Delaware Flag Flies On High
school Campus
The citizens of Milford can see,
as they pass Milford High School,
the Delaware State flag flying op-
posite the American Flag. This has
been made possible by the members
of the graduating class of 1859.
The moneys that were left in
escrow by the classes of 1858 and
1859 for the purpose of purchasing
gifts for the school have been used
to purchase the Delaware State
flag, the pole on which it flies, and
the shrubbery around the pole. Two
red dogwoods have also been
placed on the south campus.
All members of the classes of
1858 and 1859 are urged to stop by
the school to see these new addi-
tions to their Alma Mater campus,
and. you should be proud that you
had hand in making this possible.
