Youths in the 18-19 age group will not be subject to military service, under present law, until they reach their twentieth birth- day, but those who have attained the age of 20 since last Decem- ber 21, will become immediately eligible for the draft.

The second, last July, applied to those who became 21 after the initial registration. On Feb. 16, 1942, the nation registered men 20 years old and those from 35 through 44. The most recent registra- tion on April 27 was for men from 45 through 64 for non- military service.

A. R. West, agent and collector for the campaign in Plymouth, reports that farmers have con- tributed old ploughs, discs and drags and other heavy farm equipment of good quality iron. The scrap iron pile located in the lot next to the West build- ing on South Main street is about 12 feet high. The farmers of this vicinity are doing their share to help 'win the war. Other citizens are urged to donate scrap metal and rubber which will be collect- ed by the city dump trucks in the regular rubbish pick-ups. Nothing is known of the re- sults of the WPA scrap drive, but it is, understood they did get a few hundred pounds. 0 Sand lake, one of the glacial pit lakes in northern Lenawee county, in the Raisin river drain- age basin, is a productive lake well suited to bluegills and largemouth bass even with its present low water level, a con- servation department fisheries survey crew reports.

City To Establish Farmers'Market Chamber of Commerce Introduces Plan The city commission voted at a special meeting Monday evening to establish a Plymouth public market on a 60 -day trial. The farmers' market will be establish- ed Saturday, June 6 in the park- ing space at the rear of the city hall. The parking space will ac- commodate 25 farmers' produce trucks. The plan for a farmers' mar- ket was introduced by the Plym- outh Chamber. of Commerce which conducted a survey among farmers and local grocers, all of whom expressed enthusiasm for the project. Fees, rules and regulations for the operation of farmers' stalls will be announced by the city manager next week. All farmers interested in merchandising their produce at the public market are asked to call the city hall within the next week. It is planned to operate the market every Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the first hour will be confined to whole- sale business for local grocers. The remaining hours will be for' retail sales to the public. The Plymouth market will aid in the conservation of tires and stimulate local business, accord- Buy U. S.
