In Rosedale
Need 45 Men to
Open First Class
A training class for air raid
wardens will begin early in
March in Rosedale Gardens pro-
viding enough men register this
week, announced Les Bowdlear,
11026 Melrose, Rosedale Gardens,
chairman of the southwest Li-
vonia township committee Ifor
civilian defense. At least 45
men must be registered for air
raid warden service before the
class can .be started, and if the
required number is not reached,
the instructor will be- offered to
another area.
Although the first training
class to run 10 weeks will con-
sist of 45, it is estimated that at
least 100 men and women must
be trained as air raid wardens
before even the small area
bounded by Farmington, Middle
Belt and Joy roads and the rail-
road tracks to the north, will be
prepared for the bombing attacks
which many authorities believe
are imminent in the Detroit area.
Although the first group of
trainees will probably consist of
men, it is likely that subsequent
classes will enroll both men and
women. In order to assure that
the Rosedale Gardens area will
be one of the first to receive in-
struction, residents there should
register this week, with any of
the following members of the
registration committee:
Mrs. J. B. Kinahan, 11301 Ber-
wick, chairman; Mrs. W. H. Hol-
ton, 11405 Berwick; Mrs. H. N.

Byrd Residence Is
Saved by Firemen
Zero weather and a 3 a.m. call
for aid didn't stop the Rosedale
Gardens fire department from
saving the residence of J. P. Byrd
last Thursday when flames from
his burning garage caused slight
damage to his home.
Flames from the garage were
noted by Mr. Byrd's daughter-
in-law, Mrs. Fred Byrd, who
lives nearly a block away. When
the fire department was notified
the garage was nearly burned to
the ground and it was a total
loss upon their arrival.
The blaze started from a brood-
er which was in the garage and
in addition to the 18x20 garage
structure, a 1932 Ford coupe, 98
chickens, 200 pounds of chicken
feed and a half ton of coal were
destroyed.
An estimated loss of $300 re-
sulted from the fire and there
was no insurance to cover the
same.
South Lyon Triplets
Visit Relatives Here
Residents down on the corner
of Middle Belt roads thought
they were seeing things last
Tuesday when the Adolph Trapps
of South Lyon came to visit with
the Albert Trapps and brought
their identical triplets along with
them.
The three 11 -year-old sisters
can hardly be distinguished be-
tween by their parents and since
this is so unusual an occurence,
the University of Michigan has
studied` the three girls for quite
some time. All .are in perfect
health and, according to people
who have seen them, they are
extremely good looking.

Members of the Coventry Gar-
dens Civic association were
warned of t h e approaching
dangers of war by their pres-
ident, John T. Howell, at a meet-
ing last Monday evening and,
several steps were taken to pre-
pare that community for any ev-
entuality.
Appointment of a fire marshall,
air warden and food and water
maintenance man was made by
the president. The meeting . was
considered important enough so
that all homes were canvassed in,
that community and residents
were invited to attend.
President Howell brought to
the residents' attention the fact
that consideration should be
given to the children from the
standpoint of shock in case of an
air raid and a committee was
appointed to study this important
problem.
Officials of the organization
took occasion at the meeting to
express their gratitude to Mrs.
Myron Anderson and her com-
mittee consisting of Mrs. War-
ren Wilson and Mrs. Charles
Skelton for the fine work they
have done in conjunction with
the Red Cross Blood Donor cam-
paign which was brought to a
conclusion Monday.
The association's thanks were
also extended to Mrs. Clarence
Jahn for her work in conducting
knitting classes and to Mrs. Mil-
ton Blankenhagen for the re-
freshments served that evening.
Proposed plans for an $8;000
clubhouse were discussed and
from all indications this project
will be started immediately.
Red Cross Classes
Will Open 'Tonight
Plans for Many More
Now Being Considered
Red Cross first aid classes will
open tonight at the branch quar-
ters at Six Mils and Middle Belt
roads under the direction of R.
Gaylord. The class will start at
7:30 p.m. Another class under the
direction of Natalie Smith, coun-
ty nurse, will open Thursday
evening, February 26. This class
will feature instructions for in-
active nurses, air wardens and
auxiliary police. Persons inter-
ested in this class should call
Livonia 61761.
Over 100 Livonia residents
have signified their desire to
participate in these Red Cross
training courses. Facilities at
present are limited and of neces-
sity all cannot be invited to at-
tend the courses but it is the
plan of the chapter to open other
classes as fast as they can be
organized. Red Cross officials
are more than. pleased with the
intense interest local residents
have shown in the work and are
making plans to absorb all of
the people so desiring in the
classes very soon.

Cooper Residents Ask
Daily Transportation
Because of an influx of new
residents, the great majority of
whom are defense workers, and
since many Cooper community
residents are already employed
in defense plants, community of-
ficials are bending every effort
to secure bus transportation for
that area.
The Cooper Civic club has
taken the responsibility of mak-
ing the appeal to the D.S.R. and
negotiations are already under
way. Letters were secured early
this week from supervisors Zieg-
ler and Walker along with others
from township officials present-
ing the importance of a transpor-
tation system for that locality.
The D. S. R. already operates a
bus on Joy road to Burch road in
Rouge Park and it is hoped that
this service may be continued
down Joy road to Middle Belt,
thence down Middle Belt to War-
ren road, where it would con-
tinue to the street car line on
Warren avenue.
Residents who are desirous or
interested in securing the trans-
portation should communicate
with officials of the Civic club
immediately.

Fine Restaurant
Where'Lil' as
Up -to -Date Eating
Place to Open Soon
Township- residents are pleased
to learn that the reopening of the
former Diamond Lil's will bring
an air of respectability to that
place when it blossoms forth as a
first class restaurant within the
next few weeks.
The posting of a thousand dol-
lar bond with the Wayne county
prosecutor gave Floyd Raze the
right to remodel, repair and re-
condition the old brick house on
Six Mile road and at the same
time gave him permission to open
a first class eating establishment
featuring steaks, chicken and
frog.legs.
The new proprietor has been an
employe at Nankin Mills tavern
for some time .and is well known
throughout this section. He plans
to install a modern kitchen and
workmen are at this moment
cleaning and painting the rest of
the house prior to its opening.
The opening will be announced
at a later date in the advertising
columns of The Livonian.

The Fun and Laughter bunco
clubs, whose members live on
Oxbow and Hartel roads, in this
township, gave a surprise party
for a former member, Mrs, Mar-
garet Barney, at her new home
in Detroit. Mrs. Barney, who has
been a member of the Fun and
Laughter club almost since its in-
ception, moved to Detroit several
weeks ago. Last Tuesday night
the club members, Mrs. Anne
Davison and Mrs. Ruth Martin,
both, of Oxbow road and Mrs.
Norma Counsil and Mrs. Rose
Garry, both of Hartel road, drove
in to Mrs. Barney's new home
` at 1612. Pallister avenue in De-
troit. After a very delightful eve-
ning the ladies presented Mrs.
Barney with a lovely table lamp
as a token of their esteem.

When a Michigan conservation
officer stationed near Newberry
found an illegally killed buck
hanging in the woods two days
,before the season opened, he in-
serted a 1918 dime in ooe hoof,
scratched one •antler. On opening
day he apprehended the violators
dragging the deer out, and his
identification of the deer through
the dime changed their story of a
fresh kill to a plea of guilty in
court.

Farmington, Mich.
The year 1745 marked the first time
that electricity was collected in quan-
tities large enough to facilitate experi-
ments. The feat has been variously
credited to Bishop von Kleist, dean of
the Cathedral of Comin, Pomerania; to
Pieter Van Musschenbroek, professor
at,the University of Leyden, Holland; -
and to Cunaeus, a pupil of Musschen-
broek and wealthy burgher of the city
of Leyden. At any rate, this inven-
tion supposedly owes its name to the
Abbe Nollet of France, who dubbed it
the "Leyden jar."
Musschenbroek set about collecting
the "electric fluid" in a wide-mouthed
flask half -full of water. The flask was
corked, and a wire through the cork
dipped into the water of the jar. The
other end of the wire was connected to
a gun barrel suspended by
two silk cords, and at-
tached to an elec-
trical "spark" machine. After having
charged the bottle, Cunaeus, who was
assisting with the experiment, attempted
to disconnect the wire, and received a
violent shock.
Musschenbroek, writing to his friend
Reaumur in Paris, declared he "would
not take such a shock for the kingdom
of France." But the Abbe Nollet re-
peated the experiments before King
Louis XV, sending an electrical charge
through 180 of the King's guardsmen.
Benjamin Franklin, in a letter to Peter
Collinson in 1747, said, "I cannot for-
bear adding a few observations on M.
Musschenbroek's wonderful bottle," and
described 10 different experiments that
he (Franklin) had performed. Another
letter told how he used five Leyden jars
to kill a 10 -pound turkey. Franklin
added, "The birds killed
in this manner cook un-
commonly tender."

Sugar Shortage
Will Benefit Health
Of American People
Don't complain about sugar
rationing; it will be good for you.
This is the advice of Dr. L. H.
Newburgh, widely -known Uni-
versity of Michigan authority on
dietetics.
As a matter of fact, Dr. New-
burgh declares, it would be a
Godsend if there were no sugar
at all, for if there weren't, we
would be forced to eat more
whole grains, meats, milk, green
vegetables and other foods which
give us everything that sugar
does, plus much-needed B -vita-
mins and other necessary food
elements.

approximately one-third of our
body fuel from other resources,
Dr. Newburgh points out.
Milk is the best fuel substi-
tute for sugar, Dr. Newburgh
says, since it also provides pro-
teins, vitamins, salts and fats.
One glass of milk, he says, is
equal in fuel content to four
teaspoonsful of sugar.
Whole cereals, Dr. Newburgh
adds, are a much more whole-
some food than sugar since they
provide, in addition to fuel, vita -
mens of the important B group
and 10 per cent of protein. An
ordinary portion of oatmeal, he
says, is - equal in fuel value to
four teaspoonsful of sugar.

tations of what we hope for: ex-
