Looking by Back Ed Pany Column #4
In this fourth column, I am continuing my visit to the Bath Museum recalling 200 years of local history. In our last column we remembered when the cement industry had a great impact on the Lehigh Valley. In 1926 the Penn Allen, Pennsylvania Cement merged with a Tennessee company and changed their name to Penn Dixie Cement. They would now have three plants in the area:
Plants 4, 5 and 6. They became a very large employer in the area and continued in operation until 1978 when Plant 4 would close, ending the Penn Dixie era in Bath. The company had produced cement for many famous projects including the New York City water system. The railroads hauled most of

Lack of sewer agreement Between Allen, Northampton leaves Residents without homes By KERI LINDENMUTH A lack of a sewer agreement between Allen Township and Northampton Borough has left some residents in limbo. The Intermunicipal Sewer Services Agreement between the two municipalities has been expired since 2016. Without an agreement, developers cannot hook up homes to the sewer system. With no hook up, residents are not allowed to move in to their new homes. Some, like Patty Rogers, have nowhere else to go. For over 10 months, she says, she has been “in limbo.” She is not currently a township resident, but she hoped to be. Others, like Chris Yagerhofer, have a home they can stay in, but it does not make the situation any less frustrating. “It is just a big mess,” she told supervisors during their July 9 meeting. “We would really love to live in your township.” The original sewer agreement was created in 2012. The new agreement, according to solicitor Lincoln Treadwell, creates some concern. “I have more than a couple of questions,” he said. The way the agreement is currently written, he added, would make it impossible for Allen Township to sign. Among his concerns is a change in the sewer rate that Northampton would charge Allen Township. Despite the mention of a new rate in the amended contracted, Treadwell says there
is “no guide as to what the rate would be in the future.” The agreement also proposes a penalty charge five times that of a resident’s sewer bill, which Treadwell calls “excessive.” While Treadwell admits that the delay is frustrating for residents and hopeful residents, the “ramifications” of this new contract “are significant for everyone.” Treadwell said he would like two Allen Township supervisors to attend a meeting between him and Northampton Borough solicitor Steven Goudsouzian.

“[We need to] try and get this thing done,” he added. Supervisor Larry Oberly agreed. “That is what we have been waiting for,” he said. “And it has not happened.” Northampton offered to sell the township 100 hookup units for new development, only if the township agrees to the stipulations outlined in the amended contract. Until that time in which township officials can settle the agreement with Northampton, residents like Rogers and Yagerhofer are left waiting. Continued on page 4

Family fun at Northampton Community Days By KERI LINDENMUTH From July 10 until July 13, the Northampton Exchange Club hosted its 39th annual Community Days Fair. There were plenty of rides, games, performances, and foods for the hundreds of children and adults alike who attended the summer tradition. The fair kicked off on July 10 with Kids Night. The Lehigh Valley Zoo was in attendance, as were balloon artists and face painters. Children could also enjoy a puppet show presented by Wagstaff & Company. Whether ride-goers liked spinning around or soaring high, there were plenty of rides to choose from, including mini coasters, giant slides, and favorites like the Starship 3000, the Sizzler, and the Teacups. The evening of July 11 was cut short due to flash flooding, so the Veterans Night program was postponed until Friday, July 12. Several veterans from local American Legion posts were honored by State Representative Zachary Mako. July 12 also featured a performance by the Lucky 7 and bingo by the Bath Lions. The fair proved to be a great
stop for families hoping to eat out, with Philadelphia cheesesteaks, Geakers Tacos, homemade pierogis, hot dogs, and more. The fair’s final day featured a car show, flea market, wiffle ball tournament, and hot dog eating
contest, as well as performances by the Balancing Act Quartet, The Collective Band, and Flirtin’ with the Mob. A fireworks show brought the four-day event to a spectacular conclusion.

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual
The Next Generation
Please allow me a moment to diverge from my usual bright and airy optimistic articles. I feel this need to write about some doom and gloom. I figured why should everyone else in the media be able to do as much and not me. Am I right? Here it goes. To the point, I don’t see our future generations being as healthy as generations past. I just don’t. I know, I know. I can hear all the gasps of horror as I put pen to paper yet I don’t think many would disagree. Just this week I had a person express to me, in wonderment, that it looks like because of all our scientific and medical breakthroughs humans could all be living past 100 years old. Now I think that’s incredible, yet I laughed to myself to think that scripture states people lived to be hundreds of years old…
by DR. GLENN CLEARIE, DC
As reference, check out Genesis 5:27 or Deuteronomy 34:7. I would quote it myself for you but a little homework hasn’t hurt any of us. So long healthy living is not something new. It’s just new to us as we seemingly forgot our past. Dare I even further say that even if the possibility exists that more and more of us, or the next generation or two, actually cross over the centurion mark, I

am not convinced it will be with all facilities intact and fully operational. Said another way, we might live longer yet I don’t see living that long healthier. Said even a more pessimistic way, I think we will just be sicker longer… Now that talk isn’t much like me. In fact, I have clearly come to understand that every breath I take is literally on God’s good time. That’s it. That’s my natural perspective. You don’t need to agree or even finish reading the rest of this article, but I sure hope you do. Enough with pessimism. What can we do or better yet, instill in our children and our children’s children that could make even the slightest difference in their health and walking out an incredibly long and healthy life? Well I don’t think it’s the reliance on solely more and more medicine. No, there has got to be more to it. I truly do not feel longevity is all about a pill or potion. Nor do I feel the necessities for longevity is the same for everyone. If that was the case my granny wouldn’t have lived into her nineties never have taken a vitamin, drinking her tea with a heap of cane sugar, and sipping on Johnny Walker Red once it was after 7 p.m. I think what kept her alive was her wee boys, namely my brothers and me. You should have heard her sing Danny Boy to my brother Daniel in that ole’ Scottish burr. It was something to remember and remember it well I do. For the record, it wasn’t a brogue and my granny would want me to make that distinction. So the next generation will have to figure it out when they get there I suppose. I do wonder

In other news, township residents will soon have a limit on how many cans they can put out for garbage. The township’s contract with Advanced Disposal, which used to allow for unlimited garbage cans, now only allows for three cans. Supervisors voted to accept the change. For the month of July, residents will still be allowed to put out unlimited cans. Starting on August 1, residents will be limited to three garbage cans. Residents who will require more cans must purchase stickers from the township. Only Supervisor Dale Hassler was against the change. He said such a sudden change is not fair to residents.

That’ll Be The Day
Buddy Holly was a singer/songwriter whose records, conveying a sense of the wide-open spaces of West Texas and unstoppable joie de vivre, remain relevant today. Born on Sept. 7, 1936, in Lubbock, Texas, Buddy Holly was an American singer/songwriter who produced some of the most distinctive and influential work in rock music. Already well versed in several music styles, he was a seasoned performer by age 16. With hits such as 'Peggy Sue' and 'That'll Be the Day,' Buddy Holly was a rising star when a tragic plane crash struck him down in 1959 at age 22. The Northampton Community College runs a summer theater series every summer. The plays attract actors from all over the country and I recently went to see the Buddy Holly show. Here’s what I knew before I went… I knew he died tragically and I knew his songs. After seeing the show, I learned so much more, especially about his tenacity, his drive and his ability to know he

If your answer is “That’ll Be The Day” stop here and just go on as business as usual. Or, “That’ll Be The Day” when I decide to change my mind and do something different. Most of us only change our minds when staying the same becomes too hard. Here are some tips for taking your business to a whole new level. 1. Be enthusiastic every single day, set the example. 2. Listen to your clients/customers, they will tell you what they need and then give it to them 3. Take risks, step outside the box, and try something new. Buddy was only 22 when he

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip I’ve enjoyed a couple of days without the high humidity, but when it’s that way it knocks all the sense out of you. Hurricane Barry hasn’t affected us much, but it may bring some torrential rain like we had on July 9, 1945, 74 years ago last Tuesday. How many remember that? In minutes a child drowned, it was a big mass of mud after the water receded, damaging foundations and streets. Water has a lot of power when it comes pouring down all at once. . . The Phillies managed only one win against Washington and that came on a 9th inning walk off homer. Now we’re taking on L.A. That’s even tougher. You can’t afford to lose any games. Ye Olde Editor is going through all sorts of therapy and it’s exhausting him. Sometimes the therapists are standing in line, 3 or 4 at one time. But it’s all needed, so he has to get over it. Anyhow, he’s making out O.K. and sends his thanks to The Home News for the beautiful flowers. And enjoys all the attention he’s getting from the nurses. They’re wonderful! Just like Elmira . . . Try to cool off in all this heat, even if only for a few minutes. Have a great week.

the cement from our plants; trucks were in the distant future. Bath also was a part of a trolley system, the long forgotten system transported passengers to Tatamy, Easton, Bangor, Pen Argyl, Wind Gap and Bethlehem. One stop at Penn Allen required passengers to exit the train, walk a few steps and board another trolley. Penn Allen Cement demanded this be done as they controlled the right way; sounds foolish doesn’t it! In April of 1917 the United States entered the “Great War,” World War I. Seventy men from Bath served in the military. A group of women formed a group named “Needle Guild.” They prepared medical supplies, knitted and made various garments for the soldiers. The organization even adopted a World War I orphan. After the war a group of veterans met at the Bath Hotel and organized an American Legion Post and named the Post after Eckley Patch, a local veteran who served in World War I. Initially, they met in a store until a legion home was con-

structed on land donated by Keystone Cement. The “golden twenties” saw a booming economy; there was employment for everyone. Bath joined the boom. There were football, basketball and baseball teams. For outdoorsmen, the East Bath Rod & Gun Club and the Keystone Gun Club were organized. The Home News provided readers with hometown news. Some still remember the Halbfoersters stationary store on Main Street with a printing press humming in the back room. The last editor and friend Bill Halbfoerster challenged me over 25 years ago to write a history column, so this so called “writer” picked up his #12 Faber pencil and started writing. I still have an endless supply of the graphite fabers. The prosperity of the ‘20s collapsed in October of 1929 with the Stock Market crash. Fortunes and savings were lost, ushering in The Great Depression. Locally, our ce-
ment plants worked only a few months each year, farm prices fell to all time lows, and unemployment reached 25 percent.

If you don’t know where it is, check the instruction manual and follow directions on how to remove and replace it. Hold the filter up to the light. If it’s dark and dirty, it’s time for a new one.

Trim bushes and relocate plants so that none touches the home’s siding or foundation. Clear vegetation and debris under decks and steps.

Nazareth Pallet holds annual safety event
By DAWN DUDECK TUNNEY Nazareth Pallet held it's ninth Safety Event on Thursday, July 11 in Northampton. The business recently celebrated its 35th anniversary and has been making an event out of their annual safety day for the past five years. Ken Laga, Director of Marketing, said their employees have a tough job using dangerous equipment and deserve a day full of education on preventive and protective safety procedures. Laga explained that the information can also be beneficial to the employees in their private lives. The company enlists the help of their insurance companies and community health organizations to make the event a success. This year's topics included what to do in an active shooter situation prepared by the Odell Studner Company Risk Management Team and maintaining proper hydration in the heat and intense physical activity by the company's insurance provider, Capital Blue Cross. They also performed skin cancer screenings on site during the demonstration-half of the event. Northampton EMTs were also present, giving instructions on how to properly apply a tourniquet and valuable first aid tips for situations that may arise in their work environment. The Miller Bloodbank Bus was also present and their donation schedule was completely full with employees signed up. The afternoon was brought to a close by a special appearance from the Iron Pigs Bacon and Ham-

side the machine and duct. Remove the lint filter and use a long-handled vent brush (ask for one at hardware stores) to clean as much of the cavity as you can. Carefully clean behind the machine without disturbing the vent attachment or gas line. Use the vent brush or a rag to reach into the vent from outside and remove all the lint you can reach. When finished, turn on the dryer and go outside to look at the vent. Is exhaust air coming out? If not, look for blockage in the vent or exhaust duct. If necessary, disconnect the duct from the dryer to thoroughly clean the exhaust path.

Emrick’s bills to protect Taxpayers and local Municipalities signed into law Submitted by ABBEY HASLAM After receiving unanimous support from the General Assembly, two bills drafted by state Rep. Joe Emrick (R-Nazareth) to save taxpayers and local municipalities money were signed into law by Gov. Tom Wolf. Before the passage of Emrick’s bills, municipalities were required to pay for separate advertisements each year to advertise their budget and their tax rate, despite – in many cases – the tax rate not changing from the previous year. Emrick’s legislation eliminates the need for municipalities to advertise their tax rate unless it increases from the previous year, saving the taxpayers the expense of advertising a tax rate that hasn’t changed. “Because it can cost as much as $1,000 each time to advertise tax rates in the newspaper, eliminating the need to advertise tax rates that haven’t increased translates into savings for taxpayers. It also offers another incentive for municipalities to avoid raising
taxes,” Emrick said. Act 50 of 2019 amends the First Class Township Code, and Act 51 of 2019 amends the Borough and Third Class City codes. Both laws enable the property tax millage rate to be assessed by resolution, rather than ordinance, as long as the local municipality keeps the current tax rate the same or reduces taxes. “These laws were created with the principle of saving taxpayer money in mind, and I am proud that they received unanimous support from both chambers of the General Assembly. Having the full support of my colleagues proves how beneficial the legislation is for all Pennsylvanians,” Emrick added.

The Little Foxes
The “little foxes, that spoil the vines” (Song of Solomon 2:15) are “pet” sins excused as harmless, but certain to destroy fruitfulness and growth in a Christian’s life! They are the “little” soft choices of the Proverbs 6:9-12 sluggard resulting in spiritual “poverty” and “want.” “Little foxes” desensitize little by little! That which was once viewed as shocking, repulsive, vile, and immoral becomes acceptable and normal! Christians who in the past experienced Holy Spirit conviction over watching TV have adapted to trash far worse today— yet they feel no compunction! Why? “Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?” (I Corinthians. 5:6) “For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning” (II Peter 2:20). Let one of these “little foxes” find refuge in your life and it won’t be long until his cousin foxes will be invited in! Jesus said an “unclean spirit” does just that, “Then goeth he, and taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first” (Luke 11:26). Tolerating “little foxes” or “little” sins that you once would have resisted indicates you are headed away from God. God says, “...if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him” (Hebrews 10:38). Jesus says, “...I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love” (Revelation 2:4). You’d better destroy those “little foxes” before they “spoil the vines.” -Written by Pastor Daniel E. Lundmark
