nate began to drive,
his parents agreed to let him
personalize his vehicles tag.
After several submissions were
rejected, he was awarded a plate
that reads, JEDI4RC.
You would be surprised
how many things I tried. They
were all taken, he said of the
popularity of the movie franchise.
His car also features Star
Wars seat covers.
As a huge fan of the Star
Wars universe, Nate also was
impressed by the latest movie.
He said it stays faithful to the
storyline from the movies,
but ignores most of the various spinoffs and stories that
emerged later. He said there
are several inside jokes that
reference the other movies, so
it helps if you have seen and
remember those movies.
Because the movie premiered on a Thursday evening,
Nate and his friends stayed out
a little late on a school night.
Nate had a science final the
next day, but felt it was worth
the risk that he might be a little
tired when he took the final.
Nates dad took him and his
friends to the 3D premiere, and
Nate returned again Friday to
watch the movie in 2D with his
mom and grandparents.
Hes already got the release
date of the next movie marked
on his calendar: May 26, 2017.
Hell be a junior in high school,
and hes already started planning to go.

REMEMBRANCES
HICKS…
FROM PAGE 1A

can take pictures and videos or
help with research and interviews.
The Anderson County
Review has been celebrating
its 150th anniversary in 2015.
But as the year winds to a close,
another milestone has been
reached; Editor and publisher
Dane Hicks celebrated 30 years
with the paper on Dec. 17.
Much has changed in the
way newspapers operate since
he arrived, and Hicks predicts
technology will continue to
advance at an even more rapid
pace. Even so, Hicks said, the
role of newspapers remains
much the same as it always has
been. He doesnt expect that to
change.
Our business is not driven by presses or computers or
iPhones or the Internet, Hicks
said. Our business is driven
by the need to know information. None of those accessories
can provide the need to know
without somebody on the other
side driving it, using their curiosity and initiative to develop it
and provide it.
Welcome to Anderson County
Hicks graduated from the
University of Missouri School
of Journalism in May of 1985.
The previous summer he had
graduated Officer Candidate
School in U.S. Marine Corps in
Quantico, Va., and expected to
enter flight school after finishing basic officer training.
But at the time, he was dating a woman he planned to
marry and she wasnt the military wife type. He interviewed
for a job in public relations
for a nuclear power plant in
Missouri, and felt confident he
would get the job. A second
interview was scheduled a few
days after he was supposed to
return to Quantico. Hicks was
at a crossroads, and decided to
pursue the job and relationship
rather than a military career.
But he didnt get the job, and
eventually the relationship
ended as well.
He took a job selling sports
calendars for schools and universities, but didnt like it.
Six months after graduating
college, he was unemployed
and living back home with his
mom, watching as a delivery
man installed a dishwasher,
when the phone rang.
I just bought a newspaper
in Kansas. Would you be interested in running it for me?
said a voice on the other end.
Hicks assumed it was a
friend playing a joke, and he
went along with it until he
realized it was a serious offer.
The man on the phone was Don
Stimble, a newspaper publisher
and fellow Mizzou grad who
had learned of Hicks from the
universitys placement office.
Hicks drove 80 miles in a
snowstorm to meet Stimble for
lunch in Springfield, Mo. They
hit it off, and he accepted the
job. A few years later, when
Hicks was just 26, he bought the
paper from Stimble.
Before he took the job, Hicks
had never heard of Garnett. On
his first visit, he was impressed
by the lakes, town square and
various activities not usually
found in communities that size.
I thought it was amazing
you could have this much stuff
in a town that was this small,
he said.
When he first started, Hicks
was the papers only reporter
and photographer, as well as
managing editor. His experience with Mac computers in
college helped him adjust to the
new world of desktop publishing. Adjusting to the new community, however, had more
ups and downs.
If youre a genetic outsider,
its probably a little easier to be
that guy who is the messenger
that people want to kill, he
said. But a lot of times, youre
the least believable because
you are the outsider.
With his young, brash personality, Hicks often found
himself at odds with the established leaders in the community. Buoyed by publishers of
newspapers in other Kansas
communities, Hicks Review
took an early and aggressive
stand on the issue of open meetings and open records. In the
early to mid-1990s, the newspaper frequently clashed with
the county commission over
the states open meetings laws,
resulting in the newspaper filing a lawsuit against the county and a couple of attorney generals opinions issued in other
matters.
They didnt like some punk
kid coming in and throwing his
weight around, he said.
His style had costs, he said.
The paper supported construction of a new high school in
USD 365 the first in 70 years
and it was extremely divisive,
like other issues surrounding
the local hospital, rail trail,
a physicians office complex
built by the city for the local
hospital after county commissioners refused among others. There were advertising
boycotts of the paper and cancelled subscriptions and angry
letters, some signed and some
unsigned. But when it came to
asking residents to speak up
or challenge local authorities
on various topics, Hicks said
he discovered a general reluctance and lack of courage.
People are terrified of what
their neighbors might think of
them. As a rule, people here
are petrified about being talked
about or having someone think
ill of them, he said. I heard
it a million times, Dont tell
anyone I told you this, or You
didnt hear it from me.
Despite their reluctance to
be quoted, people often sought
the newspaper and Hicks help
to bring light to an issue.
They need the newspaper
to help them fight those battles, Hicks said. As a general
rule, theyll complain about the
newspaper editor or ignore us
altogether, but when someone
wants to put a pig farm next to
your house, all the sudden having the newspaper on your side
is a big thing.
I didnt mind. I sort of liked
the attention. Id rather be
spanked than ignored.
Hicks says the apparent big
issues gave him few regrets.
Its always worth it to do
the right thing, he said.
The things I regret the most
are the times we got it wrong,
the times we made mistakes,
Hicks said. To be a reputable
newspaper you have to get the
facts right, from spelling somebodys name right to telling the
story accurately. If you cant
do that right you cant expect
people to trust you. To me those
are the big things. Those are
the things I lose sleep over.
Hicks credited a core of
supportive and tolerant advertisers and readers, as well as
his staff some have worked
for the company more than 25
years for the companys survival.
If not for them I wouldnt
have made it, he said.
Changing culture
Hicks remembers touring
the old IOOF building, now the
site of Maloans Bar and Grille,
with Bob Archer several years
ago. Between 30 and 40 robes
still hung in the large meeting
room where IOOF members
gathered decades before. Hicks
thought of the similarly large
meeting room in another nearby building that housed the
Masons, and various community organizations and bands that
once boasted high numbers of
participants.
I asked him, Bob, where
did all these people come from?
And he said, Thats just what
you did back then. There wasnt
no TV.
Technology has opened
countless avenues for people to
connect with others across the
world and access more information than ever before. But
as a result, more people have
become disconnected from the
local community, Hicks said.
One of the two breadwinners works a job out of town,
and unless your kid has a
music concert at school, you
come home, turn on the TV,
let down your garage door, and
youre cut off from the community until you do it again the
next day, he said. You dont
see people locked arm in arm
with community events like
you used to.
In a similar way, Hicks sees
people turn to social media and
lighter intellectual fare rather
than using the vast array of
available information to gather knowledge. He is concerned
that it is creating an information division in society even
more powerful than the economic division.
Its easier to post what you
had for breakfast on Facebook
than to figure out whats going
on in the Gaza Strip. More good
information is available now
than it ever has been, but people dont choose it, he said.
The smartest people read
newspapers. People who feel
like their opinions dont matter gravitate toward the sugary
crap of social media.
Newspapers have suffered
from two devastating blows,
Hicks said. The first was creating the idea that reading
the newspaper is a type of leisure activity, rather than an
essential part of education.
Americans pride themselves
on having a strong work ethic,
leaving little time for leisure,
he said.
The other big hit came in
2009, when the U.S. economy
entered a recession. For perhaps the first time, national
woes impacted the local economy on a large scale. Recovery
has been slow, and Hicks predicts this is the new normal,
as people are reluctant to spend
money.
Hes also concerned about
the decreasing number of small
businesses in the local community. The population has
remained relatively steady, as
people enjoy the benefits of living in a small town, but more
and more need to leave the
community to find well-paying
jobs.
Were doing a poor job of job
creation in this community,
Hicks said. Because of that
decline in the business community, combined with so much
interaction with businesses
like Amazon and Craigslist,
plus the fact that a lot of people
have moved into the area that
dont have local ties, theres
less connection to the community, less cohesiveness, Hicks
said. That failing economic
focus dilutes what was once a
closer community, Hicks said.
Fewer people act like they
have a stake in what goes on
here. When theres some crisis
people who are affected a lot of
times feel neglected by the community, but the truth is they
werent very connected to it in
the first place because of all the
opportunities to be connected
somewhere else.
A crystal ball
Hicks said newspapers will
continue to be viable as long
as they provide dependable,
accurate and compelling information, whether in print or
electronic form. Small town
newspapers will continue to
fare better financially than big
city dailies, Hicks said, and big
dailies will continue to redraft
their stories and their coverage to be more like small town
papers. In the end, he said, its
all about money.
What we see is that advertisers will still buy advertising
in the newspaper, but if we tell
them we want them to spend
the same money on Facebook
posts or website ads or Twitter,
they dont see the value in
that, Hicks said. If we could
have gotten away with closing
our presses and just publishing
online, wed have done that 15
years ago.
Its the advertisers that
still make our business model
work, he said. Thats why
you dont see stand-alone news
organizations in the electronic
world unless therere add-ons
to existing conventional media
or theyre funded by corporate
or political interests. At the
end of the day someone still
has to pay the reporters, writers, editors, photographers
and everyone else, Hicks said.
He said theres no electronic
model that makes that work
on its own, because readers
expect the Internet to be free,
and advertisers wont pay those
same fees for what they see is
cheaper and more unreliable
readership.
At 52, Hicks said he looks forward to another 10 years or so
before retirement. He and his
wife Barb have two daughters,
the second of which should be
out of college in a decade.
At that point things get a
lot more flexible, Hicks said.
But Im healthy and I still
have fun doing this every day.

EDITORIAL
Rand Paul and the silent alarm
Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky hit
the congressional nail right on the head.
It was over a trillion dollars, he
said of the recent omnibus spending
bill passed by Congress in a New York
radio interview. Two thousand-two
hundred forty-two pages. Nobody read
it, so, frankly my biggest complaint is
that I have no idea what kind of things
they stuck in the bill. I voted against it
because I wont vote for these enormous
bills that no one has a chance to read.
Paul said Congressmen and Senators
were given the bill the day before it came
up for a vote. They were expected to
come up with an idea of support or opposition in that amount of time. His point
is illustrative of the enormity and uncontrollability of federal spending, but his
siren call will end up like so many others
in the end just a silent alarm.
It was more than three decades ago
that President Ronald Reagan, illustrating the enormous size of government and
its law-making impact on peoples lives,
heaved a reams-thick copy of the federal
budget onto a table adjoining his speech
podium during an address to the nation.
The size of our government and the
amount of federal spending is unfathomable to most of us. A trillion dollars? Two
trillion? Five trillion? Eleven trillion? To
those of us who are asked for our votes
every two or six years to elect the people
who pass these budgets, the concept is
not within our grasp.
Paul makes the point the size of government certainly the size of the omnibus bill is the fault of Republicans and
Democrats alike. It has been for decades.
In these days when Bob Dole, the regaled
patron saint of Republican moderates,
is lauded for being able to reach across
the aisle and negotiate with Democrats,
it is fair to remember those negotiations
were nothing more than agreements to
throw a little bacon to both sides and
spend money we didnt have in the first
REVIEW COMMENTARY

place. Another charge on a credit card no
one really knows how to pay off.
Indeed, federal spending is estimated
at 20 percent of our economy 20 percent
of the value of every product and service
produced in our country comes from the
federal government. Thats 20 cents out
of every dollar that circulates.
The immensity is easier to explain
in household terms. If we could ratchet
back federal spending by 25 percent in
other words slice a nickel out of that 20
cents of every circulating dollar the
shockwave itself would cause recessionary threats if not coupled by the replacement of that nickel from the real economy.
This question is the one that haunts
public policy in general in this country,
not to mention the upcoming elections in
2016.
However abstract and debatable
among parties and candidates, the
impact of the analysis is quite real. The
immensity of the numbers is staggering,
and the idea that our elected leaders are
expected to play fast-and-loose with the
details, approve spending measures just
to solve the big problems and ignore all
the attached unknowns, would be legally actionable if taxpayers had the same
rights stock holders in publicly-owned
corporations have.
Rand Pauls comments were dead on.

Climate make-believe in Paris
Saving the planet has never been so easy.
The Paris climate talks concluded in a rousing round of self-congratulation over an agreement that, we are told, is the first step toward
keeping Earth habitable. If generating headlines and press releases about making history
were the metric for anything, Paris might be as
consequential — if misbegotten — as advertised.
The fact is that Paris is very meta. The agreement is about the agreement, never mind whats
in it or what its true legal force is — namely, nil.
Paris is a legally binding agreement not to have
legally binding limits on emissions. It might
be the most worthless piece of paper since the
Kellogg-Briand Pact outlawed war — about a
decade prior to the outbreak of World War II.
The Paris summit operated on the principle of CBDRILONCWRC, or Common but
Differentiated Responsibility in Light of
National Circumstances With Respective
Capability. That means nothing was actually mandated on anyone because that proved
— understandably enough, dealing with all the
countries in the world — completely unworkable.
Instead, countries came up with so-called
Intended Nationally Determined Contributions.
Thats climate bureaucratese for You make up
your emissions target, whatever it is, and we
will pretend to take it seriously. Thus, do the
waters recede and Earth is saved from looming
climate catastrophe.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
President Barack Obama praised 180 countries for coming to Paris with serious climate
targets in hand. This was ridiculous climate
grade inflation. As Oren Cass of the Manhattan
Institute points out, Pakistan produced a onepage document promising to reduce its emissions after reaching peak levels to the extent
possible. For this we needed a headline-grabbing global confab?
No one will mistake Pakistan for an industrial juggernaut. How about China, the worlds
largest carbon emitter? It promises to reach
peak emissions around 2030, when one U.S.
government study estimates that it would hit
peak admissions anyway, Cass notes. The more
China promises to confront climate change, the
more it stays the same.
Indias assurance that it will make a roughly
30 percent improvement in carbon intensity
is, according to Cass, also about where it was
projected to be headed anyway. India still wants
to double its output of coal by 2020. As The
Guardian put it, India says coal provides the
cheapest energy for rapid industrialization that
would lift millions out of poverty. India would
be correct.
The agreements celebrants believe that by
making countries report their progress on cutting carbon emissions and by sending a stern
signal against fossil fuels, Paris will catalyze
painful cuts in carbon emissions somewhere off
in the future. It speaks to a naive belief in the
power of global shame over the sheer economic
interest of developing countries in getting rich
(and lifting countless millions out of poverty)
through exploiting cheap energy — you know,
the way Western countries have done for a couple of centuries.
If this is the best hope of the climate alarmists, their global campaign will be a welcome
fizzle. All things considered, it probably is best
that they occupy themselves with grand meetings and with the exertions attendant to believing their own PR. Otherwise they could do real
damage.

Davis supporters could impact election
Were now thinking that there are almost two
dozen Kansas House Republicans and eight GOP senators who are wondering as Christmas approaches
whether theres going to be a hole in their stockings in
next years elections when voters drop their votes into
the ballot box.
The question? Its simply whether the top of the
ballot is going to have an effect on their race and their
chance to return to the Statehouse after the election.
Those House and Senate Republicans? They are
the ones who won election but represent districts that
Republican Gov. Sam Brownback lost to Democratic
challenger Rep. Paul Davis, D-Lawrence.
For legislative candidates, theres nothing quite as
nice as voters making their party affiliation clear at
the top of the ballot, or at least near the top where state
office candidates are listed, and then figuring, well, if
we like the governor, we probably ought to send some
friends of his to work with him in the Legislature.
Except for those 23 Republican House and eight
Senate members who won their election in districts
where the majority of their voters checked the Paul
Davis box.
Makes it look like there maybe isnt that top of the
ballot and down party solidarity that most party members like.
Sure, there are those voters who like to view themselves as pretty cosmopolitan, not being stuck with
just one party. And, there are those voters who maybe
were startled by the governors motorcycle roaring
beside them and decided that mufflers are almost as
important as school finance technicalities.
Now there are, of course, those House and Senate
members who got elected before Brownback was first
elected in 2010, and who spend the time and effort
to get to know their constituents. Those lucky few
are multi-term regulars, they havent done anything
offensive to their districts and maybe have been lucky
enough to get their constituents things they want,
whether its a highway off-ramp or keeping the state
STATE COMMENTARY

offices open in the district.
So, were probably going to see a new style of
campaigning this year on the legislative level, where
almost everything that Brownback has gotten accomplished in the past five sessionssix by the time the
voters head to the polls next yearbecomes a potential
campaign issue.
Do you want to stand next to Brownback for a
photograph that will be distributed in a district that
voted in the majority against him? Do you want to
take credit for supporting him on an issue or two that
have some local interest, or do you want to take credit
for voting against issues that the guy who lost the vote
among your constituents tried to get passed?
With the governor not standing for re-election and
essentially getting to cruise through the rest of his
term, where do Republicans go?
Is there the chance that legislators who saw Davis
win in their districts find something that they can
challenge the governor on? Like maybe those tax cuts
that the governor championed. Or do they stick with
Brownback and figure that voters know that hes going
to be there for a couple more years and it is in their
constituents best interests to stay on his good side?
Frankly, there arent many in the Statehouse who
are certain which is the best tack.
Did Republicans who won in districts that Davis
carried show independence from the governor, or
did they just get lucky because they tossed candy to
the right children and grandchildren in the summer
parades? Did Democratic candidates in those districts
just not link tightly enough with Davis to ride his
victory in the district to the Statehouse? Or were those
Davis votes merely acting out by Republicansand
the figures are that many Republicans crossed their
party line to vote for Davis.
And, there is always the chance that Kansans
are seeing the governors office as a distinct level of
government not directly tied to the Legislature. The
governor proposes, the Legislature disposes. Sorta
that separation of powers business, isnt it?
Were not going to know for 11 months, but that
schism for Republicans in districts carried by Davis
may show up on the floor of the House and Senate next
session, and look for party-line voting in each chamber (with, of course, the moderate Republican but
not-quite-Democrat contingent) to thin a bit. This may
be the election when for many candidates it makes
political sense to frustrate the governoreven of their
own partyif it will draw support from voters who
will likely never see the name Brownback on another
ballot.
And look also for the top-top of the ballot presidential race to shift some votes but it generally isnt
tactically clever to link a House or Senate race to a
president who will spend more time flying across
Kansas than actually standing in the state.

really need to start paying attention better.
It was state, not the city, that changed the
election dates. It would have been stupid
to pay for two elections in the same year,
and when was the last time somebody actually ran for city commission here anyway?
They always get appointed when someone
quits. Like who would want that job anyway? But it wasnt them that made the decision it was the state. You need to pay better
attention before printing your thoughts in
the newspaper.
I wanted to add my applause to that of the
parents and the rest in the audience at our
local school concerts in the last few weeks.
The choral groups and the bands in our
local high schools and the teachers who
instruct them have done a truly blessed job.
Such talent and enthusiasm for teaching
and learning music. It has been the perfect
prescription for these cloudy days and the
woes of this old world.
I read Mr. Hicks article a while back about
the people building houses in the country
and how there were so many more of them
than the ones that had been built in Garnett
over the years. It makes sense to me that
people who have the money want to live
in the country where there is more room
and wide open spaces and a wonderful view
of the sunrise and the sunset. Just look at
the prices some of these farms and pieces
of acreage have been selling for in recent
years small fortunes. How many people
do you think are going to want to spend
this kind of money to buy acreage if there
are wind farms here? How many people do
you think are going to want to build houses
out in the country if their wonderful view is
blocked by big, ugly wind farms? Will people
then want to build their houses in Garnett
instead of out in the country? No, they will
build them and buy land still in the country
but this time somewhere around Ottawa
or Iola or Mound City where you cant see
wind farms. Thank you.

Quilt guild awards prizes to Challenge participants
The Pieces & Patches Quilt
Guild was called to order by
President, Bonnie Deiter on
November 19, 2015 at 9:30am at
the Anderson County Extension
meeting room. Roll call was
answered by 28 members. The
minutes of the October meeting
were approved as printed in the
newsletter. Terrie Gifford gave
the treasurers report.
Bonnie thanked the members for signing up for the various committees and the list
for the upcoming year was
again circulated and members
encouraged to indicate if they
would be the committee chairman. A thank you was extended to LouAnn Shmidl for doing
the name tags for new members.
Committee reports:
Program -Sandra Moffatt
listed the following upcoming
programs: December 17 the
Christmas luncheon; January a
Charity quilt sew in; February
Judy Vore will do a trunk show
and a class on Stack & Whack.
Sandra suggested that there
be a charge of $20 for those taking the Stack & Whack class.
Anderson County Fair
Terrie Gifford reported that
Nancy Schuster will no longer
fund the assembly of a quilt
from the fair challenge blocks.
The 4-H Council has agreed
to donate $160 towards a quilt
which should cover the backing, additional fabric and the
quilting. No final decision has
been made about challenge
blocks in upcoming fairs and
whether to raffle or auction the
completed quilts. The guild
will await further information
from the 4-H Council.
Block of the Month
Several members showed their
blocks from the September and
October patterns. Judy Stukey
showed the November block,
Celtic Twist, and distributed
the pattern.
Challengemembers who
had completed the challenge
displayed their articles and

and prizes were awarded to the
top four. Winners were: 1st
Marvelle Harris; 2nd Connie
Hatch; 3rd Sandra Moffatt and
4th Judy McArdle.

Old BusinessBonnie
asked for discussion about
the Secret Sister activity and
stressed that it is a voluntary
activity. After some discussion
it was a consensus of the members to continue to give their
Secret Sister a birthday gift, a
card to reveal in December and
donate to the quilt rack fund if
desired.
Bonnie reported that she
had reviewed some of the scrap
books to determine the quilt
history.
There was discussion about
donating the scrap books to the
Historical society but it would
be nice to index names someway to assist those researching
an individual. There was a
suggestion to contact the High
School computer class to see if
they could assist with scanning
the information so the guild
would maintain a record of the
history.

reported that Carrie Rulon
has resigned as the Newsletter

her service. Melissa Dodd has
volunteered to assume that

Is God real to you?
Is God real to you? God
made himself known to many
individuals in the Bible. In
Genesis 12 God said to Abram;
Leave your country, your
people and your fathers household and go to the land I will
show you. The only details
God provided to Abram were,
I will make you into a great
nation and I will bless you.
Based on this Abram left as
God had told him to and began
a journey that would result in
him becoming the first great
patriarch of ancient Israel and
a primary model of faithfulness
for Christianity.
The promise God made to
Abram must have seemed
unbelievable to him because
his wife Sarai was childless
and past the age of child bearing, but Abram obeyed Gods
request.
Moses was another man that
experienced a dramatic call to
ministry from God. Moses call
was given at the Burning Bush
in the wilderness near Mount
Sinai. The Lord revealed to
Moses his intention to deliver
Israel from Egyptian captivity into a land flowing with
milk and honey, which God
had promised centuries before
to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
God spoke to Moses from the
midst of a burning bush, but
Moses doubted it was God who
spoke. To confirm to Moses
it was God speaking to him
Moses was told to cast his
shepherds rod on the ground.
Instantly his rod became a serpent. What followed was the

battle of the sovereign God of
the universe and the sovereign
man of this world, Pharaoh.
Gods call to you or I may
never be as dramatic as his
call to Abram and Moses. But
I can tell you this, God has not
nor will he forget about you. It
is a personal choice whether
you live life denying the existence of God, believing in God
to some degree or like Abram
and Moses accepting the call of
God. Many people hear the call
of God but it never takes root
in their heart. The only way to
change a man is to change his
heart.
Abram and Moses were
asked to do great things but the
first thing they had to do was
believe God was real. Is God
real to you? You have to make
a choice. No choice is a rejection of God. If you accept Gods
call to salvation made possible
by the sacrificial death of Jesus
Christ on the cross you will
be saved to eternal salvation.
If you have heard the call of
God but have not accepted it
in your heart consider when
you pillow your head tonight
the sound the clock is making.
That is the sound of your life
and mine ebbing away.

Remembering a
Christmas poem
As many of you know, I love
poetry and I always love a special poem at Christmas.
This poem is about childhood memories. God Bless all
the mothers in this world, and
may all your Christmases be
ones to remember.
MAMAS CHRISTMAS
MIRACLE
Mama told me a story a long,
long time ago, not like any Id
ever heard,
all about a little girl mama
used to know, how I remember
every word.
Seems like a lifetime ago,
though I remember it so well,
it was a Christmas Eve Ill
never forget as far as I can tell.
We were sitting at the kitchen table, it was only my mother
and me,
I was dreaming of Christmas
morning and all the presents
under the tree.
Dad wasnt doing that well
and money was scarce that
year,
Mama found a way of telling
me without me shedding a tear.
She told me a story of a little
girl and a Christmas long ago,
who came from far away, a
place where it rarely snowed.
Santa was just a dream to
her, but she believed so much
inside,
that Christmas was going to
be special, so she knelt by her
bed and cried.
Lord, let Santa remember
me if not just this one time.
I promise I wont ask for
much, maybe a dolly I can call
all mine.
She closed her prayer and
thanked the Lord for all that
she received,
she knew that Santa would
really come if only she believed.
She wrote a letter to Santa,
unfamiliar to most girls and
boys,
though her list was long and
full, on it there were no toys.
Only things we take for
granted, like new shoes and
underpants,
hair bows for her sisters and

gloves to warm her brothers
hands.
At the bottom of her list she
asked, if it not be too much,
for a brand new baby doll
she could hold and love and
touch.
Then Christmas morning
came and she looked beneath
her tree,
not a present to be found as
far as she could see.
She didnt give up hope as
she heard a knocking sound,
when she opened up her
door, a great big box she found.
She called out to her mother
and dad, brothers and sisters
too,
She said, My prayers were
answered, theres something in
here for all of you.
Her daddy got brand new
boots, her mother new underpants,
her sisters got beautiful
hair bows, her brothers warm
gloves for their hands.
Buried deep beneath the box
was a brand new baby doll and
a note,
that said, Merry Christmas,
I Love you one and all.
Ill never forget that story,
because much to my surprise,
I saw the true meaning of
Christmas shining in my mothers eyes.
For those of you who are
wondering, as if you didnt
know,
The little girl in Mamas
story was my mother long ago.

afraid. 2:10 And the angel said unto
them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring
you good tidings of great joy, which
shall be to all people. 2:11 For unto
you is born this day in the city of
David a Saviour, which is Christ
the LORD. 2:12 And this shall
be a sign unto you; Ye shall find
the Babe wrapped in swaddling
clothes, lying in a manger. 2:13
And suddenly there was with the
angel a multitude of the heavenly
host praising God, and saying, 2:14
Glory to God in the highest, and on
earth peace, good will toward men.
2:15 And it came to pass, as the
angels were gone away from them
into Heaven, the shepherds said
one to another, Let us now go even
unto Bethlehem, and see this thing
which is come to pass, which the
LORD hath made known unto us.
2:16 And they came with haste, and
found Mary, and Joseph, and the
Babe lying in a manger. 2:17 And
when they had seen it, they made
known abroad the saying which
was told them concerning this
Child. 2:18 And all they that heard
it wondered at those things which
were told them by the shepherds.
2:19 But Mary kept all these things,
and pondered them in her heart.
2:20 And the shepherds returned,
glorifying and praising God for all
the things that they had heard and
seen, as it was told unto them.
2:21 And when eight days were
accomplished for the circumcising
of the Child, His Name was called
JESUS, which was so named of the
angel before He was conceived in
The Story of the Birth of
Christ As told through
Matthew
Matthew 1:16 And Jacob begat
Joseph the husband of Mary, of
whom was born Jesus, Who is
called Christ. 1:17 So all the generations from Abraham to David
are fourteen generations; and from
David until the carrying away into
Babylon are fourteen generations;
and from the carrying away into
Babylon unto Christ are fourteen
generations. 1:18 Now the birth
of Jesus Christ was on this wise:
When as His mother Mary was
espoused to Joseph, before they
came together, she was found with
Child of the Holy Ghost. 1:19 Then
Joseph her husband, being a just
man, and not willing to make her a
public example, was minded to put
her away privily. 1:20 But while he
thought on these things, behold,
the angel of the LORD appeared
unto him in a dream, saying,
Joseph, thou son of David, fear not
to take unto thee Mary thy wife:
for That which is conceived in her
is of the Holy Ghost. 1:21 And she
shall bring forth a Son, and thou
shalt call His Name JESUS: for He
shall save His people from their
sins. 1:22 Now all this was done,
that it might be fulfilled which
was spoken of the LORD by the
prophet, saying, 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with Child, and shall
bring forth a Son, and they shall
call His Name Emmanuel, which
being interpreted is, God With Us.

when he had privily called the wise
men, inquired of them diligently
what time the Star appeared. 2:8
And he sent them to Bethlehem,
and said, Go and search diligently
for the young Child; and when ye
have found Him, bring me word

WIND FARM…
FROM PAGE 1A
the county in early November
to determine regulatory
requirements regarding wind
farms. County zoning places a
number of regulations on wind
farms, and require a special
use permit be issued before a
wind turbine can be constructed.
Not anybody there seemed
to be real excited about it,
Howarter said.
Wind farms can be quite
controversial. Supporters say
such farms provide a renewable source of energy, provide
farmers with another way to
monetize natural resources,
and boost the economy with
jobs and lease payments to
landowners. Opponents say
construction of the wind turbines damages the land and
replaces the scenic landscape
with tall, ugly turbines. They
argue utility companies are
forced to buy the wind energy
and pass on rate increases to
customers because of it.
The wind farm saga has
played out in nearby Coffey
County, where Kansas Wind
Energy is building around 95
turbines south of Waverly,
with many turbines near the
Anderson County line. The turbines are visible from many
areas in western Anderson
County. No significant organized opposition ever developed around that project.
Calpine Coporation is
Americas largest generator
of electricity from natural
gas and geothermal resources, according to promotional
material passed out by the
company at the meeting. The
Anderson County wind project is expected to take between
three and five years. Ideally,
the company would locate the
wind farm along a ridge that
runs roughly parallel to U.S.
169 from Greeley toward Bush
City. It would consist of about
100 turbines, each about 500
feet tall, spread out over roughly 1,000 acres.
Commissioner Howarter
said he and other commissioners werent surprised to
hear that an energy company
wanted to build a wind farm in
Anderson County. Kansas is a
windy state, and wind farms
are growing in popularity
across the state and nation.
We werent surprised by
it, but we were surprised by
the location, Howarter said.
They chose one of the most
populous areas of the county.
At the meeting, the company offered a map showing
the best locations for turbines.
Landowners in some of those
prime areas have received preliminary lease agreement information. Under the proposed
agreements, landowners would
receive about $6,000 annually
per turbine, plus other compensation if appropriate, for about
55 years.
Mike Burns, a local business and property owner who
is opposed to the wind farm,
said he is concerned about the
restrictions placed on landowners, such as notifying
the company 72 hours before
someone wants to hunt on the
property, plus providing information about anyone who is
on the property. There would
be restrictions on where you
could build or access mineral
rights, he said. Several of his
properties are under consideration by Calpine as prime locations for turbines.
They will have clear,
unabated access to your property for the entire term of the
lease – 24/7, 365 days a year for
55 years. And you dont, Burns
said.
Burns also said he was concerned about the impact on the
countys economy and property
values. He also said he worries
the issue could become divisive, pitting landowners who
want the wind farm against
neighbors who dont. Some

In the Matter of the Estate of
ROZENA SMITHERAN, Deceased
Case No. 15-PR-28
NOTICE OF HEARING
THE STATE OF KANSAS TO ALL
PERSONS CONCERNED:
You are hereby notified that a petition
has been filed in this court by Claudia A.
Smitheran, one of the heirs at law of Rozena
C. Smitheran, deceased, praying that descent
be determined of decedents interest in certain
Anderson County, Kansas, real estate particularly described in said petition and of all other
Kansas real estate and all personal property
landowners might welcome
additional income of $6,000 per
year, but the turbines could
impede on a neighbors abiity
to enjoy their land, he said.
Potentially, that could lead to
arguments and even lawsuits,
Burns said.
He said the turbines essentially are mini-power plants,
and as such should be considered for zoning as industrial
use. He objects to the requirement that only a special use
permit is necessary, rather
than a full zoning classification
for industrial use.
When I bought my property
I didnt bargain on having a
power plant next to me, Burns
said. If the county commission
and planning and zoning board
members dont listen to what
the neighbors say, its going to
be a travesty.
Josh Nelson, who owns land
next to Burns property, said
he is concerned how the wind
farm would affect his property
value and ability to build on his
land. At some point, he would
like to build a house at the
highest point on his land. If a
wind turbine is nearby, he isnt
sure that would be possible.
Were not against wind or
solar, Nelson added. I wish
there was a way we could use
wind and solar in an efficient
manner. What I think people
are concerned about is, theres
no real benefit to our county
from Day 1. If they were paying taxes it might help more
than just a few landowners.
Its not enough of a benefit to
ruin some of the most beautiful
property in Anderson County.
Glenn Caldwell is another
property owner whose land
would be nearby if a wind farm
was constructed. Caldwell
shared many of the same concerns, but also said it would
affect his ability to fly and perform crop dusting services in

I dont want to change the
landscape for one thing, but
I also am a big proponent of
aviation in agriculture. We fly
at low levels and (wind farms)
present a hazard, Caldwell
said.
If constructed, a 100-turbine
wind farm would generate
about 200 megawatts of power,
which is enough to power more
than 50,000 homes. Typically, a
central operations center will
monitor the wind farm at all
times. The power would be sold
to KCP&L, which receives subsidies from the federal government to pay for it.
In May 2009, Kansas passed
the Renewable Portfolio
Standard that requires utilities to generate or purchase 20
percent of their energy from
renewal resources by 2020.
Wind is most often used for
the requirement, according to
the American Wind Energy
Association, however power
companies cant reduce coal
or other production since
full power capability is still
required if the wind doesnt
blow.
Garnett City Manager Joyce
Martin said the City of Garnett
would be able to purchase some
of the electricity generated by
the wind farm in Anderson
County, if it is constructed.
That would help the city meet
those portfolio requirements.
A Calpine official said
Monday it had not yet organized another meeting with
affected landowners.
Burns said he will continue to organize an opposition
group, and at some point plans
to have a meeting with speakers who have been affected by
the Waverly wind farm as well
as a landowner from Concordia
who agreed to lease property to
a wind farm and now regrets
the decision.

Westphalia basketball teams still learning Viking boys
The Westphalia junior high
basketball teams have played
seven games at this point. The
boys have one team this year
with a record at 1-6. They are
improving as a team learning
how to play together. We are
returning 6 boys from last year
and the other 4 are first year
players so there has been a lot
of learning during game time.
The girls have a B team
record of 5-2 and the A team
record of 4-3 game record at this
point right before Christmas
break. They have a lot of energy every day looking to get better individually and as a team.
They are improving passing
the ball to improve offensive
efficiency and getting to a
higher level of shooting free
throws that have been a factor
in two of those wins for both B
and A teams.

knock off Iola
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND The Central
Heights Vikings welcomed the
Iola Mustangs to town Tuesday
night and came away victorious
with a decisive 46-29 victory.
Central Heights edged Iola
11-7 in the first quarter. In a
second quarter that saw very
little offense, the Vikings had a
slight 5-3 advantage to open up
a 16-10 lead at halftime.
It was a mild offensive
explosion in the third after a
slow first half. Iola outscored
Central Heights 16-15 to surpass the entire first half production for both teams. This
cut the Vikings lead to 31-26 as
the teams entered the fourth
quarter.
Iola once again hit a funk
offensively and only scored
three points in the fourth period. The Vikings countered with
15 to pull away for a comfortable win.

AC Boys get much-needed win over Osawatomie
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
OSAWATOMIE – The Bulldogs
and Trojans traded blows for
four quarters, neither team
able to gain much of an advantage, in a tough 46-41 victory for
Anderson County Friday night.
Anderson County and
Osawatomie were tied 9-9
after the first period and the
Bulldogs had a slim one-point
lead, 20-19 at halftime.
The AC boys again played
solid defense in the third quar-
ter and outscored the Trojans
12-8 to open up a 5-point advantage heading into the final stanza.
Each team scored 14 points
in the fourth quarter, giving
the Bulldogs the win.
Nick Levy led the way with
17 points. Mason Skiles also
hit double figures with 13 and
Chase Ratliff added 8 points.
John Rundle scored 4 points,
Trey Ahring and Derrick
Nelson each had 2 points.

WELLSVILLE – The Central

the ball in the basket for much
of the game Friday night as the
Wellsville Eagles capitalized
on their way to a 42-30 victory.
Wellsville led 13-5 after the
first quarter and 21-10 at intermission. The third period say
the Vikings only able to muster
4 points and fall behind even
further, 30-14.
The fourth quarter saw a
little more offensive as the
Vikings knocked down 16
points and held Wellsville to 12.
Regan Markley had 13 points
and Emilee Sheldon added
6 points to lead the way for
Central Heights.
Bulldog boys suffer tough loss to Girard
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GIRARD The Anderson
County boys traveled to Girard
to take on the Trojans Tuesday
night and were sent home with
a hard fought 58-51 loss.
The Trojans jumped out to
an early 17-9 lead after the first
period. Girard let the Bulldogs
back into the game in the second quarter. The Bulldogs had
an 18-5 run in the period en
route to outscoring the Trojans
18-10, which knotted the score
at 27 heading into halftime.
An 8-2 run to begin the third
quarter proved to be the difference as the Trojans jumped out
of the gate quickly in the second half. The teams played the
game tight the rest of the way,
but the Bulldogs just couldnt
overcome that early spurt as
they went on to lose by 7.

and staff wish you and yours

Wellsville downs Central Height boys
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WELLSVILLE – The Central
Heights Vikings offensive
struggles in the second and
third quarter were too much to
overcome in a 46-34 loss to the
Wellsville Eagles.
Wellsville held a narrow 12-10
lead following the first quarter and the Eagles were able
to stretch that lead out to five
after the Vikings were held to
just three points in the second
quarter.
The Eagles dominated the
third quarter defensively
as they once again held the
Vikings to just three points,
but this time they countered
with 14 to give them a 32-16 lead
heading into the final quarter.
The Vikings offense woke up
as they scored 18 points in the
period to surpass their totals

from the first three quarters
combined. Wellsville scored 14
in the final frame to finish out
a solid victory.
Chase Brown led the way
with 15 points as he was the
only player to get into double
figures. Matt Percy chipped in
with 8 points and Alex Seyler
had 6. Cade Masingale and
Ethan Shields scored 3 and 2
points respectively.

Flag pole donated to ACH from Legion, Riders groups
GARNETT Patients and visitors at
Anderson County Hospital will now see
a new flag and flagpole, made possible
by a $2,500 donated from The Sons of
the American Legion and the Legion
Riders.
The flag, located near the entrance
of the hospital, is encased with natural
lime stone and features a bronze dedi-
cation plaque honoring the American
Legion Post 48, American Legion
Riders, Sons of the American Legion,
and American Legion Ladies Auxiliary.
The donation was presented to Denny
Hachenberg, CEO of Anderson County
Hospital, by Tracy Modlin, founder of
the riders group.

CRP sign up underway
The USDA Farm Service
Agency has announced the
49th general enrollment period
for the Conservation Reserve
Program (CRP). It began on
December 1, 2015 and will end
on February 26, 2016. This will
be an opportunity for producers to submit offers to re-enroll
land that expired from a previous CRP contract or to re-enroll an existing CRP contract
that will expire in September
of 2016. Interested producers
may also submit offers to enroll
eligible fields that are currently
not under a CRP contract.
Some of the basic eligibility
requirements are as follows:
A) Producer must have
owned or operated the land for
at least 12 months prior to close
of sign-up.
B) The land must be cropland
that was planted or considered
planted to an agricultural commodity 4 of the 6 years from
2008 to 2013.
C) Have a weighted average
erosion index of 8 or higher or
be expiring CRP acreage.
Offers may be submitted on
any acres that meet all of the
eligibility criteria noted above.
This may be a whole field or any
part of a field. General sign-up
offers are typically larger land
masses than the Continuous
CRP practices. General CRP
practices require the land to be
seeded to a permanent cover.
The most common practice is
a grass cover containing various species of grasses and some
forbs or legumes. Participants
will be given the opportunity
to choose which practice they
would like to install on their
land if accepted into the program. In exchange for seeding
the cover the program participant will receive an annual
rental payment during the 10 to
15 contract period. Participants
will also be able to receive assistance with the cost of installing
the practice. Cost share can
be paid on 50% of the eligible
actual cost incurred, but will be
limited to the county average
cost.
Interested parties will be
provided with the maximum
average rental rate that may
be offered when they come into
the office to enroll during the
sign-up period. The rate will
be reflective of the three predominate soil types contained
in the eligible acres of the offer.
The average soil rental rates
have increased from what was
approved in prior years. The
average soil rental rate for
the soils located in Anderson
County is $76.00 per acre.
CRP offers will be taken
until February 26, 2015, and
will be ranked according to the
Environmental Benefits Index
(EBI). FSA staff members will
explain the EBI ranking factors to allow each producer the
opportunity to maximize their
EBI score. After sign-up is complete, all offers are transmitted
to Washington DC for ranking
and to determine which offers
will be accepted for approval.
The Anderson County FSA
Office highly encourages producers who are interested in
submitting offers for CRP to
contact them IMMEDIATELY
to schedule an appointment.
Please keep in mind that all
offers must be submitted by
4:30 PM February 26, 2015. For
more details about the General
CRP sign-up or to schedule an
appointment, please contact the
Anderson County Farm Service
Agency located at 111 N. Maple,
Garnett, Kansas or call 785-4483128.

also made by two other community
members, Shawn Feuerborn of D & S

the dedication plaque.
We are so fortunate to have such
a supportive community and we are
honored to have such an attractive new
flagpole honoring our veterans and
the organizations that support them,
Hachenberg said. We want to thank
everyone who has supported this project and I know it will be an ongoing
source of community pride.

Ode to the business
card tombstone
Sometimes I look through
this big sample catalog of business cards weve printed at
our community newspaper in
Garnett, Ks., and Im amazed
at the number of start-up businesses for whom we printed
cards in our rural community
that didnt last.
And when businesses fail,
it all comes down to one reason, which is the whole basis
and title of this column they
didnt sell stuff or at least not
enough stuff.
The most common paths to
failure:
1) Do I look like a guy with
a plan? There are simply are
too many ways to fail not to
have a formal business plan,
no matter how smart you think
you are. You may be the best
donut maker in the continental U.S. and worked for other
donut makers most of your
life and are convinced youll
do it better than they did, but
if you cant sell your donuts
or go broke before you get a
chance to squeeze any icing,
itll never matter. Your state
department of commerce, local
colleges and universities, Small
Business Development Centers
and the U.S. Small Business
Administration have resources
to help you make a business
plan that are FREE or close to
free. Even a nominal fee for
their services will be worthwhile, because it will probably
keep you from failing or stop
you before you make a big mistake.
2) We dont need no stinking startup funds. The Federal
Communications Commission
used to require that applicants
for radio and television station
licenses have at least 90 days
operating funds on hand to be
considered in other words,
they had enough fund payrolls,
train a sales force, run promotions, buy equipment, etc., to
operate the whole station for
three months without a penny
of revenue from sales. Its a
good benchmark to set if youre
going into business. One of the
primary reasons for failure in
HOW TO SELL STUFF
Dane Hicks
Review Publisher
small business is that theyre
undercapitalized from the start,
with barely enough money
to get the rented doors open,
much less operate during their
establishment phase.
3) Dont tell anybody.
Marketing is advertising, promotion, public relations and
personal sales. If you ignore
them, youre going to fail. You
have to work on marketing just
as hard as you have to work
on producing your product or
sweeping the floor. These will
be a mainstay of your business
plan, each aimed in its own
way at the identified niche of
buyers youre targeting. Most
likely 20 percent of your customers will produce 80 percent
of your sales your marketing
efforts should heavily focus on
these 20 percent. Marketing
is more than buying business
cards and hiding them in your
desk. If you dont actively market your business according
to your defined plan and work
that angle of your business constantly, you will most likely
fail. It doesnt matter how great
your donuts are if you dont sell
them.
People stake too much
money, too much energy and
too much of their future going
into business to fail as easily as they do. Plan ahead and
be savvy, and dont be another
business card tombstone.

Bulldogs rely on experience for big improvement
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – The Anderson
County Bulldog boys return a
wealth of experience and are
hoping the growing pains from
last seasons inexperienced
team will pay off in a big way.
Head Coach Steve Lyon
returns for his 4th season leading the Bulldogs. Last season
AC had a record of 5-16 but
Lyon will be blessed with nine
players that lettered a year ago,
including six seniors. Seniors
Derrick Nelson, Jacob Rundle,
Mason Skiles DAnthony
Fredricks, and Trey Ahring are
joined by juniors Nick Levy
and Trevor Johnston and sophomore John Rundle.
Things get kicked off quickly with a tough group of games
in December.
We play several bigger
schools, Lyon said, but this
tough scheduling will be helpful in January and February.
I have high hopes for this season. The boys have been working hard in practice.
Lyon and the team have big
goals this season. Winning the
league and earning a top seed
at the substate tournament are
the priorities.

Experienced
Crest boys strive
for League title
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – The Crest Lancer
boys are a senior-laden
team that head coach Travis
Hermreck will rely on heavily
in the upcoming season as they
have lofty goals they want to
achieve.
Hermreck is in his 10th season as a coach for the Lancers
and states, The time is now.
There are no more next years
for them, when talking about
the group of seniors on his
team.
Seniors Hunter Frazell,
Evan Godderz, Kellen Ramsey,
Brandon Brailler, Garrett Sipe,
and Colton Strickler will be
joined by sophomores Gage
Adams, Hayden Seabolt, Caleb
Stevens and Austin Hendrix as
returning letterman from last
years 12-9 squad. The Lancers
fared much better in league
play as they finished 7-1 and in
2nd place overall.
Despite
losing
Austin
Green from last season, coach
Hermreck expects his big group
of seniors be able to step in and
fill that void. Seniors Frazell,
Godderz, Brailler, Ramsey and
Sipe will all be in the starting
lineup.
For us to be at our best, we
have to beat our opponents in
the intangibles categories,
coach Hermreck said. This is
why we are lucky that we have
so many seniors.
Getting loose balls, toughness, cohesion, and effort will
help this team compete in every
game. This will be especially

loaded with 2A and 3A schools,
as well as perennial powerhouses like Olpe, Humboldt and
Lebo.
The tough early season
schedule should help tremendously as the team gets into
league play where they have
the goal of bringing home the
league championship this year.
An even loftier goal is for the
team to head to Hays, Kansas
in March for the state tournament.
Lancer girls
are young,
inexperienced
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – It sounds clich, but
this very young Crest Lancer
team is just looking to get better each and every game. Only
eight girls are on the team this
season and half of them are
freshmen.
Head coach Elaine Holloway
is in her 2nd year coaching the
Lancers and is joined by assistant coach Kristen Boone.
Holloway stated, We are
young, but these girls have a
great attitude and also a great
team dynamic.
The Lancers finished 3-15
last season, but due to injures
and illnesses the team had to
forfeit 5 games.
Juniors Laurel Godderz and
Miranda Golden are the only
upper classmen with returning
experience. Sophomore Makala
Jones joins them as the only
returning letter winner from a
year ago.

We are young and small so

Second-year Vikings head coach expects growing pains
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – Head Coach Doug
North has 28 years of coaching under his belt and returns
for his 2nd year leading the
Central Heights Vikings boys
basketball squad following a
3-18 record a year ago.
Key returners this season
for the Vikings are seniors
Matt Percy, Merrick Brown
and Cade Masingale. Chase
Brown and Gavin Holler are
the key losses that the underclassmen will be expected to
step up and fill their void.
A large group of guys will
be vying for playing time this
season. Senior Jared Oshel
along with juniors Cameron
Hampton, Ethan Shields and
Wyatt Thompson are the
upperclassmen. They will be
joined by sophomores Seth
Burroughs, Alex Seyler, Jake
Dunnivan and Coyd Gardner.
Staying positive and improving throughout the early parts
of the season are going to be
key says head coach North, As
young as we are, we need to get
better as the year progresses.
There will be some growing
pains as they learn. Staying
positive and being willing to
learn is vital.
Our
three
returning
seniors have been great leaders
so far and will need to continue
to do so. We will be playing
a much more traditional style
than what we played last year.
It will be vital that we defend
well and get better defensively
as the year progresses. North
stated. We need our younger
players to seize the opportunity
to be able to contribute on the
varsity level.

Viking girls hope
to find success
playing faster
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – Scott Lane, in his
6th season as head coach of the
Central Heights Vikings girls,
is hoping his team builds on
the late season success of last
years team.
Last year the Lady Vikings
finished the season 9-12 but
Lane was encouraged at how
his team finished the year.
I thought we improved
more than any other team I
have coached over the course
of the year, 11 year coaching
veteran Lane stated.
Senior Regan Markley, who
was first team all-league last
season, will be relied on heavily
to repeat last seasons success.
Point guards Sarah Bell and
Emilee Sheldon will try to make
life easier on Markley inside.
With the depth at point guard
the Vikings will be looking to
play faster this season and try
and get to the rim more than
they have in the past.
We have some tough competition based on the fact that
we play a lot of 4A teams. I
think Wellsville and Anderson
County will be two of the better teams in the league with
Iola not too far behind them,
Coach Lane said when asked
about the level of competition
this season.
The main goals of the season are simple for Lane. He
just wants his girls to get better with every practice and
with each game that they play.
Lane wants his team to
have a much bigger impact
than just simple wins and losses.
I hope the community
embraces this team and comes
out to watch them when we
are at home and on the road.
We want to give the school and
community something special
to cheer for and we are going to
work as hard as we can to make
them proud, Lane added.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Head Coach Jason Brown,
4th year at ACHS and 12th year overall
as a head coach, will be joined by Jeremy
McAdam to bring a wealth of knowledge
to the AC wrestlers. Brown was an assistant coach at Manhattan High School
under Kansas Wrestling Hall of Fame
Coach, Lee Woodford.
This may be McAdams first year at
ACHS, but he is a former Bulldog wrestler that placed in state and wrestled
under a soon to be Hall of Fame Coach,
Dennis Charbonneau.
They have a simple philosophy for the
season, but it is results are all that matter.
When Brown was asked his goals
for the season he stated, Win as many
matches as possible. Take as many wrestlers and bring home as many medals as
possible from State.
To do this the team will focus on,
conditioning, technique, mental conditioning and more conditioning, Brown
added. We do not talk or think about
weaknesses.

The Bulldogs played much
better in the second half, outscoring Girard 21-17 for the half,
but it wasnt nearly enough.
Friday night the results were
much better for the girls team
as they, once again, hit the road
and traveled to Osawatomie.
The Bulldogs rolled to an easy

It will be a very tough year as the

it that much more difficult in the league

Communicating skills: What to take, what to change?
Ive recently completed a
series of sessions on healthy
relationships with teens in
the Frontier District. A couple
of the lessons that I think are
really important are on communication challenges and
conflict management skills.
The teens have a workbook
that helps them apply the concepts we talk about to their
own lives. One workbook activity I find particularly helpful
is, Communication Patterns:
What to Take, What to Change.
The teens reflect upon the communication patterns in their
families of origin and identify
the patterns they want to work
toward for their own lives.
You see, without this kind of
conscious examination, we
all have a tendency to repeat
the same patterns we grew up
with. Or, we tend to react in
totally opposite ways, which
can be just as problematic.
However, we can develop skills
to communicate effectively and
to manage conflict in healthy
ways.
Negative communication
patterns and interaction are
what starts to erode relationships. Danger signs include:
put-downs or invalidation;
withdrawal or avoidance, negative interpretation and escalation.
Put-downs or Invalidations
happen when feelings, actions,
efforts, or thoughts are discounted, disrespected, or devalued. Some examples include:
You cant do anything right.
You stupid jerk. Its no big
You name it,

EXTENSION NEWS
REBECCA MCFARLAND, Frontier Extension District
deal you shouldnt be so upset
about that.
Withdrawal or avoidance
is when someone like a partner, friend, family member, or
someone you work with avoids
talking about important things
or withdraws from the conver-
sation once important issues
come up. Its very frustrating
and withdrawing or avoiding
certain topics or conversations
usually means the mounting
frustration leads to an angry
outburst. However, withdrawal is wise and advised when
the conversation starts getting
heated or escalating. Escalation
is when a routine conversation erupts into destructive
or out-of-control arguments.
Negative comments spew out
with hurtful and nasty words.
People often regret the words
they have said in anger, but
unfortunately, the other person is likely to remember them.
People who are more successful
in their relationships are often
able to stop themselves before
it goes too far. They learn how
to stop and take a time out.
Negative interpretation is
when someone takes what you
say and turns it around. Have
you ever felt like another person was taking what you said
and turned it in to something
negative? Have you ever had
the sense that a person is only
seeing and looking for the negatives and does not see any of
the positives that you do? The

performance ag
danger with negative interpretations is that they can take
over your view of another person. Soon, you dont even see
half of the positive things the
other person does or says.
Everyone engages in the

communication danger signs
from time to time, but too much
can destroy relationships. The
good news is that you can learn
skills to reduce these negative
patterns and to stop or exit out
of them when they occur.
