"Iluibank Ceiling zero, visibility visibili-ty zero; Milford ceiling unlimited, unlimit-ed, visibility 35 miles; .Salt Lake ceiling zero, visibility zero". This wus the report going out to all aircraft air-craft and other weather stations Tuesday morning from K C A T, local airways radio station Showing in unmistakable manner the relative clarity of Milford weather as compared with that of other places along airways rute 36. And such reports, similarly favorable fav-orable to Milfonl conditions, are almost monotonous in their regularity! regu-larity! Mr. anil Mrs. Conrad Whiting, who have beon in charge of the Union Pacific dining and lunch rooms for the last .six months or so, are always on the alert for something out of the ordinary to serve Lions club luncheons and also al-so in connection with the regular lunch counter service. In accordance accord-ance with this desire on their part to render the utmost in the way of service to the people of Milford, there recently appeared on the menu choice lamb chops from prize stuff sold to the Union Pacific Pa-cific at the big Ogden Livestock show. But it took a transcontinental trip by the president of the world's newest republic to bring trout to the table set Wednesday for the local Lions club luncheon! I You see, it was this way: Tues-noon Tues-noon the Los Angeles Limited, Salt Lake-bound, had as passengers Dr. Manuel Quezon, president of the new Philippine republic, with his daughters, Zeneida and Aurora, together to-gether with Major General Dougla3 MacArthur, military adviser, and about 25 aides and servants. As a special treat to the party mountain trout were ordered by the dining car service, the same to be taken on at Milford. Due to a double order or some other bit of good fortune, Manager Whiting found himself with a windfall of choice trout Wednesday And promptly prepared 14 fine specimens for as many hungry members of the Lions club. That was very fine and very much appreciated, but it is not alone for these" special courtesies that Mr. and Mrs. Whiting have won such warm spots in the hearts of local people. Besides giving the very best they can in the way of service and excellent food, these good people have taken advantage of every opportunity to make themselves vital parts of the community. com-munity. And that this pays big dividends divi-dends is proved by the fact that their Christmas business was twice as large as that of a year ago! And this was before the big rush of business of the last 60 days had more than got started! Incidentally, the increase in employes em-ployes in this department has not been mentioned when commenting on the big increase in railroad em-( em-( Continued on last page) Ruminatin (Continued from first page) ployes of the recent past. Perhaps this increase has not been as apparent ap-parent as some others But Mr. Whiting informs us that, where there were ten employes em-ployes in this service when he came to Milford, there are now 15 and all carefully picked Jor their work. Also with a view to serving the community, Mr. Whiting states : that they will be glad to confer I with local people relative to bridge ! luncheons and other affairs too large for private home accomoda- tions. And this is something that has been needed badly in the community with a steadily increasing need as Milford again assumes to take her I rightful place in the sun! |
