Winner of Bath motto Contest honored
By KERI LINDENMUTH Charles McIlhaney, the winner of Bath’s motto competition, was honored by Mayor Fiorella Mirabito and members of council. McIlhaney’s motto, “Borough of Bath, History Nestled with Friendship,” was chosen by council out of more than 80 entries. McIlhaney was given a gift bas-
ket with over 125 dollars in gift cards from borough businesses. The competition was created by council’s newest member, Councilman Frank Hesch. He said a new motto will help spread the spirit of the borough and build off the events, changes, and growth the borough is experiencing.
“Borough of Bath, History Nestled with Friendship”
By KERI LINDENMUTH Shortly after Pavlov Place, an alley which runs from Main Street to Silk Mill Street in Bath, was paved, residents started to notice heavy rains flooding the backsides of their properties. Resident Derrick Devaney of Northampton Street appeared before the Borough of Bath Council during their monthly meeting on Monday, October 1, to voice his concerns about the flooding. Rainwater coming off the newly paved alley floods as much as two inches, Devaney said, and even gets into his garage. Neighbors’ properties are also flooding, he added. In a meeting with borough officials at his property, Devaney was told that a drain field and infiltration system will help alleviate the flooding. However, when Devaney asked whether the borough could assist, he said the answer was no, even though he said the alley never flooded before. “I do not feel like this should be all my problem because I never had this before,” he said. “I cannot wrap my head around the prospect that this is my problem now.” This is a problem, Devaney said, others will soon have to face once winter comes and freezes the water. He cites safety concerns for children walking to school, garbage men, and other residents who use the alley to travel through the borough. “These are issues that are more Continued on page 7
Cement Worker of The MonthRodney Hartzell by ED PANY Mr. Rodney Hartzell was reared in Nazareth, graduating from Nazareth High School in 1971. His first job was at a local textile factory, earning $3.50 per hour. In 1973 Rodney followed his three uncles and was hired at the Nazareth Cement Co. starting on the labor gang. One of the former managers was Mr. Paul Lentz. The plant at that time operated eight kilns. There were various jobs no longer found at cement plants. The roof cleaners, sweepers and dust collector men have been replaced by modern clean technology. The Nazareth plant was owned by Coplay Cement who decided to construct a new plant on the site. As a result, Mr. Hartzell was laid off until the plant was completed. The plant ownership changed to Essroc in 1978 and to Lehigh Heidelberg in 2017. Rodney returned in 1980 and worked in the labor department and quarry, later moving to the electric gang. He recalls old times with Jim Roth, Clayton Biechy and Richard Fox, who shared their knowledge with him. Presently, he is a production technician. Rodney said, “I spend each day checking plant equipment. There are 10 members in the department. I work with electrical components, which have become more complex in the past 45 years I have been at the plant. Some problems are very challenging and difficult to diagnose. I enjoy my job and usually work alone. We have more problems in the summer than in the winter because

some of the units are heat sensitive.” One of his proudest memories was when he received a letter of commendation from the plant management for solving a kiln problem. He feels the management of the plant is much better today than in the past. Mr. Hartzell speaks quietly with a calm demeanor. Highly respected by his coworkers, he has a vast knowledge of the plant gained by years of hands-on experience, truly a dedicated cement worker. He has been married to the former Helen Sinott for 21 years. They met at Musikfest. They have three daughters; Christine, Amanda and Kelly. Mr. Hartzell Continued on page 5

Investigators back on scene Of deadly Allentown car blast ASSOCIATED PRESS (AP) Authorities said Monday that the three people who died in a car explosion in downtown Allentown, including a father and his toddler son, all knew each other, but the cause of the explosion remained under investigation. The Lehigh County coroner identified the three dead as Jacob Schmoyer, 26, and his 2-year-old son Jonathan Schmoyer, as well as David Hillman, 66— who was a friend of the older Schmoyer, authorities said. Don Robinson, special agent in charge with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, declined to talk about a possible motive or a cause of the explosion. “Obviously we are dealing with an explosion — that could be anything from an accident to a device, an explosive device,” Robinson said Monday. But on Sunday, District Attorney James Martin told reporters at a news conference that he believed there had been a crime. “We know there’s been a criminal incident,” District Attorney James Martin told reporters at a news conference Sunday. “We have a high degree of confidence that the perpetrator was probably killed in the incident.” Martin did not speak at the press conference Monday, and it was unclear whether ATF investigators believed either man had purposely caused the explosion. Investigators returned to the area of the explosion early Monday with about 30 of them combing the scene, most of them from the ATF. Some wore hazmat suits. Robinson said agents had removed three cars to continue examining evidence, but said the scene would likely be cleared later Monday. The three were found dead after the 9:30 p.m. Saturday blast,

according to Lehigh County Coroner Scott Grim. He said the three died from traumatic injuries related to the explosion. Officials said the blast was believed to have been an isolated incident with no ongoing threat to the public. Authorities released no information about the possible cause of the blast, including whether it was a bomb, but Martin said “loads of us in law enforcement” are confident “this was A. an isolated incident and B. there’s no continuing threat.” Authorities are seeking the public’s help and asked anyone with information to call the ATF. Resident Carlos Perodin told The Morning Call of Allentown that he was watching a movie with his wife when he heard a thunderous explosion and went to the scene. “The fire was crazy,” he said. “The car was pretty much split in half.” Stephanie Connelly, who saw the aftermath of the explosion, told The Morning Call that she saw body parts strewn across the street. A bus station was turned into a makeshift command center with armored vehicles, dozens of police cruisers, mobile command units and even portable bathrooms, the paper reported. Several portable tents were also erected for evidence processing. Residents were asked to avoid the area, and people who live nearby were asked to shelter in place. A shelter was set up at an elementary school.
Fire Prevention Week: Look. Listen. Learn.
 submitted by DANIELLE ADAMS In a typical fire, you may have as little as one to two minutes to escape safely from the time the smoke alarm sounds. Knowing how to use that brief amount of time wisely takes planning and practice. Fire Prevention WeekTM, working to educate communities about the basic, but essential, steps to take to reduce the likelihood of having a fire and how to escape, will be held October 7-13, 2018. American Trauma Society, Pennsylvania Division (ATSPA) Assistant Director, Allyson Fulton, M.Ed., informs individuals, “We know that people often make choices in fire situations that jeopardize their safety and sometimes cost them their lives. Fire Prevention Week works to educate the public about the basic, but very essential, ways to quickly and safely escape a home.” The 2018 campaign, “Look. Listen. Learn. Be aware. Fire can happen anywhereTM” highlights

5 East Allen residents unhappy Fire Prevention Continued from page 4 Truck restrictions lifted on With Monocacy Drive three steps people can take to help quickly and safely escape a Willowbrook Road Improvements fire: up at Radar Drive to announce By KERI LINDENMUTH • Look: Look for places fire October 4-10, 2018
By KERI LINDENMUTH East Allen Township residents who live on Monocacy Drive spoke out during the September 27 Board of Supervisors meeting to express concerns about the road work taking place on their street. With early phases of the roadwork completed, residents are unhappy with a large gap between the newly paved street and their driveways. Residents said the gap not only looks terrible, but also causes them to worry about damage to their cars. Since the township hired a contractor to do the work, residents reasoned, the township should work with that contractor in question to get the issue fixed. However, according to township engineer James Milot, the space between the street and the driveways is intentionally engineered for drainage reasons. In the contract the township signed for the Monocacy Drive improvement project, it was stipulated that such a space would be no more than one and a half inches. Filling in this space is left up to property owners.
However, township supervisors agreed to send an engineer to the road to measure the gap. If it is larger than what is allowed, they will work with the contractor to have it fixed. With the rest of Monocacy Drive awaiting improvements, residents warned that the township would have “a lot of unhappy residents” if something is not done. In other news, the township received $32,976 in a grant from the disbanded Northampton County Gaming Authority. Those funds will be distributed to the township’s parks and recreation department, public works department, and administration office. Security cameras will be purchased for Bicentennial Park, backhoe equipment will be purchased for public works, and a new phone system will be purchased for township administrators. Township Manager Brent Green hopes the new cameras in the park will deter vandalism, which has become more common in recent months. There will be three cameras that film up to two to three weeks of real-time activity.

The Allen Township Board of Supervisors lifted truck restrictions on Willowbrook Road. Supervisors made the amendment to the township code during their September 25 meeting. The amendment lifts the restriction of trucks traveling from the Hanover Township border to Radar Drive. However, restrictions remain intact north of Radar Drive. This change, explained township solicitor B. Lincoln Treadwell, is due to the improvements made on Willowbrook Road with the arrival of the new FedEx warehouse. Due to the road improvements, there is no longer a traffic study that says it is not feasible to have trucks on Willowbrook Road. Currently, the township is looking into putting signs

that truck traffic is prohibited north of the intersection. State police are unable to enforce this rule unless a sign is there. In other news, the township rejected all bids for the construction of their future salt storage shed. While the township estimated a cost of 85 dollars per square foot to construct the shed, bidding construction companies priced the project significantly higher at 146 dollars per square foot. Township engineer Box Cox recommended loosening the construction timeframe and sending the project out to bid again. He predicted that tariffs, the compressed schedule, and the upcoming winter added to the price. The next Allen Township Board of Supervisors meeting will be held on Tuesday, Oct 9.

could start. Take a good look around your home and identify potential fire hazards and take care of them. • Listen: Listen for the sound of the smoke alarm. You could have only minutes to escape safely once the smoke alarm sounds. Go to your outside meeting place, which should be a safe distance from your home and a place where everyone should know to meet. • Learn: Learn two ways out of every room and make sure all doors and windows leading outside open easily and are free of clutter. Fulton concluded, “No matter where you are, look for available exits. If the alarm system sounds, take it seriously and exit the building immediately.” For more information, contact the ATSPA at 717-766-1616 and atspa@atspa.org, or visit the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) website at https://www.nfpa.org/.

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip Here we are in October already. It’s the month for the Halloween parades and when the kids go out for Trick or Treat. They always enjoy that time when they can collect plenty of candy from homes they visit. There’s a clip out coupon in the paper for people and organizations to sign up for the Halloween parade in Bath on October 23rd. The firefighters will bring out all their trucks as usual, along with scouts and sports groups. Let’s hope the weather is good, but if it isn’t there’s a rain date of the following night. . . .And the traditional hunting seasons are approaching when 75,000 hunters across Pennsylvania will be taking to the fields and woods in search of game birds and animals. Unfortunately, the number of hunters is down from the early 1990’s when there were 350,000 hunters. . . .Boy, that chicken barbecue was good on Sunday up at the 4-H Center in Bushkill Center. The horse show was good and worth watching, plus other things as they had an open house as part of a tour on Sunday. Keep up the good work, 4-H’ers. . . .Looks like all the bowling leagues are in full swing at the Bath Legion . . . .But I’d say the Phillies sure haven’t been in full swing. They only won one of their last ten games, swept by Colorado and the Atlanta Braves on the road trip. They finished the season on a high note, beating the Braves in two of three
games, so they’re looking forward to 2019. . . The Eagles football game on Sunday was a loser as they played the Titans down South in Tennessee, with quarterback Carson Wentz back in action again after last year’s injury. The Eagles committed too many penalties, giving the Titans the yards they needed when the Eagles’ defense wasn’t good enough. . . .I thought the farmers’ market had another week, but their last day was this past Friday. They had Bobby Siegfried playing some rock and roll music, and Estelle Catering brought her catering to the park for some good food. The apple cider was tasty, and there were lots of things to buy besides fruits and vegetables. See them next spring! . . . . We didn’t make all of the farms on the open gate farm tour, but there sure were a lot of farms to visit in the county over the weekend. Thanks to all those who opened their farms for the visitors. The weather was good enough to enjoy the visit by hundreds of people. . . . I don’t know if teachers are part of that Distinguished Alumni Award they’re naming, but I’d nominate Ed Pany, who taught at Northampton High School years ago and is now curator of the Atlas Cement Museum. . . .Elmira bought a pumpkin over a Seiple’s farm and made a couple pies. I’m digging into a slice or two right now. Till next week, so long!

Horner’s Cemetery Historical Society Thank you
Submitted by PEGGY MOSER Thank you to all those who helped make Craig's Settlement 290th Anniversary Festival such a success. We were glad you joined us for such a historical event. We hope you enjoyed the cemetery tours. To those who could not make the event, Horner's Cemetery, the oldest cemetery in Northampton County, is located in the middle of the settlement. We raised, and still are raising, funds for stainless steel name tags for the early 1700s tombstones that cannot be read. Perpetual care for this preRevolutionary cemetery ran out many years ago and is cared for by a few members of the community. Checks can still be sent to: Horner's Cemetery Historical Society and mailed to 5800 Nor-Bath Blvd. Bath PA 18014. Saturday morning tours will continue until the end of October. Thanks again, Horner's Cemetery Historical Society

than just mine,” he said. Borough councilmen and women were sympathetic to Devaney’s concerns, but legal questions prevent them from providing Devaney and his neighbors with a solution as of now. “We would like to help anyway we can, [but we] need to
see what we can legally do,” said Councilman Frank Hesch. Beginning this conversation though, both council and Devaney stated, is a start. In other news, council approved the Verizon Cellular monopole proposal. Solicitor Blake Marles said the company approved a number of changes at the request of the borough and gave the borough a fair offer. “They came in with their best offer up front,” he said. Mayor Fiorella Mirabito also
spoke about the response to the State Police in the borough. Feedback, she said, has been positive. She said residents with any concerns regarding the state police should email her. She also added any residents with event requests for the police should reach out to her first before inundating the police with requests. Finally, for the 20th Anniversary of the HARB (Historical Architectural Review Board), the organization has received $10,000 in matching façade

NAZARETH AREA
HFS alumnus transforms shower stalls into storage closets submitted by KRISTINE PORTER Holy Family School’s unused girls’ locker room got a makeover. Alumnus Jonathan Boucher turned the space into two large storage closets for his Eagle Scout project. “I chose the locker room because it was what the school need-
ed the most at that time,” Boucher said. He is a Life Scout member of Troop 74 in Bushkill Township and a senior at Nazareth Area High School. He met with the school’s principal, Christine Bruce, in October of 2017 to discuss his idea and find out what she thought would make a good project.

Located at Nazareth Circle, Main St. Pumpkins & Pooches, Sat. Oct 13 Pet Parade with prizes Pumpkin bowling and pumpkin patch Free face painting About us The Nazareth Farmers’ Market has long been a labor of love to provide our community with locally grown fresh produce, grass fed meats, baked goods, honey, peanut butter, pierogies, cheese, eggs, and more!
“It’s always great to have more storage space,” Bruce said. Then Boucher drew up a design that would work in the space. He calculated the project cost to be at least $1,200, so he created a Go Fund Me page and asked for donations through the church bulletin. “People were very generous, and I was able to raise over $1,200,” Boucher said. The money was used to purchase materials to construct walls and shelving. Then he coordinated the work with a plumber and custodians, who were needed to help remove the existing plumbing in the walls of the shower stalls after school was out for the summer. Members of his troop, family and friends all helped him get the project completed before school started. Construction ran from June through August. “It’s fabulous,” Bruce said. “It looks like I hired a professional to do it.” Boucher said he decided to pursue the Eagle Scout rank because he’s met many former scouts who didn’t pursue it and regretted it. “Scouting has been a part of my life for the past 12 years, during which time I’ve learned a lot,
made a lot of good friends and made a lot of great memories,” he said. “I’ve been in scouting since
the first grade, so to me there was no turning back until I attained Eagle Rank.”

Is Everyone Saved?
Some say everyone will go to heaven because Jesus died to save all mankind. Such a conclusion is ridiculous according to the Scriptures! Jesus said, “Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God” (John 3:3). This birth “of the spirit” (v.5) is an absolute necessity (v.7) to get into heaven. One must believe in Jesus Christ! “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). Faith in Christ is required, “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned” (Mark 16:16). That’s clear enough! The Apostle Paul told the jailer in Philippi, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved” (Acts 16:30-31). Right now, Jesus is at the door of your heart saying, “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me” (Revelation 3:20). Your response is required. You must “open the door” of your heart to enjoy fellowship with Jesus! The Bible says, “If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved” (Romans 10:9). “For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved” (Romans 10:13). Your eternal destination depends on what you do with Jesus. John 1:10 tells us “the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.” The next verse mentions His rejection by the Jews, “He came unto his own, and his own received him not.” Then we are told, “As many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name” (see www.naog.ws/theway.htm). Will you believe on Jesus and receive Him into your heart now?

wife received a large trophy. The Lioness ladies had two food stands serving homemade cabbage and noodles, sausage, peppers and onions on a roll as well as hot dogs, hamburgers, fries, pierogies and ice cream. Making sure all the food was purchased, prepared and served was their chairlady Lioness Rochelle Rinker. Not to be outdone by the Lionesses, the Lions also sold hot dogs and had birch beer on tap, a hit with most people. This year they were honored to have District 14-K Governor Karlene Laub assist in the outdoor food stand. Lion Karlene was a huge help and a real trouper. She stayed the entire day. Along with all the antique cars, one of the ball fields was full of flea market vendors as well as a DJ who serenaded everyone as they strolled about. To complete the day, the car show raffle tickets, sold during the day, were drawn and winners announced for the 10 money prizes.
