school at North Wood. Last Saturday, Tim was spotted at the District 25-G Lions Banner Night Festivities. He is currently serving as president of the Wakarusa Lions Club and reports all is well with his wife and children.

KENNETH HANEY, 84, expressed his elation over the great turnout of visitors attending the fourth and final tour of his woods last Friday, Saturday and Sunday. During the three days, the Hastings’ resident reports that

nearly 110 persons enjoyed the “Walnut Acres Tour” in his woods, located southwest of Milford.

nearly 110 persons enjoyed the “Walnut Acres Tour” in his woods, located southwest of Milford. This was the final tour of Haney’s scenic wooded area (a classified forest) as a harvesting of the woods is scheduled for next year. MILFORD SCHOOL Principal Russ Mikel and his wife, Pat, hosted a hog roast for approximately 70 faculty and staff members and their spouses on Saturday evening, Oct. 8, in their woods — just southeast of town. Since Principal Mikel’s 36th birthday (it seems he’s been 31 years old for so long!) just happened to also be on Saturday, the Milford School office staff along with Cindy Kaiser, vice principal, and Carol Landrigan, elementary teacher, planned to present him a special gift that evening. To Mr. Mikel’s great surprise, the gift turned out to be the appearance of the area’s wellknown celebrity, Laverne, Laverne! Laverne, Laverne entertained the group by revealing many “secrets” about the honored guest —a couple of which included: many of his problems are created because he attended Purdue University; and persons can tell when he’s only kidding because his mustache twitches! For sure, this will be one birthday the Milford principal won’t forget! x —o— SOME 200 tickets had been sold as of last Saturday for the MADsponsored banquet to honor members of the Milford Emergency Medical Services, both past and present.

There are a number of people in this area who are thankful for the work of the EMS. The following letter arrived at The MJ office this week and is reprinted here as a special tribute to those people in our community who go above and beyond the call of duty: “I would just like to write in to show my deep appreciation to the Milford EMS for all it did for me by saving my life. I am very thankful that you didn’t give up on me. “My family appreciated the telephone contact you kept with them, and the quick arrival to our home. We were all grateful for the concern you had for my family and myself, not to mention the additional concern you still had for me during my cqptinued stay in the hospital. “I will always treasure the bear you gave me. It really showed me you did and still do care about me. “I will always be grateful for everything you did for me. Thank you, and God bless you all. — Sincerely, Amy Jodry” If you haven’t purchased your banquet tickets yet, please do so immediately. —o— A CHILI supper and the annual community Halloween party has been slated for Saturday, Oct. 29, according to chairman Dennis Wuthrich, a member of the Lions club who is serving as chairman of the event, and an informational flyer being distributed by co-sponsor Campbell’s IGA. The event will take place in the grocery store’s parking lot with the chili supper being served from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. The supper is free with donations received being given to the Milford Emergency Medical Service. There will be a cake decorating contest and the annual costume judging will begin at 7 p.m. with prizes in a number of categories. Other details are incomplete at this time. But Chairman Wuthrich promises more details later. For now all we can say is that Milford area residents should keep the 29th open for the annual festivities. —o— THIS NEWSPAPER received a letter from Berniece Dwyer who is once again off on an Hawaiian vacation. She reports United’s flight 47 was non-stop from Chicago to Honolulu and touched down eight hours and 48 minutes after leaving O’Hare with 225 people on board. She found 88 degree temperatures in Honolulu with bright sun and soft winds from the northeast. “It was great to be back in Hawaii! again!” she notes. —o—
