Lynn Says

Potential cuts would cripple nursing homes Alva Beadles home illustrated

(This eye-opening piece was offered to the Newsgram and it should be of high interest to anyone who has relatives in a nursing home or who may be contemplating a nurse home. – Lynn L. Martin)

By Tandie Hastings The Oklahoma Health Care Authority, facing the possibility of major budget reductions, is threatening to cut Medicaid reimbursement rates by 25 percent.

If that happens, it’s impossible to overstate the health care crisis we will face in Oklahoma.

Nine out of 10 nursing homes would be in danger of closing, potentially leaving more than 16,000 vulnerable and elderly Oklahomans homeless and without medical care. Almost 17,000 nursing employees would lose their jobs.

Lawmakers have told many

THANK YOU Our family wishes to convey our sincerest appreciation to Share Hospital Staff, Alva Firemen, Whartons, Alva Police and Town & Country Church.

Your efforts and comfort are truly appreciated.

Sincerely, The Steve Jacobson Family

residents and employees not to worry – the Medicaid rate cut may be much lower than 25 percent, perhaps 10 percent or even 5 percent. These words are meant to be comforting, but those of us in the nursing profession know the truth: Nursing facilities have been underfunded for so long that any cut threatens a large-scale collapse of the system.

At a 5 percent reduction in Medicaid reimbursements, 44 percent of Oklahoma nursing facilities are in danger of closing, potentially displacing 8,000 seniors.

One of those seniors is Jeanie Yohn, an 89-year-old who lives in the Beadles Nursing Home in Alva. Jeanie needs around-the-clock medical care and nursing assistance. She uses a special stand-up lift to get in and out of bed.

She is wheelchair bound and requires constant care for skin disorders and frequent labs.

She has a loving family who helped place her in a nursing home because it gives her the best opportunity to live in relative comfort and with a sense of decency. Her family is terrified of the Beadles facility closing, and for good reason: They will be left with virtually no way to care for Jeanie.

While the state does offer other optional programs for people like Jeanie, including the at-home care offered in Medicaid Advantage, those

programs don’t deliver the same level of skilled nursing services that most nursing home residents need. The home-delivered meals, occasional visits and other services offered by those programs are beneficial, but they fall short of the 24-hour access to medically intense care that truly vulnerable and elderly men and women need. For residents like Jeanie, nursing homes aren’t just the best option, they are the only option.

If our lawmakers allow that option to be taken away, which it will be for thousands of Oklahomans if there is any reduction in the Medicaid rate, they will create a medical and humanitarian crisis in Oklahoma.

To avert that catastrophe, nursing home residents, employees and owners have joined a growing coalition of health care providers to push for a solution: a $1.50-per-pack tax increase on cigarettes that would generate $187 million a year to be spent on stabilizing the Medicaid system.

Lawmakers tell us that passing such a tax is a “heavy lift” because of opposition from convenience stores and smokeshops. To that I would say: God help us all if our government is so broken that it now values the profit margins of cigarette vendors over the well-being of Oklahoma seniors.

Hastings is president of the board of the Oklahoma Association of Health.

By Lynn L. Martin Superintendent Steve Parkhurst told the Alva Board of Education Monday night that the district has collected 97 percent of the revenue projected for the fiscal year by the auditor in preparing the budget. The projected amount was $16,166,215.06, while the amount collected so far is $15,755,012.70.

As a comparison, the general revenue collected for 2015 was $14,384,270.42 while the revenue collected for 2014 was $11,151,585.59.

With the decline in the oil business, gross production revenues are lagging.

The projection was $2,241,383.39, but collections are 80 percent of that at $1,789,760.14. Comparing previous years, at the end of fiscal year (FY) 2015 gross production revenue was $3,735,638.99. The numbers at the end of FY 2014 were $2,572,075.51.

The board hired two new certified teachers: Tami Michael and Yesenia Buckhaults. The board is no longer specifying which school site the teachers will work. This allows administrators to move teachers to different sites throughout the school year without having to call a special board meeting.

Resignations In people leaving the district, Becky Pingelton is retiring from the central office at the end of the fiscal year.

Two certified teachers resigned: Heather Lohmann, who teaches Alva Middle School math (going to Waukomis), and Sylvia Griego-Beeler from Longfellow.

Non-certified staff submitting resignations included Jewel Conner, band as-

sistant (although she may return for the next year); Hayden Seifert, a para at the high school; Mary Cox, a cook at Lincoln; Nicole Nusser, a para at Longfellow; Tracy Bratten, a para at Washington; Tena Martin and Amy Toews of the Cooperative Education project.

School Lunch Prices The school lunch prices will be slightly higher next year. Elementary lunches will move from $2 to $2.05. Middle school lunches will increase from $2.10 to $2.15; high school lunches will increase from $2.35 to $2.40. The breakfast offerings will go up about a nickle each. Elementary will be $1.75, middle school will be $1.75 and high school $1.75. Guest adult lunches will be $4.35.

Bus Usage The board approved the use of Alva district buses for two groups. First Baptist Church will be using buses to take students to Falls Creek at Davis July 1823, and also to Oklahoma City on Aug. 1.

The Cherokee Strip Museum will use buses for summer camps in July with trips to the Sod House, Salt Plains Lake, and the Hatlestad Farm in Cherokee. In each case, the organization is to provide fuel, a licensed/certified driver and certificate of insurance before using the bus.

Summer Camps Approved A summer basketball camp for boys and girls who will be entering grades 3 – 9 will be operated from May 25-27 from 9 a.m. to noon. Each camper will receive a camp shirt and basketball for their tuition of $65.

Boys and girls who will be entering grades K-2 are eligible to participate in a summer camp May 25-27 from 1-3

Alva schools still okay on money

Yesenia Bucknaults, math teacher p.m. Each camper will receive a camp shirt and basketball for their $50 tuition.

An Alva football camp will begin June 6 and run through June 8 for second through eighth graders at the Alva High School football field. This is a non-contact camp. The fee is $50. The plan said the camp is encouraged for anyone looking to gain pivotal knowledge and instruction in how to play football. A camp shirt will be provided with attendance.

Another Alva football camp will run July 6-8 for ninth through 12th graders at Alva High School football field. The fee is $50. A camp shirt will be provided.

The Summer Pride Camp for incoming third through 12th grade boys and girls enrolled in the Alva Public Schools will begin at the new indoor complex and weight facility. Two sessions will be held. June 1 – Aug. 2 Monday through Thursday at 7 a.m. for both. Then also a session June 6 – July 22 for thirdthrough eighth-grade boys and girls. Fee for either is $50.

The school board entered into an executive session to discuss the superintendent’s salary. Parkhurst told the board he did not want a pay increase since the teachers were not getting one.

The board voted to continue his contract for the 2016-17 school year the same as it was for the 2015-16 school year with an annual pay of $104,500.

Waynoka Board of Education renews contracts for 2016-2017 school year

By Stacy Sanborn Waynoka’s school board met Monday night for their regularly scheduled meeting. Mindy Zook, Rick George, Don Blalock, Clint Olson, and Andy Ferguson were all present.

The consent agenda was looked at first and subsequently approved.

Superintendent Loren Tackett spoke about financials and said no Atlas money has come in yet on ad valorem reimbursement, but said he should hear something soon.

On expenditures, the school is $300,000 ahead of last year, and is in really good shape. Tackett deemed the school financially sound.

During his report, Tackett said a letter was received last week stating the school didn’t do the maintainance of efforts on special education. Trying to explain, he said,“Whatever I spend for special ed, which is flow-through money that goes to the coop, or basically my salaries of my teachers here and whatever we spend in special ed, from year to year it has to stay the same or you get penalized for what you didn’t spend. It forces you to basically spend what you spent in the past. They don’t want you trying to save money by not spending money on special ed. That’s a federal thing. Our maintenance of effort wasn’t enough this year, but the reason is because Mrs. Crissup went on half-time.”

He went on to say that he’s taking care of it and will have to send in a report, but a penalty should not be assessed.

An on-site audit of the child nutrition program was completed a couple of weeks ago, and only two or three minor issues surfaced. He said it was nothing that would cost them any money.

The State Department did an audit on the school’s state testing, but no official feedback has been received to date.

He talked about some summer projects he and the custodians are planning.

Those items include cleaning and inspecting each bus, painting classrooms in the north building, removing and replacing old tin from the ag building, and replacing tiles and painting in the elementary bathrooms.

In his report, Prinicpal Michael Meriwether said that so far testing has been going really well in all classes. He said that when the State Department was there for the audit, they told him that they had zero concerns about how the school conducted the testing.

Moving down the agenda, agreements with Alcohol and Drug Testing Inc. were approved for bus drivers and student extra-curricular activities for the 2016-2017 school year.

A list of items was approved to be declared as surplus and designated for disposal.

Discussion ensued as the group reached an agreement on the proposed 2016-2017 school calendar.

Meriwether said he likes to get as many school days in as possible before testing begins, but Rick George was concerned about days being cut out. Finally, a calendar was agreed upon and voted through.

The board went into executive session to go over personnel decisions for certified career classroom teachers, certified temporary classroom teachers, a drivers education teacher, the summer maintenance staff, and also the contract of the superintendent.

Upon reconvening, all full-time and part-time certified teachers were approved for reemployment.

Certified temporary classroom teachers approved for reemployment were Tim Crissup, Shannon Gossney, Carly Williams, and Renea Gaskill. Upon Tackett’s recommendation, first year teachers Lindsay Seaman, Dustin Smith, Megan Smith and Danielle Budy were rehired on a temporary contract. Beau Westfahl was rehired to serve as the drivers education teacher for the 2016 summer, and the summer maintenance staff consisting of Danny Green, Beau Westfahl, Scott Kysar, and Dustin Smith were voted for rehire.

The board tabled making a motion for the superintendent’s contract.

With no new business, the meeting adjourned.

Letter to the Editor:

Integris explains their plan for Alva health clinic Oklahoma-owned INTEGRIS Health’s mission is to improve the health of the people and communities we serve, and we are excited to provide our quality health care services to the people of Alva and Woods County. We are proud to be a community partner in many towns and cities across northwest Oklahoma.

INTEGRIS works alongside other health care providers in many of these communities, working in partnership to provide needed services.

Our desire is to bring providers to Alva to establish a clinic that would provide primary care, as well as rotating specialist such as cardiology, orthopedics, pain management, ENT and OB/Gyn. We plan to strengthen our relationship with Share Medical Center and use their available ancillary services to make access as convenient and easy as possible for our patients.

The relationship between INTEGRIS and Share Medical Center is long standing, as both the INTEGRIS Cherokee Family Clinic and the

711

INTEGRIS Waynoka Family Clinic are supporters of Share Medical Center and frequently utilize services provided at the facility.

Our facilities in Enid serve between 10 - 15 people each day who call Alva home. At this time, those friends and neighbors travel more than 70 miles each way from Alva to Enid to seek care at one of our clinics. Those daily doctor’s appointments represented a total of more than 3000 physician visits to Enid from Alva during 2014.

We have submitted an application to the City of Alva in accordance with ordinance No. 2014-046 that would bring physicians to Alva. This a secondary request, as the facts today are now different than when the application was first considered. With the recent exit of two physicians from Alva, we believe the outmigration for health care services will only increase and we see it is an important time to reconsider.

Our main goal for bringing INTEGRIS providers to the clinic

location in Alva is to help ease the burden of those we serve in Alva.

In response to any concerns the Alva community may have in regards to the opening of the Alva Medical Clinic, the services that we will provide at the clinic will be complimentary to those offered at Share Medical Center.

The primary care providers who will be located at the clinic will become familiar with and utilize the available services in the community, such as laboratory and diagnostics. By utilizing these local services we can make access to care as convenient as possible for our patients. By adding access to specialty physicians and primary care providers, in the Alva community, we will ease the burden of those that are currently traveling to Enid, or distant communities, to access that same care.

At the same time, by adding these providers to the community, the amount of patients seen in Alva for health care will increase.

We are pleased that we were able to work with a local landlord to find existing space for lease that perfectly meets the needs of our providers. No capital investment or reconstruction of any kind has been necessary, and our only needs are a few furnishings to help make the clinic as pleasant as possible for our patients and families in Alva.

INTEGRIS recognizes Alva as a wonderful community and an ideal location for us to provide services.

We encourage you, the citizens of Alva, to support the opening of the INTEGRIS Alva Medical Clinic.

We ask that you contact us with any questions you might have regarding the opening of the clinic. Please contact Catherine Gann at 580-548-1109 or catherine.gann@integrisok.com. We look forward to continuing to develop a positive relationship with the Alva community and to serving our patients in a location that’s more readily available and convenient to them.

Sincerely, Kevin Seely Vice President INTEGRIS Medical Group

Obituaries MICHAEL DOBBS TAMMS, Illinois – Michael Lee Dobbs, 48, passed away at 3:30 p.m. on Friday, April 29, 2016, at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri.

He was born on April 11, 1968, in Madison, Wisconsin, the son of Rodger and Margaret (Province) Dobbs.

He married Doris Wiltshire on April 20, 2007, in Edwardsville, Illinois. She survives.

Other survivors include one son, one step-son, one daughter (Tori Rodgers of Alva), one step-daughter, eight grandchildren; one brother, and one sister.

A Celebration of Life Memorial Service will be conducted at 2 p.m.

Saturday, May 7, 2016, at Marks Mortuary in Wood River, Illinois.

FLOYD SMITH DOMNICK, JR. Floyd Smith Domnick Jr., age 76, of Tyler, Texas, passed from this life on April 29, 2016, at the East Texas Medical Center following a very short illness of cancer. A celebration of his life will be held at the Apostolic Christian Church in Kiowa, Kansas, at 10 a.m. on Thursday May 5, 2016, with Ron Allenbach and Matt Schupbach officiating under the direction of Lanman Funeral Home Inc of Kiowa. Viewing will be Wednesday from 10 a.m. until 8:30 p.m. with family present from 7:30 p.m. until 8:30 p.m.

He was born in Peoria, Illinois, on March 13, 1940, to Floyd Smith Domnick and Doris Lorraine (Fritz) Domnick.

They moved to Udall, Kansas, when

Junior was about three. In 1945 they moved to a farm west of Burlington, Oklahoma, where he attended school first -10th grades and participated in FFA, basketball, tennis and track.

However, he had a desire to play football and transferred to Kiowa High School his junior year, where he graduated in 1958. He then attended Northwestern State University in Alva, Oklahoma, and Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado, majoring in horticulture.

He was united in marriage to his high school sweetheart, Vanda Garner of Kiowa, Kansas, on October 30, 1959, at the United Methodist Church in Kiowa.

To this union two children were born: Brandon and Holly.

He accepted Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior in 1960 and followed the Lord in baptism. He loved the Lord in his own special way and in his later years really enjoyed talking to people about the Lord, even total strangers.

In 1961 he enlisted in the Army and was stationed in Cleveland, Ohio, and Fairbanks, Alaska.

His dad was a custom cutter and he, with his siblings, spent their summers cutting wheat from the Texas-Oklahoma border to the Canadian border.

In 1973 Junior and Vanda established Hilltop Nursery and Landscape Service north of Hazelton, Kansas, and then later went into farming in 1980. He also drove a school bus and was janitor for South Barber Schools for several years. He had many different jobs throughout his lifetime, but horticulture and working with plants was his passion.

Junior loved his children and family deeply, cherishing memories of Domnick family reunions in years past. He was the oldest of five siblings and twentyone first cousins. Every time he had an

opportunity to be with any member of the family, he had a story to tell about each one of them.

He was preceded in death by his parents and a miscarried son.

He is survived by his wife, Vanda of Tyler, Texas; son, Brandon and wife, Amy of Northglenn, Colorado; daughter, Holly Beavers and husband, Scott of Phoenix, Arizona; two granddaughters, Megan and Harry Lujan of Englewood, Colorado and Rachel and Dylan Zollars of Highland Ranch, Colorado; two brothers, Ronnie Domnick and Skeet of Kiowa, Kansas, and Terry Domnick and Donna of Oklahoma City, two sisters, Judith Kildow and Roger of Cherokee, and Cindy Domnick of Missoula, Montana; many nephews; nieces; many cousins and friends.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorials be made through Lanman Funeral Home in Kiowa to The Apostolic Christian Church of Kiowa, Hardtner or Kiowa Volunteer Fire Departments, Kiowa District Hospital or South Barber Schools.

KRAMER CHRISTOPHER LEWIS A celebration of life for Kramer Christopher Lewis will be 3:30 p.m.

Wednesday, May 4, 2016, at the Alva High School Auditorium with Rev. Paul Cole, pastor of the Town and Country Christian Church and Derrick Thomas, Youth Director at First Baptist Church. Interment will be in the Alva Municipal Cemetery under the direction of Marshall Funeral Home of Alva.

Kramer Christopher Lewis, son of Peter Lewis and Tonja (Miller) Lewis, was born July 7, 1995, in Lubbock, Texas. He was baptized at the Town and Country Christian Church on February 6, 2005. Kramer was granted his angel wings on April 30, 2016, in Alva, Oklahoma, at the age of 20 years, 7 months and 7 days as a result of injuries sustained in a one vehicle accident.

He was a beautiful soul with a zest for life, who had a love for his family that

Roger Kassik - On Telehospitalist Program at Share Medical Center Roger Kassik of Dacoma, with his wife Paulene and daughters Lynni and Dawn, relaxes after he was transferred back to SMC for less costly swing bed level of care. He may occasionally have to transfer back to the larger hospital for specialized procedures. He is monitored by Dr. Robert Rader via telemedicine while in Alva.

“I think this tele-medicine machine is a great thing. Some of the treatments I need require multiple trips to larger OKC hospitals for check ups. With the Chief of Staff of St. Anthony Hospital handling the tele-medicine work for Share Medical Center, it saves my family time and travel trouble. They also drop by SMC with a fifteen minute trip from Dacoma. We can lunch together and discuss family business so easily,” Roger said.

“It is amazing that we can have almost immediate access to an OKC specialist. We’ve been able to visit with Dr. Rader every day.

For me, they’ve been able to do it at any hour of the day or night.”

Daughter Lynni said, “I think it is more comfortable for my Dad to be in the smaller surroundings being taken care of by people we know and who care for us.”

580-327-2800

Dawn said, “This is awesome technology. I was highly impressed by Dr. Rader. It is so great to be able to converse with someone like that and so clearly, too. The picture and sound quality is simply outstanding.”

Elevator managers predict earlier than usual harvest, average or better yields

By Yvonne Miller The following are literally million dollar questions in America’s heartland where now green wheat fields will soon be amber waves of grain blowing in the Oklahoma and Kansas winds. When will harvest begin? Will the wheat have good yields? Will the grain quality be strong and marketable? If and when will the dangerously low price of wheat increase?

A call to area grain elevator managers Monday afternoon, May 2, found similar comments along the southern border of Barber County, Kansas, and the northern Oklahoma counties of Woods and Alfalfa. All the men specified that their comments are how the crop is today – painfully aware that Mother Nature can change the scenario in a heartbeat.

Newman’s Overview of Crops in Burlington Area Burlington Cooperative Manager Robbie Newman said the area is much in the same scenario as last year. He said conditions started out that the 2016 harvest could be a bumper crop.

Then problems like bugs, disease, drought, etc., came along and harmed the wheat.

Regardless, Newman said, “We still have the potential to have a 40 bushel (per acre) wheat crop – probably some 50 and 60. I expect it will be all over the board.” He can see harvest starting around June 1 “if we stay in this weather pattern.” Newman said the cool evenings are good for allowing the wheat to fill.

“There’s not as much freeze damage as I thought. If Mother Nature is good to us between now and June, we should have a good harvest,” Newman said.

Courson Comments on Kansas

Border Wheat In Kiowa, Kansas, O.K. Grain Inc. assistant manager Brett Courson said the crop in the Hardtner, Hazelton and Kiowa area “is lookin’ pretty good.” He said, “There’s some bugs and fungus – the main issue is rust.” Before the recent rains, Courson said, “The terrace tops were thinned out and the drought was taking it. The rain was a lifesaver.

It perked the crop up a little – saved it. Right now it looks like the yields will at least be average or above.”

Courson’s prediction for wheat cutting to commence is May 29 which he said “is a little early.”

Courson that the canola planted in the area “looks good right now.” The brilliant yellow blooming plants are the source of allergy complaints by many.

As the plant loses color it is close to canola cutting time which is about the same time as wheat harvest. Kiowa’s east elevator accepts canola seed at night.

Truelock on Alva Area Crops Ronnie Truelock, general manager of the Alva Farmers Cooperative was en route to the Oklahoma Grain and Feed Convention Monday afternoon.

“I’ll know lots more when I return from that,” he said.

Truelock said wheat in the Alva area “lost some potential” with the drought, some late freezes and some rust problems. In the recent wet conditions, Truelock said, “It makes the wheat more susceptible to rust. But the cooler temperatures help the (grain) quality.”

Despite the challenges this 2016 crop has endured thus far, Truelock estimates the wheat will still average 25-35 bushels/acre. He predicts the

crop will average 10 bushels better than last year. When asked an estimated date for the beginning of wheat cutting, Truelock said, “We’ve been saying the 25th. By June 1, we’ll see some wheat harvested.”

Recalling the lower-than-usual quality of grain (test weights) produced by the 2015 wheat crop, Truelock said, “We were pretty fortunate this winter.

We could raise our quality of last year’s lower test weight by blending it with some higher quality wheat.”

Lohmann Comments on Alva Area Wheat Agronomist Jay Lohmann became manager of Wheeler Brothers Grain in Alva this spring. He said the biggest challenges to this year’s crop were stripe rust and leaf rust. He said they’ve seen a small amount of freeze damage.

“We were starting to hurt west of Alva with the drought. Thankfully we have adequate moisture right now. I see an average of 40 bushel (per acre wheat). We just need the price to come up.” Lohmann said he thinks wheat cutting will begin in the Alva area by June 1.

Parker on Cherokee Area Crop Cherokee Cooperative Manager Shane Parker said wheat crops in the Cherokee area “look pretty good, despite the drought, late freezes to insect problems and rust. The rain and cooler weather we’ve had are ideal for filling the grain.”

Parker predicts, “maybe an aboveaverage crop.” He expects harvest to be going in the Cherokee area by the first week in June. “At this point everything looks good except the price (of wheat) which closed at $3.89 today.”

Kiowa Hospital Board encourages taxpayers to attend annual meeting May 19 To discuss decreased valuation (tax revenue) and how to combat shortfall for KDH; To elect new board member

By Yvonne Miller Thursday, May 19, is the annual meeting of the Kiowa (Kansas) District Hospital (KDH). The KDH board members encourage all interested taxpayers who live in this hospital district that is supported by tax revenues to attend the 7 p.m. annual meeting at Kiowa’s Community Building.

As reported previously in the Newsgram, the valuation of Barber County, Kansas, has drastically decreased due to the decline of the oil and gas boom, protested taxes and lawsuits by oil companies, etc.

At the regular April meeting of the KDH board of directors last Thursday, President Pat Myers said he’s been told that the tax valuation will most likely be cut in half. That equates to much less tax revenue the hospital district relies on partially to operate.

To continue operations with the loss of tax revenue, the hospital board realizes that in the worst case scenario they might have to double the KDH mill levy, which would require a vote of the taxpayers, Myers said.

“We do not have a lot of bulk to cut out and run our hospital as we should,” Myers said. “I do not want the community to be blindsided. They need to know what we are dealing with.”

During the April meeting the board held a conference call with BKD Auditor Matt Morris (who audits KDH finances).

He presented a draft audit. Morris had lots of good things to say, such as cash-onhand being up $300,000 to $400,000 this year. The preliminary cost report shows near $500,000 due from Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements.

Morris expressed concern about how hard the decreased valuation from the county will affect KDH. “Your net position is up, which is good,” Morris said.

Morris will present the complete cost report and audit at the annual meeting. He complimented KDH CFO Janell Goodno for making further improvements this year.

“Each year Janell makes our job easier,” Morris said.

Auditor Discusses Manor The auditor addressed finances of the manor, which is part of the hospital.

Morris said BKD did a six-year analysis of the manor from 2010 to 2016. He said that in 2015 the manor had 67 percent occupancy.

Morris said in the six-year analysis, the manor has lost an average of $390,000 each year. He said that was when Medicare reimbursements were higher and before the Affordable Care Act.

Grismer explained with the Affordable Care Act, KDH has increased regulations and less money to meet those regulations and fines if they don’t meet requirements.

She said the state of Kansas has not expanded KanCare and Kansas is not a Medicaid expansion state. Additionally a federal sequester means two percent less reimbursement (for example, Medicare and Medicaid). All of this means less revenue for KDH. Morris said that all over facilities with nursing homes are trying to reduce their number of beds and staff. Even that has not been a solution, he said. “Everyone is trying to determine what is best,” from a cost-saving perspective. Despite the number of residents, facilities still have fixed costs.

If a nursing home has more residents, they must have more staff and aides. KDH CEO Margaret Grismer said, “We’ve exhausted out supply of staff and aides.”

The manor financial operating statement ending in March 2016 presented by Goodno at the April meeting showed that the manor has lost $93,312 year to date. That’s an improvement over the same time last year when the loss was $98,959.

Open Board Seat, to Be Elected at Annual Meeting All members of the board attended the April meeting with the exception of Brenna May. Attending were Myers, Jim Parker, Jeff Miller and Chantae Simpson.

Two board seats are open at the annual meeting. One of those is held

by Jim Parker, who is willing to serve another term on the board. The other open seat is held by Myers, who will not seek reelection to the board. If interested in serving go by the business office at the hospital. The board positions will be filled by a vote of the people attending the meeting.

The remainder of the KDH April Board meeting will run in a separate article next week in the Newsgram. One exciting note from that meeting is in the search for another physician, the committee has another candidate to interview.

Jet Fire Department annual benefit supper Jet Fire Department will host their annual benefit supper Saturday, May 7, 5-8 p.m. The department will serve smoked pork, scalloped potatoes, baked beans, green beans, corn, salads and homemade desserts.

Donations will be accepted at the door and all funds will be used to support the ongoing work of the Jet Fire Department. The department is working to update the city pumper, add extrication tools and replace wildland safety gear, helmets and tools that are worn out.

Jet Fire Department serves as a

response agent in Alfalfa County.

The department works with the Timberlake Elementary School to help educate students on fire safety.

They provide mutual aid to fire departments in Alfalfa, Grant and Woods counties. The department has gone through training with Vance Air Force Base to provide fire and rescue service at Kegelman Air Force Base and the surrounding area. The department responded as part of the Alfalfa County Strike Force in providing mutual aid to wildfires in northwest Oklahoma the last three

years.

Currently the department has 12 members who volunteer their time and service, Jason Jenlink, chief; Colton Castle, assistant chief; Glen Hensley, training officer; Ernie Price, safety officer; Sandra Price, secretary; Steve Carson; Tre Carter; Kim Humphrey; Jeff Jenlink; Logan Reinhart; Adam Tucker and Chris Tucker.

The Jet Fire Department’s fleet of trucks and an Air/Evac Lifeteam helicopter and crew members will be available for everyone to see at the benefit supper.

“From Barrels and Boxes to Feed Sacks” exhibit at the Sod House Museum The Sod House Museum presents a new exhibit, “From Barrels and Boxes to Feed Sacks,” for visitors to enjoy when visiting the museum.

The display features bonnets, aprons, garments, a sugar crystal bag and feed sacks, along with a 100-pound bag for Cherokee Chief Egg Mash, manufactured by the Cherokee Grain Company in Cherokee.

Museum Director Renee Trindle will present an overview of the history and use of feed sacks on Saturday, May 21, at 10 a.m. Trindle will present a timeline of the history of feed sacks, starting with the invention of the lockstitch sewing machine and including World War I, the Great Depression and the patriotism of World War II. In the early 1800s tins, boxes and wooden barrels were used to transport goods such as food, grain, seed and feed.

Then between 1840 and 1890 cotton sacks gradually replaced barrels as food containers because of the invention of

the lockstitch. The lockstitch sewing machine, invented in 1846 by Elias Howe, made it possible to sew double locking seams strong enough to hold the contents of a bag and practical for repeated use. Bags were produced in varying sizes from one pound for household use to those 12 feet long for picking cotton. As late as the 1880s barrels were still the preferred storage unit, but by World War I they had all but disappeared.

The sacks were originally plain, unbleached cotton and the farmer’s name often was stamped on his bag so it could be reused. In the late 1800s textile mills were producing strong, inexpensive cotton, which quickly replaced canvas as the preferred material for feed sacks.

Feed sacks first were sold in colors, then in colorful prints beginning around 1925. Farmers’ wives enjoyed this new source of basically free fabric by turning the cotton sacks into items of use such as clothes, pillow cases, undergarments, curtains and quilts. Feed companies began to print their sacks in colored patterns, and since it usually took more than one bag to make a dress, the idea was to give the farmer an incentive to keep buying their products.

The Sod House Museum is operated by the Oklahoma Historical Society.

The museum is open Tuesday–Saturday, 9 a.m.–5 p.m., and is located southeast of Aline on State Highway 8. For more information contact Director Renee Trindle at 580-463-2441.

Ex-reserve deputy convicted in fatal shooting denied bail TULSA, Okla. (AP) — A former volunteer sheriff's deputy in Oklahoma convicted last week of fatally shooting an unarmed man has been denied bail while he awaits sentencing.

Former Tulsa County Sheriff's reserve deputy Robert Bates was denied bail during a hearing Tuesday.

Bates has been jailed since Wednesday when he was convicted of second-degree manslaughter in the shooting death of Eric Harris during a gun-sale sting last year.

Jurors recommended Bates serve four years in prison and the 74-year-old insurance executive is to be sentenced May 31.

Bates cited medical issues as a reason for release, but the judge said state law prohibits bail on appeal for those convicted of a felony while possessing a firearm.

Harris' killing prompted a grand jury investigation that led to the resignation of then-Sheriff Stanley Glanz.

Voters should apply early for absentee ballots Voters in Woods County who want to have absentee ballots mailed to them for the June 28 primary election should apply now, County Election Board Secretary Sandra Koehn said today.

Although the county election board can accept applications for absentee ballots until 5 p.m. on Wednesday, June 22, Koehn urged voters who want to vote by absentee ballot to apply early.

Absentee ballot application forms are available at the County Election Board office located at 410 4th St. Suite C, Alva, OK. An online version of the form can be filled out and submitted electronically at: www.elections.ok.gov. A print form can also be downloaded at that address.

At least two mail transactions must be made. The county election board must mail the ballots to the voter and the voter must return the voted ballots by mail.

Ballots must be in the hands of county election board officials by 7 p.m. on election day to be counted.

Koehn said any registered voter may vote by absentee ballot in any election in which he/she is eligible to vote. However, a voter must be registered and reside at an address within the geographical

boundaries of a school district or a municipality to be eligible to vote in school district or municipal elections.

It is not necessary to give a reason for voting absentee.

“While anyone can vote absentee without giving a reason, the law still provides several advantages to absentee voters in some categories,” Kohen said.

By stating one of the following reasons on their applications, absentee voters can activate special conditions that make it easier for them to use absentee ballots. The reasons are: • Voters who are physically incapacitated and voters who care for physically incapacitated persons who cannot be left unattended may vote absentee. They may apply only by mail, by fax, by email, online or via an agent who is at least 16 years of age and who is not employed by or related within the third degree of consanguinity or affinity to any person whose name appears on the ballot.

• Voters who are confined to nursing homes in the county may vote absentee.

An absentee voting board actually goes to the nursing home a few days before the election, sets up a small polling

place and allows these persons to vote under circumstances similar to those at a regular precinct polling place. They may apply only by mail, by fax, by email, online or via an agent who is at least 16 years of age and who is not employed by or related within the third degree of consanguinity or affinity to any person whose name appears on the ballot.

• Military personnel and residents of the county living overseas and the spouses and dependents of each group are eligible receive absentee ballots.

These voters may apply only by mail, fax or email. Military personnel should contact the voting service officers in their units for application forms and additional information or visit the Federal Voting Assistance Program website (www.fvap. gov/oklahoma) for more information and instructions. Residents of Oklahoma living overseas can obtain the same materials from any United States military installation and from United States embassies and consulates as well as on the FVAP website.

For the June election there will be a Republican ballot, a Libertarian ballot and a City of Waynoka Ballot. Democrats will not have a ballot for this election.

By Justin Juozapavicius TULSA, Okla. (AP) — University of Tulsa trustees are deciding whether to rename the law school because of one founder's ties to the Ku Klux Klan, a proposal that was lauded Tuesday by a civil rights group.

Trustees at the private school will discuss whether to remove John Rogers' name from the law school building during a meeting Wednesday, trustee Sharon Bell told The Associated Press.

Bell — an attorney and the daughter of Rogers' late law partner, William H. Bell — said school administrators have recommended the name be removed, and trustees could vote on the proposal after any discussion.

Rogers was a prominent attorney and philanthropist who helped found the law school in 1943, served for years as its unpaid dean and was a university trustee for decades.

Rogers also helped incorporate the KKK-affiliated Tulsa Benevolent Association, which was founded months after the 1921 Tulsa race riot that left about 300 black residents dead and a thriving section of downtown — known as Black Wall Street — decimated.

Rogers spent about two years in the KKK, which was so popular in Oklahoma that at one point about two-thirds of the state Legislature were members, and politicians running for office actively sought the group's backing.

School administrators recently commissioned a review of all campus buildings named after individuals and Rogers' name was the only one that was flagged as problematic in a report prepared earlier this year, Bell said.

A school spokeswoman declined to

offer any details of Wednesday's meeting, saying only in a statement that "after intensive study and thoughtful deliberation," administrators have made a recommendation to the executive committee of the trustees board.

Nationally, universities and cities, sensitive to the issue of race, have conducted similar reviews. In 2013, Tulsa City Council members voted to rename Tulsa's glitzy arts district, which had been named after Wyatt Tate Brady, the son of a Confederate veteran and KKK member. Today the street is still called Brady, but for the Civil War photographer Mathew Brady.

The proposal to remove Rogers' name was applauded Tuesday by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People.

"I think any time that we find a racist element in our society, in general, we have an obligation to confront those issues and an obligation to make things right," said Garland Pruitt, president of the NAACP's Oklahoma City branch. "If we know of a bad apple and we ignore it and we don't address it, we're just as guilty."

Bell plans to vote against the recommendation, saying that Rogers renounced his membership in the KKK and dedicated the rest of his life to public service.

"The man I knew was not a racist," Bell said in an interview Tuesday. "He had 58 years of learning from his error

and moving forward in a way that clearly left the community of Tulsa a better place."

Bob Blackburn, the executive director of the Oklahoma Historical Society, said he is generally reluctant about moves to change buildings named for people with similar ties as Rogers because it erases a part of history.

"We need to know about the racism, we need to know about the foundation blocks on which we are building a new Oklahoma today, but if we don't understand those foundations, we run the risk of committing those same mistakes," Blackburn said.

By Tim Talley OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The Oklahoma Supreme Court on Tuesday invalidated an initiative petition that calls for a statewide vote on whether to allow wine to be sold in grocery stores.

In a 7-1 decision with one abstention, the Supreme Court ordered that the petition, filed by the Retail Liquor Association of Oklahoma, be stricken from the November general election ballot.

The petition was challenged by the Oklahoma Grocers Association, which alleged the ballot measure unconstitutionally delegates legislative authority and that the written explanation of its effect, called the gist, is insufficient and misleading.

The Supreme Court agreed, ruling

that the petition makes significant changes in the state's liquor laws and that its gist does not provide enough information for voters to make an informed decision.

The Retail Liquor Association's president, Bryan Kerr, owner of Moore Liquor in Moore, said he was disappointed in the high court's ruling.

"That's a shame. We really thought we had a valid petition," Kerr said.

Organizers thought the measure's gist, which is legally required to describe what the petition would do, provided a valid and thorough description of its effect.

"The citizens of Oklahoma won't have the opportunity to vote on what we felt like was a sensible reform of our alcohol laws," Kerr said.

Currently, liquor, wine and beer in

excess of 3.2-percent alcohol can be sold only at package liquor stores, which are strictly licensed and regulated and closed on Sundays.

Among other things, the petition would have allowed grocery stores to qualify for licenses to sell wine for off-premises consumption and would permit retail package liquor stores to sell any item sold in convenience and grocery stores.

But other changes the petition would make "are recognizably absent from the gist," according to the Supreme Court's decision.

The petition prohibits a liquor license from being sold for a package liquor or grocery store within 2,500 feet of an existing store, "making many grocery stores ineligible for a retail grocery wine store license," the decision states.

And only one license could be issued to entities with multiple stores, "again limiting a grocery store's eligibility for a retail grocery wine store license," it says.

Although the initiative petition was invalidated, a similar ballot measure that would permit grocery stores to sell wine and cold, strong beer is pending in the Legislature.

The measure is the result of months of negotiations among alcohol distillers, brewers, wholesalers, distributors and retail groups. A companion bill is reportedly more than 200 pages long.

Most of Oklahoma's liquor laws were developed in the late 1950s and include a variety of statutes and constitutional amendments that cannot be changed without a vote of the people.

Obits

exceeded all. A son, brother, grandson, nephew, uncle and cousin, all of which he was proud to be. Kramer’s life would seem too short to many. His neverending smile and stunning blue eyes will be forever embedded in our hearts.

Kramer had the ability to make others smile during the toughest times and was a friend to everyone he met. His wit and charm would turn the worst into the best.

He had the biggest heart and would give to others even if it meant he would have to go without. Kramer’s favorite verse is “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13).

Kramer loved being outdoors in God’s country. He was an avid hunter and fisherman. His secret passion in life was to live on a ranch, driving a tractor, harvesting wheat and fishing at his pond.

He also enjoyed riding motorcycles, snowboarding, and being at the lake on the boat with friends and family.

During high school Kramer was involved in Goldbug baseball, FFA and FCCLA. For several summers he worked for Tyree Harvesting which helped shape him into a hardworking man. He graduated from Alva High School in

2014. He then attended Northwestern Oklahoma State University. At the time of his death he was working at Garnett Oil Company, serving customers with a smile.

He was preceded in death by three grandfathers, Bill Lewis, Bill Miller and Eugene Marcus; one grandmother, Tavey Wagner Lewis; his great grandmothers, Ida Wagner, Agnes Pemberton, and Gracie B. Miller; and great grandfathers Earl Pemberton and William Miller Sr. and his dog Roscoe.

Kramer is survived by his parents, Peter and Tonja Lewis; two loving sisters, Kamaree Lewis and fiancé, Christopher Hatfield and Kerstie Lewis; his grandmother, Doris Marcus; and one very special nephew, Torin Olyver Cunningham all of Alva; his faithful companion Nuke and special friend Brianne Cherry of Ponca City; numerous relatives and friends.

Memorial contributions may be made through the funeral home to the Town and Country Christian Church Youth.
