Editor's Mail Bag A STATEMENT OF ISSUE Dear Editor: I would like to take this opportunity to tell the good citizens of this area where I stand. I am not in favor of any increase in taxes. We have been taxed plenty. By wise planning and proper management we should be able to return Ito each county more money from the state collected taxes, anti lower the taxes a man must pay on his home. I have been active in conservation all my adult life and believe we are capable of making our state a leader in outdoor recreation. By stopping the polution of our lakes and streams, we and our children can once again enjoy the healthful pleasure of catching fish from clean pure water. 1 would like to press hard for better and safe highways. The gasoline tax is ample, but. as the dollars in gasoline tax have increased, the roads have not improved. I should expect to do whatever is possible to pass laws that will aid our

Stan Wuthrich, Dave Beer and coach Bill Dorsey. In the front row are Jerry Me Clintic, Ted Speicher. Ned Speicher, Tom Gunden and Garry Hurd.

By JERI SEELY AEB received a thank you note in last week's mail from Donna Davidsen, the pretty daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Don Davidsen of r 2 Milford. Donna was Milford's winner in the M-J sponsored essay contest. Her note read as follows: "Thank you very much for the $lO I received for winning the M-J essay contest. I plan to put this money toward my college education.” ♦ ♦ • What's this we hear about Noble Holderread going to Hawaii for his vacation? Must remember to ask him about it when he returns. • • • A little excitement was in the air Saturday evening as the Halloween parade was set for 6 p.m. and the Youth Center dance at-8. The big question was whether or not the parade would be over before the dance was to start! Everything went off smooth and the parade completed, prizes awarded and the gym cleared by 7:50. That just goes to [rove organizations in our town can work together. Our congratulations to Darle C. Hoover. Jr., who won the grand prize at the parade and Andy Brown who won the most original. Young Darle was a robot complete with red blinking and a beep, beep noise. Andy was dressed as Charlie Chaplain. • • • I always enjoy trick or treaters and keep a count to see how many call at our house. This year we had 55 on Friday and three or four Saturday after the parade. We join with the other residents in Milford in thanking the youth of this city who soaped windows around town. I wonder how they knew my windows were dirty and needed washing. Really didn’t mind it Saturday morning, but didn’t want to w’ash them again on Sunday! * ♦ ♦ The United Fund drive is almost completed with donations below normal. Anyone who has not contributed but would like to should send his check to the M-J office or direct to the United Fund office at Warsaw. ♦ » • More fun! They are having a ball at the post office since Ed Huber changed the door. Where you used to push you now ! pull and where you used to pull you now push. People can’t seem to read the signs on the door and they don’t jget too far on that first try. Someone thought it would be a good idea for Candid Camera. • • • A certain person stated Monday that it is on the quiet side at the Methodist church parsonage his week. Mrs. Sumner can’t talk.
