Teacher Takes Tiny Tiger
AS we all know, orphans are
really in search of a foster home.
This rule didn't change much in
the life of Nifty, lovable, w e |
behaved little stray kitten, who has
adopted the Ford family of Milford.
This little feline, at the frisky
age of about five weeks, decided
that it was time to get an educa-
tion. He scampered through h e
doors of Milford High School, up
three flights of stairs and n o
the room No. 312, all completely
unnoticed. Nifty was apt to be the
best book learnin' kitten" in His
tory This was the room of M r.
Marion Ford, senior English teach
er.
This little grey, yellow an d
brown kitten captured the heart of
Mr.. Ford. who was busy directing
the publication of the Milfordian
Scholastic kittens need disting-
uished names and what could be
more proper than Nifty, named in
honor of the Milfordian.
Nifty has a family now. A n a
Lynn, age a; Dougie, 21a; and
Ricky, 11a have decided that Nifty
is here to stay. The Ford family
is complete with contented Mil
fly, the tiny tiger of Chestnut Knoll
Acres.
Who Needs Education
Who needs education? The per-
son who needs education is the one
who wants to be successful and
get the most out of life. Qualities
of the educated man are those
which. almost everyone tries o
achieve.
What are these qualities? They
are that he is a lover of beauty,
he gets along easily with people,
and he's ready to learn He is bet
ter equipped to take his place in
community life because he can ad-
vance further in his chosen work,
and he is likely to earn more.
Here in America there are free
public schools, colleges. etc. Even
if knowledge is self-taught it is
important to have.
Remember: Education is m or e
than learning, it is a way of life.
