Things are slowly going in the right direction 👍👍

Hoping to help local businesses and bring tourism into the borough, the Minersville Borough Council is considering adopting an ordinance that would allow all-terrain vehicles on some streets.

These are some of the kids that separated the coal from the culm that was hauled up and dumped to create the hill climbs that are here today.

“Boy Life in the Coal Mines.” - July 1902

This following excerpt appeared in the Philadelphia Times newspaper during the Great Strike of 1902 in the anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania.

It describes the plight of the “breaker boys,” the children who were employed to separate coal from slate and rock at region’s collieries.

“The boys sit on little wooden seats across the chutes [in the breaker], their legs in the moving coal, ready to stay the slide when the slate is thick, or to kick the coal along when it is clean and moving slowly.

The rollers grind ceaselessly, with a roar which shakes the structure. To this is added the crunch of the crushers and the steady shuffle of the many streams of coal down the iron chutes. The black dust rises in clouds and hangs thickly about the boys.

From 7 o’clock in the morning till 4 or 5 in the afternoon, with an hour for luncheon, the breaker boy works in the midst of this coal dust and coal.

Children of the mine are they, born in the shadow of the culm heaps with the roar of the breakers ever in their ears, with mines beneath their feet. The waters of the creeks they know are black with culm dirt, or red with sulphur from the mines; the streets they tramp are black with the soft culm; the fields they play in are pock-marked with cave holes, and bare of all save course grass and weeds; the air they breathe has the smell of the mine in it; the house where they sleep are red or unpainted, in dingy rows along a dingy street.

Their whole life is lived with the mine…”
