Many Worthy Causes
Contributed $4,000 To Worthwhile
Organizations During Past Year

Members of the Milford New Cen
tury Club are often asked just what
they stand for and what good they
do for the community. Too many
take the stand that the club is just
for the good of the members, and
that there is little reason for its
being. 1t is nOn-profit organiza-
ton, cultural, standing for any
thing of benefit to Milford and its
surrounding area, educational in its
purpose. The contributions from
the club for the past club year
