The Column g A Sideshow Os Events In Milford
IT’S A little thing to do, Just to think, % Anyone, no matter who, Ought to think, Take a little time each day From the minutes thrown away, Spare it from your work or play, Stop and think. You will find that those who fail Do not think. Half the trouble that we see, Trouble brewed for you and me, Probably would never be If we’d think. — Author Unknown RAISING THE height of the railroad tracks through Milford has caused considerable trouble, particularly with motorists having low tail pipes. NIPSComan Jay Peffley of Syracuse was one who had his tail pipe assembly torn loose last week when going across the tracks. Other tail pipes were seen in the yard of Helen Funk, obviously thrown there by disgruntled victims of the Catherine street crossing. Hopefully the railroad will soon blacktop their grade to the tracks. ROMOLA J. BAKER of r 2 Syracuse says she and her husband have definite plans on their package store, proposed for Milford. Plans, she says, will hinge on the outcome of the December 5 hearing before the Alcholic Beverage Board of Kosciusko county. If the license is granted they will have one year to complete their plans and open their business. The Bakers have, however, taken an option on the building owned by Adam Pamer that has housed Chupp’s Body Shop, Pamer’s camper manufacturing equipment, Milford Motors and most recently has served as a warehouse for Union 76. The building is located on state road 15 near it’s intersection with the Syracuse road. THE MIZPAH Shrine Chanters sang at an Eastern Star meeting in Milford on Friday night and were later entertained in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joe O. Estep on north Main street. Estep is a member of the chanters. DON’T FORGET the mental health gifts are due at Hie M-J offices in Milford or Syracuse prior to November 25. YOU MAY think that the Democrats lost all the way over the recent election but this just isn’t true. John F. Augsburger, our state senator, received a political cake from one of his neighbors. The cake featured elephants, flags and donkeys on it among other things. He remembered his friends while they were “down” and presented the portion of the cake that was “donkey” to Arch, Della and Betty Smith or maybe, he was afraid to eat anything that “democratic” in case it rubbed off on him.

SEVERAL OF the people in Milford are slightly irritated at the stop light at Main and Emeline. Among them are Bill Perry and this writer. When you are heading east or west it does not have a caution light when it goes from green to red and it is very easy to run the light when it changes so quickly. When it was burned out recently the caution part evidently was not replaced. This makes for a dangerous situation, hope it is repaired soon. DELLA B. is back at her desk in The M-J office at Milford. She spent a recent eight days in Bloomington looking after her daughter, Mrs. Michael Yoder and her new grandson, Jason. A CURRENT visitor to our town is Mrs. Gatha Kern of Bronson, Mich. Mrs. Kern is staying in the home of Mrs. Herbert Baumgartner and enjoying several outings. The Kerns resided at Waubee Lake several years ago and operated the local drug store. DO YOU KNOW you are not to use your hand and finger muscles for writing? Use your arm muscles. Try it, you can write longer and it’s better for you. OUR REPORTER from just west of the Milford elementary school tells us another truck went off the road last Wednesday night at the same spot where Jesse Beer’s hired man turned over a truck earlier this year. This is the spot where there has been no berm, just a drop off, since the road was repaired a couple of years ago. The truck that wrecked this time was driven by an employee of Lowell (Bus) Rassi. It was reported to the northern district commissioner (who by the way was re-elected last week) and he said he would try to get it repaired next year.

meantime guess anyone who goes west out of Milford or comes into town on west Emeline street just has to take their chances. Happy landings! HAVE YOU TRIED the new El Ranchito restaurant in uptown Milford? The decor is different, the service friendly and the food good. Pleasant music is heard while you are dining and you have a choice of Mexican or American cusine or can enjoy a mixture. This is the second week in a row that we. have ask for the police report and at press time on Wednesday we still do not have it. The town board president is aware of this situation and still no report. What’s up Doc? LAKELAND LOCALS Mrs. Pret Poe of Milford had Monday visitors of Mr. and Mrs. Rudolph Yoder of Milford. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Roderick and daughter of Bloomington, 111., recently spent a few days with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Motts of Milford.

United Fund Stands At 89% Os Goal
The United Fund of Kosciusko county is reporting $178,600 which is 89 per cent of its $200,000 goal. Two divisions, selected prospects and the professional division, headed by Bob King and Stanley Pequignot, have already gone over goal. Claypool is 147 per cent over their goal. The Claypool campaign was chaired by Alton Bouse. In making the announcement, John R. Hall, the campaign chairman, said, “Success is within our grasp, but we need $21,400. What we do between now and next Thursday will determine whether or not we will be able to report a successful $200,000 campaign to our fellow citizens. Every card is important. Success is in the cards and the cards are in the campaigners hands. We can’t succeed unless we call on every card and succeed we must. Sixteen human-service agencies are depending upon us. We have less than one week to complete this vital community responsibility which we began six weeks ago. We can do it if everyone makes
up his mind today to complete his responsibility. All campaigners are urged to make daily reports at the United Fund office which is keying a tally of the campaign progress. We hope that all workers will bring in their worked cards every day. We need to know where we stand.” Among the companies that campaign officials are waiting to hear from in the inplant division are; American Brattice Cloth, Barth, Inc., GTI Dytronics, Hand Polishing, Liberty Homes, Midwest Spring, Orthopedic Equipment, Regent-Monarch Homes, Syracuse Rubber Products, Vega Corporation, Warsaw Plating, Glass Tech and C & I Manufacturing. Other divisions in which final reports are awaited are; Warsaw Community schools, Lakeland Community schools, Grace college, Murphy Medical Center, postal service, state highway, county highway, court house, city employees, sheriff’s department, and the library. The towns in the county which final reports are awaited are:
