DEAN (Ida) Troup gave us a letter this week from her nephew, Tony Troup, who is serving in the US Navy. She thought Tony’s friends might enjoy it and we agree. Notes from the letter follow: “. . it’s hectic around here. Hardly any time to do anything. Anything fun that is! It’s not too bad though. I do study here alot more than I did in high school. Classes from 7:45 a.m. — 4:05 p.m. with an hour lunch and maybe a study hall or two. Then I go eat dinner, come back in civilian clothes and study and do homework until 11 or 12 at night. . About my Naval career, “I enlisted November 28, 1983, went into active duty June 20, 1984. I have finished basic elec-

barbecue

since the last meeting. With further details supplied by Dick Smith, in charge of maintenance, it was learned that a new motor was installed on the furnace. Plans for preventive maintenance were discussed. Following the building report was an update by Don Arnold on the brochures about Milford. They are almost finished and the council is pleased with Tom Hamilton’s layout of it. The highlight on the agenda was the plans for the upcoming Memorial Day Chicken Barbecue. Marci Haab, president, quoted 1,200 chicken halves as being ordered last year. The council agreed upon the same number for this year’s barbecue. Tickets will, again, be sold at the door and are expected to remain at the same price. All proceeds will go toward the support of the community building. Due to last year’s attendance, indoor seating will be provided at the barbecue as well as the traditional carryouts. Preceding the closing of the meeting were the most recent figures on the collective funds raised by the Milford Fire Department and the Milford Area Development council. At present, $7,000 out of the SIO,OOO goal have been secured.

tronics/electricity school, electricians* mates *A* school, and I am currently in the Naval nuclear power school. I graduate this school August 16, 1985. Hopefully 1 can come home for a couple of weeks, then I go to Idaho Falls, Idaho, for six months of prototype training. There I use all the things they have taught me to qualify to run and troubleshoot (fix) an actual running nuclear power plant. “After all that, then I go on a nuclear powered shop —a cruiser or aricraft carrier — and do my job. That’s about it. Oh, I have applied for an NROTC Scholarship too. If I get it, I go to college for four years to get my electrical engineering degree, come back into the Navy as an officer, an ensign. Then I’ll be committed to at least four years active duty . . “ Tony, it should be noted, is the son of Ervin Troup of Milford and the grandson of Dessie Troup. He is a 1984 honors graduate of Wawasee High School.

OBSERVATION: SPRING has sprung in northern Indiana and the flowers are, one by one, beginning to bloom. If one looks, one can see the trees are turning green as the leaves are beginning to open. There’s a special feeling in the air. A feeling that can’t be explained. One that is only felt in

the spring after the weather warms up. Gardens are being planted. Lawns are being raked. Vehicles that have been dirty all winter are being washed. It’s really surprising what temperatures in the 70s can do for people. Spring cleaning is underway. . 1 always manage to create a disaster while trying to clean. I currently don’t think my living room will ever be lived in again. One thing, I’m going to have to find more than 10 minutes at a time to work on the project. At the rate I’m going spring will be

over before I finish the “spring” cleaning. Fireplaces are nice but when it comes to cleaning them ... then this humble scribe decided that after seven years the davenport really should be shampooed .. . Ug! An hour and a half later I decided that was the first and last time for that job. As I cleaned this past weekend I moved furniture, plants and the o like from the living room to the entrance way so I could shampoo the carpet. Please don’t come to

my front door ... you can’t get in. Now I’m down to shampooing the carpet and maybe, just maybe, after the paper’s out I can sneak* home and finish that job too! Then I can start on the entrance and move everything back into the living room. Every year I say this is the last year for me to do spring cleaning and every spring I get this urge to see everything bright and clean and here lam again ... JRS
