The Grove family formerly lived in Milford. Todd’s grandmother, Mrs. Elaine Hall, is still a resident of Our Town and as you might guess, she is proud of Todd and of all his brothers too. , —o— DON’T FORGET the CPR course planned by MAD for

August 28 and 29 in the Apostolic Christian Church’s fellowship hall. Persons wanting more information should contact Kerry Price or Bruce Bultemeier. —o—- / IS EVERYONE ready?

The golf season is not over — however, the bowling season is starting. How does one golf at 4 p.m. and bowl at 6:45? It’s possible and our guess is many will try it even though the schedule would be a tight one. —O'SPEAKING OF golf, today is a big day for the Lions of the area as neighboring Syracuse is hosting the annual 25G Lions golf

Generic labeling

By PATRICIA M. BRAMAN Extension Agent, Home Ec Getting back to basics may mean change in your pockets. After we have been lured by sane, labels with pretty colors, pictures, and recipes, generic labeling is being introduced in our supermarkets. Generic labeling is also called “no-frills,” “no-name.” or plain-wrap." These unadorned items pass on to the consumer what they save in promotion, fancy packaging, and advertising. The main appeal of generic labeled products seems to be savings which vary from item to item. But the savings may be as much as 30 per cent. Truck missing Melvin J. Slabaugh, 306 E. Boston St., reported to Syracuse police that he parked the company truck, a 1970 red A* ton pickup, in front of the Sportsman’s Bar at 8:45 p.m. Tuesday. When he returned at 11:45 p.m., the truck was gone. It belonged to the Al Construction Co. of Nappanee, owned by Slabaugh and Vernon Burkholder. The vehicle was located later at the home of Burkholder. 62 traffic arrests The Kosciusko County Sheriff ’s Department’s activity report for the month of July has been release by John E. Hammersley.

In accident damage, $109,752 has been estimated with $4,710 in property damages leaving a total of $114,462 in vehicle damages.

outing. Lions from a sevencounty area, including Kosciusko Co., are at Syracuse for the annual event. The Lions from Syracuse are the official hosts with help from past district governor Alex Miller of Warsaw. Miller is the man responsible for starting the tournament. A number of Milford Lions are participating. —oCONGRATULATIONS GO to John Replogle for a job well done. John has coached the Wawasee High School girls softball team for the past four years. He hung up his spikes this past week. John is quick to say, however, that his retirement will not be the end of girls softball at WHS. The team is already entered in the women’s league competition at Goshen for the 1979 season. John is beaming over the fact that three former team members — Tammy Schumn, Phyllis Horvath and Betsy Williams — are members of the Indiana state championship team this year. —o—

One version of a generic labeled product has a simple onecolor label bearing only the name, description of contents, name of processor or retailer, and the net weight. It bears no brand name. The products are standard grade — not fancy or choice. Therefore, the quality may not be consistent in size, color, and maturity. You may buy an acceptable product one time and find it not as good the next time purchased. Although the, quality may not be as good as fancy or choice products, generic labeled products are as wholesome and nutritious as fancy grade A. Most of the generic products offered are items in high demand; beans, applesauce, corn, rice, peanut butter, paper towels, facial tissues, and aluminum foil. In these days of rising inflation, consumers are increasingly concerned about the family food bill. Cutting corners on quality can help lower costs as well as eliminating costly packaging and extensive advertising.
