Another wonderful program

Throughout the summer months there have been pictures in The Mail-Journal of the Little League baseball teams and their coaches and managers, making all of us aware of the fine job these adults are doing with the boys and girls. Teaching them about sportsmanship and keeping their bodies physically fit. We have another wonderful program for the boys and girls here in Milford, at the public library. Miss Grove and Mrs. Brunjes helped all to find enjoyment through reading. This summer, there were over 100 children enrolled in the “Busy Little Bee” reading program. At the end of the program, the children involved were treated to a party consisting of film and cookies and punch. Mrs. Brunjes gives a lot of time and love for the little readers downstairs in the children’s section. There are always books, on display, on several subjects. Something for everyone, whatever their interest might be. She remembers if a certain child has a favorite author or is looking for a particular book. From October thru May, there is a story hour every Saturday afternoon for the boys and girls. Each week, Mrs. Brunjes treats the children to films, stories, LAKELAND LOCAL Mr. and Mrs. James Wolf, Atwood, entertained Tuesday evening at supper for the birthday anniversaries of their daughter Pam, daughter-in-law Nancy Wolf and son-in-law Steve Collins. Others present were Joe Wolf and children, Mrs. Steve Collins, Marvin Klinger, all of Atwood; Mr. and Mrs. Herman Miller, Milford; parents of Mrs. Jim Wolf. Homemade ice cream and decorated birthday cake in honor of all three was served later in the evening.

Mrs. Donald (Monica) Bice and Keith Max Ivans family staying with the Warren Evanses On August 7, at 1:20 p.m., the home of Mr. and Mrs. Max Evans and children was destroyed by fire. As of this time the Evans’ are not sure what they are going to do about rebuilding. Mrs. Evans stated they are taking their time deciding and have not made any final decisions. The Evans’ have lived at the corner of First and Maple Streets in Milford since 1967 and over the years have made some changes to the home that was destroyed. Mr. Evans stated that the interior had been completely remodeled by Mr. Evans over the years and he had also put mew siding on the house about two years ago. Commenting about the fire Mrs. Evans said, “We were thankful the kids weren’t there to get hurt. We lost a dog, but you can always get a new dog where as the kids you can’t.” The Evans family is currently staying in the home of Mr. Evans’ parents, Mr. and Mrs. Warren Evans of Milford.

Milford's Main Street

OUR PHOTO this week is one we found in the files. It shows the two buildings which were recently demolished when they were stately business houses and when the drug store was flourishing on Main Street. The drug store offered a little of everything and is remembered by a number of Milford’s senior citizens. —o— WE RECEIVED a telephone call from the athletic department of Indiana Central College telling us of two young men from the Lakeland community who will be returning to Central’s football squad this fall. One of the team members is Dave Wollman who has been a starter on the team for the past two years, playing defensive end. The coach we talked to reminded us of the fact Dave holds the national shot put championship. Dave is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Bill Wollman of Our Town. The second former Warrior on the team is field goal kicker Ralph Reiff of the North Webster area. —O'neighbors OF Max and Marlene Evans have informed us they have started a savings account at the bank and have cans in the grocery stores so those who want may help the Evanses replace items lost in their fire last week. —oTHIS AVID baseball fan was

Speaking of the Chambers, they have been entertaining their grandchildren, Angela and Jeremy Chambers of Seymour, for the past couple of weeks. —o7 A FEW weeks back we noted that Angie Beer, who has a host of relatives in the Milford area, won the Elkhart County Fair Queen title. Now we are happy to report she finished as fourth runner-up in the state competition. Many area residents had a chance to view the competition on television last Sunday night. —o— A NUMBER of agriculture people from Nationalist China were in our area last week, at the same time a group was here from the mainland country, to tour the hog and poultry industry establishments in the area. They were at Chore-Time on Friday and posed for a photo, found elsewhere in this issue. —o— WHEN WE listed persons helping at the county fair we forgot to mention Mary Orn, the senior citizen's queen. She helped hand out prizes given to senior citizens by area merchants on Senior Citizen’s Day. Mary said she was very thankful for the support the Milford merchants gave to the special day and wanted them to know her feelings. When she goes to Indianapolis on Friday for the state senior queen competition Mary will have her own cheering section.

Planning to make the trip with her will be members of her family — Mr. and Mrs. Harry Orn and Brent of Tucson. Ariz.; Elizabeth Steinke of South Bend; « Mrs. Dale Stump of Milford; William Orn of Dunlap: Mr. and Mrs. Darrell Orn of Milford; and Mrs. William Pierce of Phoenix. Ariz. This group includes all of Mrs. Orn’s children except daughter Gwendolyn (Mrs. Randall Dewart) of Hickory, S. C. The Dewarts were in Milford a short time ago and extended their well wishes at that time. Son Darrell will serve as escort during the festivities. By the way, son Harry, a Christian Church minister, will be delivering the sermon Sunday evening at the Milford Christian Church. Service time is at 7 p.m. and all are welcome to hear this former Milford resident. —o—'MR. AND Mrs. Brian Wall. Janet, Judy and Stacy of Dewart Lake will be off to the state fair on Monday. When the girls joined 4-H father Brian told them he would take off work and go to the fair if any of them had state fair entries. He’ll keep that promise on Monday as the girls have a total of five projects on display in Indianapolis. —o— HAVE VOU noticed Campbell’s new IGA sign. It’s a big one and presented young Tim Campbell with a problem when it was installed while still in the carton. Tim was seen on the ladder last week removing said carton during a summer shower. -o— SOME RESIDENTS of the area have been taking advantage of the vacant lots at Main and Emeline as they park their cars there during the day.
