H The Column R A Sideshow Os Events In Milford

MRS. R. E. SLABAUGH of Milford has been a very busy lady this summer. She recently counted the number of people she has entertained during the past few months and came up with 350. Very busy indeed! MRS. HERSCHELL TRINE of Warsaw called at the home of Miss Trella Caris in Milford recently. Mrs. Trine is the former Harriet Stuart and was a pupil of Miss Caris at the Cashmer school southeast of Milford some years ago. WE HAVE HEARD of keeping things but never before have we seen a 20 year old envelope. Mrs. Herman Miller of r 2 sent several news items to The M-J last week in an old subscription renewal envelope. It’s vintage: 1952. LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON, that’s what Betty Smith thinks of AEB and his son Ron. Mrs. Smith showed up at work one day last week in a beautiful white pants suit with sailor effect. The first thing Ron said was, “Hello Olive, where’s Popeye?” Arch’s first remark upon seeing Betty was, “Hello! Popeye!” SOMEONE IS FINALLY A WINNER. That’s right! Mrs. Arlene Green of Dewart Lake won $25 recently in the Reader’s Digest sweepstakes. MILFORD’S 93 year old citizen, Edna Fuller, recently returned home from an extended stay in the Goshen hospital where she had a toe amputated. Edna is getting along fine now at home and enjoys seeing and hearing from her friends. Glad you are improved Mrs. Fuller! Keep up the good work. RESIDENTS WEST of Milford had another reason recently to be disgusted with the county highway department and the commissioners. The road just west of the elementary school has never had the berm replaced since the road was rebuilt two years ago. There is no berm, just a drop off. The county officials have been advised but choose to ignore the situation and to neglect fixing the berm. Many farmers use this route to bring their grain, hay, implements. etc., to town. Recently Jesse Beer’s hired man overturned a stock truck of corn when he got off the road at this dangerous place. It could have been much worse, someone could have been hurt or killed. Why not correct the situation before something that bad does happen? The road is smoother now than in years past but it is still very narrow. It is highly traveled and the berm shoud be good. Many farmers, school buses and almost all of the traffic that goes west to Hastings use this road. There have been many close calls. Come on Mr. Commissioners, let’s get this thing corrected. OUR LADY of Guadalupe Catholic church, located in the old Chore-Time building at the corner of Fourth and Main street, will hold its first mass at 6 p.m. on September 9. The building has been remodeled and really shows improvement. Work will continue after the church’s opening with a formal dedication planned at a future The church will also be the new headquarters for the United Mexican-American organization of this town. Alex Morris is currently serving as UMA president. Since a large number of persons who will be attending the new church are MexicanAmerican most of the Sunday morning masses will be In Spanish. A LETTER received at The MJ office this week from former resident Harry K. Om sends, “Greetings from Yuma (Arizona) — the place where the sun goes to spend the winter. After a long hot summer, we wished it would spend the summers somewhere else.” Harry is the son of Mr. and Mrs.

Amos Om of North Main street. In the letter Orn, west coast director for Revival Fires Christian Evangelizers Association, Inc., tells of the accomplishments of his son, Larry, who will be a freshman at Arizona Western college and his daughter, Cynthia, who will be a senior this year at Kofa high school in Yuma. Cynthia is head song-leader at the school. Just recently her team entered the school song leaders contest held at the University of'California — Redlands and they took home the grand champion award. Needless to say the Orns, like all parents, are proud of their children. THANKS TO the Peoples State Bank photographer, AEB is the proud possessor of a cute snapshot taken at the county fair. Each year the bank has a photographer at the livestock auction and 4-H club members are given a picture of their animal at the sale. This year the quick thinking photographer turned his camera the other direction and took a photo of the bossman holding his four-year-old granddaughter Cris. MILFORD JUNIOR , high school teacher Arlo Beiswanger, long an advocate of close rapport with his students, has taken to wearing mod clothes. He showed up at pre-school teachers meetings with a flashy jacket and won the approval of his fellow teachers. Not to be outdone, another Milford junior high teacher, A. A. (“Andy”) Pylant, who teaches industrial arts at both the Milford and North Webster schools, showed up at the some pre-school session with a Fumanchu mustache. Kevin Robie On Duty In Colorado COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. — U.S. Air Force sergeant Kevin C. Robie, son of Mr. and Mrs. > Norman B.
