Water rate hike to
highlight tonights
Garnett city meeting
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City commissioners will take up a water
rate discussion at tonights
commission meeting aimed
at determining rate increases the city says it needs to
pay for construction of a new
$13 million water treatment
facility.
The plan for the water
plant congealed recently
after confusion as to what
features the plant would
include and what those eventual costs would be. After a
meeting earlier this month
of engineers from different
firms and city officials, commissioners embraced a final
plan much like the original
one proposed by Professional
Garnett and Richmond/Franklin County firefighters fought a
house fire in bitter cold north of Richmond on Wednesday in
which the family was away at the time of the blaze. Another fire in

Westphalia last week helped illustrate the value in closing doors
if possible in a burning house, and in sleeping with doors closed
to provide extra protection from heat and smoke if a fire erupts.
Three words for surviving fire:
Close the door
Westphalia homeowners
action highlights a standard
tactic for surviving a fire
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Last weeks bitter cold saw
local firefighters take on two house fires,
and Anderson County Fire Coordinator
Mick Brinkmeyer said quick action by
one of them probably saved the home.
Brinkmeyer said county firemen
aided by other units from Coffey County
responded to a Thursday afternoon fire
in Westphalia at 301 Lincoln Street and
arrived to find a bedroom fully engulfed
in flames. But actions by the homeowner
probably saved the house, Brinkmeyer
said.
Due to the homeowners prompt
action of closing the bedroom door before
leaving the house, fire damage was contained to the bedroom, Brinkmeyer
said, although smoke and water damage occurred throughout the residence.
Brinkmeyer said the cause was believed
to be incendiary with no criminal intent,
and that it was being investigated by the
Cole proposes strategy
session with stakeholders
GARNETT The citys new
mayor hopes to work with
county commissioners and
school leaders this year in a
strategic planning exercise
to help direct common goals
shared by the county and by
its largest municipality.
Jody Cole brought up the
topic during the citys recent
commission meeting in opening comments after recently
taking over the role of mayor.
Cole said she saw the size
and scope of challenges were
such that they need an organized effort from all facets of
the community.
I am pushing to get at least
an annual meeting where city,
county, school district, hospital and business people get
together and share their strategic goals and comprehensive
plans to see
where
we
might overlap and work
together to
accomplish
greater projects for our
community, Cole told
Cole the Review
last week.
Garnett has some great
opportunities but if everyone
continues to go solo we will
struggle to move forward as a
community.
Cole said she looked forSEE COLE ON PAGE 2A
Kansas Fire Marshals office.
Underwriters Laboratories says closed
doors help retard active fire by limiting available oxygen. The agency recommends sleeping with bedroom doors
closed as well, since a closed door acts as
a partial barrier against heat and smoke
when a fire breaks out and gives the person sleeping within extra time to make an
escape before being overcome.
Garnett fire units responded as well
to assist Richmond and Franklin County
firemen in a Wednesday fire about five
miles north of Richmond. No one was at
home at the time.

City manager Chris
Weiner initially estimated
the citys water rates would
need to double across the
board in order to pay for
bond debt on the project and
that might not even cover
it, Weiner said, because
high volume users like East
Kansas Agri Energy, citys
biggest water customer, and
other rural water districts
might not sit still for a doubling of their rates if they had
any other options.

New commissioner wants city code review
Update needed so
city complies with its
own rules, Huss says
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The citys newly-elected commissioner says
she hopes to inspire a comprehensive review of city codes to
be sure city management is following the procedures they set
forth, and to revise and update
those mandates if theyre no
longer useful.
Brigitte Brecheisen-Huss
told fellow commissioners at
the recent city meeting shed
reviewed a number of those
codes since her election in
November, and shed determined the city wasnt in com-
pliance with several of them,
such as hiring or appointing
a number of city department
heads
for
two-year
terms subject
to
review and
reappointment.
So
far
as I can see
thats someHuss
thing that
were bound
to do, Huss
said. She also said her reading
of the codes seemed to detail
the creation of various city
departments to city commissioners, and that overall some
of the codes seemed originally designed to make the citys
system more accountable to
commissioners and the public.
I think its good for the public to have that check on people, Huss said.
Huss comments echoed discoveries made by city manager Chris Weiner, who took
over his post in July, who also
said city commissioners and
management had gravitated
away over the years from a
number of precepts set forth in
the citys code and its charter.
In particular, while working
on the citys 2018 budget last
summer, Weiner noted the
citys violation of its own 1968
charter ordinance that limits
dispersal of money from the
utility fund to 10 percent of its
revenues annually.
That point was accented
toward the end of the budgeting process last fall, when
Weiner noted that budget line
items were funded by utili-
ty revenues instead of being
grouped in their own departments accounting. Weiner
maintained not only was that
method at odds with the charter ordinance, it also made it
harder to analyze true costs of
operating each department on
an individual basis.
In other business from the
citys regular meeting:
Mayor Jody Cole recognized city staff for terms of
service, including Colette
McDonnell for 40 years in
city administration, Mike
Kaufman 15 years in the cemetery and parks department,
and Jason Wettstein for 10
years as assistant street superintendent.

was underway and would be
part of the new rate discussion.
Weiner said he expected that
analysis to be complete in time
for tonights city commission
meeting.
In my opinion wed be better served to increase rates as
soon as possible to start building funds, Weiner told commissioners. Design work for the
plant was expected to take 8-12
months, he said.
Commissioner
Brigitte
Brecheisen-Huss questioned
the idea of moving ahead with
the project until a financial
plan to pay for it was laid out.
She reiterated previous com-
$16,900
ments that the financing should
be looked at on a 30-40 year
payback in order to minimize
the required rate increase on
residential customers, instead
of a 20-year plan initially considered.
Though questions about
financing have surrounded the
project, city officials and engineers agree that something has
to be done with the plant, parts
of which date to the early 1900s
and within which degradation
to a settling basin could force
a water emergency in the city
if old concrete used in the construction should collapse.

ward to involving area high
school students in the process
as well.
The comments came after
a recent session with county
commissioners in which both
bodies hammered out a new
course for their joint-funded
economic development agency,
opting to add another $10,000
apiece to their $40,000 commitment in order to staff a director there and keep those efforts
separate from the private organization of the Garnett Area
Chamber of Commerce.
Garnett, Anderson County
and other stakeholders in the
county have not engaged a community-wide economic strategy and planning effort since a
meeting held in 1989 and led
by CityMark, a community and
leadership development firm

Richmond UMW now
has two food pantries
The single Food Pantry mentioned in the Richmond UMW
story last week has expanded
and now there are two both
outside and inside storage
units.
The one outside is replenished as needed several times
weekly with non-perishable
food, toiletries and other items.
It is easily found outside
the churchs front door and
is for those in the community
who need assistance. A poster
inside the pantry asks users to
take only what they need and
leave the rest for others.
The inside pantry will store
items to be transferred outside,
and is also for visitors who
come into the building and
need help of various kinds,
which happens occasionally.
Arlen and Mary Hall, with
help from Mark Schlenker,
have prepared and organized
the pantries and others are contributing to keep them filled as
needed.
The need for such a program
as Food Pantries had been discussed for several years, but
has finally now materialized,
thanks to the perseverance of a
few people.

Wildland fire risk is
above normal in central,
southern Plains
MANHATTAN, Kan. The
central and southern Plains,
including much of Texas,
Oklahoma and Kansas have a
higher than usual potential of
wildland fire through April,
according to Kansas State
University scientists and a
government organization that
assesses such risks.
In its latest report,
the National Interagency
Coordination Center shows an
elevated risk because of dry
conditions in several states.
The center is comprised of
representatives from the
Bureau of Land Management,
Bureau of Indian Affairs,
National Park Service, Forest
Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, Federal Emergency
Management Administration,
and the National Association of
State Foresters.
The report, the National
Significant Wildland Fire
Potential Outlook provides an
assessment of current weather
and fuel conditions and how
they will evolve in the coming
months in order to assist fire
managers in making decisions
that will improve protection
of life, property and natural
resources, increase fire fighter
safety and effectiveness, and
reduce firefighting costs.
For the months of February
through April in Kansas, the
outlook highlights all but the
northeast part of the state as
having above-normal significant large fire potential that
would require the mobilization
of resources beyond the typical
local response.
Some parts of Kansas,
especially the south central
and southwest areas, saw
above-normal moisture during
the growing season, with many
reports of large to significant
fuel loads as a result, said Chip
Redmond, meteorologist with
the K-State Mesonet and an
incident meteorologist. Areas
west of US-81 have seen considerable drying the previous
months with many locations
exceeding 90 days without a
wetting rain. This, combined
with persistent dry air masses,
sunny skies, and breezy winds,
are rapidly depleting any remnant moisture.
While thats not unusual for
this time of year, he said, any
deficit developed will be difficult to overcome without a
period of above-normal moisture between now and March.
With recent forecasts of
mid-to-long range dryness
continuing, we are setting the
stage for some large fires in
Kansas with heavy fuel loading and flash-type drought,
Redmond said.
Precipitation
received
during the crop growing season, April to September, is
a determining factor for the
upcoming fire season. In 2015
and 2016, above-normal precipitation was received which
encouraged plant growth which
then contributed to large fires
the following winters. Despite
a marginally drier period in
2017, the timing of above-normal moisture received in April
and May was critical for supplying ample grass and fuel
growth.
This increased fuel load
(plant growth) is a large concern for the next few months
which are typically the driest
period of the year for Kansas.
With any strong system, the
potential exists for large fires
similar to what we have seen
the last two years, said Jason
Hartman, the statewide Fire
Protection Specialist with the
Kansas Forest Service.
Current and Future Weather
Much of Kansas began to dry
out this past September. Areas
of western Kansas havent
received 0.1 inch of rain in more
than 90 days. Above-normal
temperatures in November and
early December combined with
gusty winds dried the soil surface. As a result, drought conditions are expanding across
much of Kansas. According to
the Drought Monitor at www.
droughtmonitor.unl.edu, the
condition of the entire state
ranges from abnormally dry to
severe drought.
Long-term forecasts suggest
the dry period will continue
through January, especially
in western Kansas. Conditions
may be aided somewhat by
slightly below normal temperatures the rest of the month.
Beyond January, trends are
more difficult to discern, said
assistant climatologist, Mary
Knapp. The February through
March period is typically very
dry in Kansas, averaging only
3.1 inches of total precipitation statewide. Any precipitation that does occur will only
have short-term impacts on the
dried out fuels until the arrival
of spring rains.
The biggest concern during
the next few months, said
Knapp, will be the occurrence
of very warm days. These are
typically associated with very
dry air and high winds in
advance of a strong storm system. Kansas largest wildfires
are usually dependent on the
shifting winds and the lack of
moisture associated with these
systems. Normally, Kansas
will see several of these systems before one can eventually
tap into the Gulf moisture and
provide much needed rainfall.
Finally, the influence of
precipitation type on wildland
fires is important, she said.
Snowfall can knock down or
flatten standing grasses, which
removes the vertical fuel load
and can significantly decrease
fire behavior. Despite some
recent snows, a lack of heavy
snowfall through January will
continue to make grasses available and lead to suppression
difficulties until a significant
snowfall occurs.

REMEMBRANCES
Common tax mistakes to avoid in 2018
(BPT) – Life changes – getting
married, having a baby, buying
or selling a home, sending a
child off to college or retiring
– often come with changes to
your tax situation. Overlooking
these changes when filing
your taxes can lead taxpayers
to make mistakes that leave
money on the table, potentially impacting their refund at a
time when the average refund
is about $2,800. Here is a list
of common tax mistakes to
avoid in the 2018 filing season
to help ensure you dont miss
any deductions or credits that
you deserve.
Using the correct filing status
One of the most common
mistakes taxpayers make is
selecting the wrong filing status. A taxpayers filing status
can affect which credits and
deductions theyre eligible
for, the value of their standard deduction and their tax
bracket. One situation that can
make choosing a filing status
difficult is when more than
one filing status seems to fit.
For example, if a taxpayer with
children is in the process of getting a divorce, they may not be
sure if they should file as married filing jointly or married
filing separately or, in some
instances, whether they qualify
to file as head of household. In
this case, the taxpayers should
run the numbers to see if filing
jointly or separately is more
to their advantage rather than
guessing.
In addition, common clerical errors such as mixing up
names, forgetting to include
information reported on your
W-2, 1099 or other forms, or
even making mathematical
errors can also affect your tax
benefits.
Commonly overlooked credits
and deductions
Most taxpayers file their
taxes using the standard deduction, but you may be eligible
for a variety of itemized deductions that could possibly save
you more. Also, you may be
eligible for above-the-line
deductions and tax credits,
none of which require you to
itemize. And its important
to note that the newly passed
tax reform generally does not
impact these credits or deductions until you file your 2018
tax return in 2019.
Earned Income Tax Credit for
lower-income workers:
Twenty percent of eligible
taxpayers, particularly lower-income workers, do not
claim the Earned Income Tax
Credit (EITC). Depending on
their income and the number of
children they have, these taxpayers may be eligible for an
EITC of $503 to $6,242. Since eligibility can fluctuate based on
financial, marital and parental
status, taxpayers can be ineligible one year and eligible the
next.
Under the PATH Act, taxpayers who claim the EITC and
who file early will have their
refunds delayed until mid-February. Despite the delay, taxpayers should file as they normally would to get their refund
as soon as possible.
Education credits:
Depending on your academic program, what year the student is in, income and other
restrictions, there are federal
tax credits that can help offset
the costs of higher education
for yourself or your dependents. To qualify, you must pay
for post-secondary tuition and
fees for yourself, your spouse
ANDERSON
or your dependent. Depending
on the criteria, a student may
use the American Opportunity
Credit of up to $2,500 or the
Lifetime Learning Credit of up
to $2,000.
Itemizing deductions:
Itemizing can save taxpayers hundreds of dollars, as only
one third of taxpayers itemize
but millions more should – especially homeowners. Owning
a home is often the key that
unlocks itemization, but some
taxpayers with high state taxes
and charitable contributions
may also be able to itemize.
Itemizing enables eligible
taxpayers to take deductions
such as:
* Charitable donations
* Medical expenses that
exceed 7.5 percent of adjusted
gross income
* Personal property taxes
* State income or sales taxes
* Casualty losses such as a
fire, hurricane or earthquake
* Mortgage interest payments
Not filing
On average, the IRS announces annually that approximately
$1 billion goes unclaimed in federal tax refunds. Taxpayers can
claim a refund for up to three
years after the filing deadline.
So, in addition to filing your
2017 return, keep in mind to file
your 2015 return by April 17,
2018. If not, you will lose your
2015 refund. There is no late-filing penalty if a taxpayer is due
a refund. Also, even if you are
not required to file a return,
you may be entitled to a refund.

OPINION
Kansas Republicans, farmers need hemp bill
So far, Republicans who run the Kansas
Senate havent come up with a good explanation as to why they want to keep Kansas farmers from making money with a state industrial
hemp crop.
This legislative session, its time to stop dilly-dallying and pass a bill to legally grow and
process industrial hemp in Kansas.
House Bill 2182, from 38th Dist. Rep. Willie
Dove of Bonner Springs, would have opened
up the industry for Kansas farmers last session. It would have opened an industry already
embraced by 34 other
states whose farmers

hemp.
Now, Kerschen has
forwarded his own
bill, SB 263, which
would ship the potential for hemp off to K-State for research
before any steps are taken to legalize it another way to effectively kill the crop for years or
maybe decades and keep it from benefiting the
states farmers now, when they really need it.
The opposition has been obscure. Industrial
hemp isnt pot you can smoke a whole bale
of it and never get high. Its a different genetic animal than marijuana, as 34 states have
already realized to their own profit. But lobbyists for Kansas law enforcement believe theyll
have too much trouble distinguishing industrial hemp plants from marijuana even though
law officers in 34 other states seem to have no
trouble with that.
What industrial hemp does do is serve a burgeoning market in the U.S. and abroad. Health
foods, organic body care, clothing, construction materials, biofuels, plastic composites
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
the list goes on. Hemp products pulled down a
cool $688 million in sales in 2016 all of which
went to producers and processors in places
other than Kansas. True you can buy hemp
products in Kansas and send your dollars out
of state you just cant grow it here.
And theres rarely been a time other than
now when Kansas farmers needed more
options for another cash crop. Prices for corn,
wheat and soybeans lag in a nationwide glut of
commodities, with farmers forced to acquire
more land and more costs to plant, or pray for
better weather to increase yields. Theres no
doubt Kansas Farmers need the hemp option.
And Republicans in the Kansas Legislature
need it too. Theyre already carrying a damaged brand into the 2018 elections due to school
funding mandates from the state supreme court
and lagging tax revenues from a Brownback
economic plan that went bust. Republicans
desperately need an economic win, and legalizing industrial hemp with its immediate economic impact would illustrate that the party is
still in touch with its pro-business platform.
With an improving national economy and
the new 2018 federal tax package, investors
will be itching to put their money to use in
businesses that offer solid returns. Passage
of industrial hemp would clear the way for
those investors to put their money to work in
Kansas-based processing operations as well as
family farms. It is an economic wave Kansans,
particularly Republican leadership, cant pass
up.
Get out of the way, Kansas GOP, and let our
farmers and businesses make money on industrial hemp.

Now some people may think I have a dirty mind,

I have found homes for 60 cats and my friends
have found homes for 10. And yes they came off

Hi, I just wanted to say I think its very nice of
our local chamber of commerce to do the business of the year and the other awards every year.
Its nice that people can be recognized for what
they do and the work that they do in our community. Instead of just negativity all the time I
think its great that our friends and neighbors
can be recognized for doing good. Be sure to

I think the law maker, the law enforcers, the lawyers should all go back and read the ordinance
for the City of Garnett about feeding stray dogs
and cats.

Sorting out the best of the immigration s***storm
The world fell on Donald Trumps head
— yet again — when he said in a White House
meeting that we should be trying to get immigrants from Norway rather than s***hole
countries in the Third World.
The media has treated Trumps remarks,
made in a heated exchange with senators over
a proposed immigration deal, as an explicit confession of racism. Why else would he
scorn immigrants from places like Haiti and
Somalia, while yearning for those from lilywhite Scandinavia?
He was almost surely trying to say that we
should pick immigrants for skills (he reportedly mentioned Asia as well as Norway), but
typically stated his position in the crudest
terms possible.
The ensuing controversy has created a
cottage industry of TV and newspaper commentators declaring proudly that they came
from s***hole countries, and implying that as
long as we are welcoming enough people from
distressed countries, our immigration policy
is on track.
This discussion is largely informed by a
romantic view of the experience of the early
20th century, which is, unsurprisingly, not
applicable 100 years later. The economy has
changed. We no longer can toss low-skilled
immigrants into the maw of an insatiable
manufacturing sector. The fact is that immigrants from rich countries tend to do better
here than immigrants from poor countries,
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
and level of education is a key factor.
According to the Migration Policy Institute,
nearly half of Asian immigrants are employed
in management, business, science or the arts,
higher than the proportion of the native born.
The median income of households headed by
Asian immigrants is $70,000, higher than that
of the native born.
The median income of a household headed
by an Indian immigrant is an astonishing
$105,000. This is largely because their level of
education is off the charts. Three-quarters of
Indian immigrants have a college degree or
more. The Indian immigrants dont reflect the
norm back home, where the average person
has less than six years of schooling, but we
are skimming off a more skilled element of the
population.
Critics of Trumps comments rightly point
out that immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa,
reportedly part of the s***hole argument, are
doing pretty well here. But it depends on the
country. About 60 percent of Nigerian immigrants have a college degree, and more than
50 percent work in management positions. In
contrast, only 11 percent of Somalis have a
college degree, and half are in poverty.
The numbers for immigrants from El
Salvador, to pick a country also reportedly part of the White House discussion, are
less encouraging. According to the Center
for Immigration Studies, more than half of
Salvadoran immigrants dont have a highschool degree, and half are living in poverty
or near it. This doesnt mean they dont work
hard, or deserve to be insulted, but they are
struggling.
We are blessed to live in a country that
many millions around the world want to
move to. This affords us the luxury to be
more selective in our immigration policy and,
like Canada or Australia, establish a system
emphasizing skills suited to a 21st-century
economy. Some might be from Norway, some
might be from s***holes — all should be prepared to thrive.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.
Bright spots sparce as legislative session begins
OK, the session is now nearly a couple
weeks old and the best news that can be reported by anyone who wanders the Statehouse for
a living is that there have been no injuries.
The governors budget? Even the simple descriptions of it are political. Many
Republicans are still fuming that the governor
proposes to spend too much money, meaning
tax increases are ahead, if not this session just
before a new governor is elected, then the session after. Democrats are at least positive on
Gov. Sam Brownbacks five-year, $600 million
increase in K-12 funding, but not much else so
far.
And Kansas House members who are seeking reelection, and those who want to unseat
them, generally are cautious. The total dollar
figure for K-12 sounds about right, but over
five years? Any chance the Kansas Supreme
Court which declared last sessions K-12 plan
unconstitutional will go for a five-year fix?
Nobody, at least nobody who wears a black
robe to work, is saying
Probably one of the better pieces of news
is that the outgoing (either this spring to a
federal job, or at his term end) governor is
planning to payyes, use real money, not
a financing gimmick$18.1 million in the
rest of this fiscal year and $30.8 million in
the upcoming fiscal year for the states share
of the Kansas Public Employees Retirement
System (KPERS) contributions for teachers.
The states pension plan, recall, has been
mostly refinanced, pushing contributions into
the future like you do if you refinance your
home.
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
Another bright spot? Brownback plans to
boost the budget for Statehouse operations
by $200,000 so that public (and other) interest
groups wont have to pay up to $500 to hold a
gathering under the dome to talk to their lawmakers. (Although for a few groups that hold
Statehouse rallies, were figuring a two-drink
minimum would have covered those now-cancelled fee hikes.)
Butthe bright spots are relatively sparse.
While the House Appropriations and Senate
Ways and Means committees parse each line
item of the governors budget, which projects
surpluses (yes, cash in the bank after the bills
are paid) of $266 million on June 30 and $150
million the following year, few believe the
fiscal year will end with that much cash.
In fact, the only new expenditure in the
budget that appears to be virtually assured
is a relatively cheap ($8 million this year and
next) remake of the states programs for the
roughly 7,000 children who are the responsibility of the state, who have been removed
from their parents homes for their safety.
That provision increases investigative staff
at the Kansas Department for Children and
Families so that we can locate the kids who
leave their foster care homes or their adoptive
parents, allocates $1.5 million for additional
staffers to ensure those childrens welfare,
and provides new emergency shelter for those
children so they dont wind up sleeping in
offices of child-care contractors.
Anyone against that? No hands held up.
And, it is Lt. Gov. who hopes to grow up to be
Governor Jeff Colyer who is the owner of that
child welfare provision, both as a government
executive and a Republican candidate for governor.
What else is assured from Brownbacks
$6.923 billion budget for this year and $6.899
billion budget for the upcoming fiscal year?
Not much.
So, the Legislature is up and running, in
the first few weeks of dissecting the budget,
seeing what the state can afford and cant
afford and just how political parties in general
and voters in specific will like or dislike the
lawmakers as they vote in August and again
in November.
Well see how this works out

Three Anderson County
teens who pled no contest to
charges of aggravated kidnapping stemming from a May
2008 shooting incident that paralyzed another area teen were
sentenced to some 13 years in
prison in district court yesterday. Eric Swanson, Kincaid,
and William Thompson and
Jacob Lucas, both of Garnett,
heard their sentences of 155
months in prison with time off
for the jail time theyd done
since May. The courtroom was
packed, with testimony from
the victim, family members and
friends, and eventually each of
the teens were sentenced. Each
requested a lighter sentence.
Each was denied.

LOCAL
Bulldogs finish 3rd in Baldwin Invitational Lady Vikings winless
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
BALDWIN – Anderson County
continues their recent success
by winning two close games
sandwiched around a blowout
loss to Bonner Springs.
In the opening round game
against KC Harmon, the
Bulldogs won 64-61 after entering the fourth quarter tied.
It was a tight knit battle all
night, the teams were knotted
at 19 after the first quarter.
The Bulldogs held a slim
35-33 lead at intermission.
Anderson County had a trio
of players finish in double figures.
Allnutt ended the night
with 21 points, Rockers and
Powelson each chipped in with
15 points.
The second round of the tournament on Friday was a much
different story for Anderson
County.
The Bulldogs were completely overmatched against the #4
ranked team in 4A-Division 1,
Bonner Springs.
Bonner Springs won easily
74-33.
It was an offensive explosion in the first half for Bonner
Springs as they led 22-9 after
the first and 49-18 at halftime.
Coming out of the locker
room, things didnt get any
better for Anderson County.
Bonner Springs controlled the
third quarter 17-6 to open up
a 42-point advantage heading
into the fourth.
On Saturday, AC bounced
back with a much needed 59-57
victory over Wellsville to finish
3rd.
Anderson County led 16-14
after the first and held that
slim two-point lead at intermission.
Following halftime, the
Bulldogs played their best
quarter of the night and outscored Wellsville 18-11 to head
into the fourth quarter up 9.
Wellsville didnt go down
without a fight though and battled back with 20 points in the
fourth quarter but still came up
just short.
It was a balanced effort from
Anderson County. Allnutt and
Rockers had 12 points, Kueser
added 10 points and Spencer
and Rundle chipped in with 9
and 8 points respectively.

Crest boys finish Dubray Tourney with blowout win
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
LIBERAL, MO – It wasnt the
start to the tournament the
Lancers were hoping for in the
Tony Dubray Tournament as
they lost handily in their opening two games before winning
big on Sunday to finish 7th.
Thomas Jefferson raced past
Crest in the opening round
70-36.
The Lancers held close in
the first trailing just 16-11 after
the quarter.
The second quarter though
was when the Lancers completely fell apart. Crest was
outmanned 28-4 in the period.
The third quarter wasnt
quite the 2nd quarter disaster but Thomas Jefferson outscored Crest 19-11 to put the
Lancers down by 37 heading
into the fourth quarter.
Hayden Hermreck led the
Lancers with 17 points on the
night.
Defensively we gave up
straight line drives, didnt help
well and didnt close out on
shooters, head coach Travis
Hermreck stated when talking
about the disappointing game.
Not doing one of those
things will get you beat by a
good team, but not doing any of
them will get you embarrassed
which was the case tonight,
Hermreck added.
Hermreck wasnt pleased
with the offensive effort either
for his Lancers.
Offensively, we turned the
ball over and didnt execute,
Hermreck said. When we did
have men open we either didnt
get the ball to them or were late
getting the ball to them.
Not exactly a winning formula, Hermreck added.
The second round game
didnt go well either for the
Lancers as they lost 54-38 to
Northeast Arma.
We got off to a sluggish start
and they took advantage of that
and got out to an early sizeable
lead, Hermreck stated following the Lancers second round
loss.
With 3 starters on the bench
in the second quarter due to
foul trouble, it was up to the
underclassmen to keep the
Lancers around.
We made a nice run in the
3rd quarter getting the lead
Crest girls salvage 7th
LIBERAL, MO – Crest won the
last game against Golden City
on Sunday to finish 7th at the
Tony Dubray Tournament in
Liberal, Missouri.
The Lancers were overmatched in their opening round
game against Lockwood from
Missouri, 57-33.
Lockwood raced out to a 29-15
lead at intermission and continued to control the game in the
third with a 17-8 advantage.
Crest was led by Godderz
with 10 points. Strickler added
6 points and 7 rebounds.
The Lady Lancers fell just
short in their second round
matchup with NE-Arma.
The two teams were tied at 8
after the first before NE-Arma
clamped down defensively in
the second to take an 18-12 lead
at intermission.
The Lancers came out of
intermission by controlling the
third quarter, 16-7, giving them
a 28-25 lead heading into the
fourth.
Unfortunately for Crest,
NE-Arma battled back to tie the
game in the fourth before pulling out the win in overtime.
Armstrong led the way for
the Lancers with 15 points and
3 rebounds. Strickler tacked on
11 points and 6 rebounds on the
night.
To close out the tournament,
Crest got a much needed win
over Golden City 36-26 to finish
7th.
The Lancers led by 6 at intermission, 22-16 and after limiting
Golden City to just 2 points in
the third quarter they opened
up a 31-18 lead heading into the
fourth.

Lockwood – No individual scoring

Northeast
rebounded
though with a run of their own
to close out the third and open
the fourth to take control of the
game again.
Hermreck said, We had
some stretches where we
played pretty well, but we just
werent able to maintain.
With all the frustration
of the first two games, the
Lancers were ready to come
out in the final game to turn
things around.
Crest cruised to a 71-27 victory over Bronaugh to finish in
7th.
I think we took a lot of our
frustrations from the previous
two games out on Bronaugh,
Hermreck said.
We had more bounce in our
step and seemed to play much
more relaxed. I wasnt sure
how we would respond after
sitting around Friday before
playing the late game and getting home after midnight. Then
we had to get right back up on
the road early Saturday morning, Hermreck added.
I was pleasantly surprised
with how ready to play we
were. Hopefully this win will
kickstart a nice run for us.
Coach Hermreck said.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
The Vikings had to feel pretty confident coming into the
game as they manhandled West
Franklin just a couple of weeks
ago 35-15.
It was nearly a complete 180
though this time around as it
was West Franklin that dominated all four quarters and won
handily 54-27.
West Franklin completely
dominated the first and fourth
quarters by a combined 31-12.
The only Viking that
amassed more than 4 points on
the night was Stockard, who
finished with 12 points.
EMPORIA – The Central Heights
Lady Vikings entered the Flint
Hills league tournament with
the seventh seed but struggled
at some point in the first half
of all three games which went
a long way into them losing all
three of their games.
In their opener last
Wednesday,
the
Vikings
squared off with second seeded
Mission Valley and after a hard
fought game they came up short
losing 47-36.
The Vikings battled hard
early and trailed just 6-5 heading into the second period.
Mission Valley started to
impose their will slightly in the
second quarter and jumped out
to a 21-14 halftime advantage.
Mission Valley added to their
lead coming out of halftime,
leading by 11 heading into the
fourth quarter.
Clancy led all scorers in the
game with 16 points.
In the Vikings second round
game on Friday, they came out
flat and scored just 2 points in
the first quarter on their way to
a 35-27 loss to fifth seeded Osage
City.
Central Heights bounced
back in the second knocking
four points off the lead making
the halftime score 21-14.
The second half was a competitive back and forth battle,
but the Vikings just couldnt
make a run.
Hettinger led the Vikings
with 11 points.
SIxth seeded West Franklin
was the Lady Vikings next
opponent in the seventh place
game on Saturday.

Lady Bulldogs cant keep
pace with Wellsville
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WELLSVILLE – The Bulldogs
were completely over matched
last Thursday in a 61-35 loss at
Wellsville.
Wellsville controlled the
game from the opening tip and
led 15-8 after the first before
really picking up the intensity
in the second and stretching
their lead to 40-16 at intermission.
With the game well out of
reach, the second half was
much more competitive.
Wellsville outscored Anderson
County by just one in each of
the third and fourth periods to
close out the victory.
Schmidt led the Lady
Bulldogs with 11 points.

Viking boys finish 6th in
Flint Hill Tournament
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
EMPORIA – The seventh seeded Central Heights Viking
boys opened up the Flint Hill
league basketball tournament
at Emporia last Monday with a
near upset of the #2 seed Osage
City, but fell just short in a
50-48 loss.
The Vikings jumped up
quickly on the higher seeded
squad with a 12-6 advantage
in the first en route to a 25-21
halftime lead.
It was a tight battle throughout as Osage City pecked away
at the lead all night. Heading
into the fourth the Vikings
still held a slim one-point lead,
38-37.
The upset attempt fell just
short with Osage City outscoring the Vikings 13-10 in the
fourth quarter.
K. Brotherton led the way
for the VIkings with 18 points
on 8-11 shooting, 7 rebounds
and 4 steals on the evening.
The Vikings would ride the
momentum of the first round,
despite the defeat, Thursday
night as they knocked off sixth
seeded Northern Heights 64-55.
It was another tight battle early
on. Northern Heights was up
one after the first and tacked
on a couple more to their lead
in the second and led 32-29 at
intermission.
It was the Vikings that
would mount the comeback in
the second half this time.
Central Heights controlled
the third quarter by outpacing
Northern Heights 18-10 to take
a 5-point lead into the fourth
quarter.
It was a lead the Vikings
wouldnt relinquish this time
by tacking on 4 more points to
their lead in the final quarter.
Cubit led four Viking players in double figures with 15
points. Burroughs added 11
points and both Meyer and
Sommer scored 10 on the night.
The momentum of the
first two nights was quickly
squashed in the fifth place
game last Saturday.
Fourth-seeded
West
Franklin jumped out to a dominating 26-2 lead in the first
quarter and stretched their
lead out to 33 at halftime, 40-7,
on their way to a 55-39 victory.
Despite being completely overwhelmed early, the
Vikings did come out after
halftime with an extra sense of
motivation.
Facing an uphill battle,
the Vikings outscored West
Franklin 33-15 in the second
half to salvage a little bit of the
night.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, January 23, 2018
Understand the difference
between happiness and pleasure
In Isaiah 5:16 we read concerning God, But the LORD
of hosts is exalted in justice,
and the Holy God shows himself holy in righteousness.
This is quite a contrast to
what we read concerning
man in Romans 3:10-11.
None is righteous, no, not
one ; no one understands; no
one seeks God.
Dr. R.C. Sproul addresses this in his book The
Holiness of God when he
states. The struggle we
have with a holy God is
rooted in the conflict between
Gods righteousness and our
(mans) unrighteousness. He
(God) is just and we are unjust.
This tension creates, fear,
hostility and anger within us
toward God. The unjust person
does not desire the company of
a just judge. We become fugitives from the presence of One
whose glory can blind us and
whose justice can condemn us.
We are at war with Him (God)
unless or until we are justified.
Only the justified person can
be comfortable in the presence
of a holy God.
So we have established that
there is a chasm or gulf that
exists between God who is just
and man who is unjust. After
the fall in the Garden of Eden
man found himself alienated
from God. Where God once
communed with man now that
relationship had lapsed into sin
and lostness. God had placed
Adam in the Garden in a state
of happiness with a promise

reveals both the justice of God,
who punished sin in the person
of his own Son and the righteousness of Gods way of salvation by faith in Jesus. Hence
God is both the just and the
justifier of the one who has
faith in Jesus. (Romans 3:26)
We must not confuse happiness and pleasure. Happiness
is lasting, pleasure is fleeting.

to permanently establish him
if he obeyed Gods command
not to eat from a tree described
as the tree of the knowledge
of good and evil. However
when Adam came to the fork in
the road of happiness and pleasure, he chose pleasure. We as
humans are very much attracted to pleasure. We are a pleasure driven society and not all
pleasures are sinful but when
we allow our desires to control
us sin and alienation from God
is often the result. This type of
pleasure will never bring happiness. So we must continue to
seek more pleasure in search of
happiness.
So we must answer the question how will unjust man ever
become just before a Holy God?
It is through divine accomplishment. The work of Christ

Healthy drink choices are important
Can a person ever have too
much of a good thing?
I believe this may be the
case when you look at all the
soft drinks, flavored water and
sports beverage choices today.
Theyre everywhere.
You cant walk into a supermarket or convenience store
without bumping into the
many drink offering displays.
And flavors. Wow.
Just think of some taste you
desire like fudge malted gumball, cheese yogurt yummy or
silvery satin strawberry. Its
out there and you can buy it
and drink it down.
Without question, the best
part of these drinks for me is
the packaging.
Its unbelievable. And the
creativity?
Its almost too much for one
to digest.
Anymore, I dont even care
whats in the container. I just
want to hold it in my hand,
caress its coolness, admire its
latest, unique logo and look
good doing so.
While many are content with
the multitude of diet sodas, and
flavored waters like blackberry
blush, my drink of choice is
chocolate milk. I really enjoy it.
I have since I was a small child.
Todays explosion of new
soft drinks, flavored waters and
sports drinks has one major
worrisome aspect I cannot help
but point out.
Pitchmen, women and yes
kids are filling our heads with
the idea these flavored drinks
can be part of a well-rounded,
balanced diet. Their ads and
infomercials are as numerous
as grains of sand on our beaches and theyre spending billions.
The most alarming part of
this sales pitch is that so much
of it is aimed at our youth.
In case you havent been in
todays schools this drink deluge is very much a part of the
contemporary scene.
Soft drinks have no business
being considered part of a bal-
anced diet at our schools or
anywhere else. These drinks
have little, if any, nutritional
INSIGHT

value.
Look at the ingredients
in a soft drink the next time
you pick one up. Most people
wouldnt have a clue what
these ingredients are, myself
included.
To be part of a balanced
diet, a food product must have
nutritional value. I believe soft
drinks have such a negligible
amount, they cannot be considered seriously as part of any
balanced diet.
Unlike water, soft drinks
wont even quench your thirst.
They leave you longing for a
tall, cool glass of water.
Talk to a nutritionist or physician and what is the ingredient were supposed to drink at
least eight glasses of?
Thats right. Natures own
liquid water.
What about that wonderful
white liquid chocked full of calcium we call milk?
Where does it fit in our daily
diet?
Milk belongs in almost
everyones diet. Nutritional
research has stressed that men
and women between the ages of
11 and 24 need the equivalent
of five servings of dairy products daily. This can be milk,
yogurt, cheese, ice cream and a
whole array of other good-tasting dairy foods.
Juice from oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes, cranberries, strawberries and other
fruits is another item that
belongs as part of a balanced
diet. Food products from natu-
ral primary crops not always
secondary, highly processed
food products are essential
to our youngsters diets. We
owe it to them and their good
health.
Other drinks made from
tomatoes, carrots, celery and
other vegetables are loaded
with vitamins, minerals and
fiber. Vegetable drinks should
be included as part of our daily
diets.
But lets return to soft
drinks. Youve got to admit its
a brilliant stroke of marketing to link sports and flavored
drinks with a well-rounded,
nutritionally balanced diet.
Infer something often enough
and people will begin to believe.
Soft drinks linked with a
balanced diet and nutrition is
about as palatable to me as the
drink manufacturers laughing
all the way to the bank.
There is no substitute for
healthy, nutritious food in our
daily diets. Students and adults
should reach for a tall glass of
water, juice or milk the next
time theyre thirsty. These are
truly nutritious products that
belong in a daily balanced diet.
The occasional Coke or Dr.
Pepper can be a real treat, and
everyone should indulge their
simple pleasures from time to
time.
But the rest of the time, keep
it simple chocolate milk, fruit
juices or water will do just fine.
Youll be doing yourself a favor
and youll be supporting farmers and ranchers who supply
these fresh, tasty, nutritious
drinks.

Rent vs. own: Which
is right for you?
(BPT) – If youre thinking of
buying your first home, youve
probably wrestled with the
decision to rent or own your
home – and for good reason.
Owning a home is a big commitment. With it comes a lot of
responsibility and a long-term
financial relationship.
But which is right for you?
To answer that, lets lean into
the facts.
The improving housing
market
Good news! Since the depths
of the recession, the housing
market has made a heroic comeback. That can be attributed to
a number of factors, including
a drop in unemployment and a
stronger economy.
But as the housing market
has recovered, it has experienced some growing pains.
With a sharp increase in
demand, housing supplies are
being strained. This means,
among other things, that prices
are going up.
For families and individuals still recovering financially, finding affordable housing
options can be difficult. This
applies to home sales and rentals.
Making the decision
With rental and sales markets heading toward record
highs, the decision falls
back to what is best for you.
Specifically, what is financially
feasible.
Lets look at the basic numbers. According to the U.S.
Census Bureau, the median
gross rent paid from 2012 to 2016
was $949 monthly. Compare
that with the median selected monthly owner costs with
a mortgage, which was $1,491
over the same time period.
Then there are utilities. The
median monthly electricity
cost for renters in 2015 was $82,
with owners paying $117. For
piped gas, the median amount
renters pay monthly is $42,
while owners pay $58.
For renters, it is wise to
carry renters insurance. Some
landlords will also charge
maintenance and other fees.
Utility costs will also vary
depending on the quality of the
structure and materials used as
well as size of the rental space.
Homeowners will pay property taxes, insurance and an
estimated $500 annually for
routine maintenance, according to the Census Bureau.
The benefits of
homeownership
At a glance, it may seem
that renting is the lower cost
option. But there are certain
benefits to homeownership
that may offset the additional
regular costs. According to the
Tax Policy Center, the primary
benefit to owning a home is
imputed rental income. Simply
put, making a monthly payment on a home that you own
is like paying rent to yourself.
While that money is not
taxed, it comes with another
benefit – potential tax deductions. When you file your federal taxes, you may be able to
deduct a portion of the mortgage interest you pay. Talk to a
tax professional for more information on the expenses you
can deduct and the limits for
those deductions.
Beyond the numbers
Homeownership provides
a variety of benefits beyond
the numbers. For many people,
a home is the largest investment they will ever make. The
upgrades, work and care put
into the home that you own can
add value to your investment.
It also adds a sense of pride
knowing that it is yours.
Having a place to call your
own, a place to return to at the
end of the day, makes life better, said Vanderbilt Mortgage
and Finance, Inc. President
Eric Hamilton. You can see
it from the moment they make
the decision – that sense of
pride. Its a life-changing event
and a memory that will last a
lifetime.
