In the photo, taken by MJ staff member Mary Jane Lorton, Randy Veach, on the ground, and William Hyden, on the lift truck, stretch one of the decorations across Milford's Main Street. IT S GOOD to have Ray and Kay Dimick back in our community. The Dimicks. along with daughter, Kris, a Wawasee High School junior, moved back to Milford last Thursday. Their older daughter, Shanna, who is employed in the clerktreasurer’s office in the town hall, remained in Milford when her family moved to Grant, Ala., last July. The Dimicks reportedly just missed any of the effects of last week's tornado which hit Huntsville, Ala. — approximately 20 miles from Grant.

The family is presently residing in the Jack McClintic home, located on the corner of Emeline and West streets. AN ARRANGEMENT of black balloons (30. in fact) were delivered last Friday, Nov. 17, to Kim Owen of North Main Street.

Its water is of the best, indicating healthfulness. Its society is very congenial, making a pleasant home. Its business men hustlers, making a good class to come among. Its newspaper alive and loyal to home interests; besides we have good graded schools, good churches and civic societies, two band organizations, orchestras and other musical talent, two home loan and building associations, enabling any one. rich or poor, to build a home here and pay for it as rent ; a great inducement to men with families to get a home. Real estate property is a good investment yet not high; rents reasonable. To encourage any new enterprize to come, its citizens w ill do the right thing. "All kinds of mercantile business is well represented. There are a number of prosperous enterprises in manufacturing, and some very valuable and new inventions. Among them are the Neff pneumatic water system, so that private residence can have water all over the house, and fire protection as well. All supply tanks are under ground, and automatically regulated with a common wind engine. It is a wonder of the age. "The Baugher shaft coupler as a device to do away with bolts and burs in making a quick shift of buggy pole to shaft, or vice versa, a thing that commends itself.
