IMMUNIZATION POLICY
Armed with the belief — backed by scientific evidence — that immunizations are a
child’s best protection against diseases such as measles, polio and whooping cough,
the five partner physicians who comprise the Sabetha Family Practice Clinic have
decided to employ a zero-tolerance immunization policy for patients with children.
Sabetha Clinic has
‘obligation’ to require
childhood immunization,
doctors say
P
AMBER DETERS
hysicians at the Sabetha Family Practice Clinic have announced a new policy — the
result of years of concern and research,
and months of discussion — in May of
this year. The policy officially goes into
effect Friday, July 1.
Under the new policy, to continue
receiving outpatient care at the Sabetha
Family Practice Clinic, children must
be up-to-date with required immunizations per the Centers for Disease
Control recommended standard immunization schedule.
“For a long time, we’ve thought this
was an important issue and stance,” the
SFP Clinic physicians said. “We just
finally decided it was time, and made
the decision [to set the policy] about
six months ago.”
“It’s the right thing to do,” said Dr.
Gregg Wenger, SFP physician.
The only exception to SFP immunization policy is for patients
who have a “true medical contraindication” to a vaccine,
and the contraindication
must have been evaluated
and approved by a SFP
Clinic physician.
A true medical
contraindication
could include
medical conditions or treatments that
result in a
c ompro mised
immune system, or an allergy to the
vaccine. The doctors described this possibility as “very rare.”
The doctors stressed the point that the
new policy applies only to outpatient care
at the SFP Clinic, not Sabetha Community Hospital, at which all patients who
need care will receive it.
The facts — who, what, when and
where — of the policy itself are simple.
And, while the “why” is the question that
requires more explaining, SFP physicians
Dr. Wenger, Dr. Kevin Kennally, Dr.
James Longabaugh, Dr. Kerstin Glynn
and Dr. Christian Tramp say it is just as
simple: to keep people safe.
“We feel we are responsible for the
health of this community,” Dr. Kennally
said. “We feel an obligation [to take this
stance], and we are backed by good science.”
“The concept that Sabetha citizens
would not be exposed to rare diseases is
not accurate,” Dr. Longabaugh said. “We
live in global society, and a very global
community.”
“The overwhelming scientific literature
supports immunizations,” Dr. Glynn said.
“In almost all cases, a standard pediatric
immunization schedule is indicated.”
“We would love to change the hearts
and minds of those who do not vaccinate,
and we have tried, but some continue to
disregard the dangers,” Dr. Tramp said.
“Obviously, people are free to make their
own decisions and we cannot force anyone into this.”
The new policy is about setting a standard for the Sabetha Family Practice
Clinic outpatient practice, Dr. Tramp
said.

Done…

AMBER DETERS
Schools should still be open
on July 1, if the Kansas Supreme
Court approves of the Kansas Legislature’s most recent fix to school
finance equitability, one portion
of the Gannon v. State of Kansas
school finance case.
In a May 27 ruling, the Kansas
Supreme Court threatened that if
the Legislature did not produce
a constitutional finance plan by
June 30 — the last day of the fiscal
year — schools would be unable to
operate as of July 1.
Following a two-day special
session, the Legislature on Friday, June 23, approved a bipartisan school finance equity plan
— Substitute for House Bill 2001.
The measure was the work of both
aisles, and was supported by both
the Gannon plaintiffs and the Governor. The measure was approved
116-6 in the House and 38-1 in
the Senate.
Governor Sam Brownback on
Monday, June 27, signed Substitute
for House Bill 2001.
“I am pleased to sign this bill,
ensuring that Kansas schools remain open,” Brownback said. “As
I said when I called the special session, our focus was on making sure
the Kansas Supreme Court did not
close schools over 1 percent of the
$4 billion spent on education in
Kansas.”
For local school district Prairie
Hills USD No. 113, this legislation’s
impact is minimal, adding an estimated $12,676 of state aid for the
district’s Supplemental General
budget. Superintendent Todd Evans said it is his understanding that
this additional money will “not
be new money to the district” but
rather taxpayer relief of approximately .1 mill.
Late Monday, following Brownback’s signing, the State and Plaintiff Districts jointly requested that
the Court enter an order acknowledging that the Legislature has currently satisfied the Court’s orders.
If granted by the Court, the joint
request would ensure schools remain open and operating after
June 30.
Weighing In
Superintendent Todd Evans said
he feels positive about HB 2001.
“There was a proposal out there
to obtain part of the money from
school districts’ general funds,” Evans said. “I am appreciate that the
legislature did not take this avenue,
because no only would it have had
a negative financial impact on our

David Henry
David John Henry, 70, died Wednesday, June 22, 2016, after a 5-1/2
year bout with cancer.
David was born Nov. 11, 1945, in Seneca to Bernard and Rachel
(Waller) Henry. On July 23, 1966, he married Mary Milne. They
celebrated an early 50 years of marriage this year in Jasper, Ark., on
a family vacation.
Dave grew up on a farm near Seneca and attended Sts. Peter and Paul
Catholic School, where his passion for football began. He graduated
with the class of 1963. After high school, he attended K-State until the
death of his brother Hank in a skiing accident. He left school to work
in Kansas City and then Topeka until his old high school coach, Matt
May, approached him to play football at the St. Mary of the Plains
College in Dodge City. At the end of his junior year, he was called to
report for basic training in the Army. He was ready to go to Vietnam
when the war ended. He went back to St. Mary of the Plains to finish
school and graduated in 1969.
Coach Henry’s first teaching and coaching job took him back to
his alma mater, Sts. Peter and Paul. After only one year there, he left
in 1970 to accept a job at Jackson Heights as the P.E. teacher, head
football and head boys’ track coach. He remained the head football
and boys’ track coach through 1994.
Several of his football teams earned playoff bids, and the Cobras
finished second in the State on two occasions – 1971 and 1983. David’s
teams always played hard, they were always fundamentally sound and
respected by opposing coaches. He signed on to be an assistant football
coach from 1996 until 2006, and also served as the Athletic Director
for Jackson Heights from 1997 until 2007. David served as an assistant
basketball coach off and on throughout his career at Jackson Heights,
including when the Lady Cobras won the Class 1A State Basketball
Tournament and the Grand State Championship in 1976.
These were not the only contributions David Henry made to Jackson Heights. After David retired from teaching in 2007, he took on a
school bus route from 2007 until he finally retired in the fall of 2015.
From 1994 through the fall of 2015, David took great pride in caring
for the school grounds and football field, which is now named “Dave
Henry Football Field.” His passion for the school was evident in the
beautiful field and how he cared for the flowers that he planted.
David is preceded in death by his parents, Ben and Rachel; and
brothers, Leonard, John, Elmer and Hank.
He is survived by his wife Mary; sisters, Teresa Meyer, Grace Buessing and Gladys Deters; brothers, Daniel, Ron, Mark and Ed; daughters
and sons-in laws – all married to David’s former football players
– Volora (Matt) Hanzlicek of Sabetha, Ceela (Jaime) Schumann of
Fairview, and Ericka (Josh) Watkins of Holton; and nine grandchildren, Akaylah (Erik) Jaeke, Alaina (Will) Hickman, Gaven, Kegan,
Ian, Isabell and Melinna; and one great grandchild, Afton.
For the past six years, David has been battling cancer, but always
had a positive attitude. This was the same attitude that he displayed
as a coach, a teacher and a mentor to everyone who crossed his path.
David would tell you “it is the Cobra Way of doing things!” You
would often hear him say, “Red eyeballs and snot bubbles,” “When
you are on two yard line you have to punch it in!” and he was famous
for eyeball kisses. He loved country music and playing his guitar for
his girls to sing.
Mass of Christian Burial was at 11:30 a.m. Monday, June 27, at St.
Augustine Catholic Church of Fidelity, south of Sabetha. The immediate family greeted friends and family in a visitation at Jackson
Heights High School Gymnasium from 2 to 4:30 p.m. Sunday, June
26. The interment was made in the St. Augustine Church Cemetery.

Kenneth Alfred Schuster
Kenneth Alfred Schuster, 93, died on Tuesday, June 14, 2016,
in Detroit, Mich., after a short illness.
Kenneth was born in Detroit on May 18, 1923, to Alfred and
Frieda Winkler Schuster. He attended business high school
in Detroit and then served in the Marines during World War
II. Ken was stationed in San Diego, Calif. and Hawaii. When he
completed his tour of the service, he returned to Michigan and had a
job waiting for him at the Wabash Railroad. He spent 46 years with
the railroad, working his way up from the mailroom to the National
Accounts Manager upon his retirement from Norfolk Southern. He
enjoyed travels to many part of the world and appreciated his church
family in Beverly Hills, Mich., in his retirement years.
The Bern-Sabetha area became special to him when he visited here
after meeting and marrying the former Wilma Wenger in 1946 at
San Diego, Calif. Every year, there was always a reunion in Kansas
to celebrate the anniversary of her parents, Jake and Stella Wenger.
The close-knit extended family and multiple generations would come
from all over the country to attend. Wilma died in 1988.
Sabetha was so important to Ken that he brought his second wife,
Mabel, here to visit and introduce her to this part of his life so that she
could understand what it meant to him. Mabel died in 2014.
Sabetha, Bern and the Wenger family were held close to Ken’s heart,
so that he specifically requested his final resting place be in the country cemetery at the Apostolic Christian Church, southeast of Bern.
Survivors include his daughters, Loree (Stanley) Schuster Todd of
Philadelphia, Penn., and Karen (John) Schroeder of Evanston, Ill.; four
grandchildren, Jacob and Dustin Todd, and Matthew and Michael
Schroeder; and a sister, Dorlene Delezenne of Michigan.
Graveside services conducted by John Lehman were held Thursday,
June 23, at the Bern Apostolic Christian Cemetery. A later memorial
service will be held in July in Beverly Hills, Mich. Popkess Mortuary
of Sabetha was in charge of local arrangements.

EDITORIAL
Immunize them all?
Should we immunize our children? This wasn’t even a question my
husband and I discussed before having our first child… or our second
child, or our third. Not immunizing was never a consideration for us.
When watching movies or television shows based in times prior
to invention of vaccines, I am always intrigued by the diseases that
strike — what they are called, what the symptoms are and, above
all else, the fear that accompanied them wherever they would go.
I always follow up the little I learn with an investigation into the
disease — where and who it struck, what we call it now, etc. It never
ceases to amaze me how a disease once so feared is now something
that I have to research to know what it is. I might know the name,
but I don’t know anything about it past that. I don’t know much, if
anything, about many of these diseases, because I haven’t needed to
fear them. This isn’t by accident. It is the result of hundreds of years
of scientific research and discovery. In some cases, it is the result of
effective medical treatments. In others, it is the result of preventive
treatments — vaccines.
Review on Page 7A the list of diseases — diphtheria, measles and
polio, to name a few — for which we immunize our children in the
United States. You might recognize the names, but did you recognize the causes, the symptoms, the complications? Did you notice
“death” listed as a possible complication on almost all of them? I do
not believe a child, or anyone else, should die from a disease that so
easily could have been prevented. Unfortunately, in many parts of the
world, people still are — not by choice, but because of a lack of one.
Yet — by choice — there are those among us who do not vaccinate
their children. In doing so, they put not only those children at risk,
but also many others who did not have a choice — babies too young
to be fully immunized, for example. I do not agree with that choice.
In keeping with that belief, I fully support the Sabetha Family Practice Clinic physicians in implementing a “zero tolerance” childhood
immunization policy.
Immunize them all? Yes, I believe so.

VACCINES
Myth vs. Fact
Myth 1: Better hygiene and sanitation will make diseases disappear
– vaccines are not necessary. FALSE
Fact 1: The diseases we can vaccinate against will return if we stop
vaccination programs. While better hygiene, hand washing and
clean water help protect people from infectious diseases, many
infections can spread regardless of how clean we are. If people are
not vaccinated, diseases that have become uncommon, such as
polio and measles, will quickly reappear.
Myth 4: Vaccine-preventable diseases are almost eradicated in my
country, so there is no reason to be vaccinated. FALSE
Fact 4: Although vaccine preventable diseases have become
uncommon in many countries, the infectious agents that cause
them continue to circulate in some parts of the world. In a highly
inter-connected world, these agents can cross geographical borders
and infect anyone who is not protected. In western Europe, for
example, measles outbreaks have occurred in unvaccinated
populations in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy,
Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom since 2005. So two key
reasons to get vaccinated are to protect ourselves and to protect
those around us. Successful vaccination programs, like successful
societies, depend on the cooperation of every individual to ensure
the good of all. We should not rely on people around us to stop
the spread of disease; we, too, must do what we can.

Shield your finances from disasters
W
henever catastrophic events occur,
they clearly demonstrate that our communities and
livelihoods can be unexpectedly
destroyed in a matter of minutes.
In the aftermath, many victims of
natural disasters struggle to get
back on their feet financially.
While there is no way to completely prevent a natural disaster,
there are steps you can take to protect yourself and your family from
financials difficulties should you
be forced to evacuate your home
in an emergency.
Some strategies to help prepare for potential disasters are:
Store important documents in
some kind of “evacuation box.”
Gather and make copies of all of
your key financials and personal
documents, including passports
and birth certificates. Marriage
licenses, wills, property deeds,
insurance policies, mortgage records, car titles, and stock and
bond certificates.
Make copies of the front and
back of all credit cards and drivers licenses. Then make a list of
all your account and credit card
numbers, as well as a written and
photographic inventory of all you
valuables.
Be sure to have enough cash or
travelers checks to last your family about three days. Keep all essential documents in a ban safe
deposit box located away from
your home, or in an airtight,
waterproof, and fireproof safe or
container that
be easily taken
with you in Schumann
case of an evacuation. Inform Financial
family members or trusted Advice

in case you are
unable to personally retrieve it.
In order to maintain liquidity,
avoid tying up all of your assets
in real estate or investments that
cannot be tapped without paying
penalties. Keep the equivalent of
three to six months income in
a savings or money market account. You may also want to have
on hand several credit cards with
high available balances or arrange
in advance a line of credit for an
emergency. If you have a 401(k)
account with your employer, find
out whether your plan allows you
to take a loan out against your savings.
In protecting your property, if
you live in an area that is vulnerable to natural disasters, consider
ways to mitigate potential damage to your property. Depending
upon the type of disaster likely to
strike in your location, you may
want to take
precautionary
measures by installing smoke
detectors and
clearing brush
from around
the house, if
uncertain,
ask a building
inspector to
recommend structural or other
type of improvements. By taking
protective measures, you may be
able to negotiate a reduction in the
premium on your homeowners
insurance.
Purchase adequate coverage
and review your policies annually. If you have homeowners
insurance, check your policy to
ensure that it covers the actual replacement cost of your home and
its contents. This is especially important if the value of your home
has risen significantly or if you
have made your improvement to
the property. Be aware that your
policy may not cover damage due
to specific causes such a flooding.
In addition, you may want to
consider disability income insurance coverage to provide a source
of income in case you are injured
in a disaster and unable to work
for a period of time. If you receive
health benefits through your employer but lose your job, you may
keep your coverage for a specified period of time under Federal
COBRA laws.
In addition, make sure that
your life insurance coverage is
sufficient to meet the needs of
your family. It may be possible to
withdraw some or all of the cash
value from a permanent life insurance policy, if necessary. However,
access to cash values through borrowing or partial surrenders can
reduce the policy’s cash value and
death benefit increase the chance
the policy will lapse, and may result in a tax liability if the policy
terminates before the death of the
insured.
In summary, do not wait until
disaster strikes. The time to prepare is now. Consider consulting
a legal professional about the potential benefits of additional protection such as trusts, powers of
attorney and a living will.
It needs to be understood that
this will not be new money to any
districts. This would be state aid
for the supplemental general fund
that would be property tax relief.
For USD No.
113, this would
be $12,676.
The property
tax relief would
be a little over
0.1 mill. Most
of the arguments will be
about where to
obtain the $38
million.
One of today’s headlines from
the Topeka Capital-Journal was
“Kansas Finance Council approves record $900 million debt
certificate.”
Contrast that with action taken
by the USD No. 113 Board of Education at the June 6 meeting de-
ciding to pay off a lease purchase
for energy efficiency. The Board
displayed a high level of financial
responsibility by using savings to
pay off a loan with interest rates of
4.97 percent to 5.97 percent.
According to a study conducted
by BOE member Kent Saylor, the
savings to the district on that lease
purchase between now and 2024
is calculated at $161,778.50.
If our children stay in the state
of Kansas, let’s hope they are not
burdened by debt incurred by our
irresponsibility during these recent and future years.
I am hoping that the shutdown
crisis will cause the public, especially voters, to be aware of the
state of our state. We need a longterm plan for appropriate revenue.
We need a long-term plan for
funding education. In the short
term, we need to keep our schools
open.
Revenue problem
A
s I write this article
on Thursday, June 23,
2016, the dark shadow
of a potential shutdown of schools
across the State of Kansas has
superintendents, legislators and
the media scurrying across the
landscape.
While the potential shutdown,
attributed to unconstitutional legislative action, is very concerning,
the problem within the state of a
lack of revenue is the more serious
long-term threat.
I have heard the statement, “We
don’t have a revenue problem. We
have a spending problem.”
I disagree with this statement,
and there is much evidence to
support the fact that we do have
a revenue problem in Kansas that
will be felt many years from now.
Revised revenue estimates continue to come in below lowered
expectations resulting in cuts to
various functions of the state. I assume that the estimators are proficient and qualified at their work,
but an overabundance of mistakes
is mysterious. The latest estimates
are that Kansas
will be down
$45 million at
the end of this Notes

The only logical explanation No. 113
is that the 2012 BY: TODD EVANS
and 2013 in- SUPERINTENDENT

have impacted
revenue much
more than anticipated. Even with
a very large sales tax increase,
there is a revenue problem.
Thirty-eight million dollars in

Gray leaf spot, Japanese beetles
G
ray leaf spot can be
devastating to corn.
According to Illinois
corn fungicide trials, if at least
five percent of the ear leaf area is
affected by disease at season’s end,
a foliar fungicide applied between
VT and R1 would likely have been
beneficial.
Fungicide application research
has demonstrated that the single
best time to apply a fungicide to
corn for gray leaf spot control is
from VT to R1. That means, if you
haven’t been scouting – it’s time to
start! Gray leaf spot is characterized by one to two inch long rectangular (the shape is key!) lesions
over the entire leaf area between
the veins.
Early lesions are small, necrotic
spots with yellow halos that gradually expand to full-sized lesions.
Usually tan, lesions may turn gray
during foggy or rainy conditions.
Predicting disease pressure is
difficult at best. That said, Kansas
State University Plant Pathologist
Dr. Doug Jardine encourages
growers to focus scouting based
on several disease risk factors, including hybrid susceptibility (seed
company information is your best
resource), previous crop, weather
and field history.

increases. Pay EXTENSION
close attention DISTRICT
to fields with a
history of high
disease severity as well.
Current disease management
guidelines suggest a “stairstep” approach to fungicide applications.
Susceptible hybrids (the lowest
rated within a company’s lineup) should be considered for a
fungicide application if disease
symptoms are present on the third
leaf below the ear or higher on 50
percent of plants.
Intermediate hybrids need to
show disease symptoms on the
third leaf below the ear or higher
on 50 percent of the plants examined, if the field is in an area with
a history of foliar disease problems, if the previous crop was
corn, if there
is 35 percent or
more surface
residue, and if
the weather is
warm and humid. Resistant
hybrids (those
with the best
rating within a

fungicide applications.

main goals in BROWN COUNTY
renovation is to EXTENSION
provide a high
level of sunlight
to plant leaves so they can manufacture the food the plant needs.
If leaves have disease spots,
remove all the leaves in the bed.
Removing these diseased leaves
and weeds will cause new, nondiseased leaves to develop and
remove competition from weedy
plants.
Hedge shears or even a mower
can be used. Be sure the mower
blade is high enough to avoid the
strawberry crowns.
It is also important to reduce
the number of strawberry plants
so they do not compete for light,
moisture and nutrients. If you
have a small bed, you can hoe
out or pull some plants so they are
spaced about
fou r to si x
inches apart.
On large beds,
adjust a rototiller so you can
till between the
rows, and cut
each row back
to about 10
inches wide.
The next step
is to fertilize the plants with about
3/4 to one pound (three to four
cups) of a complete fertilizer such
as 13-13-13 (nitrogen, phosphorus
and potassium) or an equivalent
on each 25 feet of row.
If a soil test shows adequate levels of phosphorus and potassium,
use 3/4 pound (1-1/2 cups) of a 160-0 (nitrate of soda) fertilizer per
25 feet of row instead.
If nitrate of soda is unavailable,
use the lawn fertilizer that contains about 30 percent nitrogen
such as a 30-0-3, 28-0-3 or something similar. Make sure the lawn
fertilizer does not contain a weed
killer or preventer. These fertilizers should be used at the rate of
3/4 cup per 25 feet of row.
The next step is to irrigate to
wash the fertilizer into the soil
and provide moisture for the rapid
growth of the strawberry plants.
When the soil is dry, apply about
1 inch of water. A garden sprinkler can do a good job applying
the water.
Controlling weeds and watering throughout the summer are
important so plants are vigorous
when fruit buds begin to develop
in September and October.
Chiggers
Chiggers are mites, not insects.
And like all mites, the adults have
eight legs. However, the larva only
has six legs.
Though the bright red female
adult is tiny (about 1/20 of an
inch) the larva is much smaller
(about 1/150 of an inch). Only the
larvae are parasitic and attack animals.

Control options are as varied
as simply shaking them from
plants in to a jar or bucket containing soapy water (best done
in the morning when the insects
are sluggish) to the multitude of
insecticide products available to
homeowners. In most cases, the
level of infestation determines the
control method!
Insecticides with active ingredients that include cyfluthrin,
bifenthrin and cyhalothrin will
generally provide two to three
weeks of protection. Carbaryl
containing products can be used
as well, lasting one to two weeks.
Neem or Pyola containing
products will provide three to

was able to attend the Passing the Farm to the Next
Generation meeting hosted
by Denison State Bank.
Roger McEowan, a former
Kansas State University Ag Law
specialist was the guest speaker.
After several years at Iowa State
University, he is back in Kansas.
Roger is an expert at farm succession planning!
We’ve all heard the horror stories of those who failed to plan,
and their farms ended up being
sold or enormous amounts of
money given to Uncle Sam. It’s an
important thing to do. It’s not easy
and it’s not free, but it’s a must.
The questions at the end of his
presentation were very thought
provoking. Where do you start?
His answer was a great one. He
suggests sitting down and filling
out sort of a balance sheet of what
all of your assets are. How much
they are worth and how much is
still owed on them.
Then secondly, decide what
your goals are. Do you want the
farm to stay operational, in the
family?
Do you want your child to keep
operating the farm, yet be sure to
give something to the child that
went to the city? It’s a big step for

it would have been in violation of
the guidelines established by the
Kansas Supreme Court. The legislators did what the court ordered
them to do.”
Kansas Senator Dennis Pyle, RHiawatha, said the special session’s
focus was to ensure the Kansas Supreme Court did not close schools
and “disrupt education, teachers’
paychecks and health insurance
coverage over a tiny funding dispute.”
“Legislators demonstrated their
desire to keep schools open and
put Kansas students first by professionally and efficiently working
hard to bring together legislators,
educators and attorneys, resulting
in a bill supported by all parties
and gaining a stipulation by the
plaintiff ’s attorney that the equity
portion of the this litigation is satisfied,” Pyle said.
Kansas House Representative
Randy Garber, R-Sabetha, said he
has mixed feelings concerning HB
2001.
“On one hand, as I stated in the
past, I believe the judiciary continues to overstep their authority and
ignore the constitution they took
an oath to uphold,” Garber said.
“On the other hand, I am glad the
legislature acted quickly to ensure
that our children’s education is not
disrupted by unelected judges who
are using them to divert the public’s attention from their abysmal
record.”
Pyle said he believes it is unfortunate that “seven justices put
Kansas schoolchildren in this situation.”
“The U.S. Supreme Court has
reversed the Kansas Supreme
Court time and time again in
cases involving issues like the
death penalty and sexual predators, and most recently how they
interpreted the Constitution as it
relates to DUI breathalyzer testing,” Pyle said. “Just as these rulings by seven justices demonstrate
the Court’s low grade, the fact they
were willing to close schools also
demonstrates their willingness to
usurp the power of the people and
local control.”
“The authority to close schools
belongs to local school boards,”
Pyle continued. “Rather than following the Constitution, seven
justices empowered themselves
by deciding for the districts what
is best for them.”
Garber noted that the State of
Kansas has had “some form of
school finance litigation for 31 of
the last 50 years.”
“Those who are padding their
pockets with taxpayer dollars will
do everything they can to keep the
gravy train moving in their direction,” Garber said. “This is costing
our taxpayers millions of dollars
every year. Our tax dollars belong
in the classroom, not in some law
firm’s bank account. It is time for
this nonsense to end.”
Far From Over
Believe it or not, Superintendent
Evans said, the equity portion of
the Gannon lawsuit is the “easy
part.”
“The challenge will come this
next year when the Court rules on
the adequacy portion of the lawsuit,” Evans said. “In my opinion,
the Court will direct the legislature
to significantly increase school
funding.”
“Our state is struggling to have
the revenue stream to finance operations at the current level,” Evans
said. “If there is not an increased
revenue stream at the state level,
we will be faced with yet another
self-inflicted crisis.”
Evans said he has hope that the
public is beginning to recognize a
need for change.
“As a state, we are in need of
change,” Evans said. “The bipartisan group of four former Kansas
governors with the ‘Save Kansas
Coalition’ is symbolic of the growing awareness that, as a state, we
are not being financially responsible.”
Garber said he believes HB 2001
is a temporary fix, calling it “far
from equitable.”
“While the legislation will satisfy
the equity portion of the lawsuit,
it is far from equitable, because it
punishes school districts who lose
students and rewards those who
gain them,” Garber said. “This is
why the Republican-led legislature
did the right thing by getting rid of
the old school [finance] formula,
which has been declared unconstitutional by the courts several
times since it became law in 1992.”
Pyle characterized the legislation as both permanent and temporary.
“It [HB 2001] is permanent
enough to prevent disruption
to schools, but temporary in the
sense that Kansas schools need to
be innovative and competitive, and
the challenges before our state are
every changing,” Pyle said.
Pyle says the old school finance
formula was “problematic, especially for rural areas.”

• If your drive home from the

hour, use a cooler/insulated bags
to keep the food fresh and safe.
• Before consuming any produce, it’s important to thoroughly
wash the items under hot running

the outside to inside. So yes, this
means I’m recommending you
wash your onions! It’s not necessary to wash with soap or special

was Board Member Kent Kuckelman.
Superintendent Todd Evans
presented to the board HVAC system bids for Sabetha Elementary

from Edelmans Home Center in
Sabetha.
The new system design should
be more consistent and more comfortable, Evans said.
“Productivity is better if people
are comfortable where they work,”
Reznicek said.
While the new HVAC system
design is more expensive at the
outset, Evans said, the mechanical
engineer says the district should
recoup that cost — through energy
savings — in seven to 10 years.
Board members asked what
the life expectancy of the system
should be. Engineer Scott McKinley told the board that the lifes-

Salaried staff who requested
lump sum payments have already
received checks in June, according to District Clerk Carol Kuckelman. Some others, however, have
requested deferred payments that
are usually paid in June, July and
August. Board members said that,
since this money that has already
been earned, the district could also
pay those employees on June 30 if
necessary.
Whether or not the Court would
grant districts the ability to continue to pay essential staff and essential bills is unknown at this time,
Evans said. Most are still viewing
the actual likelihood of shutdown
to be slim, he said.
Board members noted that they
would be willing to complete essential building tasks, if necessary,
if a shutdown occurs. If it appears
that a shutdown is looming, Evans would contact board members
with further information regarding building needs and a possible
special meeting.

Commissioners stated that they

Commissioners made no decision regarding this issue at this

a red light permit. Commissioners
also spoke to Lippert about the issue brought to them this morning
concerning the chip and sealing of

Ronnebaum advised the board
that Hall Brothers is no longer running a hot mix plant at the landfill.
Ronnebaum said that he has the
workers hauling hot mix out of Topeka right now, and they will be

pan of any mechanical equipment
should be 15 to 20 years, maybe a
few more with good maintenance.
“We have to maintain infrastructure,” J. Scoby said. “And I
like that it is a local company.”
The board approved the $73,300
bid from Edelmans for a new
HVAC system at SES. The work to
install this system should be completed this summer, along with a
roof replacement for that portion
of the building.
Next, the board discussed the
potential for school shutdown
due to a Kansas Supreme Court
decision in the Gannon v. State of
Kansas case. The Court has given
the Kansas Legislature until June
30 to correct what the Court has
deemed to be unconstitutional
equitability in the state’s school
funding formula.
Governor Sam Brownback has
called a special session, which
convened beginning Thursday,
June 23, to consider solutions. If
the legislature does not satisfy the
Court, the KSC has threatened to
shut down all schools.
If this happens, Evans said, USD
No. 113 will work to pay all district employees for any work that
has been completed by June 30.

Sabetha Family Practice Clinic physicians stand behind
new ‘zero-tolerance’ childhood immunization policy
IMMUNIZATION.1A
“We feel like it is important to
respect and protect the 99 percent
of the population who choose to
follow the recommendations properly,” he said.
In May, the SFP Clinic physicians sent a detailed explanation
letter to all patients with children.
The doctors also willingly invite
any patients and families to come
into the Clinic to discuss questions
and/or concerns they might have.
Risk vs. Reward
The CDC recommends immunizing against now vaccinepreventable diseases that previously killed millions.
Standard childhood vaccines
that the SFP Clinic will require
include Chickenpox (varicella),
Diphtheria, Measles, Mumps,
Polio, Hib (Haemophilus influenzae type b), Pneumococcal,
Rotavirus, Rubella, Tetanus and
Whooping Cough (pertussis).
Vaccines that will not be
required, but are strongly recommended by SFP Clinic physicians, include Hepatitis A,
Hepatitis B, Flu (influenza),
HPV (human papillomavirus)
and Meningococcal.
Many people might assume
that the diseases prevented by
immunization could just as easily be treated after someone becomes infected. However, more
than half of vaccine-preventable
diseases are viral, and therefore
only treatable with prevention,
the doctors said.
Some of the others, though
bacterial and treatable, require
very quick treatment to be effective, Dr. Wenger said. For
example, while illnesses caused
by Meningococcal Disease can be
treated with antibiotics, treatment
cannot always be administered fast
enough, as in some cases the illness
can be fatal just a few hours after
symptoms appear.
Dr. Tramp says he believes parents who choose not to vaccinate,
forget to vaccinate, or neglect
boosters as children get older do
not understand the risk of not immunizing their children.
“The risk [a parent is taking] by
not immunizing is so much greater
than any risks associated with the
vaccinations that they’re not even
on the same graph,” he said. “We
have a younger generation — now
parents to their own children —
who has never seen these diseases
and how powerful they are.”
While a number of myths exist, Dr. Kennally said he has never heard a “legitimate argument
against immunization.”
“It a wonderful tool that has
prevented a lot of infectious diseases,” he said. “People in other
countries are dying from diseases
that we don’t even see here, and
that’s because of vaccines.”
Immunization myths — none
of which are backed by sound
scientific research, Dr. Kennally
said — have made their mark on
society by way of email, Internet
sites and under-informed celebrities who “have the podium so they
get heard.”
The most prominent example of
propagation of false information
stems from a 1998 study by Andrew Wakefield, in which Wakefield intentionally misrepresented
or altered the medical histories of
all 12 patients whose cases formed
the basis for his claim that a link
exists between the MMR (measles,
mumps and rubella) vaccine and
autism.
Although that study was almost
immediately disproven, the media
effects created a long-lasting impression on many, some of whom
still claim the link exists.
“Even when their information
is false — or has been intentionally falsified, as was the case with
the autism study, which resulted in
that physician having his medical
license revoked — it is difficult to
push back against that [perception],” Dr. Glynn said.
In particular, this perception has
led some parents to believe that
administering multiple vaccines
at one time risks overwhelming
a child’s immune system, though
there is no sound research to back
up this claim.
strong immunity among community members — a concept called
“herd immunity.”
“Otherwise, if immunization
rates decline due to people opting
not to vaccinate, we are likely to
see the horrible diseases of bygone
days return,” Sunderland said.
An unfounded movement
against immunizations has created
several pockets of unvaccinated
children and adults in the United
States, allowing disease outbreaks
to occur.
“In 2014, the United States
“We still see outbreaks of vaccine preventable diseases, even in
Northeast Kansas,” Longabaugh
said, citing whooping cough as an
example.
According to Sunderland, Kansas has experienced both whooping cough (pertussis) and measles
outbreaks within the last two years,
and Kansas State University had
two confirmed student cases of
mumps earlier this year. In 2012,
Nemaha County had confirmed
whooping cough cases, Sunderland said.
NCCHS monitors the percentage of children and adolescents who are being, or
have ever been, vaccinated at a
NCCHS office.
Currently in Nemaha County,
89 percent of NCCHS patients
between the ages of 12 and 35
months are up-to-date and have
received a complete series of immunizations as recommended
by the CDC for this age group.
Only 77 percent of these children received their immunizations on time, Sunderland said,
but she noted that this could be
due to a variety of reasons.
Some parents unintentionally
do not get their child vaccinated
by the recommended age, she
said, as is the case with most of
the late finishers.
A few parents intentionally
choose to wait until their child
is older to receive certain immunizations or spread out the
immunizations over a period of
time. Some parents also refuse
certain vaccinations for their
child, Sunderland said.
Get Vaccinated
In Nemaha County, NCCHS
provides childhood, adolescent,
adult and travel immunizations.
Sabetha Family Practice and Sabetha Community Hospital offer
a limited number of vaccinations,
including the seasonal flu vaccine.
Cost should never be a barrier,
Sunderland said. While NCCHS
bills most insurance companies for
vaccines, the Vaccines For Children (VFC) Program is available
for any children birth through 18
years of age who are uninsured
or have insurance that does not
cover vaccinations. No children
are denied immunizations due to
the parent’s inability to pay, Sunderland said.
Brown County residents are
covered by the NEK Multi-County
Health Department, with locations
in Brown, Atchison and Jackson
counties.
The CDC recommended immunization schedules can be found
online at www.cdc.gov/vaccines/
schedules.
USD No. 113 Immunization Policies
Prairie Hills USD No. 113 has two policies in place regarding immunizations, and Superintendent Todd Evans said the district plans
to follow these policies very stringently in the future.
“At this time, we are planning on not enrolling pre-K or kindergarten students who do not have their state-required immunizations,”
Evans said.
The district does not wish to exclude anyone from school, he said.
“We have a process that we follow that includes multiple nurse
contacts, multiple principal contacts and then multiple superintendent contacts,” he said.
USD No. 113 policies state that all students enrolling must provide proof of immunization, and boosters, of certain diseases as
mandated by the Kansas Secretary of the Department of Health
and Environment (KDHE).
Immunizations required by the State of Kansas include the following: Chickenpox (varicella), Hepatitis B, Measles, Mumps, Rubella,
Polio, Diphtheria, Tetanus and Whooping Cough (pertussis). More
information is available online at http://www.kdheks.gov/immunize/
schoolInfo.htm.
Additionally, USD No. 113 policy states that students who are not
immunized against certain diseases may be excluded from school
during outbreaks.
Sources: USD No. 113, Kansas Department of Health and Environment
“Some parents want to pick their
own schedule and modify the standard schedule by spreading those
immunizations out over a longer
period of time,” Dr. Glynn said.
“Instead of two shots in one day,
they want to have one shot today
and the other in two weeks.”
But any changes to the standard
immunization schedule cause immunization delays that compound
over time, the doctors say, citing
that the most dangerous age for
most vaccine-preventable diseases
is under the age of 5.
According to Jane Sunderland,
administrator for Nemaha County
Community Health Services, the
CDC’s recommended immunization schedule has been extensively
researched for both safety and effectiveness by experts in the field
of infectious diseases.
“The goal of the childhood immunization schedule is to protect
babies as soon as it is safe and effective to do so,” Sunderland said.
“Alternative vaccination schedules
delay shots and are risky for young
children by leaving a child unprotected from devastating diseases
at a time when the child is most
vulnerable.”
Those who are unvaccinated
or under-vaccinated are as much
a danger to others as they are to
themselves, the doctors say.
“You can then carry that disease
in and pass it on to someone else
whose immune system is less able
to fight it, whether that is a child
who has not yet obtained full immunity or a person whose immune
system is compromised for other
reasons,” Kennally said.
Immunization Rates & Outbreaks
Preventing and controlling the
spread of disease is at the heart of
public health work, Sunderland
said.
In order for vaccination to work,
Sunderland said, it is critical that
immunization rates remain high
in communities, thus providing
experienced a record number of
measles cases, with 667 cases from
27 states reported to the CDC,”
Sunderland said. “This is the greatest number of cases since measles
elimination in the U.S. in 2000.”
Outbreaks are not isolated to
large cities, or the coasts, but can
happen anywhere.
“People in today’s society are
very mobile. People in Sabetha and
the surrounding communities are
no exception,” Sunderland said.
“It’s common for local individuals to travel to foreign countries
to conduct business, serve on a
mission trip, or to vacation.”
“Additionally, Sabetha is in
close proximity to cities and large
universities,” Sunderland said.
“Consequently, the potential of a
vaccine-preventable disease being brought to Sabetha or a nearby
community through international
travel is real, and poses a health
risk to unvaccinated or undervaccinated persons.”

HOW
VACCINES
WORK
Immunity from Disease
When disease germs enter your body, your immune system
goes to work. It does three important things:
1. It recognizes the disease germs as not belonging in your body –
as being “foreign invaders.”
2. It responds by producing proteins called antibodies, which help destroy
these germs. Unfortunately, these antibodies can’t act quickly enough
to stop you from getting sick. But by eliminating the germs, they help you
get well.
3. It remembers the germs that made you sick, and if they ever try to infect
you again – even after many years – your immune system will come to your
defense again. But now they are able to stop the invading germs before
they can make you sick. This is immunity. It is what keeps you from getting
sick from diseases like measles or chickenpox a second time, no matter how
often you are exposed to them.
In other words, the first time you are exposed to a disease, your
immune system won’t stop you from getting sick, but it will help
you recover and make you immune to that disease if you are
ever exposed to it again.
Immunity from Vaccines
With vaccination, killed or weakened disease germs are
intentionally introduced into the body, usually by injection.
Then your immune system goes to work, just as if you were
exposed to a disease:
1. It recognizes the vaccine germs as not belonging in your body –
as being “foreign invaders.”
2. It responds by producing antibodies, the same as if you had been exposed
to the disease. But there is a difference. The germs in the vaccine are
weakened or killed, so they won’t make you sick.
3. However, you will still develop immunity, just as if you had gotten sick
from the actual disease. So if germs from that disease ever do try to infect
you, your immune system will come to your defense and stop them from
making you sick.
In other words, getting a disease or getting a vaccine can both
give you future protection from that disease. The difference is
that with the disease you have to get sick to get that protection.
With the vaccine you don’t.

After going 1-2 with the Topeka
Golden Giants on Thursday and
Friday, June 23 and 24, the Sabetha
Lobos were looking to add two
wins to their record on Monday,
June 27. The Lobos did just that
and defeated the Independence
Veterans in both games, bringing
their record to 12-11.
Game 1
In the first game, the Lobos kept
the lead throughout the entire
game to win 3-2.
Leonardo Castro pitched the
first five full innings and tallied
six strikeouts; and after starting the
sixth inning, Jose Tirado stepped
in and pitched the final 1-1/2 innings. Tirado tallied two strikeouts
during his run.
Third-baseman Angel Martinez,
left fielder David Maldonado and
Jadiel Valle all batted in one RBI
apiece.
Game 2
During the second game, both
teams stepped it up a notch and
fought hard to win the final game.
After the first five innings of play,
the Lobos led 7-5.
The Veterans did not score any
runs in the sixth, while the Lobos
tallied six runs to put them ahead.
In the seventh inning, the Veterans
only scored one run and could not
pull ahead. The Lobos won 13-6.
Albert Ordonez pitched the first
four innings and racked up three
strikeouts. Garrett Schaffer pitched
6.24.2016 Lobos, 3 – Topeka, 13
two innings and also tallied three
strikeouts, and Tirado finished the
game.
During his four at-bats, Martinez hit one homerun and tallied
five RBIs and Maldonado tallied
three RBIs.
The Lobos traveled to Independence, Mo., on Tuesday, June 28, to
play the Veterans again in another
doubleheader.
The next home game for the Lobos will be at 7 p.m. Thursday, July
7, versus Junction City.

Fun By The Numbers
Here’s How It Works: Sudoku
puzzles are formatted as a 9x9
grid broken down into nine 3x3
boxes. To solve a sudoku, the
numbers 1 through 9 must fill
each row, column and box. Each
number can appear only once
in each row, column and box.
You can figure out the order in
which the number will appear by
using the numeric clues already
provided in the boxes. The more
numbers you name, the easier it
gets to solve the puzzle.
