Tornado Season Strikes Midwest expected to reopen
Oklahoma tornado serves as deadly
reminder of a storms potential
Local church
leads efforts
to help Moore
families recover
Former ACHS coach
talks about life in
Moore, tornadoes
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – When your
friends and neighbors need
help, you do what you can.
Thats the message
behind a relief effort spearheaded by the Garnett
Nazarene Church to help
people whose lives were
changed by an F5 tornado
that ripped through Moore,
Okla., last week. The efforts
include working with a
family that lives in Moore
but once called Anderson
County home.
Its too early to help
Moore residents rebuild, but
church officials last week
collected specific items to
help with the early stages
of recovery. That includes
things like batteries and
flashlights.
At the very onset, you
cant get in there and clean
but people still need tarps
and Rubbermaid containers
for what they can find and
carry, Rhonda Rhoades,
representing the church,
said.
The church was expected
to deliver a van filled with
relief items on Saturday,
May 25.
The church is working with Trinity Nazarene
Church in Oklahoma, which
is scheduling relief efforts
for other churches and volunteers.
Local church volunteers
also are keeping in close
contact with former Garnett
residents who now live in
Moore. Culley and Cheryl
Seymour moved to Moore
in 1999. Culley Seymour
was a teacher at Anderson
County High School and
coached basketball and
golf from 1994 to 1999. He
now teaches at a Christian
school in Moore. Rhoades
said she has kept in close
contact with the Seymours,
who were fortunate that
their home was not damaged. Cheryl Seymours
parents, however, were not
as fortunate. Their home
was damaged, and they are
staying with the couple.
Culley Seymour said his
familys house was more
than a mile away from the
tornados path. He was
teaching at the time, while
his family sought shelter
with neighbors. He heard
weather reports that the
tornado was headed straight
for the Warren Center, near
where his wifes parents
lived, and he called them.
His father-in-law said they
planned to ride out the
storm. They and their home
managed to escape relatively unscathed.
Mother Nature could
put damper on plans
with this years corn
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT- Its still too early to
predict what kind of corn crop
will arrive this fall, but ethanol
plant officials continue to say
they plan to restart operations
with the fall harvest.
A representative of East
Kansas Agri-Energy ethanol
plant said last week that plans
remain the same to restart the
plant in the fall. The ethanol
plant, meanwhile, will stay shuttered with a minimal amount of
employees until it can restart
production.
Whether those plans materialize will depend mostly on
Mother Nature, who already
pushed this years corn harvest back by about a month.
Spring rains have gone a long
way toward relieving the area
of the drought that plagued
the state for two years, leading to two devastated corn seasons that forced the ethanol
plant to close in October. KState Research and Extension
Agent Shannon Blocker said
previously that if the weather
cooperates and temperatures
do not get too hot in July when
the corn is at a critical state, it
wont matter that the corn got
a late start. But the crops success will depend on a variety of
factors, such as the amount of
rain it receives, temperatures
and diseases. This years wheat
crop received appropriate rain
and temperatures, but has been
plagued by disease.
The ethanol plant suspended
production in October of 2012
because of the drought, which
lowered corn supplies and
raised prices. The demand for
gasoline was low at the time,

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MOUND CITY – Whether it was
helping law enforcement officers determine how a fire started or implementing new policies
and procedures at the Garnett
Police Department, David Yates
made a lasting impression on
law enforcement in Anderson
County.
Yates, a former Kansas
Fire Marshals Office investigator, one-time candidate for
Anderson County Sheriff and
Garnett Public Safety Director,
died Wednesday, May 22, at the
age of 66, after a long illness.
He was one of the most
professional people I have ever
known, Garnett City Manager
Joyce Martin
said of Yates.
E v e n
before Yates
was
hired
as the citys
public safety
director, he
frequently
Yates
worked with
local officials
to help determine the cause of
fires as a state fire marshal.
Anderson
County
Undersheriff Tom Laiter said
he worked with Yates on several
fire cases, such as a fire at Astro
Cap Manufacturing and a series
of arson fires at small, rural
schoolhouses several years ago.
Like Martin, Laiter praised
Yates for his professionalism
and skills as an investigator.
He was a great guy, Laiter

Tips to survive a tornado: Listen to
warnings, have a plan, find shelter
Oklahoma tornado reminds
residents to be prepared,
find some type of shelter
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Last weeks tornado
devastation in Oklahoma serves as a
reminder to people of the need to seek
underground shelter, Anderson County
Emergency Management Director J.D.
Mersman said.
Its important to have a plan before
a tornado warning is issued, Mersman
said. If you dont have a basement, seek
public shelter. If a public shelter isnt
readily available, talk with neighbors
or friends close by and see if they have
a basement or shelter.
If no shelter is available, you need to
put as many walls or floors between you
and the outside as possible, Mersman
said. Look for a closet or interior room
on the lowest floor, he said.
Local emergency management and
fire department officials last week
announced a cooperative plan with
local churches to provide emergency
public shelters at four churches in
Garnett. The need for public storm
shelters had been discussed for many
years, but a committee was formed
about a year ago to find a way to fill the
need.
The churches include: First United
Methodist Church, 205 S. Oak St.; Holy
Angels Church, 514 E. Fourth Ave.;
First Baptist Church, 417 S. Walnut St.;
and the Dunkard Brethren Church,
1020 S. Westgate Road.
In the event of imminent severe
weather, emergency management officials will notify a representative of
the church that the shelter needs to be
opened.
For people who want the security
of their own storm shelter but do not
have a basement or other underground
shelter, another option is to purchase a
premanufactured shelter. Such shelters
have become popular in places where
wind and tornadoes are common,
and have been popularized recently
by television shows like Doomsday
Preppers.

Area residents had plenty of
time to prepare for the storm,
according to the article on the
Kansas Historical Societys website, written by Rebecca Martin
in July 2011. Weather officials
watched a massive but slowmoving storm roll into Kansas
from Colorado. At about 5:30
p.m. April 26, Garnett residents
saw a funnel cloud in the western sky, near Westphalia.
Adams, a farmer and amateur photographer, was able to
assemble his box camera and
capture the long, rope-like funnel. He later sold souvenir cabinet cards and stereographs of
the image, but a photographer
in South Dakota took a more
dramatic photograph of three
cyclones just four months later.
That more dramatic photo was
advertised as the first photographed cyclone, and experts
now believe it may have been
altered, according to Martins

The Kansas Chapter of the
International Association of
Arson Investigators named
Yates the Investigator of the
Year for 2003, after his probe
of the historic West Scipio and
Earnest School fires in 2003
yielded evidence for the arrest
and conviction of four suspects. Yates lost the election for
Anderson County sheriff in 2004
by 40 votes to Scot Brownrigg.
While working as the citys
public safety director, Yates
oversaw both the police department and fire department. He
insisted that officers follow
standard operating procedures
and implemented policies that
are still in effect today, Martin
said, such as procedures to help
officers better track evidence.
He was always honest with
you. You always knew where
you stood, Martin said. Being
proud of what you do and who
you are – he tried to instill that
in officers.
Yates moved to Kansas at
the age of 6 months and graduated from Greeley High School
in 1965. He married his high
school sweetheart, Barbara
Ann Miller, in 1968 and they
had a daughter.
Yates worked in law enforcement, including positions with

High school valedictorians
are like martinis: one is
awesome, but 12s too many
Multiple valedictorians has become a
common sight among Anderson County
graduations and the rest of the nation for
that matter in the last decade or so, ever
since high school curriculums started
giving more credit for harder classes and
since some college classes have been fitted
into high school curriculums and allowed
dual credit.
Tougher classes in a range of disciplines have ramped
up potential credits EDITORIAL
and given solid-performing students
a better chance of
meeting or even
exceeding the 4.0
grade point average usually set as
the threshold for
being named valedictorian. Some
larger high schools
by Dane Hicks,
in the country have
PUBLISHER
had as many as 41
valedictorians in
one graduating class, each of them legitimately earned according to their schools
grade rankings.
Thats obviously not a bad thing in and
of itself. If more kids challenge themselves
and perform well they can improve their
ranking. Thats the kind of message we
should, after all, be sending to our young
adults in a society and dog-eat-dog world
where performance matters.
But to the real idea of a valedictorian
and salutatorian the number one and
number two academic rankings of any
given academic body and those generally
honored in a traditional high school graduation we should raise the bar so that winning one of those posts is special again.
Remember Johnny Weissmuller, the
1924 Olympic 100 meter swimming champion and later star of the Tarzan movies
of the 30s and 40s? In the Olympics of 1924
he was the fastest human ever to be timed
in the 100 meters at 57.4 seconds. But
advanced training techniques, adjustments
and new designs for competition pools
and more physically conditioned athletes
resulted in increasingly lowered times. In
the 1980s and 1990s, female college swimmers were regularly beating Weissmullers
old records in their training sessions.
In 2009 Brazils Cesar Cielo set the new
record at 46.91.
We see it in every Olympics old
records shattered by newcomers who
deserve every bit of the fame they receive.
But we always name a new champion
someone who clearly stands above the
rest. We dont give everyone a medal just
because they beat Weissmullers time.
We look to competition enough to see the
value in having a real winner. If we dont
then were left with little more than an
elevated sense of mediocrity. In the words
of the villain Syndrome in the Pixar animated super hero romp The Incredibles,
Everyone can be super! And when everyones super…no one will be.
Its been suggested in other parts of
the country that committees of teachers,
administrators and parents of non-graduating students convene to select a valedictorian and salutatorian from among the
qualifying candidates by assessing other
criteria like leadership, citizenship, community service, etc. Others have suggested
determining a separate scoring mechanism which would accompany a students
grade point average that would measure
some of these more subjective criteria over
his/her school career and which could be
used as a tie-breaker in the case of multiple 4.0s.
For its part Anderson County High
School will implement certain additional
honors-based criteria next year which
should tighten the race a little.
Any method is subjective, but we
should pursue one with the mission of
arriving each year with a name at the top
of the heap.
No matter how many outstanding
students we have, one of them every year
deserves the honor of being top of his/her
class.
I have just read the article about
Terry Solander and his remarks
about cleaning up the city. I am concerned and hope the rest of the community is concerned too when he
commented, and I quote: It is my
decision whats prosecuted. When
did Terry Solander become a dictator.
Thank you.
The medias Tea Party moment
BY RICH LOWRY
NATIONAL REVIEW
Rarely has the White House briefing
room so resembled the main ballroom at
a meeting of the Conservative Political
Action Conference.
After news broke
of a sweeping Justice
Department subpoena
of The Associated Press
telephone
records,
White House press
secretary Jay Carney
didnt so much have
to deal with querulous
Lowry
reporters pressing him
on all fronts. He had to
deal with citizens bristling with anger
over perceived encroachments on their
rights by an overweening government.
The reaction to the seizure of records on
20 office and personal lines of AP staff
is another reminder, if we needed one,
that what the press cares about most is
itself.
The New York Times sniffed at the
Internal Revenue Service scandal. It
didnt even put the initial story on the
front page. But the paper rebuked the
Obama administration for the AP subpoena in an editorial titled Spying on
The Associated Press: The administration has a chilling zeal for investigating leaks and is trying to frighten off
whistleblowers.
It sounds like the Times should go
back and read President Barack Obamas
recent commencement address at Ohio
State University, where he lamented
that the students have been hearing
warnings that government is nothing
more than some separate, sinister entity and that tyranny is always lurking
just around the corner.
Yes, why cant all the journalists
hyped up about the AP subpoena simply
put more trust in the good intentions of
their own government?
Appealing for calm, Carney said the
president believes in an unfettered ability to pursue investigative journalism,
but that there should be balance. The
implicit reaction of journalists was:
Balance? Dont give us any stinkin
balance. Give us our rights.
In this, the reporters exhibited a
healthy impulse toward vigilance about
liberty. The phrase chilling effect has
been bandied about often. A chill comes
not necessarily from what government
is doing to you, but from what it might
do to you. On top of everything else, it is
the principle of the thing — an infringement, or even a potential infringement,
on the constitutional rights of even a
handful of reporters is an affront to all.
There are lots of people who share this
way of thinking about rights and government. Some of them gather every year
at places like CPAC and the National
Rifle Association annual convention.
Scorn was heaped on the NRA for
opposing new gun rules out of the very
same logic that compels reporters to
react so strongly against the AP subpoena. The NRA will not abide an infringement of anyones legitimate right to
bear arms, and it fears what could
come of enhanced state power. Like the
reporters, it casts a jaundiced eye on the
reassurances of government. What they
are to the First Amendment, it is to the
Second.
Journalists should learn from this
moment. Maybe they should stop rolling their eyes when the likes of Texas
Sen. Ted Cruz talk of the Constitution.
Maybe they should credit the skepticism about government of the tea party,
which was right in its early complaints
about the IRS. Maybe, after nearly five
years, they should invest the phrase
adversarial press with true meaning.

Review.

I was reading in the paper where the
citys trying to pass this law where we
cant have any furniture in our yard.
Well, wont they have to remove all
the benches on the rail trail and in
front of the sheriffs office? I would
think they would have to.
My mom, sister and myself went
Wednesday, May 22, 2013, to decorate graves at Scipio Cemetery for
Memorial Day. To our surprise all
three of our graves were stripped
of more than $100 worth of pretties.
My mom buried the love of her life
in 2002, a very wonderful and caring
person, and you know what a shame
it is that we cannot go out and put
things on his grave without knowing
that it will be stolen. Apparently you
didnt know Mr. Nick (name deleted)
very well because youre dern lucky
he didnt reach up and grab your
leg when you walked away with all
that. Well, then theres my two kids,
a 24 year-old buried in 2004 a 20 yearold buried in 2010, who are buried
right above their grandpa Nick (name
deleted). Their graves were stripped
too. That is all we have left of them
besides memories, to go out and put
something on their graves to let them
know we love and miss them very
much and then we have idiots like
you who steal from their graves. Now
that you know this familys feelings
we also want you to know that we had
cameras trained right on the graves.
We know who you are, and we are
giving you this opportunity to please
return what you took. No questions
asked. Please Lord forgive these people for doing this because they need
it. And I promise the good Lord will
take care of you when its your time
because he does not tolerate these
kind of actions. Shame on you.
As I drive around Garnett I dont see
an issue with furniture in peoples
yards that would warrant a law being
passed, I think thats just city hall
trying to flex its muscles. If you want
to clean up the town and make it safe
for tourism, build some decent curbs
to keep the grass and gravel from
spreading into the street and make
the businesses with gravel parking
lots pave them so they dont look so
ratty. If I wanted to live under an anal
retentive neighborhood association
agreement that controls my property
Id move to Johnson County. I wont
pay these extreme city taxes and high
Garnett utilities and then have city
hall tell me I cant have a bench or
chair in my yard or on my porch.
Thank you.
I do believe in shopping at home and
supporting my hometown but come
on. Gas prices are 20 cents higher
than other small towns in the area
I travelled through last week- $3.79
in Pomona & Lyndon, $3.99 Garnett.
Yep, I filled up elsewhere and was
happy to do it.
I wanted to say congratulations to
Sydney Poverlein on the wonderful
job she did at the GES talent show
on Thursday. Never have I heard
such a great job done on The Good
Ship Lollipop, and I could certainly
tell that the crowd agreed by their
applause. Good job Sydney.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, May 28, 2013
Tyson talks about veto
session at Legislature
BY CARYN TYSON
being made are critical and
could impact Kansans for years
to come. It is important that
we have accurate information
and are working from a common set of assumptions. The
previous projections were based
on an average 5% growth for
the state. This was concerning
to me because the legislature
has always used an average of
4% and the number should be
revisited as a result of the tax
bill passed last year. By the end
of the week, it appeared both
chambers have agreed to use
4%.
The House made an offer of a
6% sales tax. The current sales
tax is at 6.3% and is to sunset
to 5.7%. Because of the aggressive income tax package that we
passed last year, the Senate has
taken a position to keep the 6.3%
sales tax and use it to buy down
income tax. The House 6% offer
would require the income tax
cut passed last year to be less
of a cut by decreasing the standard deductions. The legislature
increased standard deductions
to $4,500 for individuals, $9,000
for married filing jointly, and
$9,000 for head of household.
These are considerable tax cuts
and is a step in the direction of
keeping more money in your
pocket. If the Houses offer is
passed, the sales tax would be at
6% while the standard deduction
would be $6,500 for married and
$5,000 for head of household.
The difference between the
Senate and House tax plan on
sales tax is .3% – a difference
of 30 cents for every $100 you
spend. However the difference
on income tax is thousands of
dollars in deductions and income
tax cuts. While the end result
has taken longer than hoped for
this session, its worth the extra
work to come out with a plan
that will dictate the next decade
of fiscal policy in Kansas.

KANSAS SENATE
The legislature began Veto
Session May 8th. Veto Session
is supposed to be when the legislature works on bills that have
been vetoed by the Governor
but instead it has turned into a
second session.
One of the bills passed in Veto
Session that will be signed into
law is HB 2162. The bill strengthens our 2nd Amendment rights
by not allowing taxpayer dollars
to be used to lobby for gun control. The vote was 31 to 6.
HB 2199 was several liquor
bills rolled into one. Last year
state law was changed to allow
liquor stores to give free samples. I voted against this bill
– it was referred to as the mega
liquor bill. It was 11 bills that
were rolled into one bill at the
end of session. Ten of the bills
had never passed either the
House or Senate. The Division
of Alcohol Beverage Control
(ABC) interpreted the law in a
manner that will not allow anything to be added to the samples,
therefore a person would be taking a straight shot of liquor.
The bill we passed this year will
allow ice, water, and other items
to be added to the sample. The
bill also requires the ABC issue
a fine within 90 days of issuing a citation. Currently, ABC
will issue a citation and a business may not receive a fine for
11 months or longer. The bill
passed the Senate on a vote of 39
to 0.
HB 2249 removes the Historic
Preservation limit of 500 feet
for city limits and 1,000 feet for
rural. If you were a property
owner within the defined range
of a Historic Preservation property, you were required to get
permission to make changes
to your property, even though
your property was not in the
program. HB 2249 reduces the
burden of government by allowing property owners the freedom to make changes to their
property when it borders a
Historic Preservation property.

MOORE…
FROM PAGE 1A
Thats a typical response
from Oklahoma residents,
Seymour said. He grew up in
central Kansas, and never saw
a tornado until he moved to
Oklahoma. Every May, residents are plagued with multiple tornado reports and warnings. After a while, its easy
to become complacent and
ignore the warnings. It can be
deadly when a big storm moves
through, as it did last week,
killing at least 24 people.
The Seymours traveled to
Moore to interview for a job
in May 1999 just a week after
a tornado destroyed much of
the city. They wondered at the
time if moving to Oklahoma
was such a good idea, and in 14
years Seymour has seen devastation from three major tornadoes that hit his community.
But after 14 years, they love
living in Moore, he said.
The thing about being here
is the people, he said. Nobody
is whining about FEMA getting money to them because the
people are taking care of them.
People are coming by, giving us
gloves and rakes and water. I
saw a guy going around handing out cash to people.
Its just like Kansas. You
have good people who take care
of people.
Seymour said he isnt focused
on the destruction and tragedy.
Instead, he and his family and
friends are working to help people recover and move forward.
He is grateful for people and
groups like the Garnett Church
of the Nazarene, who have traveled from other states to help.
Local volunteers likely
will wait until the first week
of June to travel to Moore for
relief work. While there, they
plan to stay at the school where
Seymour works.
Its not the first time the
church has sent volunteers for
tornado recover. Between 15
and 20 volunteers traveled to
Joplin, Mo., when a tornado
decimated the town two years
ago. Volunteers took chainsaws
to help people clear trees and
debris, and its likely they will
do the same in Moore once the
area has been cleared by insurance agents and emergency
management investigators.
surviving a dangerous tornado,
however, is to listen to early
warnings, Mersman said.
A NOAA weather radio is
the most reliable weather
awareness warning available,
Mersman said. The weather
radios typically range around
$20 to $100, although local
emergency management and
fire department officials in the
past have secured grants to provide radios at a lower cost. Its
important to change batteries
on a regular basis so the radio
will function in a power outage,
Mersman said.
Locally, Anderson County
Emergency Management offers
the CodeRED Weather Warning
system. The feature is an optin service, which means you
must add your contact information (cell phone, home phone,
email) to receive calls when
severe weather strikes. This
can be done by clicking on the
CodeRED link on the left side of
the home page at www.andersoncountyks.org, or by calling
the Emergency Management
office at (785) 448-6797.
Its important to note that
CodeRED relies on the telephone system to deliver messages, Mermsan said. If something happens to the infrastructure or telephone lines
become clogged, the CodeRED
messages may not be delivered.
Mersman said that is another
reason to have multiple ways
to receive warnings. In addition to NOAA weather radios,
local media outlets disseminate
this information. Sources like
Kansas City and Topeka television stations and radio stations
provide coverage of the local
area.
SHELTERS…
FROM PAGE 1A
Shelters,
FlatSafe
and
FamilySAFE advertise a variety of tornado shelters. Many
offer shelters both above and
below ground, typically built
of steel and able to withstand
high winds and impact. Aboveground units can be anchored
to a concrete floor inside a
garage, or can be built as a
stand-alone shelter. SurviveA-Storm advertises extensive
shelters with multiple rooms,
able to house up to 100 people,
as well as small family units.
While those companies do
not list prices on their websites,
instead offering quotes, other
websites show that a basic tornado shelter can cost anywhere
from about $5,000 to $10,000.
Less expensive options, such as
a fiberglass underground shelter, offered by Tornado Guard,
could cost about $3,000.

1913: Farmhand shoots, kills boss
June 3, 2003
The financially beleaguered
Garnett Church Furniture
Factory will face eviction proceedings from its newly constructed manufacturing plant
within 30 days if it fails to act
to satisfy rent payments and
other liens filed against it by
vendor companies. Garnett City
Commissioners voted Tuesday
night to send the company notice
that it was in default of some
$33,000 in rent payments to the
city and Anderson County, as
well as $1,000 in equipment
payments, and that eviction
proceedings would begin in 30
days if the debts werent satisfied. The action came on the
heels of a $42,000 federal tax
lien filed by the IRS last week
for non-payment of employee
withholding taxes. That action
followed a $97,000 lien filed by
the IRS against the company in
February of this year, again for
non-payment of employee taxes.
City commissioners last week
approved another two-year
operations period for Garnetts
Neighborhood Revitalization
Plan, which gives a 95 percent

or the public, Garnett Foods shut
down its cheese-making operation this week amid days-old
rumors that the plant was closing. The plant employed about 30
full-time and part-time workers.
Traffic was rerouted for several hours on U.S. 169 north
of Colony Wednesday, when a
truck carrying explosives and
blasting caps ran off the road
and could not pull itself back
onto the roadway.
Plans are in process to fix the
weak spot on the Greeley-Parker
road as soon as the weather permits. Apparently, a portion of
the road has settled further than
expected and is starting to create
quite a depression in the pavement.

Nice Nichols was shot and
instantly killed about 9 oclock
this morning by A.B. Moberly,
who fired two shots from a
revolver of small caliber at a
distance of a few feet. One shot
struck the heart and the other
only missed it by an inch, and
either shot would have been fatal
without the other. The shooting took place in the presence
of a number of men who were
employed on the Nichols farm,
putting up alfalfa, at the point
where the stacks were being
built. Moberly had been in Nicks
employ, and was discharged for
smoking about the hay, contrary
to orders. He went from town out
to the Nichols farm this morning to get a balance of $3 due
him. Nick told him the amount
had been garnished and refused
to pay. Moberly threatened with
a five-cylinder revolver. Nick
wrote a check, but by mistake
wrote it for $23. Another check
was written. At this point, trouble commenced. Moberly shot
Nick twice. Nick fell back, crying, My God, boys, he has got
me! and died very quickly.

Food for thought
Many of the people who
had been following Jesus,
upon hearing his teaching,
decided they could not accept
his teaching for it was to difficult. They had turned back
and no longer followed him.
This prompted Jesus to ask
the twelve in John 6:67, You
do not want to leave do you?
In the very next verse Simon
Peter asks a question we all
should ask. Lord to whom
shall we go? You have the
words of eternal life.
How should we answer
that question? First we must
decide is there eternal life?
In one particular parable in
Luke 16:19-31, Jesus speaks
about a certain rich man and
a beggar who he specifically
names as Lazarus. The rich
man was dressed in purple
which represents royalty and
he lived in luxury every day.
The beggar Lazarus laid at
his gate and he longed to eat
the crumbs that fell from his
table. The time came when
the beggar died and was carried to Abrahams side. The
rich man also died and was
buried. From torment he
cried to Abraham as he saw
him far away. But Abraham
replied Son remember that
in your lifetime you received
your good things while
Lazarus received bad things,
but now he is comforted here
and you are in agony. And
besides all this, between us
and you a great chasm has
been fixed so that those who
want to go from here to you
cannot, nor can anyone cross
over from there to us. Here
we see something about each
mans life, death and eternal
existence.
Now we must ask ourselves
to whom shall I go? I cannot
build a case for anyone except
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
Jesus. Prior to the coming
of Christ life was lived under
the law. When Jesus came
a new covenant began and
we entered the age of grace.
At some undetermined time
Christ will come in the air
and take the church out of
the world which we refer to
as the rapture. Following
that will begin an age of judgment.
We as individuals have
no control over our birth or
death. That only leaves us
in control of that span of
time called life. We have two
ways we can choose. The
way of the world or the way
of Jesus. In John 6:60 some
of Jesus followers on hearing
Jesus teachings said, This
is a hard teaching. Who can
accept it?
No one likes hard teaching
or hard lessons. We want ease
and comfort. We want everyones approval. We want our
efforts recognized and our
actions affirmed. In John
13:34, Jesus states. A new
command I give you: Love
one another. As I loved you,
so you must love one another.
By this all men will know
that you are my disciples, if
you love one another. This
statement is the cornerstone
of the age of grace.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 5-28-2013 / Photo Submitted
The MWA [Modern Woodmen of America] kids in Richmond have been planting the flower
boxes at the Richmond Public Library for a few years now. They come in the spring and put
in new soil and plant new flowers in the boxes. This year one of the parents donated a bench
for the front of the library. The kids seemed to enjoy planting the flowers and we love the front
sidewalk looking so nice.
