Speaking of drama, Bath had a native son who became
a famous solo baritone singing with the Metropolitan and the Chicago Civic Opera. The Bath Museum has one of his
50 cents
records from 1906 on which he sings Faust "Even Bravest Heart." The museum also has three photos of him, two of which are of him portraying opera characters. The photo with a hat is autographed "To my friend and pupil Delbert Siegfried." Siegfried, another resident of Bath, donated these items to the museum and was
instrumental in preserving many historic Bath artifacts and raising money for the preservation of the Siegfried cabin on West Main Street. You'll find the most fascinating things at the Bath Museum. The Bath Museum is open free to the public every third Saturday of the month from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Currently it
is located on the second floor of the Bath Municipal Building at Penn and Washington Streets. Mark October 21 on your calendar and come out and visit this local treasure. P.S. The Governor Wolf Historical Society, located just south of Bath, also has their museum open the same date from 1 to 3 p.m.
Northampton first responders Moore Township Recognized by Borough Council Supervisors approve Purchase for new Police vehicle
By KERI LINDENMUTH The Northampton Borough Council took time to praise Northampton’s first responders for their dedication and hard work at the council’s public workshop meeting on Thursday, October 5. It was announced during the meeting that the Northampton Regional Emergency Medical Services was awarded recognition as EMS Agency of the Year (Large Agency Division) by the PA Department of Health and PA Emergency Health Services Council. “We are blessed to have this ambulance service based in the borough,” said Councilwoman Judy Kutzler. “[They are] three to five minutes away from any home or business.” “It is good to know that when people are having a worse time, they [the EMS] are the ones serving above and beyond,” agreed Councilman Tony Pristash.
The recognition for the EMS is fitting, said Councilman Anthony Lopsonzski, Sr. He explained that the EMS saved his life twice. He was even the first patient the EMS had in 1966.
----------------------We have a fire department…that [is] second to none in the state.” Judy Kutzler -----------------------
The EMS was not the only group of first responders recognized, however. Council praised the police department under new police chief, Chief Bryan Kadingo. Council especially appreciates the new bicycle patrols Chief Kadingo has put into place. “I think all you have to do is look at them [the police department],” says Lopsonzski, Sr.
“When you look at a situation and you see people running away, who do you see running to?” Finally, the Northampton Fire Department was also recognized with a Golden Deed Award, presented by the Northampton Exchange Club. Councilman Kenneth Hall, the Northampton Fire Department's fire police captain, accepted the award. “We have a fire department… that [is] second to none in the state,” said Kutzler. She said she personally knows what it is like to watch your home burn and not know if people will come to help. She praised the fire department for their constant training, their fast response, and their work in the community. However, she said they need help. A majority of the volunteers on the fire department are between 50 and 70 years old, she said. More volunteers are needed. Continued on page 2
By JUSTIN SWEITZER Supervisors in Moore Township approved funds to purchase a new police vehicle at their Oct. 3 meeting, as the township’s force looks to move on from a current vehicle suffering from mechanical problems. The Board of Supervisors motioned to purchase a 2017 Ford Explorer for $47,000 to replace the police force’s 2010 Ford Crown Victoria. The Crown Victoria has a catalytic converter problem, as well as an engine miss, according to Supervisor Richard Gable. Gable suggested the board move forward with the purchase because the township already had money for the vehicle in the budget.
“We need to do it. The money is in the budget,” he said. The purchase will be from Kovatch Ford Dealership of Nesquehoning, Pennsylvania. “Those Ford Explorers have turned out to be a pretty reliable vehicle, especially the new version,” Supervisors Chairman David Tashner said. “So I think that’s the way to go.” The rest of the board ultimately Continued on page 3

Councilman Lopsonzski, Sr. agreed. “If you have some time, join the auxillary,” he said. “You [will] be adding to the safety and serenity of this community.” “We as a community need to make sure they are given every tool they need to protect and serve our borough,” Kutzler said. “They will lay down their life for
you…I suggest if they ask you for a box of pencils, you give them two.” Other news in Northampton: • With Northampton Borough and surrounding areas, like Allen and East Allen Townships, impacted by the invasive Spotted Lantern Fly species, the First Regional Compost Authority (FRCA) may cease operations if they become infested by the species.

• The Tama building on Main Street, while still not on schedule, is a private project, which means the borough has no ability to fine the developer. “It is a difficult situation,” said borough solicitor Steven Goudsouzian. The borough can stop granting the developer extensions, but that would mean the borough would have to start over from the beginning of the project with a new developer. “Our hands are basically tied,” said Councilman Ed Pany. “We have tried to do our best by working with the government.”

agreed, as Gable motioned to purchase the vehicle, and Daniel Piorkowski seconded. In more police-related business, Piorkowski brought up that since the Borough of Bath opted out of the Colonial Regional Police Department, Moore Township may be required to cover for the Pennsylvania State Police in emergency situations. Piorkowski questioned the township’s legal obligation to cover for the borough, since the township is not under a mutual aid agreement with the Borough of Bath. Piorkowski’s main concern was that Moore Township taxpayers would contribute to Bath’s police coverage without getting reimbursed. “Who reimburses the taxpayers in Moore Township?” Piorkowski asked. According to Solicitor David Backenstoe and Gable, township’s are expected to cover for the state police, but their is no formal agreement between either party.
October 12-18, 2017 3
Tashner cautioned against the idea of getting into the township’s legal obligation to cover for the state police, saying, “That’s a war you don’t want to start.” The Klecknersville Rangers Volunteer Fire Company submitted their September report to the board, noting that the volunteer fire company responded to 27 fire calls with 167 man hours for the month. There were also 55 ambulance calls that were responded to with a total of 220 man hours recorded. Three of the fire calls were for fires, two were for motor vehicle accidents, one was for fire police, one was for an automatic fire alarm, one was for an ambulance assist, and four were for mutual aid. There were two fire calls for downed trees, two for downed fires and 11 for controlled burns. In other business, the board of supervisors agreed to change the date of November meeting due to conflicts with Election Day in November. The township’s November meeting will be held on Thursday, Nov. 9 at 7 p.m.

Natural perspectives For the health-minded individual
What really Matters
I write this week’s column as continued news and coverage of the Las Vegas shooting unfolds. Countless lives injured and lost that day and still a multitude of lives touched and changed along with it. Horrific. More than once this past week I have heard individuals state that it takes something like this to happen to make us realize what truly matters in life. Candidly, I held my wife and children a little closer. I prayed more reverently, longer, more focused, and with a greater humbleness than just a few short days ago. Where do we go from here? Just a few weeks ago, the news was discussing a date that was the supposed end of life as we know it on planet earth. I watched a brief online video that demonstrated the perfect alignment of celestial stars that validated the theory and that could beckon the end times. I must say I did get goosebumps and thought more deeply about the “what if it is” scenario. Through all of this and other issues that are affecting us, you may find yourself experiencing emotional turmoil, fear, confusion and more. If you are, please know these are common human responses and you won’t always feel like this. Feelings can lie to us. I need you to understand that point. Emotions can deceive you. Take a moment and collect your-

self. It’s going to be okay. I promise you. Close to thirty years ago my then girlfriend (now my wife) was concerned with just how terrible things were in the world. I remember it clearly. It was a time when you are transitioning from a teenager into a young adult and starting to see the world through a different lens and trying to make sense of it all. War, atrocities, and horrors as is occurring presently, was occurring “back then.” It was our awareness of these world issues and feeling helpless that had caused my wife such distress. Do you know that feeling? I have and still do…. When she approached her father for guidance and clarity on the subject of “why do bad things have to happen and what if the world ends tomorrow” type discussion, he said something I will never forget. He said, “Stacey, you need to understand that the world ends for someone everyday.” He was right.

His comment was deeply heartfelt as he had been seriously ill for a long time and not long after succumbed to his illness. His world ended at a young age of 56. We all miss him terribly. He was a good, good man. I have said before in prior writings that my own father passed away at home with his whole family around him. As the end was drawing near and he could no longer speak sentences he looked at each one of us in turn and said one word. The most powerful word to be uttered. That word is “love.” When he could no longer keep his eyes open and his strength was failing he repeated the word love with each and every breath. He said it over and over and over. That’s the last thing he said as he slipped away. Man, that’s what it’s all aboutlove. Sure this world is screwed up. Yes, horror and devastation happens all around us and to us. I don’t want any part of it yet through it all love wins. It just does. Somehow, some way, without a doubt…Love wins. That’s what really matters. Peace and love be with you.

To risk Or not to Risk- five Reasons
Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, says, “The only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.” He could not be more right. So many business owners are so frightened of failure they never take the big jump, the large leap or the high dive. Learner's definition of risk-taking: the act or fact of doing something that involves danger or risk in order to achieve a goal. Starting a business always involves some risk-taking. When it comes to taking a risk, here are some of the risk-stoppers. When fear becomes more prevalent than your ability to see the future your business will not flourish. Here are the riskstoppers: Fear of failure. Your team doesn't support you taking risks. Your family cannot support a risk. There are several reasons why risk-taking can lead to success:
1. Taking risks shows you have confidence.
2. Taking risks helps you stand out in the crowd.
3. Taking risks always teaches you something. 4.
When looking to succeed, playing it safe doesn’t work.
5.
The bigger the risk, generally, the bigger the success.

Ahart’s Market Ahart’s Market Ahart’s Market Ahart’s Market Ahart’s Market Guess who learned from failure and embraced the to journey success? Oprah. Before she hosted a talk show that dominated daytime TV for 25 years and became the queen of her own media empire, she was demoted at one of her early jobs. After working as a news co-anchor, Oprah was put on morning TV -- a significant step down from her original role. Her initial failure arguably launched her on her path to incredible career success. Lucille Ball is now remembered as the first woman to run a major television studio. She was nominated for 13 Emmys and won four times. Ball's first films were failures, and she was even dubbed the "Queen of the B Movies" in the 1930s and 1940s. Luckily for all of us, Lucille Ball went on to star in "I Love Lucy" and paved the way for women in the entertainment industry. Because it’s so profound and so true, remember what Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, says, “The only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks.” It’s interesting to think that if you don’t take risks you are guaranteed to fail when the idea of failure prevents many from taking risks.

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip After quite a few days of sunshine, we had rain on Monday. It was from a tropical storm that evolved from Hurricane Nate. We could use the rain anyhow as long as it doesn’t rain for too long or too heavy. The crops are all harvested, so it was a good growing season. . . . Christ Church had some mighty fine quilts in a show last week. Boy, did Carl “Spundy” Rehrig ever have so many ties that Margie could make a design like that!! These quilts could give others at the Kutztown Folk Festival a run for their money. Way to go, gals! . . . .Hats off to Chuck Frantz and the East Allen Township summer camp kids for the help they gave to the Lehigh Valley Zoo over in Lehigh County. It’s a quality zoo with some beautiful animals. . . .The wild card games and National and American League playoffs have sure been exciting. The pitching has been great. With some teams out West in the mix they’re playing long into the night. I’m betting on Houston’s Astros / Cleveland Indians and the Los Angeles Dodgers to get into the World Series, but you never know. One home run here and there can change what happens. Those Yankees are hitting ‘em. . .The Bath Museum story last week about the play “House of the Flashing Light” that was put on in the Firemen’s Auditorium sure brought back memories of those in the cast of Ethel Bittenbender, Rebecca Abel, Myrtle Miltenberger, Bill Hawk, Dan Smith, Johnny Spanitz, Delbert Siegfried, Harry Frey, Bertha Moser, and Helen Shiffer. And in the production there were Elizabeth Sencenbach, Fred Angelstein, and M. B. Siegfried. Seats were only 25- cents, and if you wanted it reserved, you paid 40-cents. I was just a kid then, but I remember the names. Seems like yesterday. . . .Penn State keeps roll-
ing along in college football and Philly’s Eagles are doing okay, 4 and 1. They take on the Carolina Panthers tonight. . . . Penn Street should be the next street on the borough’s list for a layer of blacktop. My tires are getting riddled from all the potholes. . . .Time for another ball game. See you next week.

Dogs and cats living together, however, can lead to a problem: dogs like to dine out of the cat’s litter box. The reason may be boredom or instinct but most often it’s due
to a nutritional deficiency. Typically, cat feces contain lots of protein and fat and give off an odor that’s very appealing to dogs. The result is a nasty habit that could lead to health issues if not corrected. Fortunately, there’s a solution to deter dogs from snacking on cat stools. You simply give tasty NaturVet Outta My Box soft chews to both the dog and the cat. Outta My Box is veterinarian formulated with patentpending ProBioStrive and contains natural active ingredients that reduce the stool odors, making the litter box less desirable to dogs. They also help maintain an optimal GI balance in your dog to help him kick the cravings. For more information, visit www. naturvet.com or call 888-628-8783.

Act of God?
Have you heard the story of the small town in Kentucky that had two churches and a distillery owned by an avowed atheist? One night the people from the two churches called a special prayer meeting and spent the night praying that the distillery would close down. Shortly after midnight a storm blew in, lightning struck the distillery, and it burned to the ground! Well, the churches were elated; but the atheist wasn’t! His insurance company informed him that they couldn’t pay the claim because it was “an act of God.” So, the owner took the two churches to court to sue them for damages, which they claimed they weren’t responsible for. The presiding judge said, “This is the most perplexing case I have ever sat on because on one hand I have an atheist who claims to believe in the power of prayer and on the other hand I have two churches that deny it!” God does answer specific prayer requests—and when He does, we should be willing to give Him the credit! Jesus said, “And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it” (John 14:13-14). God answers a Christian’s prayer requests so that God gets the credit and the glory! Give God an opportunity to provide a testimony for His glory--take your problems to the Lord in prayer.
