THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT When a 10-year
tax break for East Kansas AgriEnergy ethanol plant expires at
the end of this year, it could add
as much as $6.5 million to local
tax coffers.
Thats good news for local
taxpayers and government taxing units, who already are looking forward to easing their tax
burden after several difficult

taxes on plant additions and

abatement was granted. Thats
because the plant was given a
10-year tax exemption as part
of an Industrial Revenue Bond

Work to bring a veterans

between $200,000 to $250,000 and
are hoping to pay for the memorial with a combination of a
small tax levy and donations.
The project has faced numerous delays over the year for a
variety of reasons from debate
over which veterans should
be included in the memorial
to questions about the design

ETHANOL…
FROM PAGE 1A
and collected, its too early to
know exactly how much revenue the ethanol tax will provide
for 2016.
Garnett and Anderson
County officials as well as taxpayers in general are eagerly anticipating that extra tax
income from the ethanol plant.
Garnett City Manager Joyce
Martin and county commissioner Gene Highberger both
said they are excited about
being able to add what could be
millions of dollars of revenue to
offset 2016 budget expenses.
Even though the tax exemption soon will end for the ethanol plant, EKAE has been paying various taxes throughout
its existence. Thats because the
exemption covers only the original property; any structures
added after that was assessed
like any other property and
taxed accordingly.
The plant also pays a business commodity tax to the city
in lieu of property taxes as
part of the negotiations for the
tax break, Martin said. That
amounted to about $162,500 per
year, but that also ends this
year.
For 2015, EKAE will pay
taxes on $3.3 million worth
of property, according to
Anderson County Appraiser
Steve Markham. Thats property added after the original
tax-exempt construction.
For 2015 EKAEs total
assessed value not counting
the exemption – is $32.7 million,
Markham said. Ethanol plants
are taxed on production value
rather than personal property.
EKAE also is building a facility to produce renewable diesel
fuel from the corn distillers oil
already produced at the plant.
Construction began in late 2014
and was expected to take about
a year. If the facility is completed by the end of the year,
property taxes will be assessed
against it in 2016, Markham
said. If it is not completed, taxes
will be assessed depending on
the percentage of the building
that has been completed. That
likely will increase the total
value of the company, as well as
provide more income to taxing
entities.
County and city officials will
need to determine how they
will spend the ethanol tax boon
when they figure the 2016 budget.
Martin said it was too early
to predict how city commissioners might handle the situation,
such as if they would use the
money to pay for additional
projects or keep expenses about
the same to reduce the tax burden on city residents. She said
the current group of commissioners always has been very
careful to consider the financial impact of their decisions
on taxpayers and may want to
reduce the tax burden. On the
other hand, the city has cut its
expenses so dramatically over
recent years that it is running
very lean, to the point that it has
had to forego some projects like
street repairs. Commissioners
may see this as an opportunity
to complete some of those projects or introduce others that
the public has asked for, like
improvements to the city pool.
The same decisions likely will
face county commissioners.
Highberger said its likely the
end result will fall somewhere
in the middle – reducing the
tax burden for citizens while
allowing the county to complete
projects it otherwise couldnt
afford.

In Kansas last year, 42 of 223
fire-related death victims were
65 or older. That represents 19
percent of all fire-related deaths
in the state. Thats less than the
national average of 35 percent.
The Kansas Fire Marshal
and Kansas Department for
Aging and Disability Services
(KDADS) offer these tips to
keep seniors safe from the dangers of fire:
When space heaters are on,
keep them at least three feet
away from anything that can
burn, such as curtains or furniture.
If youre exiting the room,
or if youre going to bed, make
sure that your turn off and
unplug the space heater.

for the committee at times and
slow sales of memorial bricks
that will help pay for the memorial.
It was never dead in the
water, County Clerk Phyllis
Gettler, a committee member
who has served as a spokesperson for the group, said. Its not
an easy project. Its not something thats going to materialize
overnight.
Greeley
artisan
Leon
Lickteig was selected to design
the memorial, and hell be in
charge of the construction.
Lickteig told county commissioners earlier this month it
will take six months to get the
marble panels engraved and
delivered. The company he
plans to work with will need
a down payment of 50 percent
of the cost when the slabs are
ordered, 25 percent when the
slabs are completed, and the
remaining 25 percent when the
slabs are delivered. The cost to
engrave the panels will be $1.50
per letter, so the cost will vary
depending on the number of
names submitted.
Organizers are in the final
stages of determining a list of
names. Gettler urges people to
stop by the clerks office at the
Anderson County Courthouse
in downtown Garnett to double-check names of loved ones.
Organizers will finalize the
list and send it to the marble
company in a month or two, she
said.
The memorial will include
the names of veterans regardless of donations from loved
ones, Gettler said. Some peo-
RECORDS…
ple are confused and think they
must purchase a memorial
brick in order to recognize a
veteran, she said. Thats not
the case. The memorial bricks
will be used to line a walkway
around the memorial. They
can include, within reason, the
name of any individual, family
or business. The bricks can be
engraved with up to 15 characters and are offered for a minimum donation of $100.
Gettler said the committee
would like to sell as many as
2,000 bricks, but so far they
have sold fewer than 100. The
bricks will serve as the primary
financial source for the project;
the county collects a small tax
levy one-tenth of a mill that
raises about $17,000 per year
so the memorial fund so far has
collected about $70,000.
The memorial is expected to
be built on the northeast side
of the courthouse lawn, with
a series of marble panels surrounded by tile and brick walking paths.
After learning the black marble panels from India will take
at least six months, county commissioners decided to wait until
next spring to begin construction. Lickteig said he plans
to start construction with the
memorial slabs, which are in
the back portion of the design.
It would be too complicated and
difficult to build the base of
bricks and tiles, then drive over
them to place the marble slabs,
so he will need to wait for the
slabs before beginning the project. Commissioners said they
also didnt want the project
hampered by bad weather in
the winter months.

EDITORIAL
Letterman was no Carson
I missed David Lettermans big signoff show last week not surprising since
I pretty much gave up on him in 2008. But
the expected hubbub about his final show
pointed out in my mind that Id seen two
eras of late night comedy come to an end.
I liked the first one better.
Maybe it was an issue of acclimation.
Id grown up with Johnny Carson. My
family watched him almost every weeknight my brother and I used to con
our folks into letting us stay up to hear
Johnnys monologue. I didnt even know
what a monologue was, but I knew he did
one, it was funny, and it got me out of
going to bed on time.
Carson was a comedian. Letterman
was a clown. Carsons writers wrote jokes,
skits and parodies and hoped theyd be
funny. Letterman dropped ice cream cakes
off buildings.
Carson would interview celebrities
but also interesting guests. Hed have the
Arkansas State Hog Calling Champion
on the show, or some other real-life oddity whose contrast with the glitzy show
business Tonight Show aura made their
appearances on the show even more poignant. Letterman would pester his guests
and interrupt them to try to make himself
look more cute.
It wasnt necessarily all Lettermans
fault. The audience was changing, too.
The audience that got such a kick out of
watching Bob Hope, Dean Martin, Sammy
Davis Jr., John Wayne and that ilk as
guests on Johnnys show were yielding
to the whoop-whoop-whoop crowd that
was following Arsenio Hall. Letterman,
who started out with some very funny and
creative ideas (remember the Velcro suit
stunt in which he jumped off a trampoline
and stuck himself to a Velcro wall? I have
to hand it to him on that one that was
funny) knew his audience was becoming
less sophisticated, more based on their
tastes, more short-attention spanned and
eventually more nose-in-phone. The gags
had to become more innane and easier for
the new breed of late night dullard viewers to understand.
Then there was the endless parade of
so-called celebrities Letterman played host

to, shoveled onto the shows schedule by
the conglomerates who own the late shows
as well as the motion picture companies
who use the talk shows to promote their
latest releases. Carsons celebrity guests
came at the caliber of Jimmy Stewart
and Bing Crosby and Phyllis Diller;
Lettermans were single-syllable types
like Joaquin Phoenix or ranting Tina Fey
liberals. As our society accepted less in
terms of general manners and decorum, so
did we accept less in quality of celebrity
yet we became ever more obsessed with
them.
Not only did audiences become more
intellectually shallow but their numbers
got thinner as well. When Johnny started
out in 1962 there were three TV networks
three options for late night programming. Cable television, satellite service,
later Netflix and streaming Internet
options they split the audience hundreds
of ways and gave us way more options
than Leno or Letterman.
In the end Letterman probably got
tired of this game himself. He most certainly must have gotten tired of being
thrashed in the ratings by Jimmy Kimmel
and Jimmy Fallon.
But Letterman gets credit for setting
the tone and direction of the talk shows
that followed him thats probably why I
have so painfully little interest in Kimmel
or Fallon, et. al. They make me miss
Johnny Carson all the more.

I bet that school the historical society museum is in had a cafeteria. They should hang
all the old stuff on the walls, get a liquor
license and open The Anderson County
Historical Society Bar & Grill.
You could nearly put a new football field in
front of the new hospital where they tore the
old hospital down. When they have the little
park built in there with the trees and the
bushes you wont even be able to see the hospital from the road. This seems to be an odd
arrangement. I voted for the new hospital
and I think we needed it but I think its too
bad there wasnt some way to tear down the
old one and build the new one on that site
instead of moving it way back off the road
like that. When people pass by they should
be able to see the hospital. Thank you.
The problem with high speed rail
The Amtrak crash outside of Philadelphia
was an invitation for practically every politician in the Northeast and every transit
expert in America to complain about lack of
funding for the countys infrastructure.
They didnt even wait to know what was
the cause of the tragedy to take to the airwaves and recite the usual litany of laments
for our crumbling infrastructure and our
lack of high-speed rail.
What these advocates rarely do is take
account of Amtrak as it actually exists. It
is a test case of a highly subsidized (and
politicized) rail system. Hideously inefficient
and wasteful, Amtrak is rail brought to you
by the federal government, with the results
about what you would expect. Amtrak is the
DMV in an Uber world. All told, the taxpayers pour about $1 billion into it a year.
Amtraks unionized employees made on
average more than $90,000 a year in wages
and benefits as of a couple of years ago.
Outside of the Northeast and a few other
places, it serves uneconomical routes that
account for the bulk of its losses (although
Congress insists on those routes for political
reasons). Amtrak cant even sell food and
drink to a captive audience at a profit. It loses
$80 million a year on its food service.
If Amtrak is the future of American
transit, American transit has no future.
Yet visions of high-speed rail dance in the
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
heads of liberal rail enthusiasts, who believe
that what we need is Amtrak, only more so.
President Barack Obama is a devotee, urging
on the country to match the high-speed rails
of Europe and Asia and backing his vision
with billions in federal dollars.
The problem with high-speed rail in the
U.S. is that few places outside the Northeast
have the population density to support it, so
the economics dont work. High-speed rail
is one thing in densely populated Japan; it
is another thing altogether in the sprawling
continental United States.
Although its not as glamorous, we already
have an extensive transit system that can
take people door to door pretty much anyplace they want to go — i.e., roads. If people dont want to drive between cities, they
have the option of buses, which are cheaper
than trains even if they dont have the same
romance.
And, of course, airplanes are faster than
trains. Randal OToole of the libertarian Cato
Institute points out that the travel patterns of
Americans dont support the soaring ambitions of the passenger-rail enthusiasts. As of
2012, highways accounted for 87 percent of
passenger travel and airlines 12 percent, but
Amtrak only .14 percent.
Its not as though the country cant do rail.
Its just that we are good at moving goods
rather than people. Our freight-rail system is
world-class. Deregulated by the 1980 Staggers
Rail Act, the freight sector has benefited
from abundant private investment. Cheap
and efficient, freight rail is doing booming
business. No one brags about freight rail,
though, because it lacks the appeal of grandiose public infrastructure projects and doesnt
entail envy of France.
Amtrak may be many things, but it is
emphatically not an argument for more government investment in passenger rail.

Legislators dabble in court management
Remember the separation of powers
business you learned in school? You know,
theres the executive branch of government,
the legislative branch of government and
the judiciary, separate from the other two
because theres not supposed to be politics in
the courts.
Welltheres an interesting little provision in the Legislatures yet-to-be passed bill
that would finance the judiciary in Kansas
for the next two years that has the Legislature
dabble in the management of the Judiciary
and maybe it is constitutional, maybe not.
Heres the deal. The Legislature, dabbling,
of course, tied the last two years judicial budget to a shakeup in court management that
most people never heard about: Judges of
the states 31 judicial districts will elect their
local chief judge instead of having the judge
appointed by the Chief Justice of the Kansas
Supreme Court. Oh, and that chief judge in
each of the districts can opt to take over the
budget of each district, deciding which judge
gets a new desk, more staff, whatever
The judiciary, of course, wasnt intrigued
by this dabbling, seeing it as just the first
baby step into injecting politics into the operation of the courts. There was opposition by
the court to linking those organization policy
changes and the budget for the courts in the
same bill, but it happened.
And, the plot grew thicker when a district
court judge from out west this spring filed
a lawsuit asserting that the management
issues that the Legislature inserted into the
previous judicial budget bill were uncon-

MARTIN HAWVER, At The Rail
stitutional. Thats the appropriations/policy
bill for the fiscal year which ends June 30.
Well, the new bill that finances court operations for the two years starting July 1 has
that non-severability clause, too. Which
means the policy issues in the nearly expired
budget/policy bill will carry over into the
next appropriation for the judiciary.
The new budget bill renews that non-severability clause, which means if the policy
decisions the Legislature imposed on the
court are found to be unconstitutionalby
the courtsthat because the policy issues
and the budget are unseverable, the policy
issues are thrown away and so is the appropriation to operate the courts.
Hmmm Sounds a little like extortion, or
at least a lesser included offense, doesnt it?
So, if the dabbling with court management
is found by the courts to be unconstitutional,
theres no budget for the courts. Any chance
that might influence a court decision on the
management provisions that the Legislature
passed? Any chance that a judge hearing this
case will wonder whether he/she can make
his/her car payments if there is no judicial
budget that provides their salary?
Thats just the first issue of the Legislature
sticking its nose into the operation of a different branch of government.
And, of course, if that western Kansas
judge wins his suit and lawmakers cant
essentially manage the courts, the issue then
quickly turns to whether the non-severability clause cutting off funding for the courts
works. Thats the bigger issue that will have
wider ramifications on the public than judges
deciding who runs their district court.
Of course, theres a chance that the
non-severability clause is unconstitutional
for some reason other than just not feeling right to some grown-up Kansans. So,
if the judge wins and the Legislature cant
dictate who manages the courts, thats one
thing, and it leads to the second step of this
dance, whether a non-severability clause in
itself is an unconstitutional overstep of the
Legislatures authority.
And, the courts will decide that one, too.

I was interested to read the story in the paper
about the ATVs tearing up the dam at the
reservoir. This is not a new problem, this has
been going on ever since the reservoir was
built. I think the city council should go ahead
and let them have their ATVs at the reservoir
but they should have an annual fee of about
$250 so they can save up the money to help
pay for the damage theyre doing out there.
It would be nice if emergency management
would let people in Garnett know where
storm shelters are located. Thank you.
Please people, when your dog goes to poop

and clean up after them. I dont appreciate
stepping in it.
Yep, I went and did it. I finally dumped this
cable TV system for satellite. I dont know
why I havent done this sooner.
Lets see if I understand this correctly.
President Obummer, er, Obama, wants to
take away certain equipment being used by
police departments. He says this equipment
scares and intimidates his brothers and sisters. Glory be, we cant have this. After all,
who wants to be hassled by the police when
youre having fun destroying sections of cities, looting, burning, throwing bricks, etc.?
Hey, just ask the mayor of Baltimore.
Isnt it ironic that because someone made a
remark about the new hospital not offering
any new services, that one of the promoters
had to come out and talk about our new stateof-the art technology and you dont have to go
out of town to get X-rays done and the people
are so friendly? Well you could get X-rays
at the old hospital. So what did we gain but
higher taxes? Obama used to say you can put
lipstick on a pig, but youve still got a pig.

prehistoric fossil was found
through the generosity, friendliness and supportive attitudes
of the family on whose farm
the digs were made, and a
Canadian who organized the
display said he wanted the
public to appreciate all those
who labored to uncover the
mysteries of a bygone era
on the grounds that are now
called northwestern Anderson
County. The mother of the
family, Margaret Hardesty, on
whose farm they were digging
between 1979-82, let us live in
the shack and I remembered
the ice cream she gave us. The
remains were approximately
300 million years old. The area
was a coniferous forest then
and the trees extended to the
shore of a sea near Garnett.
The region gradually flooded
and the forest and its inhabitants were washed away or
covered with mud. The resulting rock formations contain a
rich assemblage of fossil pants,
trackways and animals. The
amphibian prehistoric animal
was unique to the Garnett area.

The 50 feet of pipe and necessary appliances for connecting
the boiler with the engine at the
city electric light plant arrived
in Garnett last night. Today it is
to be transported to the power
house and the work of installing it has begun. When the shipment of pipe for the electric
plant was invoiced today, when
workmen were ready to take it
to the power house, it was found
that some of the importand connections were missing. This
will prevent the connections
from being made until a new
order can be made.

DIGGING UP THE PAST
2005: Freeze puts crops in danger
May 17, 2005
Nearly a decade after it started one of the most contentious
debates in recent times, state
officials say construction on the
final leg of the Prairie Spirit
Trail from Welda to Iola should
be finished by late fall of this
year.
Anderson County farmers
may have a cold weather bullet
in late April and early May.
Anderson County experienced
sub-freezing temperatures on
April 24, 25 and 30, and again
on May 2 and 3. Farmers said
they expected to see considerable damage to wheat caused
by those below freezing temperatures. Yields could have
dropped by as much as 50 percent because of freezing temperatures.
May 22, 1995
Heavy rains last week have
more than put a damper on
area corn planting. Most farmers who havent got corn in the
fields already probably wont
plant any more this year. Wet
fields will have the additional
effect of preventing the germination of corn seed that has
already been planted, but hasnt
yet come up. Some of the early-planted corn, which many
farmers in Anderson County
were able to plant because of
the mild winter, was looking
strong due to warm, sunny
weather in the area a couple of
weeks ago.
Anderson County received
a $21,080 grant from the
Historical Preservation Office
of the Kansas State Historical
Society that will be used to help
pay for repairs to the Anderson
County Courthouse. The money
will be used to fix the steps on
the north and south sides of
the building and complete some
tuckpointing on the bricks in
the buildings towers.

Chamber Players offer female version of The Odd Couple
Rock & Roll or Country & Western?
Beer & pretzels or wine & cheese? Cats
or Dogs? If you choose any one of these,
chances are you know someone who
would choose the other. The world is
full of opposites, and nowhere will you
find a better example of opposites than
in Garnetts Thelma Moore Community
Playhouse where The Chamber Players
Community Theatre presents The
Odd Couple Female Version by Neil
Simon. This theatrical twist on Simons
original The Odd Couple, is a leading
ladies version that brings a uniquely
feminine perspective to the classic comedy and promises to tickle the funny
bone and fill the room with laughter.
Jackie Fursman (Garnett), longtime CPCT veteran, portrays Florence
Ungar, the neat freak who loves to cook,
clean and spend her evenings complaining about her ailments. Thats a strong
contrast to Olive Madison, played by
CPCT veteran Shauna Devening (New
Strawn), who prefers ballpark franks,
clutter, and a night of passion spent in
the arms of a man. Any man. Theyre
Fursman
Devening
long-time friends but the relationship is
put to the test when they become roommates. Although the living arrangement
has good intentions, the claws soon come
out and the action quickly escalates into
throwing things: witty insults, teacups,
plates of pasta and the like. And whats
a roommate spat without a room full of
dysfunctional friends to help smooth out
the bumps? A weekly game of Trivial
Pursuit is a girls night out for tough
cop Mickey (Katrina Kichler, Garnett),
gossipy Renee (Hannah Snedecor,
Garnett), wise-cracking Sylvie (Amanda
Holloman, Greeley), and ditzy Vera
(Krystal Stahl, Richmond). Theyre
a comedic quartet of sass, brass, and
brassieres.
No comedy would be
complete without a little heat. Hotblooded Spanish brothers Manolo (Dave
Schwarzer, Ottawa) and Jesus (Gary
Rommelfanger, Garnett) round out the
ensemble with hilarious bravado.
Neil Simons The Odd Couple
opened on Broadway in 1965 introducing Felix Ungar (played by Art Carney)
and Oscar Madison (Walter Matthau) to
the world. The play ran for 964 performances and earned Simon his first Tony
Award. In 1968, he adapted the play
for the movie screen. Jack Lemmon
replaced Carney as Felix and Simon
was nominated for an Academy Award.
Perhaps the most familiar pairing is
from the television sitcom, launched
in 1970 and starring Tony Randall as
Felix and Jack Klugman as Oscar.
The womens incarnation of The Odd
Couple made its Broadway debut in
1985. Simon has now been nominated
for more Academy Awards and Tony
Awards combined than any writer in
history. He won the Pulitzer Prize for
drama in 1991 for Lost in Yonkers and
the Mark Twain Prize for American
Humor in 2006.
As the final production of CPCTs
24th season, The Odd Couple Female
Version runs June 4-7 and 11-14. The
Chamber Players will perform matinees on June 7, 13 &14 at 12:30 pm. All
other performances will be at 6:30 pm.
Catered by ACA Catering of Edgerton,
KS, tickets are $22 for adults and $17
for K-12 students. Advanced purchase
is required. For reservations, call the
theater at785-304-1683.
The Chamber Players will celebrate
their Silver Anniversary Season beginning in August with Cheaters by
Michael Jacobs, running August 20-23
and 27-30. Tickets go on sale to members of the theater on July 27 and to
the general public on August 3. To join

GES students study robotics
Through a Clorox Grant
with funds specially designated for GES, several computerized Finch robots were
purchased this year.
On Friday, May 8, Rich
White, a computer robotics
specialist from Greenbush,
met with 15 GES 5th grad-
ers.
Among other things, students learned beginning
coding, programming, and
how to create simple computer games.
By the afternoon, students were able to apply
their programming skills to
move their robots down specific lines or through mazes.
Although it was very
challenging,
students
enjoyed applying previous
math and computer skills
with new thought processes
in this fun project.
Tyler Feuerborn & Zack Mead set up a new program for their robot.

Budget, taxes still get most discussion at statehouse
May 15, 2015
It has been reported that
some schools are barely scraping by and need to make cuts
to schedules and/or staff as a
result of the legislature cutting K-12 funding. According
to the Kansas Department of
Education (KDE) this year there
was a $142 million increase in
state aid K-12 funding: 2013-14
funding was $2.95 billion not
including KPERS and $3.26 billion including KPERS; while
2014-15 funding will be $3.09 billion not including KPERS and
$3.4 billion including KPERS.
That is an increase of $142.19
million not including KPERS
and $144.72 including KPERS.
There are some who will tell
you that the increase is because
the legislature started counting
KPERS money. The numbers
from KDE show there was an
increase even when KPERS
money in not included.
Budget and Tax are still two
main topics being discussed in
Topeka. As you can imagine,
with 165 legislators, there are
several items being considered
to close the $400 million gap
between the budget and reve-

nue estimates (tax collection
estimates). One of the items,
under consideration is to
freeze the budget and freeze
individual income tax cuts that
are in law for 2016 and 2017.
Other items being discussed
are increased taxes on everything from income to liquor. A
small group of legislators are
proposing putting the income
tax back on small businesses
and creating a tax credit for
small businesses with employees. This group is ignoring that
all small businesses contribute
to the Kansas economy. Ronald
Reagan said that government
attitude is, If it moves, tax it.
If it keeps moving regulate it.
And if it stops moving, subsidize it. It seems this mindset
and the dont tax me – tax
the other guy is prevalent in
Topeka.
The majority of 2012 state
tax cuts went to individuals in
the form of income tax cuts and
an increase on standard deductions, even though the most
talked about portion of the bill
is that small businesses are
not paying income taxes. One
report says, at least 22 states
project budget shortfalls for the
coming fiscal year. With 21
states and Kansas experiencing
decreased state revenues, there
may be other factors than the
Kansas 2012 income-tax cuts
contributing to the budget gap.
The Senate passed the conference committee report for
Senate Substitute for House
Bill (S Sub for HB) 2095 which
extends the working after
retirement for KPERS employees. The current law that allows
individuals receiving KPERS
to return to work for another KPERS eligible employer
sunsets this year and is not
compliant with federal regulation. In order for individuals
to continue employment and
bring Kansas into compliance,
the Senate passed the report
unanimously.
Kansas has also been out of
compliance regarding spring
elections for sending military
ballots. House Bill (HB) 2104
changes election law by moving spring elections to the fall
and keeping them non-partisan
in odd-years. Starting in 2017,
local elections will be held in
November odd-years instead of
April. Winners of these elections will take office in January
of the next year. The Kansas
County Clerks Association and
others believe that the changes
could increase voter turnout
and get more Kansans involved
in local government. I dont
know if it will increase turnout,
but it does bring us into compliance, providing our troops an
opportunity to vote in our local
elections and simplifies the
dates for elections. Kansas primary elections will be held the
first Tuesday of every August
and general elections will be
held the first Tuesday of every
November. The bill passed the
Senate 22 to 13. I voted Yes.
Senate Bill (SB) 91 will
replace the Renewable Energy
Portfolio (RPS) requirements
from a mandated 20% of renewable energy to a negotiated goal
of 20%. There was support from
Wind Energy leaders, who were
in strong opposition of a bill in
2013 that would have repealed
the RPS 20% requirement. The
bill passed the Senate on a vote
of 35 to 3. I voted Yes.
The Senate unanimously passed HB 2154 which will
allow employers the option to
adopt policy to give preferential hiring to veterans. The bill
will also grant in-state tuition
to all current military personnel and their spouses or dependents.

When should you
fish for customers?
You cant catch fish in a dry
pond and you cant attract customers when they wont buy. If
your business itself is seasonal
or your products are bigger sellers during certain times of the
year, the idea of seasonality is
a concept youve got to embrace
to sell the most stuff.
It might seem like basic logic
to most of us, but Ive had business owners try to convince me
in the past that they didnt need
to promote when sales were
already good, because, hey Im
already busy enough. The time
to try to sell more, they argued,
was in months when sales had
trickled off, because those are
the times when you need to
pump up sales.
The truth, of course, is exactly the opposite, and the proof is
in the actions of your customers.
Do this exercise: Take a piece
of graph paper and chart your
sales in all 12 months of last
year. Obviously some months
are better than others, and the
seasonality of your business or
your products will be revealed
by clusters of months that are
higher, say, spring/summer if
youre a lawn care business,
January-April if you prepare
taxes, etc.
These are your pulse periods,
and if youve been in business
any amount of time you probably already have a feel for these
pulses times when for some
reason youre busier or customers are more active.
So when the fish are hungry,
thats when you need to be fishing. As you connect the dots on
your sales graph, you should
also plot points on your promotional budget that roughly follow your sales graph. However
you promote boosted
Facebook posts, radio advertising, sales people who go door-todoor, industry newsletters, etc.

in a Community Showcase you want to apply more bud- style event for a chance to win
get during the times customers
are most likely to buy.
Thats because like fishing when the fish are biting
the more hooks you have in
the water when theyre hungry the more fish youll catch.
Apportioning your budget more
generously during the times
customers are more likely to
buy means you have a better
chance of landing them. If
youre not there when the fish
are biting, some other fishermans going to go home with
your fish.
Conversely, using your budget to push product when customers are naturally not interested makes your promotional

on investment will be naturally
lower than if you bumped up
your spending during times the
market is more responsive.

How shall we escape? Minckley 50th anniversary
In the Old Testament perhaps no man struggled with
God more than Jacob.
In Genesis 32:22-30 we read,
That night Jacob got up and
took his two wives, his two
maidservants and his eleven sons and crossed the ford
of the Jabbok. After he had
sent them across the stream he
sent over all his possessions.
So Jacob was left alone, and
a man wrestled with him till
daybreak. When the man saw
that he could not overpower
him, he touched the socket of
Jacobs hip so that his hip was
wrenched as he wrestled with
the man. Then the man said,
Let me go, for it is daybreak.
But Jacob replied, I will not
let you go unless you bless me.
The man asked him, What
is you name?
Jacob, he answered
Then the man said, Your
name will no longer be Jacob
but Israel, because you have
struggled with God and with
men and have overcome.
Jacob said, Please tell me
your name.
But he replied, Why do you
ask my name? Then he blessed Jacob there.
So Jacob called the place
Peniel, saying, It is because I
saw God face to face, and yet my
life was spared.
First I believe we need to
identify who this man was
that Jacob wrestled with. The
Schofield Study Bible states
that when Jacob said that he
had seen the Lord face to face
he simply meant that he had
looked at a Divine Being, the
Angel of the Lord.
Scripture says that Jacob
and the man wrestled till daybreak. Jacob was physically
a very strong man. Physical
strength is a wonderful gift
from God. I dont believe this
wrestling was only about physical strength. I believe God was
wrestling with Jacob over his
Ga

strong will. You see Jacobs
will was bent toward himself.
He tricked his brother Esau out
of his birthright, then deceived
his father into giving him the
family blessing which should
have gone to Esau. This type of
behavior was typical of Jacob
throughout his life.
In Genesis 47:9, we read
Jacobs own summary of his life
as he gives it to Pharaoh. And
Jacob said to Pharaoh, The
years of my pilgrimage are a
hundred and thirty. My years
have been few and difficult, and
they do not equal the years of
the pilgrimage of my fathers.
Jacob struggled through life
much like we do today. Because
of Jacobs strong will God
wrestled with him through his
entire life. God wrestles with
each of us. For the most part
I dont think many of us realize
he is ever there. We just see
another obstacle in our life to
overcome. If we try to operate
our life independently of God
we are rejecting him. God does
not condemn us. We do that to
ourselves.
In John 3:17 we read, For
God did not send his Son into
the world to condemn the
world, but to save the world
through him. You see Jesus
died for the ungodly which is
you and me. In simple terms he
was a substitute for me on that
cross. I deserved the cross but
he suffered for me.
In the letter to the Hebrews
the writer asks this question
which all of us must answer.
How shall we escape if we
ignore such a great salvation?
