The Governor Wolf Historical Society, East Allen Township, has two events of interest coming up this fall. On Oct. 8, at the society’s regular monthly meeting, Steve Hilberg will present a display and talk on early types of lighting, from colonial times to the invention of the electric light bulb. Members and guests are encouraged to bring any unique or unusual types of lighting from their collections. This talk, held in the Monocacy School on the society campus, is free and open to the public. On Dec. 7, the society will hold its 33rd annual Christmas house tour, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., featuring six homes of historical interest, beautifully decorated for the holidays by local florists. As always, there will also be a craft display and sale, as well as refreshments, on the society’s campus during the tour.
