Downtown Harvest Festival
There was
something for everyone at the Harvest Festival on Main Street Oct. 5. Children
had their faces painted, adults could get a massage or throw an axe at a target
15 feet away, many visitors shopped for drinks, hand-crafted metal jewelry,
framed paintings, and treats for their dogs. Photo: Jennifer Metcalf,

United States Representative Susan Wild, of Pennsylvania’s Seventh
District, met generally friendly constituents in a town hall session Oct. 2 at
Muhlenberg College’s Seegers Union Hall. “I’m always happy to see young people involved
in the political process,” said Wild, as she looked out at many younger

Football-Freedom tops Emmaus
When a quarterback plays nearly
flawless football, the chances of that team winning are exceedingly high. When
your quarterback sets single game records, well, you know how this will end. Jared
Jenkins put on a passing clinic in Freedom’s 63-28 mercy-rule win over Emmaus
last week and it was a night to remember for the senior signal caller.

Anyone
who loves the television shows, “Downton Abbey” (and now the movie) and “The
Crown,” or follows the British Royal Family, won’t want to miss the American

Abbey. The 3 p.m. Oct. 26 event, the
