Milford's Main Street

THESE CAULIFLOWER were grown in the garden of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Haney on r 2 Milford. Mrs. Haney is holding the largest of the three. It weighs eight and three-quarter pounds. The one on the left tipped the scales at an even eight pounds while the one on the right tvent 5*2 pounds. These are just a few more examples of the large produce grown in area gardens this fall. —o— Qy) have a nice weekend... 7/11 •■•• *Q [give thanks] LAST WEEK this paper featured a photo of Children’s Book Week with posters made by Diane Coppes and Dawn Speicher. Dawn was listed as the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ned Speicher which is correct, however, Diane was listed as the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Todd. This is not correct. Diane is the daugher of Mr. and Mrs. James Kidd. —oTHE NORTHERN Lakes Conference is really big news these days. Goshen won the state AA football championship over the week end when the Redskins defeated Brownsburg 9-0 Friday night. In winning the title, the Redskins set a record that should hold for some time. In three playoff games, no one was able to score on them. s Our hats are off to the Redskins!

THEN WE have the Concord High School band. Its members are in New York where they will be featured at 9 a.m. on the preparade show. They will later be seen as they march down the parade route in the Macy Thanksgiving Day parade. -O’SIGNS OF spring still appear, even though it snowed here Monday evening and has remained cold. Beverly Casper of West Emeline Street in Our Town found a mushroom in her yard on Tuesday. How about that!

By the way, for those of our readers who are in Florida, the weatherman says it will be 50 degrees and sunny again this week end. Not bad for the end of November. -o“THANKSGIVING IS one of the happiest days of the year with its family gatherings, happy fellowship, church services, delicious dinners and other things which lift us for the time being above the common place things of life.” So begins a front page item in the Hilltop Hi-Lite, the Christian Church paper from Athens, Ga.

Wed., November 22,1978 —THE MAIL-JOURNAL

The paper goes on to say, “The Israelites celebrated Thanksgiving as early as 1400 B.C. it was known as Pentecost. Our Thanksgiving Day began in 1621 — Governor Bradford called the people together and with some neighboring Indians celebrated even though half their number had died and the crops were poor.” In America today we have so much to be Thankful for, not just on Thanksgiving, but every day of the year. It is, however, fitting and proper that we should pause in this busy world to say thanks ...thanks to everyone for everything, big or small, important or not so important. Thanks. —o— HOW ABOUT those Warriors! They are 2-0 for the season, defeating both Carroll and Fairfield. We can't help but wonder if those green suspenders being sold by the Warrior Boosters are the reason. At any rate Warrior Coach Mike Jones and his team seem to have a good thing going. —o— MEMBERS OF Our Town’s religious community gathered last night (Tuesday) at the elementary school for the Thanksgiving program. School officials, town board members, EMTs, Service Clubs, MAD and the press were all representated and thanked for their contributions to the community. A musical program was presented with representatives from the several churches participating. Included was the reading of the 1863 proclamation of Abraham Lincoln, establishing Thanksgiving Day. —O'SWAP DAY proves to be popular with students and parents alike (see feature elsewhere in this issue of the bossman’s experience at WHS). Some students swapped with those who took their place while others simply enjoyed a day off school as someone swapped with them. In the case of Dorene Rosenberry of r 2 Milford, a WHS sophomore, she swapped with her father, Larry. As Mr. Rosenberry spent the day at Wawasee, Dorene spent the day at W’arsaw

Transmission, holding down her father’s job. -oTHEY HAVE a lot of happy kids at the Milford Junior High School today as the results of the hard work they put into this year’s candy sales. Principal Marion Acton reports the sales totaled $8,847, far above sales from previous years. Amy Bucher was named top salesperson with sales totaling $763. Albert Stricklin and Bob Hapner each sold almost SSOO worth of candy. All three were awarded bicycles. In previous years the high was $3lB. In all, some 30 youngsters were awarded prizes for their participation in the candy sales. The fifth grade sold the largest amount of candy with their sales totaling $4,536. Members of the sixth grade class sold $1,923 worth of candy while the seventh grade sold $1,419 worth of candy and the eighth grade sold $968 worth of candy. Acton said profits go to the school’s extra curricular program. Plan before planting If you are thinking of adding some landscape trees and shrubs to your yard or grounds, remember that planning as well as planting is important. Proper planting helps insure success, but planning entails selecting trees and shrubs that will fit the scale of the lot, grow well, and look right. Some tips on planning, when to plant, how to plant, where to plant, and care of the newly planted tree or shrub are contained in Cooperative Extension Service publication HO-100. For a copy, check with your county extension office or write to mailing room AGAD building Purdue University, West Lafayette, Ind. 47907. Single copies are; free to Indiana residents. When requesting a copy by mail, be sure to write your name and address legibly. This publication also carries a list of other extension publications dealing with pruning, plants for problem areas, and disease and insect problems. These may also prove useful to the homeowner.
