•:• facts about-: : . ‘OUR TOWN’ ♦ Milford, Ind. By JERI SEELY The above photo was loaned to us by Dr. H. C. Snyder and shows his office building as it looked in the year 1907. In that year the town’s dentist, Dr. J. F. Peterson, was located in the building. Note the vacant lot to the north of the building. Youngsters today really grow up fast! Arriving home one evening recently I was surprised to see my young neighbor girl, Bambi Smith, clip clopping up and down the sidewalk in a pair of her mother’s higfi heeled shoes. Bambi will only be in the second grade this fall, but was delighted at the success she was having as she proudly clipped and clopped along in the shoes which contained a sizeable amount of extra room. She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Smith and is a very charming young lady. Blue ribbon honors go to Mrs. Richard Fehnel of near Our Town who made a very special hamburger for the bossman last week. Complete with homemade bun, rmistard and onion, the hamburger was the size of a large paperplate and was enjoyed by everyone at The M-J.

The Milford Library: A Nice Place To Visit

When was the last time you visited the Milford library? Have you read a good book lately or has the boob tube managed to take up all your time? Have you been too busy this summer golfing, gardening and enjoying the great out of doors to take time out to read a good book? Shame on you! Why not resolve to change your ways and visit the Milford public library within the next week. It’s a nice place to visit. The library is open from 1 to 5 p.m. week days and Wednesdays from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Saturday hours are 9 to 11:30 a.m. and 1 to 5 p.m. The library features hundreds of books on varied subjects to fit anyone’s reading interest be in fact, fiction, history, science, sports, biographies, etc. You name the subject and the Milford public library probably has a book to fill the bill. If not, the librarian can secure one for you in a few days time from the state library. Children’s Department The children’s department located in the library’s basement was just opened this summer and allows for breathing space upstairs when an overcrowded condition existed during past years. It also gives the younger set a place of their own. The summer reading program concluded last Wednesday with a party on the library lawn for those who read 10 books or more during the past several weeks. Some 84 youngsters in grades one through four were enrolled in the program. At the party games were played and prizes were awarded to the winners. The librarians ser> ed punch and cookies and certificates were presented. Head librarian Mrs. Charles Kerlin stated many more children use the library in the summer months but do not choose to enroll in the reading club. In Milford the reading program is conducted to encourage the youngsters to read books of their own level and not to see how many books can be read during the summer Where one child can read 100 to 150 books during this time period it might be just as big a task for another child to read 10 or 15 books. Since the children’s department is still quite new at the Milford library facts and figures are not available to compare the use of the new facilities, however, Mrs. Kerlin reports there were more children using
