Nazareth Borough Council discusses New technology For police cars
By JUSTIN SWEITZER Multiple storylines surfaced at Nazareth Borough Council’s March 30 workshop meeting, with the police department taking center stage as they prepared to unveil newly-designed patches, symbols and uniforms for their department while looking to implement new technology in their police cars. In the police committee report, Councilman Carl Fischl noted that council has around $10,000 leftover for technology-related upgrades for the police depart-

Ahart’s Market Sponsors annual Egg hunt in Bath
By KERI LINDENMUTH Children of all ages and their families excitedly gathered in the field next to Ahart’s Market in Bath for the borough’s annual egg hunt, sponsored by the market. The event was to be held on Saturday, April 1. However, the week’s heavy rain and chilly wind
forced the event to be delayed until Sunday, April 2. The new date turned out to be a much better day for egg hunting. The sun was bright, the air was warm and the turnout of area residents was impressive. Continued on page 2
ment. “We’re going to need approximately $4,600 to $4,800, and we’re hoping everyone would be in agreement to split it with the technology and the police,” Fischl said. “We’re going to put that $10,000 toward the purchase of new bright system computers for our four patrol cars,” Councilman Brian Regn said. “The nice thing about these computers is that the officers will be able to just swipe the driver’s license and Continued on page 11

Slate- The Miracle Stone (Originally published in 2002)
In this column, a native of Chapman’s Quarries takes us back to the old quarry. The George family came to work in the slate industry from Cornwall, England. Mr. Joseph George kindly shared some memories with me from the “Slate-Miracle Stone” article, which he wrote for the Borough of Chapman’s Historical Society. The slate deposits at Chapman’s are solid to unknown depth. The quarries were worked to a depth
of about 200 to 250 feet. Opening a quarry means removing the surface soil and shale down to the solid blue slate. Drilling holes by hand for blasting with dynamite was much improved with pneumatic drills. Core cutting machines and endless wire saws freed sides and ends, enabling blocks to be cut into more workable shapes, and blasting was eliminated. Water and sand were Continued on page 4

Over a hundred excited children lined up in the parking lot and waited to fill their empty bags, baskets and buckets with the colorful eggs sprawled around the adjacent field. The Easter Bunny hugged and took pictures with the participants before the Bath Volunteer Fire Department kicked off the event by honking one of its fire truck’s loud air horns. There were four different age groups: walking-3, 4-6, 7-9, and 10-12. Altogether, there were more than 4,760 eggs up for grabs. In each age group, there were three winning eggs somewhere in the field. The lucky child to find one of the eggs walked away with a special prize. Prizes included gift baskets filled with goodies, gift certificates for local restaurants and shops, and toys like a basketball hoop and a VTech motorbike. The event and its many prizes were made possible thanks to a wide group of generous community businesses and local Boy Scout and Girl Scout Troops. The event ended up being a great way for the Borough of Bath to kick off spring.

I have made many attempts in the past few months to put pen to paper and come up with a well-intentioned article about developing peace of mind. It hasn’t been easy. This is a tough subject to cover as this issue is so multifaceted yet we need to start the conversation. I do not presume that this will be an end all guide to obtaining peace of mind. Furthermore, I believe this discussion will have more than a few “holes” in it. However, it is better to start discussing this extremely sensitive topic rather than keeping ourselves in self-imposed bondage any longer. If this week’s Natural Perspectives™ series helps just one person along the path, then it is worth it. With that said, please understand that your brain is different

than your mind. The brain is an actual physical organ. I have had the honor of learning and studying the brain and holding one in my hands. The mind is something different. I am working from the premise and belief that we are a spiri, that we have a soul and we dwell in this physical body. Furthermore, the soul is made up of our mind,

will and emotions. So without debating theology at this point, let me simply make the case that our mind, for all intent and purpose, is that part of us that is real yet not necessarily in the physical or able to touch. Perhaps it is easier to say, at the very least, that the functioning that occurs within the brain is the working mind. Almost likened to the combustion (mind) that takes place inside the engine block (brain) of a vehicle. The dictionary definition is: The element of a person that enables them to be aware of the world and their experiences, to think, and to feel; the faculty of consciousness and thought. This alone requires further discussion, let’s leave it there for now. If there is one thing that is clear, it is that all of us would like to obtain and maintain peace within our own minds however you define it. I say “all” as we must view peace of mind as an irContinued on page 4

used in the early sawing process. An ideal block would have a rectangular shape and measure two to four feet wide, six feet long and a foot or more thick. Splittable pieces were called eighters, a slab of slate one and a half inch thick and 10x13 inches wide. They were taken to a shanty to be split to a thickness of 3/16 of an inch. All the blocks were graded before they were taken to shanty. A shanty of Chapman’s Quarry was composed of a splitter and dresser. Usually the splitter was a veteran slater, who directed the

A description of a day’s “journey” at Chapman’s in 1940 follows: The quarry operated on steam power to hoist the heavy blocks from the hole, and steam whistles regulated the working hours. They blew at 7 a.m. and noon, at 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. The whistles governed the action at the quarry, the school and the whole community. The slabs called eighters were split lengthwise with tools, gouge, chisel and hammer. Skill was acquired by experience, strength, patience and a steady hand. They were ingredients for
these splitters. After the splitting, the slate was “dressed” to a profitable size. The “dressing” machine had a knife with an up and down movement. Cutting slate to a size of about 3/8 of an inch, the most common sizes were 12x14, 11x22, 10x20, 12x18, 10x18, 9x18, 12x16 and 6x12. There were usually two grades of slate. No. 1 had no rough ribbons or roughs. Slates were separated by size and carried by wheelbarrow to the “bank” for storage. The splitters and dressers were paid by the piece rate determined by a count and the approval of an inspector. They were paid every other Friday in cash and often by the treasurer of the company. A square of slate is the number of slates required to roof a tenfoot area. The number of slates used depended on the size. Two hundred, two-men shanties making five squares a day would turn out one million slates a week. In addition to roofing, black board tiles, windowsills, curbstones were produced, along with mountains of waste. Mr. Joseph George worked at the quarry for five years. Even when he later worked at Bethlehem Steel, he would help out at the quarry. Today he says, “I loved slate and working there. Too bad the skill of the slate splitter is gone from Chapman’s, when ‘slate’ was Chapman’s.” Thanks to Ethel and Joseph George for helping us remember the days of “slate” in Chapman’s. Next time: We visit the Chapman Quarries United Methodist Church.

refutable desire of human nature. Who wouldn’t want to have peace within their inner self? To not seek peace works against the natural order of things. The problem is we each have different perspectives on what peace of mind is, and also on how we can go about obtaining this seemingly elusive peace within. Some feel they will never be at peace. “Don’t believe this lie,” you tell yourself. We all understand that there are many reasons we could lack peace within our minds. The list of potentials appears endless. So if this is true, how do we find the peace we are looking for?
Is it a different approach every single time? Does it start with recognizing recurring strongholds in our life or is it different altogether? That’s the challenging part, isn’t it? There’s no easy answer here in the least bit. Clearly a multi-billion dollar drug industry has risen up to “assist” people in obtaining peace of mind. Others consume alcohol in hopes of garnering peace of mind, or at the very least not have to think about what they need to think about. Some may overindulge in eating in hopes of being mentally comforted by food. Others perhaps run from their own peace of mind discussion by throwing themselves into work, hobbies, or whatever else they see fit to do. For sure, we are all aware of street drugs, which are in epidemic proportions. Can we say that many of these individuals are searching for something to give them peace of mind, albeit temporary and damaging? Does it surprise you in the least that those who suffer from anxiety and depression just want to sleep and get away from their own thoughts? While I do see how these means get the desired effect on the “thinking” brain, I am not sure it helps the “mind.” There has to be more to it. Again, this is hard stuff we are talking about. If we cannot have peace within our own mind, how would we ever achieve peace with everyone else and everything that we are exposed to on a daily basis? I don’t think we can. Simply take stock of the world around us for a moment. Do you feel it is at peace at all? Has it ever been? Having an interest in history, I can tell you with my limited knowledge that wars have been waged since recorded time. I suspect it always will. How much more so will battles be waged on the inside? I wouldn’t tell you it is difficult to obtain peace of mind, but I also won’t tell you it is easy, as clearly we each have our own unique set of issues and circumstances we need to face. Give this some thought and we will continue next time. My best to you. “Natural Perspectives” is a health commentary only and does not claim to diagnose and/ or make treatment recommendations.

Mako bill to Implement Financial best Practices for Municipal Authorities Submitted by
TRACY POLOVICK Rep. Zach Mako (R-Lehigh/ Northampton) today introduced legislation that would require municipal authorities to use a system of financial best practices when handling the money they collect. “Municipal authorities are collecting a significant amount of money each month from their customers,” said Mako. “It is important that systems are in place to make sure it is deposited in the correct location, appropriate expenditures are paid and nothing is misappropriated.” House Bill 1034 would make municipal authorities remove any individual names from municipal accounts, create a standardized procedure for the handling of an authority’s funds, and require annual audits and fiscal reports to be presented to the authority board. The bill is expected to be referred to the House Local Government Committee. The 183rd District includes South Whitehall (part), Washington and Whitehall (part) townships and Slatington Borough in Lehigh County. It also consists of Allen, Lehigh and Moore (part) townships, and North Catasauqua, Northampton and Walnutport boroughs in Northampton County.

Four ways to Be the best Business in Town
Easter shopping must be done on Saturday. The baskets need to be filled; I need to think about the ham, the family and scheduling Easter dinner. I look at all the little items and chocolates that might go in the basket. At the store, no less than three employees go out of their way to say “hello” to me. I thought, “that never happens,” and one of the employees asks if she might help me find something. Time to check out, the gal at the register was young and extremely friendly. Her boss came up to her and teased her about disappearing one day, they both laughed, he acknowledged me and went off to another cashier. Halley, I say, “It’s really nice to be in such a friendly store, it so rarely happens.” She responds, get ready for this, she says, “I love it here so much some days I don’t want to go home.” She went on to say that she was a student at Kutztown University and an intern at this store. She also said she will have a manager’s position when she graduates in June. I had to ask, “What makes this store provide incredible customer service and why are you so excited about having a full time position?”
1. Positive company culture. 2. Expectations are high. 3. Training. 4. Focus on the customer.
Can you imagine shopping at a place where employees love working there so much they don't want to go home some days? Can you imagine being the best business in town?

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip This coming Sunday is Palm Sunday, and then Holy Week will be complete with Easter Sunday. A wonderful time of year…Last week started a round of egg hunts. There are so many that I can’t keep up with ‘em. Not so for the young’uns. They won’t miss any of ‘em. Good luck, kids. I remember when we had outdoor family egg hunts, when the weather was good. But when it was rainy (or maybe it snowed), the hunts were just as exciting indoors when the kids looked under lamps, pillows or on window sills, any place Mom and Dad thought was a good hiding place. Have fun, kids!... The Christ Church dart baseball team fell into second place last week. I hope they did better this Monday. I had a feeling about last week, when they lost to Hecktown and Salem Lutheran played Farmersville, a team that’s been struggling. No games during Holy Week, so hopefully the week off will give ‘em arm
strength, and help ‘em win…The Phillies baseball season got a great start on Monday when they won 4-3 in Cincinnati. Here’s hoping for a big winning season. TP says they’re on their way to 162-0. Not sure about that, but maybe they can even make the post-season playoffs. The New York Mets and Washington Nationals won, too, so the battle is on for a long summer season…Won a pork loin at East Bath Rod & Gun Club last Sunday. Now the Bath Fire Co. Social Club has a ham raffle this Saturday. If I win again, either the loin or a ham will go in the freezer. Didn’t expect to win the loin, so Elmira had to switch the recipes she was gonna use for trimmings at our Easter dinner. Some people are lucky and win every time. That’s a first for me… Route 22 is having even more bumper to bumper traffic with the bridge construction. Ye Ed’s kids who live down in the Atlanta area are gonna have more of a driving nightmare with a section of bridge knocked out with a fire. They use that bridge going to and from work every day, I hear… The weather has been fairly good. Let’s hope it’s nice for the Easter holiday.

NORTHAMPTON AREA
‘Anything Goes’ at Northampton Area High School by KERI LINDENMUTH Since it debuted on Broadway in 1934, the Tony Award-winning musical “Anything Goes” has become a fast favorite of theatergoers around the world. Broadway stars like Patti LuPone, Sutton Foster, and Joel Grey have all starred in the stage production, while Bing Crosby played the leading man in two different film adaptions of the musical. Now, students at Northampton Area High School have brought the entertaining production and its Cole Porter score to life in their spring musical, a 2017 Freddy Award contender. In the musical, Wall Street worker Billy
Crocker, in love with debutante Hope Harcourt, stows away on an ocean liner in order to stop the impending wedding between Harcourt and wealthy Englishman Lord Evelyn Oakleigh. He recruits best friend, nightclub singer Reno Sweeney, and runaway gangster Moonface Martin to help. What results is a madcap comedy and sweet love story, complete with memorable music, big laughs, dramatic love triangles, sparkling costumes, and spirited tap routines. Northampton’s production was directed by Gianna Beleno. It starred senior Maya Costanzo as Sweeney, sophomore Austin

Fleury as Crocker, senior Hannah Card as Harcourt, junior Lane Markulics as Oakleigh, sophomore Brandon Costanzo as Martin, and senior Francesca Boschi as Martin’s sidekick Erma. All of the students brought the outrageously fun group of characters to life on stage and each shined in their performances. Maya Costanzo opened the show with the Porter standard “I Get a Kick Out of You,” while her duet of “You’re the Top” with Fluery made the audience smile and cheer. Fluery and Card also shared the stage for several sweet duets, including performances of the classics “It’s De-Lovely” and “All Through the Night.” In addition to the love ballads, fun numbers brought plenty of laughs to the audience. Markulics seemed to be having great fun (as did the crowd) when he tangoed across the stage during “The Gypsy in Me,” while Boschi warned a quartet of sailors to stay away in “Buddy Beware.” Brandon Costanzo’s “Be Like the Bluebird” made the audience laugh (even if it did not seem to cheer up Crocker, imprisoned in the brig toward the end of the second act). Brandon Costanzo also shared the stage with his sister, Maya, for an enthusiastic performance of “Friendship.” The rest of the ensemble also did a stellar job, especially during the group numbers of “Bon Voyage,” “Blow, Gabriel, Blow,” and the show-stopping “Anything Goes,” which featured a long tap routine by the students. In her director’s note, Beleno shared that tap dancing was something very new to the students. However, it was clear to audience members that cast’s practice and rehearsals really paid off. As one Northampton resident remarked during the show’s intermission following the big number: “The dance routine was really great.” The entire cast was all smiles, clearly enjoying the chance to showcase their talents and perform in such a popular and fun show. Their hard work was evident and made a lasting impression on members of the audience. “I think they did great, [especially] the way they took on the characters,” said another Northampton resident whose children, now graduated, were
in the school’s drama club. As a result, she says she can appreciate the dedication these students have, working nearly every day throughout a majority of the school year to perform several shows for only one weekend. Northampton students in the audience were also there to cheer on their classmates. One, a sophomore at the high school, remarked on how “proud” she was to see her friends in the cast,
orchestra, and crew put on such a great show. When people go to the theater for the evening, they are looking for an escape. The cast, crew, and orchestra, composed entirely of students, as well as the team of directors, parents, and other community members alongside them, helped audience members do just that.The Freddy Awards will be broadcast on Thursday, May 25 at 7 p.m. on WFMZ.

registration card into the computer. Basically, everything will be already filled in on the blanks so they can do a quick check of the status of the person or vehicle really quickly.” Regn, who heads the technology committee, noted that the system is very compatible with the system in place at the borough’s 134 S. Main Street police headquarters. He also noted that the iPads that are currently used were only a “stopgap measure” and that the borough didn’t have

the funds to install more fitting technology at the time of their implementation. According to Regn, $2,310.18 will come from the technology budget, with the police committee budget paying the other half of the bill. Regn also said that installation costs outweigh the costs of the computers themselves. Nazareth Police Commissioner Randall Miller said the system is reasonably priced, and it will considerably reduce the amount of time spent logging information at various scenes. “The amount of time it will save will be staggering,” said Miller. Also of note from the workshop meeting was the development that Keller Zoning will not be submitting a bid to continue as the borough’s zoning and code enforcement officials. Zoning Administrator Dennis Huth said it was clear that the borough was not completely satisfied with Keller Zoning’s work. “We don’t want any controversy, any debate, council obviously wasn’t happy with something, and that’s fine, that’s your option to go out to bid,” Huth said. “On a personal level, I’m at a point in time where I’m going to focus more on building code.” Huth said building code is directly linked to his previous work experience, as he has a background in electrical engineering. “I grew up in town here, I graduated from the high school, I bleed blue, and I will continue to bleed blue,” Huth said. “I know that I’ll be leaving your borough safer; I’m sure of that.”

“None Other Name”
A group of people were gathered around a blind man who had seated himself on the bridge over a canal in the city of London. He was reading from a Braille Bible. A man on his way home from the city was led by curiosity to the edge of the group and heard the blind man reading from Acts 4:12, “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name…” Just then the blind man lost his place, and while trying to find it with his finger, kept repeating the last clause he had read, “None other name—none other name—none other name.” Some of the people smiled at the blind man’s embarrassment, but the man who had just joined himself to the group went on his way thinking deeply. He had lately become convinced that he was a sinner, and had been trying in many ways to obtain peace of mind. He made new resolutions, altered his habits, and read prayers, but all were ineffectual to relieve his conscience of its load. The words of the blind man kept ringing in his ears all that evening and the next day. All at once it dawned upon his consciousness. “I see it all now. I have been trying to be saved by my own works, my repentance, my prayers—my reformation alone. It is Jesus alone Who can save; for there is ’none other name—none other name—none other name, under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved!’” Philippians 2:9-11 declares of Jesus that God has “given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus… every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.” One becomes a child of God only through the name of Jesus, “But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name” (John 1:12). See www.naog.ws/theway.htm for more on this biblical truth.

Allen Township Approves Amendments To zoning Ordinance
By KERI LINDENMUTH At its most recent meeting on Tuesday, March 28, the Allen Township Board of Supervisors approved a series of amendments to its existing zoning ordinance. The last time the ordinance had been so heavily revised was in the year 2000. The township’s planning commission started the process of amending the township’s zoning ordinance last September. The amendments have gone through several drafts based on feedback from the Lehigh Valley Planning Commission. Township Solicitor B. Lincoln Treadwell, Jr. briefed supervisors on the nearly 100-page amendment to the existing zoning ordinance, which includes updated uses and new definitions to better match what he describes as “the way people build things today.” Some of those new changes include an increase of maximum lot percentage to 70 percent from 60 percent, a restriction of human occupancy above 35 feet in buildings in the industrial/commercial district, and a requirement that all traffic impact studies include figures for the time between 3 p.m. and 6 p.m. In addition, definitions were revised, made clearer, or added for a variety of uses, including nursing home use, public water and sewer use, and a nightclub use, which never before had existed in the township’s zoning ordinance. While there were many changes to the ordinance, it was the height of potential warehouses in the township’s large industrial/commercial districts that caused the most concern for members of the public and Supervisor Dale Hassler. Gary Krill, Assistant Chief of the Allen Township Fire Company, voiced his concerns about protecting buildings above 35 feet in the case of a fire. Even before the new ordinance, buildings in industrial districts were permitted to be as high as 60 feet. Under the new ordinance, they will be allowed in industrial/commercial districts with supervisors’ approval. Krill said that the township does not have the equipment it needs to protect a structure higher than 35 feet. “Deep in my heart, I feel you should not be putting a building up where you cannot protect it from a fire,” he told supervisors. Vice Chairman of the Board of Supervisors and current fire chief Dale Hassler agreed. “I feel that 35 feet is ample to what we have in this township,” he said. Hassler not only cited fire safety, but the fact that 60 foot warehouses will end up “destroying our [the township’s] skyline forever.” “A lot of us do not want to see
G O NGGOO!! !
warehouses,” remarked Supervisor Gary Behler. “[But] we have to prepare for every possible use… legally we do not have a choice.” When it came time for supervisors to vote for the zoning ordinance amendment, Hassler was the sole opposing vote. The Board of Supervisors passed the
amendment 3-1. Supervisors also unanimously passed a SALDO amendment that will change the paving compaction requirements for future roadways. In addition, supervisors also discussed possibly enforcing dates during which paving can be done, a topic which was also broached by supervisors dur-
ing a meeting last month. “I think as a township, we should have our own…timeframe [for when paving can be completed],” said Behler. Hassler agreed, arguing, “If you set a date…you should not have to be waiting until the last minute to get a job.”
