The troop was notified by E. Silver of :the Detroit area council that it had been awarded recog- nition as a Star Troop. It is the first time that a troop of the, Plymouth district has been so signally honored. The Troop also won the Court of Honor Advance- ment trophy for ithe second suc- cessive time. The highlight of the evening was the awarding of the Eagle Badge to Warren Mason of RG -1. For several years, Warren has been one of our -outstanding Scouts and +his elevation to the highest rank of Scouting :has been richly deserved. The rank of Star Scout was at- tained 'by James Baker, George Waters and Donald MacGregor; First Class rank .by Dale Bent- ley, Richard Groth and Stewart Culbertson; Second Class rank by Harold Page and Bob Schwartz. The Rosedale Gardens Troop �as it stands today is a splendid example of a well balance Troop, three Eagle Scouts, ;at the top, several Tenderfoot Scouts at the bottom with all stages of advancement in between.

The second question, one which any.residen!t who has lived in the district 20 days or more may vote is, shall the limitation on the to- tal" amount of taxes which may be assessed against property in the district be increased for five ,years?

It's your badge of pa- triotism. practical for your A small bathroom heater does a good job for short periods of time—an hour or two. It's fine if used in a small space. Why isn't the idea practical for heating a whole housE? Or why can't electric heat be used throughout the house as a means of .raising the temperature from 65 to 70 degrees? There are two reasons. First, to achieve the cleanliness and convenience of electric heat, you sacrifice 80 per cent of the coal used to make electricity. Only ONE TON OUT OF FIVE is actually delivered to your home in the form of useful heat. This represents a loss—especi- ally when you can burn coal in your own furnace at 50 to 60 per cent efficiency. Even using electric heat to raise your house temperature S degrees is not recommended today. Second, electricity must be made the instant it is being used and on cold days each home would require about 80 times as much as it uses normally. The extra power plant equipment to produce enough electricity to heat houses on a cold day would be partly idle on a warmer day; and it would be completely idle all summer. But the expense would continue the year round, and to cover this all -year expense, the cost of electricity would be high. All the above pertains to house heating. Elec- tricity is, of course, highly economical for steadier uses like water heating, cooking or other uses of refined heat requiring closer control.

In the 'present emergency and vital need for meat, it is imper- ative -that :the farmers take steps to protect the health of their hogs. The farmers are being asked to increase :their pork products for spring ,about 10 percent. In order to obtain this goal every broad' sow and every litter of pigs must receive extra care and attention. Hog cholera is a highly conta- gious disease of swine caused by a virus which is present in the blood and secretion of the eyes and nose of a; 'hag affected with the disease. The symptoms of hog cholera may differ in different 'hogs and in different herds. Asa, result of these variations the disease has been said to exist in two forms: acute sand chronic. Pn the acute or severe type hogs sicken and die quickly. In :the chronic, or less severe type, hogs may be sick for weeks or months before they die. Usually not all hogs become suck at once but only a few, or or two, may refuse -to come out to feed. The sick ones when driven from their nest may, come, out with their backs arched :and they may -appear cold and shiver. As the disease progresses the sick hogs become gaunt or tucked -up in the flank land have a weak staggering gait, the weakness being the most noticeable in the hind legs. Con- stipation which is commonly present in the early stages of the disease is generally followed by diarrhea. As the disease -reaches its heighth red or purplish blot- ches may iappear on the skin of the. ears or belly and the inner surfaces of the legs. The temper- ature which is normally 101 to 103 F may range from 104 to 107 ,degrees or higher. Temperature may fall below normal in the late "The Friendliest Atmosphere in Northwest Detroit" Lahser Road at Grand River REDFORD OLID TIDIER TAVERN LIQUOR - BEER - WINE Modern and Old -Time Dancing Fri., Sat., Sun.

"We have had numerous re- ports that there ,are branches of some trees !hanging so low that it is necessary for .people to walk around ahem or stoop down to keep from having their hats knocked off. These trees are lo- cated inside the sildewalks and are on personal property, there- fore it is up to the property own- er to trim the -m," stated Mr. El - "There is going to be lots more walking on the part of people from now ion, and we should do everything within our power to make it not only good walking but safe walking. "The city has recently replaced and repaired many of the :broken sidewalks about town. We do not know as we can fix every walk in the city before it freezes up, but we are trying to repair as many :as we can.

Carbon monoxide is deadly when one-tenth of -one percent is in the air. It is colorless, odor- less and tasteless and being lighter ,than air it will rise into aageau aalern e so iauanq poonn Jo laoo 'e 'aaefuml Sllnel a, uzoal asnou c Safeguards against carbon mo- noxide in the home call for in- spections ,to see that chimneys are unclogged, that furnace and stove doors fit tightly, that there are no cracks in the fire domes of furnaces ,and stoves and that dampers are not permitted to close drafts completely. One of the ,best ways to find leaks in furnaces or stoves is to throw sulphur on the fire. The telltale odor of the burning sulphur will indicate the source of danger. As for the automobile, the precau- tions are easier. Just open garage doors and keep them open while the motor is running. Headache and nausea are early symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, but by the time the victim is aware -of the, danger, his muscular condition may pre- vent 'him from doing anything to save himself. A person sitting in the driver's seat of an auto - mo -bile may suddenly realize that he is being ,asphyxiated, but he may not have strength enough to reach out and turn off the ig- nition key. The best first iaid treatment for carbon monoxide poisoning is to give plenty of "pure oxygen to the patient. Fresh air will bring re- lief, but only 20 per cent of air is !oxygen. Most fire departments have resuscitators, but if none is available, the oxygen tank used by the welder at the corner gar- age should be put into use. A moderate flow -of pure oxygen in- to the victim's "breathing zone" will speed recovery. One cause of lost 'heat is the leakage 'of air around windows and doors. Weather-stripping or tightly -fitted storm windows and doors will -help curtail this loss. Closing the openings between wall studs from the cellar to the ,attic will save heat and eliminate ,a dangerous fire hazard. Such openings serve as chimneys for any fire starting in the basement. Fuel savings can be made and comfort improved by insulation over ceilings and ,attic 'walls. The same- insulation that protects from cold in winter raids in keep- ing 'the house cool in summer. If exterior :doors opening di- rectly into frequently occupied rooms can be moved so as to open into .entries or halls, much of the het in 'these rooms will be •p,aneS Stoves utilize fuel more effi- ciently than do fireplaces. Some- times fireplaces are made with a circulating system which sends more of the (heat out into the room instead of up the chimney. The heat of ' the kitchen range is sometimes utilized in the room above by providing a grafting in the floor. D Is it ready to go? A stalled car can be mighty serious.

Probably there will be far less than a hundred, although in past years this locality has sena more than 200 ;hunters into .the woods. Some are ,expecting to go up for only two ,or three days when the season opens, and return in plenty of time before gas ration- ing. Others say they may try and take enough gas with, ahem in or- der to get 'home, if they .get caught up north on the rationing date. A far less numtwr of licenses have been, issued than in many years. There might be :a sudden, last minute rush, but local license, dealers are not expecting it. Shells are difficult to get, and unless 'hunters had ,some left over from last year, they may have difficulty in getting :ammunition with. which to hunt. The deer hunting season can- not be advanced "to 'beat the gun" on gasoline rationing, P. J. Hoffmaster, director of the state conservation department, declar- ed .today in commenting upon proposals to open the season ear - her. The regular deer hunting sea- son is inflexibly fixed by law at November 15 to 30, and nothing less than an act of the legislature can change these dates to accom- modate hunters, Hoffmaster said. November 22, -the date tentative- ly proposed for the beginning of ,nationwide gasoline rationing, falls in the middle of this season, which laist year :attracted more than 220;000 licensed hunters. The director pointed out that the "discretionary ,power" act does not now give the conserva- tion commission authority ,to act in such a situation, but provides only for suspending or shorten- , ink the season on game animals threatened with depletion or ex- termination. Most concerned about the effect of ,gas rationing in deer season are Michigan's farthest north counties which normally get con- siderable income from furnishing accommodations for hunters. For the last .ten years, half of the hunters hunting in the Upper Peninsula have come from the Lower Peninsula, .and in some counties as high as 90 percent of the hunters have been southern Michigan. residents. ,Announce New Enlistments Here 28 Men Volunteer For Military Service The following enlistments of men: in this ,area in, ,the armed services sof the United States were made public ,today by draft board No. 61: Edgar Nash, 461 Jener Place, Plymouth, - Signal Corps, USN; Joseph E.

Wednesday, November 11, 1942 THE LIVONIAN Page 7 i � J Right this minute two popular Farmington bankers are having a lot of laughs about a couple of Livonian business men who held a private business session in re- gard to the banking business one day last week. Vice-president H. C. Knicker- bocker and cashier Byron Lap - ham at this writing are having the last laugh and rightly so thinks "ye editor." All this confusion came about when a group of Li-- vonia business men decided that something ought to be done to snake banking easier for the men who are working in defense plants. At the suggestion of one of them a committee was appointed to call at the Farmington State Bank and see what could be done about the matter. The only real solution that the committee could offer was that perhaps the bank might find it convenient to stay open one evening each week so that these people could do their banking after regular hours. The spokes- man for the committee appeared .at the bank and placed the re- quest in the hands of Mr. Lapham. Needless to say the intervie,.v ended and the whole thing was forgotten when Mr. Lapham in- formed the Livonia gentleman that the bank had been open every Friday evening during the last eight and one-half years be- tween the hours of 5.30 and 8:00 p.m. School Bond Sales "Boom" Upward Boom That is the sound of the stamp sales in the high school —going up!
