V ?• facts about ‘OUR TOWN’ Milford, Ind. By JERI SEELY This old photo was taken in front of the blacksmith shop in Our Town in the summer of 1900.

Kimmell, formerly of Milford, underwent an operation last week in the Pine Lake Div. hospital at LaPort. She would appreciate hearing from her friends in Milford. Bill McCreary, a patient at the state hospital at Rushville, Ind., sends this column a letter of good wishes to his many friends in the Milford community, and encloses this tricky questions: "If it takes a four-month-old w<M>dpecker with a rubber bill four months and 13 days to peck a

hole through a cypress log that is big enough to make 117 shingles, and it takes 169 shingles to make a bundle worth 98 cents, how long will it take a cross-eyed grasshopper with a cork leg to kick the seeds out of a dill pickle?”
