Vol. 3—No. 29 Wednesday, September 9, 1942 Plymouth, Michigan JeanneHartenstein Father Enlists in Navy Service Miss Jeanne Hartenstein, 22 - year -old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arno Hartenstein of Mar- guerita avenue in Clarenceville, was sworn in last Friday, Aug- ust 28 as a -private in the Wo- men's Auxiliary Army Corps. Accepted for training at Fort Des Moines, Iowa in the WAAC serv- ice, Jeanne became the third member of her family in the armed services. Her father, Arno Hartenstein, 48 a veteran of World War I who served as a gunner captain in the U. S. Navy, enlisted last week also for training and duty as a chief machinist's mate in the Navy forces. Father and daugh- ter passed their physical and mental examinations for serv- ice on the same day. A third member of the family, Robert Hartenstein, 20 -year-old, has served in the U. S. Navy since April, 1942 and is now stationed at New London, Conn. Miss Hartenstein, one of 20 ,young women -inducted into the WAAC service last week, will begin a 30 -day training period Livonia Joins Salvage Drive Register for Defense Service Sept. 10 - 12 Livonia township is mobilizing to "get in the scrap" by joining the nation-wide participation in the Salvage for Victory program. A board of registration will be established at the township hall next Thursday, Friday and Satur- day, from 10 a. in. to 7 p. m. to enroll volunteers in the protective and service branches of civilian defense. Township citizens are urged to volunteer their aid as air raid wardens, auxiliary fire and police officers, medical corps and other defense branches, and also for salvage, nutrition, public heath, day care for children, consumers' information and recreation activi- ties of defense. Everyone may help on the home front by saving tin cans and other scrap materials for the salvage drive. This is something that everyone can do without de- voting time to attending training classes. The township will make a house-to-house collection of tin cans in all districts on Saturday, October 3, and everyone is asked to start saving tin cans now. The U. S. Office of Civilian Defense has -issued a 48 -page booklet, "What Can I Do," and copies of the booklet are available at the township hall. For the benefit of those who have not started to save tin cans but wish to help in the salvage drive, the following suggestions are offered by the War Produc- tion Board: Cans are to be opened completely, remove both the top and bottom covers; wash thor- oughly as foreign matter pollutes the detinning agent; remove paper labels from cans; flatten cans by stepping on them, but don't hammer the sides together; food cans and tobacco containers are excellent for salvage but don't contribute paint, oil, var- nish or conical top beer cans. Not only the tin is reclaimed from the cans, but also steel vitally needed for war production. To meet America's increasingly crit- ical shortage of raw materials, every man, woman and child in the community is expected to help collect scrap metals, rubber, hemp, waste cooking fats and (Continued on Page 10) at Des Moines as soon, as she re- ceives her call. .She attended Clarenceville schools and was graduated from Redford high school in 1937.

A Good Place To Buy Your GROCERIES and MEATS Lidgard Brothers formerly McKinney & Schaffer DO RIGHT BY YOUR ... it must "keep things cool" until �1Cf®f'yl YOUR REFRIGERATOR will last longer if you take reasonable care of it, and that's doubly important today when no more refrigerators are being made. Remember that the one you now have must keep cool for the duration. Treat it accordingly! '(1) Defrost regularly according to manufacturer's instructions, and empty drip water immediately. Heavy frost on the coils makes your refrigerator work over- time, and increases operating cost. Never use a knife or sharp tool for defrosting. (2) After defrosting, wash the entire interior of refrig- erator (coils, shelves, trays, etc.). Use lukewarm water and mild soap, followed by fresh water with a little baking soda. This banishes ice -box odor and leaves your refrigerator clean and fresh. `(3) Wipe up fruit and vegetable juices as soon as they are spilled. (They harm the finish.) Wash the outside surface of your refrigerator with warm water and, soap, and dry with a soft cloth. (4) Don't overcrowd your refrigerator. Place left -overs in small containers to save space. Always let hot foods cool before placing in refrigerator. ;(5) Unless the motor of your refrigerator is hermeti- cally sealed, have it oiled and inspected regularly. ;(6) Be sure there is adequate air circulation all around your refrigerator. Move it an inch or two out from the wall if necessary. The Detroit Edison Company: Wednesday, September 9� 1942 THE LIVGNTIAN Fuge 3 T6achers Attend Mark Institute 70 At Pre -School County Meeting Seventy teachers from Plym- outh, Livonia, Canton, Northville, ' Nankin, Fisher and Gratiot town- ship districts attended the Teach- ers' Institute of the northern div- ision of Wayne county held at Stark school last Thursday and Friday. The meeting is one of four two-day institutes held in Wayne county prior to the open- ing of school on September 8.. Miss Mary S. Jameson, super- vising teacher for the division, and Miss Georgina Reid, school nurse, were in charge of the in- stitute program. Thursday's pro- gram included registration, "Star Spangled Banner," led by Mrs. Zaida Wolfe of Stark and Mrs. June Salisbury of Livonia Cen- ter; flag salute by Frank Trott of Wilcox; welcome by James Rossman, Stark principal; an- nouncements by Miss Jameson; an address, "A.B.C.'s of Educa- tion," by Charles E. Brake, dep- uty superintendent of schools, and a talk on "Newer. Trends in, Arithmetic" by Miss-=El•da i,. Merton, co -author -of Arithmetic We Use." Following a recess, Miss Reid outlined the school health pro- gram for 1942-43; Mrs. Waunda Marzolf, director of Junior Red Cross, spoke on those -activities; Miss Genevieve Keller, reading specialist, spoke of "Trends in Reading"; Miss Erma Maxwell of the county superintendent's of- fice, discussed "Child Accounting and Registers, followed by "Wayne County Library" by Miss Louise Hetherington. Miss Lelia McGuire of the Merrill -Palmer school spoke on "Nutrition," opening Friday's session, followed by Miss Ethel Spilsbury, social worker for Wayne county; an address by Fred C. Fischer, county super- intendent of schools; a discuss- ion of Wayne county extension work by Miss Emma DuBord, home demonstration agent and Kenneth Anderson, 4-H club agent; a talk on citizenship by Mrs. Ada Watson. The meetings also included several conference group discussions on educational policies. 0 Phone Company Aids en. In Army Adds "Telecoach" To Fort Custer Service Something new has been added by the Michigan Bell Telephone Company to make its service more pleasing and convenient to the men of Fort Custer. It's a mobile public telephone unit called the "Telecoach", lo- cated in the recruit reception cen- ter area: Equipped with three telephone booths, the Telecoach remains open from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Mondays through Satur- days, and from 1 to 8 p.m., Sun- days. Three operators from the Telephone Company's office at Battle Creek serve as attend- ants. The attendants perform a var- iety of duties helpful to soldiers placing calls. They make it un- necessary for him to fumble for the correct charges at the tele- phone by providing him with change. They also supply infor- mation on long distance rates to various points. Of even more im- portance, they fix it so Johnny Doughboy can get his call put through with a minimum of waiting in line when there is a rush for long distance service. Johnny gives the attendant the number of the distant telephone he is calling. If the call goes through immediately, Johnny is assigned to a booth and starts talking. If, however, the line is busy or there is no answer, the attendant sends him on his way, notifying him later when the call is put through. The Telecoach is a temporary arrangement, designed to supple- ment the public telephone ser- vice from about 100 telephones scattered about the Fort. Plans are under way for the erection of a special building at the same location to house a battery of ten telephone booths. The company also has appointed a full-time manager at the Fort— John F. Edwards, formerly with its Grand Rapids office. A sur- vey is being made by the company to determine what steps will be taken to render the service more pleasing and convenient to sold- iers and sailors at other military and nnaval establishments in its territory.

With a post hole digger dig a hole the size of a gallon, bucket through the run, so that when the bucket is placed in the hole the top of the bucket will be just below the tunnel. Plug each end of the tunnel with loose dirt. When the mole presses dirt out he will fall into the bucket and cannot climb out. Then place a board over the hole, flat with the surface. 0 Paint to Protect: Cement Although decoration is generally the motivating reason for painting a house, the prevention of moisture absorption by porous surfaces such as brick, stucco and other cement mix materials is equally important. Frequent saturation is conducive "to surface dusting and unsightly stains. Upon freezing the moisture expan- sion may result in serious crum- bling. Correctly formulated paint will seal the surface and thus elimi- nate the cause for disintegration and staining. L. BLAKE JEWELER Opposite Post Office Northville, Mich.

It is generally known that the Red Cross makes use of Hope Chapel for its local headquarters during the week and a great deal of water is needed as it is desired to establish a central location for use of the Red Cross blood bank.

Howell, Republican candidate for State Senator from the .eighteenth district;: proposes to have the state -sales tax law amended so that the tax will be .collected at the sourceof supply instead of by- different retailers and -to discontinue the sales tax on food. Mr. `Howell, with eight years' experience with the state welfare department, probably the largest spending revenue department in the state government, and four years' experience in the sales tax department, the largest revenue collecting department in the state, declares that the proposed amendment to the sales tax law would net about five million dol- lars more a year to the state than they now realize. This system of collecting at the source would eliminate chiseling and faulty bookkeeping that now exist and assure the state of collecting the full amount of sales tax due them, declares the senate candi- date. It would also pave the way to discontinuing the sales tax on food which is about 20 per cent higher than it has been in years, he states. To discontinue the tax on food would be a savings for every family in the state. "The sales tax as a whole is a very equitable and fair tax but the residents of Michigan should not have to pay to eat .)articular- ly at this stime. There is no tax on food in 20 of- the 35 states that now have sales tax laws," declares Mr. Howell, a resident of Livonia 'township, who is a former director of the old -age pension bureau and a member of the American Legion. 0 Livonia Library Moves To Rosedale School The Rosedale Gardens branch of the Wayne county library has moved its quarters into the Rose- dale public school building on Cranston avenue.

The report of the swing class in the moonlight shadows of Buck- ingham Palace was dispatched by the New York Times Foreign Service this week. On the lawn in Green Park, a portable phonograph furnished swing music for the Yank jitter- bugs and their British girls. "The British girls sure liked our dancing," one of the Yanks told a reporter. Young Basel, who lived at 12930 Mercedes avenue in Livonia .township, was former- ly employed as a pipe -fitter and welder at .the Cadillac Motor company in Detroit.

Mr -and Mrs. William Garchow of Five Mile and Merriman roads, and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Herr of Detroit observed a joint celebra- tion on the occasion of their for- tieth. wedding anniversaries Sat- urday evening, August 29. The two honored couples anti 14 guests from Detroit enjoyed a chicken and duck dinner served at Berry's Chicken Shack on Plymouth road. The table was decorated with two large bouquets, and one of the guests was Nancy Shaw of Detroit, 69. years of age, who was the flower girl at the Garchow wedding. Mr. Garchow was born in Livonia township on the site of his present home and married the former Jessie Wil- liamson of Mt. Pleasant, who taught school in Livonia Center, on August 29, 1902. Mr. Garchow is a sales representative for the Hygiene Equipment company of Detroit. Cheap Cuts Strangely enough, some of the most nutritious meats are found at the bottom of the butcher's price list.

Beavers Benefit Birds Beaver preserves in the James bay area of Canada are proving beneficial to waterfowl, reports the department of mines and resources. Beaver ponds and meadows created in sanctuaries by the industrious beaver provide additional food and shelter for large numbers of geese, ducks, and shore -birds migrating to and from their nesting grounds and increase the available breeding area.

(Formerly Frank's Inn) 31022 Ann Arbor Trail Near Merriman Road Schneider Runs For State Senate Seeks Nomination in Eighteenth District At the coming primary, Tues- day, September 15, John H. Schneider will be a candidate for nomination on the Democratic ticket for the office of State Sen- ator in the eighteenth district. Mr. Schneider is a native of his district and a lifelong resident in it. He was graduated from the Detroit Central high school, at- tended the University of Detroit, and was graduated from the Law School of the University of Mich- igan, in the class of 1927. He has been a successful practicing attorney in Detroit for the past 15 years. John H. Schneider is married, the father of two chil- dren and is a home owner, re- siding at 18040 Northlawn ave- nue, Detroit. In 1936 he was elected circuit court commissioner of Wayne county to fill a vacancy. He serv- ed with distinction to the end of his term. In 1938, he was the Democratic nominee for the state senate in the eighteenth senator- ial district, making a strong run and losing only by a narrow mar- gin in the election. In recent campaign talks, Can- didate Schneider has urged all voters to exercise their right to vote. He has stressed the point that American boys are giving up their lives so :that the right to vote can be maintained and that each citizen should regard it as their patriotic duty to exer- cise that right. "Our great national leader, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, pres- ident of the United States, is en- gaged in a tremendous effort to throw the full might of America into the war. Michigan is one of the great industrial states of America and it is playing a lead - and effective part in this great war program. So it becomes a matter of far more than ordinary concern that we have in our next_ state legislature lawmakers who can be relied upon to enact pa- triotically and skillfully the leg- islation that will fit Michigan solidly into place as a most effi- cient cog in the nation's war effort so as to bring about suc- cessfully and speedily the term- ination of the present war," says Mr. Schneider. The candidate's platform calls for strongly maintaining Amer- ican constitutional freedom of religion, speech, and human rights, with honest, intelligent, humane government for all, re- gardless of race, creed or color; economy in non -war spending; and he is in favor of legislation to cushion post-war unemploy- ment. For many years he was a mem- ber of the Wayne County Dem- ocratic committee, and is a mem- ber of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows; The Detroit Lodge of Elks No. 34; the Detroit Bar Association, Wayne County Bar Association and the State Bar of Michigan. 0 Cellulose Raw Material Rayon is an artificial silk of which cellulose is the principal raw ma- terial. The process by which the artificial silk filaments are prepared is similar, in principle, to the spin- ning processes of silk worms and spiders, the idea of copying which was suggested by R. A. F. de Reau- mur in 1734 and by Robert Hook in 1664. Cellulose is, as is generally known, made from wood or cotton hulls. Campfire Girls To Attend Camp Wathana A group of 21 Livonia Camp- fire Girls will spend next Satur- day and Sunday, September 19 and 20 at Camp Wathana a,c- companied by Mrs. Edward Ham- ilton and Mrs. Edward Gillies.

During the summer months, Mrs. Charles Shelton and Mrs. Fred Verran have attended day camp sessions at Rouge park where they have gathered many handi- craft suggestions for the next year of Campfire activities. Not Always Wrong Snow, rain, sleet, hail and sun- shine were all recorded in a sin- gle day recently. And yet there are people who still complain that weather prophets are always wrong.

On June 22, 1939 it was vetoed by Governor Dickinson, whereupon Senator Fenner s e c u r e d suffi- cient uffi- cient legislative support to override the Governor's veto. The bill is now Public Act N o. 342 and provides Livonia Township with water. Under this Act, the Wayne County Road Commission laid 7 miles; of trunk water lines in Livonia Township, with- out the cost of a single dollar -to Livonia taxpayers and water users.

Not To Close Deer Hunting Season Rumors Untrue Says Hoffmaster Persistent rumors that Mich- igan will forego a deer hunting season this year because of the war have no basis of fact. P. J. Hoffmaster, conservation depart- ment director, in answering quer- ies concerning the possibilities of a closed season, stated that, ex- cept for transportation difficul- ties, Michigan deer .hunters will continue their sport "as usual" this fall. "The economic value of the venison harvested would in itself justify an open hunting season," Hoffmaster said. "Inasmuch as we have been hearing considerably of late as to the possibilities or even prob- abilities of fresh meat rationing, I think it is well to consider the millions of pounds of fresh ven- ison that are harvested during each November's deer hunting season. According to hunters' re- ports, 75,692 deer were taken during the Iast season. This rep- resents approximately 10,975,00.0 .pounds of fresh meat. That is a rather startling figure, especially in these times when it is neces- sary that we release as much fresh meat to our armed forces and our allies as we can spare." To the criticism that hunters use shells that might better be turned over to the army, Hoff - master said that most Michigan _deer hunters already have their shells and that the shells used in deer rifles cannot .be used as army ammunition. Hoffmaster ,pointed to the rec- reational value of hunting and to the need for "controlling" the deer herd from a biological point of view. "We some day may appreciate more than ° now and need the training and experience obtained by more than 150,000 men armed with rifles who spend a couple of weeks in our north woods every fall, he said._ -0- Molasses Highway A process for surfacing roads with a molasses preparation has been de- veloped in India.

TANKS—for' hot telphoning It takes a lot of telephoning io keep war plants humming. And today, that's the big job. War calls must go through. It may take the same amount of Long Distance equipment to make a personal call as it does to rush through an order for tank parts. That's why every telephone call you do not make is a contribution to the war effort. In normal times, we'd get busy and build sufficient add!-� tional equipment to keep step with needs. But right now that is not possible. Telephone materials are more urgently, needed for tanks, bombers and machines of war. Here are three simple ways you can help make the most L of available equipment and keep vital messages moving:; 1. Make only the most essential Long Distance calls.: 2. Keep ALL your conversations as brief as you can.; 3. When possible, give the number of the distant telephone you are calling. Remember the war every time you pick up the telephone.' Keep your calls as short as possible. Don't ask Information for numbers listed in the directory.

West Side Wins Rubber Game of Series, 19 - 14 The Rosedale West Side "Rats" upheld tradition last Wednesday evening by defeating the East Side "Skunks", 19 to 14 in the hotly -contested rubber game of a five -game series. Before the game, Captain Olson of the East Side `.`Skunks" and a number of his little ",skunks", perhaps feeling somewhat elated over their successes in the two previous contests, proposed that the losers of the rubber game buy the refreshments for the winners. The "Rats" enjoyed the treat and offered their thanks to Captain Olson for his suggestion. Highlights of the game in- cluded Doc Brooker's home run over Fred Van Devender's head in center field; Harold Stull's first hit of the series, a sharply hit ground ball between pitcher Shoesmith's legs; Cal Robert's long foul balls in the vicinity of Tony Epling's tomato patch; Arn- old Wehner's disgust when called out when hit by his own batted._. ball; Earl Stanbury's muff of a well -thrown ball from Hary Odger's; Benny Nethanson's work around the "hot corner" which was really hot; Joe Morris' triple with the bases loaded and the "Rats" in general for their come- back after the previous week's defeat.
