THE MILFORD Park Board made the decision a few weeks ago to begin the removal of approximately 10 or 12 trees from the Lakeside park at Waubee Lake. About six of these trees had died over the summer and the others were removed to prevent overcrowding which would have prohibited proper growth of the surrounding trees. This was a problem that had been taking place over several years’ time, commented Bill Stath, park board president. He added that no definite plans were being made at this time to replant, although the possibility was being considered. “A couple of the trees were actually dangerous, so we thought while we had the tree trimmer in there we’d do a thorough job of cleaning out,” Stath went on to say about the four or five dead cottonwoods, the dead mulberry, and the other trees which were removed from the park. Stath assumed that t|ie cottonwoods had probably just died of

old age, since they have a rather short lifespan. Marion Acton, a committee member, ventured a guess on the deaths of the trees as well. He thought perhaps the extremely warm weather in February or March of this year and then the sudden drop in temperature which followed might have played a part in the deaths. SPEAKING OF the Lakeside Park, have you noticed they are putting a new roof on the pavilion? ON A recent trip from Brown County, one M-J staffer made a stop at the Ball State University campus in Muncie to visit a friend and ran into Milford’s own Ross Dahlstrom. Ross’ roommate from Nappanee, Mike Wagner, wasn’t home at the time, so the Milford resident kindly directed Mike’s visitors to the university library where his roommate was studying.

When asked if he had any messages to send home, Ross said, “Ya, you can tell everyone to send money.” EDITH BAUMGARTNER continues to provide us with tid bits on doctors who practiced in Our Town in years past. Dr. Forrest J. Young was here before the 19205. His office was located where Pat Speicher now has his insurance office. He helped erect the huge stone on the library grounds in 1925, she notes. His wife, Jessie (McDonald) Young, was one of the most accomplished pianists in Milford. < An adopted daughter, Frances, s was also an accomplished pianist and went to live with the doctor’s relatives in Ohio after the parents died. Mrs. Young’s niece. Mrs. Jessie Boyer, lives on West Catherine Street in Milford. A

nephew. Jack McDonald, lives in Goshen. She also noted more information on the Bensons — after Dr. Benson’s death, his wife. Alpha (Banta) Benson, taught German and Latin at Milford High School. Their daughters, Helen and Grace, also taught in Milford. Dr. Emmanuel Stockberger was also a Milford doctor. The family lived in the home on Fourth Street where former postmaster Paul Kizer and his wife and family resided when they lived in the town of Milford. Mrs. Stockberger was a violinist at Milford Methodist
