Crest Lancers set a new school record with 26 wins

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 10-18-2022 / NEXTERA PHOTO
County commissioners from counties targeted for the NextEra Wolf Creek/
Blackberry, Mo., powerline project are trying to determine if their zoning authority can extend to the state-endorsed project.
Multi-county work
session canned after
public shows up
Officials still dont know
if counties can regulate
94-mile long powerline
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
IOLA A meeting of regional county commissioners called to discuss
zoning setbacks for a 94-mile electric transmission line last week fell
into disarray and was canceled after
members of the public showed up to
protest.
Consequently, the issue of whether
or not those counties have authority
to regulate the construction of that
power line by virtue of their own local
zoning laws remains up in the air.
What
Anderson
County
Commissioners earlier described as
a planned work session with commissioners and county staff from
Coffey and Allen counties was to
have addressed options to implement
setback requirements through the
respective county zoning departments
to regulate the placement of transmission lines by NextEra Transmission.
The project, which is granted an
automatic 10-year tax abatement,
is planned to run from Wolf Creek
Nuclear Generating Station across
Coffey, Anderson, Allen, Bourbon and
Crawford counties to a location at
Blackberry, Mo.
But the meeting appeared to lack
leadership or control, and it quickly
descended into a flurry of protests by
about a dozen rural residents aimed
primarily at two attorneys for the
Polsenelli law firm, which represents
NextEra. Anderson County counselor James Campbell eventually called
an early end to the meeting when it
became clear the gathering wouldnt
be conducive to a work session.
NextEra was certified by the
Kansas Corporation Commission in
recent weeks with authorization as a
public utility with regard to the project. Though the KCC has not approved
a formal site plan for the project, a
basic map of the lines route has been
publicized and landowners at the
Monday meeting said NextEra representatives had been meeting with
property owners who would be affected for easement agreements.
When the site plan is approved, the
company will seek those agreements
for a one-time cash payment to those
landowners. Lacking such an agreeSEE SESSION ON PAGE 2
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
COLONY With their wins last
Tuesday against Southeast and Yates
Center, the Crest Lady Lancer volleyball team current sits at 26 wins
on the season with more games still
to play. The 2022 team is now in sole
possession of the most wins in a season in school history.
The previous mark of 24 wins was
set in 1988 when current assistant
coach Tisha Hug was head coach.
That team from 1988 went 24-6.
With a spotty history of season
records from that season to 2012,
which was current head coach
Abigail Hermreck's first year leading the squad, it is hard to tell how
well things went during that 24 year
stretch.
But what we do know that is
in Coach Hermreck's first season,
the Lancers finished a woeful 0-35.
The win totals for the next 5 years
improved but still fell short of the
.500 mark.
Crest won a combined 14 games
from 2013-2015.
In 2016 the program started showing more positive signs finishing
12-21 before dipping back to 8-28 in
2017.
Crest broke even in 2018 with a
n18-18 record but lost a solid senior
class which led to a drop off in 2019 to
just 7 wins.
That 2019 season was the current senior class's freshman year.
Four freshman earned letters that
season. They were Sydney Stephens,
McKenna
Hammond,
Haylee
Beckmon and Brinley McGhee.
As that core of players were sophomores, they quickly used their experience gained to improve to 13-11 in
2020. That season had an abbreviated
schedule due to the COVID pandemic.
In 2021, Allyssa Adams and
Kamryn Luedke were mentioned as
needing to be contributors among
this year's senior class.
Coach Hermreck also points out
Kayla Hermreck, Brooklyn Jones and
Karlee Boots as girls that will help
turn things around.
That 2021 squad went 18-17, including a 9-2 record in league.
Now as that core group from 2019
are seniors, the wins are starting to
come in bunches. The Lancers are
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 10-18-2022 / KEVIN GAINES
Karlee Boots goes for the spike as teammates wait for a possible block. Crest
knocked off Southeast last Tuesdays action.
led by Hermreck, a junior that was
all-league last year and all-state honorable mention.
This record comes even with a
pair of losses due to injury as both
Stephens and McGee have not been
able to play this year. They both
have lettered since their freshman
seasons.
Despite the setback, Crest opened
the season winning their first 4
matches and 7 of their first 8. Their
best stretch was from September
13-October 4 when they went on to
win 13 of 14 games.
Coach Hermeck said when asked
if she saw a season like this on the
horizon, I knew with everyone I
had returning that the potential was
there to come up with more wins.
Team chemistry is a huge part
of their success. I could see confidence and determination building,
Hermreck said.
Hermreck acknowledged that she
is in new exciting territory with this
group. Success is often a learned
behavior but she is hoping that she
can help the team stick to the team
goals they set before the season began
and not let the pressure get to them.
This team has all the tools in
place to do well in Sub-State this
coming Saturday, the mental part of
the game is the trickiest, Hermreck
concluded.
Music event highlights fall fun
at Garnetts Pumpkin Patch
GARNETT The First Annual Great
Pumpkin Bash is coming to Garnett
October 22, located just south of the
south lake at 1662 S. Maple (where
TLC Auto Salvage used to be), this
event is sure to be a good time featuring Travis Marvin with special guest
Clevermax. Plus food trucks like KC
Deyas, The Snack Shack and Sweet
Kernels Popcorn, wine slushies and
samples from Blue Dog Winery, beer
trucks, corn hole, and of course, pumpkins. Gates open at 12.30 p.m. show
starts at 1 p.m. and will go until 8 p.m.
We wanted to do something fun
that the community near and far could
come over and enjoy. What better than
a big concert? Josh Mundell, owner
of Mundells Pumpkin Patch says.
Mundell said the event merges two
ideas: music and fall season fun.
My motivations for the event are
pretty simple, I want to give people the
opportunity to experience something
fun and different this
fall. Travis Marvin
is an excellent performer and I know
he and Clevermax
will make this
event entertaining
and memoriable.
Mundell says, I just
Marvin wanted to bring people to Garnett and
put Garnett on the
map.
Mundells Pumpkin Patch was started this year and located at the same
place The Bash will be taking place,
1662 S. Maple Street. Its a family affair
with his mother Jenelle Klehammer
managing the patch and her husband
Chris, a horticulturalist, growing and
maintaining all the pumpkins in so
many different shapes, sizes, colors,
and textures. The pumpkin patch is
full of fun activities for people of all
ages with an inflatable fun zone, hayrack rides, corn maze, tire park, corn
box, five instagramable photo opportunities, corn hole, and other games.
Its free to enter the patch, pumpkins
are sold by the size and shape starting at $1. Inflatables are $5 for 8 and
under, $10 for 9 and up and include
unlmited hayrack rides. Adult unlimited hayrack rides are $5.

Amendment would keep sheriff as elected office
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
TOPEKA Voters in Anderson
County and across Kansas will
decide an amendment to the Kansas
Constitution in the November election
that if successful will make electing
the county sheriff at least in counties
that elected that office as of January of
this year a constitutional given.
The amendment passed the Kansas
House and Senate with a majority
vote in order to be placed on the ballot, and is aimed at halting what may
eventually be efforts in some counties to cease electing their sheriff and
instead have county commissioners
appoint the position, similar to the
way most cities in Kansas hire a city
police chief.
I dont know that its going to
be a thing for most counties, said
Anderson County Sheriff Vern
Valentine. Most places probably go
with it as a tradition to have a sheriff
thats elected. But thats not everywhere.
A yes vote would preserve the

ment, the KCC certification
gives NextEra the authority to
use eminent domain to gain
access to the property, which
involves a district court action
to determine the value of the
property and forces the landowner into a paid transaction
with the company.
NextEras attorneys sparked
a response from the landowners
present when they told those in
attendance that counties dont
have authority to affect the
project through their local zoning regulations, and that those
matters will be determined by
the KCCs line siting process
via public meeting which will
be held as part of the process.
Rustin Kimmel, an attorney for
Rochelle Smarts family whose
property near Westphalia will
be affected, took issue with that
assertion.
When they say the county commissioners dont have
authority to provide regulations, I think KSA 660-1182,
does provide for that regulation, Kimmel said. Theres
a Kansas Supreme Court case
that allows that to happen.
Campbell, the attorney representing Anderson County,
said the working group had
met a couple of times and that
last weeks meeting was not
intended to be a public hearing.
None of the counties were represented by a quorum of their
commissions, so open meetings
laws didnt apply.
Campbell said he invited
attorneys representing NextEra
when the group learned Smart
planned to attend with her
counsel. He said word apparently spread via the grapevine
about the meeting and resulted in the groups attendance.
Campbell explained to those in
attendance what the aim of the
meeting was, and then ended
the meeting shortly afterwards,
saying the group was not going
to be able to pursue its objective with interjections from
members of the public.
I just decided it was best to
pull the plug, Campbell said in
a followup interview with the
Review. He said determining
the counties authority as to
any degree of regulation was
still an unknown.
I have no formal opinion
on that yet, Campbell said. I
think theres more gray area
there than we know so far.

What does a pastor want Who should we follow?
for his congregation?
What does a Pastor want
for His congregation? Paul
revealed this to us in his letter
to the Colossians (Col 1:1-14) by
describing what he prays for
them.
First, he thanks God for
their faith in Jesus and their
love for one another. Faith and
love are tied together as Jesus
points out in John 13:35, that
our faith in him will be proven
to the world by our love for
one another. Secondly, Paul
asks God to fill these believers complete knowledge of His
will and Spiritual wisdom and
understanding. It may seem
impossible to know Gods will,
which is why Paul couples this
with Spiritual wisdom and
understanding. We are told in
1 Tim 2:2-4 God wants everyone
to be saved and have eternal
life and in John 17:3 that the
way to eternal life is to know
Jesus. Paul is praying that
Christians will not just know
of Jesus, but to know Him so
personally that He lives in you.
When Christ lives in you, His
Spirit then provides spiritual
wisdom and understanding
necessary to guide you to car-
ryout Gods will in your life,
just as He did through Jesus
life on earth. As Paul puts it
in Colossians 1:10, being filled
with complete knowledge and
spiritual wisdom and understanding is what enables you
to live a life that honors and
pleases God. But even with
knowledge and wisdom, Paul
understands that living this
kind of life is hard so he prays
for God to give them strength to
endure and be patient as they
work out the process of sanctification. Finally, he prays
that they would be filled with
joy and thankfulness for their
redemption by the forgiveness
of their sins through Christ.
A Pastors biggest influence
for your spiritual wellbeing is
his prayers for you. You can
also make an impact in others
lives by praying that they place
their faith in Jesus, love others,
know and understand Gods
purpose in their life, and know
that they be strengthened to
endure the struggles and trials
life presents while maintaining
their joy and thankfulness for
what God has done for them.
In Acts 5 we read the account
of the apostles appearing before
the Sanhedrin after they are
arrested for teaching the people. They had been warned
not to teach in the name of
Jesus Christ. Peter and the
rest of the apostles replied
to the men. We must obey
God rather than man. We
cannot help but wonder what
inspired the apostles in the face
of imprisonment and persecution to speak so boldly about
Christ. Certainly the apostles
had seen everything that Jesus
did as well as all that happened
to him. But Jesus was not with
them now.
I believe we get a key verse
from Jesus in John 5:19 that
must have made an impression on the apostles when he
says. I tell you the truth, the
Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he
sees the Father doing, because
whatever the Father does the
Son also does. This is just
one example of the praise, reverence and admiration Jesus
displayed for the Father. The
apostles witnessed how obedient and submissive Jesus was
to the Father. He showed the
apostles they must learn how
to trust the Father instead of
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
themselves.
Paul says in Romans 5:19,
For just as through the disobedience of the one man (Adam)
the many were made sinners,
so also through the obedience
of the one man, (Jesus) the
many will be made righteous.
Jesus obedience and submission to the Father was the
direct result of his love for the
Father. The degree of love we
have for Jesus is in direct proportion to the extent we have
separated ourselves from the
distractions this world affords
us. Where does Jesus fit into
our life? I believe a good rule of
thumb would be we should follow the apostles example. We
must obey God rather than
men.

Ministry on the Holiness of God.

OPINION
Osage County boots wind farm tax dodge
The ugly, tax dodging, overpriced lie that is
wind power ran headlong into a brick wall of
common sense and community resolve at an
Osage County Planning Commission meeting
recently, when the commission voted unanimously to ban construction of wind turbines in
Osage County.
The recommendation from the planning commission now goes to a meeting of the county
commissioners on October 24. Those commissioners should embrace that recommendation as
a statement against tax-dodging Big Government
and in favor of logical, dependable electrical production that actually works.
The deceit inherent in wind turbine field
proposals is even thicker than the rainbows
and butterflies names with which developers
christen these earth-scarring disasters. The
Auburn Harvest project sounds more like a
new pumpkin spice latte from Starbucks than it
does a massive industrial expanse of 56 gigantic
spinning monoliths blighting thousands and
thousands of acres of Kansas scenery. But the
only harvesting being done is the picking clean
of the taxpayers the whole she-bang powered as much by costs in Joe Bidens Inflation
Reduction Act as by Kansas winds.
Like the rest of Joe Bidens governmental
genius to date, the Inflation Reduction Acts
massive spending generates more inflation rather than curtailing it, and in the context of wind
power restores a 100 percent production tax
credit (PTC) tax dodge to new wind power projects after those phased down tax credits were to
have expired altogether for projects built after
2021.This full realization of tax credits has driven hundreds of wind power projects across the
country back into primary development after
declining federal tax credits tarnished their
luster among developers hungry to dodge their
taxes while you pay your full load and theirs.
Of course all of this works to fulfill one of the
Radical Lefts two primary goals: the destruction of fossil fuel energy production in the
United States. (The other goal is the promotion
of socialism and cultural shift under the guise
of diversity, equity and inclusion, but thats a
topic for another day.)
To pursue goal number one and make the
development of turbine fields even more enticing, the IRA allows for the first time the opportunity to sell those PTCs to a third party for cash.
So now, a turbine field owner can either dodge
his initial taxes or, if his or his parent company
doesnt need the tax relief itself, sell those tax
credits to some other individual or corporation
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
so they can dodge their taxes. The ruse is a simple one you poor working fops out there with
a home mortgage and a family pay the taxes,
while the hot shots pushing wind farms on the
countryside or those who can cut a deal with
them get out of paying their own.
Auburn Harvests website touts an Easter
Basket of goodies for Osage County that they
term economic development, even though wind
farms famously pay zero property taxes in
Kansas a gift from state legislators who became
enamored with them years ago at the expense,
again, of local taxpayers. To their credit, members of the Osage County Planning Commission
compared those promises against the costs of
the potential health risks, the overall threat Big
Wind poses to U.S. energy security and the raw,
irredeemable devastation turbine fields bring to
the natural beauty of the landscape and flatly
said no.
Massively expensive, government subsidy
dependent, operationally challenged and only
effective half the time the perfect Joe Biden
project.
Because many counties in Kansas have never
adopted rural zoning, theyre sitting ducks for
turbine field developers who move in and gain
a foothold before the public can respond in
protest. Every county in every rural area that
doesnt have a zoning plan should start the ball
rolling to adopt one ASAP.
Osage County had the foresight to see the
need for that authority. Charged with protecting
the populace and the countryside from unscrupulous developers, its planning board has done
its job. Hopefully county commissioners there
will adopt their planning commissions recommendation and have the good judgment to tell
Auburn Harvest no. ###

Election integrity on the line in 2022
Remember the hubbub in Georgia when
Major League Baseball pulled the All Star
Game from Atlanta because of the changes to
the voting laws?
For the record, Ive yet to watch a Major
League game since that move, and I will
not visit an MLB Web site or even the MLB
section of any other Web site despite being a
lifelong Chicago Cubs fan.
But those legal changes have not resulted in
lower voter turnout.
Quite the opposite.
According to the Georgia Secretary of
States Web site, Georgia had 326,351 early
in-person voters in 2020.
In 2022, after the new laws were in effect,
Georgias early in-person voters ballooned to
795,567, or more than twice as many.
Similar changes have taken place in other
states, particularly states that had questions
during the 2020 presidential election.
Wisconsins Supreme Court ruled that
drop boxes are not legal while Pennsylvanias
Supreme Court said they could be used.
Arizona has had revisions to their rules as
well.
All in all, the 2022 midterm election will
give us a glimpse at how these states conduct
their elections.
Recently, a Pennsylvania case sent a man

to jail who was working with the Democratic
Party to stuff ballot boxes.
Michael Ozzie Myers, 79, will serve a
30-month sentence, and he is a former U.S.
Representative.
But it seems many of the last-second changes that were part of the 2020 election and
attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic have
been curtailed.
No, Im not mentioning these as part of
a conspiracy about the last election. People
either trust the results, dont believe the
results or believe there were some shady
events but can never know with any certainty
if they affected the outcome.
Place me in the latter.
Like the results or not, we have to live with
the numbers that are certified by the county
elections boards and the state officials.
Cases can be made in court, but once that
process is over, the election is over.
Still, when we have questions about the
voting process, the entire democratic system
is at stake.
Stacey Abrams has yet to concede her loss
in the last Georgia gubernatorial election, and
even after the numbers for early voting doubled and more and more people are voting in
the Peach State, she claims that increased voting has nothing to do with voter suppression.
After being presented with the massive
increase in Georgians turning out to vote after
the new laws were in effect, failed governor
candidate Abrams said, Voter suppression is
not about turnout. Its about the barriers and
obstacles to access. And thats one of the other
conflations I think its very important that we
distinguish. Voter suppression exists when
there is difficulty registering, staying on the
rolls, being able to cast a ballot and having
that ballot counted.

High-speed rail: The true progressive fantasy
California progressives tried to build a
European-style high-speed rail network and
alienated the French in the process.
A big New York Times piece on the rail
project reports that the French, who wanted
to work with California, decided the state
was simply too dysfunctional and departed to
help complete a high-speed line in Morocco
instead.
The ongoing unraveling of Californias rail
plan is an object lesson in how infrastructure
as eschatology is a bad idea. If transportation
is conceived as a way to save the planet and
fulfill a deep-seated, quasi-religious fixation
rather than a means to move people around
more efficiently, it is bound to fail. Throw on
top Californias politicized decision-making
and regulatory and legal obstacles to building,
and its a formula for a boondoggle for the
ages.
No matter how high California has estimated the cost of the project, it hasnt been
enough, even as almost nothing has been
built. It started out at $33 billion in 2008. Now,
its $113 billion, with no one knowing where
the funding is going to come from.
Not that the California experience will
diminish the progressive ardor for high-speed
rail. As far as its enthusiasts are concerned,
it is like socialism — never failed, just never
truly tried.
President Barack Obama proposed an
8,600-mile high-speed rail system, and
Transportation secretary Pete Buttigieg
wants the U.S. to be the global leader in
high-speed rail. Progressives think of bullet
trains like windmills on rails, a symbol of
enlightenment and modernity, a way to free
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
ourselves from the selfish, small-minded tyranny of the automobile and adopt a sleeker,
greener, more virtuous future.
Then, the wheel meets the rail. In
California, it might have sounded appealing
to build a high-speed rail link between Los
Angeles and San Francisco — if you abstracted
the project from all the topographical and
other difficulties. For political reasons, a less
direct, less economical route between the cities was selected. And the decision was made to
start building between the two megalopolises,
in the Central Valley, creating the possibility
that California may end up with a bullet train
to and from nowhere.
Of course, we already have cheap, highspeed transport between population centers.
It is called air travel.
As Randal OToole of the Cato Institute
points out, planes cruise at roughly 500 miles
per hour. The Amtrak Acela, on the other
hand, has a top speed of 150 miles per hour.
Yes, airplanes need infrastructure, but not
expensive, complex new infrastructure all
along their routes.
OToole notes that Japans high-speed
trains seemed like the future in the 1960s,
when air travel was more expensive than
rail. Also, Japans high-speed trains had a
ready-made customer base in the substantial
proportion of the countrys population that
already traveled by train.
In the U.S. today, in contrast, the average
cost per mile of traveling by air is cheaper
than traveling by rail, and a minuscule 0.1%
of all passenger travel is via Amtrak.
If we built the Interstate Highway System,
why cant we build a comparable high-speed
network? As OToole observes, the highway
system basically paid for itself and accounts
for a substantial 20% of the countrys passenger-miles and a roughly comparable proportion of freight ton-miles.
High-speed rail could never be a match.
Even if you put aside the endemic cost overruns, the inevitable construction delays, and
the considerable maintainable costs, it can
only carry passengers, not freight.
While progressives swoon over high-speed
rail as the shiny future, some other genuinely
futuristic technology is likely to emerge. If the
age of self-driving cars ever arrives, people
will be able to experience a car more like a
personal train, except unlimited by rails.
California hasnt created a railroad to the
future but a warning to the rest of the country
to avoid its delusion and folly.
Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.
Just to set the record straight on the electrical
billing issue that one of your Phone Forum
commenters had an issue with, the company has
always paid its electric bills on time. There were
two meters on the building; one was being read,
one wasnt. Theres no way the company could
go out and read the meter themselves. They
were paying the bill they got in the mail. Its the
citys fault, pure and simple.
Halloween decorated yards with re-elect Kelly
and Sharice Davids signs in them. Scariest yard
award for sure.
Its sad that we cant have our own opinions
on topics today without someone bashing you
about it. If you dont approve of a certain book
that over half of us had no clue what it was
about until your brought attention to it. Dont
worry about who Im voting for and dont get
mad at me about it because I dont agree with
you. Thank you.
Dont be fooled. A yes vote on the legislative
oversight amendment takes the voting rights of
Kansas away. It would put all the power in the
hands of the Kansas Legislature, who seldom
represent the majority of Kansans. Think long
and hard before you give up your right to vote
on many issues in the future. Vote no.

Goppert State Service
Bank (formerly known as
Garnett State Savings Bank)
through their connection to
the Goppert Foundation has
agreed to underwrite the
cost of air conditioning the
Gym and Weight Rooms at
the Recreation Center. After
receiving bids to install air
conditioning, the City was
contacted by the president of
the bank in regard to funding
the installation. The Goppert
Foundation has been instrumental financially in the renovation of the former Kansas
National Guard Building after
the transfer of the ownership to
the city. The Recreation Center
has seen increased use since it
was opened to the public in 2010,
however attendance appeared
to decline during the summer
months.

charges in the case. Anderson
County Sheriff Darin Dalsing
points out that the investigation
had been conducted and was
awaiting the Kansas Highway
Patrols reconstruction report,
and following that report, he
could determine what, if any,
charges could be filed. An
increase in sales tax vote coming next month to fund a new
county jail could impact local
businesses and be far less painless as it has been portrayed.
The increase could impact
larger purchases like vehicles
says Ray Beckman of Beckman
Motors. Beckman Motors had
the largest collection of sales tax
in Anderson County, accounting for more than $210,000 last
year and a full third of the countys entire collection. This new
tax would likely keep shoppers
away from local business and
force them to travel to neighboring counties to make these purchase to avoid paying the higher
sales tax cost. An Ethanol Rally
will be held as an opportunity to
buy E-10 unleaded fuel, which
is 10% ethanol and 90% unlead-
ed fuel at the Caseys General
Store in Garnett. During this
rally, customers will be able to
purchase the full at a discount
of $0.10 per gallon. This will
be held from 3-5:30 PM and is
co-sponsored by Anderson
County Farm Bureau, Kansas
Corn Growers Association and
the Kansas Grain Sorghum
Producers Association.
30 years ago….
Violent crime is on the rise
in Anderson County. The county witnessed a 23% increase in
all crime reports for the first
half of 1992 as compared to
the same time period in 1991.
Though the increase in type
1 crimes increased dramatically, several of those crimes
can be tied to three different
attempts to execute the crime
on a single party according to
Sheriff Fred Litsch. The overall 195% increase was the largest increase recorded in the
Southeast Kansas area. These
high level type 1 crimes, or violent crimes include murder,
rape, robbery and aggravated assault. Franklin County
likewise saw a 54% increase in
the number of crimes reported
during the first half of 1992,
jumping from 210 incidents to
324 incidents. Garnett City officials report that the city lost its
anti-trust case against Williams
Natural Gas and would now
be liable for some $150,000 in
fees for the case. City Attorney
Terry Solander commented,
We did incur substantial fees
but we saved our customers
literally hundreds of thousands
of dollars in gas costs. He concluded that the company would
likely deny the suit brought by
Garnett and seven other cities
had any impact on its decision
to reopen its gas line, which
is the only conventional gas
transportation facility serving
Garnett and the other communities involved in the case.
The cities involved sued on

LOCAL
ACHS Cheerleaders won many awards at UCA Cheer Camp Shane birth announcment
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 10-18-2022 / SUBMITTED
Morgan Sumner (left) and Bree Welsh (right) were awarded with
the Pin It Forward award. This award is given to cheerleaders that
the UCA Staff, and other cheerleaders at the camp believe show
leadership and a positive attitude throughout the camp.
The Anderson County High
School Cheerleaders attended
the UCA Cheer Camp in Topeka
this summer. These AC ladies
did a great job at camp. All of
the girls stepped up, worked
hard, and came back from
camp with many awards, trophies, and a camp experience
they will always remember.
These ladies did a wonderful job at camp coming home
with all blues on all evaluations, Cheer Coach Trish
Wittman stated.
They received 2nd place
in Cheer/Sideline, 2nd place
in Camp dance, 3rd place in
the camp championships,
two pin it forward recipients,
spirit stick each day, and the
Respect award, an award the
UCA Staff has not given before,
but our AC ladies were chosen
to be the first to receive this
award.
Wittman added, As a coach
I was most proud of the comments by the UCA staff and
other coaches. I was constant-

Wittman added it didnt matter whether it was cheering on

Wittman concluded, These

Richmond UWF learns about Japan
A former Garnett resident
and Garnett High School grad
(74), Diann (Cox) Hough, of
Paola, told about her experiences visiting Japan at a recent
Richmond United Women in
Faith meeting.
This group is the new name
of United Methodist Women.
Diann is the daughter of
Larry Cox of rural Richmond
and the late Betty Strain.
She has visited her son, Reid
Johnson, and his family, who
live near Nagoya six times and
has traveled around the country in all directions.
Reid, who graduated from
the University of Central
Missouri, went to Japan to
teach and has remained there.
He married Tina and they have
two daughters, Elena 4 1/2 and
Selina 3.
Almost everyone in Japan
speaks both Japanese and
English, including these young
girls. English is taught at all
grade levels in the school curriculum, not as an elective.
Reid teaches English in a
middle school and tutors at the
local YMCA, said Diann. He
became interested in Japan at a
young age, traveled there when
in college, and made a decision to live there, explained his
mother.
Diann made her most recent
visit to Japan in August. Her
husband, Dr. John Hough, has
accompanied her twice. Shes
been there in the spring when
the cherry blossoms are in
bloom and in the fall when
the leaves are changing. The
Japanese decorate and have
festivals for the seasons and
holidays, as we do, but none
are based on religious events,
as our Christmas and Easter,
since they are primarily
Buddhism religion.
At the UWF program, Diann
wore a half Kimono which is
shorter and has no long sash
(see picture) but she had others displayed, as well as two
tables filled with beautiful and
meaningful ornaments, food
products, fans, origami, bunny
rabbits and butterflies of all
kinds, and much more.
With Reid, and sometimes
his family, she has visited
some of the other major cities
as Tokyo, Hiroshima, Nara,
Kyoto, and Osaka, as well as
many smaller places. Shes
been to numerous historic
sites which the Japanese call
castles, some of which have
been rebuilt after being damaged in World War II.
Shopping is not a problem,
especially with American
stores as Costco, 7-11, KFC,
McDonalds, plus IKEA, and
others mixed with Japanese
stores.
Meals at the Johnson home
are a combination of Japanese
and American, similar to how
the two languages are blended.
There is a wide range of restaurants to choose from, including choices of traditional or
American, plus restaurants
which feature food from other
countries. At almost all places of employment, men wear

Douglas and Katelin Shane
are ecstatic to announce the
birth of their son, Walter
Douglas Shane.
Walter was born at 5:15 P.M.
on Thursday, August 15, 2022,
at Advent Health in Merriam,
KS. He weighed 7 pounds, 5
ounces and measured 19 3/4
inches in length.
Walter has three siblings,
Warren, age 5, Hattie, age 3,
and Iris, age 2. The maternal
grandparents are Scott and
Terri Cooper of Garnett, KS.
The paternal grandparents are
Scott and Beverly Shane of
Louisburg, KS.
The
great-grandparents
are Jimmy Cooper of Garnett,
KS, Patricia Keairnes of
Independence, MO, and Janet

Diann and John love to travel and have been to England,
Scotland, Ireland, Australia,

an excuse for last-second extensions of legal deadlines and

These midterm elections
will tell us if polls really matter. If the results are tight as
polls indicate, they may have
credibility. If not but historic norms carry the day, trust
remains. If the polls are wrong
and historic norms are thrown
out the window, large sections
of America may lose faith in

Tracy Smith.
The worship
service starts at 11 am but there
is coffee in Fellowship Hall at
10:30 a.m. All are welcome.
After a long career in education, Tracy retired from the
Uniontown school district in
2015 and before long became
a licensed local pastor of the
United Methodist Church. He
now serves Bronson, Moran
and Mildred UM Churches
and this year was called back
for a one year only stint as
Uniontown High School principal when the position couldnt
be filled.
He also still officiates at
some athletic evens and is the
head referee at certain state
track meets.
Smiths roots are deep in
the Richmond community. His
parents were Dick and Joyce
Smith who everyone knew
lived in the big house on main
street. His grandparents were
Lola and French Booher and
Virgil and Mary Smith. All
six are now deceased, but all
helped Tracy develop a sense of
community and serving.
He is a 1975 graduate of
Central Heights High School
and then graduated from
Ottawa University. His journey in education began as an
art teacher but he soon moved
to being an administrator. He
and his wife, Teresa, live on the
farm established by the Booher
family in 1910.
They enjoy having eight
grandchildren and keeping a
busy schedule.

and suppression are not related, lets look at what Abrams
says leads to voter suppression.
Its about the barriers and
obstacles to access.
Is your signature a barrier? Abrams says it is. Is limiting unmanned and unguarded
drop boxes a barrier to access?
Abrams says it is.
Once you set the standard
that suppression is any and
every rule and regulation for
voting, you can claim suppression for anything. Having to
register is a barrier. Having to
be a certain age is a barrier.
Lets look at what barriers
do. Perhaps on a dangerous
highway when a guard rail is
placed by a curve with a steep
drop-off, that guard rail is a
barrier. Abrams would say that
it suppresses drivers.
And she isnt wrong. But we
all want that barrier nonetheless.
Voter suppression exists
when there is difficulty registering, staying on the rolls,
being able to cast a ballot and
having that ballot counted.
Requiring a person to provide identification when registering would be voter suppression to Abrams. If you miss
two national elections, and
nine years later your name is
removed from the voter rolls,
that would be voter suppression to Abrams.
If you failed to register by
the deadline and show up on
election day to vote and want
your vote counted, and it isnt
because you are not registered
to vote, that would be suppression to Abrams.
All of those are correct. They
all prevent a vote from being
cast.
But they also protect the
integrity of the election. They
make sure that voters who followed the rules are counted,
and they are very low bars.
But any bar is too much for
Abrams.
Im sure she already has a
speech ready to be delivered
about how voter suppression
kept her from becoming the
governor of Georgia. Again.
Donald Trumps accusations
about the last election were
damaging to our trust in the
system. But he also brought
legitimate concerns, and states
have made changes.
But Abrams and other
Democrats have made their
own claims about unfair elections from their point of view.
We have to have a set of
elections in each of the 50 states
that can be trusted by the people of that state. While I do not
like the rules in Pennsylvania,
I am powerless to change them.
And thats the way it should be.
I certainly dont want
Pennsylvanians or Californians
trying to dictate Kansas elections.
Abrams made her case in
court, and she lost. Trump
made his case in court, and he
lost.
New laws have been enact-

SHERIFF..
FROM PAGE 1
election of the office of sheriff in every county that previously elected its sheriff as
of January which effectively
means every county with the
exception of Riley County
which partners with the City of
Manhattan for a unified city/
county law enforcement unit
whose head is hired, not elected.
Similar rumblings had arisen in Johnson County over
the past year as sheriff Calvin
Hayden raised questions
about the security of Johnson
Countys elections, generating
static with both the Johnson
County Attorneys office and
drawing the attention of the
American Civil Liberties
Union. His recommendations for stricter security and
increased monitoring of ballot
boxes and their transportation
has led to rumors Johnson
County leadership might try
to change the countys system
of electing the sheriff to a hired
post that would give them more
control.
Elected sheriffs in Kansas
however have been a legacy to
separation of local powers in
law enforcement and prosecution dating back to the original
Kansas Territorial Statutes.
The idea is that being publicly
elected and answering directly
to the electorate makes sheriffs
more unbiased and even-handed in enforcing the law.
If you dont have elected
sheriffs, you dont have anybody in between the people
who make the laws and the
people themselves who are
there to protect their constitutional rights, Valentine said.

City of Garnett Brush only Hyatt Club met October 4th
Clean-Up Week, Oct. 24-28
The City of Garnett will hold
a free of charge brush only
pick-up service for all City of
Garnett refuse customers the
week of October 24-28, 2022.
Brush to be accepted includes
tree limbs, yard and garden
debris only. No refuse, trash
or household items will be
allowed to be mixed in with
brush. If such items are bagged
or piled together with brush,
then all contents provided for
pick-up will not be removed.
The City will dispose of the
brush at the city-owned burn
site specifically for tree limbs,
yard and garden debris.
Brush is to be piled near the
alley or curbside near where
weekly trash is picked up. City
crews will begin on Monday,
October 24th on the north side
of the city, working their way
south until the entire town has
been covered. They will not
return to an area once they
have been by. Please have your
brush only items ready for pick
up as early as possible (by 6:00
a.m.).
Please Note:
All brush, tree limbs and
garden waste will be picked up
free of charge during BRUSH
ONLY CLEAN-UP WEEK.
If these items are set out for
removal during Fall CleanUp Week, they will NOT be
picked up. If resident requests
these a brush pick up the end of
the month or a special pickup,
a fee will be charged. So please,
take the free opportunity provided through the BRUSH
ONLY CLEAN-UP WEEK,
October 24-28, 2022.
City of Garnett Fall CleanUp Week, Oct. 31-Nov. 4
The
Garnett
City
Commission has designated
October 31 through November
4, 2022 as Fall Clean-Up Week for
residential areas only. The City
of Garnett has not had a CleanUp Week since September of
2018.
The City-Wide Clean-Up
Week allows city crews to pick
up items left curbside, or alley,
to dispose of at the county landfill at no charge to city refuse
customers who participate by
placing their unwanted items
out for city crews to pick up.
This annual clean-up program
was established back in October
of 1969. The annual, week-long
event had become so popular
with residents that a bi-annual
program was offered both in
the spring and fall to City of
Garnett residential refuse customers until 2019.
In the past, the City of
Garnett was not charged by
Anderson County for disposal
of Clean-Up Week items taken
to the County Landfill. And
likewise, Anderson County has
allowed for a Free Dump Week
to give all Anderson County
residents the opportunity to
discard unwanted items at the
landfill at no charge.
Note the following changes
At this time, there will
not be a Free Dump Week for
Garnett/Anderson County residents. Anyone taking items to
the landfill for disposal will be
charged a fee.
The City of Garnett (municipality) will be charged by
Anderson County for dumping
fees for items picked up during
Clean-Up Week, just like any
other week. For this year (2022),
this cost will not be passed on to
our refuse customers.
During City-Wide Clean-Up
Week, October 31 through
November 4, city crews will
start on the north side of town
and proceed south until the
entire town has been covered.
CITY CREWS WILL NOT GO
BACK once they have been
through. Please be ready!

Mary Ann Umbarger hosted
Hyatt Club on October 4, 2022
for a noon potluck meal at her
home in rural Garnett.
Eight Hyatt club members
and one guest, Hilda Lankards
daughter, Janet Stocks, attended.
Members enjoyed a fun roll
call telling of things that are no
longer being used in our lives
in day to day living. Examples
were things that have now been
replaced by electronics and
many household items that
are now replaced by something
else.
Each member received
small, colorful paper pump-
kins at their places at the table.
Each pumpkin had an interesting, fun saying written on
it. By receiving the special
pumpkin, Becky King won the
hostess gift, a fall themed placemat and tea towels.
Angela McSpadden was the
winner of the mystery gift, a
jar of assorted kinds of candy.
She came closest in guessing
the number of pieces of candy
in the jar.
Receiving October birthday gifts from their mystery
pals were Hilda Lankard and
Shirley Benjamin.
Kathryn Allen and Sandra
Hamilton will host the
November Hyatt club meeting.
Members will be notified of
details.
Each member and guest
received a clever pumpkin
made out of jar lids painted

Vikings do well at league, will host regionals
OSAGE CITY The always
tough Flint Hills League meet
was exactly that again this year
as it is full of great runners and
teams.
Although this is the last
time we will see many of our
league competitors this season,
its always incredibly helpful
to be put to this level of a test
the week before the Regional
meet, Coach Troy Prosser stated.
Emma Cubit and Melaney
Chrisjohn both improved from
recent weeks to finish in the
top 10 as well as many of their
teammates to help take 3rd
place in the team standings on
the girl's side.
Having only run as a varsity group this one time is
pretty impressive to see them
that high in the standings in a
league stacked with standout
runners, Prosser said.
The boys, despite several
injuries and complications
this season, still put together a strong enough effort led
by Cody Hammond, Connor
Burkdoll
and
Christian
McCord to become the League
Runner-up.
Hammonds run was a personal record and he was followed up by some tough running and a string of highly competitive teammates in Aydan
(Dunbar), Bryan (Sommer),
Aidan (Howland) and Nick
(Schultze).
With a longer week to fine
tune and heal up, the good news
is that hosting the Regional
meet will give our fans an even
better opportunity to come out
and show their support for

provide by law for the revocation or suspension of any such rule and
regulation, or any portion thereof, upon a vote of a majority of the
members then elected or appointed and qualified in each house.
Sec. 2. The following statement shall be printed on the ballot with
the amendment as a whole:
Explanatory statement. The purpose of this amendment is to provide
the legislature with oversight of state executive branch agencies
and officials by providing the legislature authority to establish
procedures to revoke or suspend rules and regulations.
A vote for this proposition would allow the legislature to establish
procedures to revoke or suspend rules and regulations that are
adopted by state executive branch agencies and officials that have
the force and effect of law.
A vote against this proposition would allow state executive branch
agencies and officials to continue adopting rules and regulations that
have the force and effect of law without any opportunity for the
legislature to directly revoke or suspend such rules and regulations.
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 the general election in the year
2022, unless a special election is called at a sooner date by concurrent
resolution of the legislature, in which case it shall be submitted to the
electors of the state at the special election.

Lancers volleyball close Bulldogs finish 2nd
regular season with a loss at AC Invitational
COLONY Despite a record
breaking season, the Crest
Lancers (26-7) closed their regular season with a disappointing
loss to Southern Coffey County
(25-7, 25-20, 25-17). SCC closed
out their regular season with
an impressive 28-7 record themselves.
We came out playing tight
and could not get our offense
going. Passing was not going
well. SCC was composed and
on the attack, Coach Abigail
Hermreck stated regarding the
overwhelming loss in set 1.
The Lady Lancers settled in
and played more relaxed in the
second and third sets.
Our passing was still a little
off and made it tricky for our
setters to get the sets where
they needed to be. I was proud
of how the girls pulled together
and competed. A win would
have obviously been nice, but
it was an excellent opportunity
for us to compete and continue to prepare for Sub-State,
Hermreck added.
Crest will spend the week
preparing for Sub-State competition this coming Saturday
at Madison. Crest will be the
top-seeded team. Other top contenders appear to be Marmaton
Valley (20-12) and Olpe (21-15)
and Marais Des Cygnes Valley
(14-11).
GARNETT Friday was a busy
day for the ACHS girl's volleyball squad as they hosted

Oskaloosa (25-8, 25-19) and finished off pool play perfect with
a 3 set win over Labette County
(25-13, 26-28, 25-20).
In the semifinal round, AC
knocked off Burlington (25-13,
25-11) before dropping both sets
to McPherson in the final by
the same score of 25-20.
The All-Tournament team
consisted of the Bulldogs
Caitlin Foltz, Brooke Galey
and Rilyn Sommer. They were
joined by McPherson's Haely
Hagemann and Alex Romero
as well as Shelbi Wilson from
Labette County.

HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION No. 5022
A PROPOSITION to amend sections 2 and 5 of article 9 of the
constitution of the state of Kansas to require that a sheriff be elected in
each county for a term of four years.
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:
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 or rejection: Sections 2 and 5 of article 9 of the
constitution of the state of Kansas are hereby amended to read as
follows:
2. County and township officers. (a) Except as provided in
subsection (b), each county shall elect a sheriff for a term of four years
by a majority of the qualified electors of the county voting thereon at
the time of voting designated for such office pursuant to law in effect on
January 11, 2022, and every four years thereafter.
(b) The provisions of subsection (a) shall not apply to a county that
abolished the office of sheriff prior to January 11, 2022. Such county
may restore the office of sheriff as provided by law and such restoration
shall be irrevocable. A county that restores the office of sheriff shall
elect a sheriff by a majority of the qualified electors of the county voting
thereon for a term of four years. Such sheriff shall have such
qualifications and duties as provided by law. The time of voting for
the office of sheriff may be provided for by the legislature pursuant to
section 18 of article 2 of this constitution.
(c) The filling of vacancies and the qualifications and duties of the
office of sheriff shall be as provided by law.
(d) The legislature shall provide for such other county and township
officers as may be necessary.
5. Removal of officers. (a) Except as provided in subsection (b),
all county and township officers may be removed from office, in such
manner and for such cause, as shall be prescribed by law.
(b) A county sheriff only may be involuntarily removed from office

amendment would also provide that a county sheriff only may
be involuntarily removed from office pursuant to either a recall
election or a writ of quo warranto initiated by the attorney
general.
A vote for this proposition would preserve the right of citizens of
each county that elected a county sheriff as of January 11, 2022, to
continue electing the county sheriff via popular vote. The
amendment would also direct that a county sheriff only may be
involuntarily removed from office pursuant to either a recall
election or a writ of quo warranto initiated by the attorney
general.
A vote against this proposition would not make any changes to the
constitution and would retain current law concerning the election
of a sheriff and the procedures for involuntary removal of a sheriff
from office.
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

New programs can help with the stress of high energy bills
(BPT) – Soaring energy prices equate
to rising energy bills for households
nationwide. This is a burden in particular for low-income people on a tight
budget. No one should have to go without the energy necessary to heat and
power their home, and now, thanks to
numerous programs and incentives,
there are more options to keep costs
down for those that need it most.
This fall, you can make a change for
yourself and others on ENERGY STAR
Day, an annual celebration of the benefits of energy efficiency, including saving energy, money and protecting the
planet. Consider these opportunities
to make energy efficiency upgrades
and help lower your energy bills and
save money. Learn about these and
other ways to save energy and money
at energystar.gov/SaveForGood.
Rebates and tax incentives
Through rebates and tax incentives,
ENERGY STAR certified products like
heat pump water heaters, clean heating
and cooling, and household appliances
are becoming more affordable while
enabling customers to save on their
monthly energy bills. For example,
ENERGY STAR certified heat pumps
are eligible for a $300 federal income
tax credit for residential energy efficiency, plus rebates and incentives
from local utilities in many areas.
Ultra-efficient upgrades
When upgrading heating and cooling elements of the home, look for
options with superior efficiency. Heat

Fall into fitness to improve balance and mobility
(BPT) – Falling is a common concern among seniors, particularly as
a fall has the potential to be more
devastating for an older adult than
the small scrape or bruise many
might expect. While Fall Prevention
Awareness Month is in September,
it's always a good time to learn more
about these very real risks and ways
to reduce them. A simple step like
joining a senior fitness program can
significantly reduce the impact of falls
or even prevent them entirely. Not
only are these programs effective, but
as members will tell you, they're lots
of fun, and you may already be eligible to participate. SilverSneakers, the
nation's leading fitness program for
older adults, is available to more than
18 million Americans through select
Medicare plans.
The gravity of falls
Falls have been a fact of life for each
of us, ever since we took our first steps
as infants. While often embarrassing and sometimes painful, as we get
older, they may become more frequent
with more serious consequences,
including broken bones and hospitalization. More than one in three people
aged 65 years or older falls each year,
according to the National Institutes of
Health's National Institute on Aging.
Falls are the second leading cause of
unintentional injury deaths worldwide.
Many factors increase fall risk.
Some may be obvious such as poor
vision, unsupportive footwear and
hazards in the home including stairs
or surfaces that easily become slippery. But other factors may seem
unrelated or change so slowly that we
don't notice the danger. These include
difficulty hearing, single or combined
medications that cause dizziness, and
decreased lower body strength and
ankle mobility.
Some of these issues are best
addressed by a medical professional,
but exercise can dramatically reduce
the risk of falls and the consequences.
By engaging in activities that improve
balance and build strength, you
can become less vulnerable to falls.
Fortunately, senior fitness programs
prioritize those very things.
Developing stronger seniors
While anyone can begin exercising
at any time, it can be difficult to know
where or how to start. Which activities
are best? How do you know if you're
performing them correctly?
Fitness programs are a great solution because they offer a variety of
ways to get active, but senior fitness
programs offer the guidance that you
need – the right activities at the right
pace to maintain interest and prevent
injury, where, when and how you
want. As seniors, you have a unique
set of physical and emotional needs,
making activities that are offered in
convenient community locations or
from the comfort of home especially
appealing. For older adults, the social
component is often just as important
and beneficial as the physical.
SilverSneakers offers members a
network of up to 23,000 fitness locations across the nation as well as live
online fitness classes and on-demand
workouts that can be joined virtually. The program features classes and
exercises that focus on improving balance and building the strength necessary to prevent falls, including yoga,
bodyweight exercises, Pilates and
more. Tai Chi has been shown to help
with balance and flexibility, making
it a popular option among seniors.
Mild weight-bearing activities, such as
walking or climbing stairs, also build
strength and may even slow bone loss
from osteoporosis.
"The activities a program like
SilverSneakers offers are designed
with one demographic in mind seniors," explained Maria Granzotti,
Chief Medical Officer at Tivity
Health. "As a result, they prioritize
areas that become vulnerable with
age, often without us even realizing
it until something happens, like a fall.
SilverSneakers instructors ensure
these programs are appealing, accessible, safe and fun, increasing the likelihood members will participate and
helping them to improve strength and
balance, which decreases the risk of
falls."
SilverSneakers' offerings target the
unique needs of seniors, but they are
also designed based on member feedback. The program regularly surveys
its members to ensure it is offering
members the activities they enjoy in
the ways that work best for them. And
if proof was ever needed that these are
the activities seniors want, on Aug.
31, it was provided. In honor of its
30th Anniversary, SilverSneakers set
a Guinness World Records title for
the most viewers of a dance fitness live

5 tips for getting your home feeling refreshed and cozy for fall
(BPT) – As autumn gets underway,
leaves change colors, temperatures
cool down and days get shorter.
During this time of change, your home
and wardrobe go through a transition
as well. This is the time of year you
get sweaters and jackets out of storage
bins or the back of your closet, and
blankets come out to warm up beds
and provide comfy spots on your favorite pieces of furniture. Unfortunately,
if you don't take steps to freshen up
your garments and fabrics, your home
may end up feeling more stuffy than
cozy, and create more sneezing than
cuddling.
Here are tips to help refresh your
home, so you can better enjoy everything the season has to offer.
1. Air out items that were in storage
From winter coats to blankets, any
items that have been stored for several months are bound to smell musty.
Take garments and other items out of
storage well ahead of when you want
to use them to wash them, if possible,
then air them out – then assess what
shape they're in before using them.
2. Consider a steam closet to refresh
garments, blankets and more
To refresh musty, wrinkled items
from everyday clothes and your best
suits to winter coats to hard-to-wash
items like blankets, pillows and more,
the LG Styler makes everyday laundry more streamlined and hassle-free.
LG Styler uses TrueSteam technology to sanitize, deodorize and refresh
your wardrobe and other items so
everything's ready to use or wear. You
can quickly dry sweaters that need
to be laid flat or refresh delicate tex-
tiles to avoid over-washing. Use LG's
Exclusive Moving Hangers to gently
shake things off to refresh jackets,
dresses and other items. You can even
use it to sanitize bags, pillows and
stuffed toys.
With no need for complicated hookups, the versatile LG Styler is easy to
install not just in laundry rooms but
any space: dressing rooms, closets,
mudrooms or pantries. Wherever it
fits in your home, the LG Styler makes
freshening up items every day even
more effortless.
Even better, LG ThinQ smart
capabilities also give users the freedom to remotely turn the LG Styler
on and off, select and start the cleaning cycle, check remaining cycle time,
download additional cycles and get
recommendations on the best cycle for
particular pieces of clothing. The app
also offers additional specialty cycle
settings – even for sports equipment.
3. Be allergy conscious
It's not recommended to air bedding, clothing and other items outdoors if someone in your household
suffers from allergies or asthma, or
you'll just be bringing all that fall pollen indoors. That's another advantage
of using LG Styler to refresh and sanitize everything from bedding and pillows to clothing and stuffed animals,
as it is certified asthma and allergy
friendly by the Asthma and Allergy
Foundation of America (AAFA) for
reducing 99.9% of the allergens, germs
and bacteria from multiple fabrics.
Once you've refreshed your items,
bring on the seasonal throw blankets
and decorative pillows to create cozy

spaces to hang out, read or play games
during long autumn evenings.
4. Give floors a deep clean
Before the colder temperatures of
winter set in, it's a great time to do a
deep clean of your home's flooring,
including having any large area rugs
sent out for cleaning. If you don't have
the equipment to thoroughly clean any
carpeted areas, you could consider hiring a cleaning service for a good fall
cleaning.
One great option to help clean
your floors is the LG CordZero All
in One Auto Empty Cordless Stick
VacuumEndFragment –>. It not only
tackles tough jobs, but makes the job
easier by charging, storing tools and
automatically emptying the dust bin
in one sleek docking station.
5. Shed a little light on the subject
As days get shorter, there are things
you can do to make your home brighter and more cheerful. For example,
have your fireplace cleaned and maintained so you can use it as a warm
focal point, and upgrade a few lighting
options – even your choice of bulb
makes a difference – to keep darkness at bay. If you're up for a project,
consider repainting a dark room in
a brighter color, or swap out heavy
window treatments with lighter, more
translucent options that let more natural light in, to help make the most of
daylight hours.
With these tips, you can be sure
everything will feel fresh and clean,
from the clothes you wear to your
bedding and all the decorative touches
that make your home comfy and cozy.

1. Pet allergies need a quick response
Just like their pet parents, dogs and
cats are prone to seasonal allergies.
MetLife's data from last fall (Sept. Nov. 2021) found atopy, commonly
known as pet environmental allergies,
was the most common pet insurance
claim during this season – implying
heightened veterinary visits and prescriptions needed.
Prevention is key. Look out for common, fast-emerging allergy symptoms
such as sneezing, watery nose or eyes,
skin irritation and inflammation. On
the surface, these symptoms may not
seem like a big deal. But when left
untreated, they can easily lead to larger issues such as inflamed and irritated skin, hot spots (for dogs) or even
hair loss and bleeding in more severe
cases. If your dog or cat has allergies,
try to identify allergy triggers and visit
a veterinarian for proper treatment.
2. Dress for success
As the weather shifts to cooler temperatures and you start bringing out
your sweaters, it's a good time to take
stock of what clothing your pet may
also need. This is especially important
if you live in a cold climate or your
furry friend shivers outdoors. Check
your local pet stores for jackets, rain
jackets or sweaters for your dog or cat
to wear to keep them warm during the
colder months.
Halloween is also quickly approach-

ing. When picking out your pet's cute
costume this year, make sure it's also
cozy and safe! Look for costumes and
outfits that fit properly and don't
restrict their movement, hearing or
breathing. Make sure to steer clear of
dangling pieces or extra parts, which
can pose a choking hazard or cause a
throat blockage if ingested.
3. Prevent accidental escapes
Fall is a busy season, between children heading back to school and the
holiday season just around the corner.
People are constantly coming in and
out of the house as a result, so it's particularly important to keep a close eye
on your pet's whereabouts to prevent
an accidental escape and injury. Some
key spots to consider are your front
door, garage door and backyard – especially if it isn't gated.
To ensure your pet isn't lingering
by an exit point as you and your guests
come and go, designate a safe, comfortable play space for them to go to, along
with some of their favorite toys for distraction. A pet or baby gate may also
be helpful to prevent these accidental
escapes. Additionally, don't forget to
inform your guests about your pet so
they can be more cautious when arriving and leaving.
While some of the preventative measures of protecting your pet this fall can
be costly, you can consider taking measures to help offset some of the costs
of health issues such as allergies or
accidental injuries. Pet parents: if you
want to invest in your pet's safety and
health this fall and beyond, consider
getting a pet insurance policy – to help
keep you and your pet prepared. To

swaps and tips
FROM PAGE 3
(BPT) – As the leaves begin to change
color and the temperatures get a little
cooler, it can be challenging to stay
on track with your nutritional goals.
Cooler months often come with less
outdoor activity as you begin to hunker down indoors. But the change in
seasons doesn't have to mean giving
up on your wellness – or sacrificing a
sweet treat you enjoy.
"There are many ways to follow a
balanced lifestyle that allow you to live
your best healthy life," said Colette
Heimowitz, vice president of Nutrition
and Education at Simply Good Foods
Company. "All it takes is a little planning, and snack options without a ton
of sugar – that still taste delicious and
fit into your lifestyle."
Heimowitz offers a few easy and
tasty ways to incorporate healthy habits into your lifestyle this fall.
1. Smart candy bowl swaps
As Halloween approaches, you may
be looking for a little sweet indulgence while fighting the urge to eat
the entire candy bowl. As an alternative, try swapping out candy with
portion-controlled treats like Atkins
Endulge Peanut Butter Cups and Milk
Chocolate Caramel Squares, which
have less carbs and sugar than traditional chocolate candy, serving as a
delicious and smart solution that will
still satisfy your sweet tooth.
2. Festive outdoor activities
While cooler weather and shorter
days may tempt you to stay inside
with a book or movie, there are still
plenty of fun fall activities to get you
moving this autumn. Fall leaves provide a beautiful backdrop to a variety
of outings you can enjoy with friends
and family, from taking a bike ride or
nature walk to enjoying the fruits of
the harvest. Stroll through a farmers
market or visit a pick-your-own apple
orchard or pumpkin patch to enjoy
the best of what fall fruits have to
offer – while getting plenty of exercise,
sunshine and fresh air.
3. Fall-flavored recipes
When those seasonal pumpkin
spice-flavored drinks and treats start
appearing at every local coffee shop
and grocery store, you know that fall
has truly arrived. You can enjoy all the
deliciousness of your favorite autumn
flavors while staying on track with
your wellness goals, by switching
some of those traditional sugar-heavy
drinks with this tasty pumpkin-flavored recipe instead.

3. Create an outdoor scavenger
hunt – You can make a scavenger hunt
ahead of time by hiding funny, unexpected items or toys around your yard,
but you can also just use things you
might see in your neighborhood for
the hunt and turn it into a nature
walk. With the leaves changing, can
your kids find different colored leaves
or acorns in the backyard? A pro tip – if
you have kids with seasonal allergies,
make sure to keep a basket outside
the front door for your kids to leave
their shoes. It helps to limit any pollen
tracked inside the house and can really help to minimize symptoms.

4. If inclement weather is in play,
create an indoor art studio – Fall
weather can be unpredictable, so I like
to have indoor activities ready just
in case. We always keep art materials like paint, playdough or chalk on
hand to create fun projects. To add
some unique elements, I let the kids
quickly run outside to grab leaves,
sticks, acorns and more to incorporate
into their art. Another pro allergy
mom tip: make sure to have your kids
wash their hands so any pollen or dust
doesn't end up on their faces or carry
into other parts of the house.

3 back-to-school tips if your family is having a hard time adjusting
(BPT) – The back-to-school season can
be overwhelming for the whole family. While there's excitement about
reuniting with friends and starting a
new school year, it can be challenging
for parents and kids to get back into a
solid routine.
To help busy parents prepare their
children mentally and physically to
return to the classroom, Registered
Dietitian and Nutritionist Dalina Soto
has provided the following three simple tips that you can easily incorporate
into your fall routine.
1. Reestablish a sleep routine
Summers often consist of late nights
and mornings, so it can be tough
for parents and children to adjust to
weekday school hours. Before school
begins, establish firm sleep and wake
times for yourself and the kids.
You don't have to do it all at once.
Ease into it by adjusting bedtime and
the morning alarm to a half-hour earlier than your current routine. Once a
week or every few days, keep moving
it earlier until you have reestablished
the school year sleep routine.
2. Double down on hydration
During the hot summer months at
home, you can keep a close eye on your
kids and ensure they drink plenty of
water as they play outside. However,
during the school year, you aren't able
to remind them in between classes
to grab a drink. Staying hydrated
has its benefits. In addition to helping your child stay healthy, regular
hydration can boost your child's mood,
memory and attention, according to

To encourage your kids to hydrate
during the school week, add a reusable
water bottle to your back-to-school
shopping list. As you shop, help your
child pick out a fun water bottle they
can fill up at home and at school.
3. Start the day with a nutritious
meal
One way to make your life easier
and alleviate stress as you head into
the busyness of the fall season is to
have some simple, nutritious meals
and snacks you can make in a pinch.
Eggs are an easy, delicious and nourishing ingredient you can incorporate
into any meal at any time of the day.

3 easy ways to enjoy living color in your outdoor space this fall
(BPT) – As temperatures drop and
seasons turn, that doesn't mean
you have to give up on the vivid
blooms you love so much in your
yard. Strategically adding seasonal
plants that can withstand cooler
weather is a great way to bring
color and dimension to outdoor
spaces.
To educate and inspire, the
plant and gardening experts at Ball
Horticultural Company share simple tips, top trends and standout
plants that are ideal for fall:
Pollinator plants in
traditional autumn hues
There's no easier way to add
autumn atmosphere to your entryway, walkways and flower boxes
than with the warm hues of rich yellows and sunny oranges. Blooms in
these colors convey happiness and
warmth, making them beautifully
eye-catching. Some plants in these
tones are especially attractive to
bees and butterflies, helping create
pollinator-friendly spaces.
For example, award-winning
Echinacea Artisan Yellow Ombre
is a native-type prairie plant that
attracts songbirds, bees and butterflies throughout fall, and into
winter.
Moody blues are
trending for fall
While yellow and orange are
quintessential fall colors, you can
add an on-trend element to your
outdoor space with Spreading
Pansy Cool Wave Blue. The stunning dark, moody blue hue plays
nicely when combined with a jewel-toned autumn palette. It is also a
standout choice by itself, reflecting
GARNETT
4×6 Garnett Home Center
HOME CENTER & RENTAL
the cooler weather, crisp air and
clear night skies associated with
the fall months.
The vibrant shade of solid blue
is beautiful in planters and hanging baskets, as well as in landscaping and window boxes. This
sun-loving variety is a spreading
pansy, meaning it can serve as
great groundcover, as well. You
can enjoy this pansy in fall, and
with superior overwintering hardiness, it's the earliest pansy to
return in the spring.
Create dimension through
floral shapes
Color is one important aspect of
landscape design, but to really elevate your outdoor appeal, consider
dimension as well. Creating variables in plants through shape and
texture adds visual interest, bring-
ing new depth to a space. To create
this, mix florals with greenery and
don't be afraid of nontraditional
flower shapes.
The perfect example is Celosia,
which features blooms in unique
shapes such as plumes, spikes or
wavy crests. You can create any
outdoor aesthetic you desire with
varieties available in yellow,
orange, red and dark purple. Each
adds texture and dimension, pairing well with mums and other popular autumn florals.
Whether it's containers, window
boxes or several strategic places in
your landscaping, you can update
your home for the fall season and
boost your curb appeal with fall
flowers. A dash of color and texture
will help your home be a standout
on the block.

I like to bring out extra flannels, hats

blankets also help to protect the kids
from any pollen that may fall from the
trees.
