Cleanup Week In
Milford Nov. 1919

During the week of November II
to 10, the City of Milford trucks
will haul away all trash and rub
bish cleaned up from backyards,
garages, attics, and cellars. All
citizens are asked to cooperate by
removing the piles where rats can
be sheltered and make their homes. |
You will be surprised at how much |
has accumulated since last spring.
November 1S has been set aside
as the day for a unified effort of
kill rats. All stores and industries
are asked to set out poison bats
on that day. If only one or two
places put out bait, rats will mere
/ ly move next door. If everyone
sets out bait, on the same day, good
| results will occur.
Only last year Milford child
lost a finger from a rat bite. Last
week rats were seen in broad day
light trying to climb up a screen.
Nearly everyone hears of cases of
rats biting people while they are
asleep. Let's get rid of them.
The recommended poison bait is
powdered Red Squill, which will not
usually harm any household pets.
Antu is a good rat bait but will
= poison dogs or cats. Therefore it
is recommended to use powdered
Red Squill.
; Arrangements have been made to
have Red Squill in OF. cans at
, the J. H. Humes Hardware Store
and at the Pierce Hardware. A 2
: OF. can of squill will make little
over a pound of rat bait, the mix
ture being l OF. of squill to 8 Ozs
: of meat or other bait.
The squill can be mixed will
/ hamburger, canned or ground dos
/ food, canned fish, poultry mash
! sliced tomatoes or oranges. Tht
mixture can be set around in pat
! ties along runways, or other ikel,
I spots. Dead rats should be dispOs
i ed of daily, and uneaten bats pick
: ed up in two days.
I The Red Squill cans will b
Z available during the week of No
! vember IA to 18 only.

warned to put a muffler on the
truck. Driving another poultry
laden truck at the time was Delbert
Baker, also of FrankfOrd, whose
vehicle was found to be over the
weight limit. Both men remained
at the station until 8:45 p m. and
then started north. Less than half
an hour later Harper was dead.
His death brings the highway toll
in Delaware to SO compared with
CA for the corresponding period OF
last year.
The truck he was driving, police
said, is owned by Harry Landes
who operates the former Eagle
Poultry Company.

wing the resort area of Rehoboth
Beach and the town Of Lewes,
known as the Public Press, with a
sub-head Of Delaware Coast News,
has combined the two names, and
from henceforth will be called ''Ihe

N. 0. EXCHANGE
List of 1875 Changes Publish
ed This Week AS Phone
Work Continues

A list of 1876 new telephone
subscribers or number changes is
published by the Northern Ohio
Telephone Company on page nine
of this weeks edition of the News.
This list should be clipped from
the paper and pasted in the cur
rent phone book, which is in effect
until next July Most of the
changes are in the Sand Road, Ca
tawba West Road area although
there are some from all districts.
AS the Port Clinton telephone
exchange has surpassed the 1000
subscriber total, it has been neceS-
sary to use five digits in all new
numbers. The phone equipment
is capable of handling only 1000
per unit but additions have been
made so that sometime in the fu-
ture all Port Clinton Exchange
phones will be in the five digit
class.
M. F. Luedeke, local exchange
manager, reports that his crew
is now rushing work in Oak Har,
Dor where the exchange will DC
converted to an automatic diaI
system later this month.
In recent weeks, new under
ground cables have been installed
as far as the public school build
ing on Fourth Street as part of
the big project for the sCuth part
of the city.
This project will include all the
southern portion of Port Clinton
and the Bay Shore area to Gyp-
sum-. From 100 to $50 addition
al telephone subscribers will be
added as equipment becomes
available. Mr.. Luedeke expects
to start this project in December
and complete the work next
spring.
Aerial cables will be used south
from the school grounds. More
equipment will also be added in
the phone exchange to care for
the additional numbers.

VETERANS PRAY FOR PEACE AS
ARMlSTICE. DAY IS OBSERVED

For two minutes ON Friday,
November IL, Americans will
stand misunderstanding the sue
cessful endings of the wars the
United States has had to fight
in defense of the institutions that
have made her great.
Nearly 600 veterans of these
wars are employed at Erie Ord
nance Depot, and this week they
reminisced of wartime experienc-
es, discussed observance of Ar
mistice Day, and spoke of pre-
serving our peace.
Many of the 400 veterans of
World War II expressed the
opinion that since We and VI
days were history making dates
there should be special Armistice
observances for them as we'll as
the November II date of World
War I.
However, more homely memor-
les, like where they were and
what they were doing when word
came to clay down arms" domin-
ated conversations of EOD veter-
ans.
Colonel Earl S. Grlver, Com
manding Officer of Erie Ordnance
Depot, although in the Army when
declarations of peace came in both
world wars, remembers most
vividly VE-Day. He was in
Paris, ordnance officer for the
European Theater of Operations.
Paris really celebrated. Streets
were packed with happy people.
There were fireworks, aplenty.
81 was confused and tired, though.
l just went to my quarters and
went to bed, thankful the fight
ing was done," Col. Gruver says.
Charlie Morrison, Bono, Erie
Ordnance Depot's one Spanish
American War veteran, was in the
Philippine Islands when peace
was declared in August of 1898.
He recalls that they celebrated in
a park just outside Manila.
"Our Wave band was practic-
ing, l with it, when news came
to us in Washington that the war
was over in Japan. We shifted
into victory marches, and then
went celebrating, Colleen Clark
Gill, Port Clinton, a former Navy
Wave, recalls.
Ted Elliston, Toledo, a veteran
of World War |, shivers, and no
wonder, when he remembers No
vember II, 1918. An assault SER
geant with the 147th Infantry, he
and his men had just swan the
Scheld River in Belgium. Mr..
Elliston observed Armistice Day
by going to church.
II just thought of home and
my girl friend and how happy
| would be to return, says Eu-
lus Britt, Port Clinton, who had
been liberated from a prisoner of
war camp near Munich just two
days before VE-Day.
Harold Arnold, Port Clinton,
