MILO TO HOLD SPECIAL TOWN MEETING There will be a special Town Meeting on ':Ghursday, July 29,

a t 7:30 p. m. at the Town Hall to act on the following articles: 1. To choose a Moderator to preside at said meeting . 2. To see if the Town of Mtlo will appropriate from surplus

the sum of $11, 000. 00 for the purpose ofallowing the assess­ors to grant Milo Woode rafters, Inc. an abatement on the taxes assessed on the former American Thread property.

EDITOR'S NOTE: The passage of article 2 would provide the funds necessary to allow the assessors to grant an abatement to l\lilo \\/oodc rafters, Inc . This abatement is requested since there appears to be a difference of opinion between Milo Wood­crafters. Inc. and the assessors of Milo as to the valuation of the former American Thread property.

If the citizens vote to allow th is use of surplus funds, it will not necessitate any increase of the taxes on t he rest of Milo' s tax.­payer s .

It is belie\•ed that l\lilo Woodctafters, Inc. will eventually em -ploy o\·er 100 people in Milo. Therefore it is hoped that an agree­ment can be reached.

HE · fl!. FAMILY. LAWYER-=-

by Will Bernard

Bicycle Law Bicycling downhill on a narrow

street, Greg spied a truck parked at the curb ahead of him. Con­fident that he could swing around the truck, he continued pedalling at full speed.

But at the last moment, a car loomed up from the opposite di­rection. Unable to tum out, Greg slammed inm the truck and suf­fered painful injuries.

As it happened, the truck bad been standing in a "NO PARK­ING" zone. Accordingly, Greg filed a damage claim against the trucking company. But the court ruled against him, pointing out that he himself was guilty of neg­ligence .

.. A bicycle rider," said the court, "has the same duty as ant other vehicle operator-to keep it under such control that he can stop or tum to avoid collisions."

Each community has its own set of regulations about the use of bicycles. But· everywhere the Jaw insists on this basic rule of safety. A similar standard of due care applies to the motorist who encounters a bicyclist on the street. For example:

A motorist on a highway could see that the bicycle rider ahead of him was having navigational problems. Carrying a rake in one hand, the rider was barely keep.. ing h.s balance. And just as the car caught up, the bicycle lurched into its path.

Here, the motorist was held liable for the accident. The court said that since he had plenty of time to recognize the danger, he should have given the bicyclist a wider berth.

One case involved a five-year­old boy who sallied forth on his tricycle after dark. An inexperi­enced rider, he ran into a pedes­trian on the sidewalk and knocked him down.

Under these circumstances a court made the boy's parents pay damages. The court said they had no business allowing their child to become a public menace.

LIBRARY NEWSLETTER This week our newsletter tells of some of the Library's latest

historical novels. The Winthrop Covenant by Louis Auchincloss is a powerful

chronical s'pan'ning three centuries ofi:he-Winthrop family in New England and New York. .

Louis Auchincloss portrays the rise and fall of the Puritan ethic.

Through a richly diverse gallery of men and women, both real and fictional, he llluminates the personal and social conflicts that the Puritan sense of mission has generated, under the changing guises, in American life .

The Library has three other books by Louis Auchincloss:~ World of Profit, Portrait in Brownstone, and The Embezzler.

Those who enjoy Victoria Holt's novels, (also Philippa Carr and Jean Plaldy) will enjoy Jean Plaidy's latest historical no­vel "Light_Q£,Lucrezia".

More than just I ne story of Lucrezia Borgia from her marriage with Alfonso 01 Besceglie to her death, Light 2!!. Lucrezia is also an endeavor to shine the light of truth and reason on one of the most maligned figures ln history.

This is a frank story of the brutal days of the Borgia's, when the whole of Italy t rembled at the sign of the Grazing Bull -­when every man feared to sup at the Borgia table, when Pope and his son dreamed of a united Italy under their rule ~ and· a bewildered young girl was caught up in a web of fear and love.

1876, a Novel, by Gore Vidal: . Accurate to the smallest detail, 1876 is a consummate work

of historical fiction by an acknowledged master of the art, a work of endless charm and fascination by the author af the hugely successful Burr.

Our library does not yet have the novel Burr, but if the patrons . enjoy 1876 and mention the fact; then we will purchase this book (a novel of one of our founding fathers, the late Aaron Burr.) ~lsthe story of Charlie Schuyler, Burr's unacknowledged

son. Library Hours: 2-5 6-8 Mon. , Wed. , Fri.
