Lyon County Historical Facts
Provided by Lyon County Historical Society
The College Building in Hartford was originally
founded as the Hartford Collegiate Institute in
1861. The Neosho Valley Educational Association
elected a board for the purpose of locating and
founding an institution of learning to prepare students for Baker University. The school was sponsored by the Methodist Church, and classes were
first offered in October of 1863. When a schism developed between the Methodist North and Methodist South churches, it became difficult to maintain
a school. Local classes met on the lower floor for
a time. Once Hartford established a four-year high
school, those classes met in the old college building. Over the years the building has also been used
for church meetings, senior citizen dinners, Boy
Scouts, and other activities.
James Lusk of the Ruggles neighborhood south of
the Neosho River Bridge south of Americus had to
blow out candles on four cakes when he celebrated
his 86th birthday in 1940. The cakes were presented by Mrs. Ross Disney, Mrs. Vol Peak of Americus, Mrs. V.W. Goodyear of Topeka, and Mrs.
Frank Sloan of Newton. Lusk and his wife were
married in 1876 in Iowa before coming to Kansas
in 1881. Their prairie schooner was ferried across
the Missouri River at Kansas City. While living
in Clark County in a sod house, they experienced
the last big Indian scare in Kansas and the historymaking blizzard of 1885-1886. They moved to the
Ruggles neighborhood in 1897. Mrs. Lusk died
just days after her husband’s birthday party.

Open Enrollment Time
by
Rhonda Gordon,
Lyon County Extension Office
We are hearing a
lot in the news about
open enrollment time
for Medicare Part D
plans. Open Enrollment for Medicare Part
D runs from October
15th to December 7th
each year, for coverage that begins January
1st and runs the whole
year. Everyone should
shop their Part D plan
every year. If you don’t
want to make changes
that is fine, but make
an informed decision.
There are changes to
the plans every year
and you don’t want any
surprises come January
1st of 2015.
Medicare offers prescription drug coverage to everyone with
Medicare. Even if you
don’t take many or any
prescriptions now, you
should consider joining a Medicare drug
plan. If you decided
not to join a Medicare
drug plan when you are
first eligible and you
don’t have other creditable prescription drug
coverage, or you don’t
get Extra Help, you will
pay a late enrollment
penalty if you join a
plan later.
What does creditable
coverage mean? Creditable coverage means
you have other sources
of drug coverage. You
have coverage with
a current or former
employer or union,
you might have coverage with the Tricare or
the Veteran Affairs. If
your current coverage
is at least as good as the
Medicare Part D plan
you choose then you
are considered to have
creditable coverage.
To get Medicare
prescription drug
coverage, you must
join a plan run by an
insurance company or
other private company
approved by Medicare.
Each plan can vary in
cost and specific drugs
covered. For the 2015
Part D plans there are
currently 28 plans in
our area.
If you currently have
employer or union
coverage check with
your benefits administrator before you make
any changes, or before
you sign up for other
coverage. If you drop
your employer or union
coverage you might not
be able to get it back.
Also, you may not be
able to drop prescription drug coverage
without dropping your
health insurance (doctor and hospital coverage). Make sure you
check before you make
changes with your benefits administrator.
You are eligible for
special enrollment periods for a Medicare Part
D plan if you move out
of your plans service
area. Generally speaking this means a permanent move to another
state. If you winter in
another state you want
to make sure you pick
a plan that has national
coverage. Not all plans
offer national coverage, so if you do a lot of
traveling or you winter
in another state keep
these things in mind.
Another special enrollment period would
be if you lose creditable
coverage like you retire
mid-year of 2015. You
would need to pick up
coverage before the
end of your creditable
coverage. If you or a
person you care for
are a resident of a long
term care facility, you
are eligible to change
your cover every month
as your prescriptions
change. If you have
Medicaid or qualify for
Extra Help then you
also are eligible for special enrollment periods.
You should shop
your Medicare Part D
plan every year October
15th to December 7th.
If you decide to make a
switch, it is easy. Your
old Medicare drug
plan coverage will end
when your new drug
plan begins which is on
January 1st of the new
calendar year. You will
get a letter from your
new Medicare Part D
plan stating when your
coverage starts.

ALLEN TIDINGS,
NOVEMBER 1, 1888
- Guy Serviss had a
valuable team of horses
stolen from his pasture
near Emporia a week
ago. They were recovered at Osage City
Monday.
- Thomas McLinden, an
unfortunate lad with a
broken arm, was soliciting aid in our town last
Saturday to enable him
to get to his home at
Clay Center.
- This point would be
an excellent vocation
for an elevator and feed
mill. Such an institution
would not only pay the
proprietor but would
greatly help all other
branches of trade in our
city. Let us take steps to
secure one immediately.
- Perhaps the most
important event that has
occurred in this city for
some time was the occasion of the 21st birthday
of our friend Mr. George
Grimsley which occurred last Saturday. The
event was celebrated in
an appropriate manner
with his friends from
near and far. George
is a jolly good fellow,
aspires to be somebody,
and is certainly more of
a man today than he was
21 years ago.

Big Brothers Big Sisters
Match of the Month
Please meet our November match of the
month, Josh and Tyce!
Josh, who is the store
manager of Shoe Sensation said, “I decided to
volunteer because I wanted
to learn how to be a good
male figure in someone’s
life.” Josh will be expecting a son soon and said he
wanted to learn firsthand
how to be a good Big
Brother because he thinks
it directly applies to being
a good father. Josh and
Tyce’s favorite memory of
their match so far is when
they were able to go see the
new Teenage Mutant Ninja
Turtles movie this summer.
When asked, Josh said, “I
would describe my little
as energetic, funny and
kind.” Tyce, a 2nd grader in
Emporia said his favorite
things to do with his Big
Brother is playing arcade
games, like air hockey, and
playing tetherball. Tyce
described Josh as awesome,
nice and funny. His favorite
part about being involved
in BBBSFH is getting to
do fun activities with Josh.
Josh is a great volunteer
for BBBSFH and is very
passionate about his time
with Tyce. He told us that
he is very thankful for this
match and really enjoys
making a difference in
Tyce’s life. If you have ever
considered mentoring or
would like to learn more
please call us at (620) 3425645! Page 11

Treasures
Hello,
I work at an archaeological contracting
company. We excavated
a mug from a historic
site in Mississippi and
are having trouble
identifying and dating
it. We believe it to be
ironstone with a black
transfer print with what
we believe to be the image of Abraham Lincoln
and an unidentified
man on one side and
a strange game being
played on the other. The
phrase "We be loggerheads three" is across
the top. The alphabet is
molded along the rim.
We are stumped! Can
you tell me anything
about this artifact?
Thank you,
K. W.
Dear K. W.:
This is one of the
more curious requests
we have received in
our long career and it
certainly intrigued and
challenged us.
Perhaps we should
begin by saying this is
a child's alphabet mug,
or an ABC mug as it is
more commonly called.
These started being
made in the 1820s, and
production continued
through the 1860s.
That is not to say
these alphabet wares
were not made later,
because they were
popular once again in
the late 19th century
and early 20th centuries. The earliest of
these were made from
creamware (a whitish or
cream-colored earthen-
ware sometimes called
"Queensware"), which
was introduced in the
1740s and continued
to be made well into
the 19th century with
production revived by
Wedgwood.
Most ABC plates and
mugs _ the plates are far
more commonly found
than the mugs _ were
made from ironstone,
which was introduced
by Mason's and was
patented In July 1813
as Mason's Patent
Ironstone China. Many
subsequent potters
tried to copy this tough
and durable ware and
named it such things as
"Stone China," "Opaque
China," and "Granite
China."
This ware was most
popular from the 1830s
through the 1890s, and
we believe this mug is
from the earlier portion
of this time spread. But
does it have anything
whatsoever to do with
Abraham Lincoln? We
doubt it, and it would
have helped us to know
why K. W. thought so.
The figure does indeed resemble the 16th
president of the United
States, but this cup is
English in origin and
was intended for use by
a child, and we doubt a
political contest would
have interested most
children of the day. "We
be loggerheads three"
probably does not refer
to the election of 1860,
in which there were
actually four U.S. presidential contenders _
Abraham Lincoln, John
Breckinridge, John Bell
and Stephen Douglas
(the 1864 presidential
election only had two
candidates, Lincoln and
George McClellan).
Other than turtles
and tools, the term
"loggerheads" refers to
a blockhead or stupid
person and comes from
the English word "logger," a block of wood.
It also means to be in
a state of quarrelsome
disagreement. In addition, Loggerheads is
the name of a village
in Denbighshire, Wales
and one in Staffordshire, England.
We are not sure what
the actual game being
played on this mug is
(the contestants seem
to be wielding large
brushes _ so a mug
fight?), but we think
the caption may be (at
least in part) "contest of
honor." But too much is
missing to be positive.
In summation, this is
a really nice and rare
child's ironstone ABC
mug from the 185060s, but we doubt that
the image on the front
is that of Abraham
Lincoln. The value, of
course, is historic rather
than monetary.

The Medicare Part D
plan premium varies depending on which plan
you choose. You need
to compare the Part D
plans by which plan
will cover all of your
prescription drugs for
the year and total cost
to you for the year. It
is hard to compare the
plans just based on the
monthly premium, you
really need to plug all
your prescription drugs
into the plan finder and
see which plan is best
for you based on the
total cost for the year.
Medicare Part D
plans change their
formularies each year,
so just because the plan
worked for you last year
doesn’t mean that is
will be best plan for you
next year. It is so important for people to shop
their plan every year.
The people I have seen
so far this year about
half had made a change
to save themselves money. The biggest savings
I have seen so far this
year is just over $5,000
dollars for the year, and
the smallest is about
$30.00. A savings is a
savings, it doesn’t cost
anything to shop your
Medicare Part D plan.
There are a couple
of places you can get

plans The Department
of Aging, Doug Steuve
and his crew are taking
appointments call them

Chase County Museum Messenger
By Derrick Doty,
Chase County Historical Museum
Director
The Burnley Memorial Library in Cottonwood Falls recently
gifted us with some
models that have been
housed at the library
for about as long as
anyone can remember.
Two of the items, a
log cabin and covered
wagon, are identified
as having been made
by the Works Progress
Administration shop in
Emporia. The Works Progress
Administration was
part of the New Deal
legislation enacted
by President Franklin
Roosevelt in 1935. The
WPA was responsible
for building many pub-
lic structures such as
libraries, bridges and
courthouses. The WPA
also had projects for the
arts. Murals were painted and models, such as
the ones we now have
on display, were made
by crafters and sent to
museums and libraries all over the state.
The project provided
employment for people
and enhanced communities by preserving and
promoting art, history
and culture. At its peak,
the WPA employed
over 50,000 Kansans. In
1943 the program was
brought to a close due
to the war which not
only took men away to
fill the ranks, but also
created employment for
workers.
Beside the cabin and
wagon we also have a
loom, spinning wheel
and what we think is
a water pump. A tag
on the bottom of the
loom reads ‘Loom
completed/Date 12/13
No__’. So it appears the
loom was made in 1913
long before the WPA
and therefore has no
connection with that
project.
The Chase County
Historical Society &
Museum is pleased to
announce that much
needed work on our
electrical will soon
be done thanks to a
grant from the Chase
County Community
Fund and money from
the County Building
Fund. The money from
the CCC Fund will
complete phase one of
the work which will be
installation of lights
and outlets in the first
floor work and store
room. Once complete,
this will allow staff
and researchers better
work area for viewing,
handling, photographing and processing
artifacts and will ensure
the safety and preservation of artifacts as well.
UV filters will also be
purchased to minimize
damage caused by florescent lighting. Money
from the County Building Fund will complete
phase two which will
add lighting and outlets to the second floor
where it is planned in
the future to have more
display area.
Our sincerest gratitude and thanks to
both the Chase County
Community Fund and
the Commissioners for
their assistance in making these improvements
possible. Tuesday, November 11, 2014
