Milford chronicle., 1919-10-31

Mr.. FarIow, manager of the electric
light crew, was injured last Tuesday
when a telephone pole struck him.
Electric Lights Now Burning
Be not impatient when you find facts
difficult TO ascertain. This is a motto
that we must keep in mind when we
wonder why the east side of town is
not lighted As a matter of fact, the
railroad company is somewhat slow in
signing the right of way for the Delco-
Light men. Anyway, we are glad that
the dynamoes are here and that the
west side of town is lighted much to
our satisfaction.
Red Men Initiate Many Palefaces
On Monday evening, October 9th.
there was heard near the post Office
the cries and yells of the Red Men.
As George E. Reed, one of the hard
est working Red Men in the State, had
gotten eleven new members for Ioka
Tribe, No. 35, it seemed very certain
to the casual observer that something
was going to transpire in the Red
Mems Hall after hearing these cries
and yells of the visiting members of
the Milford team. 1t was, however. a
very impressive sight when these Wis 4
iting friends initiated our new mem
bers. 1t was said by those persons
who had witnessed limitations pre-
viously that the Milford tribe did the
best work that they had ever seen.
After comforting the degrees and
quenching the council fires, refresh
ments were served in abundance. We
would also like to say that our hard
worker, George Reed, has been offer
ed the position of the Deputy Great
Sachem. Three cheers for Ioka Tribe
and for Brother Reed.
