Lehman Township Supervisors
reviewed problem solving recom-
mendations from the Pennsylvania
Department of Transportation con-
cerning a bottleneck traffic problem
on Route 118 at their regular
monthly meeting on Monday.
The board discussed the installa-
tion of two overhead mast arms
with 24 hour flashing warning lights
in the intersection near the Lake-
Lehman Junior High School.
As an alternate plan, the board
discussed suggestions of installing
an overhead signal to be used
during hours when congestion is
greatest, suchas school bus dropoff
and pick up times, and lurich and
recess periods.
According to Alvin Cragle, the
township is now utilizing the serv-
ices of a township policeman to
control traffic at the intersection.
The board is also planning a meet-
ing with the Lake-Lehman School
Board to discuss the feasibility of
sharing cost of maintenance and
operation of the signal.
Charles Bartlet, spokesman for
the Oak Hill Sewer Project, told the
board that the Chester Engineers
have forwarded specifications for
their project to the Department of
Environmental Resources for
approval before they are sent to the
Environmental Protection Agency
for review.
The financial package for the Oak
Hill Sewer Project, including cost to
taxpayers, has not yet been com-
pleted. Ground-breaking ceremonies
for the project have been tentatively
set for April 15 at 3 p.m. at the No. 2
pumping station. Construction will
by 1988, the system will be on line.
The board also appointed an Agri-
cultural Advisory Committee for the
Agricultural Security Act proposal.
The proposal was given to:the town-
ship solicitor for his ‘review to
insure it complies with rules and
regulations of the act. The commit-
tee is planning to advertise a public
meeting on the proposal. Those
appointed to the committee are
James Cook, William Dawe, Doug-
las Ide, chairperson; Glen Johnson
and Mike Wojieciewicz.
In other business, it was reported
that the township’s General Reve-
nue Sharing Fund will be reduced to

State Sen. Charles D. Lemmond
Jr. has shown in the past his ability
to efficiently perform in several
capacities.
And, last week the former district
attorney-turned judge-turned politi-
cian, demonstrated his versatility
once again when he was chosen to
be the guest speaker at the Dallas
Baptist Church, Rt. 415 on the
Dallas-Harvey’s Lake highway.
Lemmond was on hand to help the
Back Mountain congregation kick
off an emphasis entitled, ‘‘Good
News America! God Loves You.”
The event was part of an effort by
Southern Baptists across the nation,
encompassing 30,000 churches in all
50 states.
The theme of the two month drive
is to let people know there are
solutions to difficulties we all face.
In particular, Lemmond, who
pastor David R. Penley said church
members described as a “man of
God,” spoke of the Christians role in
changing the direction of America.
“The first thing we must do
before we can change anything is to
renew confidence in ourselves,’”’
Lemmond said. “We must also find
renewal in our leaders, institutions
and government. This country has
withstood wars, assassinations,
recession, inflation, abuse and cor-
ruption and it is still the most stable
nation in the world.”
Lemmond quoted individuals from
the past who had expressed concern
over our country and the ways we
can help make it progress.
‘Norman Cousins once said,
‘what holds men back isn’t the
pressures of reality, but the absense
of dreams,’”’” Lemmond said. ‘Ideas
have consequences. And that
involves two things: belief and
behavior. When we change belief we
change behavior.”
In addition, the Dallas resident
talked about the low morality and
permissiveness that has now taken
over in the world, saying that
“moral values are so vital that we
can’t take time off from practicing
them.”
Joking about how people like to
hear politicians talk about things in
threes, Lemmond stressed the three
P’s of Christianity: pardon, power
and promise. The pardon of past
sins committed, the present to help
bring about renewal, and the prom-
ise of the future.
“We must develop a new atti-
tude,” Lemmond noted. ‘“We have
to concentrate on the positive things
and not the negative ones. There is
good news America. God does love
us. Now what are we going to do
about it?” .
THIS IS THE TIME OF YEAR
when we start looking for signs of
spring, geese flying north, crocus
popping up out of the cold ground,
and the first robin. Another sure
sign of warmer weather is when the
ice cream stands open for the
season. Since Mark II opened their
Twin Kiss last Friday, Spring must
be on the way.
