Garnett firemen and emergency responders rallied to a home in the 400 block of Seventh Avenue Sunday afternoon on reports of a fire. A report was
unavailable by press time Monday, but damage appeared limited to moderate smoke damage.
Vets who saw wars start thinning
Japanese attack altered
the trajectory of world
politics, and local lives
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The echoes of Dec. 7,
1941, are fading in Anderson County
as they are over the rest of America.
Sundays passing of World War
II veteran Senator Bob Dole at the
age of 98 drove that point home, but
its one that has already been made
by the passing of the years here in
Anderson County.
The Review first published the
following article in 2001 with firsthand interviews as a commemoration for Pearl Harbor Days impact
on the lives of Anderson County residents of the time. Sadly, all those
we interviewed herein for quotes
and references are now gone.
On todays occasion we thought
their stories, however, deserved a
retelling:
N
ews of the bombing of
Pearl Harbor got to
Anderson County via the
radio waves on Sunday
afternoon and later in area newspapers. For the world as well as for
the young men and women from the
county who would end up serving
and dying in the war, things would
never be the same.
I remember distinctly because I
had gone duck hunting that morning, said Roy Cole of Garnett, who
was 18 and recently graduated from
high school. I got home about one
oclock, and my dad told me the
Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor,
torn it all up and killed a bunch of
our soldiers. Cole taught two years
at Centennial School before being
drafted at the age of 20.
Ralph Sheern was in college
at the University of Kansas, and
remembers the bombing most
because it set in motion the events
that would take the life of his brother Gene, at the age of 18 in 1944. He
would go into the U.S. Navy as a
90-day wonder, an officer on one
of the college-level accelerated commissioning programs, and eventually use the G.I. Bill to go back to
get his degree. His wife Martha
remembers the shock of the attack.
I was a freshman in college at
Baker in 41, she said. Whos
interested in whats going on in the
world when youre a freshman in
college?

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WASHINGTON, D.C. Former Senator Bob
Dole last visited Anderson County in October
2014, on a final cross-Kansas tour he dubbed his
thank you tour.
The 98 year-old legendary Kansas politician
and three-time presidential candidate passed
away Saturday.
Dole said in 2014 it was his way of saying
thanks to the many Kansans whod supported him throughout the years with votes and
campaign contributions and the moral fiber he
took to Washington, D.C. as a congressman and
longtime senator.
But even then, the 91 year-old former KU
athlete, wounded veteran of World War II and
eventual Russell County Attorny and politician
had to be practically carried from the car to
a high-backed upholstered chair at Garnetts
North Side Cafe in 2014. His physical condition
was deteriorating, and there was a sense that
he wanted to convey his gratitude to the folks
of Kansas in whatever time he had left.
After a number of health challenges in
IOLA Though initial evidence that the new
Omicron variant of Covid-19 is more mild than
previous versions, public health officials are
still urging caution and continue to beat the
drum for Covid vaccine even
to include children, who are
at low risk from the virus.
As of Nov. 29 Anderson
County logged 18 active
Covid cases, up two from
the prior week according to
figures form the Southeast
Kansas
Multi-County
Health Department. A total
Johnson
of 1,227 cases of the virus
were reported in Anderson
County as of March 2020, though health officials say the number is probably far higher
since many had the virus but were never diagnosed. Kansas case numbers hit their high
point in December of last year.
A total of 22 Anderson County residents
died from the virus so far according to Kansas
Department of Health & Environment records
with a median age of death at 78.
Omicron was identified in South Africa
in late November and noted for its more
mild symptoms according to South African
researchers and doctors who treated it. But
fears of a resurgence of high numbers of infections and serious cases resulted in numerous
countries including the U.S. blocking travel to

in college at the time. He said he
remembers the sense of nationalism
that swept the KU campus.
Everyone back then wanted to
be a part of it. There was no drag-
ging heels or anything. They volunterred in masses at KU. Boots

recent years, Dole announced in Feburary he
was being treated for lung cancer.
As Dole recalled his career looking back
from 2014, he owed thanks particularly to rural
voters who stood by him over the years. After
Watergate smudged Republican reputations
and re-election efforts in down-ballot elections
during his re-election bid in 1974, it would be
Kansas rural voters who carried Dole when
he was challenged by Topeka Democrat and
physician Bill Roy.
He was greeted in Garnett by former Kansas
Attorney General Bob Stephan, then 2nd
District Congresswoman Lynn Jenkins, former
Repubican National Committeewoman June
Cooper and a host of others.
Dole told well-wishers in Garnett that day he
believed his most important legislative achievement in the Senate was helping to save Social
Security back in 1983 when financial projections forecast the insolvency of the SSI system.
Dole hammered out a deal which raised SSI
contributions and restricted payments and cost

Senate Bill 13 aimed to separate
automatic tax increases from basic
increases in property valuation
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
PARKER Republican candidate for State
Treasurer and 12th District State Senator
Caryn Tyson received national recognition
last week for her leadership
and work to make property
tax increases more visible
and accountable to Kansas
property owners.
Tyson represents Garnett
and most of Anderson County
in Kansas Senate District
12. She chairs the Senate
Assessment and Taxation
Tyson
Committee. The Jefferson
Award for Legislator of the
Year is given by the American Legislative
Exchange Council (ALEC) to award outstanding accomplishments in public service.
Tyson researched and led an effort in
Kansas to stop automatic tax increases solely
due to property valuation increases. The outcome, Senate Bill 13, is being used as model
legislation by other states seeking to show taxpayers whos really responsible for increases
in their local property taxes.
Tyson said she was humbled and honored

an Air Force aviator.
Bob Archer was on his way
to Mound City with his girlfriend and wife-to-be Marilee
to see some of her family when
the word of the bombing came
over the car radio.
You really didnt know how
to feel, he said. His family had
recently lost his older brother John, drafted shortly before
and killed in an accident on
the navy ship the Nevada prior
to the bombing of Pearl. Bob
would later serve in the army
in Europe and the southwest
Pacific.
I think it made me a better
person, he said. What I saw I
wouldnt give a million dollars
for,
Those memories continue for many WWII vets.
Sometimes I have trouble
buying Japanese-made products even today, said Bob
Young of Garnett, who was
drafted in 1945. Dad and I were
out shucking corn on Sunday
afternoon, he said. When we
cam in mom was crying, and
I wondered what in the world
was going on she know what
war was about because shed

NOVEMBER 15, 1935 – NOVEMBER 29, 2021
Glenda Lou (Ahlvers) Funk,
age 86, of Garnett, was born
the fourth of six children
November 15,
1935 to John
A.P. Ahlvers
and Lena M.
(Dieckman)
Ahlvers,
south of Glen
Elder, Kansas
in Mitchell
County.
Funk
She transitioned to her
heavenly home on November
29, 2021, at the Residential
Living Center, Garnett, Kansas.
Glenda was born at home
on the farm where she spent
most of her childhood. She
would help with chores and
was always her dads side kick,
mucking the barn, feeding the
livestock, and riding her horse
Rocket. She loved that horse
and if you know Glenda you
know Rocket as well.
Glenda graduated from
Ionia, Kansas High School in
1953. She had many fond memories of playing on the girls basketball team, tennis, softball,
and cheerleading. She continued to enjoy watching sports
throughout her life.
Glenda met the love of
her life, Harry S. Funk Jr. in
high school and they married
November 22, 1953. After high
school they moved to Largo,
Florida where Harry earned his
Barber license and then moved
them to his home town New
Wilmington, Pennsylvania,
building a home and buying
the family barbershop. Glenda
attended art school and loved
drawing and painting. She was
a natural artist as she continued to draw since she was a
little girl. Glenda had a few jobs
outside the home while her and
Harry were waiting to start a
family. She became a full time
mother to two children, Harry
III in 1962 and Holly in 1969.
She was a stay at home wife
and mother and active in the
Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts
until husband Harrys death in
October 22, 1977. Glenda went
to work at the Little Peoples
Learning Center not long after
and this is where she spent
twenty four amazing years
teaching the many community
members of Garnett. She also
was a big part of the Trinity
Lutheran Church Garnett being
a charter member of Faith
Lutheran Ottawa. She taught
Sunday school, vacation bible
school, was on many boards,
and evangelized to the many
hearts she touched. Glenda also
enjoyed her retirement years
by going fishing, bird watching, traveling, reading, crossword puzzles, and spending
time with her five grandchildren. She taught all of them
how to fish and this is their
biggest memories together.
Glenda was a wonderful cook!
She spent many hours in the
kitchen cooking many of the
old family recipes and shared
her greatest ingredient which
was Love. Glenda enjoyed
her family time, visiting with
her great grandchildren, and

OPINION
Kelly reddens as election nears
With less than a year to go before the 2022
elections and as one of the most vulnerable
governors in the country seeking another term
in office, its notable how Governor Laura Kelly
recently appears to be reddening.
As in turning more Republicanas in suddenly trying to convince Kansans after three years
as a lockdown, lockstep follower of Democratinspired liberal policy that shes really just a
centrist at heart after all.
Alas, Kansans have longer memories.
Kelly appeared almost Reaganesque in her
opposition to President Bidens ill-fated vaccine mandates. This of course against the background rumble of members of the Kansas House
and Senate rummaging in their desks for a pen
to sign the petition to convene a special session
of the legislature to wiggle Kansas out from
underneath them. With the groundswell of public opinion to such edicts more than apparent in
Kansas and Joe Biden about as popular in the
state as ringworm, the heretofore rule-loving
Kelly appeared all on board with the GOP.
It all worked in concert with Kelly first minimizing and then showing the door to white-coated Lee Norman, the nouveau pandemic Colonel
Sanders stunt double who headed the Kansas
Department of Health and Environment, and
the most identifiable image of Kellys Covid
lockdown and mask mandate attempts. The
more Norman pressed government power over
Kansans belief in their pesky civil rights, the
more Covid baggage Kelly had to carry into
November 2022.
The timing was perfect. Kelly cartwheeled to
the podium to sign Republican initiated special
session bills refuting Bidens vaccine mandates,
and then raised the ante by handing Norman his
pink slip.
With Kelly now presenting as an individual rights team player practically deserving of
her own MAGA hat, she and Allen Countys
grant-wrangling boy wonder-turned Lieutenant
Governor, David Toland, last week lassoed nearly every investment made by private businesses
in the state of late to paint themselves as the
Batman and Robin of state economic development. While the pandemic raged, Toland said,
the duos meticulous attention and savvy negotiating put a strong and comforting arm around
beleaguered businesses and brought bounty to
the Kansas economy, for which we should all
rejoice.
It was indeed a staggering turnaround, especially considering one of Kellys first moves
as governor was to retain the tax refunds due
Kansas residents, businesses and corporations
that should have been ours due to Trumps early
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
revisions of the federal tax code. Kelly kept
money that was ours to begin with, then claimed
credit for the financial risks taken by every
company that sought to expand in Kansas, while
vetoing several additional tax cut measures forwarded by Republicans in 2019 that would have
put more of your own money back into your own
pocket or to reinvest in your own business.
Interestingly, the press release touting the
Kelly/Toland teams new economic empire
neglected to mention their piece de resistance
the months-long lockdown and restrictions
of mainstreet small businesses across the state
that did nothing to stop Covid but did manage
to financial strangle local commerce and the
people who depend on it. The final tally of that
economic damage in lost sales, wages and residual economic activity may never be totaled.
The damage dwarfs that done by Kellys pal and
fellow Democrat Governor Kathleen Sebelius
when she canned the $3 billion Holcomb power
plant project years ago.
But those arent the only bitter memories
that inch into this vision of the reddening,
election-bound Governor. There was her veto
of a bill that would have protected female athletes in Kansas high schools and colleges from
having to compete against boys who say theyre
girls; there was the continual effort to expand
Medicaid benefits to more able bodied Kansans
regardless of the damaging cost estimates; she
recreated a preferred class of Kansans by giving
LGBTQ state workers rights straight folks dont
have.
The governor would like to be remembered
for a handful of actions recently that make her
look anything like the leftist policy groupee on
which she built her reputation earlier in her
term. But Kansas voters next November will see
Kellys recent turnaround for what it is a ruse
of rouge. ###

Were looking for a new city manager. I would
think we might have found him. We have a
wonderful interim city manager, why dont we
just stick it out and stay right there? Sounds
good. Lets go.
Hospitals need to realize that if you cant get
into them because of staff shortages thats just
as dangerous or even more life threatening
than having unvaccinated staff help save your
life. Your job is to care for patients no matter
what.
Thank you for publishing the picture of that
beautiful sunrise in the Nov. 23 newspaper. I
really enjoyed it. But I got to looking at it and
I couldnt figure out where Point of Rockers
was in Kansas. I went out online and its actually Point of Rocks, out by Cimarron National
Grassland. Thanks again for publishing that
beautiful photo.
Please print the comics and Sudoku and trivia
and all of that with bigger font and bigger pictres. Very difficult to read. Very hard for people with not-so-good eyesight to see the Hocus
Focus to be able to see the differences. Thanks
for publishing those fun things but they need to
be more readable. Bye now.
I know its probably been several years and Im
behind the times, but I really appreciate the
giant flag coming down from the ceiling at the
Garnett basketball games when they play the
National Anthem. Very inspiring. Thank you
very much.
So now Black Lives Matter wants Black people
to boycott the businesses of White people during
the Christmas shopping season. How about we
all just buy American and dont make our decisions based on race? Thatd be nice for a change,
wouldnt it? Thank you.

Tyson: Actions in session speak louder than words
It was never more obvious than on the
Kansas Senate floor, when conservatives
defended our freedom against federal overreach of mandating COVID-19 vaccines in the
recent one-day special session.
The legislature passed a bill that strengthens Kansas law regarding COVID-vaccines
including religious and medical exemptions
and unemployment. Employers are required
to accept these religious exemptions to
Kansans who seek them.
Also, employers are required to accept
requests for medical exemptions that include
a doctors signature. Unemployment benefits
were not available to employees who lost or
will lose their job due to not receiving COVID19 shots, but now they are.
The 25th Special Session in Kansas began
November 22, 2021 and ended the same day.
The day began with both the Senate and the
House going directly to the floor to debate and
work on legislation to block the federal vaccine mandates.
Both chambers passed legislation and a
conference committee was called to work out
differences. The final legislation passed the
Senate 24 to 11 and the House 77 to 34. I voted
Yes. The Governor signed the bill into law.
It was the first time in Kansas history the
Governor was forced to call a special session
by a petition of 2/3 the legislators.
KANSAS LEGISLATURE
CARYN TYSON, 12th District Senate
It was reported in an online newspaper that
the Governor requested Democrats not sign
the petition for a special session. Thankfully,
Republicans heard the cry of Kansans and
stood together to face off with an increasingly
overreaching federal government to sign the
petition 29 senators and 84 representatives
and the Governor signed the legislation into
law.
It is a victory for protecting Kansans liberties.
But we have more to do when the regular
session begins in January, at the top of the list
is to stop Contact Tracing by government in
Kansas.
Governor Kellys administration has been
contact tracing since the earlier day sof te
pandemic collecting data on a person who
may have been in contact with an infected
person. Last year, they went as far as tracking
the movement of Kansans cell phones. This
is invasive, a violation of our right to privacy
and is another form of government overreach.
Because of the time constraints on the special session, Contact Tracing and other topics
were not discussed. In fact, it was requested that we hold amendments to the COVID19 mandates until regular session beginning
January 10, 2022. Myself and others respected
the request and have legislation ready for next
session.
There will be many important topics in the
2022 session. Blocking overreaching government mandates, stopping Critical Race Theory
(CRT) from being taught in our schools, government transparency, removing sales tax on
food, elections, and many other topics will be
worked during next session.
You may follow the bills and watch meetings online at www.KSLegislature.org.
I hope that you are able to enjoy the holidays. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

of Kansas representing Anderson County.
Nike, Lebron James ooze hypocrisy on China
Nikes latest TV ad is another slick paean
to individual empowerment and prevailing
despite the naysayers.
Centered around Memphis Grizzlies star
Ja Morant, the commercial features various
people doubting that Morant can keep up his
stellar play, to which someone always cheekily replies, Says who?
Yes, Nike believes anything is possible — so
long as it doesnt involve doing anything to
cross one of the worlds most hideously repressive regimes.
The grotesque hypocrisy of the Nike-NBA
industrial complex and its biggest star, Lebron
James, has been underlined in recent weeks
by Boston Celtics player Enes Kanter, who
has been on a one-man crusade against the
Chinese Communist Party and those too cowardly or greedy to call it out.
James — the owner of four NBA championship rings who has appeared in a jaw-dropping
10 NBA finals — has views on all sorts of public
controversies and doesnt hesitate to air them
so long as they are comfortably within the
fashionable woke consensus.
On China, though, hes mute. So are his
employers. They all portray themselves as
champions of social justice and of courage and
striving, but their commitment to these causes
and values stops at the waters edge — and at
their bottom line.
When a couple of years ago, the Houston
Rockets general manager got thrown under
the bus by the NBA for tweeting in support of
pro-democracy protestors in Hong Kong, King
James pronounced him not educated on the
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
situation.
The Lakers forward affirmed a right to free
speech — thanks, GOAT! — but said we have to
be careful what we say. So many people, he
warned, could have been harmed, not only
financially but physically, emotionally, spiritually.
Never has so much harm been attributed to
a small message of public support for plucky
idealists about to be steamrolled by a totalitarian government.
During the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, by the
way, James mocked Rittenhouses tears on the
stand, doubting they were real — apparently
because hes an expert on what constitutes
genuine signs of post-traumatic stress.
If Rittenhouse had control over whether a
vast market would be open to James and the
corporations hes affiliated with, the Lakers
star surely would have stayed silent.
When Kanter tweeted, Money over Morals
for the King, and wore sneakers portraying
James bowing down to get crowned by Chinese
dictator Xi Jinping for a Celtics-Lakers game,
James brushed it off. He accused Kanter of
trying to use my name to create an opportunity for himself.
Actually, Kanters activism, calling out his
league and a massively influential corporation, is what everyone says they value — a lonely, unwelcome campaign against well-heeled
interests too compromised to defy a powerful
entity perpetrating rank injustices.
After Nike got blowback in China for a relatively anodyne statement expressing concern
about forced labor in Xinjiang — the epicenter
of the regimes repression of the Uyghurs — the
companys CEO said Nike is a brand of China
and for China.
Nike lobbied Congress to weaken an antiforced-labor bill, lest a measure aimed at
crimping a vast human-rights abuse discomfit
the corporate giant too greatly.
Says who? the new Nike ad asks. Clearly,
the Chinese regime.
You cant stop us, intoned a viral ad last
year. Well, actually you can, provided you are
an authoritarian bully with an enormous consumer base.
Just do it went the most iconic Nike ad.
No, second thought, better to Just dont if it
might anger a government that disappeared
a star athlete for the offense of accusing an
official of sexual assault and is preparing to

HISTORY
Day two at new site – more to come Model T Club Christmas to be Dec. 11
DIGGING UP THE PAST
Henry Roeckers
Call (785) 504-4722 for
local archeology information.
My excavations at my new
site continue on. Today I had
a visitor at my site, therefore
my digging day was shortened.
A gentleman who was born and
raised in the house when it was
still there stopped by. Golly I
found out tons of information
about the site. These are the
artifacts found along one of the
sidewalks: square nails, tin
spoon, concrete nail, double
hook, clock wind stem, smashed
oil lamp wick holder, revial
12-gauge shotgun shell, broken
key, brass item?, decorated dish
ware shard, green glass button,
mother -of pearl-button.
Hopefully tomorrow will be a
better find day.

Colony Christian Church – Prepare the People
Brant McGhee gave the
Communion Meditation, "Tis
the Season". With the time
change, cooler temperatures,
gazing at the stars, leaves
falling, stumbling thru the
woods… it's Coon hunting season! Driving around at night in
search of coons, you can sometimes find yourself just blowing
right thru those back country
stop signs without even really
thinking about their importance, and the repercussions of
doing so. How many of us take
Communion like that? Stop
signs direct traffic and keep
us safe. The Bible offers simple (yet entirely more important) instructions. We need to
look inward (what God wants/
needs us to change within us),
outward (how can we help
others), upward (at what is to
come), and backwards (at what
he's done for us). So dont just
blow right thru Communion.
Stop and look at the significance and importance of what
you're about to partake in.
(Ref: 1 Corinthians 11:28-29;
Matthew 26:28; Luke 22:19)
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon "Prepare the People
and Clear the Way". Christmas
marks the beginning of the
most important road we'll ever
take, following Jesus. God had
to become man, live a perfect
life, die and rise again; and
he sent someone to clear the
way for him. John the Baptist
was sent to "clear the way for
the Lord's coming". His parents were in the priestly line of
Aaron, and he was a man with
the spirit and power of Elijah.
When Mary visited Elizabeth
during her pregnancy, the
baby in her womb "jumped for
joy". He was filled with the
Holy Spirit even before his
birth. For 400 years, the Jews
had been waiting for God to
speak to them thru a prophet,
and John was the prophet sent,
"shouting in the wilderness" to
prepare the way for Jesus. He
instructed the people to prove
by the way they live that they
had repented of their sins and
turned to God. He was not passive and he stood up for what
he knew was true, said what
needed to be said, called out
sin, and didn't back down. We
have all that we need to be prepared for the coming of Jesus,
yet we still allow obstacles in
our way. The path that leads to
Jesus is clear, and it is ready
for you to take. (Ref: Luke 1:5-25
& 39-44 & 67-79, 3:4-8 & 17; John
1:23; Isaiah 7:14; Malachi 4:5-6)

BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – After a slow start,
the Anderson County Lady
Bulldogs pulled away over the
final three quarters to cruise
to a 45-27 win in their season
opener against Iola.
After the first 8 minutes, AC
and Iola were knotted up at 10.
From that point on, it was
all Bulldogs. Anderson County
outscored Iola 12-5 in the second quarter, 12-9 in the third
and really put the clamps on
defensively outpacing Iola 11-3
to put an exclamation point on
an impressive win.
Anderson County absolutely dominated Iola in the
paint, outscoring them 32-6
and pulling down 23 offensive
rebounds compared to just 4
for Iola.
Caitlyn Foltz paced the
Bulldogs with 23 points and 11
rebounds.

For years Kansans have
been facing continued increases in their property taxes,
being left with little to no say,
resulting in some opting to
leave Kansas rather than continue to pay high taxes. With
the passage of SB 13, the shell
game of who raised your property taxes will end.
Under the bill, local property taxing authorities would
have to vote at a public meeting
to raise property taxes in order
to collect more money than the
previous year.
Tyson acknowledged the
help of others who helped on
the bill. Solutions of this magnitude do not occur in a vacuum, she said. It takes a team
of people, many of us who spent
time and effort. Tyson said
she drew upon her business
experience to design and implement this system in Kansas.
In addition to Property Tax
Transparency, SB 13 prohibits
an increase in the appraised
value of real property solely
as a result of normal repair,
replacement, or maintenance
of existing structures, equipment, or other improvements
on the property, allows county
treasurers to establish property tax payment plans, and
removes the ineffective tax lid.
The American Legislative
Exchange Council is Americas
largest nonpartisan, voluntary
membership organization of
state legislators dedicated to
the principles of limited government, free markets and federalism. Comprised of nearly
one-quarter of the countrys
state legislators and stakeholders from across the policy spectrum, ALEC members
represent more than 60 million
Americans and provide jobs to
more than 30 million people in
the United States.
Tyson has math and computer science degrees from Kansas
State Uiversity and an engineering management degree
from the University of Kansas.
After graduating K-State she
began working in the information technology industry and
continued working in this field
for more than 30 years.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 12-7-2021 / DANE HICKS
Chelsea DAlbini reads to a group of kids Sunday afternoon at the Garnett Lions Clubs annual kids
Christmas Party held at the Garnett Senior Center. Santa showed up along with the cookies and punch
and gave all the kids toys.
Thanksgiving is behind us.
Anytime we gather our friends
and relatives together we often
are disappointed. Most often
because our expectations dont
align with theirs. Im not
always sure in my case who
is at fault. If we are always
sure it is someone else maybe
its time to rethink our situation. Perhaps one of the most
important lessons we can begin
to understand is we need to
allow for our vulnerability and
that of others because that is
who we really are. Too often at
gatherings we feel the need to
disguise our feelings. In rare
instances this may prove to be
beneficial but not to the extent
we practice it. If you are in
a room full of people like this
how can anything relational
come out of this? The result
is the same old thing we fail to
communicate our true feelings
to one another.
For the most part, although
I still fall back into bad habits,
I have mastered the problem
of vulnerability. You see hiding our vulnerability is a heart
issue and anytime we have a
heart issue our well-being is
threatened. I cant say that
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL

dealing with this issue is easy.
But you see if no one truly
knows you it is a lonely existence.
A couple of thoughts in
conclusion. When God sees
us, and like it or not we live
before the face of God every
day, what person does he see?
Is he pleased or does he barely
know us? Allowing our vulnerability to show through our
life relieves us of striving to be
perfect in an imperfect world.
Second it allows us to meet
meet God at his level rather
than trying to bring him down
to our level.
Ministry on the Holiness of God.

Vikings down Chase County
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND – The Central
Heights Viking boys started
each half strong en route to a
50-39 win over Chase County.
The Vikings outpaced
Chase County 17-9 in the first
and 16-8 in the third while
being outscored 13-8 in the
fourth quarter.
Ethan Rowan scored 18
points and Luke Burkdoll was
the only other Viking to join
him in double figures with 10.
Rowan also had a team high
6 rebounds.
Central Heights won the
game in large part due to their
three point shooting. The
Vikings connected on 8 of 17
attempts for 47%

and from South Africa. A case
was discovered in Missouri
late last week. SEK MCHD
director Rebecca Johnson said
at this point the numbers were
in Kansans favor.
With over 64% of the eligible population fully vaccinated,
Kansas is more prepared for
Omicron than previous variants, Johnson said. Experts
continue to believe that the
COVID-19 vaccine will continue to protect those who are vaccinated against severe disease
and death.
Numerous cases of infection
have been documented after
having taken the vaccine however, and substantial resistance
is still apparent among large
segments of the populations to
taking the vaccine among fears
its long-term effects could be
worse than getting the virus
and producing ones own natural immunity.
Johnson noted both the
vaccine, boosters and child
vaccinations for kids five and
over are available locally, and
pressed the precautions of vaccinations, boosters and mask
wearing to defend against the
virus.

cost of living increases
along with fellow Senator
Daniel Patrick Moynihan,
Democrat from New York,
and other Senators from
both parties in an example of bipartisanship that
would set the tone for congressional cooperation.
His biggest disappointment was not getting a balanced budget amendment
approved in the mid-1990s,
he said.
I believe the federal government should live within its means, Dole said of
the then-$18 trillion federal
deficit. That number today
stands at some $29 trillion,
or $912,000 per American
taxpayer.
Dole was Gerald Fords
vice-presidential pick in
1976, and gained his partys
nomination in 1996 when
he lost to Bill Clinton. He
was instrumental in fund
raising and construction of
Washingtons World War
II Memorial, and often met
other veterans touring the
memorial during Honor
Flights arranged in tribute
to them.
