Company says corrosion
caused gas line explosion
Degrading iron pipe
confronts gas suppliers
across the country
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WELDA Officials with
Southern Star Gas Pipeline
say corrosion in a metal pipeline was to blame for an early-morning gas explosion last
September that resulted in no
injuries but lit up the countryside for miles.
Pipeline corrosion is an
industry-wide issue on some
sections of the countrys gas
transportation infrastructure,
which sometimes contains
unpainted or uncoated pipeline
which is basically bare metal
and in some cases a century old.
Jeremy Troutman, Southern
Stars director of Reliability and
Integrity, said in a press release
last week the potential for corrosion on the companys pipelines
prompted Southern Star to take
on a modernization effort over
the next 3-5 years. The release
said Southern Star, along with
other companies, is investing
significant amounts
of capital to upgrade
the nations gas
infrastructure.
The Sept. 22, predawn explosion of
the line in a field
near the 21000 block
of 800 road south of
Welda was visible
and could be seen
from several miles,
frightening neighbors and drivers
along U.S. Highway
169. Several houses in the area were
evacuated temporarily until the
fire was subdued
about a hour later.
No injuries were
reported

Lost juice costs city some $300k year
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT — The City of Garnett
loses as much as $300,000 each
year in electricity costs because
of a lower quality distribution line between Garnett and
Ottawa, but the high cost to fix
the problem means no solution
will immediately be sought.
City Manager Chris Weiner
gave commissioners an update
at the Dec. 26 meeting about
a new distribution agreement
between the city and KCP&L.
Weiner said the new agreement was needed because the
company had made changes to
its transmission and service
providers in recent years, but
in most areas the new agreement varies little from previous agreements or agreements
between KCP&L and other cit-
ies. The agreement only covers
distribution matters, not costs.
The biggest concern, though,
Weiner said, is the citys responsibility to cover the cost of line
loss, or the amount of power
lost as electricity travels along
high-voltage
transmission
lines. The crackling sound

Flu season skipping local schools
Flu shots, hand washing
still the best way to avoid
the bug, experts say
BY MELISSA HOBBS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY Although the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention lists
influenza as being widespread across
most of the United States, including
Kansas, area schools are seeing something different this year. Both USD
365 and USD 479 report that they have
seen very few cases, if any, of influenza, both before Christmas break and
after.
Sickness seems to be more prevalent in the elementary school, said
Crest Superintendent Chuck Mahon.
Even though there has been a lot of
stomach viruses going around, actual
influenza hasnt been much of a problem, according to Crest Elementary
Secretary Gerri Godderz.
Influenza is often mistakenly identified as the cause of vomiting illnesses frequently experienced this
time of year. The term flu is often
used to describe illnesses that cause
nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, but
those symptoms are usually caused
by any number of viruses, bacteria,
or even parasites, according to the
CDC. Traditional influenza, is primarily a respiratory disease whose
symptoms include fever, cough, sore
throat, runny or stuffy nose, and muscle aches.
Although flu reached a seasonal
peak last week according to CDC, USD
365 Superintendent Don Blome reported a different picture for his schools,
There might be some cases, but
apparently not a significant number
at this point. Nothing has been reported to me.

County contends merger

BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City officials in Garnett
and county commissioners were hoping at a meeting last night to resolve
a dispute about upcoming changes
in the joint city/county economic
development agency, after its director recently announced his retirement.
County commissioners two weeks
ago opted to suspend the countys
annual payment of $20,000 to the City
of Garnett for the countys share of
the jointly-funded Anderson County
Development Agency (ACDA), after
taking issue with a plan by Garnett
City Manager Chris Weiner that
would combine two city positions
and place ACDA in the citys chain
of command with the Garnett Area
Chamber of Commerce under the
citys Community Development
Director Susan Wettstein. Desiree
Donovan, Weiner said, had recently
received a promotion to assistant
director of community development
to facilitate the new arrangement.
The change was set in motion by
the announcement by present ACDA

power lines is lost electricity.
Line loss occurs more during
hot days.
The city pays KCP&L for its
electricity starting at a meter
at Ottawa. About 9.8 percent
of the total power the city buys
is lost as the electricity travels
between Ottawa and Garnett.
The city typically spends
between $2 and $3 million on
electricity each year. The average line loss is expected to cost
the city between $250,000 to
$300,000 each year.
The city could lower its
line loss if it could tie in to
a better quality line, but that
was expected to cost about $5
million. Weiner said its not
realistic for the city to afford
such a cost at this time.
It would have much better
reliability and wouldnt have
near the line loss, Weiner
said. Unfortunately, we dont
have much of an avenue at this
point. Its something we can
plan long term. Obviously, if
you can save $300,000 its going
to pay for itself over time, but
in the near future were not
going to resolve the line loss.
Weiner also said he was concerned about another aspect
of the new distribution agreement. KCP&L is not responsible for providing power to the
city in the event of a strike by
KCP&L employees or a natural disaster. The citys power
plant is capable of providing
electricity to the entire city
except the ethanol plant, but at
a much higher cost, he said.
The city likely wont get
a better deal from KCP&L
despite these concerns, City
Attorney Terry Solander told
commissioners. Negotiations
took several months and the
agreement was reviewed by
attorneys for both sides as
well as the Kansas Municipal
Energy Agency and the Federal
Energy Trade Commission.
Its as good as were going
to get or an improvement,
Solander said of the agreement. Were no worse off and
in some cases, were better
off.
Commissioners approved the
agreement.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, January 9, 2018
OPINION
Ecodevo: Like a weed eater
For the City of Garnett and Anderson County
elected leaders, theres no reason to get in a
hurry deciding how to re-configure the city/
county economic development agency after
all, our community hasnt decided what our
mission will be anyway.
The idea of the mission deserves some
thought and foresight and goal setting before
we retool this organization. Its like buying a
weed eater how big are the weeds we need to
cut? How big an area are we cutting? The job we
have defines the tool we need. Those questions
need to be asked and answered about county
development goals before we try to redefine the
effort.
In the realm of economic development for
Anderson County, its been so long since the
community has come together to discuss strategy for our development, most of us have completely forgotten that we even have an economic
development effort at all. Not much in the
way of high profile
events have taken

proactive.
the idea of creating
jobs locally becomes
a front burner issue
again.
Thats been part of the problem with our
ecodevo efforts to date without a common
strategy with goals and a plan of execution and
some way to monitor the outcomes, we end up
being reactive instead of proactive.
So far, from public comments by the Anderson
County Commission, all we know for sure that
we want to do is that we want to do something
but we dont want to go as far as trying to
recruit the Tyson chicken plant.
Thats pretty broad, and it needs to be refined
into an approachable job before we look at
realigning and repurposing our ecodevo efforts.
In fact the lack of definition and strategy is precisely why the city and county are at odds right
now anyway and its because they havent
enjoined a conversation to define that strategy
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
and set those goals for more than 20 years.
If they had done so, thered be no confusion
about Garnett City Manager Chris Weiners
objective in aligning both the Garnett Area
Chamber of Commerce and Anderson County
Development Agency under the direction of the
citys Community Development department.
There would be no question of conflicts of interest by grouping the private membership chamber of commerce with other publicly directed
efforts from city hall, and there would be clear
definitions between community development
and economic development and chamber of
commerce missions.
Within that discussion there are some notable facts: 1) the countys most successful economic development project so far has been the
EKAE ethanol plant, grown from local leadership and private investors and now expanding
into another product line; 2) that downtown
commercial structures in Garnett are falling
into ruin, and thats an indicator of the way our
consumption of goods and services has changed
over a century; 3) that local efforts to promote
entertainment events like community theater,
car shows and the Cornfest Concert on the Hill
have been wildly successful in marketing our
communitys brand, but they havent created
any jobs.
Long term, our goals should end with core
value increases in our tax base, creation of jobs
with opportunity and more money in the bank
for our residents and businesses. Until we have
a plan to get there, any discussion of organizational structure is premature.
We should be going about this like were
building a foundation for a house, not like were
killing snakes.

I bet you havent slept outside on the cold, cold

New film chronicles the man who saved civilization
This years best movie about a spirited band
of resisters fighting an empire of evil isnt the
latest entry in the Star Wars franchise, but
Darkest Hour, an extraordinarily deft and
moving depiction of the outset of Winston
Churchills prime ministership during World
War II.
Cabinet meetings and political intrigue
arent the most natural cinematic material,
although the underlying event in Darkest
Hour is one of the most dramatic in modern
history: One man standing defiant before the
onslaught of an enemy army, rallying his
nation with his willpower and words.
Discounting for Hollywood embellishments, the movie is worthy of this story,
which is high praise indeed. In particular,
Gary Oldmans portrayal of Churchill is so
compelling that the Academy Award for best
actor should be signed, sealed and delivered
to him right now.
Upon taking power, Churchill faced disaster on every front in the war, yet bucked internal political pressure to explore a deal with
Adolf Hitler. In his marvelous history of this
crucial interlude, Five Days in London: May
1940, the great historian John Lukacs writes,
Then and there he saved Britain and Europe,
and Western civilization.
In 1937, Churchills reputation had
been at a low ebb, but he recovered on the
strength of his acuteness about Hitler. When
Neville Chamberlain returned from Munich,
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
Churchill gave a speech in the House of
Commons declaring we have sustained a
total and unmitigated defeat. Britains position slid downward from there.
The same day that Churchill became prime
minister, Hitlers army invaded Western
Europe in earnest, sweeping all before it and
eventually trapping the British at Dunkirk.
Given the circumstances, the desire of
Viscount Halifax, Churchills inherited foreign secretary, to explore peace terms wasnt
unreasonable, just profoundly wrong.
Churchill opposed any deal. He was convinced, Lukacs notes, that such a settlement, under any conditions, could not be
counter-balanced by a maintenance, let alone
a guarantee, of British liberty and independence. Churchill bent a little toward Halifax
when he initially felt it politically necessary,
but ground him down and ultimately outmaneuvered him.
In a key episode, Churchill went to the larger Cabinet and won overwhelming approval for his stalwartness. Here, he made his
famous statement, We shall go and we shall
fight it out, here or elsewhere, and if at last
the long story is to end, it were better it should
end, not through surrender, but only when we
are rolling senseless on the ground.
After the war, Churchill wrote of the reaction of his colleagues: Quite a number seemed
to jump up from the table and came running
to my chair, shouting and patting me on the
back. There is no doubt had I at this juncture
faltered at all in leading the nation, I should
have been hurled out of office.
He didnt falter. Churchill tapped into and
built up the resolve of the British people.
There was a white glow, he wrote later,
overpowering, sublime, which ran through
our island from end to end.
The so-called Great Man theory of history
might be overly simplistic, but history indisputably has its great men. Darkest Hour
does justice to one of them.

Kansas new state political topic: sexual harrassment
Starting at 2 p.m. Jan 8, though hopefully
years earlier, the Legislature will be galvanized over the issue of respectful interaction
between legislators, legislative staff, lobbyists
and young legislative interns.
The issue, of course, is the result of complaints of sexual harassment or obviously
improper interaction between interns and
others in the Statehouse. The Womens
Foundation of Kansas City, which is advising
legislative leadership on interaction in the
workplaceyes, the Statehouse is a workplacelast week issued recommendations for
the 2018 Legislature, which starts Jan. 8.
This issue is atop finding an answer to the
likely $600 million price tag for a constitutional school funding formula, seeing a potential
change of occupants in the governors office,
plus highways, health care for the poor, just
about everything else the state does.
The sexual harassment issue is focused
on those college kids who are getting their
feet wet in seeing how a legislature actually
operates, the ins and outs and shuffles and
tradeoffs and concessions made almost daily
by people who are elected to the Legislature.
Its different than in the schoolbooks.
The issue itself evaporates if Statehouse
denizens would just behave the way their
mothers taught them, be polite and respectful,
and not use ones authority to harass or emba
rass those who arent elected by a majority
of voters in their districts. Were guessing
that no candidates palm cards note that the
office-seeker is handsy.
Just telling the occupants of the Statehouse
to act right and respectfully isnt going to
solve the problem. The Womens Foundation
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
of Kansas City is going to find itself with some
political power to dispense because among its
recommendations is to increase the number of
women in leadership roles at the Capitol.
Leadership in the Statehouse is determined
by votes, or almost as often by close working
relationships based on trustand votes.
What seems simple good behavior becomes
more difficult when fraternization includes
interns, legislative staff, elected officials and
lobbyists. Its the hall talk, the dinners and
drinks, the fraternization that has long been
the oil in the machine. There is good respectful fraternization and the other kind based on
gender and power.
Oh, and the Womens Foundation is also
suggesting accountability and monitoring of
sexual harassment, ranging from definitions
of sexual harassment to safe reporting of that
conduct, to representation and respect for
complainants and consequences for violators.
Oh, and no secret settlement deals to hide
those who harass others.
Lots of work, but it all comes down to
respectful behavior, and finding some way to
define that.
The issue is serious, needs to be dealt
with, but it also provides a grandstand for
legislators who offer up bills dealing with the
subject and, of course, higher visibility for
the Womens Foundation which wants more
women in leadership roles in government,
elected and appointed, and a broader base
of government leaders that for decades in
Kansas has been powerful, or at least relatively powerful, men.
What happens? Look for lawmakers to
find ways to take public, well-orchestrated
positions in favor of respectful treatment of
women in the Statehouse. Ever think that just
being respectful like they were taught as children turns out to be a campaign issue? Most
probably wish that it wasnt necessary.
Kansans, of course, want the collegiate
legislative interns and others respected. The
trick for lawmakers will be to balance needed
work on the issue with an otherwise full plate
of spending, budgeting, and representing and
protecting their districts. Very little is very
simple in the Statehouse. Well see how this
comes out

again them. Nobodys going to change anybody
elses mind. Thank you.
I hope someone will be watching over this project to update the county courthouse and that
they do a better job than we did on the county jail
fiasco. I know Mr. Hicks supported the jail which
is why we probably never saw an article that
showed all the extra dollars it took to fix all the
electrical problems and what-not that happened
after they built this thing. I hope this bunch of
county commissioners has more sense.

Cow Herd Health Night set
ACHS presents A Night of Shorts
January 13 – one act student directed plays
Anderson County High
School Drama Club is proud
to present its annual 2018
Student-Directed
One-Act
Plays featuring five one-acts,
Captain Dangerous, Dinner
with the MacGuffins, He Said,
She Said, Im a Teenager Get
Me Out of This Family, and
V.I.L.L.A.I.N.S.
In Captain Dangerous by
Kristi Thielen , on a dark and
stormy night, the drama group
at Fiddlesticks High School is
performing an exciting new
play, Captain Dangerous,
and the local theatre critic
has shown up to observe the
final dress rehearsal. But the
performance is more disaster
than danger with crew members and even actors missing,
misplaced props, major miscues, and complete miscommunication! The stage manager must become the director
(Korey Rohde) and one of the
prominent actresses becomes
the stage manager (Jenna
Schmit). This is definitely a
performance to challenge that
old saying, the show must go
on! If the final dress was this
bad, how are they ever going to
get through opening night?!
Dinner with the MacGuffins
by Jeff Grove and Chris
Sheppard, at first glance
appears to be a typical family comedy: teenage James
(Russ Peterson) and girlfriend
Karen (Maggie Reinert) try to
make out one afternoon, only
to face repeated interruptions
by other members of James
family. But the ultimate interruption comes when a cell
phone goes off in the audience, breaking the fourth
wall so that James can see
the spectators. As James tries
to convince his increasingly
worried family that a wall is
missing from their house, and
that people are watching them,
the play takes more left turns
than Bugs Bunny should have
taken at Albuquerque — until
it reaches a happy (if twisted)
ending.
In He Said, She Said, by
Reid Conrad, Boy Meets Girl!
Boy Loses Girl! But will Boy
get Girl back again? Nothing
is that easy. Through Barbara
(Gabby Spring) and Walter
(Owen Lutz), co-narrators,
a boy (Nick Lybarger) and
girl (Averi Wilson) demonstrate love from the basic
Neanderthal beginnings, to the
use of Shakespeare to describe
it, then to the Dark Ages, World
War II, and into the future all
while an ensemble cast brings
humor and action onto the
stage.
Next is, Im a Teenager
Get Me Out of This Family,
by Jim Garvey. Living with
parents can be rough — especially when Mom (Bethany
Powls) and Dad (Will Mechnig)
are nothing but ordinary. So
when Julie (April Powls) and
her mother get into a battle
over curfew, Julie convinces
her brother Johnnie (Hayden
Hermann) to hold interviews
for new and improved parents.
Not to be outdone, Mom and
Dad conduct their own interviews for new children. Faced
with interviewees from a militant father (Mike Sibley) to a
get-rich-quick-scheming child
(Nate Gainer), ordinary
doesnt look so bad anymore.
Finally,
there
is
V.I.L.L.A.I.N.S. by Lavinia
Roberts. V.I.L.L.A.I.N.S. is
a support group for recovering villains who realize their
lives have become unmanageable and that they wont
live happily ever after unless
they change their ways. Gisela
(Lilly Spring), the evil fairy
from Sleeping Beauty leads
the group, which includes
Snow Whites vain stepmother
(Adri Pedrow), a pack of wolves
(Spencer Hermann, Todd
Crawford, Lizzy Comfort), a
troll (Morgan Hall-Kropf), a
wicked witch (Katelyn Phelps),
Cinderellas evil stepmother (Becky Kropf), and many
others. To motivate the villains to continue on their path
to living happily ever after,
Gisela has invited some inspirational speakers including
a full-time fairy godmother
(Jenna Alexander), Prince
Charming (Solomon Kinder),
and Jack (Michael Porrett)
from Jack and the Beanstalk
fame. However, the meeting is
interrupted by the Pied Piper
(Raven Maley), who offers
transcendental music and hyp-
nosis as a cure for villainy, and
some fairies (Owen Lutz, Eddie
Gruver, Riley Hedges) looking
for their F.A.R.T.S. meeting.
The plays are directed by
Katelyn Phelps, Jade Todd,
Hayden Hermann, Becky
Kropf, Jenna Schmit, Lizzy
Comfort, Kate Deiker, Owen
Lutz, Eddie Gruver, Waltham
Farren and Vicki Markham.
The cost to attend is $5.
Performances will take place at
7:00 pm on Saturday, January
13, at the Anderson County
High School Auditorium.

Crest comeback falls short
COLONY – The Crest Lancers
squared off with the NortheastArma Vikings last Tuesday
and despite their best efforts
at a comeback in the fourth,
the Lancers fell just short losing 56-50 in front of their home
crowd.
Crest started off slowly offensively and found themselves in
a 12-8 hole after the first period.
NE-Arma kept that same
four point lead heading into
intermission as both teams tallied 10 points in the second.
Northeast-Arma imposed
their will in the third quarter
outpacing the Lancers 18-11 to
jump out to a 40-29 lead heading
into the fourth.
The Lancers scored 21 points
in the final quarter but still
came up just short in their
attempt at a comeback.

GARNETT – Garret Edens of
Anderson County scored just
four points but was the hero in
a 78-77 victory over Wellsville
Friday night.
Eden was in the right place
at the right time as he found
himself in the perfect position
to score the game winning
points on a rebound and a put
back with one second remaining.
It was a close game throughout but the Bulldogs were still
facing a 56-48 deficit heading
into the fourth quarter.
Anderson County would
erupt for 30 points in the final
period to pull off the stunner.
Carson Powelson led the
Bulldogs with 21 points on the
night, including 13 points in
the fourth quarter. Powelson
knocked down three key
three-pointers during the rally.
Five Bulldogs in all scored
in double figures on the night.
John Rundle and Justin
Rockers each scored 15 and
Damone Kueser and Kass
Allnutt both chipped in with 11
points.
It was a great win, but more
importantly though, the win
moved the Bulldogs to 2-0 in

COLONY – . The Crest Lancers
played a solid first half before
letting things get away from
them in the second half in a
disappointing 44-32 loss to the
Northeast-Arma Vikings last
Tuesday night at home.
Crest played great from the
opening tip en route to opening
up a 10-4 lead after the first and
stretching their advantage out
to 19-11 at intermission.
The Vikings would be the
squad that would come out
and dominate the second half
though.
NE-Arma knotted the score
at 30 heading into the final
quarter before the Lancers
were stymied in the fourth
scoring just 2 points as the
Vikings pulled away.
Despite the defeat, Godderz
continued her solid playing
scoring 18 points on the night.
Strickler and Holloran led
the Lancers in rebounding
with 9 and 8 rebounds respectively.

Hermreck led the way for

night.
Despite the defeat, head
coach Travis Hermreck didnt
think the night was a complete
loss as he feels his team showed
some positive signs moving
into the second half of the season.
It is hard to feel too good
after a loss, but we did play
with a lot more energy and
chemistry tonight. It was definitely a step in the right direction, coach Hermreck said.
We did a decent job against
the box-and-one defense,
Hermreck stated regarding the
opposition keying on Hermreck
on the evening.
Despite the Vikings efforts,
Hermreck still led the Lancers
with 21 points on the night.
Hermreck said, We had
some kids step up and get some
tough buckets when we needed
them.
The Lancers just didnt
have an answer to the pressure
defense of NE-Arma.
Our achilles heel tonight
was turnovers and interior
defense, Hermreck added.

AG Derek Schmidt, Johnson and
Sedgwick County DAs propose
strengthening elder abuse laws
important that our prosecutors
have tools available to them
to successfully prosecute those
who take advantage of or abuse
Kansas seniors.
As of 2015, Kansas is home
to about 397,000 people age 65
and older, according to the
U.S. Census Bureau. A Wichita
State University study projects
that population to more than
double over the next 50 years.
This legislative proposal
will strengthen our ability to
protect some of the most vulnerable members of our community and hold their abusers
accountable, Howe said.
Sedgwick County was
pleased to contribute to this
important legislation that will
serve to enhance the safety of
Kansas seniors, Bennett said.
Schmidt is currently serving as president of the National
Association of Attorneys
General. During his presidency, the organization is focusing on helping states gather

Stephen Howe and Sedgwick
County District Attorney Marc
Bennett today announced that
they plan to ask the Kansas
Legislature to strengthen the
states laws against elder abuse
during the 2018 legislative session, which begins next week.
Schmidt, Howe and Bennett
said their proposal would
expand the definition of criminal mistreatment of an elder
person to include infliction
of physical injury, unreasonable confinement or unreasonable punishment. It would
also include violations of the
guardian or conservator laws.
The current statute prohibits
financial abuse but not physical abuse.
As the population of senior
citizens in Kansas continues
to increase, we need to update

in Manhattan in April.

Commissioners voted to purchase a 2004 Ford F550 truck

much cheaper than assembling
separately. It is to be paid out of
the Rural Fire fund.

January is National Birth Defects Prevention Month
January is National Birth
Defects Prevention Month,
and the Kansas Department
of Health and Environment
(KDHE) is actively working to
raise awareness of how common birth defects are and what
steps can help to prevent them.
In the United States, a baby
is born with a birth defect
every 4 minutes – about
120,000 babies each year – with
around 1,150 cases occurring
in Kansas. Birth defects are the
most common cause of death
in the first year of life and the
second most common cause of
death in children aged one to
four years.
KDHE is participating
in National Birth Defects
Prevention Month by coordi-
nating with local health agencies and healthcare providers
to encourage prevention and
awareness of birth defects. In
addition to its efforts in prevention, KDHE also offers support
to children with special health
care needs. Further information on services can be found at
www.kdheks.gov/shcn.
Although not all birth
defects can be prevented, many
steps can be taken to increase
a womans chance of having a
healthy baby. It is important
to prevent those infections that
can increase the risk of birth
defects and other health problems for mothers and babies.
Here are some helpful tips
for pregnant women or women
who may become pregnant:
Get vaccinated
Get the flu shot and the
whooping cough vaccine.
Become up-to-date with all
vaccines before getting pregnant.
Prevent insect bites
Use insect repellent.
Wear long-sleeved shirts and
long pants when outside.
Consider avoiding travel to
areas with Zika virus.
Practice good hygiene
Wash your hands often with
soap and water.
Avoid putting a young childs
cup or pacifier in your mouth.
Talk to your healthcare provider
Ask about how you can prevent infections, such as Zika
virus.
Discuss how to prevent sexually transmitted infections.
In addition to following
these tips to prevent infections,
all women capable of becoming
pregnant should eat a healthy
diet, be physically active, and
take a multivitamin with 400
micrograms (mcg) of folic acid
every day whether they are currently planning a pregnancy or
not. These steps can go a long
way in promoting a healthy
you and a healthy baby. More
information about the Kansas
Birth Defects Program, including national resources, can be
found at www.kdheks.gov/bfh/
birth_defects.htm.
Review your insurance, investment
coverage as you begin the new year
As we begin 2018, it is a
good idea to evaluate your
insurance and investment
coverage. With the changing
insurance needs of families,
and the changing landscape of
the insurance industry, it is
now even more important that
you stay on top of your financial decisions for choices and
coverage.
Our staff at the Kansas
Insurance Department (KID)
and the Office of the Kansas
Securities Commissioner offer
these tips and reminders to
help with your review.
Homeowners/Renters
Insurance
This is a great time to
update your home inventory
and make sure your homeowners or renters policy is current
for your needs. For example,
if your holiday decorations
are still out of storage, take
some photos or video of them.
Note any antique items and
their value so you can talk
with your insurance agent to
ensure that they are properly
covered.
Now that your gifts are
open, remember to add them
to your home inventory, too.
Include as many details as
you can and take a photo of
each item. Most basic home
insurance policies have standard limits for big-ticket items
like electronics, art, jewelry or
sporting equipment. You may
need special coverage, so be
sure to call your agent as soon
as possible to discuss changes
for your policy.
If you are starting a home
inventory from scratch,
the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners
(NAIC) free smartphone app,
myHOME Scr.APP.book, takes
some of the headache out of
the process. Download the app
for your smartphones. Also, on
our ksinsurance.org website,
you can print a hard copy of
our Personal Home Inventory
booklet; or, you can call us
at 800-432-2484 to request a
mailed hard copy.
Auto Insurance
Winter can be a challenge for
all drivers. Whether you are
trying to escape the weather
for some place warmer or just
preparing for another drive to
work in the snow, there are
a few insurance items you
should review.
INSURANCE MATTERS
KEN SELZER, Kansas Insurance Commissioner
Make sure your coverage is
appropriate for your life situation. Liability is the part of
the policy that pays for any
injury or damage if you cause
an accident. If your liability
insurance is too low, it is possible that you could be sued
for any damages above your
liability limits.
Also take a look at your
deductibles for comprehensive
and collision coverage. This
is the amount you will pay if
your car is damaged or totaled
without fault of another driver. Raising or lowering deductible amounts can affect your
premium.
Before hitting the road,
make sure you have a copy
of your insurance card and
your insurance agent or companys number in the car. It
is also a good idea to have a
way to record details of an
accident if you are in one. The
NAIC smartphone application WreckCheck walks you
through the process of gathering information following an
accident. You can then email
your notes directly to your
agent.
Health Insurance
Many families recently
went through the open enrollment process for their health
insurance at work, through
the online insurance marketplace or through Medicare
Open Enrollment. This means
you may have new insurance
cards and paperwork coming
in the mail. It is a good idea to
get all this information together before winter illnesses or
accidents happen.
Make sure to check your
medical provider lists to verify
that visits to your doctor and
any specialists are still covered by your policy, because
in-network or preferred provider lists could change. Also
read through your documents
and make note of your copays
for in-network and out-of-net-
work providers so you are not
surprised later.
When you are planning a
vacation away from home,
check with your insurance
carrier to identify urgent care
centers and hospitals that
accept your insurance coverage near your destination and
along the way. Be sure to ask
your carrier about applicable
co-pays and deductibles.
Investments
The start of the new year is
a great time to evaluate your
investments and determine
whether you are on track to
meet your goals. Schedule an
appointment with your financial professional to review
your investment objectives
and your portfolios performance; re-evaluate your asset
allocation to determine if
adjustments are needed; and
ask questions about investments.
Do the homework of reviewing your brokerage account
statements before you meet
with your financial professional. Brokerage account state-
ments, mailed either monthly
or quarterly, help you keep
score of your investments
activity and performance.
Report any discrepancies to
your financial professional
right away, and always put
your concerns in writing.
Also, maintain a copy of your
correspondence. For more, go
to www.KansasMoney.gov .

Commissioner of Insurance
TOPEKA, Kan. Jan. 5. 2018
Tragedy struck on Kansas
roadways more often in 2017, as
457 people perished in crashes.
This is up 6.5 percent from the
2016 annual total of 429 fatalities and up 28.7 percent from
2015, when there were 355 traffic fatalities on Kansas roads.
Nobody wants to see these
higher fatality statistics. They
are more than just numbers,
they are real people who lost
their lives and left many grieving families, said Shawn
Steward, spokesperson for
AAA Kansas. But this serves
as a good reminder that there
are things we can do as drivers
to be safer behind the wheel
and avoid many of these tragic
crashes.
AAA Kansas offers the
following Driving Safety
Resolutions for 2018 to promote
safer roadways and driver/passenger safety:
Slow down. Follow speed
limits, which are set to promote safety in ideal road conditions. Pay special attention
to construction zones and
adverse weather conditions
that require slower speeds.
Put the phone down and
just drive. Distracted driving,
most often because of texting or
using smartphones, is a major
factor in traffic crashes. Use
phone features such as Do
Not Disturb While Driving
on newer iOS operating systems — that block incoming text
messages and app notifications
while you are driving to prevent the temptation to use the
phone while behind the wheel.
Limit other distractions.
Beyond phones, other things
such as the stereo, navigation
system, eating and even personal conversations with passengers, can take your attention away from the road. Limit
these while you are driving.
Buckle Up. According to
Kansas crash statistics, of
the people who died in traffic crashes from 2006-2016, 61
percent were not wearing seatbelts. Seat belts save lives.
Dont drive impaired.
Never get behind the wheel
while drunk, buzzed or under
the influence of illegal drugs.
There are always resources
available designated driver,
taxi or rideshare service, or a
friend or family member for
a safe ride. Prescription drugs
and their interactions can
also cause impairment. Check

how medications may affect
you and your driving.
Wellsville native files
for Kansas house
WELLSVILLE Mark Samsel,
an attorney at the Lathrop Gage
law firm has filed to run for the
Republican nomination for the
5th District in the Kansas House
on August 7, 2018. The District
includes parts of Anderson,
Franklin,
Linn,
and
M i a m i
Counties,
including
the cities of
Osawatomie,
G a r n e t t ,
P a r k e r ,
C o l o n y ,
Samsel
Rantoul,
Westphalia,
Lane, Princeton, Greeley,
Richmond, and Samsels hometown of Wellsville.
With our current State
Representative running for U.S.
Congress, a vacancy was created
in my hometown district. There
is no greater personal and professional privilege than giving back
to the communities and people
I love and the neighbors who
helped raise me, including the
distinct honor of seeking to represent them in Topeka, Samsel
said.
He continued, As a high school
athlete, I developed relationships
with other players, teachers,
and coaches across this region.
Samsel is now frequently seen
on the court or field, refereeing
youth and high school basketball
and soccer. From enforcing the
rules on one court to litigating
them in another, both sports and
the law have taught him to call
it both ways, ref! He now looks
forward to the opportunity of
helping write the rules and solve
problems in Topeka beginning
in January 2019. Samsel added,
Understanding and empathy
for all sides of an issue helps to
arrive at a better solution for
all Kansans and for the 5th
District.
Samsel is a strong supporter
of all education, public, private,
and home school, and including
early childhood, K-12, and higher
education and trade schools. He
recognizes its role in recruiting
and retaining
a skilled workforce in rural
Kansas and beyond. While
the legislatures perspective
on responsible governing has
improved since the 2016 election cycle, more work can be
done, specifically with regard to
our States physical and mental
health infrastructure, Samsel
noted. I want to work with
change-agents in the legislature
to continue forward progress on
these issues which hit close to
home for my future
constituents in Osawatomie and
the surrounding communities
which staff and serve the facility, he said.
Beyond his legal career,
Mark serves as a member
of the Southwest Johnson
County Economic Development
Corporation, the KC Sports
Commission, and KC Scholars,
and he volunteers for youth clinics and the Blue Valley School
Districts renowned Center for
Advanced Professional Studies
(CAPS).
Samsel graduated from
Missouri Valley College, where
he was subsequently named
their 2015 Outstanding Young
Alumnus for his personal and
professional achievements and
his humanitarian contributions to society, and from the
University of Kansas School
of Law, where he was on the
Kansas Law Review. He has been
named a Mo/Kan SuperLawyers
Rising Star since 2014.

Grassroots participation
The 2018 Kansas legislative
session convenes this week
as legislators will consider
many health-related topics.
At the same time, they will
struggle with other complex
issues, including development
of a new school finance formula as ordered by the Kansas
Supreme Court.
While some would argue the
largest influence on our states
legislature comes from special
interest groups, members of
the Kansas House and Senate
maintain constituents exert
the most.
In our nations capital,
Congressional members will
tell you the same thing. That
said, this is where an active
organization, like a farm, business or commodity group, can
make a difference.
However, its not enough
to be an organization with a
large membership. While this
has political impact, it can be
felt only when the organization
can deliver grassroots support
that is seen, touched and felt by
elected officials.
Having access to elected
officials is not enough either.
Unless an organization marshals people to act, it is a
sleeping giant with little clout.
Once an organizations leaders deliver a grassroots message on a consistent basis, the
perception the group delivers
becomes reality.
One of the best ways a grassroots organization can impact
politicians is to identify the

strongest leaders. An effective
grassroots organization is one
that can encourage people to
fill a room, write letters, send
electronic messages, work on
a campaign or seek people outside of the organization who
will become allies and support
its policies. With a network
like this, the group can literally touch thousands of people across the state who will,
in turn, notify legislators and
members of Congress.
Two kinds of people comprise most grassroots organizations. The first is the quality contact. The second is the
quantity contact.
Quality contacts are individuals who have a special
rapport with elected officials.
They know the legislator personally. When the legislator
comes back to his/her district,
the quality contact takes the
time to visit with the elected
official.
Quality contacts take trips
to Topeka and Washington,
D.C. to visit with elected officials on their political turf.
They meet and develop a working relationship with the rep-
resentatives staff.
When issues that affect their
organization arise, the staffer or politician will pick up
the phone and ask, What do
you think of this issue? What
would be a reasonable stance
for me to take?
Once quality leaders are
surfaced, they must expand
and seek other leaders. That
is where quantity comes into
play.
Winning is intoxicating.
Nothing is more gratifying
than to recognize people for
their support in influencing
and helping enact legislation.
Active participation, even
on the losing side, will bring
satisfaction and will encourage
volunteers to come back again
and again.
But winning requires an
organizations time, energy
and leadership. It requires
power, a willingness to participate and the resolve to do the
job.
Any organization with
such a structure, power and
enterprise can persuade its
Legislature and Congress to
protect its interests if it marshals a grassroots campaign
built on active, involved members.

A New Years Resolution
As I place the 2018 calendar on the nail one wonders
what lies ahead. Every New
Years many people make
resolutions determined to
change their life in some
way. I have found that the
intersection of the old and
new year is a good time for
self-examination. Now the
winds of self-examination
can get very rough, but I
propose that most New Years
resolutions are the result of
self-examination just not very
personal.
The Bible has much to
say concerning self-examination. In Lamentations 3:40,
Jeremiah the prophet speaking to the Israelites concerning their complaining says,
Instead (instead of complaining) let us test and examine
our ways. Let us turn back
to the LORD. I believe what
the prophet is referring to
here is that complaining is an
impulsive reaction because
we feel something has happened which should not have
happened. Jeremiah is saying
examine yourself before you
pass blame. It is much easier
to look outside of ourselves
than to look within ourselves
for the reason.

American red squirrels take a break to eat while trying to survive the
bitter cold sub-zero temperatures that hit Garnett in recent weeks.
Togetherness 2018
I bet almost everyone in
Anderson County are familiar
with these little rascals that are
pictured above.
I know, I know you are saying or at least thinking, Why
is that nut feeding them squirrels anyway? Well, I guess its
because I have a soft spot for
wildlife, after all they are part
of Gods creation and I feel they
deserve to eat, just like I do.
This is especially true when its
below zero outside.
American red squirrels are
medium sized diurnal (daytime
active) mammals, that defend
a year-around exclusive territory. Recently, American red
squirrels have been expanding
their range to include primarily hardwood areas.
American red squirrels are
primarily grain eaters, but
they also eat springtime buds,
berries, flowers, leaves, some
mushrooms and bird eggs, etc.
Females mate at 1-2 years of
age for only one day with 4-16

31-35 days, litter sizes range
from 1 to 5.
American red squirrels
experience severe early mortality (on average only 22% survive to 1 year of age). Maximum
life span is 8 years.
Even though red squirrels
are abundant, in 1987 the state
of Arizona listed them as an

FLU…
FROM PAGE 1
dence of flu reported at the
local Family Care Center.
Flu season occurs in the
United States in the fall and
winter and peaks sometime
between December and
February. The impact of each
flu season varies, but hundreds of people die yearly
due to the illness. CDC statistics show that 99 people died
during the 2016-2017 flu season with influenza being the
direct cause of death. So far
for the 2017-2018 flu season,
six people have died directly
from influenza.
To prevent becoming
infected with influenza, the
CDC recommends three
things. First, get vaccinated.
Everyone six months of age
and older should get vaccinated by the end of October
according to their recommendations. Although there are
many different flu viruses,
the vaccine protects against

those that studies show will
be the most common each
year.
Second, they recommend
avoiding close contact with
people that are sick, and if
you are showing symptoms
yourself, to stay home for at
least 24 hours after your fever
is gone. Cover your nose and
mouth when you sneeze or
cough, wash your hands frequently with warm water
and soap, avoid touching
your eyes, nose, and mouth,
and keep surfaces clean and
disinfected.
Lastly, if you get the flu,
antiviral drugs can be used
to treat your illness. These
drugs, available by prescription only, can shorten
the time that you are sick
or lessen the symptoms. For
best results, antiviral drugs
should be started within
two days of when symptoms
begin.

WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
There exists no better time
or place for self-examination
than at the communion table.
The Apostle Paul speaking to
the Corinthians in Cor. 11:28
says, That is why you should
examine yourself before eating the bread and drinking the
cup. This is a critical time
for self-examination . The
apostle clearly stresses the
importance of this sacrament
in the previous verse when
he explains the consequences
of failing to come to the table
in a worthy manner. Paul
says, So anyone who eats this
bread and drinks this cup of
the Lord unworthily is guilty
of sinning against the body
and blood of the Lord.
We come to the table in
remembrance of what Jesus
accomplished in his sinless
life and atoning death on the
cross. We should use this
opportunity to examine our
lives not in relation to others
but in relation to the life Jesus
lived. God has not demanded perfection from us but he
has declared in Isaiah 45:22-23,
Turn to me and be saved, all
the ends of the earth! For I am
God, and there is no other. By
myself I have sworn; from my
mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not
return: To me every knee shall
bow, every tongue shall swear
allegiance . It was Spurgeon
who said concerning the rough
winds of self-examination. It
is not my aim to introduce
doubts and fears into your
mind; I rather hope that the
rough winds of self-examination may help drive them
(doubts and fears) away.
This year consider some
serious
self-examination.
Some quiet time with the Lord
allowing him to reveal himself
to you will result in moving
closer to Gods will for your
life.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, January 9, 2018
30 years ago: Body of
missing woman found
in well near Colony
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 01-09-2018 / Photo Submitted
Scout Troop # 126 of Garnett volunteers pose in front of the Richmond Museum after a morning of
moving boxes and objects to storage in preparation for a new floor in the Museum. Front row from
left: Orvel Broce, Joseph Stout, Nathan Wiltsey, Garrison Parks. Back row from left: Aaron Kubacka,
Daniel Dougherty, Sam Wood. Isaac Kubacka, assistant Scoutmaster, also helped and took this

Garnett Scouts provide muscle
for Richmond Museum move
The Richmond Community
Museum needed lots of help as
boxes were packed and had to
be moved to storage in preparation for removing the failing wooden floor and pouring
a new concrete floor. It took
just one contact with Garnett
Boy Scout Troop 126.and
presto! came the answer.
Seven Scouts and Assistant
Scoutmaster Isaac Kubacka
arrived to provide the youthful muscles and energy to get
many boxes and other containers of Museum materials
moved to the back, and some to
upstairs, of the building.
We really appreciate the
Scouts work, said Dennis
Peters who co-chairs the floor
project with Brent Randal.
We dont have the manpower
to get this done without others
helping, he added, And those
Scouts were the perfect answer
to this project.
The young men of Troop 126
perform a staggering amount
of community service hours,
said Kubacka, with this being
just one of many projects
theyve helped with. Working
guys need to eat, and on this
day lunch was provided by
Kim Wood at their home in
Richmond.
Before that work day,
Peters, along with Mary
Tooley, Charlie Prue, Pat
Vining, Sam Wood, Sarah
Wood, and Hannah Jumet, all
of Richmond, had boxed a lot
of Museum things, but there
was much yet to be done on the
Scouts work day.
Since then, Paul Peters of
Louisburg, Mike Peters of Blue
Mound; Dennis Peters, Brent
Randel and Lester Wuertz who
are all three Museum board
members, moved shelves and
display cases, some of which
are quite heavy. The altar rails,
which were originally in St.
Therese Catholic Church in
Richmond, and the built-in
office counters will be more
challenging to move, but that,
too, will be accomplished, said
Dennis Peters.
Brent Randel will remove
the current floor on January 12,
13, and 14. Again, any men who
are up to that kind of work are
welcome to help, said Peters.
DISPUTE…
FROM PAGE 1
director Dennis Arnold last
October that he would retire at
the end of January. Last nights
meeting of the city and county
commissions was the first since
the announcement and the first
since the county opted to hold
back the payment.
Weiner told county commissioners at their Jan. 2 meeting he had come up with the
plan because he didnt think
the organization would be able
to replace Arnold with an individual of his caliber, due to the
fact that the organization was
budgeted with only $40,000 in
city and county funds. ACDA
presently shares Arnold with
Linn County in economic development duties, where he has
been the paid director of development efforts there for more
than 20 years. Weiner said having all the local development
entities under one roof, would
streamline those efforts.
In my view the entities
have the same goal in mind,
Weiner told commissioners.
The chambers board of
directors voted in February
2015 to move its operations
under the citys administrative
umbrella after years of financial struggle. Chamber director Donovan is a city employee
with half-time duties for the
chamber, and the chamber
reimburses half of Donovans
compensation according to the
agreement. The city/chamber
partnership agreement expires
Dec. 31 of this year , according
to the initial agreement, with
an option for renewal.
But the county leaders told
Weiner they saw major conflicts of interest in having
economic development and
Chamber of Commerce functions housed under the same
roof due to possible competitive
strife in recruiting or assisting
business to come to the area
which might already have local
competitors, who themselves
could be dues-paying members
of the chamber of commerce.
Were on the same page
until it comes to the chamber,
said commission chairman Les
McGhee. You cant do it without a conflict of interest.
McGhee, who is the countys
representative on the ACDA
advisory board which advises the director, said the board
itself was split on the city proposal, and that a recent ACDA
board meeting which usually
lasts less than an hour went on
for three hours of discussion.
County commissioners said
they were unsure what independent course they might
choose to go for economic
development, but said they
might use the reclaimed funds
to engage independent economic development consultants.

Concrete will be poured in
late January, probably, and
given time to cure before the
job of returning everything has
to be done.
To add a concrete floor is
an expensive project for the
small Museum which is supported entirely with donations.
The Museum received a grant
from The Franklin County
Foundation, but otherwise, is
using much of its savings.
Its not wise to deplete the
savings account too low, said
treasurer Kelley Hennessey,
so we are hoping more donations will come in from folks
who have visited the Museum
and enjoyed the many items of
Richmond history, and from
those who know how important
it is to preserve this history.
Anyone who would like
to help with the project is
encouraged to mail a check to
the Museum, P. O. Box 284,
Richmond, KS, 66080. All contributions are greatly appreciated. The Richmond Community
Museum is a 501(3) organization.

Ethanol plants have a powerful thirst for water, and
shortly after the East Kansas
Agri-Energy plant went online
in Garnett there were concerns about the plant pushing
the citys water system to the
brink. The real facts, however,
arent as bleak. And for the
city, the water supply arrangement for the ethanol plant has
been a pretty profitable bargain. Those facts, compiled
by the city in a recent consumption report, show EKAE
doesnt pose a threat to the
city water system or the rural
water districts the city provides with water.

Rural residents in Anderson
County who havent gotten
used to the idea of using their
new 5-digit rural address now
have a little less than a year to
do so in order to avoid interruption in their mail delivery.
But the sooner the address
is posted on mail boxes and
homes, the better the chance
that fire trucks or ambulances
can find local homes quicker
in the event of an emergency.

Criminal inquisition papers
were filed Wednesday in the
homicide case of Hannah
Ziggler, whose decomposed
body was found in a Colony
area well in November.
According to Anderson County
Attorney Herman Loepp, the
inquisition will aid the Kansas
Bureau of Investigation in
the investigation of Zigglers
death. The investigation
began on November 16, after
Zigglers body was discovered
by hunters in an abandoned
well about a mile and a half
northwest of Lone Elm. Ziggler
had been reported missing
March 15, 1986, after she failed
to show up for work at her job
at the Halfway House Tavern
in Colony.

Garnett lost one of its oldest historic buildings, the first
Anderson County courthouse,
in the fire on Monday, January
2. The city was planned
around a public square after
the first settlers arrived in
1857. In July 1868, a contract
was signed by commissioners
to erect the building for a cost
of $6,500. The two story, 40 by

60 feet building with a brick
front and stone sides was used
until the completion of the
present courthouse in 1902. It
was reported in 1869 that the
annual revenue of the county
was twelve hundred dollars.

Congress, it is said, will be
asked to prepare legislation
for the doubling of the size of
the present land forces of the
country, already approaching
two million men. The legislation to be asked will permit
the government to go ahead
with the organizing of a firstline army of four million men
and a reserve, bringing the
total to five million. President
Wilson will not suggest lifting
the age limit from thirty years
to thirty-five or forty years.
This is advocated by some of
the members of the military
affairs committees of both the
house and senate.
