It happened...in Milford

16 YEARS AGO, JUNE 2,1676 . Despite the threatening skies and rain later in the day, the Milford Area Development council’s activities and American Legion-sponsored parade and service at the cemetery were very successful last Monday. The parade was one of the largest ever on Memorial Day in Milford and a large number of persons lined the streets to watch the units go past. Floyd Rheinheimer, M.D., of Milford, has completed continuing education requirements to retain active membership in the

By VIC TREE Guest Feature Writer ‘ The horses come first in this household,” say Bill and Dianne Roberts of Goshen. This freelance writer discovered this was true as their interview was put on bold while they tended to the horses. Fortunately, they- son Jim, 23, was home on leave from the Army’s Special Forces. He offered bites of fresh salmon he had caught in Lake Michigan the day earlier, soda pop and conversation as we waited. Daughter Kim, 21, a cosmetologist, was not at home. Sheri, 19, enjoys singing and drag racing and resides near Atlanta, Georgia. Sixteen-year-old Wendy likes swimming and is employed at Arby’s. Carrie, at the age of eight, is a true horse lover and has many ribbons to show for it. “Travel, fun, enjoyment and the friendships established from the shows,” is what the Roberts love best about the Arabian horse business. Dianne andßill agreed on this one thing, it’s the glory of winning and the agony of defeat

Flag disposal ceremony

The Kosciusko County Council of American Legion Posts will conduct a flag disposal Ceremony on the southwest corner of the Court House Square in Warsaw at 1 p.m. Sunday, June 8. Warsaw Mayor Jeff Plank will attend and make introductory comments. Local citizens and businesses are showing an increasing willingness to display ‘Old Glory,’ but there is confusion about the proper disposal of worn and unserviceable U.S. flags. The purpose of the disposal ceremony is to give these symbols of freedom a dignified retirement. Anyone wishing to dispose of an old flag may do so by leaving it at any of the cohnty’s American Legion Posts or by taking it to the ceremony. New flags may be purchased at these locations as well. The city council, consisting of American Legion Posts in Warsaw, Milford, Syracuse, North Webster, Pierceton, Silver Lake and Mentone, represents nearly

has unique love for horses

that is the best part. Looking around their roomy farmhouse, one doesn’t need spectacles to see that this family revolves around its horses. Every place an eye could rest is a statue sculpted in plastic, clay or bronze. Stacks of magazines hide in one of the spacious first floor closets. From the tiny horse bead etched on the lower corner of Dianne’s eyeglasses to the bold printed ‘Arabian Horse’ on Bill’s gray corduroy cap, this couple obviously share a unique love for horses. We made our way across the yard to a huge, white barn and a new smell that was a cross between wet diapers and show horses. The warm, comfortable office radiated horses and while Bill was busy throwing nieces and nephews into the pile of sawdust, we watched over the fragrance of cedar and coffee through the window that revealed a 60 foot by 132 foot indoor arena. Dianne says Arabian horses are distinctively different from other breeds. This appears in skeleton, conformation and intelligence. To be more exact,

Arabians are highly specialized products of the desert. The bloodline is vital to an Arabian’s pedigree. A good bloodline The Roberts came up with the name “Desert Head Arabians” for their spread in the same manner they; name their horses. Desert because they originated there, Head due to the fact they have beautiful ones, and Arabians is self-explanatory, should and could be traced back to the desert. All 15 of theirs do and one is a descendant of General Patton’s horse that was imported from Poland. ‘“The Spirit of the Desert’ is what you would be looking for if you were searching for a good Arabian,” explains Dianne, “this is evident through a kind of distinctive flair, the way they carry themselves with respect, a different air about them, they are proud of themselves, the romance of the desert.” Azeray, their prize stallion, has all these characteristics and more. He might not bring in the S3O million at which the Arabian stud was syndicated, but if he sires a foal better than he was, then the Roberts certainly will relish in the glory of winning in their breeding endeavors.
