The Mail-Journal publishers and staff received many nice compliments on the supplement in last week's paper pointing to the Saturday open house at the Milford newspaper plant Almost all of the research and work that went into the 24-page supplement came from the desk of Jeri Seely, Mail-Journal editor, and plaudit for the effort are all hers. The chief design of the supplement was to mention those who work on the various publications of The Papers Incorporated currently Methods of printing and publishing have changed so radically in recent years that we might tend to forget those who went before. For example, the “old timers" here at The Mail-Journal are mindful of the many faithful employees who worked on the old Milford Mail and Pierceton Press, and other publications during the "hot metal" days. Miss Edith Baumgartner is a case in point She was left at the helm of the printing plant at Milford while we went off to fight a war in May of 1942 Those can well be called the "lean years " Advertising revenue was down, newsprint was in short supply, and skilled labor was practically non-existent Yet. she held things together with the aid of Waldo E Yea ter and some of his men at The Farmers Exchange at New Paris This was no easy task, and rewards were not any 100 plentiful. She did. nonetheless, become a highly skilled linotype operator. Then there was Miss Maude L McLaughlin, retired Milford high school English teacher She told us time and again. “I can't retire,” and so she went to work for us on a part time basis, writing, among other things, a weekly column called “News and Views " She never failed to write

a biting, compelling column and had a real army of followers. Printers’ ink got into her blood, too. and she loved it. Early on in television history she was featured on Tommy Bartlett's “Welcome Travelers” television show beamed out of Chicago. Flora Overstead tried her hand for a number of years at news writing and did an equally good job. She worked here between hitches as a school teacher. But there were so many others. Hattie Becker was a real trooper on the from desk when she was badly needed, and it turned out she was a very fine writer. Our debt to these few and many others is great and will never be fully paid. — AEB Heat's on — (Continued from page 1) such program pell mell. In response to member Knispel's request for a prioritylist. clerk-treasurer Betty Dust said the previous town board did that and advised this board to do the same for a subsequent board. Mr Farber was told to use R & S funds for storm sewer work Attorney Reed said the engineering for grading on Boston street was done about five years ago. Farber said the four existing catch basins on Boston street all need repairs He added that a storm sewer line would have to go down the center of Boston street, and that it would be torn up for at least a year until the street could be replaced Farber got board approval to spend S3OO to grade Chicago Avenue from Bud's Body Shop to the creek, work to be done, by Phend & Brown of Milford. Police Business Police chief Ron Robinson said the back seat and cage of the police car were damaged by an unruly patron two weeks ago. but that steps were being taken to recover damages He also received permission to use the town pick-up to take dogs to the Warsaw pound. He said he took a full load over Tuesday morning A pointed question concerning the funding of the new towntownship ambulance was raised, and how to pay for it with federal revenue sharing funds. Turkey Creek township trustee Roy Price was present to state the township's case He said the unit would go into use Friday, but not officially until June 14. He said a $35 minimum charge, or $1 per mile, would be made, with a $5 charge for oxygen He said the unit “should pay its own way." Board member Carl Myrick asked how it was to be funded until revenues came in from billings. The clerk-treasurer's office will handle billings, the board pointed out. Price estimated from 50 to 60 per cent of all billings would be paid, according to information he received from Charles Harris of the Harris funeral home. Attorney Reed told the town board they should meet with the trustee and their respective attorneys within the next two weeks to iron out the financial arrangements of operating the ambulance Betty Dust told the board she was expecting a letter from the state within a few days confirming a telephone conversation to the effect that township federal revenue sharing funds were also town funds, since the town is part of the township And herein lies the knotty problem of how the new ambulance will be paid. Board president Darrell Gnsamer showed the board a field examiner s report on town hooks, that they were in "good condition." and the board and clerk treasurer Dust said they were thankful for the report.
