Colony woman dies in
wreck; no major

BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – A Colony woman
was killed when her vehicle
drove into the path of a semi
north of Colony Wednesday,
Dec. 18.
Woman
found
safe in
Flint Hills
Vivian M. Barnett, 82, of
Colony, was killed at about
3:20 p.m. Wednesday when
her vehicle drove left of center into the path of a semi
driven by Michael H. Kirksey,
55, of Spring, Texas, on U.S.
169 about two miles north of
Colony. Kirksey reported possible injury but was out of the
vehicle, walking around, when
emergency responders arrived.
An unrelated accident the
following morning sent another woman to the hospital with
minor injuries. Mary Allen of
Anderson County was attempting to turn left from 1550 Road
onto Oregon Road at 8:31 a.m.
Thursday, Dec. 19, when she
collided just north of the Tintersection with a Ford F-150
truck driven by Dave Wilson of
Missouri. Wilson, who said he
was deer hunting, was pulling a
utility trailer hauling an ATV.
Allen was taken to Anderson
County Hospital and released
the same day. Wilson left the
accident scene with friends.
Despite a wintry storm that
dumped ice and snow over
the county Friday night into
Saturday, only a couple of noninjury accidents were reported
over the weekend.

A Christmas Story
Bible verses recount
the story of the
birth of Jesus
Luke 1
1:26 And in the sixth
month the angel Gabriel
was sent from God unto
a city of Galilee, named
Nazareth,
1:27 To a virgin espoused
to a man whose name was
Joseph, of the house of
David; and the virgins
name was Mary.
1:28 And the angel came
in unto her, and said,
Hail, thou that art highly
favoured, the Lord is with
thee: blessed art thou
among women.
1:29 And when she saw
him, she was troubled at
his saying, and cast in
her mind what manner of
salutation this should be.
1:30 And the angel said
unto her, Fear not, Mary:
for thou hast found favour
with God.
1:31 And, behold, thou
shalt conceive in thy
womb, and bring forth
a son, and shalt call his
name JESUS.
1:32 He shall be great, and
shall be called the Son of
the Highest: and the Lord
God shall give unto him
the throne of his father
David:
1:33 And he shall reign
over the house of Jacob for
ever; and of his kingdom
there shall be no end.
1:34 Then said Mary unto
the angel, How shall this
be, seeing I know not a
man?
1:35 And the angel
answered and said unto
her, The Holy Ghost shall
come upon thee, and the
power of the Highest shall
overshadow thee: therefore
also that holy thing which
shall be born of thee shall
be called the Son of God.
1:36 And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also
conceived a son in her old
age: and this is the sixth
month with her, who was
called barren.
1:37 For with God nothing
shall be impossible.

for sometime next month.
County officials have been
organizing a delinquent property tax sale after years of delays,
hoping to recoup some of the
$310,000 or so owed in past
due taxes. The last delinquent
property tax sale was May
2004, although the county had a
delinquent mineral rights sale
in May 2010. County counselor
James Campbell told commis-
sioners it takes at least three
years of preparation for such a
sale, and if they wanted to have
another one any time soon, they
should start preparing now.
Campbell said he would need to
review his schedule before he
could finalize an actual date for
the sale, but estimated it should
be done sometime in January.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, December 24, 2013
RECORD
ANDERSON COUNTY BOARD OF
COMMISSIONER DECEMBER 9
Chairman Eugene Highberger called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Commission to order at 9:00 a.m. on
December 9 at the County Commission
Room. Attendance: Eugene Highberger,
Present: James K. Johnson, Present:
Jerry Howarter, Present. The pledge of
allegiance was recited. Minutes of the
previous meeting were read. Correction
made that the bridge the state is replacing is west and north of Harris on Hwy
31.
Road and Bridge
Lester Welsh, Road Supervisor, met
with the commission. Lester reported the
state is going to close the bridge west
and north of Harris on Hwy 31 probably
Wednesday of this week. Lester questioned if the commission had considered
his request for allowing his employees to
get overtime if they are called out to take
care of roads when it snows or other
emergencies, and then take sick or vacation in the same week. Commissioner
Johnson moved to allow overtime for the
road department in times of emergency
when they also have taken sick or vacation in the same week. Commissioner
Howarter seconded. Approved 3-0.
Utility Costs
John Barney, P1Group, met with the
commission. He had previously given a
presentation to the commission about
what his company could do for the county in regards to utility costs. He would
like to see how his company could help
reduce the cost of utilities for the county.
He would like to do an energy audit and
see what can be done to increase the
energy efficiency in the county buildings.
The commission would like to see references that the company has worked with
other historical buildings.
County Counselor
James Campbell, County Counselor,
met with the commission. He informed
the commission there is a hearing set
up for next Monday for the property on
the tax sale that the owner is protesting
being on the sale.
Landfill
Scott Garrett, Landfill Supervisor, met
with the commission. He talked to the
commission about the free single family
house dumping. He would like to have
some regulations added that there are
no contents in the house that should
be put on the floor and is instead going
to the construction/demolition site. He
questioned if the house that burnt in town
would also qualify if there was insurance
on it. The Garnett City would like to tear
the house down and would like to dump
it free. Commission stated the city will
have to wait for the application to be
completed before the free dumping will
be allowed. Garnett City would also like
free dumping of the debris from the sidewalks they are replacing. Commission
denied free dumping of sidewalk debris.
Emergency Management
JD
Mersman,
Emergency
Management Director, met with the com-
mission. He reported on fires recently in the county. Two businesses in
Colony were totaled or damaged last
week along with one home that was
destroyed east of Garnett. Welda Fire
Department has secured a $2,500 grant
from Lyon Coffey Electric. They would
like to eventually build a new firehouse
for the equipment. The furnace went out
at the Garnett station. It looks like it will
be cheaper to replace the current one
than repair it. Commission would like
him to check and see what bids he can
get. They would like to purchase a coffer
dam that would allow for a firefighter to
go in a grain bin and protect them as
they extricate a victim trapped in grain.
The ethanol plant has stated they would
reimburse the county for the cost of
the equipment. Commissioner Howarter
moved to purchase a coffer bin from KC
Supply at a cost of $3,030.00 out of the
Rural Fire Fund. Commissioner Johnson
seconded. Approved 3-0. JD presented a
red light permit for Jerimiah Thompson.
Commission approved permit. JD would
like to purchase 12 pairs of gloves at
$85.00 a piece and 10 helmets at a total
cost of $2,500. Commissioner Johnson
moved to approve purchase of gloves
and hats at a total cost of $3,700.00
from Jerry Ingram Fire, out of the Rural
Fire Fund. Commissioner Howarter seconded. Approved 3-0.
Meeting adjourned at 12:05 p.m. due
to no further business.

Iola, then Ottawa, where she attended grade school and high school.
Following school Vivian worked at
Cuzaks in Ottawa, where she met
her future husband.
Vivian was united in marriage
to Robert L. Barnett, Sr., on May
13, 1949, in Osceola, Missouri. This
union was blessed with four children, Linda Ann, Debra Kay, Robert
Jr., and Laurie Lee.
After their marriage, they lived
in Colony. Vivian loved being a
farmers wife. She also worked at
Kellys Caf in Colony before going
to work as a teachers aide in 1971.
She worked at USD 479 as an aide
and then as secretary for Crest
High School and Crest Elementary
Schools until retiring in 1993. In
her younger years, Vivian loved
to roller skate and play softball.
Summertime meant she could also
enjoy sunbathing, (she even used
baby oil as tanning lotion). She
coached t-ball in Colony including her grandsons team. She also
enjoyed her flowers, working in the
yard and sweeping her porch.
Vivian was a member of the
Colony Methodist Church for
a number of years, joining the
church in 1958. She was a Sunday
school teacher and Superintendent
of Sunday school, and she held
many offices in the church. Vivian
was currently the United Methodist
Women President, which she has
held for a number of years. Vivian
enjoyed the after church coffee
with friends at Colony Foods. She
was also a charter member of the
Jolly Dozen Club. Over the last 30
years Vivian and Bob have enjoyed
many card parties and travelling
to Branson with the group known
as the Dirty Half Dozen. Bob was
a charter member of the Colony
Lions Club in 1954 and all the while
Vivian has served food for their
meetings until earlier this year.
Vivian organized many funeral
dinners, and she always sent a card
to anyone with a need or suffered a
loss. Her devotion to her family can
be seen through one of her final
acts, on the day of her passing she
had just decorated graves of her
family in Ottawa. Vivians greatest
joy and love was her family.
She was preceded in death by
her parents; her husband, Robert
L. Barnett, Sr., on May 23, 2010; four
brothers, Ray, Dale, Don and Gene;
three sisters, infant Joyce, Dorothy
Snell, and Freda Hughes.

Government leaders across
the state have been considering how to adapt to the new
state law, with many choosing
to delay the matter until the last
minute. That last-minute decision will come Jan. 1, and county commissioners decided it
wasnt worth the extra expense
to secure the buildings. They
will take down No Gun signs

are legally certified to carry a
concealed weapon to bring that
weapon into the courthouse and
other county-owned buildings.
Opponents of the law change

someone who comes to the

up in rural Westphalia, KS attending one-room country schools and
graduating from Westphalia High
School in 1954.
He served his country in the
Army June 1954 through June
1956, spending most of that time in
Germany.
Upon returning home, he took
over his parents dairy farm. On
December 22, 1957, he married
Betty Johnson Johnston at Waverly,
KS. To this union five children were
born. Milton and Betty worked
together raising their children, taking them to church, teaching them
right from wrong, and the value of
an apology, and to be a big enough
person to apologize when needed.
The entire family worked together
building their farm into a large
dairy operation. In the Spring of
1985, the farming came to an end.
Soon after, he went to work
in Parkville, MO for his brother
Raymond at Gladstone Sewer and
Plumbing. He learned the plumbing trade and earned his journeyman license, working there for over
20 years.
For the last 5 years until October,
2013, he worked as a janitor at

Even if the property is sold
for less than the amount of
taxes owed, the county will
recoup some of the money and
the transfer of ownership is
expected to at least bring the
properties back onto countys
active tax rolls.
County Treasurer Dena
McDaniel previously said property owners benefited from an
extra three or four years to get
caught up; county officials have
been trying to organize a delinquent tax sale for the past few
years but the process has faced
numerous delays.
During the 2004 tax sale, 18
properties were sold for a total
of $17,234. At the time, officials
said the county collected more
money than was owed as back
taxes, but the amount was still
less than the total taxes, fees
and other interest owed on the
properties. Several properties
sold for as little as $16, which
barely covered the cost to transfer the title. The highest price
was $6,500 for several lots in
Kincaid.

If a property owner waits long
enough and doesnt pay his/
her taxes, the county has the
authority to seize the property
and sell it for whatever the market will bring in order to pay
taxes accrued against it.
The most recent delay in
the upcoming sale came from a
property owner who contested
having his property on the list,
and took the matter to court
last week. The property owner
claimed the house was damaged
by fire and he should be given
leeway because of the unusual
circumstances, but the judge
ruled against the owner. The
tax sale was delayed while the
matter was under the courts
consideration, Campbell told
commissioners, but now that it
is resolved the sale can proceed.
The county published its official list of delinquent properties in August, giving owners
notice they had until Oct. 17
to pay up or have the property
put on the auction block. At the
time, 56 properties were eligible.
Campbell was not immediately
available to provide a current
estimate of how many properties will be offered for sale.

Garnett city leaders, however, have expressed concern
about allowing weapons in public buildings. Its likely they

to study the issue, including
studying the safety of the buildings and the potential impact
of allowing concealed weapons.
Commissioners were expected

EDITORIAL
Merry Christmas Duck Dynasty
from the Dixie Chicks
My first reaction was to bring my antihypocrisy guns to bear on the A&E Network
and other liberal crybabies over the firing of
Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson last
week amid reaction to comments he made
in a GQ article viewed as anti-gay and antiblack. Why? Because pointing out Hollywood
hypocrisy is a Christmas gift I give myself all
year round.
Then, just when the hair was about to
stand up on the back of my neck (it really
does that- not as bad as the Duck Dynasty
guys beards but its still kind of freaky-looking), I was visited by the Ghost of Hub-bubs
Past.
He (it was, in fact, a he… not an it, not
a spirit in the midst of gender reassignment or some genderless incarnation of
spectral phenomena) whispered…The Dixie
Chicks.
The Hicks household is, I believe, one of
a half-dozen or so non-homeless families in
America without cable or satellite TV, so I
have to say Ive never seen a full episode of
Duck Dynasty. I know them only through the
collateral marketing of the hit show and a
few minutes viewing on friends televisions.
I did, however, know the Dixie Chicks.
I loved them. I loved the way their vocal
harmonies blended with a fiddle. I loved
their song selections. I hadnt bought any of
their music yet but had intended to. Then in
2003 they dissed President Bush and their
country and the soldiers putting their lives
on the line for their core beliefs in the War on
Terror, and I was done with them.
I admit it. Im an extremist on a lot of
issues. If youre going to have convictions
they should be convictions, not subject to
smoothing or melba-toasting. Without convictions, Paul Revere would have stayed in
bed.
Most of Nashville and their fan base
was done with the Chicks too. Concert dates
started not selling, personal appearances and
tour dates were cancelled, country radio stations held Dixie Chicks CD burning parties.
The public hasnt heard much if anything
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
from them since; for all we know they may
be waiting tables at a Dennys somewhere
outside of Fort Worth.
Because conventional media and those
who practice it have an innate derision for
conservatives, the television and entertainment industry couldnt defend the Dixie
Chicks enough. Lead singer Natalie Mains,
who herself made the comments on a London
stage, at first attempted a teary-eyed apology
until it was clear the fans werent buying
it, then decided shed stand her ground and
throw it back in her critics faces. The entertainment industry heaped awards on the band
but country fans in the U.S. moved on and left
Mains and the Chicks to bathe in their own
self-righteousness. Dixie Chicking became
conservative slang for financial boycotts of
entertainers who attack conservative beliefs.
And why shouldnt they liberals are never
shy to boycott when their feelings are hurt.
But they have Freedom of Speech, their
supporters moaned at the time. That one was
easy for me to argue since I was one of the
offended: No arm of the U.S. government had
assailed the poor Chicks; they hadnt been
arrested or detained or their rights violated
by the government. Their fans, however, also
had freedom of speech, and of their opinions,
and of their wallets. And they exercised
them all.

The actions, or should I say inactions
of the Anderson County Attorney just
serve to illegitimize law enforcement in
our county. Why should any of us follow the law when the county attorney
refuses to follow it? Perhaps the problem with purchasing yourself a $10,000
desk with money from the public till is
that its too easy to just sit at it and not
do your job?
With the way the news media is always
putting down Christianity and trying to
take Christ out of Christmas, it would
really be nice if next year everybody in
Garnett would set out a Nativity Scene,
to show them that we down here still
believe in what Christmas is really supposed to be. Merry Christmas.
A manufactured ADHD epidemic
If at any time while reading this article your attention wanders, you may have
ADHD. If you pause to check your email
sometime during the next three paragraphs, you should consult a doctor. If you
fail to read this article all the way to the
end, you should get on Adderall, Ritalin or
some other drug to treat your condition as
soon as possible.
This isnt quite the standard for diagnosing attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder,
but its close. The New York Times ran
a long expose on how the drug industry
has stoked the diagnosis and treatment of
ADHD that had a revelatory quote from
Keith Conners, a doctor who has long advocated for the recognition of the disorder.
Conners called the overdiagnosis of
ADHD a national disaster of dangerous
proportions, telling the Times that the
rising number of cases is a concoction
to justify the giving out of medication at
unprecedented and unjustifiable levels.
This isnt bomb-throwing from an outsider,
but a critique from the namesake of the
Conners ratings scale widely used to evaluate kids for ADHD.
There is no doubt that ADHD is a legitimate neurological condition that makes
kids (and those around them) miserable,
that blights their potential and that can
be alleviated by prescription stimulants
like Adderall and Ritalin. There also is
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
no doubt that diagnosis and treatment of
the disorder has run wildly out of control. According to the forthcoming book
The ADHD Explosion, 19 percent of highschool-aged males have received a diagnosis. The numbers differ from state to
state. In North Carolina, an astounding 30
percent of boys over age 9 are supposedly
suffering from ADHD. Overall, 6 percent
of children and adolescents in the United
States are on drugs to treat ADHD.
Its a wonder more kids arent diagnosed with it, given the overlap between
the description of the disorder and failings to which we are all prone. The New
York Times points out that the American
Psychiatric Association criteria for ADHD
include often has difficulty waiting his or
her turn and makes careless mistakes,
hardly rare childhood behaviors.
The drug companies — for whom ADHD
is a $9 billion-a-year business — target
mothers with alluring ads suggesting their
children will become little angels through
the wonders of risk-free stimulants. Their
kids will get better grades, spend more
quality time with the family and remember
to take out the trash. Who wouldnt want
their child thus magically transformed?
According to the Times report, the Food
and Drug Administration has constantly
rebuked the companies for going beyond
the evidence in selling visions of childhood
Valhalla secured through the right drug.
Undertrained primary-care physicians
and worried parents default much too
often to the diagnosis of ADHD and to the
answer of a prescription. The next frontier
is adult ADHD, with the promise of a vast
new pharmaceutical market made up of
people deprived of ADHD diagnoses when
they were children. Some of these diagnoses will be warranted and life-changing,
but others will be overreach prompted by
vague and dubious symptoms, like inattentive op-ed reading.
Sure, you got to the end of this article.
But how about the next one?

Review.
Proposed U-turn on ethanol would devastate rural economy
The Obama Administrations recent proposal to reverse course on the Renewable
Fuel Standard (RFS) and lower ethanol
blending requirements threatens to place
the key to our energy future firmly back
in the hands of Big Oil. By embracing
the petroleum industrys fictitious blend
wall narrative, the proposal effectively
allows oil companies to blend only as much
renewable fuel as they are comfortable
usingand not a drop more. If finalized,
the proposal would set a dangerous precedent and fundamentally alter the future
course of what has been the most successful energy policy in recent memory.
Rather than compelling oil companies to expand biofuel usage and invest
in modern refueling infrastructure, the
proposal would essentially codify the 10%
ethanol blend wall and entrench it as the
key determinant in setting future annual
blending obligations. Such an approach is
entirely inconsistent with what Congress
intended when it expanded the standard in
2007.
Lower ethanol blending means higher gasoline demand…and higher gasoline demand means increased prices at
the pump. According to economists at
LOCAL COMMENTARY
JEFF OESTMANN, EKAE
Louisiana State University, gas prices could
rise by $0.06/gallon if the proposal is finalized, resulting in a $7.6 billion hit to the U.S.
economy. In addition to reaping the benefit
of higher gas prices, oil companies would
profit from avoided investments in refueling infrastructure and forgone purchases
of biofuels. It all adds up to a $10 billion
windfall for some of the richest and largest
corporations on the planet.
In the wake of a record corn crop, grain
supplies are swelling and corn prices have
fallen to three-year lows. For the first time
in seven years, corn prices in some locations have fallen below the cost of produc-
tion. Obamas proposal would take away an
important demand stimulus at a time when
farmers need it most. The end result would
be lower farm income and destabilization
of the agriculture sector.
The proposal also sends a strong signal to
the investment community that the Obama
Administrations commitment to biofuels
ofall typesincluding advanced and cellulosic biofuelsis wavering. Further, under
the proposal, low-carbon biofuels would be
supplanted with gasoline and diesel refined
from tar sands, tight oil from fracking, oil
from deepwater drilling, or imported oil.
The obvious result would be an increase in
emissions from the transportation sector.
Fortunately, its not too late for the
Administration to get back on track and
avert a massive train wreck. The solution
is simple: let the RFS work as intended. The refueling infrastructure, vehicles
and surplus compliance credits needed to
meet statutory RFS requirements in 2014
are already in place. The Administration
should take the wheel back from Big Oil
and correct course before its too late.

Hi, I wanted to say congratulations to Bill
Barnes and Dave Lybarger for winning
the Kansas Hospital Association Trustee
of the Year Award for their work on the
new hospital bond issue. It certainly is
nice that those who supported the hospital did it so openly and werent afraid
to tie their names to it. Thank you again
and congratulations Bill and Dave.
Mr. Hicks must not understand how
things work in Anderson County. Think
youre supposed to follow all the election laws or file the right forms to campaign against a hospital bond issue? Not
if youre one of the chosen families of
Garnett. You get the break, county attorney or cops look the other way or they
believe you when you tell them you just
made a mistake and you didnt know
any better. Funny. Try that the next time
you get pulled over for speeding and see
where it gets you. I would like to hear
our county attorney explain why after he
caught this person why this person didnt
have to go on and fill out the donation
forms? Dont worry (name deleted) the
county attorneys got your back. Thank
you.
We had some company from out of town,
thought wed show them the city lights
uptown and again theyre not turned on.
Here it is 7:30 at night and none of the
lights are on on any of the buildings. I
tell you, Garnett, youre just a pretty upto-date town, arent you?

This old bird brings questions
Have you ever heard yourself saying, Why that old

its priceless.
We do know, however, that

ornament was hung on her

at the age of seven. Later in
life it was given to Kay by her
grandmother. It can be found
hanging snuggled among
our Christmas tree branches
every year since. A few other
things we know about this
ornament are: It is made of a
very thin glass (Is it blown or
spun glass? We are not sure.)
It is hand painted and has
bristles for its tail feathers.

Though I dont like
it, the same is true for
Phil Robertson. Hearst
Corporation and Disney, the
owners of the A&E Network
that broadcasts the show,
are private companies and
they can make whatever
decisions they choose based
on whatever reasoning they
choose. If they want to fire
Phil Robertson for espousing his beliefs, sobeit. A&E
management has obviously
weighed its desire for political correctness against the
values Robertson espoused
and the fans who will agree
with and support him. That
is their decision to make.
Robertsons rights havent
been taken away from him
by the government; his free
speech is as intact today as
it was before the comments
were made. But like the Dixie
Chicks now know, freedom
of speech, particularily for
celebrities, comes at a price.
By now we should know
this: We are a nation whose
freedoms and protections
have cured like concrete
among our varied ideologies.
Gay and black issues are
sacrosanct among urbanites
and liberals who control the
mainstream media; conservative issues are preeminently embraced among a great
swath of the rural population
and particularly dominant in
the countrys geography. We
choose sides based on our
values, and few minds will
be changed by the arguments
from the other side. Dont
hold your breath waiting for
everyone to join hands and
sing Kumbaya.
What can we agree on?
That the arguments will go
on and that in this country
the law in the end protects us
from government, not from
ourselves.

summer to certified seed growers, will be available to farmers next season, if conditions
for a good crop prevail. Grant
Overley told the Review that he
has about 150 acres planted to
Overley in Anderson, Allen and
Woodson counties, and he hopes
to have seed to sell next summer. The new variety is named
after Carl Overley, who served
Kansas Agriculture for decades
as Kansas State Universitys
foundation seed manager. He
died in 2002.
All it took was one dairy cow
as far away as Washington state
turning up with Mad Cow disease a week ago to throw the
U.S. cattle market into a tizzy,
and douse the hopes of continued record-high cattle prices for
cattlemen in Anderson County.

A weekend burglary at
Rockers Liquor Store resulted
in the theft of a large amount
of liquor. The Garnett Police
Department is still investigating the crime. The break-in
occurred either late Saturday
night or early Sunday morning. Several half-gallon bottles
of liquor were taken from the
business. The burglars tried
to break in through the back
door, but were unable to so they
broke out the south window
and entered the store through
the window.
William Howe, a noted artist
from Ottawa, had donated one
of his butterfly paintings to

two species of South American

A power problem Thursday
morning caused some Garnett
residents to be without electricity for about an hour, and use of
electricity is up, accompanying
the increased gas usage because
of the extremely cold weather.
Bone-chilling subzero temperatures continued over the
region the latter part of the
week, and weather forecasters
are predicting a continued cold
wave until at least Tuesday,
when temperatures may warm
to the teens and 20s. Record setting temperatures were recorded at the Garnett Municipal
by Vickie Moss
Staff Writer
Airport last week, with a low
of 15 below zero Thursday, and
a prediction from the National
Weather Service for temperatures 15 to 20 below zero
Friday.

Mr. And Mrs. Jake Hurst
and Miss Goldie Sutherland
went out to Ed Sutherlands
to spend Christmas, and when
they returned home, they
found a man waiting for them
who asked if they kept boarders. Jake said they did, and the
stranger asked if he could put
up there awhile, and Jake said
he could . Soon the matter was
settled. The two men talked a
while (the stranger hadnt told
his name and presently Jake
said to his guest: You talk like
a Hurst. The Hursts back in
Indiana. The man smiled, and
said, Yes, thats my name. My
folks lived in Indiana. Fiftyone years ago, Jake Hurst came
west to grow up with the country. His brother Robert was a
little chap then. After corresponding a while, the members
of the family lost track of each
other. Years later, Robert came
West too and had been living at
Wichita. He met a workman who
knew a man named Jake Hurst
in Garnett. Why, said Robert,
that must be my brother. He
finally came to Garnett to see
if Jake really was his long-lost
brother. And he found it true,
after a separation of over half
this century.

Viking boys fall short at home Bulldog girls struggle
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Central Heights loses a close
battle at home to Burlington 4845.
The Central Heights Vikings
led early, holding a slight 15-12
advantage after the first quarter. The Burlington Wildcats
had the Vikings fighting from
behind the majority of the
remainder of the game though.
The Wildcats asserted themselves in the second quarter as
they outscored the Vikings 12-5
and took a 24-20 lead into half-
time. The Burlington defense
took the Viking boys out of
their game in the quarter.
Burlington confused our
kids by switching defenses. They
switched from zone, to triangleand-two and back to man-toman defense. They caused us to
stand around and look instead
of moving the ball from side to
side. Its easy to guard when the
offense is stands, head coach
Rusty Cannady stated about his
teams struggles.
In the third quarter despite
getting back on track a little
offensively, Cannadys team
fell behind slightly more as
Burlington outscored the
Vikings 15-13. His team didnt
go away easily though as they
fought back in the fourth quarter. Central Heights outscored
the Wildcats 12-9 in the fourth,
coming up just short.
Despite the setback, Cannady
said his team is getting better
in certain aspects of the game,
but offensively he expects their
to be scoring droughts because
of the lack of consistent shooting.
against Tonganoxie
Defensively we played
pretty well for the most part.
Its tough to tell your kids that
they did good things after a loss
because they are frustrated.
But I believe we moved a step
closer to being better communicators on defense, Cannady
said. Offensively we are going
to struggle. Sometimes the ball
just wont go into the hole.
The Vikings were led by
Jordan Horstick with 13 points,
Tanny Erhart had 9 points and
Tyler Hendron with 8 points.
BY KEVIN GAINES
The Bulldog girls start slow
and never recover in a 46-24 loss
on the road to the Tonganoxie
Chieftains.
It took the AC girls over 4
minutes before finally scoring
their first points. It was just a
sign of things to come as the
offense struggled throughout
the night. The Chieftains led
13-4 after the first quarter and
27-10 at halftime.
The Bulldogs played better
Crest boys play well in win over Pleasanton
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
The Crest squad has now
won two straight games after
a convincing 76-59 win over
Pleasanton.
The Lancers used a quick
start to propel them to the vic-
tory. In the first quarter they
raced out to a 21-12 advantage.
They increased that lead to 14
at halftime as they led 39-25.
The third quarter saw
Pleasanton cut into the lead
slightly. After outscoring the
Lancers 17-15, they still faced
an uphill battle trailing 54-42
Viking girls overwhelmed
in loss to #2 Burlington
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
The Burlington Wildcat
girls entered the game against
Central Heights ranked #2 in
4A Division 2 and played the
part as they routed the Vikings
61-24.
Central Heights fought
hard early, but the Wildcats
wore down the Vikings with
their speed and depth. After
a competitive first quarter the
girls were down 16-7, but the
Wildcats seized control in the
second as they outscored the
Vikings 23-8 to take a 39-15 lead
into halftime.
The pace slowed in the second half but Burlington continued to build their lead as
they outpaced the Vikings 12-4
and 10-5 in the third and fourth
quarters respectively.
Leading the way for the
Vikings was Regan Markley
with 8 points and Sydney Meyer
with 6 points.
heading into the final quarter. The Lancers once again
played well offensively in the
final period as they poured in
22 points to put the finishing
touches on the victory.
Brock Ellis led all scorers
with 27 points and also pulled
down 14 rebounds. Hunter

Anderson County boys unravel
in 56-28 setback to Tonganoxie
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
In what was the final game
of 2013, the Bulldogs will be
hoping a new year will bring
a fresh start after struggling
early on this season.
After a competitive first
quarter that ended with the
score tied at 6, the Tonganoxie
Chieftains dominated the second quarter. Not only did they
outscore the Bulldogs 24-3 for
the period, they actually ran
off the first 20 points of the
quarter.
The second half was equally
frustrating for the road team as
the Bulldogs couldnt overcome
that second quarter collapse.
The Chieftains didnt give the
Bulldogs any chance at a serious comeback by pushing their
lead further the final two quarters. They outscored the AC
boys 15-12 in the third quarter
and 11-7 in the fourth.
Leading the way was
Spencer Walter with 10 points.
Ian Comfort had 6 points and
Tyler Woodard scored 5 points.
The boys will have three
weeks off as they wont play
again until they travel to Spring
Hill on January 10th.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 12-24-2013 / Photo Submitted
The Anderson County High School Band under the direction of Jeff Russell and the

Gift of the Magi theme
of Richmond UM Women
The
Richmond
United
Methodist Womens December
meeting was filled with the
Christmas spirit of love and giving.
President Lorene Stockard
prepared a worship center
that honored three members
who have passed away this
year : Betty Prue, Laura Cox
and Dorothy Dunbar. She read
words of remembrance and love
about each of the three as she
placed a rose next to the members photo.
Mrs. Stockard also installed
the 2014 officers, giving each a
rose as she read their names
and responsibilities: President,
Pat Vining; Vice-president,
Peg Beach; Secretary, Sherryl
Reiter; Treasurer, Mary Hall;
Mission Coordinators Janice
McIntosh, Cathy Parsons,
Sarah Peters, Sherryl Reiter
and herself. Rosalie Schafer is
the prayer chain and Sunshine
Card chairman.
The unit prepared and
served eight bereavement dinners in 2013, more than are usually neeeded at the Richmond
church in several years.
The Gift of the Magi, a
short story by O. Henry, was
introduced by Pat Vining
and the story read by guests
Suann Feldkamp and Donna
Fernandez. The group then
discussed ways they could give
gifts of compassion, love, tolerance, respect, music, thoughtfulness, and similar qualities
which cost nothing but are often

needed and usually appreciated
very much.
The Love Offering, which
will be given to a local family that is going through a difficult time, was taken as members sang Love Came Down
at Christmas. The church
has adopted this family for
Christmas and gifts in addition
to the Love Offering will be
given to them on December 22.
The program closed by singing Silent Night and a special benediction read by Mrs.
Stockard.
Minutes of the previous meeting were read by Sherryl Reiter
and the treasurers report, prepared by Mary Hall, was read
by the president since Mrs. Hall
was absent. Both reports were
approved.
A carry-in evening meal
was enjoyed before the meeting.
Tables were decorated with various kinds of manger scenes or
creches to carry-out the theme
of gifts from the wise men that
continued in the story The Gift
of the Magi.

The best gift ever
In Isaiah 9:6-7 the word of
the LORD came to the prophet
and Isaiah prophesied concerning the birth of Jesus Christ as
follows. For to us a child is
born, to us a son is given, and
the government will be on his
shoulders. And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty
God, Everlasting Father, Prince
of Peace. Of the increase of
his government and peace there
will be no end. He will reign
on Davids throne and over
his kingdom, establishing and
upholding it with justice and
righteousness from that time on
forever. The zeal of the LORD
Almighty will accomplish this.
This prophecy is made centuries before the birth of Christ
and is so clear in Isaiahs mind
that he speaks concerning it
in the past tense, like it has
already occurred. At approximately the same time the word
of the LORD came to a minor
prophet by the name of Micah
who pronounced this oracle
over Bethlehem. But you
Bethlehem Ephrathah, though
you are small among the clans
of Judah, out of you will come
for me one who will be ruler
over Israel, whose origins are
from old, from ancient times.
(Micah 5:2)
We now have the announcement of the birth of Christ
as well as his birth place centuries before it occurred. In
Luke 2 we read of the birth of
Jesus. Required by a decree
from Caesar Augustus to register for a worldwide census people returned to their ancestral
homes for registration which
made it easier to list families for
the purpose of taxation. Israel
was under Roman rule at the
time and the burden of taxation was heavy. So Joseph and
Mary traveled from Nazareth to

JESUS…
FROM PAGE 1A
Lord came upon them,
and the glory of the Lord
shone round about them: and
they were sore 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 womb.
2:22 And when the days of
her purification according to
the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to
Jerusalem, to present him to
the Lord;
2:23 (As it is written in the law
of the LORD, Every male that
openeth the womb shall be
called holy to the Lord;)
2:24 And to offer a sacrifice
according to that which is said
in the law of the Lord, A pair
of turtledoves, or two young
pigeons.
2:25 And, behold, there was
a man in Jerusalem, whose
name was Simeon; and the
same man was just and devout,
waiting for the consolation of
Israel: and the Holy Ghost was
upon him.
2:26 And it was revealed unto
him by the Holy Ghost, that he
should not see death, before he
had seen the Lords Christ.
2:27 And he came by the Spirit
into the temple: and when the
parents brought in the child
Jesus, to do for him after the
custom of the law,
2:28 Then took he him up in
his arms, and blessed God, and
said,
2:29 Lord, now lettest thou
thy servant depart in peace,
according to thy word:
2:30 For mine eyes have seen
thy salvation,
2:31 Which thou hast prepared
before the face of all people;
2:32 A light to lighten the
Gentiles, and the glory of thy
people Israel.
2:33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things
which were spoken of him.
2:34 And Simeon blessed them,
and said unto Mary his mother,
Behold, this child is set for the
fall and rising again of many
in Israel; and for a sign which
shall be spoken against;
2:35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce
through thy own soul also,)
that the thoughts of many
hearts may be revealed.
2:36 And there was one Anna,
a prophetess, the daughter of
Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser:
she was of a great age, and had
lived with an husband seven
years from her virginity;
2:37 And she was a widow of
about fourscore and four years,
which departed not from the
temple, but served God with
fastings and prayers night and
day.
2:38 And she coming in that
instant gave thanks likewise
unto the Lord, and spake of
him to all them that looked for
redemption in Jerusalem.
2:39 And when they had performed all things according
to the law of the Lord, they
returned into Galilee, to their
own city Nazareth.
Matthew 2
2:1 Now when Jesus was born
in Bethlehem of Judaea in the
days of Herod the king, behold,
there came wise men from the
east to Jerusalem,
2:2 Saying, Where is he that is
born King of the Jews? for we
have seen his star in the east,
and are come to worship him.
2:3 When Herod the king had
heard these things, he was
troubled, and all Jerusalem
with him.
2:4 And when he had gathered all the chief priests and
scribes of the people together,
he demanded of them where
Christ should be born.
2:5 And they said unto him, In
Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus
it is written by the prophet,
2:6 And thou Bethlehem, in the
land of Juda, art not the least
among the princes of Juda:
for out of thee shall come a
Governor, that shall rule my
people Israel.
2:7 Then Herod, when he had
privily called the wise men,
enquired 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 again, that
I may come and worship him
also.
2:9 When they had heard the
king, they departed; and, lo,
the star, which they saw in the
east, went before them, till it
came and stood over where the
young child was.
2:10 When they saw the star,
they rejoiced with exceeding
great joy.
2:11 And when they were come
into the house, they saw the
young child with Mary his
mother, and fell down, and
worshipped him: and when
they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him
gifts;
gold, and frankincense and
myrrh.
2:12 And being warned of God
in a dream that they should
not return to Herod, they
departed into their own country another way.
2:13 And when they were
departed, behold, the angel of
the Lord appeareth to Joseph
in a dream, saying, Arise, and
take the young child and his
mother, and flee into Egypt,
and be thou there until I bring
thee word: for Herod will seek
the young child to destroy him.
2:14 When he arose, he took the
young child and his mother by
night, and departed into Egypt:
2:15 And was there until the
death of Herod: that it might
be fulfilled which was spoken
of the Lord by the prophet,
saying, Out of Egypt have I
called my son.
2:16 Then Herod, when he
saw that he was mocked of
the wise men, was exceeding
wroth, and sent forth, and
slew all the children that were
in Bethlehem, and in all the
coasts thereof, from two years
old and under, according to the
time which he had diligently
enquired of the wise men.
2:17 Then was fulfilled that
which was spoken by Jeremy
the prophet, saying,
2:18 In Rama was there a
voice heard, lamentation, and
weeping, and great mourning,
Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
2:19 But when Herod was dead,
behold, an angel of the Lord
appeareth in a dream to Joseph
in Egypt,
2:20 Saying, Arise, and take the
young child and his mother,
and go into the land of Israel:
for they are dead which sought
the young childs life.
2:21 And he arose, and took the
young child and his mother,
and came into the land of
Israel.
2:22 But when he heard that
Archelaus did reign in Judaea
in the room of his father
Herod, he was afraid to go
thither: notwithstanding, being
warned of God in a dream, he
turned aside into the parts of
Galilee:
2:23 And he came and dwelt in
a city called Nazareth: that it
might be fulfilled which was
spoken by the prophets, He
shall be called a Nazarene.

1:19 Then Joseph her husband,
being a just man, and not
willing to make her a publick
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.
1:24 Then Joseph being raised
from sleep did as the angel of
the Lord had bidden him, and
took unto him his wife:
1:25 And knew her not till she
had brought forth her firstborn son:
and he called his name JESUS.
Luke 2
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

Olive Kresge has had a wonderful display each year since she moved to Colony in 1989. She has several family members residing here.
She is a spry 76 years young; does the decorating herself.
Fires
Colony residents awoke
morning of Dec. 4 with the
shocking news of two Colony
buildings burning, Colony
Diner and Convenience (CCDC)
and Jeanie Rays Food and
Sundries. Owners of the CCDC
building are Roger Young, Gary
and LaNell Knoll. The business
was opened on Jan. 2 this year,
was formerly owned by Ed and
Nancy Ellington.
Jeanie has operated her business here for several years.
Colony has had a series of
fires. The worst was the middle
of August 1881, when a number of the best buildings in the
town were swept away by fire. It
broke out at about 6:30 p.m. in a
meat market, between the hotel
and a large store. The building
was soon engulfed in flames,
which was rapidly spread to
others, and in a short time the
Empire House, Roberts meat
market, Bufords store, Dr.
Malones office, Yokum and
Matthews furniture store,
and Matthews grocery store
were in ashes. Little was saved
from any of these businesses.
Though a hard blow to the losers, it was not long until most
of the buildings were replaced.
Latest fire aside from this
months was morning of August
2006, when the elevator was
lost; a great loss to not only the
owners, but also to farmers and
community. The loss of Colony
Diner and Jeanie Rays store is
felt deeply by the entire community. Broad Street at east
end is mostly bare, depicting
the loss daily. Community has
a good attitude things will get
better, wait and watch!
Around Town
Weldon and Wilma Goodell
celebrated their 70th wedding
anniversary at their home Dec.
12. Family members brought
the dinner, cake and flowers.
Attending were David and Marie
Plinsky, Topeka; Bill and Phyllis
Goodell, rural Colony; Terry and
Carolyn Schwab, Newton; Dean
Goodell, Ottawa. Afternoon
visitors were Carl and Darlene
Smith, Westphalia. Barry and
Jodi, Rifle, CO sent flowers.
This is the second 70th wedding anniversary of Colony residents that celebrated this year.
Ralph and Evelyn Bunnel celebrated last month at the North
Community building in Iola for
their 70th. All but one of their
eleven children attended.
Jerry and Susan Luedke
attended the first birthday of
their grandson, Trenton Luedke,
son of Justin and Angie Luedke
held Dec. 7 at Garnetts Pizza
Hut. A John Deere cake was also
served. Others attending were
his brothers Clay and Dalton,
family and friends Gene and
Nita Peine and grandson Colton,
Chris Peine and Harley, Don and
Bonnie Lyle, all of Garnett.
Interesting: In 1882 Edward
Johnson, an employee at
Thomas Edisons Illumination

became the first person to trim
a Christmas tree in lights. He
strung red, white and blue bulbs
on an electrical cord in place of
traditional wax candles!
