Unique Strategy to Promote Maternity and Pediatric Services
Submitted by DENISE RADER St. Luke's decision to introduce such a unique strategy to brand their pregnancy, labor and delivery services evolved from the excitement generated from the inaugural launch of St. Luke’s Baby Bowl in 2014. Ken Szydlow, Vice President of Marketing and Public Relations, St. Luke's University Health Network, stated, “Last year, the inaugural Baby Bowl was so well
received and generated such positive feedback both internally and externally that we embraced and expanded the program this year. We have increased the number of boards throughout the Lehigh Valley and surrounding regions. Our outdoor effort will be complemented by additional social media and radio advertising components, as well.” In addition to the electronic billboards keeping score, me-
dia partner WLEV 100.7 and WCTO 96.1 Radio will keep motorists up to date during the drive time and will announce the winner on Monday morning to coincide with the updated billboards. Tony Cioffi, General Manager Adams Outdoor Lehigh Valley, said, “It is nothing short of amazing the number of babies Continued on page 5
The history of cement production is the history of our area The Phoenix Portland Cement Company
by ED PANY Curator of the Atlas Cement Company Memorial Museum and Historian As my loyal readers know, I have written numerous columns on our local cement industry and the lives of cement workers. For
many years the Lehigh Valley was the largest producer of Portland Cement in the world. Recently, I was given rare photographs of a company whose memories have been lost in time except for a ward of Nazareth that even today carries the name of Phoenix.
Driving past Gracedale Nursing Home, on the right, will be a sign with the name Phoenix. The village-like area dates back to 1900 when the Phoenix Portland Cement Company was orgaContinued on page 5

Nature in Photographs: Photography Show at Lehigh Gap Nature Center
Submitted by DAN KUNKLE Lehigh Gap Nature Center (LGNC) is hosting its second annual Nature in Photographs show at the nature center’s Osprey House from March 20 to April 4, 2015. Amateur nature photographers from throughout our region are encouraged to participate. The photographs must be actual photographs, not computer generated images or collages. This year’s categories are: Lehigh Gap Nature Center, Pennsylvania, and Earth/Air/Water/ Light. There is also a youth category encompassing all three categories above for children 12 or under. Prizes will be awarded in all categories and a People’s Choice Award winner will also receive a prize. Last year’s inaugural event included nearly 50 photographs from more than 30 photographers. We plan to accept up to 90 photographs for this year’s show. Photographers are encouraged to submit up to three photographs of nature to be exhibited at the Center for two weeks in early
spring. Photos are restricted to native flora and fauna (no baited or captive wildlife) or natural scenes taken in the past five years. For the LGNC and PA categories, the photo must be taken in those locations. Three jurors will screen the entries and select the photographs to display in the show. The jurors will select the winning photographs in the three categories plus the best youth photograph. In addition to judging of the best photographs in each category, all visitors to the show will be asked to participate by voting for their favorite image for a People’s Choice Award. All entries must be submitted to the jurors as JPEG files, 2MB or less. Files should be submitted by February 28 via email to frozenbeedoc@verizon.net. Entries that are accepted into the exhibition should be printed from the full quality file and mounted according to the photographers wishes, but must be ready to hang from our display panels, either with wire or Velcro.

Police Blotter Bath woman charged with Hit-and-run in Northampton
A 21-year-old Bath woman is free on bail after she was charged with hit-and-run. Her car allegedly struck a 10-year-old Northampton girl this past Friday, Jan. 16 as she attempted to cross Main St. at Bridge St. in the Borough of Northampton. Amanda Miller of the 100 block of Main St., Bath, said she didn’t see Crystal Laeyt as the girl came out from behind a parked SUV and she was struck. The girl got up and went across the street. She was then taken to Lehigh Valley Hospital-Cedar Crest for treatment of her injuries, and has since returned home. According to police reports, the girl’s shoes fell off her after impact. Ms. Miller reportedly slowed down, but then drove off, thinking the girl was okay, and didn’t notify Northampton police. She
turned herself in after seeing her car, a 1993 Oldsmobile, in a WFMZ-TV accident report. The driver was sent to Northampton County Prison in lieu of $5,000 bail, but District Judge Daniel Corpora allowed for 10% option if pre-trial services approved it. At her arraignment, she was charged with offenses relating to injuring the child and then not stopping to render aid or to report the incident to police. Ms. Miller’s bail was reduced to $500 on Tuesday, Jan. 20 and her mother, Tammy Weist, of Northampton St., Bath, posted it. The accident happened at 8:30 a.m. Friday as the girl hurried to school. Ms. Miller’s preliminary hearing was scheduled for this Tuesday in the district court on W. 21st St. in Northampton. If convicted of the most serious charge, she faces up to five years in jail and a $5,000 fine. Never before arrested, she told Judge Corpora that she is expecting a child herself.

Opinion Tips for Finding the Right School for Your Child
By ANDREW CAMPANELLA If you’d like to send your child to a different school next year, now’s the time to start the process of researching your options. As Pennsylvania prepares to commemorate National School Choice Week later this month at 460 events across the state, and nearly 11,000 events nationwide, many parents will begin evaluating the educational opportunities that are available for their children. Believe it or not, seats in schools are already beginning to fill up for the 2015-2016 school year. Interest in school choice – the process of actively choosing a public, charter, magnet, private, or online school – is high. That means that waiting until the spring or the summer to begin researching schools for your children could restrict your options. No handbook or tip sheet can truly guide parents through the entire process of selecting a school, because choosing schools is an individual experience that will be unique to every family. However, parents can start by making a list of the attributes that they hope to find in an ideal school. Ask yourself: what’s most important to you and to the academic, social, and emotional well-being of your child? Is it the academic performance of a school, school safety, the instructional methods, the qualifications of teachers, the school’s educa-
www.HomeNewsPA.com
tional theme, a school’s shared values, or other factors? Once you’ve identified what matters most, start looking into the options available to you. In addition to the local public school, you may be eligible to send your child to a school outside of your ZIP code, or in a different school district. Look into nearby charter schools and magnet schools. Don’t leave private and faith based schools off your list! You might be able to find scholarships to cover the costs of tuition. And for some families, online learning and homeschooling work best. To find the options available to you, look at information from the Pennsylvania Department of Education, as well as information on state-based education reform or school choice organization websites. For a directory of most schools in your area, along with parent rankings and some performance metrics, parents can visit this website: greatschools.org. With your list of requirements and your list of schools in hand, start making appointments to visit the schools. Ask to sit in on classes, and make sure to ask as many questions as possible of teachers, the administration, and support staff. You’ll want to find out what motivates the adults in the building, while also seeing how the students in the classes respond to their teachers. Ask yourself: is this a place where I’d want to send my child for most of his or her weekday waking hours? Finally, make sure to talk with other parents – and to your own children. Ask parents how the schools’ administrators treat parents, and whether they welcome, or discourage, parental involvement. And most importantly, ask your children about their perceptions of the schools that you’ve visited. Find out what excites and motivates your child at school, but also ask about their worries, concerns and apprehensions. Making the decision to change Continued on page 5

Winter Wonderland
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Or, ‘Oh the weather outside is frightful.’ By the time this piece reaches you, we will be digging out from the snow that the weathermen have predicted we are getting. We have dodged the bullet until now, but this Winter Wonderland directly connects to small businesses. I was in a restaurant recently and, of course, everyone was buzzing about the weather. America’s Most Interesting Conversation ...some say 3-5 inches, some say 6-12, some say 12-18 and this week I even heard 3 FEET! OH, THE WEATHER OUTSIDE IS FRIGHTFUL. How does this affect small biz? Well, the owner of the business said, “I hope it doesn’t snow, it kills my business.” Some of us love it, some of us hate it, but at the end of the day, we have no power to change the inevitable. This is a great reason not to procrastinate in your biz. Don’t wait until tomorrow when you can do it today. Some quick wintery tips: • Turn your to-do list upside down, do the things you hate to do first. • Perfectionism can be a detriment to getting things done - don’t sweat the small stuff sometimes perfection just doesn’t matter and takes too much time.

nized. The new company joined a list that would include 30 different companies. The plant capacity was 5,000 barrels a day. Lone Star Industries would acquire the plant in 1928. I wanted to know more about Phoenix, so I contacted a former resident: Mr. Kevin Reichel of Reichel Funeral Home of Northampton. One afternoon Kevin invited me to his funeral home where I interviewed him with an endless list of questions. To my surprise, two Nazareth gentlemen with Phoenix connections were present. “Men, how about joining the interview?” I said. Mr. Dale Kocher and Mr. Rob Keppel were game and graciously agreed. The Reichel family has roots in the Burgenland area of what was, before World War I, part of Austria-Hungary. Kevin’s grand-
father, as many from central Europe, immigrated to the United States for the opportunity to improve their living standards. The route to Nazareth started in St. Louis, where cement plants used the mighty Mississippi River for transportation. Friends convinced him to move to Coplay to work for the Coplay cement manufacturing company where David Saylor received the first patent to produce Portland Cement. When the Coplay plant had a lull in production, Reichel moved to Phoenix Cement. The family planted new roots there and Joseph Reichel, funeral director, and former Northampton County Coroner was born on Mauch Church Street. “During the dark days of the depression, my grandmother would provide food on the front lawn to assist those in need,” Kevin recalled.
Jan. 29-Feb. 4, 2015 5
Kevin’s father would play football for Andrew Leh’s Nazareth Blue Eagles. A burly lineman, Joe and some of his teammates would take some of the equipment home and play unsanctioned football on the weekends. Coach Leh was not happy about it. Phoenix Cement became home to many immigrants. Most were employed at Nazareth plants like Dexter, Nazareth, Penn Dixie, Penn Allen and Phoenix. The population became a melting pot of different ethnicities, many Austrian, Hungarian, Italians, Poles and Slovaks – hard working blue-collar employees. Cement and block company homes provided basic housing for employees. Today the homes are but memories. Part two will run in next week’s The Home News.

Gab over the Fence
by Pete G. Ossip
We thought for a while we were gonna have a better winter than last year. But now we’re having a rude awakening. Eight inches of snow last Friday, another one or two by early Monday, and then the threat of a foot or more Monday night into Tuesday around here, with plenty of wind. It even forced the news office to close on Tuesday. And the prediction was up to 18 inches for New York City! The white stuff we had on Friday was wet and heavy and it was terrible trying to shovel it by hand. At least since then it’s been the powdery stuff, so it’s a little easier except for the depth. Anyhow, the guys with plows on their pick-up trucks are back in business doing driveways and parking lots, hardware stores are selling out of shovels and rock salt, and the food stores are having a land office business as folks clean out their shelves of milk, eggs, bread and other goodies to feed their families. . . . Northampton County Community College hadta postpone their winter graduation for a day with the Friday storm, but they made it and now have their diplomas and degrees. . . . Dart baseball games and Northampton County Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs’ meeting over at Lappawinzo in Northampton were cancelled, I’m told. The cold, cold winter – I’m ready for spring!!! How about you? . . . . The ski slopes made their own snow for a while, but not now. They have plenty of the white stuff made by Old Man Winter. I see Blue Mountain is gonna have a winter festival on February 8 and 9. That’s only a week and a half away, so they’ll have plenty on hand to keep all the skiers and snowboarders happy. . . .The Sacred Heart School got a break on Sunday between the storms for their open house book fair and candy fundraiser, and most churches had their regular services that day. . . . I see Bob Snyder passed away at the age of 98. Ye Ed tells me he had him as a high school physics teacher way
back in the 1940’s. . . . Leading up to the Super Bowl this coming Sunday all we’ve been hearing the past week is Deflate-Gate, since it was found that 11 out of 12 footballs used by the Patriots were 2 lbs . per square inch under inflated. A heck of a lotta veteran football players believe they did it, but that they’ll get off with not much of a penalty until February or March. NFL has had its problems this year. Go Seahawks!! . . . .Gotta cut this letter short on account of the weather so we can beat the start of this storm. . . .Stay warm and safe. See ya all next week.
Bath Bowling Team 7 Splits, But Still Ahead With Die Hards
Team 7 split 2-2 with Team 2, but they still have a nice lead as of Jan. 21 in the Bath Die Hards League. They had David Guest with 469 and Herb Guest, 448. Team 2 had Mike Cawley hitting 569 and John Cawley, 513, and they are in fourth place. Doug Head’s 580 was enough for Team 6 to reach second place as they won 3 to 1. But they’re tied with Team 4 that had Terry Bartholomew with 558 and Ken Grube, 532. Team 1 fell down to third with a 1 to 3 loss, but had Bob R. Kosman, 465 and Bob C. Kosman, 457. Team 3 is now in fifth place, losing 1 to 3, as Rick Deily made 457 and Polly Kosman, 451. Hard to believe, but Team 5 is holding up the league with Gerald Bartholomew leading the pack on a 604 series, along with Charmaine Bartholomew, 461; Clare Bartholomew, 433, and Amanda Leindecker, 409.

By State Rep. MARCIA HAHN 138th Legislative District I have received my committee appointments for the 2015-16 House session. I will serve on the following four committees: Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Gaming Oversight, Health and Tourism and Recreational Development. The individual House committees, of which there are 27, are the first big ‘gates’ through which legislation passes. Approval of a bill in committee moves it along in the legislative process to the House floor for a possible vote and passage to the Senate. Three of my four committees are carryover assignments from the 2013-14 session, and I’m anxious to get to work and begin the process of evaluating legislation. The Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee maintains legislative involvement in agriculture and rural areas, dealing with issues such as dog law enforcement, agriculture research, food safety and farmland preservation. In recent years, it has moved legislation concerning nutrient management and Pennsylvania’s Clean and Green Law. Legislative issues dealt with by the Health Committee include cash and public assistance, disease management and welfare reform. The committee is also charged with oversight of the Departments of Health and Human Services.

NAZARETH AREA Emrick Recognizes Local Resident’s 100th Birthday
Submitted by SCOTT LITTLE On Saturday, Jan. 17, state Rep. Joe Emrick (R-Nazareth) presented a House citation to Amelia Cerino on the occasion of her 100th birthday. The celebration took place at Giordano’s Restaurant in Pen Argyl.
The 2014-2015 winter sports regular season is down to the final two weeks. The Nazareth boys’ basketball team went to Northampton on Jan. 20 and triumphed with a score of 56-51. The boys then went over to Emmaus on Jan. 23 and unfortunately, fell short in that game 71-58. The boys’ basketball team will play at home the remainder of the home season as they will host Whitehall at 7 p.m. on Jan. 27. Afterwards, they will be hosting Central Catholic at 7 p.m. as part of a girl-boy doubleheader on Friday, Jan. 30. The Nazareth wrestling team traveled to Pocono Mountain West on Jan. 22 and had a huge win at 61-9. Due to the weather on Friday, Jan. 23, the boys hosted a doubleheader at the Nazareth Middle School where they first took on Allen and won 57-18 and then played Whitehall right after and won that one also at 41-35. The night of the doubleheader also happened to be the wrestling team’s Senior Night. This past week, the Nazareth girls’ basketball team had their last two home games of the season. On Jan. 20, the girls welcomed Northampton and won with a score of 46-31. On Jan. 23, the girls had their senior night against Emmaus and won 70-41 in that game. The Nazareth girls’ basketball team will travel to Whitehall on Jan. 27 at 7 p.m. and will then be playing at home for the final time when they host Central Catholic at 6 p.m. on Jan. 30 in part of the girl-boy basketball doubleheader.

Victory for Local Anglers
Jan. 29-Feb. 4, 2015 11
Northampton County Area on Aging Visit these senior centers and participate in activities daily. Call for more info and meal reservations.
By State Rep. JOE EMRICK 137th Legislative District On the heels of a key decision made by the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC), I am proud to claim victory for anglers in the 137th Legislative District with the decision that has brought about continued stocking of Martins Creek. Those of us who fish local waters and have a first-hand look at what is in them have debated the science, or lack thereof, behind the threat to discontinue stocking our local streams. This is a simple case of people voicing their opinions and the commission listening and reacting accordingly.
As an outdoor enthusiast, I’m thrilled with the decision. On Jan. 22, the PFBC’s Board of Commissioners voted to designate a number of Pennsylvania stream sections, including Martins Creek, as Class A wild trout streams based on the high biomass of wild brown trout found in them. Despite this designation, PFBC will continue the stocking of adult trout in Martins Creek from its east and west branches to the Bangor Sewage Treatment Plant. So many people deserve credit for the continued stocking of these streams. President Mike
Topping and Lee Marsh of the Northampton County Federation of Sportsmen’s Clubs fought hard for them, as did the Mike Ortoski, who lives adjacent to Martins Creek and has helped promote the issue. I also need to recognize all of the anglers who logged on to my website, www.RepEmrick.com, and signed the petitions that were posted in favor of keeping Martins Creek stocked. Questions about this event or any legislative issue should be directed to Emrick’s Mt. Bethel office at 570-897-0401 or his Nazareth office at 610-746-5090.
18 Million Available to Support Training for Beginning Farmers and Ranchers By Traci Bruckner, tracib@cfra. org, Center for Rural Affairs Submitted by Elisha Smith The US Department of Agriculture announced more than $18 million in funding available to support training, mentoring, and development of beginning farmers and ranchers through the Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program. We helped create and advocate for this program in the 2002 Farm Bill. It was finally funded in the 2008 Farm Bill. The need was clear then and remains so today. A number of beginning farmers and ranchers don't have direct roots to agri-
culture. While they yearn for the honest, hard work you find in farming or ranching, they need help learning the ropes. The Beginning Farmer and Rancher Development Program awards grants to organizations implementing programs to train beginning farmers and ranchers. Funding includes support for workshops, farmer-to-farmer mentoring, and technical assistance. Since the program was first funded and put on the ground in 2009, 145 awards have been made. That's more than $71 million dedicated to giving the next generation of farmers and ranch-
ers the know-how to succeed. A focus on projects for veteran beginning farmers and ranchers has been added this time. It joins previous set-asides for sociallydisadvantaged, limited-resource, or farmworkers who want a start in agriculture. Organizations experienced in serving beginning farmers and ranchers must submit their applications by March 13, 2015. If you are a beginning farmer or rancher looking to find training and mentoring opportunities, call us at 402-687-2100 or send an email to tracib@cfra.org. We’ll point you in the right direction.

Webinar Offered On Running For Local Office
Submitted by KELLY BOND For all those people who have ever thought about serving on their school board, borough council or township board – here’s your chance to learn how to do it. Penn State Extension is offering a webinar ‘Toss Your Hat in the Ring’ on Monday, February 9 from 7 until 9 p.m. The program includes: • An overview of Pennsylvania local government and the responsibilities of a township supervisor, a borough council member, and a school board director • Instructions on how to run: filing a petition, reporting campaign expenses and other important information. The webinar won’t offer campaign tips or strategies; rather the focus is on understanding the roles, responsibilities and personal rewards that come with public service. “The people who run our local governments are our friends and neighbors – people just like us,” explained Penn State Extension Educator Judy Chambers. “You don’t need special training or experience to serve your township, borough or school district. If you’re interested in serving, care about your community, and are willing to learn on the job, we’d like to encourage you to toss your hat in the ring.” In addition to the webinar,

Drunkard Converted I read of a drunkard who often was carried home and left on the porch. His wife would drag him in and sometimes he would strike her. When he was sober he would look at her and say, “Honey, did I do that? I'm sorry. You know I wouldn’t do that in my right mind.” However, he would go out and do it all over again. One night, he came home earlier than usual. His wife had just tucked the two children in bed when the daughter jumped up and said, “I must pray again and ask God to save my daddy!” At that moment the drunk stood outside the door and heard her praying, “Lord, save my daddy, and take all the drink away.” As he listened, his heart was broken. With tears flowing he went in, knelt down and said, “Teach your daddy how to pray. Talk to Jesus about your daddy.” That little girl put her arms around his neck and they prayed together. The next morning he said to his wife, “I have taken my last drink.” She replied, “I wish I could believe that.” But he said, this time it is true! When our daughter was praying last night, I felt the radiant presence of Jesus, and I heard a voice saying, ‘Thy sins which are many are forgiven thee!’ I feel a great peace in my soul now!” That converted drunkard became a gospel preacher declaring that Jesus has power to save and change the sinner. Perhaps you have been ensnared in some sinful bondage of alcohol, drugs, illicit sex, etc. and you need conversion. Jesus will save you if you will humbly come to Him in sincere repentance. Jesus said, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). The Bible promises you a changed life, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new” (2 Corinthians 5:17). Will you give Jesus the opportunity to save you now?

Turning Failure Into Success
Failure can do one of two things in our lives. It can either become a weight dragging us down, or, it can give a person wings! This reminds me of the Bible account of Jesus and His disciples by the sea. In Luke 5 (1-11) we read that the disciples had worked all night in their fishing business; but they caught nothing. It surely does sound like a business failure. After they met Jesus on the shore, explained their predicament and listened to His advice, things changed. It became an opportunity to experience Christ’s presence lifting them. Jesus guided them to “launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” When they obeyed Christ, there was an abundance of fish which broke their nets! Christ took their earlier failure and turned it into a time of overflowing blessing. Like the disciples, our failures can become opportunities for a loving Christ to open His floodgates of blessings. When we let Christ direct our lives, our closed hearts experience a change in attitude and we become aware of God’s unlimited blessings. None of us goes through life without experiencing some failures and disappointments. We may set certain goals that we believe are the best, but we never seem to succeed in reaching them. Successes and failures can alternate in our lives, but we must never view a failure as something that spoils the whole of life. In fact, failure can become the occasion to reappraise life values and goals. Failure can lead to creative changes that result in something better coming into our lives. Christ taught His followers this important life lesson of turning failure into success in this fishing event. The disciples learned that confidence in Christ’s word and following His directives opens us to creative renewal and opportunities for new successes. Perhaps you feel you are a failure, disappointed and broken hearted. Do not give up! When Christ told the disciples to throw their nets on the right side of the boat, they had already tried every side and failed; but they had tried alone and without His help. The only reason their failure changed to success was because it was Christ who gave the command. Is your lack of faith in Christ causing failure in your life? It is almost unbelievable what Christ can do in a life of failure when we turn over our disappointments and struggles to Him. All we have to do is invite Jesus to be Lord of our life and He will direct our steps away from failure into new successes. Trust Him.

All-Star Manning Ready For Phantoms’ Playoff Push
Although he came up a bit short of what he was hoping for, Manning said he was still happy with a 98-mph slap shot, adding, "I've never clocked myself before." Manning finished the AllStar game with one assist for the Eastern Conference in a 1412 loss to the Western Conference All-Stars. While Manning enjoyed his time in Utica at the 2015 AHL All-Star Classic over the weekend and was looking forward to the extra two days off before he returns to Lehigh Valley, the Phantoms veteran defenseman knows what to ex-

pect the rest of the way - starting Thursday night at home against the Albany Devils. "It's the toughest part of the season," Manning said of heading down the stretch when AHL play resumes. "You start off with a three-in-three and there's no more breaks to look forward to. It's straight off until playoff time and then hopefully into the playoffs. For us to be in contention at this point is a start for us, but we definitely want to move up and get into the playoffs."

self on Monday. It's certainly been a busy last week for the fourth year pro, who has had logged plenty of miles traveling in the last seven days. Earlier that week, Manning was called up to the Philadelphia Flyers - his second stint with the NHL club this season - and was in the lineup as the Flyers defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins in overtime on Tuesday night. He then re-joined the Phantoms for and played a game Wednesday night at home, before traveling with the team Thursday to Syracuse for a game against the Crunch Friday night. After a snowy ride back to Allentown overnight Friday, Manning and the Phantoms hosted the IceCaps Saturday night. Manning arrived in Utica for the Skills Competition Sunday afternoon for the night's event and participated in the Hardest Shot Competition, reaching a high of 98.0 mph on one of his three attempts. Manning also scored a goal in the breakaway relay event that concluded a 1511 win for the East All-Stars. "It'd be nice to break 100," Manning said before the Skills Competition on what he was hoping for in the Hardest Shot Competition.

Some or all of the Suburban Inter-Church Dart Baseball League games may have been postponed. Those that were cancelled will be re-scheduled later. The news staff had to go ahead, and if any games were played, the results will be published next week.
