Brown and sons, Ronald and Philip, were Easter dinner guests of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Brown. A new lubrication room is being completed at the McFarren Service Station on road 15 this week. By the time The Mail is out they hope to have their new hoist in. place and working, according to Seth McFarren, manager of the station. Lehman Wemple and Ernest Bowman did the carpenter work on the job. 20 YEARS AGO, APRIL 21, 1949 The long anticipated Easter parade, the- first event of the season for a public display of new spring Outfits, definitely did not materialize in ?jfilTord last Sunday. Snow fell at intervals about the day. One feels safe in saying, however, that never on any previous Easter within memory have the church services in Milford been so well at-

tended. Every church in town reports an unusually fine attendance. The condition of Rodney Me Creary, who was seriously injured ten days ago, is greatly improved and it is believed his vision will be completely restored in one eye and at least partly in the other. Young McCreary and his father, John R. Me Creary, were dismantling a refrigerator at their home when the accident occurred. While Mr. McCreary was attempting to remove the motor from the refrigerator, a tube containing the refrigerant was punctured and sprayed directly into Rodney’s face. He was taken to the Goshen hosoital and is still there. The baccalaureate services fcr the Milford high .school graduating class will be held Sunday evening, May 15. Rev. Robert L. Bates, of the First Christian church, will be the speaker, but it is not yet decided where they will be held. The MHS student council voted to have the churches take turns in providing the minister. 40 YEARS AGO, APRKL 18, 1929 Mrs. William Cain is rapidly recovering from a major operation performed recently at Warsaw. Mrs. Simon Beer of of

Milford fractured her arm just above the wrist early Thursday evening as she fell while walking from her son’s home, which is located nearby, to her home. An X-ray picture was taken and the fracture reduced by Dr. Hursey. Jehu Beer and Leah Beer were married recently and will reside at their home on E. Catherine street which they purchased of Eugene Scarlett. They were married in Kentucky. Mr. Beer has been engaged in the manufacture of furniture and novelties in Milford for a number of years. Mrs. Jacob Hartter, who was taken ill about ten days ago with influenza, has been suffering greatly from the effects of it having settled in her ear and head. A number of similar cases have been reported in this community and it seems that several weeks are required in running its course in each case. The complications following this flu infection seems more severe than during the epidemic last winter. Mrs. Noble Neff assisted in teaching at the Milford school on Monday. UNITED TELEPHONE ANNOUNCES TWO STAFF CHANGES Announcement of two changes in the general office staff of United Telephone Company of Indiana, Inc., was made today by J. C. Cluen, president of the firm. L. Richaird Stoops, 39, current and John M. White, 42, current general traffic manager, sire scheduled to exchange positions Slay 6. Stoops will become general traffic manager but will continue to direct labor relations. White will assume the duties of secretary-treasurer but will also handle connecting company relations. -The duties of budget officer will be transferred to Marvin W. Becker, controller. • Cluen states that the exchange of positions between Stoops and White is in conjunction with United’s long-range plan to offer interdepartmen* al cross-training and experience to its employees. Rev. and Mrs. Albert O. Curtwright of Milford entertained their children, Mr. and Mrs. Billy Thomas and children of Belle- ' ville, 111., and Mr. and Mrs. Richard Grubaugh and son of Orland, over the Easter holidays.

PUBLIC SALE AT MAKEMSON FARM A public sale of household goods, garden tools and equipment will be held at 12 noon Saturday, April 26, at the Walter Makemson farm, NW of Pierceton. A very unusual and authentic group of antiques will also be offered for sale at the same time and location. The farm is located one mile south of Staley’s Hilltop Grocery, west on 200N, one-half mile west to 600E, and* then north to the first house. Makemson, a near-lifetime resident and native of this area, sold the farm recently and plans on selling the house. He and his wife reside in a home southwest of North Webster now, at what used to be called “Happy Corners”, on road 700. In a conversation with him, Makemson said he will keep busy, much as he has in the past. He spends a great deal of time on geneology. He is 80 years young and likes to tell of his grandfather, John Makemson, who built the first frame house in Pierceton.

Auctioneers for the sale are Jim Loetz and Phil Fidler. Rollin Christner is the clerk. Driver Examiner At Syracuse On Wednesdays The driver examiner.
