Opponents to appeal vote that retained Gender Queer
Decision on book
opponents say is porn
now goes to board
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Opponents to a
4-2 ruling that will leave the
book Gender Queer in the
Garnett Municipal Librarys
adult section but without age
restrictions plan to appeal the
determination after a special
committee meeting produced
the ruling in late June.
Amanda Walker, a com-
mittee designee for complainants Wes Keller and Franklin
Urquhart, said the appeal to
the city library board was in
the works and according to
library policy had to be filed
within three weeks of the committee hearing. Library policy allows the board to make
the final determination on an
appeal.
Librarian Andrea Sobba
said the issue is set for consideration by the board at its
August 8 meeting.
Keller and Urquhart filed
the complaint about Gender
Queer, which chronicles the
experiences of author Maia
Kobabe coming of age as a
non-binary (perception as
neither male nor female) individual, in May of this year,
charging that the books graphic representations of sex acts
amounted to pornography
involving children and asked
that it be removed from the
library. Gender Queer has been
under fire in communities
across the country in school
and public libraries for similar
charges that its cartoon panel
illustrations of graphic sex acts
and pedophilia violate
local standards if not
pornography laws.
Discussions
among panel members were at times
tense.
Panel
members included Walker, local
pastor
Art
Black, librarian Andrea
Sobba and library
adult services coordinator Tegan Modica, library
board member Karen Katzer
and library patron Bonnie
Dieter. The vote at the
culmination of
discussions
was Sobba,
Modica, Dieter
and Katzer voting to retain the
book, Black and
Walker in opposition.
W a l k e r
showed panel members illustrations from
the book depicting the
use of sexual accessories,
aroused male and female
genitalia, oral sex, sex acts
between adults and sexual
touching between adults and
children. Walker also quoted
the verbiage of Kansas pornography statute and said the book
violated those laws.
I dont think the library
should have porn in it, Walker
said.
Black commented that the
book was part of a woke
cultural effort to indoctrinate
young people into transgender
ideolgy which had become pervasive in western popular culSEE BOOK ON PAGE 9
City warned of possible
summer electricity shortage
Power authorities say we
may have to cut consumption,
while Evergy scuttles coal
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REIVEW
GARNETT City officials are keeping an eye on electrical use this summer and the threat that a shortage of
electricity during peak periods may
force scalebacks or voluntary use
reductions this summer.
Garnett City Manager Travis
Wilson told city commissioners in his
weekly memo the city was contacted
by the Southwest Power Pool with
the issuance of a Resource Alert/
Advisory due to recent hot weather
and increased electrical use for air
conditioning. The SPP oversees the
bulk electric grid and the wholesale
power market in the century United
States, over which Garnett and other
cities purchase electricity from providers.
The SPP alert said hot weather,

Kansas study shows more
Covid deaths in counties
that had mask mandates
German physician says
inhaling droplets from mask
probably made Covid worse
BY DAVID HICKS
THE SENTINEL
KASSEL, Germany Kansas counties with Covid mask mandates had
significantly higher case fatality
rates than counties with no mandates, according to a German study
of Kansas particular mix of jurisdictions with and without mandates
during the height of the pandemic.
The conclusion of the study was
published in the online medical journal Medicine on the effect mandatory
mask requirements had on case fatality rates in Kansas between August
1st and October 15th, 2020.
The author of the study, German
doctor Zacharias Foegen, explains
why the Sunflower State was a
unique case study:
The state of Kansas, USA, has
over 2.8 million residents. During the
summer of 2020, Kansas State issued
a mask mandate, but it allowed its
105 counties to either opt out or issue
their own mask mandate which
was a rarity in the USA and one reason for the choice of this state, the
other being that the comparison of
infection rates among these counties
has already been done by Van Dyke
et al., showing a benefit of mask mandates.
Kansas legislators interceded to
block a full scale statewide mask
mandate as ordered by Governor
Laura Kelly, and allowed individual

The cause of the July 4 weekend blaze that destroyed the
Cherry Mound Community Church north of Westphalia is
still unknown. The structure was completely destroyed and
was one of the oldest original churches in the local area,

originally dedicated in 1880 as a United Brethren Church. It
was used most recently as a meeting place for the Cherry

FOOSHEE
United Methodist Church in
Garnett. Not only did he hold
many offices, but also worked
on many district and conference levels. He helped organize and held a chair with
the Kansas East Conference
Hunger Task Force from 1976
until 1984, serving on projects
in many countries, including Mexico, Haiti, Russia,
and Guatemala. This too was
another important influence in
his life.
Dale served for seven years
as Council Director for the
Kansas East Conference of the
United Methodist Church overseeing all programming agencies of the conference such as
missions, camping, youth, campus ministry, and social issues.
Prior to that he served as an
Associate Council Director and
Rural Life Advocate, a position
with special responsibilities
related to troubled farm families and communities during
the farm crisis. He was recognized as Rural Lay Person of
the Year by the Kansas East
Conference UMC in 1985.
Dale was very active in
his retirement years. He was
very involved in the Topeka
Center for Peace and Justice.
He also served on the board of
the Shepherd Center. For eight
years he was involved with
the National United Methodist
Board of Missions in 120 countries. He volunteered with
Stephens Ministries, a peer
support organization and was
a weekly hospital visitor for
his church. He was currently
the Democratic Party precinct
chair and was instrumental
in getting the state minimum
wage increased.
Dales family and friends
meant everything to him. He
visited each grandchild, who
all lived out of state, on their
birthday. He never knew a
stranger and never went a day
without lunch plans with someone.
He is survived by four daughters, Janet Fouche-Schack
(James), Julie Fooshee (Pam
Dooley), Jill Babcock (Sherri),
and Kimberly Marbello (Rey);
five grandchildren, Grace Ann
Babcock, Shea Celeste Dooley,
Quentin Lewis Marbello, Ethan
Rey Marbello, and Faith Mae
Babcock.
He was preceded in death by
his wife, Shirley on December
28, 2003 and a granddaughter,
Maria Elisabeth Dooley in
November 4, 2006.
Services were held on
Saturday, July 2, 2022 at
Topeka First United Methodist
Church. Interment followed at
Garnett Cemetery.

OPINION
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 12, 2022
Kelly wants to rumble with your cash
Governor Laura Kelly is ready to go all
Sharks and Jets on any recession that may come
knocking on Sunflower State turf jonesing for
a rumble just like Riff and Bernardo in West
Side Story and backed up by tons of surplus
cash that came out of your pockets from Kansas
ever exorbitant tax rates.
Bring it on, she challenged recession fears
last week while appearing before an audience
of supporters. Because we now have enough
money to be able to ride it out, still funding
everything that were supposed to be funding,
Kelly said.
No doubt were all bolstered knowing the
grand architect of the Kansas pandemic shutdown, who shuddered small businesses and
churches, stopped the economy and would probably still have you in a mask and some phase
of reopening if not for Republicans in the
Legislature, is ready to put up her dukes with
your tax money if a recession gets lippy. How
nice that Kansas coffers are so flush with our
tax revenues, while folks hauling their kids
to traveling team ball games this summer are
shelling out nearly $5 a gallon for gas.
That Kelly would even mention the R word
at all is a stark admission for a Democrat in public office right now. The frighteningly befuddled
Joe Biden jumped a reporter just last month for
suggesting a recession was heading our way
like the finger snapping chorus line of The Jet
Song, saying he had recently talked to former
treasury secretary Larry Summers and theres
nothing inevitable about a recession.
Trouble is Summers was on an NBC news
show just the previous Sunday saying a recession was likely, due to spiking inflation, like
in previous historical instances. Nonetheless
Democrats dodge the mention of the word as
they whistle past the graveyard on the topic. But
hey, when youre a Jet youre a Jet all the way,
from your first cigarette to your last dyin day
If youre just a Kansan whos been trying to
put gas in your car or buy a steak or shingles for
your roof or anything else this summer, Kellys
comments are more than a little galling. If the
state is so flush with extra cash why not cut
taxes and put a little of that windfall cash back
in our pockets?
Of course this is coming from the Governor,
who, flanked by economic development boy
wonder David Toland earlier this spring took
credit for every tax-generating private business
investment made by real entreprenures in the
state over the past year. To hear Kelly and
Toland tell it, its almost as if the less-than-dynamic duo had both cashed in their own 401ks,
mowed that weedy lot out back and helped pour
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
the concrete for a new quiche and crab legs
stand themselves.
Meanwhile tax increases passed in 2015 and
2017 continue to drain the wallets of those earning a living here. And dont forget for those
who were due a tax refund from the state back
when Trump rewrote the federal tax codes as
part of an economic plan that actually worked
Kelly saw fit to keep the refund that should have
come back to you.
Since then, though unemployment percentages make the state look fabulous, 38,000 fewer
Kansans were working in May of this year compared to January 2020. In addition to job loss and
crippling inflation, Kansans are paying some of
the highest tax rates in the U.S.
our top marginal income tax rate of 5.7% is
higher than 28 states.
Kansas has the highest effective tax rate on
mature businesses.
the combined state and local sales tax rate is
the ninth-highest in the nation.
And of course Kansans pay some of the
highest effective property tax rates in the country. We all saw what happened to our property
valuations recently, and were all spooked about
what unchecked local tax levies will do when
applied to the assessments on those higher,
inflation-driven values as citys and counties
and school districts draft their 2023 budgets.
Instead of claiming credit for the success due
private business investors and talking smack
about how much extra cash the states drained
from the citizenry as 40 year record inflation
chews away at every Kansas household, Kelly
should have spent the post-Covid recovery coming up with a plan to cut personal and corporate
income taxes and leave that windfall with the
people who earned it. ###

Well, I feel sorry for the majority of the women
in Anderson County. According to the news
media, since they havent had an abortion, they
havent had good health care. Maybe we can
find some other way for them to get good health
care. I guess well see.
Local people working the register at local businesses, tell me thank you. Dont just drop the
receipt in my bag and clam up. Dont just say
have a nice day although thats better than
nothing. Say thank you, because it means you
appreciate me spending my money with you
or your boss who is providing you a job rather
than me going to any of your competitors where
I could have shopped. Make me feel appreciated,
because many times when I shop in this town, I
dont. Now Ill say it to you. Thank you.
Whoa, whats this I hear, some dude a couple
months ago wound up shooting a bunch of people with a bow and arrow. Now, if we get rid of
the guns, whats he gonna do?
Notice to all local farmers. Could it be possible
that you could round the corners of your corn
fields at the intersections so theres better visibility? Do we gain that much by makng a square
corner?
Its time somebody put something positive in
the Phone Forum rather than complain about
the politicians, the city commission and other
things. I became very ill last week and I was
transported to the Anderson County Hospital
where I received excellent care. From there I
was transferred to the Iola hospital where I had
to spend a week. Again I received excellent care.
For all you people who think these hospitals are
jokes, youre the one thats mistaken.
To the Anderson County Weed Department and
all the local farmers. Have you paid attention
and noticed along the roadsides and in our
fields? We are getting inundated with Johnson
Grass. We need to get serious about getting
it under control or we will have a county of
Johnson Grass in real short order. Lets get some
spray and get it under control. Thank you much.

Count em up: Oil companies making huge profits
Around the globe, people are feeling the
pain of inflation, currently at a 40-year high.
The main contributor is gas and diesel prices.
In todays global economy goods are moved
across America, as well the world. The price
rise in fuel has led to a spike in the cost of
everything we produce and buy.
Factors leading to this economic hardship
include recovering economies from COVID19 shutdown(s), because of pandemic restrictions. For nearly two years, air travel was significantly lower. Canadian CTV News reported in May of 2020, more than 17,000 airplanes
were parked indefinitely worldwide. Many
people were either working from home or not
working at all. Of course, the lack of commuter traffic lowered oil demand even further.
This reduction in fuel consumption caused
big oil companies to change their operational
philosophy. They decided to no longer prioritize repairing refineries, and in some cases
shut them down indefinitely. Now, lets take
a look at big oil pre-pandemic, in June 2019.
A Sunoco refinery outside of Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania caught fire. This was the oldest continually running refinery in the U.S.,
and it was subsequently shut down and the
property was sold. It erased 175,000 barrels
per day from the production equation. In
2021, Hurricane Ida also contributed to the
COMMENTARY
BRUCE SHULTZ, VICE-PRESIDENT NFO
closing of several refineries in the Gulf Coast
area. Phillips 66 decided to shut down its Belle
Chasse, Louisiana facility and did not replace
the lost production of 255,000 barrels per day.
In the past two years, there have been eight
other refineries shut down totaling about one
million barrels per day. Yet what we hear
from big oil companies is that they are producing as much as they can. They seem to
be engaging in what many of us believe was
happening all along, collusion. This time it is
not just the price, but cutting production that
keeps prices soaring at the pump.
Analysts report oil entities are making
record profits. Why would they want to
change the system? Those same companies
insist they lost billions during the pandemic,
and are simply trying to recoup their losses.
However, I own some oil stocks in my IRA.
During the pandemic, I still was paid quarterly dividends. If they were losing money,
where did all this cash come from that was
being paid to shareholders? Apparently from
the cash they had banked in accounts from
past profits.
In January 2021, the price of a barrel of oil
was about $52. Gas per gallon as a national
average was $2.39. Federal taxes accounted for
18.4 cents per gallon and the average of four
midwestern states accounts for 26.1 cents per
gallon of state tax.
When you subtract 44.5 cents per gallon
of taxes, $1.94 per gallon remains. On June
30, 2022, a barrel of crude oil was $106. AAA
reports an average June 28 gasoline pump
price of $4.86. Subtract the taxes and you end
up with $4.41 per gallon. Big oil companies
did not see all their inputs double, including
wages for refinery workers. I dont begrudge
anyone for making a profit, which every successful business must do. However, it seems
to me that profits should not be made at the
expense of society.

Easier to beat up on gas stations than change policy
For Joe Biden, the buck stops with small
independent business owners trying to make
ends meet.
Over the holiday weekend, the president
slammed gas stations for the purported sin
of not passing along declining oil prices to
motorists.
Biden took to Twitter to urge the companies running gas stations and setting prices at
the pump to heed his message: Bring down
the price you are charging at the pump to
reflect the cost youre paying for the product.
Yes, sir, whatever you say, Mr. President!
The United States Oil and Gas Association
mockingly recommended that the intern who
posted the tweet should sign up for Econ 101,
but its worse than that. Biden has hit the
gas stations before on the same grounds. Its
hard to know where the economic illiteracy
ends and the shameless demagoguery begins.
Regardless, its another indication that the
presidents approach to inflation is to cast
about for scapegoats and villains, no matter
how implausible.
So-called jawboning, or stern rhetoric
directed at industries to get them to bend to
the presidential will, is nothing new. The most
famous example is from John F. Kennedy,
who blasted U.S. Steel for raising prices in
1962. JFKs tack was questionable, but at least
he was targeting an enormously influential
industry that had breached an agreement to
hold the line on prices brokered by his administration.
Biden, by contrast, is going after the proverbial Liberty Gas Station and Uni-Mart
down on Route 134 started by an immigrant
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
couple hoping to send their children to college
for the first time. These small-time entrepreneurs have done nothing wrong, except
remain in business at a time when the presidents anti-oil-and-gas policy has backfired
spectacularly.
As the business newsletter The Hustle
explains, the majority of owners operate a single gas station, either as a branded location of
a big famous company or on their own. Given
that there are more than 100,000 gas stations
in the United States, many clustered at the
same busy intersections in direct competition
with one another, a proprietor hardly has
monopoly power to determine prices.
Indeed, when Biden says gas stations set
prices, hes technically correct in the sense
that they post the prices on their iconic signs
down to the tenth of a cent. They arent doing
it arbitrarily, though. They all know that if
they set a price not justified by broader market forces, customers will simply drive down
the street to a more reasonably priced station.
Selling gas usually isnt the most lucrative
part of the business, either. Gas stations make
a very small margin on fuel, with the cost of
crude and refining, along with transport and
taxes, accounting for almost all of the price
at the pump. Stations earn a much higher
margin on their sales of drinks and foodstuffs.
Biden would be on more solid ground urging
gas stations to cut consumers a break on the
price of soda and Doritos.
Biden maintains that the stations should
reduce gas prices since its a time of war
and global peril. This appeal might make
sense if Biden were browbeating gas stations
located in Ukraine or Russia. But the U.S. is
not at war, and business owners are under
no obligation to sell their product at cost or
below because Vladimir Putin is trying to
dismember Ukraine. Counterintuitively, gas
stations tend to be more profitable when prices are declining rather than rising, so they
are unlikely simply as a business matter to be
engaged in the pricing conspiracy that Biden
alleges.
Although President Biden considers them
worthy of a good kicking, gas stations arent
a growth proposition. The number of stations
has markedly declined in recent decades, and
the rise of electric cars is putting more pressure on the business model.
At least they are actually doing their job
in difficult circumstances. The same cant be
said of the president.

Panel member asks
for survey responses
re: Gender Queer
Letter To The Editor,
Hello my name is Amanda Walker. I am a
resident of Garnett, Ks. I was recently on a committee to discuss a book called Gender Queer.
In this meeting it was dicussed on whether to
keep/remove the book or possibly have an age
restriction (18 or above to check out). In this
meeting there were four votes to keep the book
in the library with no age restrictions and two
to not keep the book in the library or at least
have an age restriction (18 or above to check
out). I would like to hear from the community
as a whole, so I would ask that you email me at
mandymiller6@yahoo.com with responses for
these two questions:
1: Do you think Gender Queer should be in
the Garnett public library? Yes or No?
2: Would you prefer an age restriction for
Gender Queer to be checked out of the Garnett
public library(18 or above)? Yes or No?
These answers will be given to the library
and library board so they can see the communitys response as a whole. Thank you for taking
the time to respond to this survey.
The survey will be open from July 12th-July
14th. This is for informational purposes only.
Please include any comments that you feel are
necessary. Thank you again and have a great
day.

The Christy Company of
Freman, Ohio actually started out in 1880 as the Christy

the Christy single-edge safety razor being invented and
placed on the market.

If you said these are just
a couple of old plastic toys
wheels, youre absolutely
right. I would almost bet that
there is someone out there
that owned and played with
a Wyandotte Vintage -Antique
Tin Toy. From 1921-1957, the
ALL METAL PRODUCTS
COMPANY produced and sold
millions of Wyandotte TIN
toys. cars, trucks, airplanes,
racers, military jeeps, aircraft,
ships, etc., even the tin hen
that laid those marble eggs.
The yellow wheel pictured
here is from a Tin Litho Racing
Car also known as the Boat
Tail Streamlined Race Car
Ladies do remember these?
They were very popular in the
1920s thru the 1940s. These are
the frames for making cloth
belt buckles. In fact if you look
closely there are still pieces of
material sticking to them.
In my future columns I will
be sharing more of my finds
with you.

high demand and projected low
levels of wind for wind farms
had lowered the amount of electricity that could be available.
Soon after that we received
a second email, Wilson said,
this one from KMEA (Kansas
Municipal Energy Agency)
stating SPP is declaring a need
for Conservative Operations
Advisory due to high loads and
wind generation output availability.
Wilson said he had not yet
approached issuing a city-wide
request to reduce electrical consumption, but that move would
be likely if more alerts came
from the SPP.
We havent asked residents
to conserve yet, however if we
receive any more communication from them, there is a possibility we will ask people to
conserve in order to keep us
from dealing with rolling outages, Wilson told the Review
yesterday.
Under
pressure
from
green energy policies and the
Environmental
Protection
Agency, power companies have
increasingly planned to reduce
firm electricity production
methods of coal powered generating plants in favor of lower
pollution but lower potential
production means like wind
and solar power. Evergy, from
whom Garnett purchases electricity, plans to stop coal powered production at its Lawrence
Energy Center by the end of
2023. In a 2021 rate filing, the
company pledged to close one
coal burning plant at Jeffrey in
2030 and one LaCygne plant in
2032 and would close remaining
units at those plants in 2039.
In the same filing, Evergy said
it would invest in 350 megawatts of solar power by the end
of 2023. It plans to convert the
Lawrence center to run on natural gas.
A hot spell earlier this month
made worse by high humidity
was sated late last week by cooler temps that dropped to 85 with
clouds on July 9. Temperatures
are forecast to climb into the
mid-to-upper 90s later this
week.

The Cherry Mound 4-H club met in April, May and June of 2022 at the Lucky13 clubhouse, the Westphalia school and the Westphalia park.
The April meeting was an exchange meeting with the Lucky 13 4-H club at their clubhouse. Both clubs held their business meetings. For
the program we learned how to throw the football from a Lucky 13 club member and the importance of greasing your farm equipment from
Cherry Mound member, Austin Teter. Both clubs enjoyed a game of four corners outside in the beautiful spring weather. Refreshments
were enjoyed courtesy of Lucky 13. May and June meetings were held at the Westphalia school and Westphalia park, respectively.
Members shared their plans for the summer during May roll call and their most prized possession in June. In May, Riley Young gave a talk
on wiring electrical in a barn. Max Jiminez talked about his 4-H hogs in June. Members were reminded of important dates coming in the
summer, fair information and upcoming deadlines. The May meeting also included a night of games and pizza after the business meeting.
June business included appointing Jayden Teter as the new secretary due to the departure of Hayden Newton.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 12, 2022
Creative Kids – Part 6
Lyndsay Hughes 6th Grade GES Mrs. Graham
Blights
By Mya Jumet
5th Grade, Central Heights
Mrs. Riemer
So, let me give you a history
lesson. Ten percent of people
have superpowers. Those people are called Blights. Blights
are looked down on, because
people think theyll use their
power for evil things.
But
that isnt true for most Blights.
Most blights want to do good
things with their power, but
theyre scared of getting found
out. And not surprisingly, the
main character has a power.
Her name is Harper. Her power
is hard to explain. She can create a blue tinted platform, and
no matter what height you fall
from, you can land on it and
live. Only her parents know.
Mom, Harper said one
day after school, I nearly got
found out! We were playing on
the equipment, and I fell. So I
used my power. I almost hit the
ground, and then activated it.
Just try to be more careful
next time. Her mom told her.
OK. Harper replied.
The next day, Harper went
on a walk, She got a few odd
looks from people who go to
her school. It was as though
they trusted her less than they
did the day before. Oh goodness, she thought, I hope they
dont suspect me. When she got
home, she asked her mom, Do
you know whats so unfair?
What? Her mom asked.
People are being looked
down on for things they cant
control! Things such as having
powers. Harper said.
I agree. That is unfair. her
mom said.
As Harper got home from
school the next day, she heard
a noise that sounded like wood
cracking. And then she heard
a couple of yelps. She turned
her head toward the sound.
Two people were hanging on
to the broken railing of a balcony. Suddenly what they were
holding on to broke under their
weight.
Without thinking,
she used her power to create a
staircase of platforms for them
so they could safely land on the
ground. As soon as the people landed on the ground, the
crowd began shouting:
Who did that?
What in the world?!
Whoever did that, show
yourself. Id like to thank you.
The crowd went silent.
Everyone tensed. The person
repeated themselves:
Whoever did that, show
yourself. I want to thank you.
And so Harper did. She
thought no one would trust her
anymore. Her legs were trembling. Was this a trick? Keep
in mind, Blights are looked
down on, so this is an appropriate reaction.
Thank you so so so much.
Those kids that you saved were
my children. If you hadnt been
there, they wouldnt be alive
right now. I promise I will
always remember you. Im
Andrew. He said. What if
your name? he asked.
Harper. She replied.
After that, people began
to trust Blights more. They
realized that they should give
Blights a chance to prove that
they deserve their power. They
realized that they were being
unfair to Blights. And Harper
realized that she changed many
peoples lives for the better.
Everyone remembered that day
for a long, long time. Oh, and
now they are not called Blights.
They are just special people.

Ashton Ferguson 4th Grade Greeley Mrs. Weisner
Betty
By Lori Chupp
6th Grade, Central Plains
Ms. Miller
It was in the 1850s and
there was a girl named Betty.
She lived in Texas with her
mom and dad and 2 little brothers. One day she was walking
to town to get some groceries
for her mom. When she saw
two strange men riding her
way. Quickly she ran behind
a tree. They hadnt seen her.
As they came closer she heard
them talking. One said, What
fun, tonight at 12:00 the bank
will be empty and well be
rich! What they didnt know
was that Betty had heard them
and was scared but she knew
she had to go on to town. So she
ran the rest of the way to town.
She decided she wasnt going
to tell anyone because what if
they wouldnt do it after all.
She got her groceries and went
home.
That night she crept out of
her bed and opened her window
and climbed down the small
tree that was below her window. She was hallway down
when she slipped and almost
fell off the branch she was
standing on. But she grabbed
a branch and quietly slipped
down to the ground. Once she
was on the ground she ran the
mile to town. There she hid
in the alley behind the bank
and waited till 12:00. Then she
heard them running over to
the window of the bank. They
opened it and climbed in.
Quickly she ran over to another window and peeped in. They
were at the desk talking quietly to themselves and laughing
every so often. One said We
are going to be rich Marve.
Betty watched a little more
then ran over to the polices
house and knocked. Nothing.
She knocked again. Still nothing. Finally on the third someone opened it. Quickly she told
what she had seen and both set
off running. But when they got
there there was no one in sight.
He asked what they looked like
and she told him. He searched
the rest of the night but found
nothing. He told her she did a
good thing even if the bank was
still robbed.
They never found one of the
robbers but they found one in
the woods and put him in jail.
But they never found the other.

The Garnett BPW organization has awarded their annual academic scholarships for the 2022 year to

the upcoming year. We want to thank our community for supporting BPW events such as Square Fair,

Colony Christian Church
– Gods Masterpiece
Bruce Symes gave the
Communion Meditation this
week about Freedom. When
we learn to trust God and the
Spirit dwells within us, we are
free. Free from fear, anxiety,
addictions, doubt and limitations. We are released from
anything that will restrain
us. As U.S. citizens celebrate
Independence Day, let us Christ
followers remember the cost
that has been paid to purchase
freedom – not just for a nation,
but for all people! There was
a war for all the human race
in which freedom for all people was purchased. The empty
tomb is a symbol of the cost of
true freedom for all people. (Ref:
Revelation 1:10; 2 Corinthians
3:17; Mark 10:27; Philippians
2:6-11; 1 Corinthians 15:54-55)
Pastor Chase Riebel gave the
sermon "God's Masterpiece".
We are God's creation, his masterpiece. Each day of creation,
God finished with the words "it
is good", but after creating man,
he said "it is VERY good". We
are made in the image of God.
Created to reflect his wisdom,
benevolence, and rulership as
stewards of his creation. And
he has given each of us special
gifts to influence those around
us and to bring glory to him.
But when sin came into the
world, what God called "very
good" became stained and broken and lost. When Jesus rose
from the grave, God's masterpiece was restored. And in
Christ, we were made perfect!
Because of this, we can do the
good things he planned for us
long ago. (Ref: Ephesians 2:10;
Psalm 139:13-14; Genesis 1:26-31'
1 Cpromtjoams 6"2-' 1 {eter 1"1819; Hebrews 10:14)) Hear this

ture. He quoted statistics pointing out high rates of suicide and
self harm among youths and
adults identifying as transgender, and said materials which
encouraged embracing gender
disphoria (a clinical term for
the mental disorder of stress
and anxiety in the acceptance
of ones actual sex) were dangerous to children who are vulnerable and impressionable.
This is designed to tell people how to think about transgenderism, Black said. This
idea that gender and sex are
independent is preposterous.

county governments the option
of adopting a mandate in their
own jurisdictions. Anderson
County Commissioners twice
voted against imposing a mandate locally.
Dr. Foegens eponymous
Foegen Effect theory states:
Deep re-inhalation of
hypercondensed droplets or
pure virions caught in facemasks as droplets can worsen
prognosis and might be linked
to long-term effects of COVID19 infection. While the Foegen
effect is proven in vivo in an
animal model, further research
is needed to fully understand
it.
The studys conclusion
The most important finding
from this study is that contrary
to the accepted thought that
fewer people are dying because
infection rates are reduced by
masks, this was not the case.
Results from this study strongly suggest that mask mandates
actually caused about 1.5 times
the number of deaths or 50%
more deaths compared to no
mask mandates.
Dr. Aaron Kheriaty agrees
with the studys findings in an
article published on Townhall.
com:
There is emerging evidence, a study out of Kansas
recently that suggested that the
case fatality rate with Covid is
higher where there are mask
mandates, Kheriaty said.
Once you get infected, if you
are wearing a mask, this study
suggested that your chance of
having a bad outcome, of dying
from Covid was higher. And
that probably has to do with
rebreathing these kind of condensed droplets that have a lot
of virus in them.
A Sentinel analysis also
found that Kansas counties
with mask mandates had higher COVID case growth.
Townhall.com
reporter
Scott Morefield succinctly summarizes the conclusion of the
Kansas study:
Of course, those of us with
a lick of common sense and the
ability to follow evolving data
knew this the entire time. Still,
its nice to see the research
finally beginning to catch up.
Sobba told the panel it was
she who purchased the book
for distribution, but said it did
not meet the mandatory criteria of the U.S. Supreme Court
as pornography. She said that
while she found elements of
the book distasteful, she didnt
believe the aim of the book
was sexual arousal instead
she said it was a chronoicle of
the authors experiences and
that it could have value for
people going through similar
circumstances. She also said
the library didnt presently
have the policy mechanics to
age restrict any materials.
If we were to put an age
restriction on this, then we
would have to put an age
restriction on all kinds of
things, Sobba said. Wed
have to redo every policy that
we have, and then we are no
longer a public library were
restricting everybody in one
way or another if we do that.
Dieter said as a retired
teacher she could see the value
in the books message for kids
struggling with their sexual
identity.
There are a group of kids
who have questions about their
gender not many but they
can benefit from this book. It
explained things for me that
I saw in some of my students,
way back whenever, but we
didnt have names for that situation.
Katzer said she agreed the
book could have value for kids
struggling with gender questions.
Walker, who took part in
previous protests of the book
in Johnson County, said she
planned to provide library
board members with the results
of survey data she planned to
gather from the local community regarding the book. The
August 8 meeting will begin at
meeting 6 p.m. at the library.

state of Kansas by adding a new section thereto stating that there is no
constitutional right to abortion, and reserving to the people the ability
to regulate abortion through the elected members of the legislature of
the state of Kansas.
WHEREAS, This proposition to amend the bill of rights of the
constitution of the state of Kansas shall be known and may be cited as
the Value Them Both Amendment.
Now, therefore:
Be it resolved by the Legislature of the State of Kansas, two-thirds of the
members elected (or appointed) and qualified to the House of
Representatives and two-thirds of the members elected (or appointed)
and qualified to the Senate concurring therein:
2×4 kpa dcf
Section 1. The following proposition to amend the constitution of
the state of Kansas shall be submitted to the qualified electors of the
state for their approval orrejection: The bill of rights of the constitution
of the state of Kansas is hereby amendedby adding a new section to read
as follows:
22. Regulation of abortion. Because Kansans value both
women and children, the constitution of the state of Kansas does
not require government funding of abortion and does not create or
secure a right to abortion. To the extent permitted by the constitution
of the United States, the people, through their elected state
representatives and state senators, may pass laws regarding
abortion, including, but not limited to, laws that account for
circumstances of pregnancy resulting from rape or incest, or
circumstances of necessity to save the life of the mother.
Sec. 2. The following statement shall be printed on the ballot with
the amendment as a whole:
Explanatory statement. The Value Them Both Amendment would
affirm there is no Kansas constitutional right to abortion or to
require the government funding of abortion, and would reserve
to the people of Kansas, through their elected state legislators,
the right to pass laws to regulate abortion, including, but not
limited to, in circumstances of pregnancy resulting from rape or
incest, or when necessary to save the life of the mother.
A vote for the Value Them Both Amendment would affirm there
is no Kansas constitutional right to abortion or to require the
government funding of abortion, and would reserve to the people
of Kansas, through their elected state legislators, the right to pass
laws to regulate abortion.
A vote against the Value Them Both Amendment would make no
changes to the constitution of the state of Kansas, and could
restrict the people, through their elected state legislators from
regulating abortion by leaving in place the recently recognized
right to abortion.
Sec. 3. This resolution, if approved by two-thirds of the members
elected (or appointed) and qualified to the House of Representatives,
and two-thirds of the members elected (or appointed) and qualified to
the Senate shall be entered on the journals, together with the yeas and
nays. The secretary of state shall cause this resolution to be published
as provided by law and shall cause the proposed amendment to be
submitted to the electors of the state at a special election which is
hereby called on August 2, 2022, pursuant to section 1 of article 14 of
the constitution of the state of Kansas, to be held in conjunction with
the primary election held on such date.
