Shooting in the New Year was common in rural Pennsylvania

It’s easy to imagine the scene early New Year’s Day in 1806 as a group of young revelers from the Morgantown area walked home after a night out. They had been making the rounds, “shooting in the new year,” according to a brief item in the Jan. 4, 1806,  Reading Weekly Advertiser, as reprinted by the Reading Times, Jan. 12, 1872. No doubt they drank a good deal of alcohol as they made their way from farm to farm, waking families with blasts of black powder from muzzle-loaded shotguns, wishing them well in the new year and demanding food and drink. - Advertisement -

Kutztown Historical Society installs bi-lingual signs at historical sites

The sign at the 1892 building reads: The Public School Building from 1892 is one of the best examples of Victorian school architecture that is still remaining in the Northeast United States. It cost $17,600 to build, with money that was given by people from the region, and was used until 1977. On the 23rd of February in the year 1979, the Kutztown Area Historical Society purchased the school to establish a museum dedicated to the history of the East Penn Valley. In July of 1980, the school was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Submitted photo
