In announcing the appointment, Anne Adams, Valley Youth House Senior Vice-President for Prevention and Intervention Services, said “We are delighted that Pam has joined our organization.

At their monthly meeting on Thursday night, Northampton Borough Council was given a progress report on construction of the new middle school by Schools Supt. Joseph Kovalchik. Chris Haller, engineer, showed slides of the sketch plans as well as ground work in as foundations are being laid with concrete blocks. There is no steel superstructure, and the concrete blocks are being used. The former vo-technical school branch is now a parking lot. The new Stadium Drive has been completed. Kovalchik noted that the old Plant 4 of the Universal Atlas Cement Co. structure built in 1905 was unearthed. A new basketball court will have lights in just about two weeks. A six-lane track will be put around the athletic field, in standard red color. There was a $55,000 savings there. Kovalchik said they are right on schedule with the project and it will be finished by June 2015, when the old junior high will be demolished. Councilman Anthony Lopsonzski, Sr. talked about making Lincoln Ave. one way at the Siegfried Elementary School, and use traffic cones. He said this would keep people moving, and said parents stopping to wave to their children often causes delays. Kovakchuk said parents will receive a letter on the traffic pattern, all in the interest of safety. There will be 10-minute parking in designated time periods. 50 cents

Allen Township’s Board of Supervisors have had requests from the local fire company and ambulance unit to have houses in the township numbered so they can find the location during emergencies. The fire chief said he’s not concerned with the color of the signs, but in a high density area home owners need to have some kind of reflective sign, as large as they wish, so long as the numbers are easily seen from the roadway. While the Uniform Construction Code calls for numbers four inches high, they should either be three or four inches. As the debate went on Thursday night, it was noted that on Howertown Rd.

the majority of House colleagues in moving House Bill 1437, the general appropriations portion of the 2013-14 state budget. The legislation contains no new taxes and spends $28.376 billion, a modest 2.3 percent increase over last year, which is within the rate of inflation. For the third consecutive year, Pennsylvania’s spending plan for the fiscal year ahead has been delivered on time using no new taxes. This budget forces state government to live within its means, just as you do with your own personal budget, while spending only what it has and not taking on new debt. The pending loss of $220 million due to federal government cuts to education, health and welfare programs makes avoiding the need to raise taxes especially important. With existing revenues, we supported essential services in the Commonwealth without placing an additional burden on the backs of the Pennsylvania taxpayer. A record $10 billion total state dollars is being invested in K-12 education as we continue to support our students. This is especially noteworthy, as we recover from the cuts to state funding imposed by the

Gab Over the Fence by Pete G. Ossip I wonder who the million dollar Powerball winner was from around here, who bought the ticket last Saturday at Ahart’s here in Bath. As far as I know, nobody has come around to claim the prize. They have a year to do it, but time’s a‘wastin! . . . . The local farmers market has had a pretty good season, with plenty of good fruits and vegetables growing this year on account of the weather we’ve had. This Friday, the 27th, is the last day that the market will be open, so get over there and do some real buying! After that, the next big event at Keystone Park will be Bath’s Community Day on the 5th of October with plenty of things to see and do. . . . I see Steve is gonna have a grand re-opening celebration this Thursday, the 28th, at 6:00 o’clock in the evening. His Town & Country Restaurant sure is a nice place to dine out. . . .Hats off to Peggy Moser (Dallas Spengler’s daughter) for all the work she and others have done the past couple of years restoring Horner’s Cemetery over near Weaversville along Rt. 329. I hear that she and other members of the Horner’s Cemetery Historical Society are planning an open house at the cemetery on the afternoon of October 19th to

honor the 285th anniversary of Craig’s Scotch-Irish Settlement. Wow! A big salute to those folks and members of the Governor Wolf Historical Society who have worked so hard over by the Wolf Academy and Ralston-McKeen House. History is important, and we should always remember that. . . . Phillies have named Ryne Sandberg their manager for the next three years. But if they don’t get better players, their record’s not gonna be any better than Charlie Manuel’s the last two years. They’ve lost another five games in a row. . . . Denver Broncos knocked off Oakland’s Raiders in football Monday night, so the Eagles will have a battle on their hands. Peyton Manning can’t be stopped the way it looks. His brother Eli can’t say the same for his New York Giants this year . . . . Gotta do some yard work. Have a good week, and stay healthy.

Getting ready in Relay For Life vs. Cancer The first Relay for Life team meeting for the 2014 season will be held in Fellowship Communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Auditorium, 3000 Fellowship Dr, Whitehall on Tuesday, October 8th at 6 pm. They are starting their 11th Season for the Relay For Life of Whitehall. Please make noise and come out and join Your Relay â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Anyone who lives, works or plays in Whitehall, Catasauqua, Northampton or the surrounding areas is welcome. Silence wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t finish this fight â&#x20AC;&#x201C; action will. To get loud, we need everyone in every community to join us today. Now is the time to obliterate cancer. Make some noise by becoming part of YOUR RELAY!! You, the public, are our best chance to fight this dreadful disease. Get involved, cheer others on, make our event known, and volunteer you time for a great cause. Please visit our website at www.relayforlife.org/ pawhitehall or visit us on Facebook at Relay For Life of Whitehall, Pa. Teams are usually made up

of three or more people, but you can be a one person team or a 30+ person team. Teams vary: Some have cancer survivors; some are in memory of someone who lost their fight with cancer; some have no personal involvement with cancer but know someone at work, church or through someone else. We ask that you raise $100 per team member. Once you start, you will find it easy to ask your friends for a $10 or $20 donation. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Team Recruitment and Retention Chair is Doreen Huber dorhub@ yahoo.com. She will run the team meeting, answer your questions, and motivate you throughout the year. 2013 was the American Cancer Societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 100th birthday. All the national marketing for the 2014 season will be focusing on creating more birthdays and encouraging all of us to help Finish the Fight against cancer!! After 100 years of saving lives and creating more birthdays, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re leading the way in working tirelessly to transform cancer

from deadly to treatable AND from treatable to preventable. Here are some statistics: â&#x20AC;˘ Today, 2 out of 3 people diagnosed with cancer are surviving (for at least five years). In fact, more than 400 people a day in the US are celebrating birthdays that would have otherwise been lost to the disease. â&#x20AC;˘ Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve contributed to a 20 percent decline in cancer death rates in the US since the early 1990s. That means weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve helped save nearly 1.2 million lives during that time. â&#x20AC;˘ Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played a role in nearly every cancer research breakthrough in recent history. â&#x20AC;˘ Each year, we help cancer patients everywhere get the help they need when they need it. For example, last year alone we assisted more than a million people who called us for help, providing free services like a place to stay while traveling for treatment, rides to treatment, emotional support, and much more. â&#x20AC;˘ Our work has helped lead to a 50 percent drop in smoking since the 1960s, which has contributed to a drop in overall lung cancer death rates. â&#x20AC;˘ Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll amplify our efforts to keep fighting for everyone to have access to quality health care, lifesaving screenings, clean air, and more. Join us on October 8th. Please contact Doreen or Shari Noctor, Event Chair, at shari@sharinoctor. com.

Grow UR Biz in 2013 – Nobody Tells Me Nothin’…

By CAROL RITTER

I was working in North Carolina a few years ago, giving a speech to an educational community. I arrived early, knocked on the door, and waited and waited and waited for someone to let me in. Suddenly a custodian appeared, I introduced myself and said, “ I’m the speaker for tonight’s event.” With a touch of anger, he said, “Nobody tells me nothin’.” I was on my own until the leadership team arrived because he was so disgruntled he could barely contain himself. So, the question is, who is responsibility is it to communicate with the custodian? Is it his? Should he be chasing the principal of the school to find out what’s going on or should the principal make sure he knows whats going on? Communication is the number one problem in most organizations. Just ask the staff. Information is power and lack of it creates an atmosphere of secrecy, hidden agendas and, most importantly, a great excuse for not doing your job. “Nobody Told Me.” What are the top ten communication strategies that work? 1. Be Transparent 2. Build Trust with all Employees 3. Practice Two-Way Com-

munication (respond within 24hours) 4. Don’t Ignore when you don’t have an Answer 5. Keep everyone in the Loop 6. Ask the staff what Communication is Important to them 7. Send a weekly or monthly info Update 8. Better to tell too much than not Enough 9. Train Staff on Kicked up Communication 10. Set an Example of high level Communication and your staff will follow Setting high expectations for your staff and colleagues gives you the ability to set the standard, implement the process and evaluate the communication that occurs internally and, more, importantly externally. “Nobody Tells Me Nothin” is not the phrase you want being communicated with your customers, your staff or your future customers. If “nobody tells you nothin” you can bet it’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Northampton and Nazareth both lose It has been a tough football season so far for Northampton’s Konkrete Kids and Nazareth’s Blue Eagles. Both were on the short end of scores this past Friday night. Northampton fell 41-24 to Bethlehem Catholic, so there was some encouragement there as they scored in three of the four quarters – 3, 7 and 14.

The Kids’ record is now 0-4 overall and 0-3 in the Lehigh Valley Conference. Nazareth was stymied until the final quarter, falling 27-7 to undefeated Whitehall. The only TD came in the fourth quarter on a 15-yard pass from back-up quarterback Justin Albert to Max Wasilewsky. The Eagles’ record is 2-2, 1-2.

Three Ways To Get Kids To Try (And Love) New Foods (NAPSI)—Here’s food for thought for parents looking to make nutritious foods and snacks more appealing to picky eaters, while saving valuable time in the kitchen. Expert’s Advice Nutrition expert Chobani Health Communications Manager Kara Lydon, RD, LDN, shares three easy steps for introducing nutritious new foods and getting kids excited about what they eat each day.

Tip 1: Share the shopping. Empower kids—and minimize morning mayhem—by working together as a family to create a weekly menu planner that starts with a trip to the grocery store. Encourage kids to help pick out any fruits and veggies they like, and then help plan dinners that feature those ingredients. Family menu planning not only makes life easier for parents, it teaches kids the value of planning ahead and

making thoughtful choices. Tip 2: Give kids a choice. Letting kids choose from an array of foods is a great way to pique interest and start building a foundation for healthy habits. Try a “pick and pack” approach that lets kids have the authority to customize breakfasts, lunches and snacks to their liking—while you control all the ingredients. For a weekend lunch, for instance, offer a range of breads with whole grains and a variety of foods that can be part of a nutritious sand-

wich, as well as presliced fruits and bite-size veggies. For an afternoon snack, include a variety of protein options to help fuel them, such as our authentic strained Chobani Champions Greek Yogurt Tubes for kids, made with only natural ingredients and real fruit, with 5 grams of protein per serving. Tip 3: Celebrate the “try.” Encourage kids to try one new food per week. Whether or not they like the first bite, training kids to be open to a wide variety of flavors and textures can help encourage healthy habits. The opportunity to try new foods has never been greater, with many grocery stores offering easy access to exotic fruits and vegetables. As an example, dragon fruits are from the cactus family and have an exotic, spiky look but taste like a refreshing blend of kiwi, pear, watermelon and mango with a tropical twist. Kids can enjoy the familiar flavor while getting the thrill of trying something new. They may like it freshly sliced or in Chobani Champions Flyin’ Dragon Fruit Greek Yogurt Tubes.

Do You Remember Preston O. Hess? By Beverly Putt Preston Oscar Hess was born on December 6, 1880. He was born at home in Seemsville. Preston's father, Frank, his grandfather and great grandfather were all farmers in the same general area of Seemsville. He attended a schoolhouse near his home in Seemsville up to fifth grade. He was confirmed by Pastor J. E. Smith on November 28, 1896, in the Immanuel Reformed Church in Moore Township. He married Anne "Annie" Balliet on September 26, 1903, in the Salem Church at Moorestown, PA, by Pastor J. E. Smith. They had two children: Warren and Ray. Before settling in at Cherryville

as the postmaster and manager of the P. O. Hess General Store, Preston had several jobs. In 1898, he worked at the Seemsville General Store and wanted to join the army at that time but had to finish working on the farm because it was the busy season of spring planting and seeding. When he was a young man, he worked as a telegrapher in Boston, Massachusetts, for about a year and also, sold books door to door. When he sold the books, if a certain number was sold, a free railroad trip was offered to Buffalo to see where McKinley was assassinated. (President William McKinley, 25th president of the United States, was shot and fa-

News Sermonette By Pastor Ken Reigard

Realize God’s Blessings

Preston O. Hess tally wounded on September 6, 1901, inside the Temple of Music on the grounds of the PanAmerican Exposition at Buffalo, New York, and died on September 14, 1901.) He sold the quota and did get to go to Buffalo that year. According to a certificate with the official seal from the Postmaster General of the United States of America, Preston O. Hess was commissioned as Postmaster on the 26th day of August, 1909. In those days, he was a fourth class postmaster, which meant that you did not get a regular salary but you received profits from the business. He was postmaster, as well as a storekeeper, for 40 years. While working in the general store, Preston acted as an agent for local farmers and ordered farm equipment for them which was always shipped by train. The farmers had to go to the Treichlers railroad station to pick the items up. He ordered from the company so his customers did not have to go through a dealer. At the general store, he sold bus trips for the Edwards Lake to Sea Bus Company. He also acted as a sort of real estate agent. When there was a sale or auction and a farm didn't sell, the people would leave the deed with him and people would come to him. His grandson, Bob Hess, said, "He was a gregarious person. He could talk to anybody." When Bob was young, he would visit his grandparents for 5 to 7 days at a time and help in the store. He said he always enjoyed coming to the store. There was delivery service and he remembered riding along with George Jacoby, an employee of his grandfather, to make Hess store deliveries to the local farmers in a little green Chevy panel truck with P. O. Hess -

Sometimes we forget the blessings…..we are prone to that. We wake up in a warm bed, in a cozy house filled with people we couldn’t imagine living without, have breakfast, and head on our way having lost our appreciation in the routine of it all. Several weeks ago now, my mom went home to be with Jesus after a two year battle with cancer. This has been more of a ‘wake-up call’ than I could have ever imagined. I have come to realize that many of the blessings that God showers us with actually stare us in the face each and every day…and too often we take them for granted……we trivialize them……we consider them to be rights rather than blessings……until they are gone. One of God’s greatest creations is people and He blesses us with them abundantly! Take a moment to think of some of your favorite memories…almost every one of them involve people. I love that old song that says… “Count your blessings, name them one, by one…”, did you get that…… “name them one, by one…”?!? Who’s name would you call a blessing? Do you realize how blessed you really are? I know that I can say with confident assurance I know full well how blessed I am. I pray that you will take time to look at your life with fresh eyes today. Don’t wait until your blessings are gone……realize them now! General Merchandise - Cherryville, Pa. written on the truck. Preston worked a lot of hours at the general store. He didn't have hobbies; his life was running the store. Most days, his day would start at 6 a.m. and end about 7 or 8 p.m., Monday to Saturday. His wife, Annie, sewed and quilted. On Sundays, he and his wife would sometimes take a drive. His grandson, Bob, remembered going with his grandparents on December 7, 1941, in a black four-door Buick which Preston bought on December 6, and while riding, listened to the radio and heard about the Japanese bombing the American naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. It was the first car he had with a radio in it. They attended some Hess Reunions at Indian Trail Park and they both spoke Dutch.

Preston was president of Nazareth Mutual Farmers Insurance which doesn't exist anymore. When he retired at the age of 69, he told them he didn't want to be president anymore. They tried to persuade him to come back and they made him chairman emeritus for the rest of his life. He served as a director in the company for 33 years. Preston and Annie lived right alongside and to the left of the post office. There was a bedroom on the second floor corner. Their home and store kind of intermingled and overlapped. When Preston retired in 1949, they moved across the street to the little white house next to the Lehigh Township Fire Company. He and his wife attended the church in Indianland when they lived in Cherryville. Continued on page 14

EARLY NOTICE AND PUBLIC REVIEW OF A PROPOSED ACTIVITY IN A 100-YEAR FLOODPLAIN Date of Publication: September 26, 2013 To: All Interested Agencies, Groups, & Individuals This is to give notice that Northampton County has conducted an evaluation as required by Executive Order 11988 for floodplain management, in accordance with HUD regulations at 24 CFR 55.20 Subpart C Procedures for Making Determinations on Floodplain Management, to determine the potential affect that its activity in the floodplain and/or wetland will have on the human environment for Community Development Block Grant under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (PL 93-383). The proposed project is the reconstruction of Creek Road, a 1300 LF long by 30 LF wide roadway of which 2,800 SF crosses the Monocacy Creek and the 100 year floodplain, in the Borough of Bath Northampton County, Pennsylvania. There are three primary purposes for this notice. First, people who may be affected by activities in floodplains and those who have an interest in the protection of the natural environment should be given an opportunity to express their concerns and provide information about these areas. Second, an adequate public notice program can be an important public educational tool. The dissemination of information about floodplains can facilitate and enhance Federal efforts to reduce the risks associated with the occupancy and modification of these special areas. Third, as a matter of fairness, when the Federal government determines it will participate in actions taking place in floodplains it must inform those who may be put at greater or continued risk. Written comments must be received by Northampton County at the following address on or before October 13, 2013: SSM Group, Inc., County CDBG Consultant, 2005 City Line Avenue, Suite 300, Bethlehem PA 18017 (610) 849-9700 Attention: Tina Roseberry. Comments may also be submitted or further information can be requested via email at tina.roseberry@ssmgroup.com. A full description of the project may also be reviewed from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM Monday – Friday at the above address. Responsible Entity: Northampton County, The Honorable John Stoffa (9/26)

After Preston retired, he would still watch the activities at the store. He was a very active person and would clean the basement each week. He drove until he was 85 years old and then one day, he took his driver's license and wrote a letter to the Department of Transportation in Harrisburg to tell them that he was returning his driver's license and giving up driving because his wife wouldn't tell him what color the stoplight was. He received a reply from the department thanking him for being conscientious. Preston passed away in 1975 and is buried in the Union Cemetery in Slatington, along with many of his family members. His wife, Annie, passed away in 1978. As you can see, Preston Oscar Hess led an interesting life and wore many different hats in his lifetime and he seemed to be capable of doing all of the work involved. His name has long been remembered and will continue to be remembered in Lehigh Township.

Broad St., Nazareth presents the annual St. John’s Sacred Voices Concert on Sunday, September 29 at 4:00 p.m. The concert includes unique settings of many beloved psalm texts by early composers such as Goudimel, Viadana, Heinrich Schuetz, and more recent representative arrangements by Cesar Franck, Hovaness, Courtney, Hayes and Forrest. The high point of the concert is “De Profundis” by Russell Robinson, “Out of the depths have I cried to thee, O Lord!”, which had its premiere at Lincoln Center in 2012. It will be accompanied by string

quintet, oboe, trumpet and percussion. Susan L. Frickert, Director of Music at St. John’s since 1999 and Founding Director of the ecumenical St. John’s Sacred Voices since 2002, will direct the forty-five voice choir. During the summer months while many community choirs are on hiatus, the Sacred Voice singers travel from surrounding communities spanning five counties to prepare for this annual fall concert. Tickets are available through the church office (610.759.0893) or at the door the afternoon of the concert. For more information check out the church website: www. sjuccnaz.org.
