County property values to fall with oil prices
2016 property taxes
could take a hit from
recent oil price bust
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT After riding
the local tax benefits of high
oil prices the past couple of
years, Anderson County tax-
payers could see that benefit
come crashing down this year
much the same way oil and gas
prices have in recent months.
Most county residents saw
property tax relief the past couple of years because of higher oil and gas prices, which
increased values and the
tax bills of oil leases in the
county. Roughly translated, the
countys total property value
was higher mostly because oil
and gas producers were doing
well. When property values are
higher, the countys taxes are
spread out among a larger pool
and individual taxpayers feel
less of a pinch.
The countys higher property valuation allowed some government entities to lower taxes
in 2015. County commissioners
lowered taxes by 2.777 mills
despite an increase in the countys expenses, and USD 365 lowered the tax rate by 3.014 mills,
also despite higher expenses.
But the City of Garnett,
which does not have oil leases within its boundaries, had
lower property values and had
to increase taxes slightly.
Next year, county and school
board officials could be in nearly the same position as the city.
Oil and gas prices have fallen
as much as 60 percent in recent
months, which means the value
of local oil and gas leases likely
will fall as well when tax values
are assessed.
County assistant appraiser Steve Markham prepared
county commissioners for the
drop with a report earlier this
month. He said its still too
early to know exactly how the
falling prices will affect county
values, but said it very likely
will result in a decrease.
Its all driven by production. Either way, the effect is on
the negative side, Markham
said. Even if production is up,
prices are lower.
Many of the oil leases in
Anderson County are considered low producing leases

Garnett man takes issue
with carport restrictions
Citys zoning wont allow
Thacker to build carport, but
others have despite rules
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT When it came to building
a carport at his home, Geno Thacker of
Garnett tried to follow the citys rules.
Instead, hell need to change those
rules – at least in regard to his plans.
Thacker contacted zoning officials
at Garnett City Hall before constructing a metal carport at his home. His
plan seemed simple enough, and
he saw similar structures at homes
throughout the city.
But Thacker soon learned there are
two zoning regulations that would prohibit his plans.
The first requires all front yards to
have at least 25 feet from the front edge
of the structure to the road. If Thacker
built his carport as planned, it would
extend past the front of his house. That
extension would be less than 25 feet
from the road, which isnt allowed.
The city also doesnt allow someone
to build an auxiliary structure – like
metal carports or sheds – past the front
of a house. Someone who built a permanent structure like a garage could

Sales taxes reflect well on
county, city economies
County collects 5 percent
more in sales taxes; Garnett
rebounds after low months
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Recent sales tax collections
in Anderson County have been slightly
higher than last year, while Garnetts
sales tax collections rebounded after
two months of decline.
Sales tax collections as reported by
the Kansas Department of Revenue
in Topeka, are a good indicator of
economic activity because they show
if local businesses bring in more or
fewer retail sales compared to previous months. Locally, the largest collector of sales tax typically is new
and used car dealerships like Beckman
Motors, because they collect sales
tax on large purchases like cars and
trucks. In Anderson County, automotive sales alone make up about 20 percent of overall retail sales and sales tax
collections.
So far this fiscal year, Anderson
County is collecting about 5 percent
more in sales tax than last year. Thats
good news for county taxpayers,

Severe Weather Awareness Week approaches
Annual statewide tornado
drill set for 1:30 p.m. March 3;
prepare for bad weather now
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT If you hear tornado
sirens next Tuesday afternoon, dont
panic. Its only a test.
The annual statewide tornado safety drill is set for 1:30 p.m. Tuesday,
March 3. If severe weather is imminent, the test will be canceled.
The annual tornado siren test is
supposed to remind people of the dangers of tornadoes and other types
of severe weather. It is scheduled
to coincide with Severe Weather
Awareness Week in Kansas March
2-6. During the week, Kansans are
urged to check their emergency kit
supplies for their home, office and
vehicle, and review their emergency plans to make sure they are prepared for whatever severe weather is
thrown our way.
Even though March through June
typically brings severe storms, tornadoes, and flash floods, many people are still caught unprepared, said
Angee Morgan, KDEM deputy director. Being prepared really doesnt
take a lot of time or a lot of money
and while the odds are good you wont
need to use your emergency kit, its
better to be prepared, just in case.
According to the National Weather
Service, 40 tornadoes hit the state in
2014, about 40 fewer than the 30-year
average of 80 and the fewest since
1989. There were 27 tornado-related
injuries reported, but no fatalities.
The first tornado was reported April
2; the last was on Dec. 14, a reminder
that tornadoes can strike any time of
the year. The most tornadoes in one
day occurred May 11 when nine tornadoes were reported in the state.
In addition the National Weather
Service has declared March 4 as
National Flood Awareness Day. The

Weather Service and Kansas Division

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT As with anything new,
county residents and staff at the
Anderson County Extension office
have felt a few growing pains in the
first six months after joining the
Frontier Extension District.
But the benefits of joining the district far outweigh a handful of negatives, said Shannon Blocker, an extension agent in Anderson County.
Anderson County joined the
Frontier Extension District in July.
Franklin and Osage counties already
were part of the district, and the merger allowed agents to further specialize
in areas of expertise. All of the agents

Markham said he wont know

screenwriter of his generation and a frequent collaborator with Selznick. But he was
already writing several other
screenplays and could give
only five days to rewrite Gone
with the Wind. Director Victor
Fleming (played by Carr) was
at the helm of The Wizard of
Oz when Selznick suddenly reassigned him to replace
Cukor. The three icons would
not leave Selznicks office until
they had a screenplay worthy
of the novel.
The plays first line gives
fair warning that seatbelts may
be required for the next 90 minutes. You didnt read it?! Its
tantalizing Hollywood trivia
that Hecht had never read the
novel before writing the screenplay. With the clock ticking
and no better ideas, Selznick
decreed that he and Fleming
would act out the novel while
Hecht watched and wrote the
screenplay.
Charlotte Lutz plays Miss
Poppenghul, Selznicks secretary and the only fictitious character in the play. She is drawn,
however, from the legion of
assistants that Selznick went
through in his career. Even
his 1965 obituary referred
to the effect of his exacting,
exhausting ways: Selznick
eats writers, directors and secretaries, wrote The New York
Times upon his passing. Miss
Poppenghul keeps the trio supplied with bananas, peanuts
and office supplies throughout
the 5-day siege.

Krispy Kreme community killers
Believe it or not school will be out in
a couple of months, and between now and
then school club sponsors and teachers
will be kicking around those fundraising
ideas for next year aimed at sending kids to
band camp, on trips to New York, church
organization activities or any of a host of
cool things kids get to do if they can raise
enough money.
And unfortunately, they look to non-local
fundraising activities with slick marketing
materials and seasoned salesmen when
with a little initiative and creativity they
could raise as much or more money by
selling a local product or one provided by a
local business.
To add insult to injury, those school and
civic groups often times solicit the local
businesses that they skipped over in seeking suppliers and ask them to purchase the
goodies theyre ordering from some out-ofstate company. And even more ironic, most
of us in local businesses probably buy, just
because we dont want to say no to our own
local kids.
So you can kind of see whats wrong
with that picture, right?
After all, local civic groups can make,
package and sell their own salsa or even
their own donuts and buy the ingredients
from the local grocery store. They can. Do
talent shows, hold poker tournaments, fake
casino nights heavens, they can even sell
newspaper subscriptions to their family
members out of the area!
Not only does the sale of non-local fundraising items send thousands of local dollars
out of our local economy, it also contributes
to the disconnect between local residents
and the basic understanding of what businesses, products and services make up our
local business community.
For instance you cant buy a new Lexus
in Anderson County, but you can buy a
pizza, donuts, welding rod, a pair of pliers,
a water pump for an 86 Dodge Caravan,
schedule an auction, higher a lawyer or
a cabinet maker, etc. Negative attitudes
among some of our customers and a lack of
rudimentary marketing skills among some
of our business people have given customers
a clear picture, at least in their heads, of
whats not available to purchase locally.
A full picture of what is for sale around
here, well, thats a different story. Clearly,
local businesses and local customers need to
connect with each other at every opportunity, and that includes sourcing up opportunities for fundraisers.
Commercial fundraising companies
make it hard though they pepper organizations with tons of snappy color brochures
with luscious looking popcorns, gourmet
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
cookies, cookie doughs, etc., with even more
luscious looking 50% profit offers for the
sponsoring organization. The sales materials, order forms, etc., are already prepared
and can be received overnight why, with
all the organizing already done these products nearly sell themselves and you can
turn around your profit in no time. Those
companies make it easy, and in these timepressed days that means a lot indeed.
But did you know with the right local
event, coordinated through or using a local
business, you can make even better profit
margins and help promote and patronize
local businesses as well?
Why cant local businesses sell themselves to local organizations for these
fundraisers the same way some company in
New Jersey does? The simple answer is: Of
course they can- they just have to think up
a pitch and do it; think of a product they sell
that can work for local groups, find a way
to give those groups a comparable profit
margin with as little risk as possible, and
take that message to schools, churches, civic
groups, etc.
And we as busiensses can be more direct
about presenting our case for consideration.
The next time a local civic group comes to
your door selling a non-local fundraising
item, make a donation of $5 to the cause but
tell them youd prefer to purchase fundraising items made locally or through a local
business so more of the purchase benefits
others in the community. Thats a very fair
approach. And when someone finally does
come to you with a local fundraising option,
participate heartfully.
Civic organizations expect the support
of their community to do the good things
they do but they have to earn it. So too do
local businesses have to earn the support
of customers whether they be civic groups
or individuals. If everyone offers up a little
consideration, the deal can work for everyone.

have many years decades, in
many cases of experience in
their chosen field. Blocker, who
has worked for the Anderson
County Extension office for 12
years, is the least experienced
ag agent. Overall, the agent
with the least experience still
has eight years under her belt,
she said.
More agents mean more
opportunity to brainstorm and
figure out solutions to problems, Blocker said. Shes able to
learn from others in her field.
For example, lately it has been
helpful to Blocker to discuss
the new Farm Bill with other
ag agents. They brainstorm,
share ideas and encourage each
other, she said.
Weve been on our own
here for many years, she said.
One of the biggest advantages
is when we do have big events,
there are three agents to help.
Thats pretty novel for me.
As Anderson Countys only
ag agent, Blocker provided a
wide variety of information
for area farmers. Now, she
specializes in horticulture
and has been able to expand
horticulture events. Even so,
Blocker has developed relation-
ships with area farmers who
still turn to her for a variety
of needs. It often may be easier
for her to handle their questions rather than refer them to
another agent.
If I just threw up my hands
and said Thats not horticulture, Im not dealing with it,
that would be a problem,
she said. We can still handle
most things locally, which is a
strength of our district. Its also
a challenge, because its hard to
let some things go.
Nancy Schuster, foods agent
based in Anderson County, said
she has enjoyed getting to know
Extension staff and others in
Franklin and Osage counties.
She compared it to someone
who changes jobs, and must
adapt to a new working environment. Such a change can be
motivating, she said, because it
inspires you to try new methods and learn to work with new
people.
The biggest challenge has
been with travel, both Schuster
and Blocker said. While the
agents must travel more,
new events also mean more
traveling for people who use
Extension services.
Travel pains have been
felt the most by 4-H families,
Blocker said. For example,
4-Hers previously gathered for
County Club Days in Garnett
to share projects and compete.
Now, there will be just one Club
Days event, which will be in
Pomona. Families in southern
Anderson County will face a
much longer commute to the
event.
But the advantages of the
change are numerous, Blocker
said. Previously, Anderson
County could attract only three
judges who had to cover a variety of categories. At the new
events, local 4-Hers can benefit
from a greater number of specialized judges, who can give
more specific critiques and
advice. The quality of the competition also could help local
4-Hers rise to the occasion.
Overall, Blocker said joining the district has been positive for the county. Once the
growing pains have subsided,
she believes the county will be
well-positioned for the future.
What little bit of bumps we
go through now to figure things
out will be nothing compared to
the benefits well have 50 years
from now, she said. Im still
100 percent confident joining
the Frontier District was positive for us.

extend it past the front of the
house; then the front edge of the
garage would become the new
front of the house. Again,
though, a homeowner can only
do so if the new front edge is 25
feet or more from the road.
Thacker complained to city
commissioners at their Feb. 10
meeting that the rules were too
restrictive. He provided photographs of other properties with
carports that violated those
rules, and speculated those
property owners didnt get permission from the city before
they erected a carport. He said
it wasnt fair that he was told
no while trying to follow proper
procedure.
He also argued that because
can knock a person off their
feet. More than half of flood-related deaths involve vehicles.
Cars, even SUVs and trucks,
can be swept away by just two
feet of moving water. The best
protection during a flood is to
leave the area or your car and
take shelter on higher ground.

a metal carport isnt a permanent structure, it should be
allowed. The carport could easily be removed at some point in
the future, such as if he moved
or decided to replace it with a
garage extension.
City attorney Terry Solander
and other city leaders suggested Thacker contact the citys
planning and zoning commission. He can either request a
variance, which would allow
special permission for his
plans, or he could ask to change
the citys rules on such structures. Solander pointed out the
city has made several changes
in zoning regulations in recent
years to meet the needs of modern living. Metal carports are
quite popular now, but werent
as common when the zoning
rules were adopted decades
ago. The city first adopted zoning regulations in the 1970s,
and amended them in 1993.
After meeting with commissioners, Thacker applied
for a variance. Planning commissioners were made aware
of the issue at a meeting last
week, but did not indicate if
they would take up the carport
zoning issue as a whole or simply address Thackers project.
City Manager Joyce Martin
said there are no immediate
plans to address current carport structures that may violate zoning rules. She said staff
have driven past some of them,
and it appears some may have
been erected before the current
zoning rules were put in place.
But the previous two
months werent quite as good.
Decembers sales tax collections fell by 5 percent compared
to the previous year, collecting
just $19,550.89. November was
about the same, with collections 4.7 percent lower than the
previous year, with collections
of $20,479.16.
Garnett City Manager Joyce
Martin said she was concerned
that lower gas prices would
entice people to travel out of
town for shopping and entertainment, but the January
report showed otherwise. She
said it appears people still are
shopping locally, which is good
for the citys economy.
Even with the dips in
November and December, the
city still is ahead for the year,
she pointed out.
Id rather see that 0.6 percent than negative point-six.
Im real pleased, she said.
The City of Kincaid is the
only other city in the county
that collects a sales tax. Kincaid
collects 1 cent for every dollar,
or 1 percent. Sales tax collections for Kincaid have varied,
with some months bringing
in 71 percent less compared
to the previous year and some
months bringing in as much as
73 percent more. However,the
amount of sales tax collections
in Kincaid is very small, so
a small change in dollars can
amount to a significant change
in percentage. So far this year,
Kincaids collections are down
about 14.1 percent, with a total
collection for the fiscal year
to date of $2,223.95. However,
Januarys sales tax collections
were 73 percent higher than
the previous year ($620.34 compared to $358.64 in 2014) and
December was 69.8 percent
higher (($457.81 collected compared to $269.64 in 2013). A new
restaurant that recently opened
in the town likely contributed
to some of the increase.
Sales tax reports show how
much sales tax were collected
from local businesses and sent
back to the counties and cities to be spent as part of their
budgets, particularly on capital outlay projects that are earmarked for sales tax collections
like the Anderson County Jail,
or street repairs in Garnett.
Anderson Countys sales
tax rate is 1.5 percent, which
means for every dollar spent in
Anderson County, another oneand-a-half cents is collected and
returned to the county., The
City of Garnett has a half-cent
sales tax that is collected in
addition to the county sales tax.
The State of Kansas also collects sales tax of 6.15 percent.
SALES TAX…

because the county uses sales
tax to offset some of the cost
of constructing the Anderson
County Jail several years ago.
More sales tax collections
translate to lower property
taxes due to pay for the jails
construction.
Sales tax reports typically
reflect sales made two months
prior. Months listed here
reflect disbursements made
to the county or city in that
month, but represent sales collected two months prior.
In
Januarys
report,
Anderson County collected
$105,326.97 in sales tax. Thats
a little higher (1.4 percent) than
January 2014. For the fiscal
year so far, however, county
sales tax is 5 percent higher, or
a total of $737,735.47. The fiscal
year runs July to July, which
means Januarys sales tax collections represent about half of
the year.
Garnetts sales tax collections for the first half of the
fiscal year are virtually steady,
with a slight increase of 0.6
percent, or a total of $158,941.12
collected between July 2014
and January 2015. January
was a good month for the city,
with $24,704.17 collected an
increase of 9.9 percent compared to January 2014.

2005: Local legislators urge vote against gay marriage
Feb. 22, 2005
The Anderson County Road
Department has resumed
spreading rock on the countys gravel roads after briefly
curtailing the practice in an
effort to save money. The county needs to save a lot of money
– $486,884 to make up for a
shortfall caused by a tax appeal
filed by Missouri Gas Energy,
and minimizing rock spreading
was seen as one way of doing
so. However, heavy winter
rains were causing significant
damage to county roads.
The election for city and
school district offices April 5
will in no way be a yawner
this year, thanks to efforts to
include on the ballot a proposed
amendment to the Kansas constitution to prohibit gay marriage. Heavy voter turnout is
expected to decide the so-called
marriage amendment. All
four members of the legislature who represent a portion
of Anderson County voted in

Between Thursday and
Saturday morning, instruments at Garnett Airport measured 3.89 inches of moisture.
This amount of the rain added
to the water from the melted

creeks in the area. The county commissioners were out in
the county areas Friday checking the roads that have been
washed out and are in need of
immediate repair.

The ugliest snow storm of
the season fell in this section
last night. The snow wasnt so
very deep, but it was heavy
the wettest snow of the season.
As a result, some trees were
broken down and limbs broken from others. It was a very
searching snow, too, finding
weak places in cracks and crevices in roofs that the ordinary
snow or rain failed to find, so
leaks were discovered in many
roofs, and walls and ceilings
were damaged, more or less.
Telephone and electric wires
were broken down, causing
a lot of trouble and expense.
The promised cold snap did
not materialize and the snow
melted rapidly. The ground is
chock full of water. It is an ill
wind that blows nobody good,
and the snow adds to our store
of water for the coming season,
insuring crops of all kinds. So
whats the use of kicking?
Governor Capper will not
permit the Democratic senate
to overload the Kansas appropriation bills. The governor is
reported to be contemplating
a special message to the legislature about appropriates, and
in this message he is expected
to serve notice that if the big
appropriations allowed by the
senate finally are passed by the
house, some of the items will be
vetoed.
Apostle John makes this clear.
There was a man sent from
God, whose name was John.
The same came for a witness,
to bear witness of the light,
that all men through him might
believe.
John while he was baptizing in the River Jordan sees
Jesus coming to him and says,
Behold the Lamb of God
who takes away the sin of the
world. That Jesus Christ is
the Lamb of God points to him
as the great sacrifice by which
the atonement is made for sin,
and man is reconciled to God.
In the Old Testament every
morning and evening a lamb
was sacrificed by the priest
which was a type of Christ.
John the Baptist called for people to repent of their sins for
the remission of those sins.
Now through Jesus we see how
and by whom that remission
of sins was to be fulfilled and
what hope we have that our
sins shall be pardoned upon
repentance of them, though this
repentance makes no satisfaction for them.
This hope we have is Jesus
Christ who though sinless suffered and died for our sins.
The legal sacrifices in the Old
Testament had reference only
to the sins of Israel but the
Lamb of God was offered to
be an atonement for all, Jew
and Gentile through which
Jesus Christ paid the penalty
demanded by God because of
mans sin, thus setting mankind free from sin and death.
Man has been set free from sin and death
The Old Testament closes
with the book of Malachi. It
closes with a promise from the
Lord. See I will send you the
prophet Elijah before that great
and dreadful day of the LORD
comes. He will turn the hearts
of the fathers to their children,
and the hearts of the children
to their fathers; or else I will
come and strike the land with a
curse. (Malachi 4:5-6) The day
of the Lord is a special day or

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
LACYGNE Eighty-two years
ago last Friday night the same
day as 12-7 Prairie Views overtime loss to the 4-14 Anderson
County Bulldogs the U.S.
Congress proposed the 21st
Amendment to end Prohibition.
Funny how things have a
way of working out. At the end
of Fridays game, Prairie View
fans no doubt could use a drink.
AC muscled its way back
from a disastrous first period
of play Friday night to hold
the Buffaloes to 2 points in
the fourth period and a single free-throw in overtime to
bring home a 51-47 prize all
the sweeter considering PV
obliterated Garnett by 30 points
in their last meeting earlier in
January.
You might call it an upset,
but AC head coach Steve Lyon
says its a young team maturing into its individual strengths
and gelling as a team. Having
suffered enough hard knocks
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, February 24, 2015
SPORTS
Bulldogs freeze PV shooters in
final period, win 51-47 in OT
this year to build up callouses
where it counts and learning
from its errors, the Bulldogs
appear to be blooming late in
the 2015 season.
After all, a pushover team
can stop up a hard-charging,
physical team like Prairie View
for a couple of plays and drain
a few shots, but rarely for an
entire period and certainly
not followed up by a succeeding
five minute overtime. If the PV
game was a hint, it was a loud
one ACs no pushover anymore.
Our defense was great,
Lyon said. Especially in the
fourth quarter where we held
them to 2 points and in the overtime when they only scored 1. It
was a very physical game and
our boys rose to the challenge.
AC has won four of its last
six games, the last two in a row.
Lyon said he thinks Fridays
Prairie View win was an attention-getting example of a team
thats growing from ugly duckling into a swan.
We only returned one starter, he said. Were young
were playing five juniors, two
sophomores and a freshman.
theyre coming together.
Theyre maturing and becoming varsity players.
The Buffaloes out gunned
AC 15-4 in the first period
but the Bulldogs found their
stride in the second quarter,
narrowing PVs lead to 26-19 at
the half. DAnthony Fredericks
and Jake Rundle spread out the
Prairie View defense, attacking
with 3-point shots that allowed
John Rundle, Derrick Nelson
and Chase Ratliff to score from
closer in.
But PVs Ryan Robbins
found a hole in the Bulldog
defense in the third quarter,
soaking AC for 8 points on the
way to an 18-9 period, which
meant AC trailed by 44-28 going
into the fourth period.
Then it happened.
ACs defense congealed
around shooters Robbins and
Trent Phelps Phelps scored
12 for the game but just 2
PVs only points in the fourth
period. Meanwhile, Fredericks
slammed a three-pointer and
another bucket from closer in
while Chase Ratliff, Nick Levy,
John Rundle and Nelson peppered shots around the Buffalo
defense to mass an 18-point
period and tie the game at 46
at the end of regulation. Levy
nailed two and a free-throw
in extended time while ACs
defense held PV to a single freethrow.
Levy totaled 12 for the night,
Nelson 10, John Rundle and
Fredericks 8 each, Jake Rundle
7 and Ratliff 6. Robbins led PV
with 17.
The momentum couldnt
come at a better time for
Anderson County with substate play beginning March 5.
Were planning carrying
our streak into sub-state, Lyon
said. Were getting better.
Maybe we can make something
happen.

Anderson Countys Derrick Nelson sets up his defense Friday, Feb.
20, against Prairie View. Anderson County pulled out a narrow win
in overtime.
Westphalia teams log 4-6 records
WESTPHALIA
The
Westphalia Junior High
Lady Wolverines ended their
season 4-6 with wins against
Marmaton Valley, Crest, and
Marais De Cygne Valley.
The top scorers were Jenna
Schmit with 9 points per game,
Katelynn Renyer with 6 points
per game, and Braelynn Falls
with 4 points per game.
We improved our confidence and skills over the course
of the season, said coach Laci
with 4-6 records.
The A team was lead in scoring by 8th graders: Korbin
Edgecomb (11 ppg), Roscoe
Weatherbee (6 ppg) and Austin
Adams (6 ppg).
Over the entire season the
boys worked hard and well
with each other to make practices and games a positive experience, said coach Jeremy
Ball. We had 3 games that
came down to the final minute
where free throws decided the
Brandt. We focused a lot on
defense and applying full-court
pressure on our opponents,
which helped carry over into
our offense.
Brandt said the 8th grade
players were great role models and leaders for the younger
players and will be greatly
missed. It was a very fun and
exciting season, said coach
Brandt.
Westphalia A & B boys teams
also both ended their season

learned a lot about themselves
as individuals through losses
and wins and how they reacted to situations positively to
come back to practice looking
to make our team better for
their next game.
It has been a privilege to
work with this team and look
forward to next years season,
Ball said.

MOUND CITY Crests Austin
Green drilled two treys and hit
four out of five free throws in
the second period of the Lancer
matchup with Jayhawk-Linn
Thursday, and Hunter Frazell
kept up the 3-point assault in
the fourth period to keep up the
momentum in a hard-fought
73-63 win at Mound City.
Green hammered in three
buckets in the first period as
Crest led 14-10 at the end of the
first period and 38-32 at the half.
They always seemed to be
making big plays, Hermreck
said. They kept the tempo right
where we wanted it. Defensively
we played good team defense.
Despite giving up a lot of size
and athleticism we made everything tough.
Crest held the lead and widened it slightly in the second
well, in a game that head coach
Travis Hermreck noted showed
far more consistency than the
Lancers had mustered lately.
We have been pretty inconsistent as of late, Hermreck
said, but tonight we brought
some fight with us. This was a
huge win for our team.
Though Crests guards controlled the offensive tempo of the
game JL was never far behind.

half. Hunter Frazell was deadly
from outside in the fourth period, nailing three 3-pointers in a
period that saw Crest mass only

With the sub-state tournament next week, Hermreck

momentum booster.
Hopefully this gives us a

ACHS vs. Iola
GARNETT Anderson County
found its footing against Iola last
week and tucked away a 57-34 win
in preparation for sub-state play
next week.
The Bulldogs put 8 scorers on
the board in the contest to reflect
the wide-ranging team effort. The
Mustang defense was determined
to stop Jake Rundle from shooting
the ball and fouled him twice in
the second period to give him 3 free
points. Mason Skiles hit both his
freebies on a shooting foul in the
second period and came in with a
trey to help AC to 26-15 lead at the
half.
ACs defense held Iola to single-digit scoring in the first three
quarters, giving the Bulldog offense
room to make a short run in the
fourth period to widen the margin.
Jake Rundle led AC with 13
points. Chase Ratliff had 11, Nick
Levy 8, Skiles 8, Derrick Nelson
7, DAnthony Fredericks 4, John
Rundle 4, Trey Ahring 2.

Dear customer: Please come back Rail trail group meets
Sometimes a business loses
customers for good reason.
Sometimes, they just fade away.
Either way, every company no
matter how big or small should
go through the exercise every
now and then of looking up
inactive customers to find out
whats up.
Most of the time if you lose a
big customer both the absence
and the reasoning are apparent, at least if your company is
awake enough to have a pulse.
But its smaller and medium
sized customers the ones that
altogether make up the bulk of
sales for most companies that
can fade away without a lot of
fanfare and can really add up to
losses once theyre gone.
So at least once a year, go
back through your computerized billing (if you handle your
accounts by hand, dig out that
box of counter receipts or old
invoices) and take a little tour
through your revenues of yesterday. Do the same thing for
prospects you worked with but
never developed into sales. I
guarantee youll find at least
a handful of customers that
youll say, hey, I wonder whatever happened to him?
Once youve developed that
list, make a point to send out a
coupon or some kind of promotional mailing on a first class
postcard. Its a great reminder
that youre still here and interested in their business, and as
long as its mailed first class the
post office will either forward
to a new address (if within the
allowable forwarding time) or
send the card back so you can
update your list with the dead
address.
From that main list, pull the
handful of ah-hah customers
and contacts. These would be
the people who perhaps placed
sizeable orders on a seasonal
basis or maybe a special purchase or one-time contact.
These are the folks worth
re-prospecting.
You re-prospect in a lot the

same way that you that you
prospect. Call and ask for
your old contact, who probably isnt still there, and ask for
whoever makes the purchases
for your product now.
Youre looking for three
things: 1) the new contact name
and info, 2) why they havent
purchased from you lately, and
3) if the possibility exists for
you to resume a place on their
active vendor list.
If youre in retail, this process is pretty similar, particularly for a larger customer

A Brief History of the National FFA Organization
The passage of the
Smith-Hughes Vocational
Education Act in 1917 not
only provided federal funds
to states for high school
courses in vocational education (agriculture, family
and consumer sciences, and
trades and industries) but
it also led to the idea for an
organization that is known
today as the National FFA
Organization.
In the early 1920s, just a
few years after the SmithHughes Act was enacted,
Virginia formed a Future
Farmers of Virginia club for
boys in agriculture classes.
Other states soon followed
Virginias lead and formed
their own Future Farmers
organizations. The next logical next step was to create a national organization
to bring together all of the
state organizations.
In 1928, a group of vocational agriculture students
were in Kansas City, Mo., for
the third annual National
Congress of Vocational
Agriculture
Students,
which was held during the
American Royal Livestock
and Horse Show. On Nov. 20,
33 of those students from 18
states met at the Baltimore
Hotel in Kansas City and
formed the Future Farmers
of America.
FFA was for young men
who were studying vocational agriculture in public secondary schools, and
the new organization was
designed to develop agricultural leadership, character,
thrift, scholarship, cooperation, citizenship and patriotism.
The organization was
structured on three levels
local, state and national
with students starting their
FFA experience by joining a local chapter at their
school, where the agriculture teacher serves as the
chapter advisor. As part of
the larger program that is
now called agricultural edu-
cation, FFA members are
encouraged to participate
in all three components of
the program: (1) classroom/
laboratory work (through
enrollment in agriculture
classes); (2) membership
in FFA; and (3) hands-on
work experience through
the supervised agricultural
experience program.
Each FFA chapter develops and follows an annual
program of activities, and
all members share in planning the program and participate in its execution.
Through their participation, members learn how
to take part in meetings,
follow parliamentary procedure, speak in public and
cooperate with their fellow
students.
Student officers are elected on each level to lead
the organizations activities, and FFA members
receive recognition for
their achievements through
competition and award programs. The annual national
convention and expo offers
FFA members an opportunity to come together from
across the country and celebrate their accomplishments over the past year.
By 1935, FFA membership had topped 100,000 with
more than 3,900 chapters in
47 states, Hawaii and Puerto
Rico. That same year, the
New Farmers of America
was established to provide
leadership opportunities to
African-American students
enrolled in vocational education classes.
Land was purchased in
Alexandria, Va., for the
National FFA Headquarters
in 1939, and in 1944, the
National FFA Foundation
was created to raise funds
from business and industry
to help support the many
new programs being developed for the growing FFA
membership. In 1950, Public
Law 740 was passed by the
U.S. Congress, granting FFA
a federal charter and requiring that a U.S. Department
of Education staff member
be the national FFA advisor.
FFA membership took
a leap in 1965 when 58,000
members of the New
Farmers of America merged
with the Future Farmers
of America. This followed
an act of Congress that
prohibited segregation in
public schools. Four years
later, delegates at the 1969
National FFA Convention
voted to allow women to be
members of FFA.
In 1976, Alaska became
the 50th state to obtain a
state charter. A membership high was recorded in
1977, with 509,735 members
in 8,148 chapters in all 50
states, Puerto Rico and the
Virgin Islands.
By the 1980s, the Future
Farmers of America had
become more than an organization for rural farm students. In 1988, the delegates
at the 61st National FFA
Convention voted to change
the organizations official
name from Future Farmers
of America to the National
FFA Organization. This
change was made to recognize that FFA is not only for
those interested in farming,
but it is also for those with
more diverse interests in
the industry of agriculture,
encompassing science, business and technology in addition to production farming.
The late 1990s marked a
period of location changes for the National FFA
Organization. The National
FFA Center was moved
from Alexandria, Va., to
Indianapolis, Ind., where a
