THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT City commissioners voted 2-1 to commit some
$64,000 over 15 years for the
formation and execution of a
comprehensive street plan, with
an aim toward assessing and
determining priorities in local
street work and a programmed
approach to those repairs over
time.
City commissioner Greg
Gwin voted against the plan
based on its price tag, saying
the citys annual $250,000 street
budget was pretty much cut and
dried and used as needed based
on an assessment by city staff
and those funds and that effort
pretty much constituted a street
program as is.
Jason Dewald with the
Lenexa-based McClure engineering firm reviewed a proposal with commissioners, explaining a robotic process by which
company staff would drive all
30-odd miles of city streets with
special mounted camera equipment to photograph asphalt
street overlays as well as curbing and sidewalk areas and
subgrade analysis, then review
those images and other data
along with city specs on underground facilities like gas, water
and sewer lines.
You dont want to be in a
position of having to tear up
brand new overlay youve just
put down in order to fix a water
main break or something,
Dewald told commissioners.
The data and an analysis of
street priorities would yield a
concurrent plan that could then
be approached in segments
over the years, Dewald said,
with flexibility to accommodate
emergencies or changes in priorities. The $64,000 expense would
be programmed over a 15 year

KINCAID Organizers of the
Kincaid Fair are hoping to blow
up a great time at this years
event, with a carnival midway
made up of inflatable rides and
games to replace the traditional
carnival that cancelled its appearance contract earlier this year.
Otherwise, from the parade to
the queen contest to the turtle
races to the antique farm equipment show to the pie baking contest and auction and more organizers say its the same kind of
fun youve gotten used to for the
last 110 years.
A full schedule of fair events
can be found today on Page 3B of
todays Review.
The fair board of directors
pursued the inflatable carnival
approach after negotiations with
a carnival company to appear at
the 2021 fair fell through. That
company was contacted to replace
Tobys Carnival, which went out
of business after a raft of Covidrelated event cancellations.
Tobys had played the Kincaid
Fair every year since the company was formed n 1963.
A notice announcing the cancellation on the fairs website
explained the economic reality of
small town fairs and the modern
post-Covid carnival business.
Unfortunately there is a short-
age of carnival
companies
in
the Midwest,
a notice on the
KFAs website
said. This makes
it nearly impossible for small
fairs such as the
Kincaid Fair to
afford contracting a carnival
when pre-sale of
tickets require as
much as $25,000$30,000.

period, and would not include
actual costs of street and other
upgrades and repairs.
Gwin said any defined plan
would be outdated before it was
ever implemented because of
the constant need and evaluation of various street projects.
The real thing youre after
is the engineering for the projects, and thats not in this,
Gwin said. If we pave a street
and theres a pond in the middle of it, this plan is not going
to prevent that thats on the
contractor at the time.
Commissioner Cody Gettler
said a comprehensive plan
would likely also place grant
applications from the city in
better stead if and when infrastructure grants become available to small cities.
Gettler eventually made the
motion to adopt the plan as
presented by McClure, with a
second from Mayor Jody Cole.
Gwin cast the sole vote against
the measure.
Dewald said it could take
some 6 months to round out the
first elements of a plan.

Tom Young, Planning & Zoning
Director, met with the commission.
He received 2 bids for a larger generator to be placed at the Welda Sewer
station. The larger generator will run
the pumps more efficiently if power

Rural Fire
Mick Brinkmeyer, Rural Fire
Coordinator, met with the commission. He gave an update on the new

Public Comment
Janon Gordon, Welda, met with
the commission. She inquired on the
status of updating the planning and
zoning regulations regarding residing
in a recreational vehicle. The current
regulation states that no recreational

bank towns enjoy a direct
connection to Goppert
Foundation funding for various charitable endeavors in
their communities. Richard
Goppert fulfilled the role on
the board of directors his
father intended, said GSSB
President Dwight Nelson.
C.H. Goppert established
the foundation with the aim
of giving back to the towns
where his banks had made
him a wealthy man, Nelson
said. Theyve given millions
of dollars in funding for a
diverse bunch of projects.
In the local area alone,
the Goppert Foundation contributed substantial funding
to the Garnett Rec Center,
the USD 365 Automotive
Tech and HVAC & Welding
training facilities, made various contributions for equipment and facilties to the old
Anderson County Hospital,
paid for a fire suppression
system at the Little Peoples
Learning Center and pledged
a $100,000 matching grant for
construction of a new irrigation system at the Garnett
Country Club, among others.

the board of directors of the
Goppert Foundation up until
his passing.
He was a son of Kansas
City banker C.H. Goppert
who served in the U.S. Army
for two years before earning his business degree from
the University of Kansas and
becoming a certified public
accountant. He entered the
world of banking during high
school working for his father
at the Peoples State Bank of
Dodson at 85th and Prospect
and then at the Peoples
Credit Company. Richard
purchased
Metropolitan
Bank at 75th and Troost in
1964 from his family. He later
sold this bank and purchased
Goppert Bank and Trust
which he then sold in 1985.
Additional Missouri banks
were added and later became
Goppert Financial Bank with
locations in Pleasant Hill,
Norborne, Lathrop, Holt,
and Lawson.
In 1999 he
purchased the Garnett State
Savings Bank in Kansas,
also from the familys holdings. Additional banks were
acquired in Colony, Helpler,
Walnut, Pomona, Ottawa,
St. Paul, and Girard. These
banks have since merged
into Goppert State Service
Bank.

Garnett Cemetery.
Colony Christian Church Pauls Intense Message
Darren McGhee gave the
Communion
Meditation
titled "Reflect". After the 9/11
attacks that killed 2977, the
churches were filled the following Sunday. But it didn't
take long for people to go back
to their worldly ways. Often
times, our memories are short
if we don't have written documentation to reflect back on it
often. With the death of Jesus,
we have the Bible as a historical record. God knew that
we were inclined to forget, and
communion was established to
help us remember the sacrifice that he made for us. There
is something deeply spiritual
that occurs when communion
is taken in the right spirit. (Ref:
1 Corinthians 10:16; John 6:5556)
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon on "Paul's Intense
Message". Whereever Paul
preached, people either got
saved, or got mad, and the
evil came out where it could
be dealt with. There are three
important points to his teachings. 1. The message, 2. The
intensity, 3. The gravity. The
message he preached was to
repent from sin, turn to God
and have faith in Jesus. Sin
puts all of us in the same boat,
and unless we repent of our sin,
we will perish. When we follow
things that detract from God,
we get farther from God and
sometimes lead others astray
with us. We must focus on the
mark we want to hit; to keep
our eyes on Jesus. Paul was
very intense with his ministry. His goal was to finish the
work that God had assigned to
him… to build God's Kingdom.
And just like Paul, we need to
sound the alarm of the enemies
coming. Satan is constantly on
the attack, so we should warn
others of this. If we don't, God
will hold us responsible for not
doing so. If they choose not to
heed our warnings, then that
is on them, but if we don't warn
them, that is on us and we'll
answer for this neglect. (Ref:
Acts 20:18-27; Luke 13:5; Isaiah
45:22; Hebrews 12:2 & 11:1;
Romans 10:17;Ezekiel 33:3-6)

We must see Jesus
for who he is
The third chapter of the gospel of John relates the story
of Nicodemus and Jesus. A
related text which does not get
a lot of attention within this
chapter is John 3:13. Jesus is
speaking and he makes the following statement, No one has
ever gone into heaven except
the one who came from heaven– the Son of Man. Certainly
Ephesians 1:20 provides us
proof that what Jesus is saying
is true. That passage speaking of the great power of God
says; That power is like the
working of his (Gods) mighty
strength, when he (God) raised
him (Jesus) from the dead and
seated him at his right hand in
the heavenly realms, far above
all rule and authority, power
and dominion, and every title
that can be given, not only
in the present age but also in
the one to come. By virtue
of being seated at Gods right
hand Jesus sits in a position of
authority from which he will
ultimately judge the living and
the dead at the final judgment.
It is very easy to read over
this text and miss the significance of what Jesus is saying here. Nicodemus only
acknowledges that Jesus is a
teacher who has come from
God. The Apostle Paul tells
us in Colossians 1:15, that, He
(Jesus) is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all
creation. We are told that we
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
were created in the image of
God. This adds some weight to
the statement Jesus has made.
Nicodemus did not see Jesus
for who he was and I doubt
most of us do. If we fail to
understand that Jesus was the
incarnation of God, which is a
theological term for the coming
of Gods Son into the world as a
human being we are making a
tragic error. God sent his Son,
the expressed image of himself
to save man from the wrath of
God. Jesus makes a very direct
statement concerning this in
Matthew 10:32-33 when he says,
Whoever acknowledges me
before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in
heaven. But whoever disowns
me before men, I will disown
him before my Father in heaven. Jesus will either be our
judge or our Savior and we
must make the choice.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, September 21, 2021
OPINION
Bush wants you to forget 9/11
While George W. Bush basks in the media
adulation available to Republicans only when
they attack conservatives in their own party, his
9/11 speech only serves to remind Americans it
was on his incompetent watch when we were
attacked in the first place.
The reformed drunk and cokehead scion of a
political dynasty Hunter Biden before Hunter
Biden Bush 43 is chairman of the board of The
Perpetual War Caucus. Members include Liz
Cheney, Lindsay Graham, and the ghost of John
McCain. The Caucus believes theres no conflict
anywhere in the world that America shouldnt
be involved in; militarily, if possible.
His ill-conceived, haphazard occupation of
Iraq after picking a fight with Saddam Hussein
thrust the U.S. into the middle of a civil war
between Sunni and Shia, costing more than 4,400
lives. In comparison, the panicked and ass-backwards evacuation of Afghanistan looks like The
Miracle at Dunkirk. The Iraq War was nearly
lost as a result; saved only by General David
Petraeus Troop Surge. And we ridicule Joe
Biden for having been wrong on nearly every
foreign policy issue for the past four decades.
I voted for Bush the Younger both times; the
alternatives were ridiculously unthinkable, but
I was bothered by how his presidency ended.
Not only was he caught flat-footed and without
a plan during the Financial Crisis of 2007-08, as
he was on 9/11, leaving Americans unprotected
both times, (where was his media love when his
approval ratings plummeted into the 20s?), it
was all the self-congratulation from the Bushies.
One after another risked dislocating their
shoulders patting themselves on the back for
Keeping America Safe for the Last Seven Years
The Last Seven Years? But what about THAT
FIRST YEAR? Ahh…theres the rub.
Future students of history, if its still actually
taught, might question that in order to be kept
safe for the last seven years of an eight-year
administration, something terrible must have
happened in Year One. I often wondered how the
Todd Beamer Family or Ted Olson or thousands
of other survivors of 9/11 victims must have
regarded all the self-satisfaction.
In the speech, Bush had the unmitigated gall
to draw a connection between al-Qaeda terrorists and American political protestors (read
Trump Voters):
Dangers to our country that come not only
across borders, but from violence that gathers
within. You can bet hes not referring to dangers coming across our SOUTHERN border, if he
believes there should be a border there at all.
He goes on to tie foreign threats and domestic
conservative political discord together as children of the same foul spirit.
GUEST EDITORIAL
DAVID HICKS, Guest Writer
mmSo, if youre an NRA member who believes
there was something rotten not only in Denmark,
but Arizona, Georgia, Michigan and Wisconsin
on Election Day and afterward, you are morally
equivalent to the 19 hijackers who slashed passengers with box cutters and flew three of an
intended four airliners into our national symbols in an attempt to decapitate us politically,
militarily and financially.
So chastens George Walker Bush, who thinks
Trump voters are terrorists and never learned to
correctly pronounce the word nuclear.
Outrageous. It almost makes one regret sweating out with him the 37-day vote count in Florida
in 2000.
But Ws speech wasnt really about 9/11, or
January 6th, or voters smelling a rat in the 2020
election results and reminding the scurrying
hired help on Capitol Hill to whom they still
answer.
Its still about the Bush Family vendetta
against Donald Trump, who de-pantsed Brother
JEB time and again in 2016, and badmouthed Big
Brothers Iraq War before and after taking office.
It must gnaw at their delicate Yankee sensibilities that this Scottish billionaire barbarian who
peppers his speeches with Hell and Damn
and an occasional SOB, never colluded with
the Russians, never threatened the Ukrainian
president, and didnt organize the riot at the
Capitol.
In Shanksville, George W. Bush laid down
his paint brush long enough to wring his
hands, again, about the insolence of 72 million
Americans, many of whom voted for him and his
father, exercising their freedom of speech and
assembly guaranteed them in The Constitution
he once swore to defend. I wonder how many
family members of those incinerated or who
jumped to their deaths instead on September
11th, took solace from his words?

to depose, a governor whos just as worthless as

Spending will brand Democrats with Socialism
In the next few weeks, Republicans have an
opportunity to rebrand the Democrats as Big
Government Socialists.
This is the kind of opportunity which may
come once in a lifetime.
Every Democratic senator and representative has already voted for the outline of
Vermont Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders
$3.5 trillion Big Government Socialist bill. No
matter what lies they tell back home about
being moderates, their names are right there
on pages S6237 (Aug. 10) and H4371 (Aug. 24) of
the Congressional Record. When it mattered
there were no moderate Democrats. The only
Democrats serving in Congress were unanimously willing to vote for Big Government
Socialism.
The Big Government Socialist brand will
isolate the Washington Democrats from their
own moderates and from the rest of the country. Faced with this clear betrayal of their
values, millions of grassroots Democrats will
find themselves having to organize a moderate
wing of the Democratic Party (something Bill
Clinton tried to do as governor of Arkansas in
the 1980s).
In a number of upcoming primary elections,
there may be moderate Democratic candidates
prepared to run against the Big Government
Socialist incumbents using the $3.5 trillion
bill vote as proof the incumbents need to be

replaced.
The polling is clear and devastating for
the Big Government Socialist Democrats.
Americans in general favor Free Market
Capitalism over Big Government Socialism
by a huge margin (59 percent to 16 percent).
Among swing voters, there is an almost 5:1
advantage for Free Market Capitalism over
Big Government Socialism (82 percent to 18
percent).
Perhaps most ominous of all for the
Washington Democrats, swing voters already
believe by 69 percent to 31 percent that the $3.5
trillion Big Government Socialist bill proves
Big Government Socialists now define the
Democratic Party.
If everyone who is opposed to the $3.5
trillion bill uses the term Big Government
Socialists, within a few weeks the 50 Senate
Democrats and 220 House Democrats who
have already voted for the bill will be permanently defined as members of a repudiated
value system.
When the detailed version of the $3.5 trillion Sanders bill makes clear its wide range of
tax increases and enormous expansion of government into our personal lives, Democrats
will have two choices. They could vote no to
soften their images back home and defeat the
bill. Or they could double down, vote yes,
and hope the wave of Pelosi-Schumer-Biden
money will overcome the immense voter hostility to Big Government Socialism.
The real test for the next month falls on
Republicans and conservatives. Can they have
a disciplined focus on defining the $3.5 trillion
bill as Big Government Socialism?
Can they communicate nationally in every
state and congressional district that the
Democratic incumbents have proven they are
Big Government Socialists by voting for the
$3.5 trillion bill in August?
When facing hostile, distracting questions from leftwing television reporters, can
Republicans discipline themselves to con-
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
According to the Tax Foundation, a top corporate rate of 28%, the level that Biden favors,
would once again give the U.S. the highest
rate in the OECD at 32.3% once state level
corporate taxes are factored in as well. France
currently has the highest rate but is set to
reduce it next year.
Whats the sense in instantly making the
business environment in the United States
less favorable and giving a competitive advantage to foreign countries?
While the Way and Means draft rejects Biden
proposals such as taking the capital gains rate
all the way up to 39% (!), it does everything
it can to try to hold anyone making less than
$400,000 harmless. As The Washington Post
puts it, The efforts are designed to avoid even
the appearance of affecting middle- and lower-income households.
A very special thank you to the Garnett Parks
Department for the excellent care given the
Garnett cemetery this past summer. Our local
cemetery grounds have never looked better.
Again, a very special thank you.
Heres where Biden went wrong. Any time
a mandate requires or prohibits something,
there will always be pushback. Considering
the mindset of many of the anti-vaxxers, Biden
could have more easily achieved his desired
result if he simply announced that since every
American citizen has had the opportunity to
get vaccinated, no further vaccinations would
be given except to illegal aliens. Can you imagine the uproar and protests from all the people in their MAGA hats demanding America
first? Theyd be having mass vaccination clinics
to try to deplete the supply. Problem solved.
Unfortunately as it is now there are far too
many people wiling to die a horrible death from
Covid rather than get vaccinated because somebody on the blue team told them too.
A recent book was written by one of the victims
of the gymnastics sex scandal called What is
the value of a little girl? Perhaps we shouldnt
ask the American people, especially the churches, since theyve killed 30 million of them since
1973. What is the value of a little girl, America?

Dems cant tax enough to pay for their ambitions
Benjamin Franklin was right about death
and taxes, but new taxes only become inevitable when a Democrat is elected president, and
here we are.
The House Ways and Means Committee
released an outline of tax proposals to offset President Bidens jaw-dropping spending
plans, and its the expected assortment of tax
increases on business and the affluent that
Democrats like to pretend can fund a social
welfare state of the sort that Bernie Sanders
has long pined and advocated for.
The individual tax rate would increase
from 37% to 39.6%, the capital gains rate from
20% to 25%, and the corporate tax rate from
21% to 26.5 %, among sundry other provisions befitting the hideously complex U.S. tax
regime.
Its a sign of the scope of Biden plans that
the committee version represents a step back
from his tax proposals, yet still clocks in at an
enormous $2.2 trillion in estimated new revenue over ten years.
The corporate taxes are particularly noxious. Democrats love the politics of taxing corporations, based on the lazy and wrongheaded
idea that the corporate tax is the way to stick
it to executives and shareholders. To the contrary, if businesses are taxed at a higher rate,
they have less resources available the capital
investments that improve worker productivity over time. This ultimately means lower
wages for workers.
It is telling that no one is talking about
going back up to the pre-Trump rate of 35%.
in Afghanistan and cant get out because theyll
get killed if they stick their heads out of the
caves theyre hiding in. This is about the worst
thing Ive ever seen in this country. Thank you.
This is where the Democrats are willing to
talk the talk about a cradle-to-grave welfare
state, but not walk the walk. There can be no
European-style welfare state, at least not sustainably so, without European-style taxes.
The dirty secret about the Scandinavian
countries that the left constantly holds up as
a model is that they arent afraid to tax the
middle class. These alleged models of social
justice tax more than we do and tax much
more broadly, realizing that taxing the rich
and corporations isnt enough to fund extensive and generous social programs.
The Tax Foundation calculates that if the
U.S. had a tax system comparable to Denmark,
we would be taxing all income over $70,000 at
55.9%, Denmarks top rate.
The Ways and Means tax hikes would, sure
enough, create Denmark-like rates. As Robert
Frank of CNBC notes, the combined state and
federal top tax rates in New York City would
be 61.2%, in California 59.7%, and in New
Jersey 57.2%. But the rates wouldnt reach
down into the middle class. In fact, Democrats
from high state taxes are determined to raise
the cap on federal tax deductions for state and
local taxes — limited in Donald Trumps tax
reform — to reduce the tax bite on their relatively affluent constituents.
Maybe dont increase taxes in the first
place?

amounts of money while their slender majorSEE LOWRY ON PAGE 5A

How about going to the circus?
Wow! Would you believe going to

A much bigger circus was held
on the South side of the South

go watch the animals be watered

stantly point out that the $3.5

Government Socialism?
When face-to-face with
Democratic incumbents, can
the Republicans muster the
courage and discipline to stick
to facts and hammer away that
on this date you voted for a
$3.5 trillion Big Government
Socialist Bill and that makes
you a Big Government
Socialist?
Finally, can Republican
Party officials, activists, and
candidates focus on communicating that Democrats have
become Big Government
Socialists and that the old
moderate Democratic Party
has been replaced by a new
radical party?
These votes in favor of Big
Government Socialism have
given Republicans the opportunity of a lifetime to brand the
Democratic Party so it becomes
a minority for a generation or
more.
The test now is on the
Republican side and in the
conservative movement to
see if they can rise to the opportunity.

Last Friday, Miss Ruth
Rudisill and some of the younger children had a narrow
escape. Miss Ruth was preparing to iron the clothes and was
generating the gas in a gasoline
smoothing iron, which she had
placed on the kitchen range.
By some means, the gasoline
caught fire and Ruth caught
up the small children and ran
out of the house and into the
yard, calling to her parents,
who had just started to town,
but had gone only a short distance. Mr. and Mrs. Rudisill
quickly returned to the house
and he ran to the kitchen door.
Looking in he saw that the
gasoline was still burning and
so continued a few minutes.
Then there was an explosion
which could have been heard a
mile. Four window lights were
blown out and the sash was
broken and the iron wrecked.
Three holes were made in the
little gasoline tank on the iron
and the top of the tank was
blown off. The top of the stove
jumped up and the lid fell in.
Fortunately, nobody was hurt.
Miss Ruths experience should
teach others to very careful in
the use of a gasoline smoothing
iron.

Lancers win thrilling shootout
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MORAN – Eight-man football
teams can often light up the
scoreboard but it isnt often that
a team comes within a couple of
scores of the century mark and
that is exactly what happened
as the Crest Lancers exploded
offensively for an 86-50 victory
on the road against Marmaton
Valley Wildcats last Monday,
September 13.
All of the damage was done
on the ground for the Lancers.
The team rushed for 683
yards on 63 attempts and
scored all 11 touchdowns on
the ground.
Holden Barker toted the ball
27 times for an impressive 397
yards and 6 touchdowns.
Quarterback Ethan Godderz
tacked on 172 yards of his own
on just 16 attempts and 3 scores
and Avery Blaufuss was the
third Lancer over the century
mark with 15 rushes for 113
yards and 2 touchdowns.
Conversely, virtually all the
damage done by Marmaton
Valley was through the air.
Wildcats
quarterback
Garrett Henderson connected
on 12 of 18 passes for 322 yards
and 5 touchdowns.
Jaedon Granere was the
recipient of the majority of the
completions as he ammassed
10 catches for 255 yards and 4
touchdowns.
Defensively, Barker led the
Lancers with 12 stops and 2
fumble recoveries on the night.
Karter Miller and Ty Chambers
helped out with 11 tackles each
on the evening.
Crest Lancers notch second win
of the week on the gridiron
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
MELVERN – It was their second game in a matter of 5 days
and after jumping out to a huge
early lead it appeared fatigue
set in during the Crest Lancers
56-34 win over Marais des
Cygnes Valley on Friday night.
Crest jumped out to a huge
30-0 lead at intermission before
MDCV outscored Crest 34-26
over the final two quarters.
We got tired there in the
second half due to it being our
second game this week, Crest
head coach Nick McAnulty
stated. The boys fought the
entire game and I could not
have been more proud of the
effort tonight.
McAnulty went on to praise
his defensive backs which were
torched for over 300 yards in a
game on Monday night, Our
secondary guys that struggled
on Monday against Marmaton
Valley were huge tonight in
pass coverage and played
great. They worked hard all
week in practice and it showed
tonight.
Praise continues to go to the
offensive ground attack.
Our offensive line was dominant tonight. When we needed
to chew clock late in the game,
our line did a great job of creating space even when they knew
we were going to run right at
them, McAnulty added.
Holden Barker continued
his dominance on the ground
rushing for 267 yards on 27 car-
ries and 6 touchdowns. Barker
has now ammassed 827 yards
rushing and 14 touchdowns
just a third of the way through
the season.
Ethan Godderz tacked on 120
yards on 22 carries and one
touchdown.
Karter Miller had just
2 catches on the night for 38
yards but they were both key
receptions.
Karter (Miller) had two
diving catches, both in the 4th
quarter, that kept our drives
alive, McAnulty stated.
Godderz led the way with
11 tackles defensively. Avery
Blaufuss was second on the
team with 7 stops.
Lady Lancers volleyball has been
battle tested last two weeks
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
Its been a busy couple of
weeks on for the Crest Lady
Lancers volleyball squad as
they have compiled a 6-8 record
against some stiff competition.
On Tuesday, September 7,
they traveled to Pleasanton and
although they dropped two out
of the three matches, Lancer
head coach Abigail Hermreck
doesnt feel the results necessarily showed how well her
girls played.
We played much better than the score shows,
Hermreck stated in reference
to losses to St. Paul (18-25 and
16-26) and to Southern Coffey
County (21-25, 15-25).
Against St. Paul the Lancers
had their chances.
We were up by 4 or more
several times in the match but
had a few small hiccups as our
passing fell apart, Hermreck
said. This was only the second
outing of running a new rotation and we are still working
on a more consistent offense.
The day ended in positive
fashion with a three set win
over Pleasanton (25-12, 17-25,
25-20).
It was a nice way to end the
evening. The girls played hard
and really pulled together for
the win. Hermreck added.
Some of the top performers were Junior McKenna
Hammond with 12 kills and a
team high 24 digs defensively.
Fellow junior Brinley
McGhee garnered 17 digs, good
for second on the team.
Sophomore Kayla Hermreck
led the team with 32 kills, 7 ace
serves and 6 blocks and also
added 16 digs.
Then
on
Saturday,
September 11, the Lancers traveled to Iola and faced off against
some much larger schools.
Riverton dominated the
Lancers in two sets, 15-25 and
12-25. Crest downed Iola 25-21,
22-25, 25-12 and lost a tough one
to Parsons 20-25, 22-25, 25-22.
Despite the results on the
court, the Lancers head coach
couldnt have been more
pleased with her squad.
It was a fantastic day for
the Lady Lancers, coach
Hermreck started. We competed against bigger schools
and gained confidence to move
forward. I am very proud of
the girls for not backing down
and working hard together. We
were able to run our offense
well at times and scrapped on
defense. It was exactly what
we needed to realize our potential.
Hammond filled up the stat
sheet on the day. She finished
the day with 100% serving, 2
aces, 15 kills, 19 digs, 3 blocks
and led the team with 20 assists
and in serve receive passing.
Hermreck again led the way
as she led the Lancers with 30
kills, 5 blocks and 6 ace serves
in addition to 11 assists and 13
digs.
McGhee led the team with 30
digs.
Next up for the Lancers
was their first league night
of the season last Tuesday,
September 14. Heading into
play, Coach Hermreck was
hoping her squad would continue their fearless play from
the Iola Tournament. They did
exactly that in sweeping all
three games on the day.
The Lady Lancers defeated
Northeast Arma in the first
game 25-20, 18-25, 25-18. They
also earned two set wins over
both Pleasanton (25-23, 25-22)
and Jayhawk-Linn (26-24,
25-14).
In the final game of the night,
McGhee rattled off 10 straight
points when she was serving
to firmly put the Lancers in
control.
The experience of tougher
competition really showed.
We had a calm demeanor and
never really got rattled, Coach
Hermreck said in reference to
battling back from 7 points
down in one of the sets.
Senior Anna Hermreck finished the day with 6 kills, 2
blocks and 8 digs.
Hermreck added, Those
kills came at very crucial times
in their respective matches.
Lindsey Godderz played
well on both sides of the net
with 23 digs and 7 ace serves.
McGhee continues her
strong play defensively by leading the team with 26 digs.
Hammond set up her hitters all night by leading the
team with 22 assists and in
serve receive passing. She also
accounted for 24 digs and 16
kills.
Hermreck led the offensive attack with 30 kills and 7
ace serves. She also tallied 21
assists and 17 digs.
Last Saturday, September
18, the Lancers dropped 2 of
their 3 matches but Coach
Hermreck still seeks out the
positives.
Overall the day was a great
opportunity to continue learning and growing as a team, she
said. Having mental toughness throughout an entire set
isnt an easy task. We had just
enough of a breakdown causing us to suffer a narrow loss.
Yates Center opened up by
shutting down the Lancers
offense in a two set victory (1725, 18-25).
The Lancers rebounded
with a win over Coffeyville
(25-16, 25-21) before closing out
the day with a tough loss to
Marmaton Valley (21-25, 25-14,
20-25).
Hammond had one of the
better performances on the day
as she served 10 straight points
against Coffeyville. She connected on all 43 of her serves in
the matches, led the team with
7 aces and 24 assists and also
had 18 kills and 28 digs.
McGhee had an incredible
51 digs on the day to far outpace anyone on the team.
As usual Hermreck filled up
the stat sheet with a team leading 39 kills to go along with 21
assists, 18 digs and 5 blocks.
Next up for the Lancers is a
pair of matches at home tonight
against Oswego and Altoona.

Depleted Vikings blank Wildcats on the road
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
ALLEN – Central Heights
had to make the trip to play
Northern Heights without
some of their key players,
notably their starting quarterback and leading rusher, Tony
Detwiler, but still overcame
the losses en route to a 31-0 victory over Northern Heights.
Luke Brown replaced
Detwiler starting for the
Vikings at quarterback.
Brown started the first couple
of games on the offensive line.
Brown didnt put up any
significant stats, completing 2
of 3 passes for 1 yard and also
tossed an interception but he
orchestrated a run game that
was dominate throughout the
evening.
Colton Caswell and Dominic
Lopez picked up the majority
of yards for the offense.
Caswell had just 5 carries
but gained 190 yards and
scored 3 touchdowns.
Lopez was the workhorse
with 16 carries for 155 yards
and 2 scores.
Lopez made big play after
big play defensively as well
with a team high 21 tackles.
Caswell was the only other
Vikings in double figures with
11 stops.
Defensively Baker Moore
caught more passes on the day
then the Vikings quarterback
had completions on the night..
Moore picked off 3 passes (the
Vikings only had 2 completions in the game) to go along
with 9 tackles on the evening.
AC XC Girls 1st, boys finish 2nd at Parsons
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
PARSONS – The Anderson
County girls finished 1st with
a score of 24, just edging Caney
(31 points) to finish atop the
standings. The boys finished
in 2nd place (42 points) behind
Iola (25).
There were just 16 varsity
girl runners on the afternoon.
Addie Fudge (8:19, 4th place)
paced the Lady Bulldogs.
Kassie Mains (8:31, 6th), Orra
Lutz (9:14, 9th), Emily Moyer
(9:59, 10th) and Emily Coles
(12:31, 16th) were all instrumental in winning the gold.
The boys race had 32 runners on the day. Anderson
County and Iola accounted for
the top 7 finishes.
Kasen Fudge (6:41, 3rd
place), Tucker Nelson (6:47, 5th
place) and Landon Kraft (6:59,
7th place) all finished inside
the top 10.
Nathan Schmit (7:12) finished in 12th, Brodie Wiesner
(8:13) and Easton Wettstein
(8:14) finished 21st and 22nd
respectively.
understatement. We are still
only coming into mid-season
form and that is precisely what
our system is designed to do.
Hunter Johnson put together
his finest race of his career
finishing 2nd place overall in
that race leading his team to
4th place. On the girls side, Lily
Burkdoll continues making a
name for herself as a 6th grader
in the 7th grade races by finishing 5th overall. In an 8th grade
race featuring 166 runners,
having two boys medal (11th
and 22nd) is another incredible feat. For high school, we
did not run full teams but still
put forth some incredible individual efforts which will pay
dividends later down the road.
The trio of Taryn Compton,
Emma Cubit, and Melaney
once again put themselves in
great position from the start
and all medaled with 6th, 7th,
and 16th place finishes. The
boys had two more incredible
freshman performances from
6th place Connor Burkdoll and
8th place Cody Hammond. With
a few more meets left before the
championship meets, there is
still a lot of fine tuning to be
done and progress to be made.
Next week is not the end, it is
another opportunity.

AC football rallies for first win
BY KEVIN GAINES
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT – Three key plays
sparked the Anderson County
Bulldogs first win on Saturday
as they knocked off Santa Fe
Trail 21-16.
Anderson County hit paydirt first on a 66 yard touchdown run but SFT responded
on their ensuing drive with a
30 yard score of their own to tie
the game at 7.
Early in the second quarter
the Bulldogs were driving and
were set up at the SFT 21 yard
line when AC threw an interception which was returned by
SFT to the Bulldogs 20 to set up
their next score which would
put them up 13-7 after a blocked
extra point.
The Bulldogs would break
loose again, this time from 49
yards out, and after a successful point after try they were
clinging to a 14-13 lead heading
into intermission.
It would be SFT who would
jump back into the lead after
kicking a field goal to take
a 16-14 lead, which is where
things would stand until the
fourth quarter.
Midway through the fourth,
the Bulldogs would be stopped
on a 3rd and 2 from the 49 yard
line and instead of going for it
they elected to punt.
It turned out to be a brilliant decision as the SFT punt
returner muffed the ball at
the 10 yard line, eventually
it would be the Bulldogs that
jumped on the loose ball at the
3 yard line to set up a one play
scoring drive to take the lead
for good, 21-16.

Free publicity can mean big bucks
Getting free publicity, the
kind that can illuminate your
business no matter its size to a
new range of possible customers and generate thousands or
even hundreds of thousands of
dollars in new sales, is just
pretty cool.
Thats why you should
devote a little time this week to
brainstorming how your business can generate some advertising that is sought out by
media and that you dont have
to pay for.
Its done all the time. Read
the newspaper or magazines.
Watch local television (especially the morning shows) listen to your local radio station
or your National Public Radio
affiliate. Editors and broadcast producers have to fill
hours and hours of news space
every day or week, and theyre
always looking for the opportune source that rounds out
coverage on a timely topic or
one thats just flat out interesting. Here are some tips think
about how they apply to your
business:
1) You may not be a professional writer, but a press
release can be as simple as
a couple of paragraphs about
what your business is doing
thats newsworthy are you

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, September 21, 2021
LOCAL
A Farmer's Pet
Kim Baldwin, McPherson
County farmer
Every so often I have the
opportunity to visit a classroom
full of elementary students and
read a book to them. More often
than not, Ive accomplished my
guest reading visits using virtual platforms that so many
are now accustomed to using.
Thanks to technology, and a
decent internet connection,
Ive been able to read to classrooms hours away from our
farm.
While the books I read vary
depending on the grade level
of students, the subject matter
and the conversations we have
following ultimately always
focus on agriculture.
Its a time I truly look forward to as it allows this former
teacher to briefly get back into
a classroom and get kids excited about reading while also
sharing our farm with them.
After reading, the students
and I spend time talking about
the story and they can ask
me questions about my farm.
While I never really know the
direction the students questions may go, I do know a lot of
elementary-aged children are
very curious about how many
dogs and cows I have on my
farm. I also know that during
every single one of my visits,
without fail, I will have a child
inquire about my favorite crop.
While I generally answer
that question diplomatically
just as a parent would if asked
who their favorite child is
the reality is that while I value
and appreciate all of the plants
we grow on our farm, I do give
one of our crops a bit more
attention than the others.
Our popcorn crop receives
a lot of my time and focus
throughout the year. Its the
smallest crop we grow based on
the total number of acres, but
its definitely the one I spend a
lot of my thoughts on.
Maybe its because weve
only grown popcorn for a
handful of years, making it the
baby of the farm. Maybe its
because it requires a bit more
attention and TLC compared to
the other crops.
Maybe its the fact that we market it directly to consumers,
which is different compared to
our other commodities.
Like a doting parent, the
popcorn is also the most photographed on our farm second
only to my own two children.
My cellphone is full of images Ive captured of this crops
milestones throughout the
growing season. From observing the small seeds getting
planted into the soil, celebrating when tiny plants emerge
from the earth, and cheering
them on as they develop and
grow larger and larger by the
day. Its all documented.
Whether its the threat of
weather in our area, making
sure the plants are getting plenty of water during the hot days
of summer, or obsessing over
the moisture content of the kernels leading up to harvest, I
definitely fret over the popcorn
a bit more as well.
I always experience a sense
of relief when we get the combine into the field and finally begin picking the corn. Im
calmed once we safely tuck the
grain away into its bin for storage until its time to send it
off to be cleaned, sorted and
bagged. And I can also breathe
easier knowing when the grain
has safely arrived at its destinations.
So, while I can honestly
say that I appreciate all of the
plants that we grow on our
farm equally as they provide
my family with the life we
have, I find myself quite fond
our little popcorn crop. It might
be the smallest, but it definitely
receives the mightiest amount
of my attention annually.

Cattle Chat: Factors influencing cow
supplementation pre- and post-weaning
MANHATTAN, Kan. A
well-balanced diet is important
in humans overall health plan.
Similarly, just as our caloric needs adjust throughout the
life cycle, nutritional fluctuations happen in the beef cow,
said the experts at Kansas
State Universitys Beef Cattle
Institute on a recent Cattle
Chat podcast.
Right after weaning, the
beef cows energy requirements
are low, said veterinarian and
BCI director Brad White.
Fellow veterinarian Bob
Larson suggested the first step
in making a nutrition plan for
the cowherd is to assess the
body condition of the cows.
By knowing the body condition, producers can either
get by with minimal supplementation for cows in good
nutritional shape, or if they are
thin, this is a good time to add
weight on them while they are
in mid-gestation and not lactating, Larson said.
For thin cows, beef cattle
nutritionist Phillip Lancaster
said the most economical way
to add weight is by turning
them out on grass while it is
still available.
Aside from the inconvenience of hauling hay and cost
of feeding supplements later in
the winter, by waiting to supplement the cows in the last
trimester of their pregnancy,
producers will have less time
to ensure that cows reach a
desired body condition by calv-
ing, Lancaster said.
However, he added, from an
efficiency standpoint, research
has shown that adding body
condition in late lactation is
improved over that of a non-lactating, or dry, cow.
If you can separate the
thin cows and their calves and
feed them away from the other
cows in the herd, that can be
an advantage, but it also takes
more work to manage that system, Lancaster said.
White added that the management strategy will be dependent on several factors on the
operation, one of which is
access to the cows.
Logistically, it may be easier to add weight on the cows
after weaning, he said.
EPA encourages individuals, businesses,
and communities to take action during
National Preparedness Month
WASHINGTON September is
National Preparedness Month,
and the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) is
encouraging individuals, businesses, and communities to
take action by following health
and safety tips to mitigate the
impacts of natural disasters.
Emergency preparedness is
especially important as the
west coast responds to wildfires, the midwest recovers
from historic flooding and
communities on the Gulf Coast
and the East Coast continue to
respond and recover from the
impacts of Hurricane Ida.
In addition to taking shortterm actions to prepare for the
impacts of natural disasters,
many communities and municipalities across the country are
planning ahead by engaging in
sustainability and resiliency
planning. Supporting emergency preparedness is one of the
many ways that the Agency
protects human health and the
environment.
From wildfires on the west,
to Hurricane Ida, to flooding in
the Midwest, climate change
is increasing the frequency
of extreme weather events,
which means an increased
need for preparedness, said
EPA Administrator Michael S.
Regan. As an agency, it is our
duty to ensure we are helping others disproportionately
impacted by these impacts,
especially those living in underserved communities. Providing
the public with information to
prepare and plan for environmental emergencies reduces
health and safety risks for individuals and their families.
Based on scientific data
and historical patterns, it is
projected that the effects of
climate change will continue to increase the frequency
of natural disasters such as
hurricanes and wildfires.
Vulnerable
communities
have an increased risk from
the impacts of climate change
and the effects associated with

natural disasters. EPA continues to work with vulnerable
communities to ensure equal
access to the decision-making
processes related to emergency
preparedness.
Individuals, businesses, and
communities can use the following tips to prepare for environmental emergencies and
disasters:

Analysis: Farm safety week yields results
By John Shutske
Since 1944, the U.S. president
has proclaimed one week of the
year to be National Farm Safety
and Health Week (NFSHW).
This year, as in others, the
governor of Wisconsin has
also done so. Marking the 78th
official observance of NFSHW,
the 2021 theme is farm safety
yields real results.
Its not coincidental that
NFSHW occurs over the third
week of September. In most
areas of the country, this time
of year is associated with the
rush involved in harvesting
crops, and the extra work necessary to prepare animals,
facilities and equipment for the
winter, as well as other tasks
to button down the farm for
pending cold weather. In addition, daylight hours are shortening, and school is back in
session. Families are busy and
those employed on the farm
are putting in long hours. Add
all these variables together and
you have the recipe for a potential farming injury or exposure
to adverse conditions that can
impact health.
It is true that farm safety
yields results. But what does
that mean? Having a safety
attitude or being intentional
about using your common
sense is not enough. A farm
is much like any other highrisk industrial workplace
involving potentially dangerous machines, tractors, highway travel and other physical
and biological hazards such
as grain bins, silos and stored
manure. And then theres the
human factor. Extremes in a
workers age whether young
or old long working hours
and resulting fatigue can make
it difficult for people to keep
themselves out of harms way.
For real results toward
improving safety on the farm,
here are five specific actions to
take:
1. BEFORE things get busy,
spend several hours carefully inspecting each piece of
machinery that will be operated, including harvesters,
tractors, trucks and other key
implements. Just as an airplanes crew inspects the airliner before okaying it to fly
across the country with passengers, follow the checklists and
other recommended steps as

Farm Equipment
StartersAlternators
outlined in each implements
operators manual. Some items
to look at carefully:
wheel and tire condition
and inflation pressures
condition of belts, chains
and other drive components
placement of safety
shields. If shields are missing, find them and put them
in place. Operating a machine
without a guard or shield while
assuming youll remember to
work around it is dangerous.
2. Get enough sleep. Though
sleeping eight hours a night
may be overly optimistic, try
to establish a healthy routine.
Start your day by a specific
time and aim to finish by a
decent time to ensure enough
sleep. Give yourself a buffer of
at least an hour or two between
then end of the workday and
bedtime. Put away the phone
and other brightly lit digital
devices; they can interfere
with sleep. Also, limit caffeine
intake as the afternoon stretches on. Caffeinated sleep is often
restless and poor quality, and
that doesnt do much to combat fatigue which is a leading
precursor to mistakes and injuries.
3. Train, educate, and demonstrate. Especially where there
are labor shortages, farmers
find themselves hiring people
with less experience and fewer
qualifications. Regardless of
your workers age, skills and
background, you must provide
hands-on training so each one
can do his or her job safely. All
machines operate a bit differently; make sure workers know
what to do and who to call if a
problem occurs. This includes
ensuring everyone has a smartphone or other device and a
working signal.
4. Light up equipment as
brightly as possible. State and
federal laws require a confusing mix of lights, flashers, turn
signals, reflectors, high-visibility tape and slow-moving-vehicle emblems. Check with your
local machinery dealer for the
latest on required lighting and
marking. When in doubt, err
on the side of over-doing it.
When moving equipment on
public roadways, if at all possible, avoid being on the roadway
after dark or in high-traffic
conditions. Part of farm safety
is avoiding hazards in the first

5. Plan. Planning might not
seem connected to farm safety
but investigations show that
serious injuries and deaths happen when people are in a hurry,
when something breaks unexpectedly, or when machines,
tools and equipment are not
equipped to operate through
the whole season. Planning
helps ensure things will go relatively smoothly. Plus, having
backup plans in place can alleviate those feelings of panic

DAR Promotes Constitution Week: September 17-23
WASHINGTON, DC The
National Society Daughters
of the American Revolution
urges Americans to reflect on
the United States Constitution
during this months annual
observance in honor this foundational document of national
governance.
There are two documents
of paramount importance
to American history: the
Declaration of Independence,
which forged our national
identity, and the United States
Constitution, which set forth
the framework for the federal government that functions to this day, said DAR
President General Denise
Doring VanBuren. While
Independence Day is a well-recognized and beloved national
holiday, fewer people know
about Constitution Week, an
annual commemoration of the
living document that upholds
and protects the freedoms central to our American way of
life.
The DAR initiated the obser-
Webinars
to be held
all week on
farm safety
Agriculture is known as one
of the most dangerous industries in America and abroad.
According to the National
Institute of Occupational Safety
and Health, approximately
2 million full-time workers
were employed in production
agriculture in the U.S. in 2018.
About 100 agricultural workers suffer a lost-work-time injury every day. National Farm
Safety and Health Week has
been recognized during the
third week of September for 77
years to help bring attention to
the risks of working agriculture.
This year, AgriSafe, an international nonprofit representing
health and safety professionals,
has daily webinars for agricultural health and safety professionals, healthcare providers,
producers and farmworkers.
The organizations partners at
the National Education Center
for Agricultural Safety coined
this years theme, Farm Safety
Yields Real Results, reminding all of us that safety is a vital
part of agriculture.
Visit https://www.agrisafe.org/event/national-farmsafety-and-health-week/ for
free web seminars all week in
regards to farm safety.
vance in 1955, when the service organization petitioned
the U.S. Congress to dedicate
September 1723 of each year
to the commemoration of
Constitution Week. Congress
adopted the resolution, and
on August 2, 1956, President
Dwight D. Eisenhower signed
it into Public Law #915. The
celebrations goals are threefold: to encourage the study of
the historical events that led to
the framing of the Constitution
in September 1787; to remind
the public that the Constitution
is the basis of Americas great
heritage and the foundation for
its way of life; and to emphasize
U.S. citizens responsibility to
protect, defend and preserve
the U.S. Constitution.
DAR has been the foremost
advocate for the awareness,
promotion and celebration of
Constitution Week. The annual
observance provides innumerable opportunities for educational initiatives and community outreach, two mission
areas of crucial importance to
the National Society. By fostering knowledge of, and appreciation for, the Constitution and
the inalienable rights it affords
to all Americans, DAR helps to
keep alive the memory of the
men and women who secured
our nations foundational liberties.
In communities across
America, Daughters will erect
hundreds of community displays, sponsor municipal proclamations, ring bells and stage
programs to raise awareness of
the Constitutions tenets and
importance. We invite everyone to join us in celebrating
this powerful document, which
has enabled our democracy
within a republic for more
than two centuries. We hope
that all Americans will learn
more about the Constitution
and its immense impact on our
nation, VanBuren said.
One of the largest patriotic womens organizations in
the world, DAR has more than
190,000 members in approximately 3,000 chapters across
the country and several foreign countries. DAR members
promote historic preservation,
education and patriotism via
commemorative events, scholarships and educational initiatives, citizenship programs,
service to veterans, meaningful
community service and more.
