Colony diner gets ready to re-open
March 4 targeted as opening,
diner will feature new menu
items like charbroiled steak
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY – After a devastating fire that
destroyed two Colony businesses, the
owners of Colony Community Diner and
Convenience vowed they would rise from
the ashes, bigger and better.
Now, they are nearly ready for that
comeback. And when the new business
opens as expected in early March, they will
indeed feature more menu items, including
charbroiled steak.
Their motto after the fire was We
will rise from the ashes. Now, it will be
Theres nothing finer than a little diner.
The fire was devastating to the town,
to us, to the out of town patrons, Brenda
Dowling, manager of the diner, said.
The fire was discovered in the early
morning hours of Dec. 4 and destroyed
two neighboring businesses, the diner and
Colony Foods. Colony Community Diner &
Convenience, or CCDC as it was commonly
known, is owned by Roger Young, and
Gary and LaNell Knoll. Colony Foods is
owned by Jeanie Ray. CCDC was destroyed

Construction has begun at the site of the Colony Community Diner. The diner was
destroyed by fire Dec. 4.
just short of its first anniversary after the
owners purchased the diner from Nancy
Ellington in December 2012.
Work already has begun on the new
diner building, and Dowling said she hopes
the building is completed enough to start
working inside by Feb. 15. However, they
dont want to rush the grand opening,

Eric Gordon graduated from Central Heights in 2005. He
appeared on the television show American Idol Wednesday,
and advanced to the next stage of the competition.
Central Heights
grad auditions for
American Idol
Principal, teacher
not surprised by
grads success

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
RICHMOND
Central
Heights High School principal Tom Horstick said the
first time he ever watched
the popular Fox Television
show American Idol was last
Wednesday, Jan. 22. That was
the night he saw a former
student, Eric Gordon, make
it through the first round of
auditions in Detroit to earn a
golden ticket to Hollywood.
Gordon, a 2005 graduate
of Central Heights, auditioned before a panel of
judges that included Harry
Connick Jr., Jennifer Lopez
and Keith Urban. Gordon
sang Perfectly Lonely by
John Mayer, but the judges
cut him off part-way through
the song in order to critique
his performance. All three
judges gave him glowing
reviews and agreed to send
Gordon to the next round of
auditions in Hollywood.
Horstick said he wasnt
surprised that Gordon auditioned for the show again.

Rules on free house
disposal get cleared up
New program allows

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – New rules that
allow someone who is tearing
down a house to dispose of the
property at no cost have created
questions and concerns from
people in Anderson County. At
a recent county commission
meeting, two officials cleared
up some of that confusion.
County
commissioners
voted late last year to allow
people to dump waste products
from house demolition at the
Anderson County landfill at no
charge. The property must be
a single dwellilng and must be
empty, with no clothing, rags,
draperies, trash can or tires.
Dale Prince, Zoning Director,
and Scott Garrett, Solid Waste
Supervisor, answered other
questions people had about the
new program.
Some of the items that will
be allowed include hot water
heaters, windows and glass. A

Dry conditions, approach of spring is time to think about controlled burning
That makes this a good time
Nows the time to think to remind area residents about
about burning rules, the proper procedure for controlled burning, J.D. Mersman,
county official says
Anderson County Fire and
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Recent cold waves
that dropped area temperatures below zero may make you
long for warmer things, but it
wont be too many weeks before
area landowners start burning grass, brush and dry plant
growth as part of their land
management approach.
Emergency Management director, said.
Anyone who lives in the City
of Garnett or rural Anderson
County and who is planning to
burn is required to call Anderson
County Communications at
(785) 448-6823 to receive a burn
permit. The process typically
is quite simple and takes only a
minute or two. The brief phone
call allows the communications
center to collect information
such as location of the planned
burn and contact information
for those who will conduct the
burn.
This information can be
valuable if calls are received
reporting a possible fire when
in fact the fire they are seeing is controlled and a permit
issued. This eliminates unnecessary response by fire units,
Mersman said.
If weather conditions are
not favorable for burning, the
permit will not be issued and
communications center staff
will inform those who call
seeking a permit that no burning is allowed. Restricted open
burning is at the discretion of
the Garnett Fire Department
and the Anderson County
Emergency Management. The
decision typically is made when
fire weather forecasting by
the National Weather Service
in Topeka indicates fires will
be difficult to control, such as
wind speed or humidity levels.
Those who fail to follow the
rules and are found to be burning without a permit can face a
fine up to $2,500 and be respon-
sible for costs associated with
the fire department response to
the incident.
Mersman also offered a few
other guidelines for people who
plan to burn. All trash must be
inside a metal container with a
screen or mesh over the top to
contain any embers or burning material that may leave the
container. Avoid placing aerosol cans or other objects that
could explode in the fire.
Other tips include:
Avoid all outdoor burning
during extremely dry weather
conditions.
Keep a buffer zone of short
grass around structures or
bales of hay.
Clear brush and overgrowth away from structures.
Have some source of water
nearby when doing any burning.
Avoid tossing cigarettes out
of vehicles.
Use extreme caution when
burning near roadways and
airports. Smoke blowing across
roadways or runways can limit
visibility and place travelers in
danger.

held on what is to be allowed to be
included in the dumping of a single family dwelling. The landfill is not allowed

be removed from the home before it is
brought to the landfill. They discussed
a list of other items that are not to be
included. There will be an inspection of
the home before it is demolished and
Scott and Dale will share the duties
of the inspections. Dale may need to
work more hours than was originally
agreed upon to be able to handle the
inspections. Scott questioned whether

a clause in the application that if they
receive reimbursement from insurance

should go to the county.

BURNETT
GORDON…
April 30, 1947-January 23, 2014
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Published January 28, 2014
Leonard Dale Len Burnett, age
66, of Garnett, Kansas, passed away
on Thursday, January 23, 2014, at
his home.
Len was born on April 30, 1947,
in Ottawa, Kansas, the second of
three sons of Clarence and Helen
(Brumfield) Burnett.
He was drafted into the US Army
in 1966. He served on tour of duty
in Vietnam. He was awarded two
bronze service stars and was honorably discharged in October of 1968.
He married Retha Beissel on June 6,
1970, at the First Christian Church
in Garnett.
He was preceded in death by
his parents, and an infant brother,
Clarence James Burnett..
Survivors include his wife Retha
Burnett, of the home; son Michael
Burnett of Colony; daughter
Lindsay Stark of Pittsburg; seven
grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.
Funeral services were Monday,
January 27, 2014, at the First
Christian Church in Garnett,
Kansas. Burial followed in the
Springfield Cemetery, Garnett.
DUMPING…
FROM PAGE 1A
detached garage will be included as part of the property as
long as it is empty. Concrete
from city sidewalks to the house
and around the house also will
be allowed.
Disposal of
insulation
is somewhat of a gray area,
however. Insulation will be
accepted, but only if it does not
contain asbestos. Garrett said
it can be difficult to identify
if asbestos is present, and its
possible the landfill may accept
something that contains asbestos without knowing it. Older
homes are more likely to have
asbestos.
Recyclable material will
need to be brought separately,
Garrett said. An inspection is
made before the material is
hauled, and recyclable material
can be identified at that time.
If homeowner insurance
paid for demolition and dumping, money from the insurance
company should be given to the
county.
Garrett estimated the program has saved property owners between $800 to $1,700 in
dumping fees. However, the
program helps owners more
easily remove unsightly, unsafe
and dilapidated structures. It
also can save the county in
costly legal fees if the homeowner cant afford to remove
the building or refuses to do
so for other reasons, and the
county must take legal action
to remove the structure.

age of 6 when he learned how
to plug a headphone cable into
a stereo receiver.
Particularly shy and believing no one could hear me, I put
on the headphones, drifted into
my own world, and sang, he
wrote in the blog. The first
albums my parents bought me
were SWV Its About Time and
CeCe Peniston Finally. I spent
several years emulating their
voices and I guess you can say
thats when the dream to be a
singer took root.
Stephanie Cannady, who
taught music at Central Heights
but now works at an elementary school in Ottawa, said she
also isnt surprised by Gordons
success. The entire family had
music talent, and they have
fun, outgoing personalities that
people enjoy, she said.
In his senior write-up for The
Review in 2005, Gordon wrote
his favorite memory from high
school was singing at state and
shopping with Mrs. Cannady.
Cannady said Gordon competed
at regional and state contests in
solos and ensembles, and generally received I ratings.
I can still remember working with him on his Italian
arias, Caro Mio Ben the most.
He later went to state with
those arias and his chamber
ensemble, Cannady said. We
always had a good time at the
state music festival. And yes,
we usually found time to hit the
local mall. All of kids seemed
to love shopping together!
Cannady also remembers
the first time Gordon tried out
for American Idol. He made it
past the first round, but didnt
make it past the second round
to audition in front of the judges.
In high school he was determined to get on the show, she
said. I really thought he would
get on the first time, but he was
young and just needed a little
more experience.
After graduating from
Central Heights, Gordon
planned to attend college in
Nashville but couldnt afford
to go. Undeterred, he later followed his brother, also a musi-
cian, to Minneapolis. Eric
attended college and continued
to pursue his dreams of a music
career. Thats where he met his
wife, Rachel, and they now live
in Osseo, Minn.
Gordon recorded his first
EP, Time, in 2008. He also auditioned and was chosen to be one
of 35 contestants on a television show, Gospel Dream, on
the Gospel Music Channel (now
Up). That experience motivated him to continue his music
career, and he recorded two
albums after that.
Its a beautiful thing when
a career and a passion come
together, Gordon wrote on the
TuneCore site.
Gordon currently works as
a laboratory technician for
the University of Minnesota
Medical Center. He also works a
few weekends a month singing
on his church worship team.

EDITORIAL
Turtle teaches valuable lesson in Americana
A turtle recently reminded me how great
a country we live in.
How, you may ask, could a turtle convey
such a deep and abstract concept to someone
not versed in turtlese?
Why, National Public Radio, of course.
More specifically, a full hour of NPR programming devoted to animal love and broadcast by the Humane Society of The United
States.
Shelly is a turtle owned by a Philadelphia
woman who called into the show. The womans dilemma: She wanted to turn Shelly
loose, and wanted some tips on how to do
that.
Not to disparage the intelligence of the
average NPR listener, but, yes Im serious.
Now, I dont know how many turtles
youve had experience with, but I dare say
Ive known my share in my day, man and boy.
Most of the time, in my experience, theres
not much question about how to turn a turtle
loose. For a reptile that can only navigate in
warm weather, and then only at a speed of
about 1/8 mile per hour they can disappear
faster than you can say how much is this
radio show costing the taxpayers?
So heres a grown woman she was 56,
and Ill tell you why thats relevant in just a
second calling a radio show broadcast by
the Humane Society (which means she must
have been actually listening to a radio show
broadcast by the Humane Society) trying to
determine how to let her turtle loose.
I had a turtle once when I was a kid that
got out of a toilet paper box I got from the grocery store had to have been over 2 feet high.
There was a broken broom handle nearby in
my folks garage all I can figure is that he
pole vaulted to freedom.
So getting rid of a turtle shouldnt be
that tough for a person whos at least smart
enough to catch one in the first place. I mean,
I can see calling a radio show because youre
wondering what kind of shade tree should be
planted in a yard with lots of sandy soil, or
why every time your car goes over 40 m.p.h.
orange smoke billows from the glove compartment… but how to turn a turtle loose? Its
like calling a radio show and asking how to
fall off a ladder.
The shows hosts, however, were not the
least bit consternated by the query. We
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
learned during the discourse that box turtles
can live 30 years and some may live lots longer hence Shellys captors worry that she
might not live long enough to always provide
a good home for Shelly at 56, the turtle could
easily out live her. And we assume she wanted
to avoid any nasty tiffs in picking pallbearers
between Shelly and the womans 14 cats.
We also learned that turning Shelly loose
might be a bad idea to start with if her reluctant captor had transported her far from the
point of capture. Thats because box turtles
often stake out a territory with a radius of no
more than 750 feet, and though it may overlap
with another turtles turf (Im starting to get
visions of West Side Story here) the limits
are usually pretty well observed. And, amazingly, a box turtle removed from his territory
is like a homing pigeon hell get his bearings and start heading back for the old home
place.
That journey may cost him his life, of
course, because of predators and the chances
of encountering steel belted radials.
But the most enduring lesson from Turtle
Talk had nothing to do with the Humane
Society or Shelly or some 56 year-old woman
who cant figure out how to turn a turtle
loose.
It was that in a world full of nations where
people are starving, killing each other in
genocidal wars, kids working in sweatshop
conditions and/or fearing the secret police or
sometimes even their own neighbors, we live
in a country so blessed that we can devote
radio time to a woman engaged in the life
dilemma of releasing her turtle.
I hope we appreciate that.

How can anyone say that the deer
that were thrown in the river were
killed legally? Why would anyone
with a brain do such a thing? Theyd
have to go to a lot of work to do it,
and has anybody seen any deer hair
in their water? How can this not be
a health hazard when there are 14 or
more deer in the same water where
the citys water intake is located?
I just completed reading the last
city commissioners meeting report
and then the quarterly report that
just came out from the city. I find
it quite amusing that their only
interest is in getting tourism here
in Garnett while we got other problems that need to be taken care of.
Theyre sitting there at their meet-
Heroism be damned, at least in Hollywood
The movie Lone Survivor didnt get any
major Oscar nominations. If it had, perhaps it should have been nominated for Most
Unlikely Politically Incorrect Picture of the
Year.
Its based on the true story of a mission in
Afghanistan that goes disastrously wrong. A
four-man team of Navy SEALs hunting down
a Taliban commander is stumbled upon by
a couple of goatherds in the mountains of
Kunar province. Deciding to let them go,
even though it will compromise them, the
SEALs are subsequently outnumbered in a
fierce firefight. Three of them are killed, and
a Chinook helicopter attempting to relieve
them is downed, killing another 16 Americans.
The only survivor is a SEAL named Marcus
Luttrell, who is played by Mark Wahlberg and
wrote a book about the mission.
None of this is remotely controversial
material. How could anyone be offended by
a movie about a Navy SEAL fighting with
everything he has to save himself and his
buddies and improbably surviving an epic
ordeal? Yet the brickbats have been flying
from the snotty left: Propaganda. Simplistic.
Racist. Lone Survivor has run up against
part of the culture that cant stand the most
straightforward depictions of American heroism and the warrior ethic.
A reviewer in The Atlantic worries that
movies like Lone Survivor resemble
multi-million dollar recruitment videos
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
geared toward the young and the impressionable. There is no doubt that the SEALs
are portrayed as noble and heroic, for good
reason: They were. But a recruitment film?
The implicit message is that if you become a
SEAL, you, too, can be faced with excruciating life-and-death decisions in hostile territory. You, too, can get shot up and killed.
A writer in Salon complains that the targeted Taliban commander is presented as
a terrible guy, and we dont learn enough
about the Taliban fighters attacking the
SEALs. Yes, if only we knew whether or not
the Taliban commander, Ahmad Shah, had
a troubled upbringing, that would change
everything.
In perhaps the most preposterous critique,
a critic in LA Weekly says the attitude of the
SEALs in the movie is Brown people bad,
American people good. What a stupid smear.
The proximate cause of the impossible situation of the SEALs is precisely their decision
to let a few unarmed brown people go.
It is certainly true that Lone Survivor
is not Fellini. It is about as subtle as an RPG
round. But it captures something important:
the otherworldly fearlessness and grit of our
best fighters. If this story — the inevitable
cinematic embellishments, aside — werent
true, you would be hard-pressed to believe it.
These are extraordinary men, and the tale of
their valor deserves to be told over and over
again, whatever you think of the Afghan War
or the broader war on terror.
Several years ago, Hollywood made a
bunch of tendentious anti-Iraq War movies,
all of which flopped. Lone Survivor is one
of the few recent war movies that have been
a success at the box office. Its not hard to
understand why. It takes a perverse hostility
to all that is great and good in the U.S. military not to find it gripping and inspiring.

Review.
Out-conservatizing the conservatives
Nobody expected a reception to honor
dolphins, but the crowd at the Kansas
Republican Party state convention in Wichita
last weekend was more conservative than it
has been in decades…and even conservatives
were being out-conservatived most of the
celebratory weekend.
There was three-term U.S. Rep. Lynn
Jenkins of the northeast Kansas 2nd
Districtand who is now dean of the states
U.S. House delegationwho picked up a primary election opponent at the GOP love fest.
Freshman State Sen. Steve Fitzgerald, RLeavenworth, announced his candidacy to
defeat Jenkins, creating a GOP primary election. He linked Jenkins to the U.S. House
leadership led by Rep. John Boehner of Ohio.
That leadership linkJenkins often is seen
standing by Boehner at press conferences
made her too moderate for Fitzgerald.
Fitzgerald, who ran twice for the Senate
before winning the seat in 2012with the
help of a $1,000 campaign contribution from
Jenkinsbelieves that a vote on an immigration bill in the House will come later
than expected, essentially insulating its
Republican supporters from retribution at
the polls.
The result for the GOP brand name?
Another primary election in which its members burn up money that they might need
at the general election to retain the partys
majority in the U.S. House, where the num-
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
bers are the key, more important than their
political leanings. Its the R behind their
names that is what the party generically is
after, while the political shadings are important to the feisty conservatives and ultra-conservatives.
But for the plugged-in at the GOP weekend
at Wichitas Hyatt Regency, the Fitzgerald
announcement was the smaller possible
bump to a unified party.
The insiders were holding their breath
to learn whether former 8-term 4th District
Republican U.S. Rep. Todd Tiahrt, now the
partys Republican National Committeeman
after losing the Senate primary election to
now-U.S. Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., would
run for Congress again.
Remember the epic, party-shaking 2010
fight between Tiahrt and Moran for the
Senate seat that Sam Brownback abandoned
to successfully seek the governorship?
The anxiety was whether Tiahrt would
use the biggest gathering of Republicans
this year to announce he is running for
the Wichita-centric 4th Districtchallenging
two-term U.S. Rep. Mike Pompeo, R-Kan.
After a weekend of party insiders holding
their breath, facing a high-level, expensive,
money-from-the-general-diverting primary
election, Tiahrt said he was still thinking it
over.
The Fitzgerald-Jenkins race? It would cost
a fraction of a Tiahrt-Pompeo race, if one
occurs.
And for the party, every dollar spent in
Republican vs. Republican fights is a dollar
not spent against Democrats, whether at the
federal or Statehouse level.
Because we dont figure it will be spent to
comfort dolphins.

Hospital provides
great care, recovery
Im writing to express my sincere gratitude
for the outstanding care my husband received,
at the Anderson County Hospital, while recuperating from a stroke and hip replacement.
Late
this
past summer,
my husband
suffered
a
severe stroke
and was transferred to one of the larger hospitals in the metro
area. Subsequently, after being moved to a
rehabilitation facility, he fell and broke his hip
and was once again returned to the hospital for
hip-replacement surgery. The larger hospital
provided excellent care and is most definitely
a wonderful facility when needed. However, a
patient tends to be a bit anonymous and the
care perfunctory. We were concerned, due to
the extent of his deficits that my husband might
not return home.
Once, we were finally given the approval to
discharge him to a skilled nursing facility, we
were thrilled to be able to move him to our local
hospital, It was at this time, we started noticing
small improvements which continued throughout his months-long inpatient care.
We credit these improvements to the genuine
caring of everyone who is on staff at Anderson
County Hospital. Whether it was the physicians,
nurses, technicians, aides, laboratory personnel,
physical, speech, and occupational therapy staff
members, administrative staff, dietary team
members, facilities maintenance staff, hospital
volunteers or just those who walked by his
room and took a moment to acknowledge him to
say hello, he became someone who was truly
cared about and was treated with dignity and
respect. The personal attention he received was
instrumental in helping him to regain strength
and recover. Upon his return home we have

As a result of an investigation made by Dr. Harris while
United States Commissioner
of Education, he found that in
communities where most was
spent for educational purposes, the wage-earners received
higher pay than in other places;
or, in other words, that there
is a direct relationship existing
between wage-earning capacity
and a communitys financial
attitude toward educational
institutions. Schools and libraries bring about results in a
community that commands a
commercial value. More and
more are we coming to a realization of the fact that the public library is as essential in the
educational system of a community as the public schools.
Crest boys finish 5th in tournament
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
The Crest boys opened the
Tony Dubray Classic in disappointing fashion, but finished
strong by winning their final
two games.
On Tuesday night, the
Lancers squared off with
Galena. They fell behind early
and werent ever able to recover
in a 64-34 loss in the first round.
Galena led 17-6 after the first
quarter and pushed their lead
to 33-16 at halftime.
The second half wasnt any
better as Crest didnt come out
of halftime playing well. Galena
dominated the third quarter as
they outscored the Lancers 2111. Galena polished off the win
by outscoring Crest 10-7 in the
fourth quarter.
Landon Stephens led Crest
against Galena with 9 points
and Brock Ellis notched 8
points.
In the second round of the
tournament, Crest responded
to the opening round letdown
nicely with a solid 65-52 victory
over Golden City.
Crest and Golden City
played a back and forth first
half as Crest held a slim 18-17
lead after the first quarter. The
second quarter was much of
the same as Crest struggled to
put any distance between themselves and Golden City. The two
teams went into halftime with
Crest holding a slim 34-32 lead.
Unlike the first round game,
this time the Lancers came out
of halftime ready to play. They
held Golden City to 9 points in
the third as they scored 13 of
their own to lead 47-41 heading
in to the final quarter. They
quickly squashed any hopes for
Golden City at coming back as
they took control by outscoring
them 18-11 in the fourth for the
victory.
Austin Green led the way
for the Lancers with 18 points.
Brock Ellis and Hunter Frazell
also added 12 points each.
In the fifth place game Friday
night, Crest continued their
strong play from the Golden
City game as they played a solid
first half en route to a 55-38 victory over Thomas Jefferson.
Crest controlled the first
quarter as they jumped out
to an early 14-5 lead after the
first quarter. Both teams played
well offensively in the second
quarter as Crest put up 19
more points compared to 16 by
Thomas Jefferson.
Thomas Jefferson came out
and outscored the Lancers 11-7
in the third quarter to cut the
lead to 40-32 after the third.
Crest took over in the fourth
and rolled to a 5th place finish
in the Tony Dubray Classic by
outscoring Thomas Jefferson
15-6 in the fourth quarter.
Ellis and Stephens led the
Lancers with 17 and 16 points
respectively.

large and still had evidence
of two cannon placements
at opposite ends, which
looked out over the old narrow gauge railroad. In one
of these placements a very
large and thick metal pad
was uncovered. It had been
put there to provide a very
level and sturdy platform for
a cannon to be set on and
be fired. The cannons were
used to protect the train.
A very dear friend and
I spent many hours metal
detecting this old redoubt
and surrounding areas
for Civil War artifacts and
I must admit, we both had
very good luck doing it.

What is the price of filling Miller celebrates 95th birthday
your hearts desire?
On my daily calendar at work
I found the following statement.
Happiness is neither within
us only, or without us; it is the
union of ourselves with God.
For sure happiness is not inherent within us. Our happiness
is most often based on our circumstances. For instance the
mood at work is usually better on Friday than on Monday.
Some things that can affect our
happiness are financial woes,
family problems or job related
issues. The loss of a loved one
can completely change our life
overnight.
Television, magazines and
other ads tell us that happiness is out there waiting for
us. We are told happiness can
be enhanced by staying young,
being fit, being part of a crowd
or treating ourselves to luxury.
All these thing are made possible by some product to alter our
body in some way or something
that creates a sense of well
being in our mind. The trouble
with stimulation of any kind is
the affect wears off. Then we
are left with reality. Reality
can be a very harsh companion. Knowing we may never
get what our hearts desire is
difficult to deal with.
In the Book of Ecclesiastes
Solomon introduces this book
by stating, All is vanity. In
his lifetime Solomon accumulated great wealth and possessions as well as practicing selfindulgence but he could find
no lasting peace or rest. Most
of us would say let me have the
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
riches, power and wisdom of
Solomon and I will be the judge
of whether I am happy. That is
an option we can choose. The
problem is money causes us
to worry, projects fade away,
things rust and decay and our
health dwindles.
Alexander the Great, perhaps
the worlds greatest conquer,er
died an alcoholic after conquering the entire known world at
the age of 33. Alexanders
words were, What shall I do
now with no more new worlds
to conquer?
What conquered Alexander
and other lesser men was they
filled their heart with all their
personal desires but they left
their soul empty. You cant
fill your soul up with things.
The soul is where the moral
and emotional nature of man
resides. Until it finds peace and
rest it will be weary and restless. That is why Jesus said,
Come to me, all you who are
weary and burdened, and I will
give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)
Until man unites himself to
God he will have no lasting happiness or peace.

Family and friends of Lois
Miller, Garnett, KS, gathered at Golden Heights on
December 28, 2013, for an early
birthday gathering to celebrate her milestone birthday.
Lois turned 95 on January 1st,
2014. She is a lifelong resident of Garnett, and currently resides at Golden Heights
Living Center in Garnett. Lois
is a well loved family treasure to us all, as is evident
from so many of her family,
many traveling from afar, that
gather each year to celebrate
her birthday, including this
monumental birthday.
The Golden Heights front
living room and hallway filled
and overflowed, with Lois
large extended family and
friends, stopping by to wish
her a happy birthday, enjoy
refreshments, and visit.
Two of Lois granddaughters, Cindy Lowe of Garnett,
and Cherie Ingram of Omega,
Oklahoma, baked and decorated a large four layer vanilla
cake with cream cheese frosting. Cherie & Cindy have
delighted in creating spe-
cial birthday cakes for their
grandma for many, many
years, and enjoy thinking of
themes each year for her cake.
This years cake theme for
their beloved grandma was
Queen for a Day, complete
with golden sugar sprinkles,
4 blinged candles, and a
gold candelabra cake topper.
The cake was displayed on
a cake stand complete with
a gold tulle tutu. Decorated
cupcakes were made and
provided by another granddaughter, Michelle Stewart,
of Cashion, Oklahoma, and
were beautifully displayed on
a gold tulle trim cake board.
Fitting with the Queen for a
Day theme, Cindy, Cherie, and
Michelle, decorated the front
living room with personalized gold & white Happy 95th
birthday banners, and the
serving tables were decorated with white and gold table
coverings, and gold tableware.
Lorraine Stewart, of Cashion,
Oklahoma, provided a delicious pink punch, and Golden
Heights generously provided
the ice tea and coffee. Families
traveling to attend the celebration were: daughter Lorraine
Stewart, Cashion, OK; granddaughter Cherie Ingram &
husband Mark, Omega, OK;
great granddaughter Jennifer
Ingram, Oklahoma City, OK;

The annual Christmas party
was held at the United Brethren
Church on Dec. 1, 2013, hostessed
by Rose Marie Miller and assisted by Mary Ann Umbarger. The
tables were decorated for the
festivities with candles. Meat
casseroles were furnished by
four members. Desserts and
side dishes were brought by others. As usual, the food and the
company were outstanding.
Birthday gifts were presented to Dorothy Miller,
Shirley Benjmain and Angela
McSpadden. For the business
portion of the evening, officers
for the new year were elected.
Dorothy Miller is president,
Janis Hightower, secretary-
Ga
treasurer; and Hilda Lankard
as alternate officer. New Secret
Sisters 2014 were drawn. Cards
were distributed to reveal the
2013 Secret Sisters.
Instead of bringing gifts for
our Secret Sister, each member brought items to be donated to the ECKAN food pantry.
Paul Phares delivered those
items the next day. Next on the
agenda was to play Bingo for
white elephant gifts that each
person provided. It was great
fun. Parting gift bags from Rose
Marie were filled with candies
and 2014 pocket calendars.

will host the January meeting

The ACHS Girls played
Wellsville Wednesday night and
came away with a victory, winning 49-42.
Both teams struggled offensively in the first quarter. At
the end of the period, the score
was tied at 6. Wellsville seemed
to get things going in the second quarter as they exploded
for 21 points compared to the
Bulldogs 14 to give them a 27-20
lead heading into halftime.
The AC girls came out of the
locker room in the second half
and seized control of the game.
The third quarter saw the girls

the fourth quarter. The fourth
was all Bulldogs as they continued to play well after halftime.
ACHS put up 17 points in the
fourth and held Wellsville to
just 9, pulling away for the 49-42
victory.
Leading the way for the
Bulldogs was Paige Scheckel

Viking girls lose tough games
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
The Central Height girls traveled to Pleasanton last week
for the Pleasanton Mid-Season
Tournament. The format was
unlike most tournaments as the
tournament only had 7 teams.
The field was split into two
pools. The championship pool
consisted of the top four seeded
teams and the consolation pool
consisted of the bottom three
seeds. Each pool played a round
robin style of tournament.
The Vikings squared off
against Jayhawk-Linn to open
the tournament and suffered a
47-42 loss.
After a solid first quarter
which saw the Vikings jump out
to a 10-6 advantage, JayhawkLinn responded by outscoring
the Vikings 15-8 in the second
quarter to take a 21-18 lead into
halftime.
Central Heights responded
well after halftime as it was
their turn to take the lead. The
Vikings held a 33-31 advantage
heading into the fourth after outscoring Jayhawk-Linn 15-10 in
the third.
The Vikings faltered down
the stretch though as JayhawkLinn chipped away at the lead.
By the time the buzzer sounded,
Central Heights saw their lead
disappear as Jayhawk-Linn controlled the fourth quarter 16-9.
Kenzie Hayward paced the
Vikings with 11 points. Sydney
Meyer was the only other Viking
in double figures with 10.
The second game of the tournament saw the Vikings matched
up with tournament host
Pleasanton. Central Heights
prevailed in overtime, knocking
off Pleasanton 47-43.
Pleasanton got off to a solid
start as they led 14-11 after the
first quarter and 21-17 at halftime.
Central Heights saw their
deficit grow slightly in the third
as Pleasanton outscored them
10-9. Facing a 31-26 lead heading
into the fourth quarter, the game
was still well within reach. This
time it was the Vikings to make
the solid fourth quarter push to
send the game to overtime, with
the game tied at 41.
Pleasanton failed to get much
of anything going offensively in
overtime as they were only able
to muster 2 points. The Vikings
scored just 6 points of their own
in overtime, but it was enough
to finish off a nice come from
behind victory.
Whitney Kraus scored 14
points and Tami Schaefer
scored 10 points to help pace the
Vikings.
In the final game of the tournament, Central Heights played
Uniontown and fell in another
heart breaker, 44-43.
The game was close throughout as it was tied 15-15 after the
first quarter and Central Heights
trailed by just three at halftime.

Some of the super spellers
Winners of the Garnett Elementary School spelling bee, left photo, were Abbey Fritz and Lilly Spring. Winners of the Greeley Elementary School spelling bee
were Tyler Gibson and Linda Latimer. They are just some of the young qualifiers representing their schools at the Anderson County Spelling Bee on January
31st at the ACHS auditorium beginning at 1:15 pm.
Russell nominated for teacher award
The Garnett Veterans of
Foreign Wars Post has selected
Mr. Jeff Russell as their nominee for the National Teacher
of the Year award. Mr. Russell
teaches instrumental music at
Anderson County Jr/Sr High
School and Garnett Elementary
School. He also teaches vocal
and instrumental music at
Greeley Elementary School.
Jeff has always been very
unselfish with his time that he
devotes to community events
such as creation and direction
of the Garnett Community
Band. Jeff also has given our
VFW Post his time to blow Taps
when we have a military funeral.
The VFW commended Russell
for the performance of his band
at music competitions, the visibility of the band throughout
the year in both school and
community
arenas, the
signif icant
presence
of the comm u n i t y
band which
is enjoyed
by the comRussell
munity as a
whole.
They also noted in their
nomination letter that for the
past several years, the annual
Veterans Day program has
been held in the auditorium of
Anderson County Jr/Sr High
and Mr. Russell has been very
active in facilitating the music
for the program. Each year he
directs the band as they play
the music representing each
branch of the military and as
they play these melodies, the
veterans of the respective
branches stand and are recognized by the audience. Through
this endeavor, Mr. Russell and
the students show their respect
and appreciation for those veterans. Also often times he is
called upon to play Taps at the
service of a deceased veteran.
He holds the utmost respect for
those who wear or have worn
the uniforms of our country.
Jeff will now compete
against the nominee from the
twenty-one other posts in our
district, District II. If he is a
winner there he will then compete against the winners of the
other eight districts in the state
of Kansas. The state winner
then competes against the fiftyone other winners. The national winner receives a check for
$1000 as does their school.
Community Spelling Bee returns
The Friends of the Library
Community Spelling Bee will
be 2 p.m. Sunday, February
23, at the Garnett Recreation
Center.
Spelling teams of three
adults will compete against
each other for glory, honor, and
the bragging rights to Garnetts
Spelling Supremacy. This isnt
just any old fashioned Spelling
Bee, this will have twists, turns,
surprises, and prizes.
You spoke and we listened,
easier words, more rounds!
Disclaimer – of course the
words do eventually have to get

Couple seeks retirement near family in Garnett
GARNETT Linda (Rockers) Rothers was
surprised when her husband suggested
they retire to Garnett. Her husband,
LeWayne, came from a small town in
northern Kansas, and they already owned
120 acres and a small log cabin in Garnett
where they frequently spent weekends,
but Linda Rothers had some concerns
when he suggested moving there full
time.
I thought, thats too far away, she
said.
She fought cancer three times, and
had developed good relationships with
her doctors at KU Medical Center. She
was concerned about having to drive to
Kansas City for health care, but quickly
realized she has siblings in Garnett who
also seek health care in the Kansas City
area.
Now Im driving up there (to Kansas
City) two or three times a week. Its not
that far, she said.
Despite her concerns about the distance to and from her doctor, everything
else about retiring in Garnett felt right.
Rothers grew up on a dairy farm
between Garnett and Richmond and
graduated from Garnett High School in
1963. She is the oldest of nine children.
More than half of them still live around
Garnett, and most of the others live
around Kansas City.
After graduating high school, Rothers
moved to Kansas City where she worked
and raised a family. She and LeWayne
married 34 years ago, and stayed in the
Kansas City area where they raised their
family.
They also own property in Florida,
and typically spent winters in Florida
and summers in Kansas. They frequently
visited Garnett, and about 20 years ago
bought the 120 acres and log cabin on
Nebraska Road just south of Garnett. The
property does not have tillable land, but
they rent some of the land to a nephew
who has cattle on it. The rest of the property is wooded or rocky with a creek running through it.
LeWayne fell in love with the area,
Rothers said. He enjoyed being at the
property and doing farm-type work there.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 01-28-2014 / Photo Courtesy Brandpoint
Linda and LeWayne Rothers are shown at the building site on Nebraska Road south of Garnett, where they are building their retirement
home after 40 years of living in Kansas City.
When the couple decided it was time to
downsize, LeWayne suggested they build
a house and move to Garnett.
They put their Overland Park house
on the market and it sold within 24 hours
in late September. That meant the couple
needed to move, quickly, and they settled into the one-bedroom, one-bathroom
small log cabin they had previously used
only for a weekend at a time. Some modifications, such as improvements to the
heating system, had to be made in order to
make it through the cold Kansas winter.
Rothers joked that she had planned to
downsize, but the cabin is downsizing to
the extreme. At least it doesnt require
much cleaning, she said with a laugh.
The couples son, Greg Rothers, is an
architect with his own business, Rothers
Design/Build, and he offered to design the
house for them. They gave him a sketch
of what they wanted, and hes helping
them make it a reality, right down to the
Insulated Concrete Forms structure they
picked that will feature a layer of concrete
between two sheets of insulated foam.
He promises theyll be able to move in by
next Thanksgiving.
Adjusting to life in Garnett has been
very easy, Rothers said. She has joined
the Garnett Recreation Center and enjoys
going there in the morning. The couple
also belong to Holy Angels Church in
Garnett.
Its nice to walk into a store and immediately find a helpful clerk who answers
your questions, Rothers said. Its also nice
to be close to family and friends, she said.
For example, the couple attended a
wedding in Scipio this past weekend. For
Rothers, it was a chance to visit with
people shes known since childhood.
It was just pleasant, she said. Living
down here is very calming. We love the
feel of Garnett, the friendship.
Health care usually plays role in picking retirement location
GARNETT When it comes time to decide
where you will retire, one of the deciding
factors usually is access to quality health
care, experts say.
There are four key factors most people consider as they get ready to retire,
Elizabeth Maxwell, executive director
for East Central Kansas Area Agency on
Aging (ECKAAA) in Ottawa, said. And all
four of the top reasons have something to
do with health care.
1. Access to health care services.
Places like Garnett and Ottawa have an
advantage over other similarly-sized communities because they each have a hospital and an established health care system.
Anderson County Hospital is building a
new, $26 million facility that will help
it better meet the health care needs of
people in the community, and that could
help attract people who are concerned
about their health.
2. A strong support base with family
and friends.
Having family and friends nearby is
good for emotional health, but its also
good for physical health, Maxwell said.
You may be healthy when youre 70
and you retire, but within 10 years your
health can change rapidly, she said. You
want someone who can check in on you.
3. Community support services.
ECKAAA helps senior citizens in the
area find access to support services, such
as someone who can clean your house or
give you a bath if you arent able to do
so yourself. There are aging agencies all
across the state that work hard to help
seniors stay in their homes as long as they
possibly can.
4. Quality nursing facilities.
The final stage in the continuum of
care could be a nursing facility, Maxwell
said. When someone is unable to care for
themselves and moves to a nursing facility, its important to have quality facilities
near family members who can visit and
provide emotional support, Maxwell said.
We treat and manage Macular Degeneration,
Glaucoma and Cataracts. Early detection and
treatment saves vision. If your eyes have not
been tested within the past year, call today to
schedule an appointment. We accept Medicare
and most other insurance plans.
Small towns like Garnett and Ottawa
have all that available, without the hustle
and bustle of the city, Maxwell said. Its
the quiet life most of us would like to
have.
Dennis Arnold, economic development director for the City of Garnett,
said health care may be one of the most
important reasons someone retires in a
small town, but its not the only reason.
Family and friends nearby can make a big
difference, but seniors also are concerned
about things like affordable housing.
I was talking to a senior this week
who said he moved here because the community was clean and safe and there were
things to do, Arnold said Friday.
Care is in everything we do.
Person-centered care puts you at the heart of
our approach to serving residents. Thats
why families turn to Moran Manor for
quality skilled nursing care were here
to provide whatever you need, whenever
you need it.

Call Luanne Freund for a tour.
Arnold notes that many times when
senior citizens move, its related to weather. Kansas isnt exactly in the Sun Belt, so
the state typically doesnt appeal to people
who are looking for year-round warm
temperatures. Instead, people who move
to small towns like Garnett tend to come
from larger communities within 50 to 100
miles.
The citys tourism and economic development leaders have begun a Bring Em
Back campaign to encourage people who
grew up in the area to move back. As a
person ages, their priorities change and
they might be more likely to move back to
their hometown for reasons like nostalgia
or family and friends.

How to plan a memorable multigenerational vacation
(BPT) – Whether over the river or through
the woods, families across the U.S. are
planning to travel during the holidays. In
a world of well-traveled toddlers, worldly
teens and active seniors, multigenerational travel is growing and for good reason:
everyone enjoys a vacation together while
creating unforgettable memories.
Multigenerational family travel is
character building, says Julie Henning,
writer and contributor for destination and
activity website LiveLifeLocal.com. In
exploring new places with the people who
already know your strengths and flaws
– and love you anyway – you can come
together in a way that otherwise wouldnt
happen at a holiday or reunion.
Planning a trip for the whole family
doesnt have to be intimidating. With a few
simple tips, its easy to coordinate a vacation everyone will enjoy:
1. Keep a group mindset
Whether youre orchestrating an elaborate vacation where the whole group flies
across the country, or youre road-tripping, picking up the grandparents along
the way, keep the lines of communication
open.
Planning a multigenerational trip is
a little bit like planning a wedding, says
Henning. If you can remember the trip
is not just about you, but a time of celebration for the entire family, chances are
youll have much fonder memories.
2. Plan together
If you have more than one planner
in the group, involve them all in creating
the agenda as much as possible, advises
Henning. This will help ensure everyone
provides input and the responsibilities are
spread between multiple people.
Online travel sites make it easy to plan
multigenerational trips, even if families live in different locations. Such sites
allows users to discover unique destinations, read reviews and map out their
travel route at no cost. You can research
and save preferred activities to a collection on your online vacation portfolio,
which can then be shared with your family via email, Facebook or Twitter, making
planning a snap.
3. Communicate budgets
Its important to be open about your
vacation budget and expectations to avoid
any awkward moments and unintended
expenses once youve arrived at your destination. Be sure to talk about who is paying for what, or if it will be split equally.
With so many people involved, the cost of
multigenerational vacations can add up
quickly, and no one wants to be surprised
by going over-budget.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 01-28-2014 / Photo Courtesy Brandpoint
Multigenerationals road trips can be fun with the right planning and mindset.
4. Pack and prepare
Preparing to leave is one of the most
difficult parts of multigenerational travel.
Each age group will need different things
– your toddler needs diapers and her favorite blanket, your teen needs his favorite
mobile device and charger, and the grandparents need to make sure they pack any
necessary medications. Make lists and
start packing early to eliminate the lastminute rush.
If youre driving, make sure the car
gets a tune-up before you leave. If youre
meeting up with the grandparents to use
their RV, remind them to have any necessary maintenance done before you arrive.
Properly winterizing and preparing RVs,
boats and other vehicles is important for
a headache-free multigenerational trip …
and just good sense overall. Check with
your insurance company to see if towing
is covered under your plan in case the
need ever arises.
5. Cherish meal time
In many families, mealtime is when
everyone comes together to share their
days and reconnect, says Henning. On
a trip, this can be at a restaurant, picnic
at the beach, or from the comforts of a
vacation home. Make an effort to enjoy
regional food, shop at the local farmers
market, or cook the meal your family
enjoys most.
6. Expect the unexpected
Remember that nothing is perfect,
including your vacation. Be patient and
understand flexibility will go a long way
toward ensuring a smooth, stress-free
vacation.
Leave time for something to go wrong,
advises Henning. Camera batteries run
out, room keys disappear, and bathroom
breaks happen. Keep in mind that everyone needs some down time, even from the
people they love most.
Make this holiday one to remember by
planning a multigenerational trip now.
These tips will help you create a vacation
itinerary everyone will love, helping to
forge new bonds and traditions while creating memories to last a lifetime.

Simple ways baby boomers can boost heart health
(BPT) – Its rare to find a person who
hasnt been affected by heart disease
in some way. As the leading cause of
death for both men and women in the
United States, according to the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention,
heart disease – and how to avoid it
– should be top of mind, especially for
baby boomers. Beyond scary statistics,
heart health is about being able to live
life to the fullest for as long as possible.
Heart health is directly related to
well-being, says registered dietician
Brooke Joanna Benlifer. A strong and
healthy heart allows one to be more
physically active. Heart health can be
directly influenced by healthy food
choices and an active lifestyle, in addition to emotional well-being.
To help boomers give a big boost to
their heart health, Benlifer offers some
important expert tips:
1. Understand and eat good fats
Unsaturated fats are the good fats,
says Benlifer. They are found in nuts,
avocado, olive oil, flax seeds, hemp
seeds, chia seeds as well as in fatty fish
and fish oils.
While incorporating good fats into
your diet, Benlifer also says its important to avoid bad fats.
Saturated fats are less healthy and
are found in full-fat dairy products and
lard, as well as in fatty cuts of beef. The
worst kinds of fats are the trans fats,
aka partially hydrogenated oils. These
tend to be found in packaged and processed food items, allowing them to be
shelf stable, she says.
2. Eat heart healthy foods
The food you eat affects the health of
your heart as well as your whole body.
Eating nutritious foods helps you look
and feel your best. Top heart healthy
foods include:
Fresh fruits and vegetables
Whole grains/high fiber foods such
as peas, beans and oatmeal
Low-fat dairy products or calciumrich foods
Lean proteins, especially plantbased proteins like pumpkin seeds,
quinoa, soy and legumes
Healthy fats
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 01-28-2014 / Photo Courtesy Brandpoint
A healthy diet and exercises like swimming are some of the ways to keep your heart healthy.
3. Cook the heart healthy way
There are three simple strategies to
use to help you cook – and therefore eat
– the heart healthy way.
First, use olive oil, canola oil or
coconut oil – a healthier saturated fat
– when cooking, says Benlifer. Next,
try to steam and bake foods rather
than deep frying. Finally, use fresh
foods whenever possible and cook at
home!
4. Adopt a heart healthy supplement
routine
It can be difficult to get all the nutrients your body needs simply through
food, so supplements can be a good
option for boomers and busy adults.
Numerous studies have proven heart

healthy benefits of omega-3 fatty acids.
Omega-3s include DHA and EPA, both
healthy fats found in fish oil supplements.
DHA helps keep arteries clear and
reduces inflammation, Benlifer says.
EPA keeps plaque from rupturing. I
use Nordic Naturals fish oil supplements for myself and my family, and
have been doing so for years. I trust
their quality and their commitment to
education and research.
5. Learn to love exercise
Exercise is crucial for both physical
and mental benefits, including stress
reduction. Remember, the heart is a
muscle; aerobic exercise is great for
strengthening the heart.
I recommend, if cleared by ones
doctor, that someone incorporate 30 to
60 minutes of exercise daily into his or
her life, says Benlifer. A combination
of cardiovascular (aerobic) exercise,
strength training and flexibility training, or more restorative movement
(yoga, tai chi, etc.) is important.
Finally, in order for boomers to stay
healthy and keep their heart strong,
Benlifer recommends prioritizing
sleep. Sleep helps the body restore
itself and is also highly correlated with
a healthy weight. The less sleep one
gets, the more likely he or she is to be
overweight and stressed, she says.

Overcoming the top 5 challenges of
being retirement ready in 3 simple steps
(BPT) – Its no secret that Americans arent
saving enough for retirement. Many people are coming up short when it comes
to funding their nest egg. But why is the
problem so wide-spread? Insight can be
found in the human behaviors that tend to
get in the way of saving adequately.
Now is the perfect time to learn more
about the most common hurdles of retirement savings. The experts at Prudential
Retirement note the top five challenges to
being retirement ready include:
1. Living longer
Did you know a baby born today is
more likely to live to 100 than to be born
with blue eyes? The fact is, people are
living longer, and its hard to know how
long youll live. You may live many years
beyond retirement, a time when youre no
longer creating income. The challenge is
we still believe were living to 70 or 75 – but
think about it. How old is the oldest person
you know alive today? Chances are, you
know someone who is well into their 90s.
Saving for retirement now prepares you
for the exciting possibility of having a
longer retirement.
2. Procrastination
Its human nature to procrastinate. And
while some things take the same amount
of time to do whether completed today or
a year from now, others only get harder
to do the longer you delay them. Saving
for retirement is one example – every
year you dont save for retirement is less
money you may have when it comes time
to retire, making it that much more difficult to reach your goals and pursue your
dreams.
3. Optimism
People in general are optimistic, which
is a wonderful quality, except when it
comes to retirement planning. Its easy to
think bad things wont ever happen to us
– including unexpected health issues, loss
of a job, or a bad accident. Its important to
be realistic when planning for retirement,
and always plan for the unexpected.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 06-29-2010 / Photo Submitted
The top five challenges to financial planning include living longer, procrastination, optimism, following the pack and instant gratification.
Understanding these challenges can help you get ready for retirement.
4. Following the pack
Humans are social beings. If enough
people are doing something, we tend to
want to follow because we assume there
must be a good reason. The urge to follow
the pack can get us in trouble, though,
particularly when it comes to saving and
investing. Make sure you define your
own goals for retirement and work with
a financial advisor to create an individual
plan that works for you.
5. Instant gratification
The newest car, computer or video
game – its easy for Americans to feel like
they need to keep up with the Joneses.
Spending too much on impulse purchases
rather than funding savings can be devas-
tating, particularly for your retirement.
Learning to delay gratification and keep a
budget is key.
We all want to imagine living out our
dreams in retirement – rather than worrying about money. Whether youre in your
20s or your 50s, retirement savings should
be top of mind. In addition to knowing and
conquering the top challenges of retirement readiness, here are three simple
things you can do today to ensure youre
on the right path:
1. Workplace retirement opportunities
If your place of work offers a retirement program, sign up for it as soon
as possible. From employer matches to
potential tax benefits, retirement pro-
grams deliver numerous positives for
employees. Remember, compound interest
is an important factor in building retirement income, so it literally doesnt pay to
put saving off.
2. Diversification
Putting all your eggs in one basket is
risky when it comes to retirement funding. A diversified investment strategy can
help protect you from the unexpected.
3. Financial planner
Working with a professional can help
you learn about various savings options
for reaching your personal retirement
goals. The expertise of a financial planner can make the stressful and confusing
process easier.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
The Central Height boys finished last weeks Pleasanton
Mid-Season Tournament 21 which was good for second
place overall.
The format this year was different as the tournament only
had 7 teams. The field was split
into two pools. Central Heights
was placed in the championship pool, which consisted of
the top four seeds. Each pool
played a round robin style tournament.
First up for the Central
Height Vikings was Humboldt
who entered the week ranked
8th in class 3A. The Vikings
played solid basketball, but
came up just short suffering a
76-70 loss.
Central Heights came out
playing well and led after the
first quarter 19-16. Humboldt
showed in the second quarter
why they entered the game
ranked in state. They clicked on
all cylinders offensively scoring
24 points in the second to take a
40-34 lead into the locker room.
During the second quarter
they hit four straight threes
that took the wind out of our
sails. Our kids got to thinking
too much. After they hit the
threes we started over playing
and the cuts killed us, Coach
Rusty Cannady said when talking about his teams second
quarter struggles on defense.
The second half was played
evenly as both teams managed
to score 36 points, but Humboldt
kept the Vikings just out of
reach the rest of the way.
Despite the loss, Central
Heights showed heart and that
they can play with anyone.
Offensively we executed
extremely well. All in all we had
a lot of positives, but still disappointed with the loss, Cannady
said.
Jordan Horstick led all scorers with 23 points.
In the second round of the
tournament, Central Heights
held off Jayhawk-Linn for a 6048 victory.
Central Heights led 20-14
after the first period and 3530 at halftime. Jayhawk-Linn
stayed in the game thanks to
some hot shooting from threepoint range.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Anderson County squared
off with top-seeded Baldwin in
their opening round game of
the Baldwin Invitational and
lost handily 68-37. Baldwin was
ranked 2nd in state in the 4A-1
Division heading into the tournament.
Baldwin controlled the
Bulldogs early as they jumped
out to a commanding 19-3 lead
after the first quarter. Anderson
County stopped the bleeding a
little in the second, but were
still outscored 17-12 and faced
a 36-15 deficit heading into the
locker room.
The AC boys came out and
played much better in the 3rd
quarter, but still were only able
to chip two points off the deficit as they outscored Baldwin
17-15. That momentum was
short-lived though as Baldwin
dominated the fourth quarter,
outscoring the Bulldogs 17-5 to
seal the win.
Leading the way for the
Bulldogs was Spencer Walter
with 16 points. Chase Ratliff
and Jacob Rundle contributed 5 apiece, Eric Small added
4, Derrick Nelson had 3 and
Tanner Lickteig and Tyler
Woodland each scored 2 points.
In the second round ACHS
faced off against Perry
Lecompton and won a close
battle 64-62.
The Bulldogs led early 1711 after the first and 31-23 at
intermission, but the PerryLecompton Kaws werent about
to go down easily.
The Kaws chipped away
tered by 21 for the Bulldogs,
which gave them just enough to
hold on for the 64-62 victory.
Leading all scorers was REAL ESTATE
Walter with 30 points, including
8 three-pointers. Zach Hilliard
scored 7 points, Mason Skiles
had 6, Woodard and Ratliff
added 4 each. Small, Rundle and
Nelson all scored 3 points and
both Lickteig and Ian Comfort
scored 2.
In the 5th place game, ACHS
squared off with the Bishop
Ward Cyclones. The Cyclones
used a strong first half to knock
off the Bulldogs 60-49.
In what seems to be a trend
in their losses, another big first
quarter deficit was too much to
overcome. The Cyclones jumped
out to a 16-6 lead after the first
quarter and led 29-17 at halftime.
Anderson County played
better in the second half but
it was much too little too late.
The Bulldogs outscored the
Cyclones 16-14 in the third quarter, but were outscored 17-16 in
the fourth quarter to account
for the 60-49 final.
