WhirZs OF Winter

There has been a decided lessen
ing of whirls this week after such
full and busy time the past one.
A party every day and some days
two affairs. Nevertheless they were
all enjoyable and this week we have
had time for reflection and know
that Milford folks do have a good
time. The lovely spring days the
first part of the week made one want
to be in the open and enjoy the Flor
ida variety of sunshine. All the evil
dences of spring were here-robins,
singing frogs and the swelling buds
on the trees and shrubs. Daffodils
made their appearance, too, and it
seemed too bad to coax them out
with the warm weather only to chill
them with the cold east wind that
blew on Wednesday. March and
April are ahead of us, but even so,
we know that spring is just in the
Ofing.
