They have been working very hard during their lunch hour and after school these past few days and their huge pile of scrap in. front of the school is the troof of their ef- forts. According .to Harry S. Wolfe, who has been traveling around the township looking over the results of the scrap collection, the Cooper school kids are the champ "scrappers" of Livonia township as they have accumulat- ed the largest pile of scrap metal in the township. The children were not satis- fied that they had done enough toward wiping out the "Rats" across the ocean from us, so they held a •bond party last Friday ,evening, September 25. The party had a very successful turnout and over $80.00 worth of defense stamps were sold. Livonia Boy Safe in Sinking Wilbur H. Fowler Home on Furlough Machinist Mate Second Class Wilber H.

How to and make your rooms 0 L, • If you could get 25 per cent more light in your rooms without spending ONE -CENT more for electricity, would you, be interested? In many homes it is pos- sible to do exactly that. And it is due to the fact that dust steals light ... robbing you of part of the electricity you pay for. One-fourth of your light is far too great a tribute to pay —and you can avoid it by cleaning your lamps and fixtures regularly. It's easy to overlook this important task, because dust collects on bulbs that are hidden under lamp shades or in semi - enclosed lighting fixtures. And these lights lose their brightness little by little, day by day, so that you scarcely notice it. To keep your lighting at top efficiency, wipe all lamp bulbs: frequently (also lamp reflector bowls). Dust your lamp shades inside and out. Use the RIGHT SIZE BULBS in your lamps and fixtures—not too large, not too small. Replace dark -colored shades with light shades with white linings, to reflect more light. You'll be amazed at the difference in your rooms— how much brighter and more cheerful they are — if you follow these simple rules, The Detroit Edison Co.

Plymouth, Mich, Urge Women To Take Early Bus Officials of the Plymouth Coach company today made an appeal to Plymouth women to avoid riding whenever possible on the late afternoon buses from Detroit. The bus line is taxed to a capacity from 4 until li o'clock in the afternoon. Edward Sinta, manager of the line has asked local women to either take earlier or later buses to Plymouth from Detroit. Mr. Sinta warns that with the increased demands being made on the lines by defense workers that it will be almost impossible for local women with packages to even find standing room on the trips out from Detroit. He suggests that women either Page 3 leave Plymouth earlier in the morning and return home before 4 p.m., or that they wait in the city and come back after the heavy traffic is over. Since De- troit stores are insisting that shoppers carry most of their smaller packages, bus room is at a premium and people are urged to make whatever purchases pos- sible from their local merchants.

That probably means demolition bombs.

These are the cases for which the Motor Corps would be responsible. They must be transported to First Aid and --Cas- ualty stations and thence to hos- pitals. Doctors and nurses would be especially dependent on the Motor Corps for they are the only transportation service affil- iated with OCD."

That will permit many applicants to obtain service on a temporary basis who otherwise might not be able to obtain it at all:. He suggested, however, that persons or firms planning to move consult first with the Telephone company to ascertain whether service will be available at their new locations. Welch said the plan is designed to afford service to the greatest possible number of persons want- ing it, at the same time comply- ing with orders of the War Pro- duction Board that adequate fa- cilities be reserved to meet in- creasing military, war-produ&ion and essential public needs. The telephone system cannot be ex- panded sufficiently to care for all increase of service demand, he added, because the materials required, such as copper and aluminum, are more urgently needed for weapons of war. "Rather than holding ourselves to arbitrary estimates of the ex- tent of future essential demands, and denying service to civilians, we propose to make service avail- able to as many as possible by of- fering temporary contracts to ap- plicants", Welch explained. "Whether it will become neces- sary to withdraw service on a 48- hour notice will depend upon fac- tors associated with the service increase in a particular area, to- gether with the growing needs of military organizations and war - production industries and for es- sential public purposes. Every ef- fort will be made, however, to avoid such withdrawals. It may even become necessary to request individual -line users to take party -line service so others who need telephones can have them or keep them." Announcement of the new pol- icy came as restrictions on new installations were extended to three more exchanges — Reese, Farmington, and Galien. Other exchanges where the service res- trictions have been necessary are Sault St. Marie, Livonia, Coloma, Zeeland, Watervliet, Big Rapids, Hillsdale, Ann Arbor, Mt. Clemens Ishpeming, Republic, Kalamazoo - Lake office area, Pontiac -Com- merce office area, Napoleon, Vicksburg, and a number of cen- tral office areas in Detroit. Livonia P.T.A.

Issues Warning To Duck Hunters Lest hunters take the lifting of the ban on wood duck shooting to be an invitation to kill the legal number allowed ,the conser- vation department's game men are pointing out that the change in the law was made with quite a different intent. Chief purpose of the change, they say, was to avoid penalizing the novice for an unintentional mistake in identifying duck species, and to prevent waste if the mistake was made. It definite- ly was not made to encourage wood duck shooting, they declare. Rigidly protected for many years because it was believed to be in danger of extermination, the beautiful wood duck still is one of the better protected species. Hunters may not have more than one in a day's bag, and though it is lawful to have a two days' bag of other ducks in pos- session limit on wood ducks re- mains just one. Keep 'em roiling!
