WSCS ENJOYS POT LUCK PICNIC The Women’s Society of Christian Service of the Milford United Methodist church met at the home of Mrs. Richard Felkner for a pot luck picnic on July 10. Although the day began with fog and gloom, by noon it was warm and sunny, adding to the enjoyment of the picnic. Dispensing with the business meeting, Mrs. Robert Brown, president, invited Rev. Ralph Karstedt to ask the blessing before the fifty persons attending enjoyed the delicious meal; After dinner Leah Stutzman and Linda Herr kept the preschoolers entertainod. The little ones hunted for lollipops in a pile of straw and played several games with balloons. David Brown led races and games for the older children. The society appreciated these three young people’s help so that the mothers could enjoy games, also. The ladies played a game of hidden messages from the Bible. The winners wondered if they were really so lucky as their “prize” was to begin a game of Biblical charades. (Much talent was discovered during this stunt.) Everyone then gathered in a circle to play a magic game of “scissors”. Mrs. Felkner then led the group in a sing-a-long of old familiar songs. Joining hands the group sang "Bless Be the Tie that Binds” to close a most enjoy-

The dream of having a personal “slice of the great outdoors” has become a reality for millions of Americans. More and more families are learning that the great outdoors isn’t limited to parks and lakes, forests ahd beaches. They are discovering the great outdoors right in their own backyards. Transforming a backyard into an enjoyable slice of the great outdoors is relatively simple. A personal mini-park can be developed easily, quickly and inexpensively — and can provide the ticket to “get away from it all” without ever leaving home. Versatility is the big “plus” for the entire family. The backyard complex can be a playground, a garden, a campsite, a swimming pool, and a perfect place to entertain. Camp Out in Backyard Properly equipped, the backyard provides the ideal spot to get the family ready for its annual vacation trip. Equipment can be assembled and tested before taking off for the mountains, the seashore, or the ripen road. And for the stay-at-home outdoor enthusiast, there’s nothing more convenient than a campout just outside the backdoor of the home. Any family with a backyard can develop outdoor facilities that will provide countless hours of diverse recreation. For the growing family, it can be a step-by-step development, making additions and changes over the years as the budget and time permit.
A look at the “spruced up” backyard shows a myriad of variations, starting with the patio which is standard on most homes built within the past 15 years. A coat of colorful rubberized paint can turn an otherwise dull concrete patio slab into an integral part of the home’s color scheme and make the patio more attractive than ever before. Freshly-painted patio furniture, color coordinated of course, adds to the beauty of a weekend family project. Edging the patio with hardy shrubs and flowers is another means of adding to the outdoor atmosphere and providing desired privacy. Patio equipment, greatly improved through modern technology over the past decade, will also go a long way toward making outdoor living moreen joyable. High on the list of “musts” for many families is the outdoor gas grill, which has gained popularity quickly since its introduction only a few years ago. Can Be Regulated The grill can be attached to the home’s supply of natural gas or operated from a tank of bottled gas. For the family that wants to get out of doors as often as possiole, the gas grill offers speed, heat that can be regulated, and cooking fires that are ready at a moment’s notice. To keep the patio warm on early spring or late fall evenings, infra-red patio heaters are the answer. These unique heaters beam directly on solid objects, like people and furniture, so that the heat isn’t
