History project focuses TOPEKA — Kansas students and their teachers are being encouraged to learn more about Civil War veterans buried in the state’s cemeteries. Details of something called “Sleeping Heroes: The Impact of Civil War Veterans on Kansas Communities” were announced Friday in Topeka. Because so many veterans homesteaded in Kansas after the war, it became known as the Soldiers State. Attorney General Derek

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD “(The EITC) is one tax policy for which there is a very bipartisan approach in most states,” he said. The tax center is called liberal by some conservatives, but Maserov says he disagrees with that. He said the center favors fiscally responsible tax policy. Brownback has said that the EITC is fraught with fraud and that revenue saved from the credit can be used to lure more federal dollars and pay for programs for the poor. But advocates for the poor and children have defended the EITC. “More than 90 percent of Kansas’ EITC dollars go to families with children, and maintaining this tax credit is critical to ensuring that more children do not fall below the poverty line,” said Shannon Cotsoradis, president and chief executive officer of Kansas Action for Children. She said studies estimate 4,000 Kansas children would fall into poverty without the EITC.

PARTICIPANTS IN A BOOKBINDING WORKSHOP at KU’s Watson Library on Saturday learn the basics of creating handmade books. Participants learned four structures of creating bound books without glue, including accordion and stitched books.
Books
A SELECTION OF COMPLETED PROJECTS from the bookbinding workshop.
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A
Participants assembled four different structures: an accordion book, a pamphlet stitch, a sewn book and a tab book. All of the books were constructed without adhesive by using simple tools. On the table in front of each person was a collection of book-making devices: a pair of scissors, needle and thread, assorted paper and a bone folder. “This is in every bookmaker’s tool box,” said Baker wielding the bone folder, an object, sometimes made of bone, that looks like a giant Popsicle stick with a dull edge. The bone maker is used to create a smooth crease onto the folded paper. A cluster of KU students apprenticed in bookbinding walked around the room and hovered over tables, offering help whenever someone bungled a step in the bookcreation process. “I feel like one of my mother’s second-graders,” Billing said. “What I have discovered is that I’m really bad at cutting the paper.” She gestured to the jagged edges of her book pages. It was Cartwright who had prompted the couple to attend the workshop. Cartwright is a graduate student in KU’s English department. He is studying poetry but dabbles in other genres. ”I’m very interested in the art of the book,” Cartwright said. Ingrid Horton also participated in the workshop because of an interest in the history of book production. Horton has a master’s degree in library information science and a doctorate in French literature.
“I’m interested in the history of the book and book bindings and conservation,” she said. A seamstress, Horton preferred the sewn book over the other three. After the bookbinding workshop, the group shuffled down three flights of stairs to take a tour of the Jerry and Katherine Stannard Conservation Laboratory. The hybrid lab, in existence since 1999, houses many bookbinding machines — book presses, job backers, table sheers and backing hammers — some that appear to have been produced before the in-
dustrial revolution. “We have a tool called the guillotine,” Baker said during the tour. “It’s like the (device) from the French Revolution but with a lot more safety features.” Billings was happy she attended the event, seeing gift potential in the book-making methods she learned at the workshop. “It would be really fun to (use this skill) to make personalized, miniature anthologies of poetry,” Billing said. “You could totally use this to make someone a high-tech greeting card.”
