30th Annual Uptown Northampton Street Fair the largest ever
by KERI LINDENMUTH An annual Northampton tradition returned to the borough, bigger and better than ever before. The 30th Annual Uptown Northampton Street Fair featured more vendors, more food, and more music for families to enjoy. The event is hosted by the
Northampton Area Chamber of Commerce of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce. “We could not be happier with the turnout,” said Tony Pristash, president of the Northampton Area Chamber of Commerce. “We are extremely grateful for the outpouring of [community]
support. People come from all over.” Hundreds of visitors crowded Main Street and visited the tents, stages, and food trucks stretching from 21st and Main to the Gin Mill and Grill four blocks away. Over 117 vendors sold artisan crafts such as jewelry, fused
glass, wooden birdhouses, and handmade soaps. Meanwhile, local businesses and organizations were distributing information, handing out fun freebies, and hosting sidewalk sales. Food trucks, including Bob-BQ, Geaker’s Tacos, Josie’s Fancy Funnels, and Cinnamini Donuts,
were serving sweet and savory favorites. Beer and wine were also being served. Visitors could enjoy their beverages or snack on funnel cakes while enjoying a number of bands perform on two separate stages at either end of the fair. Continued on page 10
Looking by Inhabited recreational vehicle Causes headache for Back Ed Pany The village of Treichlers
One of our loyal readers recently asked me about the history of Treichlers. I refreshed my memory by dusting off a 1920 volume of “History of Northampton County.” So here is a brief look at the cozy village. The village takes its name from Henry Treichler, who owned and operated a gristmill there. The mill dated back to 1794. The most famous owners of the mill
were Jacob Mauser and his family. They operated the mill from 1885 to 1967. Mauser also had a mill in Laurys Station and on Canal Street in Northampton. The firm was recognized for Mauser’s Best Flour, a staple on the shelves of many former neighborhood stores. Both the Laurys mill and Northampton mill were deContinued on page 3
Park Ridge residents
By KERI LINDENMUTH Residents living on and around Park Ridge Drive in Bath appeared before borough council during council’s monthly meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 4 to voice concerns about an out-of-state, inhabited recreational vehicle that had been parked on their street for over three weeks. Now, residents are asking council to pursue a possible ordinance that would prohibit the parking and inhabitation of RVs on borough streets.
Two adults, a cat, and a dog lived in this recreational vehicle from August 3 until August 26, residents said. The recreational vehicle was licensed out of Florida. Furniture and other belongings littered the side of the street, blocking the right of way and even the sidewalks. The individuals, residents said, brushed their teeth outside and used the portable toilets at nearby Carl L. Rehrig Park. The individuals were guests of a family on the street, but they
were guests residents said overstayed their welcome. Residents told council of the variety of paths they pursued to move the recreational vehicle from their neighborhood. They Continued on page 5

Moore Township Land Preservation Board Discusses details of park projects Township Land Preservation ing Schiavone Park at this board discussed details regard- month’s meeting. This piece of property located at 797 Bushkill Road, Bath was purchased by Moore Township from a man by the name of Dr. Schiavone, to ensure that it be protected from any possible plans of development.

stroyed by fire. The flagship mill in Treichlers was last owned by Conagra. The landmark mill closed a few years ago, and the milling era ended in the village. The village was known for many fine residences; many are still in Treichlers. Homes were owned by G.B. Mauser, H.J. Lerch, W.W. Kuntz and J.J. Moyer. The present owners of the Kuntz home are friends of mine, Bob and Nan Mentzell. Bob was an excellent social studies teacher at Northampton High School and serves on the Northampton School Board. The Kuntz family established the first mill there. Jacob Kuntz was born in what is present-day Germany in 1692. His son Frederick was a captain during the Revolutionary War. The village was named Kuntzford at that time. In 1920, the village had two stores operated by Henry Frederick and Irvin Newhard. Our
Mauser Mill
older readers may recall when his son Elvin satisfied many a taste bud when he founded Newhard Foods in Coplay. His first popular offering was delicious crabcakes. Dale was the former highly respected superintendent of the Allentown State Hospital. Beyond the village was a beautiful farm owned by the famous silk magnet D.G. Dery. The old Gourmet Inn and former seminary properties were owned by Dery. Many of our readers may
be familiar with the old Dery mansion in Catasauqua. The village also was a railroad stop for the Central New Jersey Railroad. A post office continues to serve the needs of the residents. If you want more information, the Lehigh Township Historical Society published a fine book on Lehigh Township history in 2002. See you in two weeks when we explore the village of Kreidersville.

Can you even believe the technological world we find ourselves in today? The advancements in a mere thirty some odd years are almost fantastical to say the least. These ‘smart phones’ are such powerful mini-computers and virtually every person has them for everyday use. Incredible. Consider that for better or worse we also find ourselves on the brink of artificial intelligence. It’s all moving so fast and is getting more high tech every day. I recently visited my chiropractor, my mentor, my friend, Dr. Joseph Napoli who just turned 90 years old. We had such a nice time and the conversation, as you can well imagine, was all about chiropractic. It was just great. Quite frankly, I did most of the listening as Dr. Napoli spoke so passionately about the gift of life. He spoke about the undeniable fact that we are indwelled with an innate intelligence that coordinates and direct every single operation in the human body.

This innate intelligence sole purpose is to work on our behalf to bring forth health, well-being and balance. From the moment of conception this intelligence is always for us and never ever against us. Even in a dis-eased state of being our innate intelligence keeps pressing forward to help, to heal. The desire of the innate is always positive and optimistic. It has been ordained as such. While looking me straight in the eyes Dr. Napoli, told me in no uncertain terms, “The human body is the greatest factory on earth.” Think about that for a minute. Your body and all the vast physiological functions taking place this very moment makes even our most advanced technology look beyond primitive.

Helping for 20 years awe of that fact. Instead, we oftentimes tend to minimize the awesomeness of our own creation. Realize here and now, that healing comes from within. Not from a pill. Ladies and gentleman, as you read through this week’s article have you even been aware of how often your eyes has blinked lubricating the eyes? Or how many life-giving breaths you have taken or miraculous heart beats that have occurred? And that’s just for starters. Gallbladder function, immune defense, nerve impulses that course freely-wow. I for one am so glad that there is something greater than the logical thinking ‘me’ that runs the show deep inside. I wouldn’t know the first place to start; would you? Of course not. The greatest factory on earth is selfperpetuating-always-everyday-all the time. You just need to sit back and enjoy the ride as best able. As far as I can tell each and every one of us is such a beautiful spirit living in these beautiful bodies, albeit temporarily. So many mysteries do surround life. I cannot speak to that at this time yet I will stand and profess that you are the greatest factory of earth…hands down and not for debate.

Park Ridge Northampton Rental Continued from page 1 Inspection Ordinance called Tuskes Homes and were ignored. They approached borPassed after residents ough officials, but an inspected, vehicle is legally allowed Share rental ‘horror stories’ licensed to be parked on public streets. FiBy KERI LINDENMUTH Caving in roofs, cockroaches in refrigerators, and a tattoo parlor renting rooms for $100 a week. These were just some of the stories Northampton residents brought to Borough Council’s attention during council’s monthly workshop meeting on Thursday, Sept. 6. Several residents appeared before council during the meeting. While their stories of rental properties in their neighborhoods differed, all agreed on one thing: landlords need to be held responsible for their dilapidated properties. Such a situation may be soon be a reality. Following these public comments, council passed their longdebated rental ordinance in a 6-2 vote. This ordinance will require landlords to pay fees to register their rental properties and have them inspected regularly. One borough resident of E. 10th Street shared stories of the rental property next to her family’s home, where they have lived for well over a decade. Since her family has lived in this property, three different tenants have moved in and out next door. She recounted drug paraphernalia like needles in the driveway and a rental property so dirty that cockroaches found their way into her home. They are in her fridge and her oven. They even crawl across her children’s beds at night, she told council members, nearly in tears. She is paying over one hundred dollars a month for exterminators. “We cannot put our home up for sale,” she said. “The town was not [always] like this.” She said she has had to call Keystone Property Management, which owns the property, multiple times. Keystone and the property’s landlord, she said, were so uncooperative she had to call the borough. “[We] should not have to call the borough to get them to do
work,” she said. Other residents also voiced their frustration with the quality of rental properties in the borough. “People are not buying homes in the borough,” one resident said, due to the quality of surrounding rentals. She recalled being laughed at for reporting issues with drugs in a nearby rental. She also alleged that borough police threatened her with a subpoena when she made a complaint about a nearby property. While some residents shared stories, other shared pictures. Kathy Novograwtz presented pictures of dilapidated rental properties in the borough. Photographs showed siding in disrepair, dumpsters without permits, fallen trees, caved in roofs, damaged outbuildings, and even a borough tattoo parlor she described as a “flop house.” The parlor rents rooms for $100 a week, she told council. The parlor’s owner hung up on her, she said, when she called about the rooms. Mayor Thomas Reenock, who has spoken against the ordinance and previously vetoed it, thanked residents for speaking up. “If you people do not come here and complain [nothing will happen],” he said. “Do this every meeting. Maybe they will start doing something.” Following residents’ public comments, council voted in favor of the ordinance with a lack of the debate that had previously marked past meetings. Only Councilmen Tony Pristash and Ed Pany voted against the ordinance. “[I am] thankful to God that it passed,” said Councilwoman Judy Kutzler, a proponent of the ordinance. Kutzler applauded the residents who took the time to speak up and share their stories. “They did their due diligence.”

However, residents made it clear that they do not want to cause any ill feelings with their neighbors involved. “We have to continue living as neighbors with those people,” said Phil West, another resident. This is not the first issue residents had with these homeowners. Dozens of cats currently inhabit the property, they said, leading to “intolerable” odors, empty litter boxes and food cans, and an

GAB OVER by Pete THE FENCE G. Ossip Tuesday, September 11 was Patriot Day, marking the anniversary of one of America’s deadliest days when three civilian airliners were used by terrorists to kill more than 3,000 innocent people on a sunny morning in the year 2001. They died in twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., and at a field in Shanksville, Pa., after people aboard Flight 93 tried to stop them and the plane crashed. The tragedy carries on as first responders from the New York incident are dying of cancer now from all the smoke in the aftermath as they cleaned up the debris and bodies that fell. Let us pray that we never go through something like that again. . . . It’s a lot cooler now as we approach the fall season. Oh what a relief it is, after the sweltering days of summer. Even a week ago, some schools in Philly cut short their classes because of the heat and not enough air conditioning. Of course, we’re still getting rain, and that’s a drag. . . . .I see in the George Wolf Historical Society newsletter that Tavern Night will be held this Friday, September 14. They’re having them on the second Friday of the month from September to April, except December. Right now they’re raising funds for outdoor lighting so that you don’t stumble when walking around at the Wolf Academy and Ralston-McKeen House at night. They’re even gonna have some blues bands for entertainment, and a Governor Wolf re-enactor (not the real one today) will make an appearance. Seems he liked to visit the taverns in the 1800’s. . . . Linda Kortz did some nice work for the historical society with a museum display at the Bath Borough Hall. Now she’s gonna put something in about the Home News. If anybody has collected copies of the paper over the last 77 years, how about giving her a
call. . . .Hate to say it, but it looks like the Phillies are really done for the season. They lost games over the weekend, and the hot Atlanta Braves rallied in the late innings and knocked off the Arizona Diamondbacks. That game on Sunday really socked it to ‘em – first Freddie Freeman knocking in a run in the 8th and then six runs in the 9th. Wow!!! Cubs and Nationals were frustrated with all the rain, but the Phillies and Mets just played through it. Enough, I say! . . .. . . .Local golfers were seen playing in the rain at Southmoore on Sunday. Let’s hope it’s nice for the Cougar Classic the Catholic school is having there this Friday. . . . One thing about the rain and heat. It made the corn grow so nice over at Seiple’s Farm that they were able to cut a maze for the Lehigh Valley International Airport that is a beautiful view from the air – three and a half miles of maze through the corn. Terrific! . . . .The indoor sports like bowling and dart baseball around here have started their seasons. . . . Penn State ripped the University of Pittsburgh in their football game on Saturday. And the Philly Eagles won pretty easily vs. Atlanta’s Falcons on Thursday in pro football, and now they get back on to a Sunday schedule . Saquon Barkley of Whitehall did okay with the New York Giants, but they lost. . . .Good luck with your Horner Cemetery Historical Society 10th anniversary on the 22nd, Peggy Moser. Your group has done a fine job of taking care of that proud grounds from the Colonial Days of the Scots-Irish Settlement. It’s local history in America. . . .Gotta go. Fall house cleaning time.

submitted by TRACY POLOVICK Rep. Zach Mako (R-Lehigh/ Northampton) announced on Tuesday the release of $1 million in state funds to Lehigh Township to construct a new public works facility. Mako advocated for the funding through the state’s Redevelopment Assistance Capital Project (RACP) program. “Lehigh Township’s current maintenance facility was built in 1958,” Mako said. “For almost two decades, discussion has occurred about replacing this aging facility, which has served the township well for 60 years. I’m pleased to be able to assist with funding this necessity for proper operation of the township.” The new building will be located on the current municipal complex. The exact specifications and amenities are still being worked out. Funding for the project was authorized by lawmakers in the Capital Budget Project Itemization Act. Mako thanked the governor for his assistance in securing additional funding for this vital municipal project. The 183rd District includes South Whitehall (part), Washington and Whitehall (part) townships and Slatington Borough in Lehigh County. It also consists of Allen, Lehigh and Moore (part) townships, and North Catasauqua, Northampton and Walnutport boroughs in Northampton County.

Long lines at Geaker's Tacos to take a peek behind the historic theater’s silver screen. They could explore backstage, wander the downstairs dressing rooms, and learn fascinating facts about the theater from owner Richard Wolfe. “We are thankful for the sponsors, Northampton County, the business community, and the borough council for their support,” said Pristash. He says the Chamber is already planning next year’s event, which
he anticipates will be even larger. “We are always looking for ways to make this more success-

Spirit Led?
The Bible says, “For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God” (Romans 8:14). His children who are “born of the Spirit” (John 3:8) are to be exclusively led by the Holy Spirit for “The things of God” are only known by “the Spirit of God” (1 Corinthians 2:11). Jesus called Him, “the Spirit of truth” and emphasized, “he will guide you into all truth” (John 16:13). But, Satan also leads! His evil spirits are working overtime to deceive and lead people away from God and into the very paths to hell! His “channelers” offer supernatural help through “spirit guides” that are, in fact, demon spirits! These purveyors of psychic advice may be considered celebrities by some, but their activity is forbidden and condemned by God, “There shall not be found among you any one that...useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD” (Deuteronomy 18:10-12). God severely deals with those who seek direction from evil spirits. He warns, “The soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people” (Leviticus 20:6). Those who turn to occult amusements find themselves subjected to forces which gradually assume control over them. They actually open the door to sinister spirits whose ultimate goal is to drag their prey with them to hell! If you have dabbled with the occult, I urge you to turn from Satan to Christ now! Ask Jesus to forgive you of your sins and to deliver you from the power of Satan. “Submit…to God. Resist the devil” (James 4:7). Seek to be led by the Word and Spirit of God. I invite you to attend any of our services.

Simpson scale. According to the Hurricane Center, Hurricane Florence is expected to produce a total of 15 to 20 inches of rainfall in areas and possibly more, up to 30 inches in isolated locations along the storm’s path. If Florence stalls and moves at a slow rate, some areas could see record storm rainfalls, like Georgia, Tennessee, West Virginia, even Pennsylvania and Ohio. The hurricane center has warned of life threatening flash flooding. More than 1 million residents and tourists are expected to flee South Carolina. Hurricane Florence has the most rapid hurricane intensification since Hurricane Humberto in 2007 (said Colorado State University meteorologist Phil Klotzbach), as Florence changed from a Category 1 (90 mph) to a Category 4 (130 mph) storm in a mere 13 hours. At time of print, Florence’s track had been slightly revised, forecasted to make landfall in North Carolina where it could either drift north or south from there. Catastrophic damage is expected to occur.

Jenn and Jim Chandler
‘Saving Faith’ to Premiere at Wind Gap Park submitted by MIKE NETZNIK
You are invited to the Wind Gap Park on Saturday, Sept. 22 at 5 p.m. to not only meet and share with actors Jenn Gotzon Chandler and Jim Chandler, but to see one of their movies, “Saving Faith.” Who is Jenn Gotzon Chandler? Award-winning actress Jenn Gotzon Chandler made a niche playing historical and real-life characters as seen in this year’s “My Daddy is in Heaven.” Her breakout role was as President
Nixon’s daughter, Tricia Nixon, directed by Ron Howard in Frost/Nixon, and Alone Yet Not Alone, a novel-turned-movie, credits her in films with six Academy Award nominations. Gotzon Chandler loves playing the protagonist who transforms from brokenness to wholeness through the story. Her mission is to impact and inspire audiences through the art of storytelling on film. She stars in many family movies available on Amazon including top-grossing faith-based comedy Love Different and the following for which she won awards for her performances: Doonby, God’s Country, Julie And Jack, The Sacred Eternal, The Good Book and Unbridled. She strives to be a role model mentoring teens and as a public speaker. She often plays the love interest opposite of her real life husband Jim E. Chandler as seen in Saving Faith, Sinking Sand And The Farmer and The Belle: Saving Santaland, her debut as a producer providing a pathway to true beauty based on psychology and Christian values.
