Others think it/ an unnecessary step. Whatever your feeling no one can ever take away the memories of the building — memories can never be lost. ..-. Whatever becomes £ of that area, MHS grads who want to will always be able to look at that corner of town and see the old school and remember SPEAKING OF the old school, this reporter found a 1924 Milfordonian the other day and spent a few minutes leafing through its pages.

EDITH CARLIN of Warsaw reports what just might be the first official case of the winter blahs. Oddly enough it comes from Seirra Vista. Ariz.. where Ufr. and Mrs. Seth McFarren of Milford are spending the winter. Seems Edith, who recently hosted a surprise 50th anniversary celebration for the McFarrens along with several others, received a letter from Bernice stating the weather had been in the low 40*s with ram. sleet and even snow. Anyone wishing to drop the McFarrens a note may write to them at Blue Horizon 700. Sierra Vista. THOSE OF our readgis who remember when Lois and Frank Scott resided in Milford or when Paul Kizer was postmaster should appreciate the comment that young Billy Scott, son of Lois and Frank Scott, now of Winona Lake, and grandson of Paul and
Katherine Kizer, now of Florida. had to say about the town he was born in — Milford — on a recent form for our carrier of the week column in ‘the paper.* Fourteen-year-old Billy wrote. “No. I moved to Winona Lake when I was only three months old.” No further comment necessary. WE DON'T know how she does it but Phyllis Beer at J W's has to have the most fantastic memory around. She must know the favorite drink of half the people of Milford. If there were a “best waitress” award Phyllis would undoubtedly be one of the top candidates! , Driver, passengers died after chase A Burket driver and his three passengers, two of whom were from Milford, were arrested at 10 p.m. Friday, Jan. 28. after the driver led Goshen police on a chase, lasting a few blocks.
