success of the open house goes to manager Gordon Brubaker and his Girls Friday — Hazel. Pat. Doris. Mary Ellen and Carol — who were kept busy serving the customers and presiding at the refreshment table. Belated congratulations go to Mr. and Mrs. Mervin Mishler of Our Town. They observed their 60th wedding anniversary on November 23. We have known the Mishlers ever since our childhood when they would spend their summer months at their cottage on Waubee Lake. Said cottage was just a few doors from my folks home and 1 used to “pester” them with millions of questions on my almost daily visits around the neighborhood. We saw Leon Newman out washing windows at the barber shop earlier this week and tried unsuccessfully to convince him to wash our windows at home too! Forgot to ask him what happened to his barber pole. It was so pretty and seems to have been broken. Have you been to the Big Barn auction yet? They are still holding over flowing sales every Saturday night. How’s the turkey around your house? Seems like everyone in Our Town had the same menu for the biggest part of this week — left overs from Thansgiving. At least the snow makes one think of Christmas which is only 25 days away. Mr. and Mrs. C. D Barnes of Milford returned home Sunday after spending a four day holiday with the James H Barnes family at Pontiac. Mich

The dessert can be prepared in advance, then stored in the refrigerator until serving time. It can be chilled in one large handsome mold, or it can be molded for,individual servings.

CARPET from A to Z By John Atz Carpeting And Children JOHN ATZ It used to be that couples with small children postponed buying the carpet of their dreams until after the children were grown. But times have changed and so has carpeting. Today, more and more couples are actually insisting on carpeting for their children’s bedrooms and playrooms. . Are you wondering why carpeting and children are no longer considered natural enemies? For one thing, today’s carpeting is practically “child proof.” That’s right, the non-absorbent, stain resistant fibers now used in carpet manufacturing can take the rough treatment usually associated with children. Spilled soft drinks and even poster paint won’t ruin most easy-to-clean carpeting. There are many other practical reasons for carpeting your child’s room. A’ soft floor covering eases the inevitable falls, and lessens bruises and hurts. It has been found that a well maintained carpet harbors fewer germs than the conventional wood or tile floors. Carpeted floors provide insulation against drafts too. This is especially important in baby’s room or in areas where small children play on the floor. Os course we can’t forget another important reason for carpeting children’s rooms — less noise. Carpeting will actually deaden the many loud sounds made by excited children at play. Considering a carpet for your child’s bedroom or playroom? We have a fine selection to choose from. You are sure to find the carpet you want, expertly installed by our own em-ployee-mechanics at your convenience.
