Locals take sides on
issue of arming teachers
WASHINGTON, D.C. Both
nationally and in Anderson
County, Americans are
debating President Trumps
notion that armed teachers
and school staff would mean
safer students in the era of the
school shooter.
When we declare our
schools to be gun free
zones, the president told the
Conservative Political Action
Committee conference, weeks
after the Valentines Day
shooting in Broward County,
Fla., it just puts our students
in far more danger, Trump.
He said arming teachers who
know their students made for
a defensive advantage.
A teacher would have shot
the hell out of him, Trump
said.
The comments have generated arguments not just
between the traditional
anti and pro Trump camps,
but also among people who
view school safety anywhere
along the continuum of more
gun control to arming both
teachers and multiple school
guards.
Last week on our Facebook
page, the Review asked for
comments on the subject from
our page followers. By a narrow marking as of Saturday
(10 of 18 comments) most of the
responses favored some kind
of option to allow teachers to
be armed, but others echoed a
call for different solutions.
Long-term culture must
change to value life if we are
ever to see an end to these
horrific acts of violence, said
former Garnett resident Dan
Benjamin. Short-term eliminating gun free zones and
allowing access to firearms
in schools will save lives.
Certainly only those teachers
and administrative personnel
who are comfortable carrying and appropriately trained
should take on this role.
Others werent convinced.
Whoever thought this up
obviously fails in the critical
thinking area, said Marigene
Purcell of Garnett.
Vickie Mersman said the
idea of an unknown number
of armed individuals on site
at schools would be its own
deterrent.
Even if it were a select few
of teachers that were carrying a gun no one would know
which ones are and which
ones arent and it may stop
them. Fear the unknown.
But others said more guns
at school wasnt a plausible
solution.
Its absolutely ridiculous.
Adding more guns to the equation is a mistake. Prevention
is the key (access to mental
health care, banning access to
assault weapons), said Jayme
Waltz of Emporia.
Mark Padfield, a teacher in
the Tonganoxie school district
and Garnett High School graduate, said the option should be
open.

Alcohol suspected in car-train mishap
BY MELISSA HOBBS THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
KINCAID Authorities suspect alcohol was involved in
a car-train collission near
Kincaid which injured two
Linn County men.
Shortly after midnight on
February 17, deputies with
the Anderson County Sheriffs
Department reported to a
train versus vehicle accident
near Kincaid. Luckily for
the men inside the truck, the
escaped the accident with only
minor injuries. Sheriff Vern
Valentine reported that both
had been taken to the hospital,
but as of last Thursday had
since returned home.
Conductors inside the
Union Pacific train reported
seeing the white Toyota pickup stopped on the track. They
put the train into an emergency stop mode, but still struck
the truck. After getting the
train stopped, Conductor Glen
Smith said he went to check
on the passengers of the vehicle. He reported to the deputies that he could smell alcohol, and that he thought they
were likely intoxicated.
There seems to be alcohol involved, said Sheriff
Valentine. Both of them were
tested for DUI.
The driver of the truck,
Richard L. Glover, of Blue
Mound, was tested on sight
for alcohol and tested positive
through both observation and
breath testing. Test results
for the passenger, Jacob A.
Stanbrough, also of Blue
Mound, werent yet available.
The train crew showed
police officers that the horn,
headlight, and bell on the
train were all in working
order. The accident occurred
near the intersections of 500
and Wabaunsee Roads. There
were 136 cars in the train, and
none had derailed from the
track upon impact.

/ CARLY HICKS
Tuesdays ice storm made a crystal spectacle out of most outdoor objects and cancelled or delayed classes on Tuesday and
Thursday. Warmer temperatures and lots of
notice from the weatherman gave highway
crews time to treat local thoroughfares and
keep traffic issues to a minimum.
Hitting the road with driver education
BY MELISSA HOBBS THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA The lack of drivers education programs in some area schools has
parents upset, but luckily for students at
USD 365, the program is still available.
According to Superintendent Don Blome,
Anderson County High School students
can still take the program through an
online program called Edmodo. The program allows students to complete the
handbook and test portion of the curriculum during the spring semester.
Over the summer, the students then drive with a
licensed instructor.
Depending on the
need, we have two
to three licensed
staff members for
the driving portion, said Blome.
The drivers education class at USD
365 costs students
$150 and is only
available to students in the district.
Having a licensed
instructor is the problem that Crest
USD 479 has run into. The main reason
we dont offer the class here is that we
dont have a licensed drivers education
instructor, said Crest Superintendent
Chuck Mahon.
Luckily for Crest students, Kansas
doesnt require a student to have a drivers education course to
get a drivers license
once the student
reaches the age of 16. While there are
advantages to getting a drivers education
class, like discounts on your insurance
rates up to ten percent, most states dont
actually require the courses anymore.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City commissioners have once again embraced
a program that allows property
owners who build or extensively renovate homes or businesses in Garnett to receive a rebate
on the additional property tax
those improvements generate
though county leaders have not
joined them in expanding it.
The
Neighborhood
Revitalization Program allows
people who build new homes
or commercial buildings to
be rebated 95 percent of their
taxes for 5-8 years, and those
who do extensive rehab on
properties that ends up increasing their property taxes also
get the rebate on additional
taxes. The plan was initiated
by the Garnett Area Chamber
of Commerce in the early 1990s,
and has to be approved each
year by the authorizing taxing
bodies in this case the city,
county and USD 365 each of
which agrees to the plan and
the tax reduction.
The plan was initially set
up to be available to certain
designated blighted areas in
Garnett, including the downtown, industrial park areas
Id tell you a chemistry joke, but I know I wouldnt get a reaction.

age of 15, but otherwise
can wait and get a lesser
restricted license at the age
of 16 without the drivers

requirement.
Oklahoma accepts parent

for the requirement of drivers education. Missouri,
on the other hand, doesnt
require drivers education

Short term, give us the
option, Padfield said. Train
and certify as stringently as
you wish. Let it be known that
the option exists and the target
is no longer soft, that alone is a
deterrent even if there isnt a
single teacher that opts in. He
said there were deeper issues
in solving the overall problem.
Long term, secure the
schools and fund us as we
need. Connect to each other
and put value on respect and
civility again instead of the
ego-centered model we have
now. Padfield said he believed
there were too many guns in
the country to make a weapons
ban work.
The genie is out of the bottle on banning anything. Short
of waving a magic wand, you
arent going to get the weapons
back.
If the teacher is properly
trained and feels comfortable
with such responsibility then
my answer is yes, said former
area resident Angela Howey of
Topeka.
Les Thomas, a Garnett resident and retired instructor at
Neosho County Community
College, agreed the option
should be available.
Let each individual teacher decide, Thomas said.
Some are for being armed.
Give them proper training and
support. If they choose not to
be armed, so be it. If my childs
history teacher feels he or she
can make school safe(er) then
I support them. To those suggesting to arm teachers with
an hour or two of training are
being pretty ridiculous.
John Gooding of Garnett
favored the idea, saying armed
protection was a standard in
many other areas.
Let any adult that wants
to be armed, be armed. The
fact that two mass shootings
have happened in non-gun free
zones since 1950 should make
this not debatable, he said.
We protect everything in
our country with guns except
children money, politicians,
airports, sporting events, government buildings, military
bases. Its simple, protect the
kids the way we protect everything else.
Katrina Tucker Winters,
formerly of Welda, said keep
the guns in the hands of the
professionals.
No, she said. Schools
should have armed trained
security officers on sight to
protect.
No legislation or executive
order has yet been discussed
in the U.S. Congress in relation to the latest shooting,
though President Trump reiterated the concept in a tweet
Saturday, saying the ultimate
decision should be up to individual states.

JANUARY 23, 1945 – FEBRUARY 19, 2018
Linda L. Carter, age 73, of
Olathe, Kansas, passed away
on Monday, February 19, 2018,
at her home.
Linda Lou Kipper was born
January 23, 1945, in Kansas
City, Missouri. She was the
only child of George and
Marjorie (Kincheloe) Kipper.
She married Walter Carter
on August 5, 1967 at St. Agnes
Catholic Church in Mission,
Kansas.
Mass of Christian Burial
was held February 22, 2018 at
the Old St. Patricks Oratory,
806 Cherry Street, Kansas City,
Missouri 64106. Interment
followed Friday, at the St.
Boniface Cemetery, Scipio,
Kansas.
I wrote the following quote
down but failed to record the
author. With that said the
statement is too accurate not
to share so I shall proceed.
I (the author) have a high
regard for the depravity of
man. Without contest, the
supreme sinfulness of sinners
is the most disregarded reality the world over. The fall
of man is quite possibly the
most forgotten, under appreciated and misunderstood event
in history. For this reason
many in our day preach salvation but neglect sin; many talk
about Christ but fail to talk
about conviction; many offer
testimonies about renewal but
forget to mention repentance.
There is a lot to unwrap
here so I will begin by defining
depravity. Depravity is a state
of corruptness which means we
have suffered the loss of a former soundness or virtue. We
are not sinners because we sin;
we sin because we are sinners.
Since the fall human nature
has been corrupt. We are born
with a sin nature. Our acts of
sin flow out of this corrupted
nature. Think about it this
way. If you have children did
you have to teach them how
to misbehave? No you didnt,
nor did I. Misbehaving came
quite naturally. At the fall
Adam and Eve traded virtue
for corruption. The bad thing
about this is we as a society
have embraced corruption.
Through all sorts of media we
have become convinced that we
should just move forward with
the rest of the world even if we
are going the wrong way on an
interstate highway. We over
spend, over indulge, over react,
you name it and we practice
it. I was amazed to find out
that Americans spend 30 billion dollars annually on bank
overdraft charges. Why cant
we get things straightened out?
In my opinion we like our state
of corruption. It fits well and
we manage to hold some virtue
as well. The problem with this
is that every material thing is
subject to decay or loss.
Jesus addressed this issue in
Matthew 6:19-21; when he says,
Do not lay up for yourselves
treasures on earth, where moth
and rust destroy and where
thieves break in and steal, but
lay up for yourselves treasures
in heaven, where neither moth
or rust destroys and where
thieves do not break in and
steal. For where your treasure is there your heart will be
also. Proverbs 14:12 is perfectly clear on this state of mind
we maintain when the writer says, There is a way that
seems right to a man but its
end is the way to death. Dont
stay on this path just because
it seems right or because that
is what everyone else is doing.
If you stay there too long there
may be no way back.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, February 27, 2018
OPINION
Media gives NEA a pass on school violence
How odd that so much media criticism after
the recent Florida school shooting has been
focused against the National Rifle Association
instead of the National Education Association.
After all, school shootings involve guns and
schools.
But as instance after instance of school
shootings have unfolded across the country
over the past two decades and high-profile criticism and media attention constantly focused
on the NRA for its support of constitutional
gun rights, a review of media reports shows no
limelight at all focused on the NEA for failing
to make schools safer.
Its an irony that apparently escapes many
journalists if an association of 5 million
members like the NRA bears responsibility
for the violence committed by murderers with
guns (none of whom have been NRA members,
notably), then shouldnt an assessment be
performed of the NEA, with its 3 million members, and its efforts to make schools safer?
But interestingly, a review last week of
the posted information on the NEAs website shows no such instruction to staff and
administration for ensuring safer schools no
outline for upgraded security measures or
instruction to schools on their implementation; no video presentations on Run, Hide,
Fight,; no insight as to identifying troubled
students who might potentially turn violent
and how to implement treatment.
There are no hiring guidelines for school
guards or criteria for assessing their ability and willingness to engage a possible
school shooter. No suggestion of evaluation
for auto-locking doors or magnetic switches
which lock down or sound alarms if large
metal objects are brought close to them. No
treatise on what it is about public schools that
goes so terribly wrong for some students, and
why those schools are so often the target of the
deranged.
What the NEAs website does include is
plenty of self-serving political aggrandizement. Tell Betsy Devos Its Time To Resign
heralds one header on the slideshow of main
backgrounds. What Do Vouchers Have To Do
With Protecting Bullied Students? and Its
Time To Take Action: Students Lead Protest
To Change Gun Laws.
Its worth mentioning, of course, that capitalizing each word in a sentence isnt proper
grammar but oddly a style adopted by an
association of educators.
The larger point is that while school shooting news coverage attacks the NRA for pursuing its members interests and assigns guilt
based on the belief that owning firearms is a
constitutional right, there is no similar expectation or attention paid to the organization
which collects dues from teachers at each loca-

tion where a school shooting has taken place.
The NEA, in fact, at least from the content of its website, has offered no proposals
for more secure schools whatsoever yet its
mainstay of membership is those very public
schools whose safety it ignores.
While it offers nothing in the way of guidance or instruction for preventing or surviving a school shooting, the NEA has actively
explored its own right to free expression and
political activism by generously supporting
Democratic political candidates. From 1989
through the 2014 election cycle, the NEA spent
some $92 million on political donations, 97
percent of which was paid to Democrat candidates.
But throughout the post-Columbine era
shootings at Red Lake, Minn., the Amish
school shooting in Nickel Mines, Penn., the
Virginia Tech shooting Newtown, Conn.,
Umqua Communitiy College the NEA repeatedly committed none of its budget to develop
school training programs for security or tactical survival in a live shooter situation, or
devoted resources to studying why students go
crazy and attack schools.
This, of course, is among the questions
journalists in the media dont ask. But it seems
sauce for the goose should, by rights, be sauce
for the gander.

Since the emergency 911 enhanced locator system is apparently not working properly and
caused the police and sheriffs department to
kick in the wrong door of an innocent persons
house, I wonder if we can get a refund of our 911
taxes we pay in? Usually when Im paying for a

expect my money back.
In response to the missing ducks at the south

that border the roadway on the north side of the

out of one of those holes, and it was a Great Dane.

Russia did nothing we didnt do to ourselves
If only Joe McCarthy had lived to see this
moment, when it is suddenly in vogue to attribute large-scale events in American politics
to the hand of Russia and to inveigh against
domestic subversion.
Robert Mueller released an indictment of 13
Russians for crimes related to their social-media campaign to meddle in our internal affairs
in the run-up to and aftermath of the 2016 election.
Mueller obviously isnt a McCarthyite, and
cant be held responsible for the hysteria — and
hopeful expectations of an impeachment-level
event — that has built up around his work. His
indictment is, as far as anyone can tell, rigorously factual. Thats probably the point of it -to create a record of an episode that we should
want to know as much about as possible and
prevent from ever happening again.
The Russia campaign was a shockingly
cynical violation of our sovereignty. President
Donald Trump would do himself and the country a favor by frankly denouncing it. But the
scale of the operation shouldnt be exaggerated. In the context of a hugely expensive,
obsessively covered, impossibly dramatic
presidential election, the Russian contribution on social media was piddling and often
laughable.
The Russians wanted to boost Trump, but
as a Facebook executive noted, most of their
spending on Facebook ads came after the elec-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
tion. The larger goal was to sow discord, yet
we had already primed ourselves for plenty of
that.
Does anyone believe, absent Russian trolls
on Twitter and Facebook, that we were headed
to a placid election season involving an incendiary, mediagenic former reality TV star bent
on blowing up the political establishment and
a longtime pol who had stoked the enmity of
Republicans for 30 years and was under FBI
investigation?
If you read the Mueller indictment, you
might think the Russians were everywhere,
not only advertising on Facebook (Trump
is our only hope for a better future; Ohio
Wants Hillary 4 Prison), but organizing ral-
lies around the country. But its not clear
these rallies even came off.
The Russians didnt do anything to us that
we werent doing to ourselves, although we
were doing it on a much larger, more potent
scale. The Russians are just aping the arguments we are already having with one other,
and the sewerish level of much of the discussion on social media.
The New York Times ran a report the
other day on Russian bots, in the immediate
aftermath of the Parkland school shooting,
posting on Twitter about gun control. Its hard
to believe that this is going to rip apart the
American body politic when many perfectly respectable, red-blooded Americans themselves advocate for gun control, and often in
the immediate aftermath of shootings.
In a better world, Trump would be less
defensive about the Russian investigation,
and his opposition would be less obsessively
invested in it (at least until such time that it
produces a genuine bombshell).
We should seek to shut down Russian influence as much as possible, without losing perspective. We arent divided because of Russia;
were divided because we have genuine, deeply held differences. The fault, to the extent
there is one, isnt with the bots, but with ourselves.

SOMETHING is nothing without real proposals
The gun control debate is complex. It pits

rights against duties. It pits individualism
against communitarianism. It pits gun owners against anti-gun activists, and law-abiding
citizens against one another. Most of all, it pits
common sense against evidence.
The vast majority of gun control proponents keep talking about common sense gun
control, as though Americans could simply
blue-sky some ideas about curbing highly
sporadic acts of violence and fix the problem
immediately and as though Americans
were suffering from lack of will, rather than
disagreement about method. Thats simply

should ensure more transparency in the background-check system with regard to mental
health records, and we should look to ease the
regulations on involuntary commitment of
the dangerously mentally ill.
We should also radically increase security
in schools. I attended a Jewish high school
that was regularly threatened with violence.
Every student who attends that school is now
checked in by security; the school has barriers
on every side; armed security guards attend
the campus. The same measures should be
available at every public school. Complaints
about the so-called school-to-prison pipeline
created by the presence of law enforcement
at schools seem to be overblown, according
to the data and, more importantly, its the
schools job to ensure the safety of students,
not to protect students against their own criminal behavior.
These are simple measures that should be
able to achieve broad agreement. But they
probably wont, because its too politically
useful for the left to rail broadly about gun
control. The biggest problem with the gun control debate has been its failure to boil down
slogans to proposals. That problem wont be
alleviated so long as the media insist on putting mourning teenagers on television with
the chyron DO SOMETHING. Something
is nothing unless someone puts some actual
proposals on the table.

to remind me that ignorance is rampant in the
county I live in and something needs to be done
about it. Last weeks editorial on teachers bearing arms solidifies my feelings.
Crest 479, what is happening down there? You
have hired a sports nut as a superintendent and
principal and you are getting what you asked
for. Your administration and board are spending tens of thousands of dollars on a baseball
program and money on a field that does not
belong to the school. Is that legal? The girls
softball field at Kincaid has had nothing done
to it. Do I see sexual discrimination there? Now
a group has been formed to push for a new gym
at Colony. Do any of those pushing for bond
issues pay any taxes? Lordy, what has happened
to education? What has Crest done to improve
student readiness to go to college? Oh, thats
right, all Crest students go to school on a sports
scholarship. Ha.

Seeking assistance to identify object
Well folks, here I am again
asking for your help in identifying this artifact that I found
at my latest archaeological
project on 15 February 2018.
My research thus far has
brought me absolutely no
results.
Right now all I know is
that it is some type of locking device and made of solid
brass.
As to what it was used for,
I have no clue. Ive looked it
over several times with my
high powered magnifying
glass, trying to locate some
writing or manufacturers
marking, but with no luck.
I discovered it somewhere
between 6-9 inches deep in

please give me a call or send

then cant identify it or learn
anything about its history. It

Law enforcement and some
jail officials say some expenses are up and some are down
since the county closed the
vintage jail, relocated to a
new sheriffs department, and
started shipping prisoners to
Allen County Jail. But when
it all balances out, officials
think the departments have
actually saved a little money
in the change. Sheriff Scot
Brownrigg said his department still came in under budget at the closing of 2007, even
with a new expense of $800
a month to rent the former
Guest Home Estates facility.
But the department has saved
several thousand dollars over
the months in supply expenses
such as laundry soap, beverages, and other consumables that
are no longer needed because
the department doesnt house
its own inmates. The department has also saved $60,000 in
prisoner meals.

A company headquartered
in Westphalia may be interested in bringing a 10,000 head
hog operation to Anderson
County, and county commissioners said that such
a request would have to be
considered under the special
commercial use permit clause
in the countys zoning regulations. Commissioner Gene
Highberger said he had been
contacted by Mike Croucher
of Sunflower Pork company
concerning the possibility of
locating the hog operation in
INSIGHT
JOHN SCHLAGECK, Kansas Farm Bureau
Ive never seen anything
like it, Brunkow says. I
knew we were in trouble, but
I never imagined thered be
three lambs. So, I never even
thought about the prospect of
losing two babies.
Loosing livestock of any
kind represents one of the
worst experiences that can
occur on a farm or ranch. Like
other stockmen, Brunkow
looks at his stock every day
hes on his family farm.
He checks on their health,
food and water. The stockman
also looks to see how theyre
progressing. Their condition.
Its an emotional attachment you have when you raise
cattle, hogs, sheep, whatever
you have in your operation,
Brunkow says. These live-
stock live with you day in and
day out. Youve raised them
from the first day they hit the
ground until theyre producing
calves or lambs in your herd.
Its a passion.
And its constantly changing. Every day is a new day
filled with challenges and successes. Still, Brunkow looks
forward to these opportunities.
Like the rising sun, the
Pottawatomie County stockman wakes up and looks forward to these opportunities.
Hes excited about his livestock. He knows they rely on
him to care for them.
Theyre part of his life just
like speaking on behalf of his
vocation. Brunkow speaks to
people about his crop and livestock operation because hes
committed to doing so.
As a spokesperson, hes willing to do more, because its
who he is.
John Schlageck is a leading
commentator on agriculture
and rural Kansas. Born and
raised on a diversified farm in
northwestern Kansas, his writing reflects a lifetime of experience, knowledge and passion.

asked commissioners if the

James Campbell said there
was no prohibition of such

Members of the Anderson
County
Hospital
Board
approved the $29,758 purchase of a new ambulance
from Collins Ambulance
Corporation of Hutchinson.
The board had been considering the project for several months, but delayed in
the decision making process
until the new 1988 models
were released. According
to Hospital Administrator
Ed Brown, other bids were
received for $32,575, $34,681,

RECYCLE!
Total committment
Pottawatomie County farmer/stockman Glenn Brunkow
entered the Capital Plaza Hotel
in Topeka with his hair askew
and his demeanor a bit dampened. In less than 10 minutes
Brunkow was slated to speak
on international trade and its
impact on Kansas.
He quickly walked into the
Sunflower Ballroom, shrugged
off his hectic morning on the
farm and shifted into the advocacy-for-agriculture role. His
eyes twinkled, he flashed his
trademark Brunkow grin and
headed for the stage to greet the
other members of the Kansas
Farm Bureau-sponsored panel
on trade.
In his opening statement
to the more than 80 Kansas
Press Association (KPA) members gathered for their annual
meeting, Brunkow told them,
Trade is the lifeblood of
Kansas farmers and ranchers.
Without trade, were unable to
market nearly half of the crops
and livestock we produce.
Speaking of ag production,
Brunkow farms with his father
north of Wamego. The family
operation consists of soybeans,
corn, wheat, hay, a cow herd
and a small flock of sheep.
The fifth-generation farmer/stockman crawled out of
bed early that Friday morning, Feb. 9, before heading to
the KPA meeting in Topeka.
Brunkow had livestock to feed
and his sheep were lambing.
One of the ewes struggled to
give birth and the stockman
called his veterinarian to help.
As soon as the vet arrived,
Brunkow laid out the situation facing the momma ewe.
Committed to speaking on the
trade panel, Brunkow left the
vet with his father and daughter to help and headed east.
Talk about commitment
Brunkow firmly believes
his farm organization is the
most powerful voice for Kansas
agriculture whether farmers
and ranchers are lobbying
elected officials in Topeka or
Washington D.C., educating
fourth graders on his family
farm or addressing newspaper
editors across Kansas about
the importance of trade.
And while Brunkow headed
to the KPA meeting, the situation back west on his farm had
deteriorated. He learned the
news in a phone call from his
daughter a few minutes before
he arrived in Topeka.
Fortunately, the first lamb
out of the ewe lived. However,
the second was lodged sideways and died during the birthing process. A third lamb died
as well.

A fire on the roof of the
Garnett Food Mart was discovered by firemen Tuesday
evening as they returned from
another fire call. The fire was
extinguished within three to
four minutes after firemen
arrived at the store. Fire
Chief Gene Friesen called the
discovery of the fire almost
a miracle. If it had not been
controlled the fire would have
spread rapidly on the stores
tar paper roof and we would
have had another big downtown fire, he said.
100 years ago…
Last Friday afternoon, an
oil tank at Centerville caught
fire, by some means, which
the Review has been unable to
learn, and about 50,000 barrels
of oil was destroyed, the loss
amounting to over $100,000.
The tank and oil belonged to
Sinclair-Cudahy Company. A
dense smoke arose, and was
readily seen here and miles
beyond. Some parties living
northwest of Garnett, seeing
the smoke, thought Garnett
was afire, and telephoned in
for particulars. In the evening, the flames could readily
be seen a number of miles. It
is thought by some that the
oil was set afire, but nobody
appears to be able to give any
reason for it, so it must have
been an accident.

Bulldog wrestlers compete at 4A State competition
SALINA – The Anderson
County grapplers may not

year, with half of them winning at least one match over
the weekend.
Ashton Miller (113) won
his opening round match over

Lady Bulldogs score huge upset on the road
CARBONDALE – Santa Fe Trail
entered the game Wednesday
night boasting an 11-6 record,
despite losing their previous
two games, and the Anderson
County Bulldogs entered the
contest sporting a 5-13 record
but it would be AC that would
score the big upset, winning
the game 50-43.
SFT dug themselves into an
early hole, falling behind 18-13
after the first quarter but really stepped up defensively in
the second period allowing the
Bulldogs just 3 second quarter
points to cut the deficit to 21-19
at halftime.
The third quarter was
much like the first quarter as
Anderson County wasnt about
to relinquish their lead, outpacing SFT 17-12 in the period
before matching their opponent in the fourth to finish out
the win.
Gabby Spring scored all 6
of her points in the third to
give AC a little bit of breathing
room heading into the fourth.
In a win like this, there are
always several key plays by
numerous players.
Head coach Tommy Nichols
said, (Cali) Foltz played her
best game of the season to date
scoring 13 points.
(Adri) Pedrow played
solid defense and pitched in 11
(points), Nichols added.
Overall Nichols was happy
with the entire team defensively.
Great team defense,
Nichols said in reference to his
squads hustle on the evening,
picking up numerous blocks,
tip balls and rebounding.
A few key moments Nichols
made specific mention of were
a charge that Lexee Feuerborn
took at the end of the first half
to keep the momentum on the
Bulldogs side, a three-point
basket in the fourth quarter by
Emma Porter to stop a run by
SFT and was happy with the
poise Shylie Scheckel showed
by keeping the team together when it appeared SFT was
poised to make a run.
Foltz led all scorers with 13
points in the game.

and certain older residential sections the idea being
to encourage development in
those areas. But in August 2016
the city expanded the program
to include all of the city and got
USD 365 to go along with the
plan. County commissioners,
however, refused to adopt the
expansion.
Id like to see them on
board, said mayor pro-tem
Greg Gwin. They approved
Greeley, then turned right
around and shot us down.
Commissioners at the time
said they believed the focus
should be as originally intended, with an emphasis on developing areas of need, rather
than granting blanket rebates
for home construction which
might be in the citys more
affluent areas.
City clerk Kristie Kinney
said the program as been used
very seldom due to a lack of
applications among city residents or developers.
Fewer than a dozen new construction permits have been
issued in Garnett in the past 10
years.
City manager Chris Weiner
said the program was promoted
through the zoning department
and through the citys economic development division, but
he believed it could be better
marketed to hopefully entice
more interest.

Dynamite 4-H Club met in January & February
The Dynamite 4-H club met
on January 21, 2018, under
the direction of President
Abbie Weisner. Abbie led the
club in reciting the Pledge
of Allegiance. The secretary,
Nathan Wiles, took roll call by
asking each member to state
their favorite winter activity. 13 members, 7 parents, 2
leaders, and 1 guest were in
attendance. After roll call,
Nathan read the minutes of the
December 17th meeting. The
President approved the minutes with no corrections or
additions.
The meeting business started with reports from club officers and leaders. Treasurer,
Autumn Ewert, gave an
update on the clubs monthly income and expenses. All
balances were recorded and
approved. Club leader, Tanya
Ewert, noted some upcoming
events and dates. Blue and
Gold sales are due on February
12, and will be delivered the
week on February 27. Tanya
encouraged members by giving an award to any member
who is able to fill out their
order sheet. Fair book ads are
due on March, to the extension
office. 4-H County Club Days
is on February 24. The club
decided as a group to act out a
play, instead of a model meeting. The play practice will later
be determined. Council member, Matheu Egidy, informed
the club of an event that were
brought up at this months 4-H
council meeting. There will be
a T-shirt design contest, and
all designs are due to the extension office by March 12.
At the conclusion of the
meeting, the President passed
the gavel to the Vice President,
Claire Hasty, for quick runthrough of the play, which was
put in place of the presentation of talks and recreation.
After practicing the play,
the gavel was passed back
to the President. President
Weisner then announced that
the next meeting will be held
on February 18, 2018, at the
Greeley Fire Station.
After the announcements,
Gas prices continue to drop,
but spring increase expected
TOPEKA-Gas prices in Kansas
followed a national trend this
week, continuing their decline
of the past couple of weeks.
The average gas price across
Kansas is now $2.37/gallon,
which is two cents less than
one week ago. Motorists in the
Sunflower State and across
the country, however, should
not expect falling prices to
continue. AAA will announce
its quarterly gas price report
later this week, with indicators
pointing upward.
Lower demand for gasoline over the second half of
February has given us some
relief at the pumps, said
Shawn Steward, AAA Kansas
spokesman. Kansas still has
the 13th lowest gas prices in
the country, but it is
looking like we may
all need to prepare
to pay more soon.
The 10 Kansas
cities
regularly
highlighted by AAA
Kansas (see chart
below) showed a
mixed bag this will,
with seven cities
experiencing lower
gas prices. Lawrence
remained flat, while
Manhattan (+4 cents) and
Pittsburg (+1) rose. Leading
the price declines were Garden
City (-8) and Emporia and
Kansas City, Kan., which both
fell four cents per gallon.
According to AAA Kansas,
this weeks Kansas gas price
extremes are:
HIGH: Kensington (Smith
County) $2.80
LOW: Goddard (Sedgwick
County) $2.19
National Perspective
At $2.52, the national gas
price average is the cheapest
pump price seen this February.
The national gas price average
for the month of February is
$2.56, which is 29-cents more
expensive than the $2.28 aver-
6×10.5
State Wrestling
age of February 2017. On the
week, gas prices decreased 1
cent.
Gas prices continue to
trend cheaper for the majority of motorists as demand for
consumer gasoline declines
for a second week, said AAA
Kansas Steward. Even with
the small drop-off, demand
continues to register above 9
million b/d, which is a four
percent year-on-year increase,
according to the Energy
Information Administrations
latest report.
While cheaper gas prices are
welcomed by motorists, AAA
does not expect the trend to
continue.

Meeting on how to build a
habitat for Monarch butterflies
The Frontier Extension
District will be hosting a public
meeting on Building a Habitat
for Monarch Butterflies. This
meeting will take place on
March 8th, 2018 at Celebration
Hall, West 17th St, Ottawa, KS
located next to the fairgrounds,
starting at 6:30pm.
Sarah Zukoff, an assistant professor from K-States
Southwest Research and
Extension Center located in
Garden City, will be here to discuss Monarch behavior-migration, what plants do we plant to
build our habitat, and how to
keep pollinators around.
Whats prettier than a million butterflies migrating
south for the winter, or wondered about the impact they
have on our landscapes? Im
sure that you have heard the
horror stories about what will
happen if butterflies just disappeared. Well those horror
stories could become a reality if we dont do something,
and yes everyone can help.
You might be asking how can
I help; I dont have hundreds or
thousands of acres. While that
may be true, small scale restoration efforts will be crucial
to the success of the Monarch
Butterfly. Yes, large scale habitats will be needed but we have
to start somewhere. If you are
interested in learning how you
could make a difference come
to Celebration Hall, in Ottawa,
on March 8th at 6:30pm.
If you are in need of any
special
accommodations,
please contact Ryan Schaub

You Thought, and Wormers
for Stocker Cattle. Dr. Gregg
Hanzlicek, DVM, Kansas
State Veterinary Diagnostic
Laboratory and Jaymelynn
Farney, KSU Extension Beef
Systems Specialist will help us
get a better understanding of
these stocker health issues.
Immunization is probably
the most important part of having a healthy beef cattle herd.
However it is important to use
vaccines as they are intended and when they should be
given. Calves should get their
first round of shots at branding
time or at 2-3 months of age.
Another round of shots should
also be given 3-4 weeks prior to
weaning.
Remember a calfs health is
additive, as you use a vaccination protocol you are improving the calfs health and adding
value. Vaccines are not a magic
potent in a bottle, we must
handle cattle in a low stress
method, handle the vaccines
correctly, and reduce stressors
like weaning, transportation,
commingling, and weather
changes near vaccination time
to increase our success.
Please mark your calendars and plan to attend this
educational evening. If you

BBB Study: Online Romance
Scams costing millions
A study at www.us.bbb.org/
romancescamstudy released
by the Better Business Bureau
(BBB) reveals an estimated 1 million Americans have been victimized in romance fraud scams
with losses nearing $1 billion
over the last three years. BBB
warns those who use dating websites to be wary of scammers who
prey on unsuspecting victims.
The study Online Romance
Scams: A Better Business
Bureau Study on How Scammers
Use Impersonation, Blackmail
and Trickery to Steal from
Unsuspecting Daters says the
scheme can take a number of
months to play out as the scammer gains the victims trust. The
scammer eventually will ask for
small amounts of money to feel
out the victim. Victims often
turn into unknowing accomplices of money laundering.
Among the reports key findings:
There is no typical victim
of romance fraud. They can be
male or female, young or old,
straight or gay. The common
denominator is that they are
seeking a loving relationship,
and they believe they have found
it.
Scammers often portray
themselves as U.S. military members. Military officials say they
receive thousands of complaints
yearly from scam victims around
the world. Officials note military
members will never need money
for leave or health care.
The majority of romance
fraud has its home in West
Africa, particularly Nigeria.
There also are groups that operate in Russia and the Ukraine
that employ online dating sites to
defraud victims.
At any one time, there may
be 25,000 scammers online working with victims. A company
that screens profiles for dating
companies told BBB that 500,000
of the 3.5 million profiles it scans
monthly are fake.
The report was prepared by C.
Steven Baker, BBB International
Investigations Specialist. Baker
is the retired director of the
Federal Trade Commissions
Midwest Region.
In his role with BBB, Baker
is working with an alliance of
five BBBs, including the Omaha
office, in analyzing and reporting on some of the most pervasive fraud issues that impact
American consumers. This is
his third study released through
BBB. A September 2017 study on
puppy scams and a December
2017 study on tech support scams
he authored each was met with
worldwide media coverage.
BBB offers the following tips

for daters to avoid being caught
in a romance scam:
Protect your identity and
your wallet. Scammers prefer
prepaid cards and money transfers. Never send money or any
personal information to someone youve never met in person.
Visiting with someone via a
video call doesnt mean theyre
not a scammer. Also, be cautious
to not reveal any personal information or do anything you might
regret later when using video
applications. Some scammers
use software to record video calls
and then use it to extort money
from victims. Dont succumb to
pleas of a financial crisis.
Think before going from
public to private. Be hesitant if
the conversation moves from a
monitored site like social media
or a dating site to a more private form of communication like
email or instant messaging. This
strategy might be a way for the
scammer to draw you in without
other people interfering.
Do your research. Pour over
the profile image and description. If it sounds too good to be
true, verify it. You can perform
a reverse image search to see if
the profile photo has been used
on other websites. You can also
copy a portion of their biography
and search to see if its been used
on other sites. Scammers often
use the same profile details and
photos on multiple sites.
Ask for details and get specific. Request other forms of identification, like a photo of them
holding a piece of paper with
their username on it. Ask specific questions about details in
their profile. If they claim to be
a military member, ask for their
official military address as those
all end in @mail.mil. Scammers
likely will make excuses for why
they cant provide you more
information.
Pay attention to communication. Be wary of bad grammar
and misspelled words. No one
is perfect, but if mistakes often
are repeated, it may suggest they
arent from where they claim. Be
on guard for use of pet names or
discussions of marriage early in
correspondence.
Report it. If you feel like
youve been victimized, report
it to BBBs ScamTracker, the
Federal Trade Commission and
FBI.
Get the job done right!
