    What do a baby lamb, an odd-shaped vase, a Nancy Drewbook and a antique dress havein common?

    If you guessed that they are allitems that have been purchasedat previous Back MountainMemorial Library Auctionsyou are correct.

    Many patrons have respond-ed to our informal survey andhave reported that just aboutanything can be found at theAuction. Although most peoplewanted to remain anonymousabout their previous purchases,a few brave shoppers werewilling to share their stories.

    Lucy Messersmith, of Dallas,tells the story of her fathers sur-prise auction win back in the1960s when livestock animalswere the highlight of auctionfun. Lucys father was the lucky

    h igh bidder of a baby l amb,and that night was definitelyan unforgettable one for Lucysfamily.

    Although ourhome on MainS tre et wa s c er-tainly no place forLibby the Lambwe were so excit-ed, Lucy remem-

    bers.The lamb , how-ever, w as not ash ap py about i tsne w ho me a nd ,u nl es s Lu cy o rone of her sisterswould sleep out-s ide near i t on achaise lounge chair, it wouldbaa all night long.

    After about one month of thisnightly serenade, the lamb thenfound another new home on afriends farm.

    An anony mous p ast auc-tion attendee tells the story ofher find at an auction manyyears ago, that she attended asa young girl with her mother.

    They spie d a uniq ue vase foronly 25 cents and proudly car-ried their new centerpiece withthem throughout the auction

    grounds. Thoughonly a young girl,s he re me mb ersp eopl e p oi ntinga nd l au gh in g a ther purchase. Butit wasnt until they

    returned home andplaced their newvase on the kitch-en table that shelearned the mean-ing of the phraseBeauty is in theeye of the behold-er.

    Her fathers remark, Why onearth did you buy a hospital uri-nal? is one she will never for-get.

    Laura Hadsall, the newestemployee of the library, remem-bers her find of a Nancy Drewbook about 15 years ago.

    I was sorting through a boxof books under a table in theBook Tent, when three brightly-

    colored Nancy Drew books inthe old-style dust jackets caughtmy eye. Laura tells how shegrabbed the books for $3 and

    also found a fourth book with nodust jacket for only $2. Whenshe returned home, she wasthrilled to find it was a rare firstedition of the very first volumein the series, The Secret of theOld Clock. Even without the

    original dust jacket, its value isapproximately $450. Not a badreturn for a little digging at theauction!

    Bette Gillespie was happy toshare her memory of a beauti-ful antique dress she bid on at apast auction. However, anotherwoman placed a higher bid andwon the dress. The next dayBette received a phone call fromthe woman, offering the dress toher at Bettes bidding price.

    I wore the dress to a NewYears Party and still have it!she proudly exclaims.

    Other favorite items includeda bicycle that the new ownerproudly rode home from theauction, all the way from Dallas

    to Wi lk es-B ar re, a chest of drawers for only $12, a ridi-

    Susan BettngerDallas PostCorrespondent

    Back Mountain Regionalrepresentative Chief HarryVivian discussed the Smart911service at the July 2 supervi-sors meeting.

    The Luzerne Count y serv iceis free and secure. Residentscreate a safety profile wherethey enter vital medical infor-mation on the Smart911.comwebsite. The information willbe immediately displayed toemergency responders in caseswhere the caller is unable torespond to questions regard-ing medications and medical

    conditions.The profile will also give

    immediate information on anyresidents or pets that may betrapped in a home in the eventof a fire. Another feature ofthe service is that it showsphotos and gives descriptionsof children in cases of missingor runaway children.

    The se rvice i s used by policedepartments, fire departmentsand ambulances and saves timein emergency situations. It is100 percent private and secureand can be used in partnershipwith other counties throughoutthe United States who utilizethe Smart911 service.

    In other business :

    The board of supervi sors

    is moving forward with plansto purchase a 2012 BobcatSkid Steer for $43,187.36from Costars. The vehiclehas a universal front end fordifferent attachments, includ-ing an asphalt grinder whichwill need to be rented on amonthly basis. The cost ofthe vehicle falls within thebudget of $50,000 allotted forthe purchase. The supervisorswere scheduled to take formalaction on the matter at the endof the week.

    There was a discussionregarding a track of vacant

    land given to the Kunkle FireDepartment which should have

    been put on the tax exemptrolls but wasnt. Supervisorshave agreed to accept servicefrom the fire department inorder for it to claim tax exemptstatus. Solicitor Tom Brennansaid the board will look intomaking the service agreementretroactive for the 2011 and2012 tax years, giving the firedepartment tax exempt statusbeginning with the 2011 taxyear and moving forward.

    Also up for discussion wasthe requirement for the town-ship to provide an impound lotfor towed vehicles. Chairman

    Frank Wagner suggested alocation that is already par-

    tially fenced and has roomfor three to four vehicles.The entire lot would need tobe fenced and given approvalprior to being used.

    Engineer Tom Doughtonand the supervisors discussedthe proposed 2013 OCD proj-ect - a foot bridge near theKunkle Fire Station. Doughtonstated the DEP permit for theproject was submitted earlierin the day and added he thinksthe bridge will cost less thanthe $40,000 budgeted for it.

    The bridge will likely be fiveor six feet wide, accessible

    for 2-way traffic, as well as forhandicapped citizens scoot-

    ers. There was concern that,because the bridge is exces-sively wide, residents wouluse the bridge for quads anATVs.

    The prev io usl y sch ed ulepublic hearing to considerand solicit public input ancomment on a proposed ordi-nance to amend th e tow n-ships Subdivision and LanDevelopment Ordinance hasbeen re-scheduled for 6:30p.m. on Tuesday, July 16,and will be followed by thboard of supervisors meet-ing at 7 p.m.

    Supervisors learn about Smart911 service

    Theyre intoold-fashionedtweeting
