Show Through a Woman's Eyes Ah, February -month of months! We find so much which makes this "second month alone", outstanding. out-standing. Consider, if you. will, the sentiment of February. On its 14th day we and little Eros with his bow and dart make known our love be it an unswerving devotion de-votion for an elder or the burning ardor of young love by tokens of lace and frills enverse and preciously pre-ciously meaninsjjful,' gSift. 'Odes, all of them, to a beloved saint, Valentine. And sentiment is not alone, for patriotism is deep enmeshed en-meshed in the February month. The 12th day is reverenced by the memory of our greatest patriot of all. We thank God for giving ui so humble, so benevolent, so human hu-man a pattern for living Abe Lincoln. Ami the day of the 22nd is known well and wide for being the birthdate of earliest America's savior and first Father of Our Country George Washington. But even more has this, our very shortest short-est of all months. February, alone, petitions her claim to fame every fourth year. On such occasion does she add 24 more glorious hours. And the "fairer sex" may add unto themselves, if so they should see fit, their heart's desire. de-sire. Praise be! Of things and you: For shame, Mrs. At-Fault, for: Deliberately ignoring current bestsellers best-sellers of the literary realm and then avidly gleaning newsstand thrillers. For the sloppy way you speak. For not being able to answer at least half the questions on any quiz program. For shame for: Your utter dis regard of what men like you to wear. For not knowing what charm is and for not (acquiring some. For spending hours at the bridge table, then for shooing the children off to play when they get "under foot". For refusing- to study your wardrobe needs before you shop. For shame for: Littse realizing your own potentialities. In and around Milford, I find: The occasion of the Delta-Mil-ford basketball game was rather epical. What other event could have brought so many visiting guests to our "fair village?" Friday Fri-day saw the main street of Milford Mil-ford looking for all the world like a Fourth of July celebration in the making. Our guests were warmly warm-ly received and before the day had finished were the victors who carried car-ried away the spoils of battle. Our Milford Lions, I find, acted as hosts to the Lions of Delta by way of a banquet and ring-side seats at the before-mentioned battle. bat-tle. I also find the past week (February 8-12) was nationally recognized as Scout week. Is this a bit of surprise to Milford or is; our Scouting and its agents be--' coming a "lost cause" here? I have heard tell that Scouts live and die, as all human beings, but their deeds never perish. Sincerely, "YOUR OBSERVER" |
