By CARLSHEARER It’s a fact that a backslider (those who drift from the Christian life) is a slap in the face to Christianity. Dwight L. Moody said, “One backslider will do more harm than 30 Christian men can do food.” Unconverted people say, “Here are some men who have tried this way. If there is as much joy in it as you say, how is it that so many people are dissatisif ied and go back to the world.” It’s a hard argument to overcome ... A great many people are not true backsliders. As the old chaplain in the army said, “Thy never slide forward.” They have been clinging to some minister, some church, or church choir. They need to be converted to Jesus Christ. We invite you to the Milford Christian Church.

Propose Park For Town Os Milford
Max Beer, a resident of the southeast area of Milford, appeared at the town board meeting Tuesday evening with a proposal for board members which would establish a town park in the area of south East street. Beer stated approximately onehalf acre of land, presently a vegetable garden, is for sale and would make a nice park for the children in that area. Beer continued that youngsters residing west of Main street could use either the junior high school or the elementary school grounds for play area but children in the southeast of town are currently using the street as a playground for lack of another place. Asked how many youngsters are involved he stated 15 that he could count with many younger children in the area not allowed out. He said he felt the park would draw youngsters from the entire east side of towtf. The proposal presented by Beer was if the tonfn would purchase the property he would donate work and materials. This would include gardening, seeding, planting five shade trees on one end and a swing set for a beginning. The trees would oe planted on one end of the other end being for baseball, softball or other games. Beer also volunteered to keep the park mowed and stated he would sign an agreement on same. Town board president T. A. Miller stated it was a very commendable project but he didn't know where the board would get the money to purchase the lot. Nothing has been budgeted for such a project. He continued that this would a good project for the Lions club or other civic clubs. The proposal was tabled for the present time because of lack of town funds, however, board members agreed they would like to see what can be" done as a community project. Dog Problem J. L. Dewart, Mrs. Hazel Johnson and Mrs. Delbert Moneyheffer, representing the residents of North West street and West Fourth street, spoke of the dog problem in that area. ‘ Dewart said as high as seven dogs are in his yard in the morning and one must always “watch his step” when mowing. Mr. Dewart continued that he has tried to find the town marshal no less than six times but has never been able to locate him. One day he drove several miles around town and still could not find a policeman. Dewart kept refering to the state dog ordinance with board members and the town attorney telling him it is not their job to inforce the state law, however, the town also has dog ordinances which the town marshal should enforce. Those present questioned the board about shooting dogs on their property and were told that while dog owners are liable for damages done by their dogs it is advisable not to shoot these animals. . John Martin, street and superintendent, stated he does pick up some animals and holds them for three days prior to turning them over to the humane shelter in Warsaw. Moat dogs, he said, are kept overnight and are then claimed by their owners. Board president Miller said he was not aware the dog problem is as bad as the townsmen claimed although he too had a few problems in his neighborhood. He asked if the dogs in question were stray or were owned residents of the town. He was told they belong in town but upon checking with trustee John Davidsen, Dewart had found the taxes have not been paid on the dogs. Besides roaming the neighborhood the dogs keep area residents awake during the night with continuous barking. The whole neighborhood, Dewart stated, is up in arms about the dog problem. Upon checking town ordinances board members found the last ordinance provides for licensing of dogs. It calls for all dogs running at large to be picked up and held for four days. If the dog does not have the town tag the owner must purchase same and must pay a 50 cents per day boarding fee. If the dog is not claimed in seven days, the ordinance calls for it to be disposed of. Discussions continued for some time on the problems of dogs in the town with attorney William I. Wanted Part time help in afternoons 5 days a week — some bookkeeping. Address reply — Help Wanted, Box 8, Syracuse.
Gerrard suggesting those involved talk with the dog owners about the problem. Board president Miller suggested the next time Dewart wanted to contact the town marshall Don Drake he try calling instead of looking for him. Miller said Mrs. Drake usually answers the phone and she knows where to find her husband. Miller agreed that nothing is more frustrating than a barking dog when one is trying to sleep and stated the board would check into ordinances to see what kind of “teeth” they have. They will also contact Drake to make sure he is aware of the problem and have him enforce the laws on the town books. Miller concluded by saying, "I don’t understand people who keep dogs who are a nuisance to the community, I don’t know of anyone in this room who would keep such an animal.” Duncan Resigns The expected resignation of former town board president Carl Duncan was read and accepted. Duncan stated it had been "strongly recommended” by his doctors. Duncan suffered a serious heart attack earlier this summer. Board members Gerald Martin and Miller praised Duncan for everything he has done for the town. Discussions were held on the coming town election and congratulations were given to the town board president for winning the president’s flight club championship at Tippecanoe. The budget and an additional appropriation which were not approved at the scheduled August 30 meeting because of lack of a quorum were signed by members. Water Increase Frozen The price freeze set by president Nixon last month stops any water increase planned by the town, however, upon talking with members of the Public Service Commission Gerrard learned that this does not prevent an application from being made. Board members will therefore go ahead with studies in connection with the increase in the water rates. Gerrard stated he was told an engineering firm can study the situation and make recommendations or an accounting firm that specializes in this type of work could handle it or the town could work up its own rate. He suggested the town work on the project first since there is nothing wrong with this and it could save a considerable sum of money. First an ordinance is needed, then a rate schedule and last a presentation needs to be made as to why the increase is needed. Board members stated it is currently costing approximately SBO for water taps, however, the town can only charge $35 and is thus loosing a considerable sum each time a tap is made. The minimum quarterly charge for users is $3.75 with 404 users reported by Martin. Gerrard suggested board members check the operating expenses of the department for the past couple of years. This will be done in the near future. Discussions were again held on purchasing a tractor for the street and water departments with a tractor definitely needed prior to winter. The clerk was instructed to prepare a legal notice for advertising for bids. Et=7lunch e/p MONDAY - Sloppy Joe sandwich, buttered potatoes, fruit, cake and milk.
