SAFETY COUNCIL NOTES
SCHOOL DAYS are here again!

SCHOOL DAYS are here again!
Motorists, the National Safety
Council reminds you that the open
ing of school demands extra care
on the part of the driver.
Watch out for youngsters! A
tragedy that may change your life
and the life of some family can
happen in the wink of an eye!
INDIAN SUMMER is just flip
of the calendar away, and with it
the cool nights that will make you
begin to think of filling the coal
bin.
And it's also the time to think of
protecting your home against fire,
the National Safety Council warns.
Right now, before cold weather ar
rives, is the time to check the con-
dition of your furnace and Chin
neys, and make necessary repairs.
HOUSEWIVES-If cleaning cur
tains and drapes is on your list of
fall housecleaning jobs, don't run
the risk of cleaning them at home
with naphtha or gasoline.
The National Safety Council says
that despite repeated warnings,
home cleaning accidents still claim
many victims every year. For
cleaning at home, use only nom
explosive and non-inflammable
fluids.
HOW MUCH do accidents hurt
the defense program?
Well, listen to this! The labor
lost by workers killed and injured
in traffic alone during the first sew
en- months of this year could have
)uilt 10000 fighter planes, or $4,000
light tanks, or twelve battleships!
That's why President Roosevelt !
las asked the National Safety
Council to speed defense by stop
ping accidentsl That's why he |
lsked every citizen in public or
private capacity to help.
So enlist now for safety. Drive
afely e. work safely play
afely! Our first defense job is
o hold the accident front!

is an unusual number of boys

parts this fall. 1 hope each of
you appreciate the opportunity
that they have and really give
thanks for the same. Many
boys are in camp, many girls
find It necessary to be about

particularly fortunate that they
can have higher education.
Several friends in town re-
ceiyed invitations to the we'd

Mrs. Carolyn B. Lewis, of Pas

place on October 8. The bride
is Miss Jean Clark, also of
Passaic. They visited Slaugh-
ter Beach last summer and
their hosts had an opportunity
to see what a fine boy Bob had
become and what a lovely girl,
a.registered nurse, Miss Clark
was. Bob spent his childhood
here at the Lewis home on
Kings Highway. He now has
a responsible position with the

Someone has suggested that
1t. would be fitting if there
could be a central registry of
all of the Milford boys who are
in camp throughout the east, or
any place else for that matter.
The information would be in-sy

letter or two might find its way

now but where they are is not

be interested enough to make a
survey and report their find

AS Hudl SeI-lOSeJueIs mFS.
Willard r. Pierce entertained a
group of ladies who have been
meeting together this summer
at Slaughter Beach at her cot
tage on Friday of last week.
Her guests were Mrs. Carl AL
len, Mrs. Thomas Simpson,
Mrs. Herman johnson, Mrs.
William Watson, Mrs. George
Macklin, Mrs. Henry Coleman
and Mrs. George H. Draper.
Over the weekend some of them
left for their winter homes and
by another week or two all will
have left their cottages for an
other season.
Today is the birthday of Mrs.
Sadie Mccoy Wilson, who is
quietly celebrating her ninety
second milestone at her home
on West Second street. Still
active in mind and body, greet
ing friends still in her cordial
way, she is typical of what
most of us would like to be
should we live to see the nine
ties. Hearty congratulations
go to this long resident of Mil
ford, who is fortunate in hav-
ing her daughter, Miss Ann
Wilson and her son, John Nc
Coy Wilson, with her to help
in the festivities.
Another birthday celebra-
tion, a contrast in ages, will be
that of Frances 'Pettyjohn,
whose parents are giving her a
dance at the Rehoboth Country
Club on Friday evening. Be-
tween forty and fifty boys and
girls are expected and a good
time is in prospect. 1t is Fran
ces' fifteenth birthday. What a
happy age and so much to be
done about it!
Mr.. and Mrs. W. o. Lankford
have recently built an out-of-
doors fireplace and have been
enjoying it, and sharing their
pleasure with friends. Last
week Mr.. Landlords business
associates were their guests
and on last night they had more
in for a steak supper at six
forty-five, when the shadows
were lengthening and the lawn
in back of their home was cool
er. Those present. beside the
family, were DR.. and Mrs. Clyde
Nelson, Mr.. and Mrs. Herman
Johnson, Mr.. and Mrs. Alfred
Lupien, Mrs. F. Burgette Short
and Robert March.
Mrs. Brown Thawley enter
tains the Sewing Circle today.
1t is too bad that the day is so
warm, but this group of grand
people will likely forget the
heat and just enjoy again being
together and catching up with
the news of each others week.
Much can be forgotten with
congenial friends.
This seems to cover all the
notes l have in my book which
continually lays on my desk
awaiting your call to tell me
Of what interests you and your
friends. Let's make an entry in
It, shall we?
Always the same,
