of God. We must be thankful for all that He has given us! Members of the religious community will be gathering at 7 p.m. tonight (Wednesday) at the United Methodist church for the annual community Thanksgiving service Rev. David Widmoyer of the

Island Chapel church will serve as speaker and music will be furnished by the Christian church. DURING THEIR November 19 meeting the ladies of the Island Chapel United Methodist Women held a silent auction and raised $75 for the Milford Emergency service. SORRY. MARTIE, your tarts were delicious! Somehow when we published the item last week about the Bethel women holding a meeting with an English program complete with English tarts for dessert Mrs. Terry Thompson's name was left off the refreshment committee. Dick says to thank you, too. They were good tarts! THE AMOS Orns of Our Town observed their 58th bedding anniversary on Monday. HAVE YOU written the new Milford Emergency telephone number down? It is 658-1172! WHIPPING^CREAM donated by both Campbell's Market and Augsburger's Food Palaces helped make the Cub Scout pie eating contest Monday mght /a real fun night with thejiwys coming up with faces decorated! Photos elsewhere in the paper show the smiling boys with the cream from ear to ear. THE DOTY clan is looking forward to a happy Thanksgiving Day this year as father Harry celebrates his 86th birthday. Rita (Dowty) Currier and husband Richard are coming down from Michigan for the holiday and Earleen (Fisher) Tatro and husband Nick are here from New York city. Rita is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dean Dowty of r 1 Syracuse, her mother being the former Mary Ann Doty and Earleen is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Noble Fisher, her mother being the former Donna Doty. AS WE hear it Rev. Jim Alt of the United Methodist church is good at selling his product. The product in this case was Texas Ruby Red grapefruit which is being sold by the Lions club. Alt, and other Lions, were working on Milford's Main street last Friday night. Alt asked a man if he would like to purchase a box of the fruit. He explained the profits were going to the emergency vehicle fund. As the story goes, the man said he had “better" things to spend his money on. Alt said he hoped the man didn’t have an accident and get hurt because he would then feel guilty if the emergency unit had to be called to help. The man made an about face

and purchased a box of the grapefruit. Now, that’s salesmanship! THE KIDS and the congregation at the Christian church enjoyed "Grub Day" last Sunday. The younger set dressed in their "grubbiest" clothes for the Sunday morning worship service. They even sat on blankets and pillows in the CAC building instead of chairs. Next Sunday all will be back to normal with the youngsters, as well as adults, in their Sunday-go-to-meetin’ clothes. ADVERTISING WASN’T always as aggressive as it is today. This ad appeared in an American newspaper 50 years ago: “The public is kindly requested tobuy Universal Whitener tooth powder. It is neither better nor worse than most of the others in my store, but I think it is just about as good as any of them, and I particularly recommend it because it is made by my nephew, who is a very deserving young man and hopes to be married soon on the strength of it.” Indiana solons vote to override vetoes By RANDY FITZGERALD The Mail-Journal's Washington Bureau WASHINGTON - Indiana congressmen, with the exception of two lame-ducks, voted with the overwhelming majority of the House last week to override two presidential vetoes. President Ford, in an apparent miscalculation of his support in Congress, saw his veto of amendments to the Freedom of Information Act defeated 371-31, wriile his veto of the “rehabilitation act amendments” was overridden, 398-7. Two Indiana House members who were defeated on election day, Rep. Earl Landgrebe, RValparaiso, and Rep. William Bray, R-Martinsville, were two of the 31 who supported the presidential veto of the Freedom of Information amendments. These amendments to a 1966 law would make it easier for private citizens and the press to secure federal documents, many of them presently marked “classified.” Ford said he vetoed the bill because it would allow the courts to make decisions on whether specific information should be classified and because it would open up intelligence secrets to public inspection. Os Indiana’s 11 House members, only Landgrebe voted to support the President on his veto of the rehabilitation act. The legislation provides for a S4O million increase in grants to states for rehabilitation of handicapped persons. Ford said he vetoed the bill because it would create a new bureaucracy within the Department of Health, Education and Welfare and would involve Congress in making “minute decisions" for HEW which the agency should be making itself. Celebrate holidays safely The holidays should be a time to relax and enjoy family and friends. It should also be a time to be on the lookout for fire hazards. Don’t let your holiday season be ruined by tragedy. The biggest year-roimd danger is careless smoking, which accounts for more than half of all fatal residential fires in this country. Accordingly the Better Business Bureau urges that yvhen you’re entertaining for the holidays, you provide plenty of large, non-combustible ash trays designed to prevent cigarettes from falling out. Keep all matches and lighters out of reach of children. When the party is over, check all rooms to be certain no cigarettes are burning anywhere When buying a Christmas tree, be sure it is fresh, place in a stand filled with water and when needles start falling off, take it down. Artificial trees may be less flammable than natural trees, but should be tested by Underwriters Laboratories. Don’t put electric lights on metallic trees. They become charged with electricity if strung with faulty lights and anyone touching it could be electrocuted. Check all lights for broken or cracked sockets, frayed or bare wires and loose connections. Don’t use indoor lights outside or vice versa. Turn off lights when leaving or going to bed.

KCRTA contribution is * made to bi-centennial

The Kosciusko County Retired Teachers association project of a contribution to the bi-centennial is progressing in fine shape according to a spokesman this week. The W’amer Pioneer School Restoration project finance committee chairperson Leonard Barnhart of Syracuse reports receipt from Secretary of State Larry A. Conrad of incorporation papers for the restoration of the old frame subscription school built in 1838-39 by Warren Warner. Built for the educat ion of children of pioneer families who

Higher egg prices expected WEST LAFAYETTE — Egg producers, who find themselves in the same profitless position as livestock producers, are cutting back on their output. In fact, says Purdue university economist Lee F. Schrader, they may be over adjusting to higher feed costs and interest rates. This raises the possibility of record high egg prices after mid-1975. Since last January the hatch of chicks for laying flock replacements has been below a year earlier — during August the hatch was down 19 per cent and in September was off 26 per cent. By mid-1975 egg production probably will be five per cent below the 1974 level, Schrader believes. As a consequence prices will likely be higher than those of last year. And this rise will be reflected also at the retail level, the economist adds.
