THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 06-29-2010 / Vickie Moss
Wildflowers look to find sunlight in a small break in the clouds last week near Welda. A series of recent storms, some attributed to after effects of a
recent hurricane in the Gulf Coast, have hit the county in the past two weeks. More storms are expected later this week.
Heat, but not
drought, breaks
Burn ban lifted,
but local lakes
still lower
BY VICKIE MOSS THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT The grass is
a little greener, and you
may need to dust off that
mower for one last goround before fall begins.
But
other
than
greener lawns, cooler
temperatures and a few
incidents of storm damage, recent rains havent
made much of a dent on
extreme drought conditions locally.
Still,
a
soggy
September was welcome to many across the
region. Nearly 2 inches
of rain fell on the first
day of the month, followed by rain and storms
off and on since then.
An intense storm
Friday afternoon led
to damage at one rural
Colony home. A sudden burst
of heavy
winds damaged Sandra
Hardwicks
home,
destroying at least two
outbuildings, a chimney,
a trampoline and other
property. The storm
ripped the roof off a barn
filled with household
belongings; the family
is remodeling the inside
of the home and had
been storing furniture
and other items in the
barn. Hardwick said she
wasnt sure how much
damage had been done.
The
damage
at
Hardwicks home was the
only incident of damage
reported from that particular storm, Emergency
Management Director
Marvin Grimes said. It
appears the damage was
caused by straight line
winds about 50-60 mph,
although its possible
winds could have been a

GARNETT Gators may soon hit the
streets of Garnett.
No, the city isnt hosting a scene from a
horror flick about ravenous water reptiles.
Instead, city commissioners likely will
allow work-site utility vehicles including
the popular Gator vehicles to travel on
certain city streets.
At their regular meeting at 6:30 p.m. today
at City Hall, commissioners will review a
proposed ordinance that would allow people to drive those vehicles on city streets.
The ordinance follows a request from Alan
Quaintenance, maintenance director for
USD 365. Quaintenance asked commissioners last month to consider allowing the
vehicles on city streets. He uses a work-site
utility vehicle, which allows him to carry
tools and supplies, while using considerably less fuel than a work truck. He would
like to be allowed to travel between school
buildings in Garnett, but the law does not
allow such vehicles on the road.

Fall cleanup
begins soon
Garnett citywide garage sales
kick off annual fall event
with free dumping at landfill
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 06-29-2010 / Vickie Moss
A trampoline and trees were among the damage caused to a rural Colony home Friday afternoon
when a storm moved through the area. Emergency officials said straight-line winds up to 60 mph
likely accounted for the damage.
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Your chance for a little fall
cleanup begins Saturday, with citywide
garage sales followed by citywide cleanup.
The annual fall activities kick off
Saturday morning, when local garage sale
enthusiasts will hit the streets looking
for bargains. The event is sponsored by
the Garnett Area Chamber of Commerce,
which collects a registry of garage sales
and prints a map of those registered sales.
The map is available at the Chamber office,
419 S. Oak St., starting Sept. 13.

Teachers to receive bonuses based on test scores
USD 365 board approves
plan to reward teachers
for student achievement
BY VICKIE MOSS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Some teachers in USD
365 schools likely will each receive
a $100 bonus later this year because
of student performances on last
years state assessments.
The school board at their regular
meeting Sept. 6 approved an incentive plan for teachers. Under the
plan, teachers will receive a $100
bonus if the building where they
teach makes adequate yearly progress on state assessment tests. That
means teachers will be rewarded if
students do well on state achievement tests.
The bonus comes into play only
if students as a whole do well, which
is why qualifications for the bonus
are on a building level and not by
grade level. The bonus system was
part of teacher salary negotiations
earlier this summer.
There are some inequities in
the plan, but officials said during
previous discussion they feel this
plan is the most practical approach.
For example, tests are taken in the
spring but results are not available
until the fall. That means teachers
will be rewarded about a year after
the actual tests have been taken.
Its likely some teachers who were
part of the testing process may
leave the district before bonuses
are awarded. Teachers who split
their time between multiple schools
will receive a portion of the award
based on time spent at the building
that qualified for the bonus.
School board members also
debated the criteria by which to
award bonuses for Anderson County
Junior Senior High School teachers.
The recognition is by building, but
school board members questioned
if they should use state assessment
scores from the junior high level or
ACT scores from the high school
level. In the end, board members
chose to keep it simple and consistent, using state assessment scores
from all buildings.
State assessment scores are used

as a measure of student performance. The scores were developed as part of No Child Left
Behind, which set benchmarks
each year. However, the State
of Kansas was granted a waiver from No Child Left Behind
standards. Instead, state education officials will determine
their own benchmarks for educational achievement. Part of
the states new system will ask
districts to determine a method
for evaluating teachers. Some
districts likely will implement
an evaluation system based on
student performance like test
scores, although some say it
is unfair to evaluate teacher
performance by student test

issue is no stranger to governing
bodies in Anderson County.
City commissioners discussed

appeared to be in favor of allowing the vehicles on city streets.
They suggested allowing the
vehicles with restrictions similar to golf carts, which commissioners voted to allow in March.
Golf carts are prohibited on
state and federal highways and
on streets with a posted speed
limit of more than 30 mph, and
cannot be driven at night, among
other restrictions.

December 6, 1954-September 7, 2012
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Published September 11, 2012
Dr. Patrick Alan Thompson, age
57, passed away Friday, September
7, 2012 in his
home,
surrounded by his
family after
a courageous
two-year battle
with cancer.
Pat was born
on December 6,
1954 in Joplin.
Thompson
He graduated
with high honors from Memorial High School
in 1972. He attended Missouri
Southern State University and
graduated Summa Cum Laude with
his B.S. in biology in 1976.
While at Southern, he worked
as a sportswriter for the Joplin
Globe. Pat attended UMKC School
of Dentistry on an Air Force Health
Profession Scholarship. He worked
for four years in the Kansas City
Star sports department during dental school. In 1980, he received his
Doctor of Dental Surgery degree
and was a member of Psi Omega
dental fraternity.
Upon graduation, Pat was commissioned as a captain in the U.S.
Air Force and served the first part
of his four-year commitment at
Kadena Air Force Base, Okinawa,
Japan. While in dental school in
Kansas City, he met his lifelong
sweetheart Debbie Sobba, a dental hygiene student from Garnett,
Kansas. Pat came back from Japan
and the following year married
Debbie a week after her college
graduation. They returned to
Okinawa and from there completed
the Air Force commitment at Dyess
AFB in Abilene, Texas.
In 1984, Pat returned to his
hometown of Joplin and opened up
his private practice. For four years,
he and Debbie also associated with
Dr. Bill Wiggans in Garnett. Over
the next few years, they acquired
other local dental practices. In 1999,
they also started a satellite practice
in Cassville, Mo.
In 2010, they built their dream
facility at 2509 South Jackson. Six
weeks after the grand opening, Pat
was diagnosed with a very aggressive malignant brain tumor. Many
area dentists volunteered days of
their time to keep the office afloat
for months while he received extensive medical care.
In June 2011, Dr. Craig Hayes,
Jr. joined Pat in the Joplin and
Cassville Dental care teams.
Pat had an illustrious dental
career and won many awards for
his dentistry. He became the first
Missouri dentist to receive a fellowship in oral conscious sedation.
He was also certified in I.V. sedation. Pat was one of the 65 dentists worldwide inducted as charter
members of the Crown Council of
Hunt, Texas.
He and Debbie participated
annually in the Dentistry from the
Heart Program, providing free dental care to those in need.
He and his dental team traveled around the country and
studied under experts in the field
in order to provide the best possible treatment and latest technology for their patients. In October,
2010, the Sunrise Dental Solutions
Corporation of Lexington, Kentucky
held a Thompsons Friends Golf
Classic in his honor at the Atlantis
in West Palm Beach Florida.
Pat was also a St. Louis Cardinals
fanatic and collected baseball cards
and memorabilia. He played on,
coached and managed his sons
teams, youth all-star and mens coed and church league softball teams
to many championships. He knew
the sport inside and out. Pat also
announced MSSU baseball games
at Joe Becker Stadium.
Besides his love of baseball, he
was an avid golfer, playing several
times a week. He played in many
area tournaments and enjoyed
playing courses all over the country with his golfing buddies and his
son, Brad.
He served on the Board of
Directors and was a past president
of Twin Hills Golf and Country
Club. His love of sports led him
to be the president of the Thomas
Jefferson Independent Day School
Booster Club for six years.
Pat and Debbie enjoyed fine dining, traveling and the arts. They
went to several movies a week and
attended numerous musical concerts each year. They are life members of the Tulsa Performing Arts
Center and Joplin Little Theater,
where they sponsored many productions.
Pat was a longtime member of
First United Methodist Church
in Joplin where he sang in the
Sanctuary Singers and taught the
Middle School Sunday School Class
along with his wife, Debbie for
seven years. In addition, Pat sang in
a trio with his father Paul and son
Brad, called Three Generations.
Pat was also a past president of
the MSSU Alumni Board, Joplin
Board of Health and a host of other
civic organizations. He was a member of over 15 dental organizations
or study clubs at the local, state and
national levels.
Pat was very kind, caring, loving
and generous husband, father, son,
friend and dentist to all who knew
him.
He was preceded in death by
their daughter, Leigh.
He is survived by the love of his
life and wife of 31 years, Debbie, of
the home; a son, Mike and his wife
Kristi, and future grandson, Alex
(due in November), of Edmond, OK;
son, Brad, of the home, currently a
student at the University of Tulsa;

Sobba of Chapel Hill, NC; nephews,
Chris Sobba of Houston, TX and
Nick Sobba of Parkville. Pat leaves
behind many other beloved relatives.
Services will be held 11:00 a.m.
Tuesday at First United Methodist
Church, 501 W. 4th St. in Joplin,
with longtime family friend and
youth minister, Barry Sanborn,
along with the Pastor, Rev. Bruce
Jacobs, co-officiating. The Cassville
and Joplin Dental Care Team
and spouses will be seated as a
group. Interment will follow at
Ozark Memorial Park Cemetery.
Pallbearers will be sons, Mike and
Brad Thompson, brothers, Bob and
Tim Thompson and brothers-inlaw, Mike and Gary Sobba.
In lieu of flowers, and because
of his love of baseball, the family suggests donations to Missouri

toward a memorial in Pats name,
at the planned new baseball complex.

little higher, he said.
Lightning from a storm earlier in the week struck an oil
field tank near Welda, causing
flames that could be seen for
miles. However, local fire crews
were able to quickly extinguish
the fire.
The storms put an end to a
series of grass fires that kept
local fire crews busy in recent
weeks.
Its kind of nice to get a
break from them. Hopefully the
rain will keep coming, Grimes
said.
The rain also put an end to
an ongoing burn ban. For several weeks, open burning has
been prohibited. That ban has
been lifted. However, Grimes
reminds people they still need
to notify dispatch at (785) 4486823 about any planned burning.
But the rainfall hasnt made
much of an impact on local water
levels, Garnett City Manager
Joyce Martin said. Water levels
at the three local lakes Lake
Garnett, Crystal Lake and the
Cedar Valley Reservoir did not
raise much after the storms.
For local farmers, benefits
from the rain have yet to be
seen. Some of the soybean crop
may fare better than expected
because of the rain, especially
soybeans that were planted
later in the season. Soybeans
have better drought tolerance
than some crops, in that they
shut down and wait for rain,

the soybeans had to shut down
for about two months, so its difficult to predict how well they
can recover by the end of the
growing season. Some of the
late-maturing plants may continue to grow right up until the
first frost, she said.
That might be a bigger
determining factor when will
that first frost happen, Blocker
said.
The rain likely helped farmers most when it comes to planting fall grains and forage wheat,
as well as winter wheat for harvest. Because the soil had been
so dry, it was not productive
for farmers to plant fall crops.
But the recent rain will make
it more likely that farmers find
some success in those areas.
But in some cases, its just
too little, too late. Thats true for
soybeans planted early in the
year, and its especially true for
the corn crop. About 75 percent
of the countys corn crop was
destroyed by drought, Blocker
said. She has heard a few cases
of moderate success, such as a
farmer who irrigates his field
and another with a low-lying
field. But even those farmers
will see decreased yields; high
prices, however, will make any
corn more valuable, Blocker
said.
The rain has at least cooled
some of the extreme temperatures felt most of the summer.
Temperatures the rest of this
week were expected to be in
the upper 80s, dipping to 80 and
the upper 70s by Thursday and
throughout the weekend. More

U.S. technology has given
our enemies a fear of
the unknown
On the 11the anniversary of the
9/11 terrorist attacks against America,
it seems appropriate to celebrate the
reversal of fortune now apparent in
bringing our own brand of airborne
terrorism back to the enclaves of
remaining Al Qaeda in Pakistan via the
United States developing drone technology.
Beyond the politics and the philosophical debates over U.S.-led War on
Terror of the last decade, theres a
certain feeling of primal satisfaction
for Americans in knowing that our
enemies now
know how it feels
EDITORIAL
to live in fear of
the unknown.
Like the murderous airborne
surprise delivered to the World
Trade Centers
and Pentagon in
2001, the success
of drone attacks
against internaby Dane Hicks,
tional criminals
PUBLISHER
now have their
compatriots wondering which moment may be their last.
Unmanned drones have proven to
be the effective synergy of technology
and a military policy now demanded to
execute with near surgical precision.
The killing of Al Qaeda number two
man Abu Yahya al-Libi in the Pakistani
village of Hassu Khel this summer was
the latest gold strike for the drone program, whose accuracy is only rivaled
by its comparative budgetary savings in
terms of military bang-for-the buck.
Its no wonder that what there is
of a Pakistani government reviles U.S.
drone strikes. Had the nation been
capable of adequately policing its own
various tribal elements instead of
pursing a policy of overt negligence
that allowed Osama bin Laden to live
there for years, such effective measures
would not have been necessary within
its borders.
Lacking that, we applaud the consistency of the U.S. effort to continue
to locate and destroy targets within
Pakistans tribal belt. The U.S. should
use that technology and all other assets
at its disposal to kill the bad guys in
Pakistan and elsewhere. On this anniversary, acknowledging that success is
a tribute to the casualties of 9/11 and
to those whove lost their lives on the
side of right in the War on Terror since
then.

Are you better off ?
comes to call
BY RICH LOWRY
NATIONAL REVIEW
Are people better off than they were
four years ago? is hardly a trick question. Its one of the most reliable cliches
in American politics.
So Gov. Martin OMalley, a Democrat
from Maryland, should have been ready
with some handy dodge when he was
asked the question by
Bob Schieffer of Face
the Nation. Really, in
the circumstance, any
circumlocution would
do.
Instead, OMalley
said No, igniting
Lowry
a firestorm with his
unadorned, monosyllabic honesty. Which didnt last. Within
24 hours, the skies had brightened, the
malaise had lifted, and OMalley was
pronouncing the country clearly better
off.
OMalley can be forgiven for his initial forthrightness. People who make
their living coming up with creative
ways to avoid questions inconvenient to
President Barack Obama didnt do all
that much better. Asked twice on Fox
News Sunday if Americans are better
off, David Axelrod pointedly wouldnt
say yes or no. Asked three times on
This Week, David Plouffe passed on a
direct answer all three times.
After getting knocked around for
their evasiveness, though, the Obama
team recalibrated and decided to answer
absolutely to the better-off question.
The herald of the new message was
none other than the man best-suited to
bluster his way through a not-particularly credible statement, Vice President
Joe Biden.
America is better off today than
they left us when they left, Biden told a
union rally, before adducing as evidence
what he called a bumper sticker:
Osama bin Laden is dead and General
Motors is alive.
The catchy bumper sticker doesnt
address the better-off question. The
query has to do with personal economic
well-being. Its a wonderful thing that
bin Laden was dispatched, but it doesnt
give anyone any additional income. Its
terrific for GMs remaining workers
that they are still working, but the cost
of the car companys bailout — some $35
billion — makes it a rotten deal for everyone else.
A clever bumper sticker cant obscure
that real median income has declined
$4,300 since January 2009, the unemployment rate has been above 8 percent
for 42 straight months, and long-term
unemployment is up and labor-force
participation is down. The Democrats
can say all of this is an accident of timing: The aftereffects of the Bush recession are unfairly counted against their
record. But the recovery that they take
credit for is also an accident of timing.
The economy wasnt going to keep shedding 800,000 jobs a month forever.
In fact, the recovery proved dismayingly lackluster. President Obamas signature initiatives — a stimulus designed
to sate pent-up congressional spending
demands, ObamaCare, the hideously
complex regulations of Dodd-Frank – were irrelevant to or crosswise with
promoting a sustained, robust recovery.
Now, the president gives himself a
grade of incomplete, as if he has
much else yet to accomplish. Yet his
stated second-term agenda consists only
of a tax increase on the wealthy, and
getting along with the same congressional Republicans he cant abide. Theres
evidently nothing for him to complete,
except riding out the consequences of
his misbegotten first term.
Eventually, American will be better
off than they were in 2008. When that
day finally comes, this president will
have had nothing to do with it.

Review.
Pence legacy, impact lives on
Bob Pence has recently passed away.
Pences grocery store had such a profound impact on so many people and
I regret never telling him how much I
appreciated working there. Pences grocery store wasnt just an employer; when
you strapped on that blue apron and
punched in for the day, you were family.
The family had all the hallmarks of a
real family: laughter, love, tears,
and of course,
the
occasional
dysfunction. Bob
and Bruce Pence
endured more shenanigans in one day than most employers endure in one year. But then again,
thats what family does.
Bob may not have known it, but he
was mentoring young men and women
through a variety of actions. We saw a
disciplined man who carried himself
with both humility and dignity. We saw
a man lead through example, and when
confronted with conflict, deal with it
constructively. We saw a man who had
enough confidence to treat the town
millionaire and the town pauper to that
same bright smile. We saw a man who
didnt need to work, but did anyway.
There are simply too many instances
of Bob Pences grace and mercy to list,
but one instance that comes to memory
was watching Bob confront the same
shoplifter over and over, never banning
the thief or calling the police even. I later
asked Bob about it and he responded:
we cant ban that guy from the store . . .
he doesnt have the transportation to go
somewhere else and steal. I started to
laugh and he sternly reminded me that
I needed to mind
my own business
and get back to
work. Just another simple lesson
from the boss 1)
mind business; 2)
get back to worka formula that has
served me well ever since.
Bob, thank you. Thank you for the
life lessons, the laughs, for not firing me
on the numerous occasions I deserved
it; thank you for giving me a safe place
to work, a great place to work, and for
all the wonderful memories.
Pence IGA may be gone, and Bob Pence
may be gone too; but both live on in
the hearts of those of us that proudly
wore that blue apron. On behalf of your
Pence IGA familywe love you Bob
Pence.

Attorney-at-Law
A couple of weeks ago a caller said the
sidewalk along the west side was put there
because the feds forced the city to do this.
This is not so. In 2008 the Disability Rights
Center out of Topeka notified the city they
were in violation of the 1990 ADA law. The
city refused to work with the DRC, and hired
a law firm out of Kansas City to fight and stall
the DRC. In 2009 Senator Pat Roberts office
got involved and filed with the Department
of Justice in Washington. Thats how the
feds got involved, but the feds did not force
the city to put a sidewalk along the west side
of 59. Its the citys refusal to work with the
DRC that got the feds involved in the first
place. The past four years the public was only
informed of one side of the story, and theres
two sides to every story. Theres more to this
than meets the eye. Thank you.
Hey Garnett people, the president of the
United States or the governor must be coming to town. They are finally fixing some
streets that needed to be done years ago,
especially Fourth Street. That was a deplorable mess. If they still want to build a new
hospital, let St. Lukes build it. There will be
six pages of unpaid taxes in the paper instead
of three and a half pages. You are just going
to drive people out of the town with higher
taxes and no jobs. Thank you.
I dont know whether its the rain or the new
school, but were sure having a lot of trouble
with our sewer over here in north Garnett.
It could be water is leaking into the sewer
or something, but our stools arent flushing
completely. Just thought Id let you know
because nobody down at the city is open
today.
Why is it okay for police officers to not stop
at stop signs, go faster than the speed limit,
or when theyre off duty to drink beer at
someones house and drive home? Just a
question Im pondering. I dont understand
how they can give out tickets when they are
doing the same thing.
When these kids are getting MIPs and DUIs,
why doesnt the city or county make a deal
with them that they get off if you find out
where theyre getting the alcohol? That could
stop a whole lot of trouble.
Isnt there a law against parking the wrong
direction in the street? And how come motorcycles are allowed to park sticking out in the
street to where two cars cannot meet?
About the man who got the 50 year sentence
for child molestation- I think you need to
say thank you to your county attorney for
that one. As a representative of the law and
the people of the State of Kansas he petitioned the judge to make those sentences
run one after the other so the man gets 50
years instead of half that. Well done Mr.
Campbell.
City of Garnett needs to take some money
and fix the benches out at the demolition site
and they also need to go make picnic tables
and shelters out at the reservoir where there
are none.
Hi, I was just wondering when the city is
going to take down the school zone signs
around the old GEC and IPC buildings.
Theres no need for school speed zones there
anymore and I was just wondering when they
were going to take those down.
It is a pity that it takes a liberal Democrat to
tell the truth. The reason why your children
are living at home with you is because evil
men like Republican Romney has taken their
jobs and shipped them to China- communist
China. Foolish people like you dont want to
know the truth, do you?
I was reading about the convicted sex offender who molested his own son. Im happy with
what he got. Matter of fact I hope he never
gets out. Being what he is he probably wont
live very long in prison. Good. But the other
thing that gets me is the mother of that child.
How could she let someone who raped her,
take her son to him. It just upsets me. Poor
judgment on her part. Whats wrong with
parents these days?
I just drove by the site for the old Garnett
Elementary Center and I see a plumbing and
heating contractor, an electrical contractor, a
mechanical contractor and a roof contractor
all there on the site today. Every single one
of them is from out of town. Now, werent we
told they were going to try to use local contractors on this project, or did us local yokels
just lose out again? Bye.
The target range on Catalpa Street still goes
on with the firing of high-powered rifles that
can kill you within two miles. With only two
bales of hay as a backstop, the whole area
including Garnett, the highway and airport
is in danger. The county commissioners and
sheriff are gutless and refuse to do anything
about it. They can pass an ordinance making
gun ranges comply with NRS rules. When
someone gets killed, they will act surprised.

Katzer family meets
Decedents of Adolph and
Catherine (Kueser) Katzer gathered the weekend of Sept. 2 and
3 for a reunion and celebrated
the 130th anniversary of our
ancestors settling in Anderson
County.
Saturday started off with
some cousins gathering at the
Central Street Bar and Grill in
Richmond for lunch. From there
we all went to the cemetery at
Scipio to visit the graves of the
family of our Grandma Kueser
Katzer and other relatives.
Next stop was St. Johns
cemetery at Greeley to visit the
graves of our Grandpa Adolph
and Grandma Catherine Katzer
, our Great Grandpa Johanna
and Great Grandma ???? and
many other Katzer relatives.
A prayer written by Carolyn
Katzer Pruegert was recited
and flowers were put on our
ancestors graves.
From there we loaded up for
a hay rack ride to the area
where our Great-grand parents settled in 1882 south of
Greeley. Spent time there taking pictures and talking about
how great it was to be walking
on the land that our ancestors
lived on 130 years ago. Carolyn
Katzer Pruegert had prepared
a history of the land and talked
about it to the cousins. She had
also written a prayer for our
ancestors that was recited while
there.
Then off to Holy Angels cemetery near Garnett to visit the
graves of aunts, uncles, cousins and other ancestors buried
there.
Saturday evening everyone
enjoyed a great evening at the
residence of Glenn and Ruth
Lee Hastert. Grilled hot dogs
and everything to go with them
plus some delicious carry in side
dishes were enjoyed by everyone
in attendance. The evening was
spent visiting about the great
day we all had, past reunions,
catching up on happenings and
looking forward to Sunday.

Parker Days moves
to Heritage Park
BY JUDY KINDER
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
This year, the Parker Day
Committee made a bold move.
Since the mid-70s the annual
event has long been established
along Main Street; but thats all
about to change.
After much thought, event
coordinator Crystal Riggs made
the decision earlier this year
to re-locate the celebration to
the newly established Heritage
Park.
She said, It really seemed like
a no-brainer. We have this beautiful new city park, that offers a
wonderful shelter house with
bathrooms as well as shaded
areas throughout that will provide protection from the sun
and heat that we have had to
deal with over the many years
that Parker has had the annual
event.
Through the years the community has seen little change
to the annual celebration.
After many years of being
known as Parker Days, the
event changed its name to
Harvest Fest in the mid-90s,
after moving its dates from
mid-July to the earl fall, with
the hope that the change would
bring on cooler weather so that
patrons would enjoy the festival more comfortably.
And even though the event
has kept the Sept date, the
committee made the decision
last year to return the name to
Parker Days.
And with the new change of
venue, also comes a different
theme that was appropriately
thought of.
Riggs says, This years
theme is Adventure Under the
Trees which just feels like a
perfect fit since the majority of
our programs will be under
the trees.
The fun begins on Sept 15
with a 5K run/walk (register at
the shelter house from 6:30am7am), with the race beginning
shortly thereafter (the fee is $20
in advance and $25 the day of
the race).
Both the kids and main
parade route this year will
take the participants along E
Woodward. (kids will need to
register at the shelter house
by 10:15am-with their parade
beginning at 10:30am and
those participating in the main
parade will need to register by
10:15am at Parker Elementary
with that parade beginning at
11:00am).
Riggs goes on to talk about
the many events that will be
taking place in the park.
We will have a craft contest
that will be geared to homemade crafts as well as canning
(fruits, vegetables, salsa, jams,
jellies and pickles). Were also
going to have a baking contest
(cakes cookies, brownies, pies)
and contestants will need to
check in no later than 11:30am,
because judging will start
shortly thereafter.
Kids games will follow the
parade.
Riggs adds, Our other
events will include the Baby
Contest at Noon, the Iced-Tee
(Shirt) Contest at 1pm, the
Horseshoe Pitching Contest at
1pm, the Tug of War at 2pm and
the Chicken Flying Contest at
2:45pm.
Riggs goes on to say that the
all-time favorite Lawn Mower
Race will begin at 3:30pm and
participants will be required to
have a helmet and valid drivers
license.
She also notes that there will
be inflatables from Noon until
4pm and wristbands will be
available for $5 for unlimited
access.
A Community Dinner (5pm)
followed by a talent show and
the announcement of the
Parker Day Royalty and grand
prize and merchants drawing
will wrap up the early evening
events.
She states, Our street dance
will be held at the shelter house
and we will also have a mechanical bull on site for those who
think they are brave enough to
attempt a ride.
Riggs says that vendors can
contact her to reserve their
spot (913) 898-4902 and adds that
there will be limited electricity
available.
She continues, There will
be designated parking throughout and along the area as well
as designated handicap parking
on the east edge of the park.
Sundays schedule (Sept 16) will
see the return of the Fishing
Derby at Parker Lake beginning at 8:30am.
This years festivities will
conclude with the Gospel SingAlong that will be held at the
shelter house, so everyone will
need to bring their lawn chair,
she says.
All in all this years event
looks to be a wonderful way
to welcome the fall season and
will truly be an adventure
under the trees.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 06-29-2010 / Vickie Moss
The Anderson County varsity girls golf team began the 2012 season by competing in the Fort Scott Invitational tournament
on Tuesday, September 4th. It was a large tournament- 11 schools entered and 59 girls competed for titles. With a combined
score of 231, the Lady Bulldogs earned third place and took home their first team medal of the new season. In individual scoring, Bailey Rockers, a junior, tied for 1st place with a score of 45, and won the scorecard playoff with a birdie on hole number
one. Though the hot, sultry weather conditions made playing tough, the girls persevered and came away with great scores.
Commenting on the success of the small team, Coach Wiehl said, I am looking forward to our next tournament at Chanute
on Monday. These girls have great potential and I cant wait to see what they are going to do next. Pictured above: (l to r)

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Prairie View
dominated both sides of the
ball against Anderson County

Garnett to only 14 net yards
rushing in the second half and
thwarting the AC air game to
take the win 40-18.
Anderson Countys offense

AC managed only 11 first

Lyle & Brian Rockers,
Garnett, Kansas, own two bulls
listed in the report.
Rock Farm Angus, Garnett,
Kansas, owns two bulls listed in
the report.
Chair Rock Bison Co. LC,

Issued in both the spring and
fall, the new report features the
latest performance information
available on 6,067 sires, and is
currently accessible at www.
angussiresearch.com.
This report provides both
Angus breeders and commercial
cattle producers using Angus
genetics with accurate, predictable selection tools for improving their herd, says Sally
Northcutt, genetic research
director. Expected Progeny
Differences (EPDs) are generated from the performance data-
base of the American Angus
Association, which includes
information submitted by nearly 9,000 Angus breeders this past
year through the Associations
Beef Improvement Records
(BIR) program.
The Fall 2012 evaluation
includes a full suite of EPDs
for production, maternal, and
carcass traits. Available decision-making tools also include
$Values, the bio-economic
indexes designed to assist commercial producers in simplifying the genetic selection process.
The semi-annual analysis for
the Sire Evaluation Report utilizes over 21 million measures
used to generate nearly 62 million EPDs for the Angus breed.

It lights up my life – and home
Flipping a switch to light a
room, like turning a faucet to
get water, is a relatively recent
innovation a far cry from the
days when pink knots, whale
oil, candles, kerosene and illuminating gas were used.
Pine knots, obtained from
pitch pine trees, were very
early means of lighting, along
with dried reeds soaked in fat,
both of which gave a flickering light and smoked too much.
Bayberry or candle berry oil
and whale oil were used in a
shallow dish with a string hanging down the side to serve as a
wick. However, the candle, or
tallop dip, made of spermaceti,
tallow, wax or paraffin, was the
first generally used source or
interior illumination.
The candles usually were
made in the home by the housewife, who carefully saved every
scrap of household grease for
the purpose, accumulated tallow from slaughtered farm
animals, and knitted her own
wicks out of cotton thread.
She used special moulds which
enabled her to make as many as
a dozen candles at one time, or
else dipped wicks repeatedly in
bowls of melted tallow.
The use of candles required
candle-sticks to hold the one
candle used to illuminate small
rooms and to light the way up to
bed at night; sconces or candle
arms holding several candles
which were hung on the wall;
candle beams or chandeliers,
candle stands, and candle hold-

for local archeology information.
ers or boxes in which extra
candles and candle ends were
kept. Also needed were snuffers, known also as snuffing
irons and snits, to put out the
candles and wick trimmers
which cut off the burned ends
of the wicks.
Kerosene lamps, which came
along after the discovery of
petroleum in this country, took
the form of small single lamps,
used like a candle to light the
way around the house after
dark, as well as larger lamps
with shades to throw light down
onto a table and chandeliers
having a half dozen or more
individual kerosene lamps to
light a whole room.
When kerosene lamps were
used, someone had to service
them everyday, which meant
adding kerosene, trimming
wicks, and cleaning the glass
chimneys with rags or newspapers.
When cooking was done by
wood in fireplaces and stoves
and home lighting was provided
by candles and kerosene, each
family tried to keep some coals
burning in order to permit the
lighting of fires, lamps and
candles. If the fire went out,
someone had to run to a neighbor and borrow some coals in
a shovel or bed warmer or else
laboriously try to get a spark
with a flint and steel firemaker.
Most homes has a metal box
in which they kept scraps of
old linen called tinder, to catch
these sparks, together with the
flint and steel, with the top of
the tinder box often serving
as a candle stick. When burning coals were available, small
twisted pieces of paper called
spills were used to transfer the
flame from stove to fireplace,
candle, or lamp.
By the time illuminating gas
came along to replace everything that had been used earlier for general home lighting,
matches had been introduced,
and you lit the burners by hand,
using a waxed wick called a
taper, held in a long wood and
metal handle, to reach burners placed high on the wall or
hanging from the ceilings. The
holder also was equipped to run
off the gas when the light no
longer was needed,
Since the gas was toxic to
human beings, care had to be
exercised to see that a gas light
wasnt accidentally blown out,
thus releasing unborn gas in a
room. It was this danger that
led to the early replacement of
gas light by electricity.

Historic Places has accepted the
application of the Shelley-Tipton
House, located at 812 West Fourth,
giving Anderson County another
representative on the Register.
The application states the house
is a well preserved example of the
Italianate style. It was built c. 1871
and is a popularized version of
the Italian residences, which A.J.
Downing and A. J. Davis promoted in the mid-nineteenth century.
Two of Garnetts leading citizens
owned and lived in the house from
1877 to 1889.

Fire broke out in the Missouri
Pacific depot a little before 3
oclock. One of the employees was
in the room five minutes earlier
and noticed no fire. In five or 10
minutes, the room was ablaze,
the fire making its way through
the roof. The point at which the
fire seems to have originated was
in the northwest corner of the
wareroom where lamps have been
cleaned and filled for many years.
There was also an oil tank located
here. The flames spread so rapidly
to the ticket office where a door
opens at this point that but little
of the office equipment could be
removed. It was a near total loss
of building and contents as often
occurs, on account of the fact that
the wareroom was oil soaked at
this point and all about were piled
bundles of copies of railroad documents and flammable material.
A.M. Osborn of Washington
Township met with a heavy loss
yesterday afternoon. Mr. Osborn
has some splendid milk cows, and
nine of them got into a strip of
cane. They were not in the cane
more than five minutes, yet before
he could get to them, eight of the
cows were down. He got the other
one out. He saved one, maybe two.
In less than half an hour, the
other six were dead. The cane
was of the first growth and the
death of the cows was a surprise.
It is generally supposed that second-growth cane is poisonous to
stock while green but it was not
thought first-growth cane would
kill them.

Are you seeking a safer investment?
In Hebrews 13:8 we read,
Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.
I cannot say that statement is
true about myself or anyone
else I know. The fact is we are
encouraged to embrace change
and are taught change is necessary. We love to change the
exterior things, our clothes,
hair style, job and even the
clock twice a year so we can
have more leisure time.
Just like everyone else I
have embraced change, fought
against change, given into
change and even quit things
because of change. Jesus Christ
has been and will be the same
forever. In a changing world we
can trust our unchanging Lord.
The Epistle to the Hebrews
was written for special exhortation to the Hebrew readers who
had professed faith in Jesus
as the Messiah, but were now
wavering in that faith. We must
keep in mind prior to the birth
of Jesus the Jewish Christians
whole understanding was based
on Old Testament Judaism,
that is the law and the prophets. By the time this book was
written in AD 68 much of the
original believe in Christ had
began to waver and the Jewish
Christians were drifting back
Weekly
Devotional
by David Bilderback
to Old Testament beliefs.
Even though we today have
no Old Testament belief to
digress back to we do live in a
world that is changing as this
is written. Computer technology has made the world a
very small place. Everything
the world considers valuable
could be destroyed or devalued
in a matter of years or maybe
months. Every market, real
estate, stocks and securities
and livestock can be devalued.
If these things are our source of
strength and are subject to such
risk maybe we should search for
a safer investment. Anytime we
make an investment we always
want low risk and high return.
The only risk we take by receiving Jesus Christ as our Savior
is we loosen the hold on all
the things we now consider
to be our source of strength.
Christians and non-Christians
alike know what needs to be
changed in their lives. God

wants us to realize all these
things are temporary and are
subject to change.
In Philippians 3 Paul had the
following to say about personal
gain and achievement. But to
whatever was to my profit I now
consider loss for the sake of
Christ. What is more I consider
everything a loss compared to
the surpassing greatness of
knowing Christ Jesus my Lord
for whose sake I have lost all
things.
The attractive part of any
investment is the return. If we
invest our life for Jesus Christ
what are the rewards? In 1
John 5 the apostle states, God
has given us eternal life, and
this life is in his Son. He who
has the Son has life; he who
does not have the Son of God
does not have eternal life. We
will spend eternity somewhere
either with God or eternally
separated from God. Our final
destination depends on whether
we make the necessary changes
God requires.

TOPEKAKansas Governor
Sam Brownback and the
Governors Council on Fitness
hosted decision-makers from
across the State today for the
Kansas Summit on Obesity.
The daylong summit was held
in Topeka at the Ramada Inn
and included a panel discussion by state agency leaders followed by a breakout session for
the 200-plus summit attendees
to identify strategies addressing the rising rate of obesity in
Kansas.
Everyone here is looking for
ways to get people more active
within their community, so
lets act on this and not give
up, said Governor Brownback.
The obesity prevention strategies identified today will be
examined and considered by my
office, the Council on Fitness
and the Cabinet Secretaries
when we pare down our initiatives list and as were advancing
collaboration among state agencies.
This call to action for a
healthier Kansas does not rest
in Topeka. Were already seeing great plans take shape in
small and large communities
across Kansas, and those ideas
and activities were shared in
detail here today. Were committed to leading by example,
and we must remember that
improving the health of a community cant be accomplished
overnight. Lets take full advantage of the resources we have
this includes our natural
resources in the form of walking and horseback riding trails.
Im confident we can improve
the rate of obesity in Kansas
and reduce our risk for disease
by working through the ideas
presented today and continuing this discussion throughout
multiple sectors.
The Governor was joined
at the Summit by Lieutenant
Governor Jeff Colyer, M.D., and
several Cabinet members. A
morning panel included Health
and Environment Secretary
Robert Moser, M.D.; Wildlife,
Parks and Tourism Secretary
Robin Jennison; Transportation
Secretary Mike King; Aging and
Disability Services Secretary
Shawn Sullivan; Commerce
Deputy Secretary Caleb Asher;
Director of Kansas Healthy
Schools
Program
Mark
Thompson with the Kansas State
Dept of Education; and Terri
Williams, Acting Secretary for
the Juvenile Justice Authority.
More than two-thirds of
adults and almost one-third of
children in the U.S. are overweight or obese, and the rate
in Kansas is no different from
the national average. Obesity
among Kansas adults increased
from 15 percent in 1995 to 30.1
percent in 2010; in other words,
our rate has doubled in the last
15 years. Nutrition and physical
inactivity is now considered the
number two preventable cause
of death, behind tobacco use.
The state has many programs
directly or indirectly supporting obesity prevention, but we
can do more to build upon current programs or increasing

ent the National Drug Take
Back Program. The council agreed to allow the city
Marshall additional hours to
work this program, Sat., Sept.
29 between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.
He will be accepting any and
all donated medications to be
put in the proper receptacles
to be disposed of according to
DEA standards. This is to help
reduce the amount of unused
medicines remaining in the
medicine chest and to protect
our streams and water system
being contaminated by the
flushing of medicines. Please
participate in this program
rather than disposing medicines in the trash and sewer
system to help protect our
environment.
Fire Dept.: The Colony Fire
Department recently received a
grant from Phillips 66 Company
in the amount of $2,500. Chuck
Gettler, an employee of Phillips
66 Pipeline Company applied.
It was based on Gettlers hours
of community service throughout the year, which allowed
him to apply for grants for
recipients of his choice. This
company encourages their
employees to become involved
in their communities. Colony
firemen will be deciding soon
how to best apply the funds to
Colonys Department. Firemen
have been undergoing SCBA
(Self Contained Breathing
Apparatus) training. This
is provided by the Anderson
County Fire Department. They
have purchased an AED (automated external defibrillator)
with the memorial fund given
in memory of the late Bill
Michael. It will be installed at
the Crest School building.
In August Colony received
seven medical calls and twelve
fire calls. Even with the recent
rains, we are still in a severe
drought so they ask to please
remember to be cautious with
fire. Watch discarded cigarettes, barbecue grills, etc. The
burn ban is still in effect.
