Borough of Bath Celebrates the holidays
By KERI LINDENMUTH The dreary weather could not dampen the holiday spirit in the Borough of Bath. On Sunday, December 2, borough residents and elected officials came out to Monocacy Creek Park to kick off the holiday season with the borough’s annual Christmas tree lighting. The tree, donated by Unangst Tree Farm in 2014 and decorated by the Bath Lions Club, was lit by Robert Fields, a lifelong resident of Bath who served as president of the Bath Borough Council, was
on the Colonial Regional Police Department Commission, and was instrumental in erecting the symbolic clock in the borough’s center. Continued on page 7

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual
Subluxation
When I was ten I received my very first life changing chiropractic adjustment. I can still feel Dr. Napoli’s certain hands deliver an unbelievable subluxation correction. Life changing. Soul changing. An innate transformation. Dr. Napoli adjusted my young spine, specifically the subluxations (also known as misalignments), in my upper cervical spine, thereby relieving the nerve interference caused by a “hard bone on a soft nerve.” When I came to understand just how important it is for our God-given innate intelligence to be able to communicate freely with the rest of the body, I knew that I wanted to receive chiropractic care for the rest of my life. I became aware that our mental impulses flow from brain tissue into the sympathetic and para sympathetic nerve tissue, down the spinal cord, and out along the

Helping for 20 years peripheral nerves. In doing so, these impulses properly feed and communicate with every gland, organ, and tissue the way God intended. Amazing. It is an irrefutable truth that God has provided for the indwelling of life within us, our innate intelligence if you will, and that this intelligence

flows from our brains down to the rest of our body. Many decades later as a practicing chiropractor, I hold true that should anything slow down, cut off, impinge upon, or hinder the flow of nerve impulse and this beautiful feedback communication then we will suffer from various forms of disease. I believe that the power of the innate intelligence that resides in the body is the same intelligence that heals the body. This is not some mystical thing. It is incredible truth. This master intelligence, freely given by God, indwells us. Without it we die. Again, this life giving intelligence must find its way to every, and I repeat every gland, organ, and tissue of the human body, your body. Your thyroid, heart, eyes, sweat glands, hair follicles, ovaries, intestines, muscle, joints, ligaments, skin, liver, pancreas, capillaries, cells, everything, requires innate to thrive. This is incredible. Can you see this as a central truth? It is. What is startling is that this
flow of living energy can be shut down, shut off, or minimized by disruption to the spinal cord or spinal nerves. A fracture of a vertebral bone can sever, paralyze, and kill the human body. We know this as an undisputable fact. We also know as an undisputable fact that should any pressure or interference bear on nerves then wherever the nerve terminates, the area will not re-

fully function you need your life force, your innate, washing over everything at all times. What I specialize in is detecting and correcting spinal subluxations that disrupt the func-
tioning of innate. Having a ten percent reduction in heart function is not good. Having a twenty percent reduction in adrenal function is not good. A fifty percent reduction in stomach eyes, ears, or liver function is the definition of sickness. Please know taking a pill, potion, elixir, stretching, lifting weights, et al will not restore the subluxated vertebrae back to the
proper and correct alignment. Only a highly specific chiropractic adjustment can do that. Once you understand that subluxations can lead to pain, disease, poor health, abnormal function, and sickness you grasp just how important receiving regular chiropractic corrections are for you and every member of your family.

Stop in the name Of customer Service Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday- no gifts, just family, friends and fun. And, I especially like the way the community gives back on Giving Tuesday. Angel 34, Operation Gold Snowflake, and The Edge Restaurant in Bethlehem are hosting a Giving Back Fundraiser for the Lehigh Valley’s beloved Meals on Wheels. After all of our charitable planning, we got in the car and took off for our mini Thanksgiving vacation. Stopping for breakfast, I saw they had decaf Earl Grey tea. I love Earl Grey so I ordered it. The piping hot decanter was dropped off at my table with a few tea bags. I looked for the Earl and did not see it. The waitress ran by the table so fast you could barely see her. I said, “Excuse me.” No answer, she was gone with the wind. I saw a hostess nearby and waved her over. She was friendly and I told her that I ordered Earl Grey tea but there was none in the basket. She said, “Oh, we don’t serve it anymore.” I said, “Well it’s on the menu.” She offered to double check. She came back and told me that they didn’t serve it anymore. I asked why the waitress took my order and served me tea I did not order. She sent the server over to the table. She clearly (body language) didn’t have time for our table. I asked why she took my order for Earl Grey tea when it’s
Allen Township Supervisors discuss Possible trash collection changes By KERI LINDENMUTH During their Tuesday, November 27 meeting, the Allen Township Board of Supervisors discussed possible changes to the future of trash collection in the township. Following a pre-bid meeting with interested haulers for 2019, the township is debating whether breaking up the municipality into zones would help streamline services and give residents a break in garbage fees. Township manager Ilene Eckhart explained that some haulers would like to see this change in the township. Splitting the township into different zones, with trash collection on different days, would alleviate the frustration residents have when their property is skipped over. “Invariably, there is always a miss,” said Eckhart. “[But] a truck would still be in the township.” Breaking the township into zones would also reduce the cost
of the trash collection contract. “The more flexible we are, the better off we are going to be,” agreed Supervisor Gary Behler. However, some supervisors worried about confusing residents. Supervisor Larry Oberly said the zones would have to be broken up by a common delineator that everyone would understand, like Route 329. Supervisor Dale Hassler agreed. “[I would hope] that it does not confuse residents,” he said. “[We are] trying to save them money.” Eckhart suggested that the company that wins the bid should assist with outreach efforts. Another proposed change in the 2019 trash collection contract is allowing trash collection to begin at 6 a.m. One bulk item will still be allowed to be placed at the curb per week and recycling will remain every other week. Supervisors will award the
December 6-12, 2018 5
bid during their meeting on December 27. In other news, supervisors are also looking into hiring a certified appraiser to assess land that has been offered to the township. Roughly 14-and-a-half acres along the Hokendauqua Creek have been offered to the township as a donation. Supervisor Behler voiced his support for the land acquirement, saying it could be a future trail area. However, Supervisor Oberly was more cautious, asking that a certified municipal appraiser look at the land before the township accepts it to “see what issues we may be walking into.” This is a step that township solicitor Lincoln Treadwell warned could be costly. Supervisors asked the township manager to look into appraisal prices by the next meeting so they can make a decision. The next board of supervisors meeting will be held on December 11 at 7 p.m.

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip My letter didn’t get in the e-mail last week. So I’ll bring you up to date after I tell you what I wrote last week. It looks like the economy is pretty good with all the thousands and thousands of people out shopping for gifts on the socalled Black Friday, and Cyber Monday. They’re spending plenty of money that they now have with increases in pay. I hope it lasts. . . .My Penn State buddy, Tony P., wants me to talk about his Alma Mater, more than the slumping Philadelphia Eagles, who beat the Giants. Well, Penn State beat Rutgers, and the team was looking to get into a bowl game on New Year’s Day. And over last weekend, they played Maryland, who came close to beating Ohio State. I figured Penn State to win. They did, BIG – 38-3 ! Happy, Tony and Bill F.? . . . . .In high school football on Thanksgiving Day, Northampton trounced Catty, 49-14, so the team had a pretty good season. . . .Last Monday was the start of firearms antlered deer season. It’s
was a bit warmer, but with heavy rain on a dreary day. We’ve had too much rain. Anyhow, good luck, hunters! Enough of the sports scene, Elmira says. . . .We went to the Lutheran church in town on Thanksgiving and enjoyed another good meal made by the church ladies with the help of the men. Rich Silvius gave the prayer, and the young ladies helped put the dessert out as the men brought in trays of turkey, ham, stuffing, and all the trimmings. Joan Haidle helped direct the operations. There were similar church meals at up in Danielsville and Cherryville, and other places, I’m sure, as the churches take care of serving their congregations and others who are home alone or struggling. . . . The temperatures are a little higher than two weeks ago, when they were in the 20’s and it snowed. Wait a few days and maybe it will be a good time to decorate your homes and put up all those lights. Tree lighting ceremonies are scheduled in Bath down at Monocacy Creek Park, Moore Township at the store in Klecknersville, Nazareth at the circle, and Northampton by Bob’s Flower Shop. Singing songs like “Silent Night” in the candlelight, and “Here Comes Santa Claus” are a part of it. Children always look forward to

seeing Santa. . . .Although people do say “Happy Holidays”, there are more and more getting back to “Merry Christmas”. . . .Ye Ed said there were less bowlers with the Thanksgiving holiday as people probably were too busy shopping for gifts or whatever, as the stores offer big discounts. It’s that time of year. . . .Oh well, we’ll get back to normal after New Year’s. No taking time off then, back to the grindstone, and start thinking about getting our taxes paid. I’m just gonna go with the flow. Now here’s my update. Over the weekend, Alaska was hit by a 7.0 earthquake, bigger than the 40,000 smaller ones they had last year. Lots of property damage, but no loss of life. That was one good thing. Between hurricanes down South, wild fires in California, tornados in the Midwest, and now an earthquake, the United States sure has suffered this year. Let’s all pray for better things to come. . . .It was cloudy on Saturday for the Christmas House Tour and Family History Day, but it went on as scheduled and everybody had a great time. There was a threat of rain at night, but the forecast was better for this week, so we’ll see about Christmas lights, even as it gets colder again. . . .There will be plenty of events to go to over in Nazareth on the 8th, indoors and outdoors. Enjoy yourselves and get into the Christmas spirit. . . . And on Tuesday, Dec. 18th at 10:30 a.m. there’s a Christmas Sing-Along over at Moravian Hall Square, led by Barbara Abel, former organist at Christ UCC Church in Bath . . . .Football Alert: Eagles won the Monday game last night over those Redskins 28-13. Didn’t watch all of the game but I did see that Adrian Peterson 90-yard touchdown run. I’m not sure I’ve ran that much my whole life. . . . And in other ‘bowling’ news, Penn State will be playing Kentucky in the Citrus Bowl. . . . Ed Pany, in his report on the Bath Museum in 2007 noted a ribbon from the 153rd Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry in the Civil War. On a visit to Gettysburg recently, the guide told us about the 153rd Regiment consisting of Pa. Dutch men from Bath, Nazareth and Northampton in the Civil War at Gettysburg. . . .That’s enough for now. Just thinking about all that’s going on has me exhausted. Take care, and enjoy yourself!

He is a resident, said Mayor Fiorella Mirabito, who has gone above and beyond for the community. “I know he holds Bath in his heart,” she told the crowd. “I never thought of living anywhere else,” added Fields before lighting the tree. State Senator Mario Scavello and State Representative Marcia Hahn were also in attendance. Senator Scavello called the tree
lighting ceremony the “nicest” he has ever seen and gifted all of the children in attendance with festive stuffed animals. Representative Hahn, a Bath native, praised Mayor Mirabito’s dedication to the borough and encouraged everyone to keep “the meaning of the season [alive].” Council President Mark Saginario also spoke. He called 2018 a year of accomplishments that all residents should be proud of. The Bath Community Choir, under the direction of Sharon Schrantz, performed several numbers to get the crowd in the

holiday spirit, including “The Christmas Waltz” and “Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.” Everyone was welcome to join in during a candlelight performance of “Silent Night.” Meanwhile, resident Scott Henninger performed the National Anthem. The tree was blessed by Father Christopher Butera of Sacred Heart of Jesus Parish Church. “May the light [the tree] shines…be a sign of joy in the borough,” he said. An opening prayer was given by Reverend Michael Eckroth of Christ UCC. Following the tree lighting, special appearances were made by Princess Belle, Buddy the Elf, and Santa Clause. Hot chocolate and cookies were handed out by Cub Pack 33. The night was made possible due to the generous donations and time of numerous borough volunteers, including the Bath Lions Club, Greater Bath Area Chamber of Commerce, Mr. and Mrs. Barry Fenstermaker for donating candy canes, the Bath Borough Council, the Bath Volunteer Fire Department, Marjorie Rehrig for donating candles, Mrs. Araujo from Learn ‘N’ Play Daycare for donating children’s books, and Bobby Siegfried for helping with the evening’s sound system. The dazzling tree will shine brightly in Monocacy Creek Park through the holidays.
Bath Council Approves Bath View Land Development
By KERI LINDENMUTH During their meeting on Monday, December 3, the Bath Borough Council helped push forward a long-dormant land development plan that would finish the second phase of the Bath View Condominiums project. Shortly after development of the condominiums on North Walnut Street, the developer failed, never completing construction of a second condominium building. While other developers attempted to purchase the property, none were willing to pick up where the original developer left off. However, developer Justin Huratiak of Huratiak Homes chose to move forward with the project and finish what the original developer started. “After all these years…we got this back on track,” said Blake Marles, borough solicitor. Borough Manager Brad Flynn was thrilled with the progress, thanking Huratiak for his patience and perseverance as they worked together through what Flynn described as a process that was far from easy. Now, Flynn looks forward to
the Bath View community finally coming together. “I am happy for the people in Bath View,” he said. Huratiak is also looking forward to working with the Bath View Condo Association and board, who he will be meeting with throughout the development process. “[We will] bring that community back to where it should be,” he said. “We are looking forward to getting started.” Continued on page 15

Preserving Family history One recipe at A time Submitted by
JANET HINKEL JOHNSON I had the privilege of growing up in historic Nazareth. We lived on the same block as the original C.F. Martin Guitar Company factory and only a few doors from the Martin house on North Main Street, which was home to several generations of the company founder. My husband’s family lived in nearby Tatamy, named after Chief Moses Tunda Tatamy, of the Lenni Lenape Indians. Chief Tatamy owned land in the area in the 1700s. The borough of Tatamy was incorporated in 1893. When visiting historic places, it always amazed me to see letters and detailed diaries written by those who were part of significant events that happened hundreds of years ago. While the pages are often worn and the ink faded, these writings tell stories to help us understand what was happening at the time and Continued on page 15

Northampton Council voices displeasure with New borough properties By KERI LINDENMUTH During its meeting on November 29, some Northampton council members expressed concerns about new rental properties in the borough. Councilman Anthony Lopsonzski, Sr. was most vocal about his displeasure with the Catholic War Veterans property on Newport Avenue, which was turned into apartments, intended for veterans earlier in the year. Currently, it has four to five units occupied. The oldest resident, Lopsonzski, Sr. says, is 26, and none appear to be veterans. “We were sold a dead horse,” he said. He complained of the inadequate parking and a light illuminating an empty pole. Lopsonzski, Sr. also voiced his concern about the Central Building apartments on Main Street. “The driveway has no business being the way it is,” he said. “Someone is going to get killed.” The exit for the property’s parking lot is currently on Main Street. Lopsonzski, Sr. argues Main Street should serve as the property’s entrance. The issues facing these latest properties in the borough leave Lopsonzski, Sr. wary of the Tama apartment building, which is currently in development. He
says there have been no reports of substance from the developer. “I think we will have some fun up there if that is not watched properly,” he warned. In other news, council voted to approve changes to the police agreement for 2019 through 2021. These changes include a four percent salary increase, sick leave of $130 per day, and a pension of five percent. No changes have been made to healthcare. The Police Bargaining Unit has agreed to all changes. All councilmen and women were in
support of the changes, except Councilman Robert McHale. Finally, council reviewed some line items in the 2019 budget. These included funding for the fire department, which will have most of its comprehensive plan requests granted. A grant is being drafted for an all-terrain vehicle. In addition, the budget also shows a decrease in street construction funding due to extensive work by UGI in 2019. The budget, which is still being finalized, will not include a tax increase.

HIStory Includes You!
Someone said, “The hinge of history is on the door of a Bethlehem stable.” What a picturesque statement! History is primarily HIStory—the story of Jesus! It all begins with Him! “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...and the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us” (John 1:1, 14). Could any fact of history be more significant than this—that God, the Creator, was “manifest in the flesh” (1 Timothy 3:16) to bring us into fellowship with Himself? Human history began with God creating man to have fellowship with Him, but man’s sin produced an impasse separating him from a holy God as Isaiah 59:2 declares, “Your iniquities have separated between you and your God.” Was God prepared to deal with this dilemma? Absolutely! Before the first sin by Adam and Eve, God had devised the plan of salvation in which His Son would come into the world to redeem man from his sin. Isaiah prophesied about this plan of salvation 700 years before Jesus was born, “Behold a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel” (Isaiah. 7:14). Immanuel means “God with us” (Matthew 1:23). The name reveals the divine purpose of Christ’s sacrificial death on the cross whereby our sins can be forgiven by faith in Jesus, and we can be brought into fellowship with a holy God. The Apostle Peter proclaimed that Jesus “was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you” (1 Peter 1:20). Yes, HIStory includes you! Jesus was born to die on the cross to redeem you from your sins and bring you into fellowship with God. What have you done about it? The Bible says, “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). Have you believed on and received Jesus as your Savior? It’s the most important thing you can do in your life! I urge you to do it now!

Microwave Tips
In microwaving beef tips, chunks and stews, a tight-cover glass bowl is a good choice. A low power setting cooks meat tender in liquid and steam. Stirring helps distribute heat evenly. Remove cover carefully to avoid steam.

to learn more about the people who wrote the messages. How wonderful it is that these writings have been preserved so that we, and future generations, can see them and learn about their history. Until my husband and I both lost our mothers within a few months of each other five years ago, we had never given serious consideration to the fact that our homes are filled with so much history, as well. Almost every home contains boxes of photos, scrapbooks, and significant documents that have been passed through the generations of families but often forgotten and ignored. The contents are uniquely meaningful because they tell a personal story of a family. As we faced the chore of going through the personal possessions of our parents, we were surprised at the quantity of boxes filled with photos, documents, books, and recipes we found in old trunks and storage containers. Many dated back into the 1800s and were items we had never seen before. Our discovery made us curious about the ancestors we never met -- who they were, what did they do, etc. As we tried to connect names, faces, and dates, we had many questions and regretted that we had lost the family members who would have the answers. Thanks to the Internet and genealogy programs, we’ve been able to trace our family roots back to the 1600s in Europe. I knew my
great-great grandfather served in the Civil War and participated in the Battle of Gettysburg, but never considered ancestors who served during the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812, or those who played important roles in establishing towns and communities after coming to America. The information we found was eye opening, and sometimes overwhelming. But the important thing is that we now have a better understanding of our ancestors and have a greater appreciation of life in 1700-1800s. It was a cookbook project that actually gave us the inspiration to do more extensive research on our family history and preserve our memories for future generations. We spent months sorting through a mountain of recipes collected from our mothers and grandmothers, and those beyond. Many were written on papers that were brittle and crumbling from age and use. We found ourselves telling stories about what made a particular food special to us, and the family events that involved these food items – basically recalling our childhoods. By the time we got through all the recipes, we had selected more than 300 of our favorites. It was at this point that we decided to begin organizing the recipes and publish a family heirloom cookbook to preserve the recipes, as well as the history and memories of our families while growing up in our hometowns of Nazareth and Tatamy. The cookbook, A Pinch of Love, A Dash of Time, features more than 340 recipes – many are decades old, while some are newer

family favorites. We also included our memories of family life and photos. The book is designed as a 365-day calendar of recipes, and contains daily historical facts, inspirational quotes and messages, and fun tidbits. Recipes are strategically placed throughout the book to coincide with appropriate harvests or seasons of the year when the foods were mostly prepared. The book is dedicated to our mothers, both of whom were active in our hometowns. My mother, Betty Hinkel, was active in St. John’s Lutheran Church, Nazareth, and was a Registered Nurse for the late Dr. John Hoch in his private practice in Nazareth for more than 25 years. My motherin-law, Dorothy Johnson, was a baker at Carldon’s Restaurant in Nazareth for nearly 25 years and often shared her culinary skills by preparing large quantities of food for dinners or parties of family and friends. American writer Madeleine L'Engle once said, “If you don’t recount your family history, it will be lost. Honor your own stories and tell them too. The tales may not seem very important, but they are what binds families and makes each of us who we are.” The cookbook, A Pinch of Love, A Dash of Time, is available for $20 plus shipping and handling. Also, 10 percent of each book purchase will be donated to the Nazareth Area Food Bank in memory of our mothers. To order a book or for more information, please send an email to JHcookbook@gmail.com. About the authors Bill and Janet Johnson reside in Mechanicsburg, southcentral Pennsylvania. Both are natives of Tatamy and Nazareth, respectively, and graduates of Nazareth Area High School (1966 and 1970) and Northampton Community College (1970 and 1972). Bill also is a 1972 graduate of Bloomsburg University.

Bath Council
December 6-12, 2018 15
Continued from page 7
In other news, council also approved a 2019 engineering and traffic survey. The borough has attempted three separate times to receive a grant for adaptive traffic signals that will help traffic congestion in the borough. However, the borough was told it needs stronger engineering evidence to show that traffic is an issue. This survey, from a third party, will help provide the evidence the borough needs, as well as shortterm and long-term suggestions for traffic improvement. Flynn says the survey would give the borough a “solid transportation plan” that is “specifically tailored” to the problems the borough faces. This survey, however, comes with a cost of $102,400. Two community development grants will help cover $55,000. The rest will come from the borough’s capital improvement fund. The lack of outside resources or funding is something that frustrated council members and Mayor Fiorella Mirabito. The surrounding, larger townships with the majority of development, they said, get all of the funding from the state, while the
borough, which experiences the direct impact from the surrounding communities’ traffic, gets “nothing.” Mayor Mirabito noted that Bath is the only municipality in either Lehigh or Northampton County to have five highways. “It is time someone pay attention to the small guy,” she said.
