WHAT HAPPENS when the bossman (or woman) turns 70? You hold a surprise birthday party, of course. MJ co-publisher Arch Baumgartner will observe his 70th birthday on Thursday, Oct. 1. So ... last Thursday the entire staff of The Papers Incorporated held a birthday party at the end of the work day to honor this three score plus 10 event. Was he surprised? Yes indeed! The 100 plus staff members who knew what was going on all kept the secret and AEB was surprised. Rich Rhodes served as MC for the event with Arch being presented tape recorded messages from the staff members in the Warsaw, Goshen and Elkhart offices (after all, you can't completely close an office even for the bosses’ birthday). There was also given a giant social security check in honor of his 70th year, a tree full of “interesting” and extremely

“useful” gifts, a card signed by the entire staff, a special edition front page of The M-J and a black and white and re(a)d decorated birthday cake. And, a poem, the ABC’s of AEB and other creative writing skills were put to test in his honor. 4 IF OUR readers know anyone who has several coins missing from their coin collection, we might have news for them. A Milford reader, who wishes anonymity at this point, found a 1942 nickel and a 1964 dime enclosed in cardboard as if they were a part of a collection. On top of that, the party found a 1962 and 1958 cardboard which apparently had a silver dollar taken from them. Is it possible these coins and cardboard enclosures were pilfered from someone’s coin collection? If anyone has this problem, or knows of anyone who does, contact The Mail-Journal, we might be of help.

MEMBERS OF the Milford Fire Department will hold their annual chicken barbecue on Sunday, Oct. 4, as National Fire Prevention Week gets underway. The event is carry-out only. Purchasing chicken from the firemen is a good way to thank them for serving the community and proceeds help to purchase needed equipment for the department. Besides, it’s a day when the woman of the house (or the man) doesn’t have to cook. MRS. ARTHUR Haab of Goshen, Mrs. Elmer Haab, Miss Florence Stieglitz and Miss Edith Baumgartner of Milford, ate lunch in a Nappanee restaurant on a recent Tuesday. Later they called at a nursing home in Bremen to visit Mrs. Mary Good and Mrs. Herman Hueni. Mrs. Arthur Haab gave Mrs. Good a crock filled with flowers and Halloween ornaments. Mrs. Good, who is in her 90s, is

formerly from Milford ant the mother of Melba Hunsberger of r 1 Milford. The group also called on Mrs. Anna Sehuch of Bremen. A stop was made on the way home for ice cream. The lunch and the treat were compliments of Mrs. Arthur Haab. OCTOBER BIRTHDAYS at the Lakeland Loving Care Center will be celebrated by Julia May, Oct. 3; Mary Orn, Oct. 8; Hulda Graff, Oct. 14; Bernice Yoder, Oct. 16; and John Stone, Oct. 31.
