EACH SUMMER brings reunions, family get-togethers and high school classess holding outings. They come and go with little notice except for those involved and a new item and/or photo published in the newspaper. The 25-year reunion of the class of 1958 of Milford High School was held last Saturday in Warsaw and memories came rushing back as we visited with classmates we hadn't seen for a number of years.

Roser of North Manchester and Bernie Beer of Nappanee for the success of the event. They served as co-chairmen for the evening. The class motto proved to be true 25-years later — “What we are to be. We are now becoming.” The class will was read as were the who’s who and what 1 remember most about MHS — all taken from the 1958 Trojanette, all long forgotten over the years. Did we really feel that way 25 years ago? Twenty-five years is a long time but it seems like yesterday.

Much has happened since we received our diplomas Most of us have married, some are now grandparents. Many of us settled in the Milford area. Some moved out of state ?nd only get back to Milford on rare occasions. Photos from school days and recent photos of class members with their families were mounted on black posterboard, and tables were decorated with yellow roses and black and silver ribbons, the class flower and colors. We've been lucky, only one of our classmates has died — Gary Chambers. He died October 12, 1978, just a few months after the 20th anniversary meeting of the class. He was not forgotten as we paused for a moment of silent prayer in his honor. They’ve torn down our old stomping grounds but we have each other and we have our memories. Those will last forever. And, in another five years we’ll get together again to compare notes — who has the most grandchildren, who has been married the longest, who still lives in Milford, who traveled

Sherri Beer of r 2 had the reserve champion Chester White gilt, Jeff Stookey of r 1 had the champion Yorkshire gilt and Jon Haab of r 1 had the reserve Hamshire gilt. Congratulations to these and the other 4-H club members who did an outstanding job at the fair. AND, SPEAKING of barrows, we have just learned Mr. and Mrs. Howard Beer of Milford are donating a hog to the emergency medical service for the hog roast. This is the third year in a row that the Beers have donated an animal to the EMS. This leaves the organization only one hog short of its four-hog goal for the fund-raising project. The event has been switched this year from a Saturday to Sunday, Aug. 21, to allow people to dine out after church. Serving will begin at 11:30 a.m. in the community building and will continue until sold out. Carry-outs will be available.

clude: the Intuition Mime Company; the Treble Makers Barbershop Quartet; Milo Max the Juggler; and Walter O’Neil, court jester. For the children, acts include a magician, puppets and marionettes, and a folk musician. Each afternoon during the fourday event, a style show of fall fashions from the House Across the Street and musical reviews from the Enchanted Hills Playhouse will be presented. Consider costs of operation Appliances account for 20 to 30 per cent of the energy used in a home. Since a television is an appliance, it should be turned off whenever it is not being used. When buying a television, remember that a smaller screen uses less energy, and a black-and-white television uses less than a color television. Many televisions on the market have an “instant on’’ feature. Even when the television is turned off, the television is using energy. To save energy, disconnect the television set when it is not being used for extended periods of time. For more information, contact the Indiana Energy Hotline at 1-800-382-4631.
