TAKE A ‘BRAKE’ FOR SOME ‘JAKE’ JOVIALITY When my wife and I drive around Kansas, we occasionally see signs that say “No Jake Brakes” or “Jake Brakes Prohibited.” We asked ourselves, “What did Mr. Brakes do to be so unpopular?” I have come up with an answer to that question with “The Ballad of Jake Brakes.” I thought that since you have a “No Jake Brake” sign outside your town, your readers might find the poem amusing: The Ballad of Jake Brakes The blacktop trails and the iron rails bring good and bad to the towns. And some are dismayed to find they’ve paid to be swindled and left with frowns. The confidence man who works his plan is regarded like a nest of snakes. People scorn them all, but the greatest gall was possessed by old Jake Brakes. Jake first worked as a mime who spent his time performing at children’s parties. But he learned too late that children hate those silent white-faced smarties. So Jake washed from his face the only trace of his unpopular but honest trade.
He tried Bible sales and rode the rails, but his hopes and morals did fade. “The heck with the mime, it’s a life of crime that’ll bring me that quick buck! I’ll find a way to make crime pay. All it takes is nerve and some luck.” So Jake hatched some schemes to deliver dreams of easy fame and wealth. Jake traded on trust and money lust, took the cash, then fled in stealth. Jake sold stocks and faulty locks, stole oil from jiffy lubes. He salted mines, purveyed bogus wines, and laughed at the hapless rubes. Oh, Jake plucked them clean as a goose’s spleen. He took advantage of greed and pride. Jake worked his pranks on churches and banks. Was never caught, though many tried. Jake’s infamy spread, some wished him dead. “We should banish that rotten bum. Let’s make it clear he’s not welcome here. Send him back to where he came from.” Then towns posted signs
along the lines warning him to stay away. You can see them yet if you ever get out on the two-lane highway.
or a rusted old sedan. He may come your way like a lamb astray, but he’ll take you for what he can.
The signs say, in a very direct way, “Jake Brakes Prohibited.” To the king of the fakes, “No Jake Brakes.” In many towns they were distributed.
So, should a stranger call and offer all a deal too good to be true, You can treat him nice, but you better think twice or the sheep he shears could be you.
But you can bet Jake’s out there yet, wandering the blacktop two-lane, avoiding the towns he left with frowns, an outcast somewhat like Cain.
The confidence man who works his plan is regarded like a nest of snakes. People scorn them all, but the greatest gall was possessed by old Jake Brakes.
Jake might come back in a Cadillac

THESE SEASONAL MOVIES WON’T FAIL TO ENTERTAIN BY TIM SCHRAG For The Bee tschrag@hutchnews.com
Needing an escape from family during this holiday season? Why not settle for a movie? Much like families, Christmas movies come in all shapes, sizes and dysfunctions, but the beauty here is with movies you can leave all that dysfunction behind after only about an hour. Several area theaters are screening holiday films. The Bee has compiled a short list to help you plan your escape. Like them or not, here they are. Otherwise you’re going to have to settle for Netflix or Red Box.
Yearwood, McBride the latest to cancel SeaWorld concerts THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ORLANDO, Fla. – More entertainers have canceled their appearances at SeaWorld Orlando following the recent release of a documentary that raises questions about the effects of captivity on whales. Representatives for Trisha Yearwood and Martina McBride confirmed Monday that the country singers have joined the ranks of recording artists who have pulled out of performing at the park’s February concert series, Bands, Brew and BBQ. A SeaWorld spokesman also confirmed that 38 Special had pulled out of their scheduled concert at the marine park. They joined Barenaked Ladies, Willie Nelson and Heart in canceling their appearances. The documentary, “Blackfish,” explores what may have caused a 12,000-pound orca named Tilikum to kill veteran SeaWorld trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010.
“Christmas in Acidland,” 7 p.m. today, McPherson Opera House, 219 S. Main St., McPherson: The movie sounds trippy. It’s not. Don't be put off by the name. It’s a hilarious and nostalgic look at Christmas past, as portrayed on film and television. Admission is $5. For more information, visit www.mcphersonoperahouse.org/movies.htm. “It’s a Wonderful Life,” 7 p.m. today, The Orpheum, 200 N. Broadway, Wichita: It doesn’t get more classic than this black-and-white beauty. Join George Bailey, Clarence and the rest of the gang for this classic American Christmas tale. Preceding the fea-
ture film, The Orpheum will present a screening of “Snow Foolin’: A Screen Song” (1949). Admission is $5. Be sure to come out early to join in on this classic “Jingle Bells” sing-a-long! For more details, visit www.wichitaorpheum.com. “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation,” 7:30 p.m. Christmas Day, The Fox Theatre, 18 E. 1st Ave.: Yes, it’s Chevy Chase and the rest of the Griswolds. This film is practically a contemporary Christmas cornerstone. If you can’t relate to this movie, then you probably have delusions of what your family is actually like. Admission is $5.

THERE’S STILL STUFF TO DO AS HOLIDAYS CLOSE IN By this time of year, activities and events tend to start slowing down as people prepare for the holidays. Admittedly, I was a little worried about not finding something to do when I realized that Christmas is next week. Thankfully, event coordinators proved
Kristen Roderick me wrong. There is still plenty to do until Christmas. You just have to know where to look. Take the Kansas Cosmosphere and Space Center, one of my favorite places in the world. Yes, I’m kind of a space junkie. Keep in mind that the Cosmosphere is closing at 3 p.m. Tuesday and it will be closed Wednesday. Until then, the annual holiday show in the Planetarium runs at 3 p.m. daily until New Year’s Day with “Star of Bethlehem.” Dis-
cover what could have inspired people to go see Jesus. One of my favorite movies, “Polar Express,” runs from Dec. 20 to Jan. 2, 2014. It’s at 7 p.m. every night except for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Also showing at the Carey Digital Dome Theater is “Jerusalem.” Anyone who wants a history of the calendar can check out Coffee at the Cosmo at 9 a.m. today. It’s free, and doughnuts and refreshments are served. Holiday hours at the Cosmosphere – which features a Cargo Bay Gift Store for last-minute shopping – are 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and noon to 7 p.m. Sunday from Friday until Jan. 2. Also this week, check out
the Hutchinson Symphony Orchestra’s concert at 7:30 p.m. today at the Fox Theatre, 18 E. First Ave. Conductor Richard Koshgarian already wrote a column about it, but I will also give it a plug. It’s so much fun to dress up with a group of friends and make it to the concert. It offers some tremendous musicians. You’re definitely in for a good time. As always, if you’re looking for more to do, check out the Buzz calendar on Page 2 or go online to calendar.hutchnews.com. It truly is tough to say there’s nothing to do in Hutchinson.

HOLIDAY CONCERT WILL DELIGHT Monkeys eat stew. Banana stew. Sometimes they make it with raisins. When they don’t have any raisins, they’ll use either ants or Skittles. Monkeys really crack me up. They sit and watch countless episodes of that Food Channel show “Chopped.” Then they get all excited and start jumping up and down, throwing stuff at each other and shrieking like monkeys do, and then they start to make their banana stew. Every time the pattern is the same, with each one of them convinced they will be the next “Chopped” champion and win $10,000. This gets them totally hyper, for, as we all know, 10 grand buys a lot of bananas and raisins. I’m not sure how many ants you can get for 10 grand. I do know that you can buy 1,550 ladybugs online for about six bucks. I know this because a while back my daughter mentioned to her boyfriend that she liked ladybugs, so he bought her 4,500 of them. I also know there’s been a lot of research into monkeys and their connection to homo sapiens, but I’m pretty sure the evolutionists are wrong about this one. Monkeys are idiots. So I’m sure by now you’re thinking: What does any of this have to do with the upcoming Hutchinson Symphony concert? And, of course, the answer is: absolutely nothing. Truth is, it’s Christmastime, I’m way passed overtired, my brain is mushy like a smashed banana, and, for some reason, starting off this article with a senseless rant seemed like the right thing to do. The Hutchinson Sympho-
IF YOU GO
Richard Koshgarian ny concert is going to be absolutely fantastic. We’ve got some terrific music, some amazing soloists, and the orchestra is primed and ready to make it one of our best concerts ever. Hector Berlioz is one of the most original, imaginative and deviant musical minds of the last 200 years. Think Frank Zappa with an orchestra and you’ll get the idea. (If you don’t know any of Zappa’s music, put that on your list of things to listen to, after you leave the Symphony concert.) Both are amazing musical minds! Berlioz’s “Roman Carnival Overture” is like Mardi Gras – crazy ideas, endless unexpected events and “fun, fun, fun ’til your daddy takes the T-bird away.” From the insanely ridiculous to the reverently sublime, Samuel Barber’s gorgeous “Adagio for Strings” follows. Every so often, from the infinite store of rhythms, pitches and timbres, a composer manages to manipulate exquisitely the space-time continuum and compiles a sequence of sounds that resonates throughout all humanity and enters into communion with the eternal. In the “Adagio,” Barber captures this essence and provides us with a glimpse of the true nature of being. We are thrilled to present Matt Means, violin professor at Fort Hays State University, to our community.
WHAT: Hutchinson Symphony Orchestra “A Rockin’ Christmas” WHEN: 7:30 p.m. today WHERE: Fox Theatre, 18 E. First Ave. COST: $22 adults, $10 for students under 18 or with a student ID MORE INFO: Visit hutchsymphony.org or call the Fox Theatre box office at (620) 663-1981. Matt will join us to perform “Winter,” from Antonio Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons.” Matt is a virtuoso in every sense of the word: His technique is mind-boggling and his musicianship is deeply personal. The piece was composed in 1723, when musicians were exploring with endless infatuation the sound capabilities of the new and improved violin. (The famous violin makers were flourishing during this time – Stradivari, Amati, Guarneri.) The recent parallel would be the vast improvements made to the electric guitar in the mid-20th century – Gibson’s Les Paul series – which triggered an explosion in music that we know as rock ’n’ roll. New advancements in musical instruments and sound production always spur the imaginations of musicians and composers. In every way, Vivaldi’s “Winter” is a musical landmark, which explains why it is still so popular today, nearly 300 years later. The piece is absolutely electric in its energy and Matt’s performance of it will be stunning. After such an emotionally draining first half, you are probably thinking: How can they top that? What could they possibly perform in the second half ? Christmas music, because this is, after all, our
Christmas concert. We’ll perform a boisterously fun Celtic Christmas piece that is a blast, Ralph Vaughan Williams’ beautiful “Fantasia on Greensleeves,” and Mannheim Steamroller’s “Stille Nacht,” which is my personal favorite. (I didn’t get to do it at last year’s concert and I’ve been bummed about that all year, so this year we’re doing it.) Also, Mr. Jarl Moreland, choir director at Hutchinson High School, will join us to sing another gorgeous piece, “Nella Fantasia,” and delightful Hutch High sophomore Hannah Lara will perform Amy Grant’s “Breath of Heaven” – two wonderful people sharing their beautiful voices with us at Christmas. This is what music and community are all about – sharing. It’s about people sharing their time, talent, energy and musicianship during an insanely busy time of year and people in the community taking a little time out to come, listen, and say thank you. These are the moments that define a community and one of the ways they embrace one another during a busy, joyful holiday season. So come to the concert and take in all this amazing music. It’s the right thing to do. Richard Koshgarian is conductor of the Hutchinson Symphony Orchestra.
BACKERS CARRY LUMINARIA TORCH IN KEY FIGURE’S ABSENCE BY RYAN CHRISTNER For The Bee ryanc@hutchnews.com
In just a few short days, neighborhoods in western Hutchinson once again will join together and open their streets and sidewalks – and, for some, even their homes – as visitors converge to enjoy one of the city’s most beloved Christmas traditions. The annual Hyde Park Luminaria, set to begin at 6 p.m. Saturday, should look and feel much like all the others throughout the past 30 years. Yet, missing will be one of the ritual’s most central figures, Jim Sunderland, who moved away from Hutchinson this summer and left a void in leadership for the event. That picking up the reins and ensuring all still goes according to plan went so smoothly is as much a credit to the dedication of new torchbearers Gail Barnes and Autumn Westphal as it is to Sunderland’s attention to detail – he was known to begin planning for the onenight activity as early as July. Sunderland left behind “boxes of notebooks” from his many years of coordination, Barnes said, as well as
BY THE NUMBERS 14,400 – candles ordered 15,000 – paper sacks ordered 12 to 14 – tons of sand supplied by APAC-Kansas Shears Division 36 – square blocks in participation area 228 – estimated number of homes participating 2,000 – ginger snap cookies 25 – gallons of cider task lists breaking down by week or day when certain objectives should be achieved. “He really made our lives easy,” Barnes said. She and Westphal began their preparations around Halloween, the largest hurdle being the many rounds of telephone calls to the area block captains, local organizations and businesses, city offices and other volunteers who all have a hand in helping create the ambiance of the evening. Homeowner fees had to be increased by $5 this year, but that was due to the rising cost of materials. As in years past, visitors can expect cookies and apple cider distributed by local Boy Scout Troop 301 at a
tent in Hyde Park, horsedrawn wagon rides courtesy of the Bronc Rumford family, special music by Hutchinson High School vocal music groups and Robert Rate’s brass quartet, a special appearance by Santa and Mrs. Claus at the corner of 20th and Washington, and, of course, the sight of thousands of illuminated sacks glowing gently in the darkness in every direction. Also, the nearby Grace Episcopal Church again will hold a soup supper fundraiser at 6 p.m. and will be open to those wanting a reprieve from the cold, and Rcat will provide rides through the area, originating at the fairgrounds parking lot at 20th and Poplar. Although a strong foundation had been laid by Sunderland, Barnes said news of his departure left many wondering who would step up to fill his sizable shoes. As a resident of the Hyde Park area for nine years and as a luminaria block captain for the past seven or eight years, Barnes had embraced the affair, and over time it became woven into her family’s Christmastime routine.
“I said, ‘I’m not watching this go away,’ ” Barnes said. In return for that eagerness and passion, she has received strong support among her fellow block captains. While she’s aware that not every home chooses to participate, Barnes said she believes the process makes for quality family time, and she’s looking forward this year to setting up her display. Her husband, Chris Barnes, typically is too busy with his duties managing operations at Smith’s Market to assist, but Gail and their two children, Graham and Clare, have worked out a method on their own: loading sand and supplies into their car and inching it around their property as they dutifully align their allotment of sacks. Some may say there are easier ways – “I think everybody has their own system,” Barnes said – but, for her, all of the hard work pays off at the end of the night, after the streets have cleared of pedestrians and cars and the night is calm save for a sea of lights flickering in the stillness. “It’s just beautiful and serene,” she said. “It’s kind of a magical experience.”
