Donate To Red Cross
Blood Bank Aug. 11
Give a pint of .your blood and
save a life! The Red Cross mobile
blood bank will be at the Stark
school August 11 from 4 to 8 p.m.
When war was declared, cap-
ital and hospital ships of our
Pacific fleet were already sup-
plied with blood plasma process-
ed through the Red Cross pro-
gram and further supplies were
on hand in the Philippines for
use by the armed forces there.
Lives of American soldiers and
sailors are depending on trans-
fusions of blood plasma. Even
under the strained conditions of
battle, this new product of mod-
ern science can be administered
to men suffering from shock re-
sulting from injuries, burns and
hemorrhage.
"The Red Cross must supply
our Army and Navy with hun-
dreds of thousands of blood plas-
ma units for these emergency
transfusions. It will make ,you
feel good to know that you are
doing .your part by donating a
pint of your blood to our soldiers
and sailors today. Tomorrow they
may need it desperately!" de-
clares Mrs. Eunice Rhoades,
chairman of the Livonia chapter
of the Red Cross. Volunteers for
the August 11 blood bank may
register by calling Mrs. Rhoades
or Mrs. Jesse Ziegler, chairman
of the blood donor program.

ber 8. Mrs. Hector Coutu is gen-
eral chairman, assisted by Mrs.

Complaint Filed
For Violation
The first complaint of a viola-

tled in justice court last Monday
evening, July 6. The complaint
was registered by several citizens
whose gardens were destroyed
by horses running at large in
the vicinity of Seven Mile and

Justice Leo Nye suspended
sentence when the defendant
pleaded guilty and informed
the court that he had moved his
horses to a farm and turned
them out to pasture. The com-
plaint cited that the defendant
was keeping horses for commer-
cial purposes in a R -1-F District,

Wood is challenging the metals
for a place in the war picture.
Wood has been substituted for
aluminum and other materials
in making pontoon boats, and
bodies of army cargo trucks, for-
merly made of iron and steel,
now are made of hardwood.
The average woman can tell
at a glance within a few dollars
how much another woman paid
for any item of clothing in her
wardrobe; whereas the average
man—unless he's a specialist—
has no idea whether another man
paid $20 or $200 for the clothes
he's wearing.
The 8,000 tons of steel which
used to go into novelties and
souvenirs would make 160;000 .50,
calibre machine guns.

VITAMINS
1cooking—
Tests show that ONE-THIRD the vitamins, in fresh vege-
tables may be lost through improper cooking before the
food ever reaches your table. Your electric range can
help conserve these important minerals and food values,
and aid in the preparation of healthful meals for your
family if you follow these simple rules:
(t) Use little water in cooking. Half -a -cup is ample
for most vegetables. Water-soluble vitamins are boiled
away and poured down the sink when you use large
quantities.of water, wasting the very things you pay for.
By steam -cooking vegetables, this loss is held to a mini-
mum. Avoid the vitamin -destroying effect of the boil-
ing process.
(2) Avoid prolonged and violent boiling. The less
time foods are exposed to high heat, liquid and air, the
smaller the loss of their vitamin content. On an electric
range, there is no large amount of water to be heated
before the cooking can start.
(3) Use covered utensils and do not stir. Air
destroys certain vitamins, and stirring simply puts extra
air into the food. Always use covered utensils when
cooking on the surface units of your range.

Aged Hermit Lives I
Solitary Existence
Harry H a k e, 74 - year - old
hermit of Livonia township, has
lived independent and secluded
from the rest of the world for 30
.years in a frame but on a wood-
ed -farm tract near Joy and
Wayne roads. The bearded little
old man lives an existence suffi-
cient unto himself on his 40 -acre
farm retreat in the woods, and
with the exception of stray dogs
and neighborhood boys rarely
receives any visitors.
Born in Taunton, Somerset -
shire, England, the son of Wil-
liam Hake, the "hermit" came to
this country with his family
when he was three .years old.
His parents, pioneers in Livonia
township, established a farm
homestead on the Five Mile road
in 1872. As a boy, the recluse at-
tended a one - room country
school in district No. 3 on the
Five Mile road and was grad-
uated from Plymouth high school.
He won a reputation for excel-
lent penmanship and a good
memory in his school days and
at one time during his .young
manhood was offered a partner-
ship in a .business enterprise in
Plymouth, according to friends of
his family.
After graduation from high
school; Harry Hake worked on
the family farm and soon became
married. That contract, he de-
clares, was the only mistake he
ever made. With the dissolution
of his domestic status, the young

Lidgard Brothers
formerly

,
man entered upon a career of
travel working as a migrant
farm-hand. T h a t experience
marked the beginning of his
break with society and family
ties and he never again settled
down until he took up his sol-
itary life on ancestral acreage in
Stark district.
The hermit works on a small
garden plot a few hours each
morning and evening when the
sun is down to raise a little corn.
The aged recluse suffers from a
"sunstroke" complex and never
leaves his bare but during the
heat of the day. He gathers food
from the land as best he can and
picks berries out of the woods on
his property. The acreage also
includes a stream which fur-
nishes fresh, spring water. The
only thing for which he depends
upon the outside world is his
daily delivery of a pint of milk.
Stored outside his shack home is
a litter of scrap iron which he
collects as a "junk dealer," but
it is doubtful if the old man
makes a livelihood from this en-
terprise.
