He couldn't sing as a Quaker and he couldn't sing as a Methodist. But, be lieve me, he tried and no one could stop him." The big wish of his father's life, "young" Milton says, was to live to see the end of slavery. And he got that wish and died happily. Started aa Teacher After a common school education. ~lil'ton Timberlake became a school teacher. He taught at Bellefontaine and got $40 a month, which was the first money he ever earned. Then came the Civil war. With the country torn by conflict between the North and South he and a brother, John, joined the army. \Vhen the war came to an end in 1866 the,· re· turned home. He did not go back to teaching. He married a cousin of his aunt at Lafayette, Ind. The next few years found him in the grain business and ·for fourteen years he stuck to it. While selling grain there came an opportunity to come to Chicago. That's how it happens .that he is now in this section of the country. The years tha~ followed were uneventful until he moved to the north shore. At present he is living with a daughter in Highland Park. But \Vil. mette, Kenilworth, Glencoe and Winnetka know him just as well as do the Highland Parkers. "I'm a great grandfather," he ays proudly. Then he goes on to tell about his brother John. "John was in the manufacturing business in Jackson, Mich., until a few years ago. John was talking to me one day several years ago and said. '\\.ell, ~filt, I'm 76 years old now and I guess it's time to start saving some money for a rainy day." It wasn't long after that that John was forced to retire from business because of poor health."

He's been on the job. ,or several years and expects to be at tt for several more years. "It's getting a little tougher all the time," says Timberlake in talking about 1 the subscription b\4-;jness. "You sece pretty nearly. everybody in my territor; take the papers. But I keep an eye on the people who are moving in and after I talk with them they are subscribers." But taking subscript~ons isn't much of a task for Timberlake; it's fun. His experiences, as he relates them, are inter· esting and often humorous. "Lots of times if I happen to call at a home around lunch time I'm invited in to have lunch," he remarked. "Oft~n the women folks ask me in to have tea. But perhaps the funniest thing happened one day when I called at a house in Wilmette. Afer I rang several times t'te housewife came to the door, scowling mad. 'You've had some sort of misfortune this morning, and I'm sorry, but it will come out all right,' I told her·. "She looked at me a few seconds, then, instead of the scowl there was a smile on her face. She invited me to lunch and we talked about the paper md she signed a subscription blank. "And finally she said: 'Yes, I did have a misfortune this morning. The stovepipe fell ~own'." Last winter Mr. Timberlake went to Florida for the colder months. But he didn't like it. "Nothing to do there," he c;;aid. "I've got to keep busy and so I was glad to get back to the north shore." Milton J. doesn't smoke and never has because, as he says, "I never learned." 1\o drinking either, for the same reason.
