The Column A Sideshow Os MB Events In Milford

Never will you be forgotten, Long as memory of the past Draws your face with griefs sharp pencil On our hearts and locks them fast. Thus will many of the citizens of Milford long remember Mrs. Clifford (Louise) Replogle who died early Tuesday morning after an extended illness. Mrs. Replogle gave strength to many of our town’s residents by the way she faced the lengthy

illness which finally took her life. MRS. FRED WEISSER and children, Doug, Greg, Brad and Kathy spent the past week end in Evansville visiting Mrs. Weisser’s brother, Dave Cory, who is employed at Deaconess hospital in that southern Indiana city. While shopping at the Washington Square Mall in Evansville on Friday, Mrs.

Weisser and her children met Dr. Otis Bowen, then candidate for Governor of Indiana, and Evansville’s Mayor Russell Lloyd. They had their photographs taken with these two men. —o- 4 IT’S CARROT TIME - Remember the gigantic radishes we featured in the paper a while back? They were grown on the Elmer Haab farm on r 1 Syracuse. Now it’s carrot lime. It seems Elmer’s son Steve is trying to top his dad, only Steve is in the carrot business. He has raised several that range from I*4 to two pounds and one that topped the scales at two pounds, 15 ounces. 11181’8 a lot of carrot! But, we know it’s true because Elmer brought the big one to the M-J office as proof. Maybe the farmers of this area should take lessons from the Haabs!. LEAVE IT TO the senior citizens to get the jobs done. We have caught M. A. Markley several times now as he polices the area in downtown Milford on his way to the post office. He deposits his items in the nearby trash barrels. Our thanks to Mr. Markley for doing his good deed which would not be necessary at all if the people who deposit their trash in the streets of our town would have taken a minute to put it in the barrels instead. SPIED: A young mother from Milford sitting in a car Tuesday morning with seven youngsters. Asked what she was doing with all of the little ones, all pre-school age and only two of her own, she commented she was baby sitting while the other two mothers were

voting. When the other mothers returned to the car they took their turn at babysitting while the third mother voted. That’s what we call cooperation! HAVE YOU ever heard the name of Bola’s Liquor, Inc.? An application has been filed with the state for a new license for a package store of this name. Said store is to be located at Syracuse road and state road 15 in Milford. The application for the beer, liquor and wine dealer’s license has been signed by W. U. Baker, president and Ramola J. Baker of r 2 box 200 Syracuse. <*L hearing has been set for 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Dec. 5, in the clerk’s office at the court house in Warsaw. MRS. HENRY BEER called The M-J office last week after the paper came out. She was a little upset about our use of the term “cry room” in the article on her church’s dedication of its fellowship hall. Cry room, mother’s room, nursery, etc. They are all rooms where a mother can take her crying youngster. SOME PEOPLE seem to have trouble understanding that car lights should be on at dusk and on when its foggy and on until sunrise. Also, people don’t seem to understand when someone blinks their lights off and on that means the other person should have their lights on instead of driving in the dark, making it dangerous for themselves as well as

everyone else on the roads. NOW COMES a letter from Joe G. Grove of South Bend per an item in this column last week on the death of Mrs. Hazel (Grove) Williams. Seems like we made her a Groves instead of Grove. Wonder if these two families could get together so we wouldn’t have so many problems with the two names. Mr. Grove’s letter comments as follows: \ “The name is spelled Grove not Groves. No relation. There is no “S’* on our name. “Zilar (her father) was trustee when the Milford high school was built. Zilar and my father were brothers. Also, ‘June 14, 1972 present award of gold to Joe Glen Groves’, when you write about either watch the spelling.” Sorry Mr. Grove, we’ll try and remember this in the future. The M-J office received unverified reports of two accidents which occurred at the Catherine street-Penn-Central crossing on Sunday afternoon. In the first accident a trailer hitch caught on the hightrack and wrecked a car and two children were slightly injured. The second accident broke a gas tank on an automobile and gas was all over the place and the fire department had to be called. As we heard it, part of this gas ran down into the sewer. The M-J has called the police for the weekly report several times, starting on Monday, on Tuesday night we asked that a call be returned when Mr. Drake was not there. As of press time on Wednesday we still have not

To Be Discontinued In 1973: Milford's

Wade Mishler of Milford said this week he is discontinuing his ambulance service as of January 1, 1973. Mishler further commented he would continue with the operation of his funeral home. Mishler approached the Milford town board at its August meeting with the possibility of discontinuing the service. He stated many persons don’t realize the new regulations which will go into effect between 1973 and 1975 for the operation of ambulances. In August Mishler told board members his ambulance service has been operating in the red for the past several years and stated at that time he could not continue to operate in such a manner. At that time the town board took the matter under advisement stating it knew it was

heard frbm our town policeman on this matter. The American Legion post at Milford has started the remodeling of its building which houses the post office. The 317,000 project includes a new front on the building. Milford citizens will be using a false entry for awhile but the results will be worth it. A lot of credit should go to the local post for keeping up with the times and keeping the post office uptown with the business houses. Enchanted Hills Association Meets The last general meeting of the season for the Enchanted Hills Community Association was held Sunday with 33 members in attendance. Appreciation was expressed to The Mail-Journal for publishing the association’s activities; to Mrs. George Bish for hosting a pot luck and wiener roast, and to Phil Oppenheim for supplying the wieners and buns for the event. Mrs. Virgil Helman reported Columbia Realty Co. had finished paving Rampart drive, Basin street and Morris road, and that these streets had been deeded to Kosciusko county. President Wilbur Charles announced that the county commissioners had inspected several other streets needing work and agreed to repair them. A special committee, appointed to secure warning flashers at the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad crossing on Old State Road 13-A, reported correspondence had begun with the railroad. The committee also reported that John Zimmerman, secretary of the Crowsdale addition, volunteered to join forces with Enchanted Hills in securing the needed flashers. It was decided that other community associations and businesses along 13-A would be asked to support the effort by

the town’s problem as the residents would be deprived of a service. Board members were hopeful at that time a solution would be found before the end of the year. Mishler has operated an ambulance service in Milford for the past 26 years. Not New Problem The discontinuance of ambulance service in Milford is not a new problem. Elkhart county is currently trying to solve a problem of ambulance service there. The Red Arrow ambulance service announced it will discontinue serving Elkhart county on November 18. The ambulance service is currently operating on an eight-hour (8

adding their demands to those of Enchanted Hills and Crowsdale. Director Charles Menefee reported he is conducting a survey of Enchanted Hills and Fascination Place to determine home owners desiring natural gas service. He also noted that new automatic washing machines are being secured for the laundromat. A note of thanks was read from the Sparta township fire department for a donation toward new floodlights. A report was given on the findings by George Kennedy, Jr., of the state department of natural resources on beautifying of the area. Residents of Memorial drive reported planting of maple trees along both sides of the street for two blocks with more plantings planned in the spring. The next general meeting of the association will be the first Sunday in April. Mrs. Wilbur Charles and Mrs. Herman Brown served refreshments at the conclusion of the meeting. Courtesy is so cheap that most people take no interest in it.

a.m.-5 p.m./per day basis. Funeral homes in Elkhart discontinued ambulance services some years ago. Robert Ehret and Joe Blocker, all Goshen funeral home directors who currently operate\ ambulance services in Elkhart county, said they would not handle any additional calls in Elkhart or the fringe area. Diey are also holding to a January 1 deadline for discontinuing their services. The Elkhart county commissioners are currently studying ways by which residents of their county can be served by ambulance service during the coming years. As of this date no plan has been officially proposed by the commissioners.

Receive Suspended Sentence On Friday Two Kosciusko county brothers — Bruce Lee Rowland, 20, Syracuse and Larry Paul Rowland, 18, r 2 Leesburg, received suspended one to 10 year sentences, were disfranchised for two years and placed on probation for two years. They were also ordered to pay SIOO fines each and court costs. The brothers were charged with the September 30 theft of $1,409.80 from Campbell’s Market in Milford. They turned themselves in on October 4 and returned the money at that time. They were arraigned in Judge Allan A. Rasor’s court on October 23.
