THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Don Millington
saw the flames from the intersection at Fourth and Oak a
little after 11 p.m. Wednesday,
June 25.
Something was on fire on
the east side of the 200 block
of Fourth Avenue. At first,
he thought it was the building he recently purchased for
his automotive shop, where he
had been headed when he saw
the flames. As he got closer,
Millington realized it was a
house. Whats more, he realized he knew the residents, and
BY VICKIE MOSS
knew they likely were asleep at
that time of night.
The front of the house at
218 E. Fourth Ave. was on fire,
so Millington called dispatch to
report the fire, drove through
the alley to the house and tried
the back door. It was locked. He
kicked the door several times,
making lots of noise to wake

BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A 47-year-old
Garnet man could spend the
next 25 years to life in prison
for having sex with a 13-yearold girl in 2013.
James Franklin Atkisson,
47, of Garnett, recently entered
a plea and was found guilty of
one count of rape, according
to court records and a press
release from Anderson County
Attorney Brandon Jones.

District Court.
Atkisson remains in the
Anderson County Jail pending

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
KANSAS CITY, KAN. – A 24year-old Greeley mother will
spend the next 13 and a half
years of her life in federal
prison for her role with a
group of drug traffickers
who killed an Ottawa man
and stuffed his body in a
refrigerator in late 2010.
Tracy Rockers pleaded
guilty about a year ago to
selling methamphetamine
as part of a drug trafficking ring and was sentenced
June 23 to 162 months in federal prison with five years
of post-release supervision.
Thirteen other people connected with the drug ring
also have been convicted,
with sentences ranging
from 52 months to 30 years
in prison. Her seven yearold daughter has been in the
custody of Rockers mother
and father since August
2011.
The story painted by court
records tells of a powerful,
intimidating group of drug
traffickers who severely
beat and tortured retailers
who didnt pay their drug
debts. After the death of one
of those customers, Gregory
Price of Ottawa, they tried to
cover up his killing by stuffing his body in a refrigerator
and dumping it at a rural
location near DeSoto. After
investigators began closing
in on the traffickers, they
learned about the death and
recovered Prices body more
than a year after it was abandoned.
Lost Girl
Rockers graduated in
2008 from Anderson County
High School and became a
Licensed Practical Nurse,
working at the Anderson
County Hospital from 20062010. In early 2011 Rockers
became involved in a relationship with Michael Quick,
one of the other defendants,
who lived in Eudora and
worked for a local farmer.
She apparently became part
of the drug ring sometime
after October 2010, according to court records, about
the time she left the job at
Anderson County Hospital.
Hearing records show
Rockers worked only temporary and odd jobs after that.
A review of Rockers
Facebook page in early
2011 and the posts from her
friends hint at an individual leaving former friends
behind. Numerous posters

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – A former Garnett
man and his family will return
to the community this weekend
to raise money in their quest to
start a Christian school in the
Philippines.
Ben Coltrane and his wife,
Sara, will visit the First Baptist
Church in Garnett at 10:30
a.m. Sunday, July 6, to talk
about their mission project.
They plan to move with their
three children to the City of
Puerta Galera on the Island of
Mindoro, a small town near the
northern coast. Over the course
of two to three years, they will
help establish a school for children in the Aninuan Christian
Church.

away, and many parents only
earn $2 a day when working, so
travel is difficult, Ben Coltrane
said.
Local elementary schools
often have about 60 students in
each class, and schools have a
short schedule so students can
attend in shifts. Many students
drop out before high school,
Coltrane said.
The Coltranes are wellsuited to the project. Ben has
taught math at the middle and
high school level and has been
an elementary school principal.
He currently teaches power
plant technology at Flint Hills
Technical College. Sara has
taught music in elementary

Annual LibertyFest fireworks display planned for July 3 at Lake Garnett
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Fireworks will light up
the skies around Garnett on July 3,
and organizers are hoping the event
will encourage people to open wallets
and checkbooks to keep the tradition
going.
The annual LibertyFest fireworks
display will go on this year as it has
in the past. But organizers say it takes
community donations to keep the
event going, year after year.
The fireworks display is supported
entirely by donations; no tax dollars
are used to fund the event. But every
year, organizers have pleaded for
donations to help pay for the display.
The Garnett Area Chamber of
Commerce sponsors the event, and
previous estimates show the annual
fireworks display costs about $2,000,
more or less. The event typically
brings most of its donations at the
gate. Volunteers stationed at Lake
Garnett ask patrons to make voluntary donations when they arrive.
Gates open at 6:30 p.m. and the
Community Band will perform at 8
p.m. Fireworks begin at dusk. No fireworks at allowed at the park.
For more information or to donate
to the event, call the Chamber at (785)
448-6767.

SENTENCE…
FROM PAGE 1A
Atkisson admitted having sex with a 13-year-old girl
around October 31, 2013.
Under the sentencing guidelines known as Jessicas Law,
Atkisson could face a sentence
of a minimum 25 years in pris-
on, without parole, up to life
in prison. Jessicas Law was
established in Kansas in 2006
and named after a Florida girl
who was sexually battered and
murdered in 2005. In Kansas, it
applies to sex crimes where the
perpetrator is older than 18 and
the victim is younger than 14.
FROM PAGE 1A
asked where was the former
high school softball pitcher and
popular, why she didnt respond
to messages or texts. There was
seldom a reply and no information volunteered. In November
2010 one poster echoed others thoughts: Tracy- I miss
you. Hope everything is going
okay.
As she slipped further into a
darker life, she took time out to
be a bridesmaid in her sisters
wedding.
Family members contacted
for this story said they did not
want to comment citing the
advice of an attorney, but one of
Rockers sisters said she hoped
the story would convey the fact
that drugs are not prejudiced
to whose lives they destroy.
Deadly Path
Rockers apparently met
Mike Quick sometime in late
2010 through a Garnett man,
Jerry MacAfee, according to
court records. Investigators
interviewed Rockers several
times, and according to records
based on those interviews she
said MacAfee purchased meth
from Quick or Quicks roommate, Mike Redifer. Rockers
soon began dealing with Quick
and Redifer without MacAfee
and started selling meth. The
men apparently were impressed
by how quickly Rockers was
able to sell the drugs, and soon
she was selling about an ounce
of meth every couple days.
Trial records show that by
December 2010 Rockers was living in Eudora with Quick and
another drug dealer, Steven
Hohn. On approximately Dec.
17, 2010, Redifer brought Price
to the home and Rockers convinced him to come inside to
talk about an $800 debt he owed
to Quick. Price apparently had
purchased meth from each of
the occupants and another
man who was present, Kerry
Randall. Rockers, Redifer,
Quick and Randall threatened
and yelled at Price, and all
except Rockers, according to
court records, had firearms.
After Price indicated he was
not going to pay the debt, the
group decided to take him to
the farm, a rural location out-
side DeSoto, to either continue
to threaten or kill him. Hohn
was called to the residence,
and after he arrived, Redifer
and Randall tried to pull Price
through the front door but he
resisted. The men threw him
into the door, and he collapsed
and began making gurgling
noises.
Records show Hohn and
Quick went out to put a camper
shell on a truck while the others stayed inside the residence.
Rockers checked periodically
to see if Price was still breathing, but at some point while
lying on the floor, he died. The
five decided against calling
the police and instead stuffed
Prices body inside the refrigerator and dumped it at the
farm. The body wasnt recovered until April 19, 2012, after a
tip to police officers who were
already investigating the ring.
Court records detail multiple aspects of the brutality by
which the ring operated. One
man reported Hohn would
distribute the meth through
various avenues, including
hiding it in towel displays at
Wal-Mart. The man, who sold
about 7 grams of meth every
other day, said he was given a
24-hour window to pay for the
drugs. If the money wasnt paid
quickly enough, Hohn sent the
reapers after the person who
owed the money. The man said
he once failed to pay Hohn for
three days, and was beaten and
tortured including having his
hands beaten and burned with
a shovel heated in a fireplace
and his head split open.
In January 2011, not long after
Prices death, Rockers cut out
the middle man and began
dealing drugs directly through
Quick. She regularly accompanied Quick to buy drugs from
his source, two Mexican brothers in the KC Metro area. When
that source dried up, they found
a new source from a Hispanic
woman also in the region.
Law enforcement began
investigating the drug ring
after a tip to the Gardner Police
Department about Hohn and
his associates. A KBI agent
developed a confidential informant in Garnett who said she
could purchase drugs from
Rockers. The informant and an
boat races
2×4.5
undercover agent purchased
meth from Rockers in August
2011, and attempted to buy
meth again several days later
but were unsuccessful.
Rockers was arrested Sept.
16, 2011, after returning from a
meeting with her source. While
on house arrest in connection
with that incident she then sold
meth two more times in October
2011 to an undercover agent.
By November 2011, Rockers
quit dealing meth and checked
into an inpatient rehab clinic.
But by late December 2011 or
early January 2012, she once
again began dealing and continued to do so at least though
January 2012. An indictment
against several members of
the drug ring was filed Jan. 25,
2012, and Rockers was arrested
two days later. She was released
on $50,000 bond Jan. 31, 2012.
Rockers documented drug
transactions and law enforcement recovered notebooks that
contained detailed information about money owed, money
paid and quantities of drugs
received and distributed.
Penalties
In April 2013, Rockers
reached a plea deal with federal
prosecutors, agreeing to cooperate in exchange for a lighter
sentence. She pleaded guilty to
one count of conspiracy to distribute meth.
Co-defendants include:
Michael C. Redifer, 37, who
was sentenced to 30 years.

EDITORIAL
A little flag; a little revolution
The story of a Florida Vietnam vet
whose homeowners association may foreclose on his home because he displayed
an American flag in a flower pot on his
front porch includes two very important
lessons:
1) Some Americans really love their
flag.
2) Anyone who lives under the jackboot of a homeowners association probably should have known better.
The 73 year-old vet, Larry Murphree
of Jacksonville, said if the homeowners
association wants to foreclose bring it
on. Hes been getting calls of support
from all over the country telling him he
should tell the homeowners association
to take a long walk off a short pier, and
he has no plans to back down.
The association started hitting him
with $100 a day fines last year for violating the association agreement that says
members can only display flags on a
flag pole that meets certain construction
mandates. Now the tab adds up to better
than $8,000, and Murphree says if they
want to foreclose on him to collect, thats
exactly what theyre going to have to do.
Its a small flag but it stands for a
big thank you and it shows the love and
respect I have for my country, Murphree
said.
Homeowner associations are pretty
much the rule out in suburbia these days.
Nobody wants to plop down a $350,000
home next to the dude whos had the
transmission from his 69 Dodge spread
out on his lawn since last spring and
the whole yard protected by a chickenwire fence and two Rottweilers. Those
associations really do protect peoples
investments and keep the blight out of
the neighborhood, and everybody knows
going in to the deal that the rules apply.
The problem, as is recounted time and
time again in these homeowners board
horror stories, is that the only folks
they can usually get to serve the thankless, lightning rod positions on those
neighborhood association boards are the
obsessive compulsive, monomaniacal
great-grandchildren of the Third Reich.
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
All the tools are in the right place in their
garage, and they didnt go to Woodstock.
Theyre not the type who appreciate
free spirits or compromise, and they get
more than just a little joy out of enforcing rules and regs. Usually they bulldoze
right over any opposition, but occasionally they run into a real freedom-loving
Patriot.
Anybody else might be willing to
amend the flag display provisions in those
rules to accommodate a less expensive
presentation in the name of patriotism,
but not these guys. The logic and moral
of the situation pale in comparison to the
need to crush the resistance.
This is the kind of American story,
however, that screams for the support
of like-minded rabble rousers across
the country and the world. If Murphree
hasnt yet thought of setting up a crowd
funding website so guys like me all over
the country can send a little cash to his
cause in tying up the foreclosure in court
and bankrupting his neighborhood association with its own legal bills, I hope he
figures it out soon.
If not, and if the Neighborhood Nazis
are intent on foreclosing on his house
over a tiny display of Old Glory stuck in
a flower pot, he ought to consider bringing his aunt Eunice and her 127 cats in
to live with him while he still has possession.
I mean, logic has completely flown the
coop in the dispute, he might as well have
a little fun.

Garnett needs a lot of things to
improve itself but this new theater
theyre talking about isnt one of
them. You know, were going to be
left here holding the bag as taxpayers like we did on the furniture factory and the new jail that was going
to pay for itself in no time at all.
Its so funny how our modern
liberal society over reacts to all
the stupid things and yet lets the
important things go. A bunch of
high school kids up in Kansas City
steal a goat from the farmstead at
Overland Park and turn it loose in a
McDonalds, and my Lord weve got
all kinds of charges pending against
them and animal cruelty and child
psychologists and this and that. In
Hail to the Redskins! While we still can
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Offices
contribution to the Washington Redskins
debate is pettifogging absurdity in the service
of rank politically correct bullying.
A panel of the offices Trademark Trial
and Appeal Board ruled in favor of plaintiffs
claiming that the Redskins name may disparage persons or bring them into contempt,
or disrepute, and therefore stripped the
team of six trademarks. In theory, the ruling
will hurt the teams bottom line by making it
impossible for it to stop others from selling its
merchandise.
Exercising his constitutional power as
arbiter of tastefulness in sports, Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid rallied almost
all of his Democratic colleagues a few months
ago to implore the NFL to change the offending name, and hailed the patent ruling as the
beginning of the end of the profound historical injustice perpetrated by the football franchise that dare not speak its name.
The patent board ruled this way once
before. In response to a complaint in the
1990s, the board made its decision, as it noted
this time around, after seven years of litigation, involving multiple discovery and pretrial motions. Then, the ruling was reversed
in court — after about another 10 years.
Certainly, opinions differ about the appropriateness of Redskins as a nickname.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
But some perspective: There is no time in
American history when Native Americans
have been held in higher regard. Their nobility is celebrated in our popular culture, and
their unjust treatment recounted in our
schools. The existence of a professional football franchise with the same name that it has
had for 80 years — no matter how anachronistic — has self-evidently not caused Native
Americans to be held in contempt and disrepute.
The Washington Post called the patent
decision a victory for tolerance. A bureaucratic body seeking to harm a sports team
because some people dont like its nickname
is a strange exercise in tolerance. The paper
went on to note that the tide is running
against the Redskins since so many people
have spoken out against them, including the
president of the United States and half of the
United States Senate, which controls the tax
breaks enjoyed by the NFL. Get it? It would
be too bad if something happened to your
nice football league. How tolerant.
In a section establishing the standing of
the anti-Redskins petitioners, the patent
panel made it clear they have no direct interest except that they are offended. Fine. Dont
be Redskins fans. Root for the Cowboys or
the Giants, the teams NFC East rivals. Never
go to FedExField. Dont buy Redskins paraphernalia. If you must support a Washington
sports team, make it one with a nickname so
thoroughly anodyne that even the Trademark
Trial and Appeal Board approves — the Major
League Soccer team, D.C. United.
But in the 21st century, this isnt the
American way. If something offends you, it
must be crusaded against and crushed underfoot, using whatever instrument of power is
available. That the franchise is holding firm
against this assault is reason to say a hearty
Hail to the Redskins! — while we still can.

Review.
Time to pick your Bachelor… er, candidate
If there was a radio version of the
Bachelor or Bachelorette TV show in
which contestants compete for your favor,
it would probably be a lot like the next few
months when candidates for the Kansas
House of Representatives ask for your vote.
The candidates are on their best behavior,
and try to be as appealing and friendly as
possible to convince you that they are the
ones you want to send to Topeka to manage
your governmentand essentially your life
in Kansas.
Theres good reason for you to take a hard
look at the qualities you want in your representatives. You dont have to marry them, of
course, but you will be wed to them and their
ideas for government for at least two years.
So, even though you probably have a real
life and responsibilities, its time to start
thinking about those key questions youll
want to ask those candidates.
Party affiliation? Thats probably the
beginner for the primary election season but
even at the primary level, if the candidate is
on your doorstep or chatting after the 4th of
July parade or wandering the grounds at the
county fair, you ought to find out all you can
that matters to you about your partys candidatesand even the other partys candidate
for your decision in November.
Have kids or grandkids or neighborhood
kids in school? You probably ought to consider where the candidate is on financing public
education. Do you think that the local youngsters are getting a good educationespecially
those with special needs? Youll want to hear
the candidates opinion of your local schools
STATE COMMENTARY
MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
and whether they have enough money to
handle the kids, or not enough, or know. Or,
if you feel the schools dont make best use of
their finances, does your potential representative have a better idea?
Yes, there will be candidates who know
less about public education and how it is
financed and managed than you do. I dont
really know might be the answer you get,
but public education takes more than half of
the states budget and its probably reasonable to find out the candidates inclination for
financing schools.
If abortion or guns are your hot buttons,
of course, get the candidate to be specific.
An endorsement by an association is a start,
but if those are big issues for you, press a bit
to find out whether the candidate leans the
right way for you.
Taxes? Nobody except those 190,000
Kansans who dont pay state income taxes
at all because of previous legislative action
thinks taxes are too low. But, you gotta also
figure that it takes some money to run the
state and provide the services you want. So,
be cautious about a candidate who just talks
about cutting taxes without some sort of link
to providing services you specifically want.
There are, of course, local issues that will
be important to have a champion for during
the Legislaturemaybe it is a new off-ramp
from the highway or a plan to make sure that
your town doesnt run out of water. If your
neighbors are talking about a specific issue,
see where the candidate goes with it.
But the real key may be asking that candidate why he/she decided to spend the summer running for election to a job that pays
less than $20,000 to winter in Topeka. Is
there something here that makes sense to you
locally or some grand design that sounds like
it was pulled off an Internet website?
This election probably ought to be a workout for voters just as it is for candidates. Its
OK to be picky, and its OK to present your
issue to the candidate and see whether he/
she will represent that issue for you under
the dome.
And, the nice thing about this Bachelor/
Bachelorette derby is that it could be on
radio…because it doesnt matter how cute
they are. Your representative is your voice in
the Legislature.

my day they called it a prank, made
the kids return the goat and clean up
goat (deleted) on the farm for a day,
then go clean up the goat (deleted) at
McDonalds, and sent them home to
their folks to finish the job. Give me
a break.
Thank you very much to the person
that cleaned off the rocks and the
mud on the rail trail at First Street. It
makes is so much safer riding a bike.
The broken red glass near Second
Street isnt so nice.
Obama lets people out of Guantanamo,
and he ends up running the show
with ISIS in Iraq. Meanwhile, our
officials in Washington, D.C., are concerned about changing the name of
the Washington Redskins.
Do you ever stop and realize that in
25 years all the babies born in the
United States there may not be one
caucasian? With all the influx of illegals that our president is allowing
into this country, and I do believe this
is part of his master plan to turn the
U.S. into a third world country. Hes
here to punish us for some reason
and its because of freedom, and we
keep voting for this type of people.
Parents, please before your child is
allowed to ride their bicycle on the
sidewalk, teach them the proper way
they are supposed to yield to pedestrians not to ride up right behind them
and scare them to death. Thank you.

Book about Elizabeth Smart to be
discussed at Garnett Public Library
The Garnett Public Library
will hold a book discussion
on Wednesday, July 23rd at 7
p.m. This months book is My
Story by Elizabeth Smart with
Chris Stewart. Leading our
discussion will be Paulabeth
Henderson.
On June 5, 2002, fourteenyear-old Elizabeth Smart,
the daughter of a close-knit
Mormon family, was taken from
her home in the middle of the
night by religious fanatic Brian
David Mitchell and his wife,
Wanda Barzee. She was kept
chained, dressed in disguise,
repeatedly raped, and told she
and her family would be killed
if she tried to escape. After her
rescue on March 12, 2003, she
rejoined her family and worked
to pick up the pieces of her life.
For the first time, ten years
after her abduction from
her Salt Lake City bedroom,
Elizabeth Smart reveals how
she survived and the secret to
forging a new life in the wake
of a brutal crime.
The books are available for
checkout at the library. The
discussions are held the fourth
Wednesday of each month at 7
p.m. in the Archer Room at the
library. Notification is posted
in case of cancellation.

the occupants.
Inside the house, Rusty
Harvey awoke to find his
bedroom filled with smoke,
Millington said. Harvey felt
his way to the walls and realized they and the door were
hot, so he made his way to the
bedroom window. He broke the
window, stuck out his head and
breathed fresh air.
Millington heard glass break
on the east side of the house
and found Harvey, his head out
the window, coughing.
Wheres Emma? Millington
asked,
concerned
about
Harveys 5-year-old daughter.
Millingtons girlfriend is the
girls grandmother, and he
knew the girl was supposed to
be with Harvey.
Although the girls bedroom
was at the front of the house,
she was sleeping in her fathers
bedroom that night. Harvey
carried the girl to the window
and handed her to Millington.
Meanwhile, another man
who was staying in the basement of the house, Preston
Morgan, heard the noise
Millington made while beating
on the back door. The smoke
wasnt as bad in the basement,
and Morgan was able to leave
through the back door.
Millington said someone else
arrived at the scene as Harvey
was crawling through the
window, but he left and took
Emma to her grandmothers
house. When he returned, fire
crews were busy putting out
the flames.
Garnett Fire Chief Pat Tate
credited Millington with saving
the lives of three people, but
Millington said anyone would
have done the same thing.
Its nothing particularly
extraordinary, he said. I just
saw the fire and woke them up.
Thats what anybody would do
if they saw somebodys house
on fire. Im just glad theyre
OK.
Tate said no working smoke
detectors were found in the
house.
Harvey was taken to
Anderson County Hospital for
treatment of cuts to his hands
from the broken window. The

other occupants were not
injured.
The house was heavily damaged by the fire. Owner Denny
Hachenberg said he is waiting to hear from insurance
adjusters about the extent of
the damage, and it was not yet
known what caused the fire. It
appeared the fire began on the
front porch.
Hachenberg said he has
owned the home for about 15
years, and it was one of the first
places he lived when he moved
to Garnett as administrator
of Anderson County Hospital.
The home was built in the 1920s
and has been a rental property

Im just thankful the tenants got out with minimal problems, Hachenberg said.
Hachenberg said he hopes
the incident will serve as a
reminder to people to practice
a fire evacuation plan.
Fires are so unpredictable
and they go so fast, he said. It
can happen to anybody.

Ethanol Boat Races ride into Garnett July 12-13
WASHINGTON, D.C. The
popular Garnett Ethanol
Hydroplane Shootout is returning to Garnett, Kan., July 12
13. This National Boat Racing
Association (NBRA) competition pits drivers of hydroplanes
and roundabouts against each
other in a fast-paced race to
the finish. The upcoming race
is sponsored by the Renewable
Fuels Association (RFA), East
Kansas Agri-Energy, and the
Kansas Corn Commission.
Admission is free and earplugs
or noise reducing devices are
suggested.
The NBRA, host of the event,
has a long history of using E10.
They broke speed records on
the high-octane ethanol blend.
According to Vernon Barfield,
tech chairman and vice president of the NBRA, he has had
no issues using E10 in their
more than 20 years of racing.
He has also won more than 35
national championships. The
NBRA represents more than
250 drivers in 30 states.
Make your referral program
simple, motivating
The gist of referral programs isnt nearly as complicated as it sounds. It just goes back
to the old adage that word of
mouth is the best advertising.
And it really is. One business
study showed that a customer
whos referred to your business from another customer
has a 16-18 percent higher lifetime value theyre more loyal
and theyre less expensive to
acquire on average than other
customers.
The music industry has been
the best example of an unsung
referral program for eons.
Hey, listen to these guys,
someone tells you as they cue
up a song they like. That happened to me when I was in the
7th grade, and Ive been buying
KISS records and merchandise
ever since. KISS acquired me as
a fan and a customer without
ever running an ad, offering me
a coupon or spending a nickel
on marketing directed at me.
My cousin did all the work for
them.
Though that kind of referral
is cheap, the problem is it can
be the hardest to get, because
unlike placing an ad in your
local newspaper or radio or TV
station or free Internet site, you
have little or no control. Your
customer is in charge. How do
you know your present customer will refer you?
You dont. But you can organize things youre already doing
to try to ensure it.
For starters, you have to be a
business that a customer wants
to refer someone to. That goes
back to value the idea that
customers get their moneys
worth or more by doing business with you through great
products and great service.
Next you need a premium
not just for the present customer you hope will do the
work for you, but also for the
unknown new referral as a
motivator to come experience
you. I recommend making both
the premiums the same a free
something (everybody likes getting something for free) or a
percentage off a followup purchase.
Next you need a simple vehicle to communicate the referral

offer. There are loads of special
software programs you can buy
on the Internet to track referrals and award custom points
and all that jazz, and thats
great if you have the money
and staff to conduct it, but I
like a simple referral card or
tear-off coupon at the counter
you can hand to a customer as
youre thanking them for their
business. Dont ask them if
they want to participate just
put their name on it and hand
it to them. You can find free
formats for these on the web
and print them from your own
computer, or have a local print
shop make them up for you.
Make sure you have a line
with the present customers
name, and a blank line beneath
it for the referred customers
name. Ideally, your present
customer hands off the card
to someone who then redeems
it with you on your promise
of a free pair of gloves with
purchase, a free sandwich with
a $10 order, etc. When redeeming the card, write the referred
customers name on the second
line.
Then the best idea is to find
a place on the wall or near the
cash register to tape or thumbtack up the redeemed referral
cards that way referrers can
see if their buddy redeemed
the card, and you promote the
program to in-store traffic.
Referral programs dont
have to be complicated, they
just have to be motivating.
The Garnett Ethanol
Hydroplane Shootout is a popular, family-friendly event where
people of all ages can enjoy
high-stakes action while learning about the environmental benefits and high-octane
power boost of ethanol-blended
fuel, said Robert White, RFAs
director of market development. There is a lot of misinformation out there about
ethanols impact on boats, but
E10 is safe and approved for
use in all marine engines. The
Lake Garnett event gives us
an opportunity to educate boat
owners and non-boat owners,
and set the record straight.
Jeff Oestmann, president
and CEO of East Kansas AgriEnergy, touted the race as a
unique opportunity to highlight the benefits of ethanol.
He stated, It is exciting to see
a national organization select
Garnett for this event. It allows
us to further promote the
benefits of ethanol, not only
in marine engines, but in all
engines. We are proud to be a
sponsor, and look forward to
the races.
The Garnett Ethanol
Hydroplane Shootout is a
great opportunity to spotlight
Kansas agriculture and ethanol, said Greg Krissek, head of
the Kansas Corn Commission.
We are excited to sponsor this
years race and hope everyone
will join us to cheer on the competitors.

Burns to lead
Anderson County
Hospital Foundation
The Anderson County
Hospital Foundation has
named Mike Burns president of the Anderson County
Hospital Foundation board.
Burns replaces Dr. Jerry
Padfield who will now serve
as vice president.
The Anderson County
Hospital Foundations mission is to support capital purchases for Anderson County
Hospital, a critical access hospital. This mission continues
to be the focus for Burns as he
looks to the future and hopes
to establish a robust endowment for the foundation.
A n
endowment
is key to the
sustainability of the
foundation
to ensure
monies are
available to
Burns
fund growth
and capital
improvements as needed,
said Burns. My goal is to
have everyone see the value
of establishing an endowment and how having one in
place can allow for additional
support to our patients and
ultimately, our community.
The Anderson County
Hospital Foundation was
established in 2000 and in
the last 14 years has raised
monies through various fundraisers including the annual
Heeling for Health walk held
each April and the annual
foundation golf benefit held
in September. Funds raised
from these events and other
campaigns have been used
to support capital improvements for the hospital such
as the addition of state-of-theart digital mammography and
new radiology equipment.

wasnt my day as besides the
swollen wrist, Kay helped me

1984: Police, sheriff clash over policy
June 29, 2004
Trinity Lutheran Church in
Garnett celebrated its 20th anniversary this past weekend, and
it was a milestone achieved by
faith, perseverance and providence. By faith, Lutherans of
Garnett tried once again in 1966
to form a congregation after
earlier attempts in the 1920s
and 1950s were unsuccessful.
By perseverance, many of them
maintained memberships at
Faith Lutheran in Ottawa yet
met for Bible Study in individual homes for about 10 years
before they began worshipping
at the Presbyterian Church in
1976. The Lutherans held worship at the Presbyterian Church
from 1976 to 1982, leaving the
church building on Sunday
morning about the same time
the Presbyterians were arriving.
A recent tour of farmers
markets in several Kansas communities gave some clues as to
how a market could succeed
in Garnett, and how it might
assist in bringing retail customers to downtown Garnett in
particular. The markets visited
were in Burlington, Ottawa,
Lawrence and Topeka. There
are also markets in Iola and
Paola, as well as some smaller
towns, and a larger market in

Librarian Andrea Sobba told
the Garnett City Commission
recently budget shortages at
the library will force a reduction in services next year
unless the citys property valuation increases or the commission agrees to additional tax
funding. Sobbas remarks were
the first of any city department
so far publicly directed toward
the citys 1995 budget, on which
the city staff have begun preliminary work for finalization
next month. At issue now is
whether the citys property
valuation will rise next year,
allowing more revenue to be
raised with current tax levies,
or if it will decline like last year
All God needs is a
spiritual response
In his book In Pursuit of
God, A. W. Tozer asks the
question, Why do some persons find God in a way others
do not? As I think about that,
what does it mean to find God?
In order to find something
you must search for it. Even
more than that you must have
a desire for it. Each of us have
inward longings and desires.
Everyone is searching for
something. All of us search for
security. We want our families
to be safe and secure. We want
job security. I know of no one
who has found either. All of
us want good health and a long
life. This is more difficult to
find than security. Because of
our failure to find either security or lasting health we often
pursue some type of pleasure
which will ease the frustration
we feel from our inability to
find security and good health.
So where is the failure or the
disconnect? Tozer states, The
difference lies not with God but
with us. Now we need to get
back to the question what does
it mean to find God? Tozer
believed the most important
quality anyone can have is a
spiritual awareness. If we are
not aware of God and his desire
to reveal himself to us we are
disconnected from the great-
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
est source of light and power
we could ever possess. Now
that being said many people
are aware of God but never
offer any meaningful spiritual
response. Simply put most of
us pursue everything ahead of
God. In order to take the high
road of spiritual living and
offer a meaningful spiritual
response to God would require
us to put God ahead of everything else. Now that puts us
on the horns of a dilemma. Do
we pursue God or do we pursue
our desires? In Psalm 22:18,
David said, When thou said-st,
seek ye my face; my heart said
unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will
I seek.
If you want to find God the
next time you feel that inward
longing do something about it.
Make a spiritual response, say
Thy face, LORD, will I seek.

There is a need for city police
officers to respond to accidents
within the vicinity of the city
when other law enforcement
personnel are not available,
Anderson County Sheriff Tom
Hermreck told the Garnett City
Commission. Hermreck said
that a problem had developed
during the serious accident last
Friday night on U.S.169 and Park
Road, as the sheriffs deputy
was east of Garnett six to eight
miles and the nearest trooper
was south of Colony. One police
unit responded but another said
he would not do so until he had
clearance from Police Chief
Lawrence Kellerman. The current police handbook policy
instructed policemen to secure
permission from a supervisor
prior to covering accidents or
other incidents outside the city
limits. This is so the city will
not be unprotected.

Fire department gets grant
Garnett Fire Department
has been awarded a FY2013
Assistance to Firefighters Grant
(AFG) in the amount of $10,920
to replace several hundred feet
of fire hose and purchase 2 portable ground monitors.
The primary goal of the
Assistance to Firefighters Grant
(AFG) is to meet the firefighting
and emergency response needs
of fire departments and nonaffiliated emergency medical service organizations. Since 2001,
AFG has helped firefighters
and other first responders to
obtain critically needed equip-
ment, protective gear, emergency vehicles, training and
other resources needed to protect the public and emergency
personnel from fire and related
hazards.
These grants are not the
easiest to come by. Captain
J.D.Mersman has really worked
hard to obtain this equipment
which will greatly benefit the
department. I personally want
to thank him and others who
have worked to secure the
grant, Garnett Fire Chief Pat
Tate said.

Every reliable newspaper
desires to print the news correctly, and nobody regrets an
error appearing in the paper
more than does the editor; yet,
careful as he may be, errors
creep in occasionally. There are
people who appear to delight in
watching for these errors and
bawling out the editor in a
crowd with something like this:
Hey, dont you know where
Kalamazoo is? Didnt you know
its in Michigan? Haw! Haw!
Haw! Maybe the editor wrote
the name of the state right, and
the typo got it worng; or maybe
the editor wrote it wrong.
Anyhow, the name was wrong
when it appeared in the paper,
and the smart critic enjoyed
himself calling the editor
down. And of course the editor enjoyed it, too. Speaking of
these errors, the Yates Center
News says: We were criticized
last week for a mistake in the
personnel of a local item. Did
you ever make mistakes? Yes.
Then how would you like to
have them printed on a piece of
white paper every week so the
public could see them? Would
they be fewer than the average
editor makes?
