There is one thing you can say about Millis and that is that it has more ginger than all the other towns," said the village wise-cracker. Perhaps his statement was literally true, since Millis is the town in which is manufactured an internationally-famous ginger ale. Other manufacturing concerns of large mention make shoes and waterproof paper among other things, which furnish employment for a percentage of the 1,791 persons who make up the population of the town, using the State census figures of 1925. The population has grown substantially in the past decade.

Millis began to walk alone February 24, 1885, parting on that date of its incorporation from Medway. Like so many other towns, it can trace its ancestry back to Dedham, since Medway was until 1713, a part of Medfield, and Medfield was until 1650, included in the old town of Dedham, which had a beginning in 1636, and that is harking back to the Puritans.

There is much that is interesting in a town of about two thousand citizens bent on village improvements, making the town attractive, a good place in which to live and raise a family, win prosperity, but never at the expense of leaving out the educational and spiritual qualities which are invariably thought of as the first consideration in the New England scheme of things. Millis is true to the best traditions of the towns from which it sprung
