Map veto overridden, lawsuits fly
Suits claim map
violates constitution by
diluting minority voices
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Anderson County
has a new home in the 3rd
Congressional District after
Kansas Legislators overrode
Governor Laura Kellys veto
of a new congressional district
map last week at least pending the outcome of at least two
lawsuits attempting to throw
out the map filed as of Monday
afternoon.
Republicans in the Kansas
Senate tried earlier but failed
to override Kellys veto of
the map, which splits half of
Wyandotte County from its
traditional home in the third
district along with Johnson
County and Miami County and
groups it with the expansive
1st District which runs clear
to Kansas western border. The
new map moves Anderson and
Franklin counties from the 2nd
District to the third.
Growth in Johnson County
spurred the need for the change
in the map. The 3rd District
according to 2020 census data
grew some 58,000 people over
the 734,000 one man, one vote
law target, necessitating that
the district had to give up some
population.
Complaints in the lawsuits,
so far filed by the American
Civil Liberties Union of Kansas
and minority voting organization Loud Light of Topeka,
charge the map violates the
Kansas Constitution by favoring Republicans and diluting
minority voting strength.
Republicans were able
to convert two Republican
Senators who first voted
against the override to support
it on a second vote to garner
a majority 27 votes in the 40
member chamber after offering
some political incentives they
favored. The House vote, where
Republicans also hold a strong
majority, was 85-37.
Democrats have railed
against the new map, saying its
aim was to weaken Democrat
Congresswoman
Sharice
Davids in the 3rd District and
give Republican candidates a
better chance of winning in
the 3rd, where Democrats were
concentrated in Wyandotte and
to a lesser degree in Johnson
counties. Kelly vetoed the map
after it passed both houses the
City brainstorms trash power plant,
multi-project sales tax bond issue
Plant would burn trash to
produce power and might be
competitor for regional refuse
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City commissioners last
week brainstormed a large-scale infrastructure funding plan as well as an
incinerator project to burn part of the
citys trash as opposing to paying for its
disposal.
The discussions came up during public
and commissioner comments at Tuedays
regular commission meeting.
The incinerator discussion follows
an ongoing issue for the city regarding the payment of increasing costs for
trash disposal at the Anderson County
Landfill. Discussions in December 2020
came to a standstill after city officials
examined the possibility of building its
own transfer station or hauling trash to
the Coffey County Landfill where rates
were cheaper. Both those options were
deemed not cost effective, and pleas with
county commissioners to reduce landfill
rates and even to continue the tradition
of a free dump day for city residents got
no response.
The city presently pays $45 per ton
for waste disposal at the local landfill.
Garnett refuse employee Wes
Keller said at the meeting the
city dumped 8 tons of trash on
Tuesday alone.
Known as waste to energy
plants, these type municipal
incinerators burn household
waste to produce electricity.
With modern environmental
measures they produce less pollution than coal fired plants but
more than natural gas powered
plants. The Waste To Energy
International website lists a

GARNETT Lawyers for the
prosecution and defense will

hearing aimed to determine if a
search warrant that resulted in
felony drug charges against a
Garnett man should be thrown

in the felony case against Tom

Avenue in Garnett. Emerson
faces 12 felony charges as well
as a misdemeanor, mostly
revolving around distributing
methamphetamine and using
a cell phone to aid in that process.

home. Emersons attorney,
Jess Hoeme, maintained in his
motion to quash the warrant
that Kimball could not have
been detached or neutral in
issuing the warrant because of
the alleged prior relationship
with Emerson.
Kimball has said through his
attorney that no previous relationship existed, and that he
knew Emerson only through
Emersons association with the

Bill would exempt 5x present amount from school property tax
If enacted it would
remove first $100,000
from school tax roll
BY TIM CARPENTER
THE KANSAS REFLECTOR
TOPEKA Passage of property tax legislation in the Kansas
Senate would exempt $100,000
of the assessed value on residential property from the
20-mill tax used by the state
to finance public schools and
would result in a decline of
nearly $150 million annually in
state revenue.
Since 1997, state law has
required the first $20,000 of
assessed value to be exempted
from the statewide mill levy for
K-12 education. Under Senate
Bill 431, that exemption from
would be five times larger
starting in tax year 2022.
A lobbyist for Kansas realtors endorsed the bill Thursday.
No one stood in opposition
to the measure. It was introduced by Sen. Caryn Tyson, a
Parker Republican who chairs
the Senate Assessment and
Taxation Committee. She is
seeking the GOP nomination
for state treasurer in 2022.
The Kansas Department
of Revenue estimated the bill
would curtail state property
tax revenue by $147 million to
$149 million each year.
To sustain state aid to public schools, the Legislature and
Gov. Laura Kelly would need to
increase appropriations from
the state treasury by a corresponding amount.
Mark Tomb, of the Kansas
Association of Realtors, said
the organization endorsed the
bill because the $20,000 exemption was no longer meaningful because it failed to keep
pace with inflation in the
price of homes. He said the
real estate sector was burdened
with excessive taxes by state
and local government.
While we realize the importance of many programs funded through property tax revenues, we believe tax revenues
should be equitably collected
from a variety of sources and
encourage taxing jurisdictions
to consider the negative impact
to the housing market associated with any potential increase
in property tax rates, he said.
Jim Karleskint, a former
state legislator representing
United School Administrators,
said the organization was neutral on the bill. However, he
said, legislators should be wary
of potential financial challenges of shifting away from a stable source of tax revenue for
K-12 education to the state general fund subject to economic
fluctuations and tax revenue
twists and turns.
He recommended the Senate
committee consider a gradual
increase in the exemption to
$40,000 or so rather than take
the full step to $100,000. He said
a potential sharp decline in
overall state tax revenue could
lead to legal challenges based
on the school finance formula.
We wish all citizens have
the opportunity to reduce the
amount that is paid in property taxes, Karleskint said. We
encourage the committee to be
cautious in their actions on
this legislation.

Finding balance, that is living our lives in a fashion that
allows us to assign an equal
amount of time or value to the
aspects of our life that will
produce a balanced life is one
of the most difficult tasks we
face. In order to master this
difficult task we need to look
to Jesus to see an example of
how he lived his life and to
establish a Godly pattern. If
we look to Galatians 5:22-23, the
Apostle Paul specifies what a
Christ like life should exhibit.
When Jesus ascended to heaven he sent us a helper, the Holy
Spirit. Paul lists in the referenced text the characteristics
of a Spirit filled life as follows,
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, faithfulness, gentleness
and self-control. These are
the character traits that Jesus
Christ displayed in his time
on earth. What better example
can we use?
Now the question needs to
be asked. In what areas of our
life do we need to apply these
characteristics? Four distinct
areas are identified within the
pages of scripture. The first
area we need to achieve balance in is in our relationship
with God. In Jeremiah 25:7 the
God says to the prophet. I will
give them a heart to know me,
that I am LORD. They will be
my people and I will be their
God, for they will return to me
with all their heart.
Our pursuit of God should
be grounded in the ordinary
means of grace, study of scripture, prayer, church attendance and the sacraments.
This will result in a personal
relationship with Jesus Christ.
God is satisfied more with
commitment than an allocated amount of time and as our
commitment grows so does our
relationship with God.
The next area we need to
find a balance in is our basic
needs. This would be things
that are essential for us to
have. God covers this for us
in two commandments. You
shall have no other gods before
me and You shall not covet.
Anything that we worship or
covet is contrary to the first
and greatest commandment.
As we become more committed
and intentional we will realize what things are of value in
Gods economy.
This brings us to the third
area which we are seeking to
find balance for, our family.
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
Here is where exhibiting the
fruits of the Spirit will serve us
well. Many times it is not that
we dont spend time with our
family it is the quality of time
we spend. If we are constantly
managing crisis that time is of
little value. By exhibiting the
fruits of the Spirit in our lives
we can turn a crisis time into a
time of teaching our loved ones
how to handle different situations effectively. Again we
must go back to the ordinary
means of grace, prayer, study
of scripture, church attendance.
Prayer- 1st Peter 3:12, For
the eyes of the Lord are upon
the righteous and his ears are
attentive to their prayer.
Scripture- 2nd Timothy 3:16,
All scripture is God-breathed
and is useful for teaching,
rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that
the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good
work.
Do not forsake the assembly.
The fourth area we are seeking balance in is the church.
Contrary to what most people
think the work of the church,
that is the hands and feet, of
the church is not all to be done
by the pastor. This is where
it becomes critical to understand our spiritual gifts. It is
also just as important that we
understand the areas we need
to strengthen. By understanding both our areas of strength
and weakness our work within the church will reflect the
fruit of the spirit. Acts 20:28;
Be shepherds of the church of
God which he bought with his
own blood. When we have
obtained balance in our life we
can then begin to disciple others effectively and as Paul said,
Be all things to all people.
Ministry on the Holiness of God.

OPINION
Votes still count after redistricting
Commence the hand-wringing and clutching
of pearls.
Its the decennial rite of redistricting in
Kansas and elsewhere, so Leftists and their
legal lackeys are in full-throated angst as states
fulfill their constitutional duties to re-draw congressional and state legislative districts based
on U.S. Census data every ten years.
Were being disenfranchised the perpetual
victims bray. Its the return of Jim Crow.
Theyre lying.
To disenfranchise someone is to take away
their vote, to unfairly prevent them from casting a ballot. We legally do that to felons, or to
illegal immigrants; although those rules are
falling by the wayside
Liberals are just in recent years in our
Woke its nobodys

weve had an ugly history of illegally doing
here. Always
so. HAD an ugly history. Poll taxes, literseeking to claim acy tests, English-only
requirements, outright
all were
victimhood, and intimidation;
used in the past to keep
poor, minorities, and
where possible, immigrants of voting
age from casting a ballot. We even prevented

19th Amendment. We
got rid of the rest of
that garbage with the
passage of the Voting
Rights Act in 1965.
Much to the dismay of the History Deniers
and Statue Removers, we can, and do, admit,
and correct, our mistakes in order to form a
more perfect Union. The U.S. will always be a
work in progress.
By the way, the present-day Voting Rights
Act seeking to federalize our elections, so radical even sane Democrats are running away
from it, is misnamed. Its not about voting
rights, rather its all about voting rules; no
photo ID, ballot harvesting, no-excuse absentee
voting, voting by mail with no rules, and federal monitors overseeing it all. Weve defeated it
for now, but must remain vigilant.
Well hear the term gerrymandering a
lot in coming weeks. The name comes from

governor of Massachusetts, and one of the two
vice-presidents of James Madison to die in

office. Madison was the only president to bury
both of his second-in-commands; a distinction
that might have made it difficult for him to find
another running mate had he sought a third
term.
As governor, Gerry signed into law a redistricting bill with one of its state Senate districts
so oddly shaped that it resembled a salamander.
An opponent labeled it a Gerrymander, and
the name has stuck for more than two centuries as an example of a district designed by the
party in power to stay in power. Nothing illegal,
immoral, or fattening about it. Sometimes, its
important who you vote for.
However configured, all registered and
legal voters at the time, could still cast a
vote, regardless of party affiliation. So can
todays Republicans in NewYork, Illinois, and
California and Democrats in Alabama, Idaho,
and North Dakota.
Liberals are just being liberals here. Always
seeking to claim victimhood, and where possible, attach a racial element for good measure.
For the next few weeks, while the courts invariably settle this argument, liberals will call upon
their friend Jim Crow regularly, even though
they wont know his history any more than
they know Elbridge Gerrys.
That dog, of course wont hunt. Nothing in
redistricting law or the process disenfranchises
anyone. The right to vote is guaranteed but
not the right to keep your voting bloc together.
An unbiased review of the law should be
clear on the subject: although your influence
may be diluted in your new district, you can
still vote early, but not often.
Hear that, Lawrence?

Mr Hicks I read your editorial with interest in
Tuesdays paper. With all due respect I think
you missed the point of masks. The point of
masks never had anything to do with health,
there was never any data to back up the assertion that masks helped reduce transmission.
Masks were a political symbol, not a health
care symbol. They were a symbol of your compliance to the government and the elites the
idea that were going to tell you what to do and
youre going to do it. Surprisingly they found a
lot of people who never questionned it, but not
everybody. Thank you.

Is secret juice worth public squeeze
Your scientists were so preoccupied with
whether or not they could, they didnt stop to
think if they should.
Ian Malcolm, Jurassic Park
Should the state spend $1.3 billion in public
handouts to bring a secret factory to Kansas?
Pretty hard to give an informed yes on this
one due to the glaring secret part.
Right now, the Kansas Department of
Commerce is asking the legislature to pass a
bill allocating $1.3 billion in various incentives, including reimbursing up to 10 percent
of payroll costs, as well as providing various
tax credits and exemptions.
The promised return is a high-end technology factory that provides 4,000 jobs averaging
$50,000 in pay a year.
We dont know what the company is or
what it does. We dont know where the company will go.
Obscuring both points makes sense to those
who want to get this deal done in case Kansans
wont want the company or simply wont care
to fund it once they find out its in Johnson
County.
What we do know is that those in favor continue to laud it as transformative.
GUEST COMMENTARY
ADAM STRUNK, HARVEY COUNTY NOW
The information on the project is hidden by
various non-disclosure agreements signed by
state employees and legislators.
Lets remove the politics for a second. If
Sam Brownback did this, every Democrat in
Kansas would have lined up and said, This is
stupid. Laura Kellys administration is drawing its share of GOP skeptics of the plan.
Instead, lets talk about numbers. $1.3 billion
is an astronomical sum that we mortal ants
cant wrap our heads around.
But we can do some division.
If our local city said we have to spend $1.3
million to bring in four jobsa proportional
analogywould anyone in town call that a
smart decision? We sure wouldnt.
If they then said these expenditures are
all on a super-secret company and you cant
know who, wed yell bloody murder, as would
most residents. And thats for something in
our backyard that were much more likely to
benefit from.
Wed reason that we shouldnt pay $320,000
in incentives for a $50,000 job. The public
return is minuscule.
If this was how we did business at a local
level, wed give $1.3 million to the vast majority of our businesses for the four jobs they
create. And quickly go broke.
We shouldnt focus on the jobs but the
transformative effect the business would
have, those in favor have argued. OK. So it
needs suppliers. Are the estimated amount
of new suppliers already baked into the 4,000
permanent jobs figure?
Would those suppliers be in the state? Is
the location of this super factory near, say, the
Missouri border and most of the employees
end up living in Missouri? Jobs averaging

Spotify tell Cancel Culture to get over it
There have been many unpleasant paid jobs
throughout history, from executioner to leech
collector to nitpicker. Now, to this litany of
gruesome and onerous work, must be added
being employed by Spotify in the 21st century.
The CEO of the streaming company, besieged
by a highly motivated cancellation mob out for
podcaster Joe Rogans scalp, apologized to his
employees in a statement for the way The Joe
Rogan Experience controversy continues to
impact each of you.
According to Daniel Ek, the Spotify team
has been left feeling drained, frustrated and
unheard. Yes, following inane and hysterical
commentary on Twitter, Instagram, and other
social media platforms about the alleged evils
of a podcaster who interviews people and listens to their views, then posts the recordings
for other people to listen to as they choose,
must be wrenching.
To his credit, Ek hasnt canceled Rogan and
he backed free speech, although from a defensive crouch. Indeed, his groveling, cant-filled
missive is characteristic of such statements
by organizations under pressure to suppress
unwelcome views. They almost always accept
the premises of the cancelers and treat the
aggrieved as delicate hot-house plants on the
verge of collapse if they dont get their way.
Is it too much, for once, for people in a position of supposed authority to tell the offended
to get over it and buck up like adults living
in a free society? Eks statement suggests the
answer is still no.
He assured Spotify employees that hes

thinking about what additional steps we can
take to further balance creator expression
with user safety. He promised to consult outside experts on this question. He also pledged
to devote $100 million, equal to the amount
Spotify spent on its licensing agreement for
Rogans podcast, on licensing, developing, and
marketing music and audio content from historically marginalized groups.
I deeply regret, he reiterated, that you
are carrying so much of this burden.
All in all, it was a performance worthy of a
college dean trying to talk down students who
may come for him or her next.
What, for instance, does user safety mean?
Listening to a song or a podcast is not like
operating a piece of dangerous heavy machinery. Anyone getting behind the wheel of, say,
a mobile hydraulic crane needs absolutely to
know what he is doing at imminent risk of
causing harm to himself or others. Someone
listening to an uncongenial podcast can turn
it off and listen to something else or nothing at
all, in total safety.
As for unheard, it is left-wing argot that
has seeped into the mainstream. It is a meaningless term in this context. If a coder at
Spotify feels unheard, so what? It isnt his or
her job to opine on controversies over content.
Moreover, all too often those claiming to be
metaphorically unheard insist that the only
way to get themselves heard is to make someone else literally unheard via cancellation.
The pledge of $100 million for more content
is at least a gesture toward the notion that
the solution to speech you dont like is more
speech. Yet, it reeks of a shakedown and an
implicit bargain throwing resources at the
would-be cancelers of Joe Rogan so they will go
away and try to cancel someone else.
Ek clearly believes that by giving ground,
by putting content warnings on some Rogan
podcasts and removing others, while making
apologetic sounds, he can weather this storm.
Maybe. But the fever for cancellations wont
end until the likes of Ek are courageous and
tough-minded enough to tell the mob and its
whiny fellow travelers that offensive speech
isnt a threat to anyones safety or emotional
well-being, and that theyre done pretending
otherwise.
The debate over speech in this country is too
often defined by people using their childishSEE LOWRY ON PAGE 5A

I never thought Id see more American spirit
coming out of Canadian truck drivers than I do

As a society we should be reinforcing the idea
that our youth give up some of their time on
social media. It can be so destructive. Lots of
books on the subject that are written for them
to read. Rent library books or buy used to share
with your family and others.

(143) capped a solid regular

over Jailyn Rodriguez (19-11)
of Columbus High School.
Sheahan would win by

over Taylor Plumley (16-3) of

Disbrow sets new
Bulldogs rally for
records in win over Oz 4th quarter win
OSAWATOMIE Playing on
back to back nights is never
easy, but the AC Lady Bulldogs
pulled away after a sluggish
start and posted an impressive
49-28 win over Osawatomie on
Tuesday night.
The Bulldogs held a slim
12-11 lead after the first quarter
but were able to get their lead
to double digits by intermission with a 17-8 advantage in
the second quarter to make it
29-19 at halftime.
The
defense
kept
Osawatomie from making any
sort of run in the second half.
Oz was limited to just 9 points
over the final 2 quarters. The
Lady Bulldogs didn't exactly
light up the scoreboard but
tallied 20 points in the final 2
periods.
ACHS shot just 28% in the
game but Osawatomie was
much worse at just 19%. Oddly
enough Oz shot just 1 of 22 on
two point field goal attempts in
the game.
This was in large part due
to an amazing 17 blocks in the
game for Anderson County.
To go along with a 17-0
advantage in blocks, Anderson
County dominated the rebound
68-30 on the night. AC had a
30-8 advantage just on offensive
rebounds alone.
The inside dominance was
obvious in a 15-0 advantage
on second chance points and
30-0 advantage on points in the
paint.
Kylie Disbrow stole the
show scoring 21 points. It was
just a part of a record breaking
triple double that included the
highest rebounding and blocks
in a single game. Disbrow
pulled down an incredible
27 rebounds and swatted 13
Osawatomie shots. For good
margin, Disbrow tacked on 3
steals in the game.
Caitlyn Foltz put up a double
double herself. Foltz scored 11
points and had 19 rebounds.

five nights for the AC Lady

the stretch with a late rally to
down Iola on the road Friday
night, 39-32.
Fatigue appeared to be a
large part of the struggles on
Friday night, but a team can't
ever be overlooked even if it is
the same team that Anderson
County knocked off 45-27 to
open the season.
It was a tight game all evening. The two teams were tied
at 8 after the first quarter and

the world would doubt him less.
(Ref: Psalm 103:1-22 & 34:2)
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon "Trust in God:
Abraham". God called Abram
to do several things in his life.
The first was to leave his home.
Leaving everything you know
isn't easy, especially when
things are going good. God didn't
tell Abram where he would be
going, or any details about the
are. He just said, "Go". He went
where God led him, and spent
most of his life in a tent. And
just like Paul, he "learned to be
content with whatever I have".
Sometimes we get caught up
in worrying about things, that
we miss the blessing that will
come after we're gone. Abraham
was happy to live contently just
knowing that sometime in the
future, his descendants would
be blessed. WE are Abraham's
blessing! We should have faith
like Abraham. To go where God
tells us to go, and to be content with a little or with a lot,
and with the blessings to come.
Abraham wasn't perfect. He
failed as a father, and as a husband. Just like us, he messed
up, but he didn't give up. He
chose to step up. (Ref: James 4:7;
Hebrews 11:8-12; Genesis 12:1 &
4 & 13:14-16; Philippians 4:11-12;

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, February 15, 2022
Lady Vikings win
2 of 3 last week
RICHMOND – It was a busy
week for the Central Heights
Vikings as the girls played
Tuesday at Northern Heights,
Thursday at home against
Council Grove and hit the road
on Friday as they traveled to
Jayhawk-Linn.
After opening the week with
a loss to Northern Heights
41-29, the Vikings would
rebound to defeat both Council
Grove 41-34 and Jayhawk-Linn
35-32.
In the loss to Northern
Heights, the Lady Vikings
played them tough in the first
half trailing 8-7 after the first
quarter and would actually
lead 16-15 at halftime.
But following intermission,
Northern Heights bottled up
the Vikings offense limiting
them to just 4 points in the
third quarter to open up a 25-20
lead heading into the fourth.
It really came down to
a game of free throws late.
Central Heights mustered just
one second half field goal but
connected on 11 of their 14 free
throw attempts to stay within reach but Northern Heights
pulled away late with a 16-9
advantage in the fourth quarter.
Erykah Haynes led the
Vikings with 15 points.
In the Thursday win over
Council Grove, the Vikings
trailed 17-16 at halftime. A
solid third quarter which
saw Central Heights outscore
Council Grove 13-8 was the
turning point.
The Vikings wouldnt relinguish their 29-25 lead heading
into the fourth quarter as they
once again made a living from
the line. Central Heights connected on 7 free throws in the
final quarter to help keep their
distance and finish out the win.
A trio of Vikings hit double figures with 10 points.
They were Lily Meyer, Bailey
Brockus and Cameron Peel.
Friday night was the closest
of the games for the week and
came down to the final minute
as the Vikings held on for a 3
point win over Jayhawk-Linn.
Jayhawk-Linn and Central
Heights were all tied up after
the first quarter at 9. The
Vikings held a three point
lead at halftime, 19-16 before
Jayhawk-Linn chipped away to
cut the deficit to a single point,
29-28, heading into the fourth.
Both teams struggled over
the final 8 minutes as the
Vikings scored just 6 points
but they limited Jayhawk-Linn
to just 4 to hold on for the win.
Peel led all scorers with 13
points in the game.
Lady Bulldogs fade
down the stretch in loss
CARBONDALE
Last
Monday, February 7, the
Anderson County Bulldog girls
hit the road and traveled to
Carbondale to take on Santa Fe
Trail and despite the Bulldogs
taking the lead early in the
third, SFT pulled away late for
a 60-45 victory.
Santa Fe Trail appeared to
be in control early on, staking
themselves to an early 20-12
lead heading into the second
quarter.
That lead would get to as
large as 14 in the second quarter but the Bulldogs would
rally over the final 4 minutes of
the quarter and cut the deficit
down to 28-24 at halftime.
It was all Anderson County
in the opening minutes of the
second half. The AC girls briefly held the lead in the open-
ing minutes but Santa Fe Trail
would once again seize control
down the stretch and nearly
double up their halftime lead at
42-35.
SFT continued to keep the
game under their control with
a 18-10 advantage over the final
8 minutes of play.
What has plagued the
Bulldogs throughout the season is fast break points and
SFT held an 18-2 advantage in
that department as well as an
18-7 advantage in points off of
turnovers.
The loss spoiled a great
performance by Caitlyn Foltz.
Foltz scored 21 points and
added 11 rebounds.
Brooklyn Kurtz also scored
double digits with 13 points and
added 6 rebounds and 3 assists.
Burlingame rolls past Crest
BURLINGAME It was a very
rough night last Tuesday for
the Crest Lancers as they
hit the road and traveled to
Burlingame and suffered a
62-26 defeat.
Crest fell behind by double
digits early and never recovered.
Burlingame saw themselves
on top 21-7 after the first period
and stretched their lead out to
43-28 at intermission as they
doubled up Crest 22-11 in the
second quarter.
It was much of the same
following
intermission.
Burlingame didn't relinquish
any of their momentum by outpacing Crest 17-6 in the third
quarter and taking a commanding 60-34 lead heading into the
fourth quarter.
The pace slowed significant-
ly in the fourth as both teams
had reserves in and a running
clock. Each team mustered just
2 points over the final 8 minutes of play.
Keaton Davis led the Lancers
with 9 points and was second
on the team with 4 rebounds.
Ethan Prasko led the
Lancers with 6 rebounds but
scored just 2 points, both coming from the free throw line.
Ethan Godderz was second
on the team with 7 points.
For the game, Crest connected on just 2-10 from the threepoint line and 7 of 20 (35%)
from the field. Burlingame
connected on over half their
field goals in the game, going
15-29.
The most lopsided stat was a
19-3 advantage by Burlingame
in the turnover margin.

ing $50,000 a year do not mean
$50,000 a year jobs. A company
where an executive makes $1
million and 39 employees make
$25,000 averages around $50,000
a year per job payroll.
How long does it take to get
to 4,000 jobs?
There are enough questions
to give us no way of understanding what transformative means or entails. We just
have a request to have faith. In
our eyes, from the state with
its failed STAR Bond incentive
system, that is a bridge too
far. As a newspaper, we find it
difficult to trust any numbers
thrown out in such a scenario.
The two people providing numbers of the benefitsthe company or politicians in favor
have a direct incentive to make
them look as rosy as possible.
With the incredibly sparse
amount of information about
this factory, we have a hard
time seeing any return on it to
regular Kansans or to Harvey
County. Something tells us
were not in the running down
here. Its not our local legislators pushing for the secret
expenditures, for instance.
The entire issue highlights the
damaging role that non-disclosure agreements play in public
discourse. Theyre becoming

level. Economic development is
hard, but NDAs provide elected officials an excuse in some
cases to not provide information. And when the public must
have no idea whats going on
to get a factory built, perhaps
the factory isnt the best for the
community or for the public.
Who knows? If we knew what
the super-secret factory was,
perhaps wed support it. But we
dont. And its their problem
they keep it secret, not ours.
Weve always been loudly in
favor of growth or jobs. Were
making the point that this represents an opportunity cost.
We think we could simply do
better by investing this money
into local Kansas businesses.
We think that $1.3 billion dedicated to growing small businesses in Kansas, by providing
increased low-interest capital,
incubators and training, could
create more than 4,000 jobs and
benefit much more of the state
by supporting local companies.
This $1.3 billion will help some
dude build another spaceship
or a doomsday bunker or whatever the people who get these
kinds of incentives are doing
nowadays.

When I Grow Up
By Joshua Yoder
4th Grade, Home School
Mrs. Yoder
First Place
Ill make a shed of solid wood,
Just as well as others could.
Ill work on fair days only
But not when it rains on me.
I want to be a carpenter,
And not a man of fur.
For everyone a shed Ill make
For everyone I will not bake.
When Im done making a
shed,
Maybe Ill see a bird in red.
When I get home
Maybe I will go out and roam.
The Stomach is Where They Lay
I always want to be kind,
And always have a thoughtful
mind.
I wont be here very long,
But while Im here Ill sing a
song.
The Creepy Cabin
By Lawson Lowe
6th Grade, Central Heights
Ms. Dunn
First Place
Knox, I dont
think this is a
good idea! said
Lawson. Come
on, its just an
old cabin! said
Knox. Lawsons
right, this is a little creepy said
Ethan. The three friends had
been walking for about 1 hour
and it was midnight when they
finally came across the cabin.
Creeeeck! the door creaked
when Knox opened the door.
Flashlights on said Lawson.
Whoa, Ethan said, yep weve
seen it now lets go home before
it starts to rain its supposed to
rain you know said Lawson.
Come on lets look around
said Knox. Hey Lawson you
know bones what type of bone is
this? said Ethan. That is a . .
. . .oh no, no, no! said Lawson.
What is it Lawson? said Knox.
Its a humans Lawson said.
We need to go now and tell the
police! said Ethan. Yeah, we
could be on tv! said Knox. We
arent going anywhere said
Lawson, as he pointed out the
old window a horde of zombies
were waiting for them.
We should not have ever
come here! Said Knox. Calm
down, Knox pull it together Lawson said while shaking Knox violently. Hey look
here! Ethan said there were
3 cross bows and arrows in
a box. looks like we found a
way out of here said Lawson.
Have any of us even shot one
of these? said Knox. Yeah, I
shoot these all the time when
I go bow hunting with my dad!
said Lawson. Where do we
aim for? Said Ethan The head,
duh! said Knox. Hey watch it!
said Lawson. The last thing we
need is to turn on each other!
Lawsons right, we need to be
kind to each other! on the other
hand how are we going to use
these crossbows when we cant
even get a shot at the zombies?
said Ethan. Well go to the roof
and pick them off one by one
said Lawson.
Splat! an arrow hits a
zombie. Straight through the
head! said Lawson. We need
to get out of here! said Ethan.
Right said Lawson. Crunch!
What was that? said Ethan.
It came from over there! said
Knox. What is that? It was a
creature about 7 feet tall. It had
antlers and looked like a bear
and was eating zombies! Its
going to save us! said Jayci.
NO said Lawson. What?
said Knox. If it likes zombie
flesh it likes human flesh too.
Arrows are not going to kill
that thing! said Knox. Lets
go back inside, said Lawson.
Agreed, said Knox and Ethan.
I think that was a skinwalker said Lawson. Whats that?
said Knox. A really bad thing
to get in a fight with. They go
downstairs and something is
waiting for them.
You shouldnt have come
here. Said the kid in the chair.
Um . . . who are you and how
did you get in here, there are
zombies outside? said Lawson.
Ive been here for 70 years
waiting for someone to kill the
skinwalker that killed me!
Jumping out of his chair floating while screaming the ghost
sped as Lawson, Knox and Jayci
SSSSRRRRRRAAAAAA said
the ghost. Duck! said Lawson.
Duck where? said Knox.
SPLAT! The ghost ran through
Knox and Knox screamed like a
girl EEEEEK! Knox fell over.
Lawson went to help him up
but instead he fell over laughing HAHAHAHA! Lawson
and Ethan laughed. Knox sat up
covered in slime and his hair
looked like Albert Einstein.
What? said Knox. Look at
yourself! Lawson said while
pulling a mirror out of his pocket crap! said Knox. Heres a
comb . . . and you can keep it
said Lawson We need to getCRASH! Ethan got interrupted
by a window breaking. What
broke that? said Ethan. Lawson
walked over to the window to
look out to see what broke the
window when RAOOOR! The
skinwalker that was eating zombies was staring in the window,
ramming itself into the side of
the house Aaaa! Lawson fell
back onto the floor Crash!
Lawson fell through the floor
revealing a pair of stairs OuchEach-Ock! BAMM! Lawson
finally reached the bottom of
the stairs Crack! The wall
was starting to break! Comeon! Ethan said more urgently. Yeah! said Knox running
down the stairs.
Making it to the bottom of
the stairs Ethan and Knox found
Lawson looking like a pretzel.
Lawson had 1 foot over his head
and upside down look at the
purple lamas! said Lawson.
Come on help him! said Ethan.
The two friends helped Lawson
by untangling him and putting
stitches and bandages on his
cuts, luckily Lawson brought his
med-kit. Once they were done
patching him up they decided to
check out what was down there.
It was so dark they couldnt see
their hands in front of their faces
so they got out their flashlights.
Looks like its a mine shaft!
said Lawson. I wonder where it
leads! Ethan said, I dont want
to find out! said Knox. Hey,
look a lantern! said Lawson,
Fwoosh! Lawson lit the lantern on fire. Now we can save
our phone battery for calling for
help! Hey do you hear that?
said Lawson. Swoosh sounds
like a river! But were in a
cave!? yeah but there are cave
streams like one my family goes
to in Colorado, said Lawson.
If theres running water that
means that the zombies and the
skinwalker can get in here!
Knox said. But that also means
theres a way out of here! said
Knox. Right E what wheres
Ethan? GUYS HELPPPP!
Ethan screamed. Oh no, said
Knox. Lawson and Knox ran
for what felt like hours when
they finally made it there Ethan
was hanging from the ceiling
of what looked like a cave. The
skinwalker had just jumped
in a pool of water not knowing
where it went Knox and Lawson
ran into the cave Lawson pulled
out his fathers pocket knife
and cut Ethan down. Thank
goodness you saved me guys!
Ok thanks but lets go! With
the three friends reunited they
ran to the stream and on the
way they found a rowboat in a
shack next to the stream they
hopped in but as soon as they
all were in there the skinwalker
ran out of the caves and there
was two more with it. Theres
two more!?! yelled Lawson.
Row, row, row! They rowed
as fast as they could. As soon
as they got in the stream the
skinwalker dove in and the current picked up and they stopped
rowing. They got out the crossbows and were ready for the
skinwalkers. SPLASH! a skinwalker jumped out of the water
and all three friends shot their
crossbows splat splat splat!
one hit it in the leg, one in the
chest and one in the head. The
giant creature screamed a blood
curdling scream and fell in the
stream dead. Well thats one
down two to go. Said Lawson.
Just as he said that one jumped
up, grabbed Lawson and pulled
him under! Under the surface
Lawson kicked and punched the
monster then he pulled out his
pocket knife and slashed its eye!
The skinwalker let go of Lawson
and swam to the surface! UGH!
Lawson gasped for air What
the?! Ethan said. Lawson!
The friends pulled Lawson out
of the stream and laid him down.
The beast had sliced open his
side he was bleeding badly. We
need to get you to a hospital!
Ethan call 911! OK! Ethan
called 911 while Knox tried to
patch Lawson up with Knoxs
sweatshirt. Hey Lawson, we got
another one. g-good Lawson
mumbled. When they made it
out of the cave a helicopter flew
above them a spotlight shone
on them and a voice said were
sending down a ladder just then
a ladder fell from the heli and
Knox said Ill go up and tell
them Lawsons hurt. Just then
the last skinwalker jumped up
and hit the helicopter and it was
spinning out of control! Once
it finally hit the ground Knox
went to check out the crash site.
When Knox made it there crossbow in hand the helicopter was
totaled same as the pilots. But
Knox was able to salvage the
medical supplies but then he
saw the skinwalker. The blade
of the helicopter had cut off its
head and now lay lifeless on the
ground. They were safe!
Knox took back the medical
supplies to the row boat, patched
Lawson up again and dragged
him to the helicopter. This is
our camp until somebody finds
us, Knox said. Days turned
into weeks and weeks turned
into months. They had made the
crash site their base of operations every day Knox or Ethan
went out into the woods and
they would mark where they
went with part of the helicopter but one day Knox found a
house…
Knox had a choice to face
the dangers or go back to camp.
Lawson was still in a coma and
wouldnt wake up. What should
I do? he thought.

One day in
a deep forest
Liam
Whitlock and
his poor family
were walking
down a gravel
path. They had been walking for hours. The small
cottage they used to have
cost too much and they were
evicted from the cottage for
not being able to pay rent,
but money was scarce and
it was hard to get a good
paying job. So they walked
away from their small town
in search of a better life.
Soon they decided to stop
and rest on the side of the
gravel for the night. Were
out of food! his son complained his son always had
something to complain
about but this time it was
true. They had been out of
food for awhile but he had
eaten the last of it before
they were evicted. They had
barely eaten anything ever
since they started their journey. I will fetch us something to eat. Im sure I could
find something down this
path, Liam said. His wife
nodded and told him stay
safe dear! as he started to
walk away onto the gravel
path.
Liam walked for exactly
10 minutes and 30 seconds,
he was counting the seconds
as he walked along the path.
He had found nothing at all.
Not even a single berry near
the path. Liam snapped to
focus as he heard the wailing of another person from
down the path. Liam picked
up his pace to see what was
the matter. A frail old lady
who appeared to have fallen while walking and was
unable to get up off the
ground. Liam rushed over
as fast as he could to help
the poor old lady. Oh please
help dear sir!, she pleaded.
Ive been stuck here trying
to get up for so long I no
longer have any energy! If
you help me I will repay you
generously. Liam reached
for her hand and helped her
up slowly. Thank you kind
sir! Come to this same spot
tomorrow and I will give
you a nice hot meal she
said sweetly. Liam reluctantly trusted her, she was
an old lady, how could she
do anything wrong, ever!
Liam walked home empty
handed. When he returned
his wife looked at him expectantly so he told them we
were offered a nice meal by
a sweet old lady I had helped
on the path, other than that
I have no food, everybody
sighed. That night the family slept on an empty stomach. In the morning the
whole family was miserable
after sleeping on the forest
floor all night. Liam got up
quickly and told his family
this kind lady offered us a
meal and I will not refuse it,
stay here and be hungry if
you want. Those were the
last words anybody said or
heard the family was silent.
Everybody in the family
decided to come and eat
with Liam at the old ladys
home.
The family walked down
the gravel path until Liam
recognized where the lady
had fallen down. Liam knew
the spot like the back of his
hand for some odd reason.
They all sat on the side of the
path and waited patiently
for the lady to appear. They
waited for what seemed
like hours. Eventually the
lady appeared dining on the
other side of the path. Oh
hello my fine fellow! What a
lovely family you have! Will
they be with us tonight?
the old lady asked politely.
Liam nodded, wonderful!
I have just enough room
for all of you! the old lady
exclaimed, she then led
Liam and his family deep
into the woods.
Soon enough a small
cottage appeared in the
distance. It was quite overgrown with vines and all
sorts of marvelous plants.
Liams wife glanced at him
uneasily but he ignored her
rude suggestion that the
old lady was suspicious. As
they approached the door
to the overgrown cottage
the old lady stopped and
reached into a small satchel
she had been carrying and
pulled out a ring with many
gorgeous keys hung from.
They made a brilliant jingle
sound when she had pulled
them out, the lady searched
through the keys until she
found a small copper key
with a gorgeous design on
it. She slid the key into the
doorknob and turned it, the
door flung open to reveal a
small inside with a kitchen,
table and couch. Oh dear,
Ive forgotten my handkerchief in the backyard. Could
you get it my dear? the old
lady asked Liam quietly of
course! Liam responded.
Liam walked to the back
of the cottage without question. He searched nearby
stumps and any surfaces
other than the forest floor
of course. Who would randomly forget their handkerchief on the forest floor? He
searched for quite a long
time until he went up to a
tall oak tree and looked at
his feet. There it was, the
handkerchief just carelessly thrown onto the ground.
Liam crouched down and
picked up the handkerchief. He dusted it off with
his hand and realized something. Why would an old
lady have her handkerchief
carelessly thrown on the
ground. Something was off.
Then it happened.
A scream cut through the
silent air, and it came from
the cottage. Liam rushed to
the front door of the cottage
and flung it open. What?
There was nothing wrong
except for one thing, where
was his wife and son? Did
you find it? the old lady
asked oh . . . uh yeah
Liam mumbled uneasily.
He handed her the handkerchief across the counter and
noticed a red substance on
her arm while she grabbed
it. Was it the blood of his
missing wife and son? The
old lady noticed him staring
and told him cooly, sorry,
the chicken was bloody
when I cut it open. She
stared at him menacingly as
if she was saying dont ask
anymore questions and so
Liam didnt; he stayed silent
until a small ding went off.
Soon enough a wonderful
meal was put in front of him.
Alright eat up, this is the
best quality chicken around
here. This did not have the
same texture as chicken at
all. But the man had been
walking all day and was so
hungry. He couldnt just
turn down a hot meal like
this.
And so the man gobbled
down the meal without
further questioning. The
frail old lady smiled at him
strangely. Then she said it,
exactly what he feared.
My dear boy, what you
just ate. Was your poor wife
and son. Didnt your mother
tell you not to trust strangers? Liam was stunned. He
couldnt speak, no she must
be lying! You ignored your
wife, she gave you many signals that she didnt think
this was safe. But your
nice warm meal was more
important than your family he had told his family
it was okay to go. This was
his fault they were dead.
Now you will have a similar fate.
Liam Whitlock was never
heard from again, but he
was quite a popular dish in a
nearby small village which
was having him as the main
course of chicken.

The Unknown Hero
By Ashton Rouse
4th Grade, GES
Mrs. Owenby
Second Place
An unknown and mysterious hero roams the
streets of Aerial City late
at night. To some people
the unknown hero is a very
kind man that doesnt just
flaunt his strength but is
compassionate and wanting
to help his city, others arent
quite sure what he is. While
his intelligence surpasses
all humans, his strengths &
Story
supernatural
power remain
undefeated.
It always
seems nice to
have a hero
protecting the
city from crime and vandalism. Crime rates have
dropped dramatically, and
the entire city became desolate of crime. With Aerial
City being safe and all criminals afraid to ever come
back, the unknown hero
chose to move some place
that is notorious for its high
crime rates.
The unknown hero traveled to Chicago. There he
would help all the gaunt
homeless people and stop
the large amounts of crime.
Each time the hero stopped
a criminal, he would transfer them to a local jail where
they can be held accountable for their actions. When
the unknown hero is finished with Chicago, he will
continue to travel from city
to city until all the world is
safe and serene. That is the
true meaning of heroism.
Ill see what I can
do Mama said
jokingly with a
wink. Biscuits,
biscuits!
cheered George,
my little brother
and Margarets twin. He was
a little taller than her with the
same red hair and freckles.
Alright time for school said
Mama. Catherine? Where are
my books? said Joseph, my
twelve year old brother, he was
pale and small and always covered in dirt. I dont know said
Catherine, we were the closest that two people could be,
we told each other everything
and spent all our time at home
together (I spent the rest of
the time with my friends). She
was a little taller then me with
long brown hair. I saw them
in the girls room said Lucy,
she was nine years old, not that
tall with light brown hair and
she was very unfocused and
scatter-brained. Us girls Lu I
said. School Mama reminded
us. Were going, cmon guys
Catherine said as she ushered
us out the door.
That day my class got let out
early, so I asked someone to tell
my siblings and headed home.
When I walked in Mama was
crying softly with her head in
her arms. I knew I should say
something, try to help, but I
didnt know what to say I knew
if I tried to help her I wouldnt
be able to keep together so I
quietly slid by and went to the
girls room to push down my
guilt and do my homework.
The next morning Mama
seemed like a completely different person. She woke us all
up one by one. First Margaret
then the rest of us girls then
ever so quietly George and
Joseph and then with all of us
at the foot of the bed we all said
Happy Birthday!!! and Ed fell
right on the floor. At break-
fast Mama laughed and joked
until we had to go to school.
This time coming home it was
just me and (Jo and Lu had
to stay and study and Ed and
Catherine were staying with
them). When we got home the
twins both said they were tired
and went to take naps. I went to
find Mama and tell her we were
home. I found her in the main
room crying again this time
she saw me. Oh, hi welcome
home Rosie she said wiping
away her tears. I walked over
and sat down leaning against
her, tears came and I didnt
hold them back, I said I know
its not okay and Im not going
to try to tell it is. We sat there
for a long moment and simply cried. We cried until we
couldnt anymore. When finally everyone else came home.
Wh-whats wrong? Joseph
said nervously. Shhh Mama
said softly signaling everyone
to join the hug. The twins had
woken up and come out now.
Rose is right, everythings not
okay, Mama said. Mama its .
. . Ed started but I cut him off.
Things may not be completely okay, but we can take it a
little bit at a time and you can
be sad because, well were all
gonna be worried, but theyre
still alive and well and thats
all that matters.
Well Ed got drafted and hes
fighting bravely for our country, right alongside Papa and
Will. Of course we miss him
but like I said that theyre okay
is all that matters. It may not
necessarily be a happy ending
yet but I think soon it will be
okay again.

Hello my name is Rose

Falls and this is my experience

Mail, Mama called. I hurried to change into my day
dress, hearing the thunder of
feet as all my many siblings
raced to see the days mail (I
was one of eight). When I finally came into the kitchen everyone was giddy with excitement;
we were expecting a letter from
Papa and William. Papa and
William had been fighting in
the great war, but they would
send a letter every week without fail. Hmm, that doesnt
look like Papas handwriting
Mama said suspiciously. Read
it, read it, read it my littlest
sister Margaret said excitedly. She was six and small
with curly red hair. Alright,
alright, ummm. . . . aww it
says your brother wanted to
write the letter this time. Oh
thats nice Mama said. What
is it Mama? asked Edward, my
second oldest brother. He was
seventeen, tall and thin (we all
were, as we didnt eat much)
with dark brown hair. They
want to wish you a happy early
birthday! Mama said with fake
enthusiasm. I understand why,
within thirty days of turning
eighteen he would have to
sign up for the draft. I knew
mama couldnt bear the possibility of losing Ed along with
the possibility of losing Papa
and Will. But I also knew she
was trying not to let it show
so I kept my mouth shut. Well
have to have a little celebration
tomorrow, what would you like
for breakfast sweetie? Mom
asked Ed. Are biscuits okay?

CREATIVE KIDS
By Allyssa Reed
5th Grade, Central Heights
Mrs. Riemer
Second Place
Michael was an orphan
at Summers home for
unwanted children, and
his mother and father left
him there when he was
four, they werent very well
at the time. Michael didnt
really remember his parents but he knew they still
loved him. Michael hoped
that they would come pick
him up someday. Summers
home for unwanted children
wasnt really the most ideal
place for a child but it was
alright, besides the terrible
dust and leaky ceilings and
mold that made the children
there sick. Michael was still
appreciative though.
That morning Michael
woke up with a terribly sore
throat, so as the headmistress came around poking
everyone with her cane to
get up, get dressed and do
their chores Michael came
up to her and asked may
I please stay in today I feel
very unwell he said.
No, I have a surprise for
you today, said the headmistress.
What is it? said Michael.
Youll have to wait and
see Michael, said the headmistress.
30 minutes later Michael
found out that the headmistress got him an appointment
with her step sister and her
husband to see if theyd like
to adopt him. Michael was
very excited to meet them
but he didnt know that one
of them was the headmistresss step sister. Michael
then went to the meeting
table to meet them. As he
sat down in the old crooked chair he found out that
their names were Mr. and
Mrs. Tartal, Mr. Tartal asked
Michael what his favorite
food was, but Michael didnt
know any other foods than
the mush that they served
there.
I like the sort of orange
pink stuff that they serve on
Tuesday, said Michael.
Mr. Tartal laughed, but
Mrs. Tartal didnt think it
was too funny.
Mr. Tartal and Mrs. Tartal
kept on asking Michael more
questions, like what his
favorite color and animal
were. Michael was having
a great time, but he wasnt
sure that Mr. and Mrs. Tartal
would want to adopt him
after about half an hour later
the headmistress came in
and asked to see Mr. and Mrs.
Tartal in her office. Michael
was nervous but excited,
about fifteen minutes later
Mr. and Mrs. Tartal came out
of the headmistresses office
with a big smile on their
faces. Michael knew that he
might have a chance to be
adopted. When Mr. and Mrs.
Tartal came out and asked
Michael would you like to
be our new son? Mr. and
Mrs.Tartal sat as they waited
2×5
1-stop
Lori Chupp 6th Grade Central Plains Ms. Miller
for a response.
Of course, absolutely Id love to shouted
Michael with a big grin on
his face.
Mr. and Mrs. Tartal both
smiled as they went back to
the headmistresses office to
fill out some paperwork, in
the meantime Michael could
hardly wait. He was so excited, he was practically bouncing off the walls as he packed
his suitcase. A while later
Mr. and Mrs. Tartal came
into the playroom side of the
orphanage to pick Micheal
up. As Michael and his new
parents came outside to
bring him home everything
changed what he knew as
his sweet new loving parents
were no more, once they had
gotten outside the tone of
Michaels new parents went
from a sweet loving tone into
a voice so hard and it was
almost like they were yelling at him as if he had done
something horrible. What
Michael had thought had
become a dream come true
had actually turned out to
be a horrible never ending
nightmare.
Michael had felt a sharp
pain in his stomach and his
throat began to choke up
like he hadnt had water in
days. Michael felt scared like
he did when his parents left
him outside the orphanage.
As Michaels new parents
drove him to his new home
they gave him a pen and a
tiny notebook to write down
a ginormous list of chores for
him to do once he got to his
new home. When Michael
finally got to his new home
his new parents showed him
his new room. He had a tiny
room, probably five by six
feet. He had a small mattress
on the floor with a bookshelf
and table lamp right beside
it. Then his chores began as
his new parents started yelling orders at him do the
dishes, clear the table, sweep
the floor, mop it too, make
us lunch, vacuum the couch,
make our bed, wash the
truck, rake the leaves, fix the
deck, wipe down the walls,
dust! Mr. Tartal yelled.
But what about my
lunch? Michael said quietly.
Oh youll get your lunch
after youve finished all your
chores you needy brat said
Mrs. Tartal.
How long will my chores
take? said Michael.
Why dont you start and
find out? said Mr. Tartal.
As Michael started doing
his chores one by one he had
finally finished except one
make lunch but the problem
was his new parents didnt
have much food and he was
scared to ask what theyd
like or where did they keep
their food but Michael really
didnt want to know what
theyd do to him for he had
heard many stories from the
other foster children about
what horrible things their
parents did to them. Michael
didnt really have a choice
because the punishment would most likely
be worse for not doing
a chore than asking about
one, Michael went to the living room to ask his new parents what they would like for
lunch. Before Michael could
even say a word Mr. Tartal
said Im too busy to talk to a
disgrace like you Mr. Tartal
shouted. Michael went back
to the pantry to find some
food to make his new parents for lunch, he found two
old cans of spaghettios to
heat up then he found some
bowls and silverware too.
As Michael walked back to
the living room to give his
new parents their food he
had spilled some on the floor
then Mrs. Tartal walked by
and shouted to her husband
to come quickly, Michael
knew he was going to be in
big trouble. As Mr. Tartal
came in and saw the stain on
the floor he left, then a minute later he came back and
he said Michael come over
here by the table real quick
Mr. Tartal said.
Michael walked over and
said yes sir.
Can you please put your
hand on the table? said Mr.
Tartal.
Yes, said Michael.
Then Mr. Tartal reached
into his back pocket and
grabbed a hammer then
he slowly put the hammer
over Michaels hand and
bam! Mr. Tartal repeatedly hit Michaels hand with
the hammer and Michael
screeched and cried in pain
the Mr. Tartal said thatll
teach you not to stain my
floor Mr. Tartal yelled as
he kicked over the bowls of
spaghettios and told Michael
to clean his mess up.
As weeks had turned into
months and months turned
into years Michael had finally gotten his first phone
with the pocket money he
had saved from helping his
neighbors. Michael was fourteen and once he had gotten
his phone and phone card he
called the orphanage and he
asked if he could get picked
up the orphanage knew
that the Tartals werent the
best with the children and
agreed to pick him up at five
oclock that day Michael
knew that his foster parents
wouldnt be home till tomorrow and said ok and thanks.
As Michael packed his few
things and headed outside
to wait, the orphanage truck
finally came by to pick him
up. Michael knew that this
was his chance to finally
escape that horrid place.
Michael finally got back to
the orphanage and he was so
very excited and the next day
the headmistress got him
another appointment to be
adopted and this time it was
actually a nice couple their
names were Mr. and Mrs.

Third Place
Once there was a man named
David. One day he said I am
going hunting. He got his gun
and went to the woods he found
a stump and sat down and waited then there came a big elk.
Oh how he wanted to shoot the
elk. Very slowly he brought his
gun to his shoulder, he took
aim and fired, he missed and he
was very mad. He kicked a tree
and shouted as
loud as he could
and went home
and had supper
and went to
bed.
The
next
morning
he
went to his corn field and found
his corn was torn up by the
roots. He went in and got his
gun and went to the woods. He
walked down to the creek he
got a drink stood up and looked
around. He saw a bush move
so he grabbed his gun and shot
at the bush. Well at that time a
wild pig rushed out. Well David
was so afraid he jumped very
high. He came down on the
pigs back! The pig was very
mad. The pig started running
very fast and kicking. David
held on to the pigs ears. The
pig ran circles, the pig started
running to the river. David was
losing grip on the pigs ears.
The pig bucked hard and put
David sailing through the air.
David landed in the river and
got very wet.

The Waffle Man
By Liz Roberts
5th Grade, GES
Mrs. Modlin
Third Place
On a bright and sunny
morning a man named
David woke up ready for
breakfast. He headed down
to the kitchen and got the
waffling iron out. He started
putting together a delicious
waffle! While the waffle was
cooking, he went upstairs
to get ready for the day.
But when he left, the waffling iron started to move!
It then popped open. The
waffle looked pretty normal
but then it blinked. It was
alive! The waffle then sat up
almost like Frankenstein
arising and it was suddenly attracted to the bottle
of syrup! He then started
walking on the counter
while drooling with glee,
and falling on his face. This
is because it was hard to
walk as a waffle. The waffle had then reached the
syrup, so he yanked the
bottle open and started
pouring it all over himself!
But after a while he noticed
he was stuck! Then he could
hear footsteps coming from
the stairs. The man was
coming! The waffle didnt
know what to do so he just
stopped and stood in a random pose, but that did nothing. David saw the waffle
and his jaw dropped to the
floor! The waffle knew it
was useless to just stand
there, so he tried to move.
As he moved he noticed
there was a string connected to the ceiling fan above
him, so he grabbed onto it
and started to climb. David

noticed
this
and
he knew
he had to
do something with
this waffle
creature!
David went up to the waffle
creature and tried to grab
it, but the waffle swung
around dodging the mans
grasping hands. The waffle then let go of the string
and jumped off onto a soft
chair. David and the waffle
ran around the house for
hours until they were both
exhausted. Finally, they
sat down together to catch
their breath, but then they
looked at each other and
smiled and started to laugh.
And that is how a waffle
and a man named David
became best friends.
Peach was just a little foal,
dreaming about roaming the
Earth free. But every day
more and more of her herd
kept getting wrangled up
and roped by the humans.
One day, her herd went to
find a stream to drink from,
the humans came to take
more wild horses. Peachs
parents told her to run and
hide. She did as they said
and ran, but she saw them
take her parents away. Then
the humans left. When all
the horses were sure that
the humans were gone, the
survivors came out of hiding
except for Peach. Peach hid
for a long time, long enough
that the other survivors
thought that the humans
took her.
Soon it became night and
it started to rain. Peach realized that she was all alone.
She then got scared and
ran into the night and rain.
She ran and ran trying to
find her herd and maybe
even a new herd. But she
got lost, tired, and cold on
her search and passed out.
The next day, humans found
her and brought her to their
town. When they got there,
they tired to wake her up.
Finally, she woke up, and
they took her to the horse
auction.

acr
When it was her time to
get sold, a girl named Breka
wanted to buy Peach. She
told her father to buy the
horse. At the end of the sale,
Breka got Peach. The family
took Peach home and put
her in a fancy horse stable.
It soon became night when
Peach had a dream. She was
running in the wild, finally
free and with a herd. When
Peach woke up she knew
Breka was her key to getting
what she wanted. But she
had to let Breka take the
reins sometimes.
After a little while, the
familys horse trainers came
to train Peach. Peach tried to
do what they told her to do,
but it was hard for her. Then
after six weeks Peach was
trained. Breka
and
Peach
became inseparable and did
a few rodeos.
They even won
some. Peach
was happy she had Breka.
The humans even stopped
wrangling up the wild horses. Breka got onto Peach one
day after school and rode
her to the valley where she
was born. They rode for a
long time and then Breka
set Peach free. Free to live
her own life. It was a sad
and happy moment for both
of them. After one goodbye
pat from Breka, Peach left
and found a herd to live a
long and happy life with.

Going Camping
By Andrew Wuertz
4th Grade, Central Heights
Mrs. Cutburth
Honorable Mention
This story is going to be very
confusing in my opinion. The
story is kind of magical. All of
these paragraphs are going to
be fun.
One night two friends were
going camping. When they set
up the tent they found a note.
The note said Wake up at midnight and go in the portal.
The friends got confused
but went to bed anyway. One
of the two friends woke up at
11:58 P.M. Then she woke up
the other friend at 12:00 A.M.
and they saw the portal!! When
they saw it they walked into it.
Inside they saw a huge iceland.
It got cold, so they saw a cave
and walked into it. When they
got in they saw a caveman.
The caveman came running
to them and said Help my village is dying!! The friends said
they would help. The caveman
said that a mountain lion has
been killing the village and
nobody is awake to stop it. The
friends the next night stayed up
and waited for it to come. When
it came the friends scared it off.
The next day the friends hunted it down and killed it.
The next few days they
learned how to hunt really well
and make fires. When they
went to bed they heard a shrill
scream. The scream came from
a girl that was afraid of the
dark. So the friends helped
her get over her fear. The next
night they said they were going
back and they did.
The friends got to learn how
to do a lot of things. They also
got to find a portal thats cool.
They also had a lot of fun with
the cavemen.

Arrow
By Mackenzie Dilley
4th Grade, Westphalia
Mrs. Madden
Honorable Mention
Once upon a time a horse
named Arrow won the horse
race. But two weeks later he
felt weak and lost. He felt so
ashamed. He decided it was best
to leave because he thought
he was a disgrace to his family because they were so hard
on him. The jockey was sad,
Arrow was his favorite horse
of all time! So he decided to go
looking for him and what he
found was not good. He found
Arrow tangled in barbed wire.
He had to call the police to help.
It took an hour! They found
very deep cuts and he was
bleeding really bad. Luckily
he was okay. It was very cold
that night so he needed a really
warm stall. Everyone went to
sleep in the morning, he was a
lot better. And they took it easy
on racing. The end.

My First Pet
By Kora Gaines
5th Grade, GES
Mrs. Modlin
Honorable Mention
My brother and I always wanted a puppy. My mom saw a puppy
that someone was giving away. It
was so cute and it was the one
we always wanted! It was black
with orange paws and chest. It
was adorable! About 2 days later,
my mom and my dad said that
they had a huge surprise for us.
They said, Its something you
and your brother always wanted
and you both have been wanting it forever! They also said,
Its a big responsibility, too.
At that point, I was really excited. I could see my brother was
excited too, by looking at his
face. My dad disappeared into
their bedroom to get our gift. He
came out with the gift and I could
not believe my eyes! Was this a
dream? It was a puppy! It was the
exact same one my mom showed
us about two days ago! I honestly had no idea how to react.
I was so excited to finally have
a pet that I was speechless! My
dad handed me the puppy and I
almost started crying. I handed
the puppy to my brother since
it looked like he wanted to hold
it. Then I asked my parents, Is
the puppy a girl or a boy? They
said that it was a girl! I was even
more excited because I wanted it
to be a girl. If it would have been
a boy, that would have been okay
too because I always just wanted a puppy. My brother kind of
looked disappointed because he
wanted a boy puppy, but he was
still just happy we finally got a
puppy. We named her Sadi! We
went to the pet store to get Sadi
some stuff. Luckily, the pet store
was in town so we didnt have to
go far. When we got there, I ran
inside. The first thing I saw was
this fluffy pink round dog bed. It
was so fluffy and soft! I asked my

you could put your dogs name

Shepard was just a normal
dog, well until today. Cause
today, the evil cat scientist made
some purple goo and it turned
anything mutant. So Shepard
was scared of that grumpy old
cat, but that cat and him used
to be very good friends. So lets
talk about that first. One day
Shepard and Seymour (the cat)
were just walking down the trail
from school. It was a normal
sunny day and children were at
the park laughing and playing.
They saw a car show up, and
the car took Seymour! Shepard
panicked and panicked! After
a week of panicking, his doorbell rang, he opened the door
and Seymour never answered.
A few minutes later after standing there, Seymour caught

and Shepards friendship ended
there. Seymours pet mouse
(yeah, hes weird), drank the goo.
After drinking the goo, the rat
charged at Shepard and punched
him right in the middle of the
face. Thankfully, Shepard quickly recovered because of the goo.
He got up and grasped the rat
and slammed him to the wall a
couple of times. The rat fainted
and fell on the ground. NO!
yelled Seymour. Shepard then
took out the two guards driving
the car. Then, the hardest decision Shepard would ever make
had to happen. Shepard had to
throw Seymour off the moving
van.Ten years later Back in
Shepards original dimension,
Shepard was at home watching
tv. When he turned on the news
and saw the breaking news:
Seymour Buccunshur spotted

The Lost Boy
By Andrew Donovan
5th Grade, GES
Mrs. Modlin
Honorable Mention
There once was a boy named
Johnny. One day Johnny was
using his imagination while
playing football. Then he heard
a CRACK! The first two words
that went to his mind were, Be
Brave. So, he went to check
out the noise. Suddenly, he got
pulled behind a pile of leaves as
soon as his mom came outside to
say Johnny, its dinner time It
was so quiet that she only heard
a leaf hit the ground.
The next day.
Rebecca, (Johnnys mom)
called a search team to come help
her find her son. She explained
that he was wearing black sweatpants and blue t-shirt when she
last saw him. They searched for
half an hour and then they heard
a scream. Ahhh! the scream
was so loud a flock of birds flew
out of a tree. Johnny then came
soaring out of the hole and landed face first on the ground. He
started to walk out into his yard,
but everybody rushed over to
him. Johnny quickly began to
explain what had happened. I
heard a loud CRACK like a twig
broke, so I went to check it out.
Thats when I got sucked into
that hole! You will never believe
what pulled me into it. It was
like a goblin! The goblin took me
to his room where it had a ping
pong table, a 50 inch TV, and a
pool table! I asked who are you?
And he replied, I am a goblin
and I was protecting you from
your mom. She is really a witch
and not a kind mom! Everybody
inhaled because they were so
scared! She put poison in your
dinner, so I pulled you into that
hole until today so you didnt eat
it! And just like that, Johnnys
life the way he knew it was over.
Johnny watched his mom get put
into a pair of handcuffs that disabled her powers so she couldnt
use them. That was the last time
Johnny saw his mother.

The Surgery

Honorable Mention
Hi, my name is Mina. My
life is almost perfect but the
thing is I am blind. I come from
Mississippi. My mom is Lori and
my dad is Abel. I have a brother
named Leo and a sister named
Kora. You may be wondering
how I get around. I have a person
to help me out. I started earning
money so I can get an eye surgery. So I can see.
Finally it was time I told my
family I loved them and said my
goodbyes and went to the hospital I was getting ready when
I was starting to get scared. I
was thinking stuff like what if
o=something goes wrong Or
what if I do not make it? I calmed
myself down and fell asleep for
the surgery.
After the surgery my family came and visited me often. I
finally got out of the hospital and
back to school. I was so happy
I could see, it was so beautiful.
But then something happened.
I passed out while I was in the
shower.
I woke up in the hospital not
knowing anything. I asked what
happened. The doctor told me
I passed out, he told me I had
cancer. I was shocked. I had no
idea I was really scared. I overworked myself and passed out
again. Then I was in a different
room. I asked if I could call my
mom and they said yes so I did.
She said she would call the family and come as fast as she could.
I was so scared I was thinking
stuff like what if I dont make
it? Or will I die? Where is the
cancer? Then they told me that I
will survive for a long time but it
will be painful.
Finally, my family arrived
and I told them what the doctor
said. They were so shocked. The
doctor said that it is just cancer
and I will lost my hair. I started
to shake as more news came.
Will I be able to come home? I
asked the doctor and he said it
might be better to stay here for a
week. I said okay but in the end I
survived cancer and was having
a normal life again.
