facts about :•• 4 OUR TOWN’ Milford, Ind. By JERI SEELY Our picture of the week is one we received from Gordon Brubaker at the bank. It was taken on June 7 of this year and shows the bank the way it looked way back when ... a little over five months ago. Il’s hard to believe! Isn't it?

Noble Holderread at the post office may have helped us with our problem on the balloon Rex Fisher, son of the Noble Fishers, found last week. The balloon had the words United Nations on it. Seems, according to information from Mr Holderread, like a class of eighth graders in Detroit, Mich., put their names and addresses on 170 balloons and sent them up last month in honor of United Nations day. Maybe Rex found one of these

Receives One To 10 In Theft Retrial An all-male jury last week found Orlo D. Stouder, 38, of 116 West Main street, Syracuse, guilty of theft of property valued at more than SIOO in a two-day retrial in Kosciusko Superior court. Stouder was recommended for a one to 10 year term at the Indiana state prison, Michigan City, for the theft charge involving two rolls of aluminum taken from Barth Corp, at Milford on February 24 of this year. Value of the aluminum was placed at $2,800. The jury also recommended Stouder be disfranchised for five years. He was taken into custody by state officers on August 13 and later released on $2,000 bond. His arrest, and also that of Lowell Barefoot, Syracuse, came about by implication given in the theft by Jerry Brinhall of Goshen and now serving a theft sentence in Elkhart county. Barefoot, who is charged with theft and conspiracy to commit a felony, is scheduled for sentencing on November 26. Brinhall testified that Stouder, Barefoot and Brinhall planned the scheme and carried it out, storing the aluminum on a farm owned by Glen Messmore of r 1 Pierceton. Originally charged with theft and second degree burglary, the burglary charge was dropped after the first trial for Stouder ended in a hung jury. Judge Allan A. Rasor passed sentence.

Metzger, Jr.; Alan Sands, Sr.; Alice Schilling, So.; Charles Shank, Sr.; Janet Wiard, So. Sunday's Lesson Given For Christian Scientists Oppression in any form needs to be faced up to and overcome. This is a theme to be discussed at Christian Science church services Sunday in a Bible Lesson-Sermon entitled “Ancient and Modem Necromancy, alias Mesmerism and Hypnotism, Denounced.’’ “Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good,” one of the Scriptural texts states. A spiritual solution to oppression is indicated in these words of Mary Baker Eddy in Science and Health with Key to die Scriptures: “A few immortal sentences, breathing the omnipotence of divine justice, have been potent to break despotic fetters and abolish the whippingpost and slave market; but oppression neither went down in blood, nor did the breath of freedom come from the cannon’s mouth. Love is the liberator.” Uninjured After Car Hits Sign Craig S. Bontrager, 24, of r 2 Syracuse, escaped injury at 12:32 a.m. Friday when his 1971 Ford failed to negotiate a curve and hit a state highway sign along Indiana 15 south of CR 42 in Elkhart county. Southbound at 65 miles an hour, Elkhart county police said his car left the road at a curve, continued 140 feet prior to crashing into a sign and continued on for another 159 feet before coming to a stop. Damages were listed at $250.
