Suffocating fish crowd about the air holes for oxygen, and more may die in these concen- trations than if they remained evenly distributed about the lake, it is said. Aerating the water by pumping it into the air also has proved futile. On one small Washtenaw coun- ty lake investigators this winter are checking the effect of keeping lake ice clear of snow, by scrap- ing or flooding, so it can tran$mit light to lake vegetation. Two or three inches of snow is sufficient to shut ou-t-sunlight, and without light the vegetation=both that rooted in the bottom and the mi- croscopic plants suspended in the water itself—reverse their custo- mary action and use up oxygen instead of producing it, slowly depleting the fishes' supply.

A drive for larger purchase of defense stamps during Thrift Week had to be postponed be- cause of small attendance during the heavy snowfall. However, the following week a record purchase was made. A large field next to the play- gground is affording recreation in the form of ice skating during the noon recess. Some of the rooms have begun practice for the Detroit News spelling bee. A declamation contest will take place early in March. The judges have not as yet been named. The contestants from the seventh and enghth grades are Catherine Eads, Betty Jean Edwards, Elain But- ler. Marie Henry, Bill Kachanko, Gordon Holmes, George Guest, Lee Gotham, Gene Parlseau. The last named was a winner last year. The eighth grade has' been do- ing some research study in U. S. history, using a new work book. The graduating class has made their selection of class pin. Catherine Eads, Ilene Vincent, Dolores Woltman, and Henry Armstrong had a record of per- fect attendance for the third six- week period. Catherine Eads has had perfect attendance since the opening of school in September. Ernest Liddle of the eighth grade has been home two weeks with pneumonia. The sixth grade has had perfect attendance one day this week. We had our Valentine party on Friday afternoon last week. Our first Valentine box became so full of envelopes that we had to make -a second one. The second box was well filled too. One of our fifth grade students, Donald Zunke has left. He was only here a short time, but we wish that he could have been in our room longer. The first and second grade children had a Valentine party Friday. Denver, Robert and Max- ine decorated the Valentine box. The first grade are enjoying their new number work books. The second grade are learning the big combinations more. Rural traffic in Michigan de- creased 2.3 per cent from Novem- ber, 1941, to November, 1942, ac- cording to a check by the Public Roads Administration.

War is bringing many new - type utensils into the kitchen of Mrs. Michigan. Soon she may have skillets made of heat -resis- tant glass, dust pans of molded fibre and clothes hangers of cor- rugated paperboard. As such ar- ticles made of critical steel and Page S other materials run short, sub- stitutes will step in to save the day. Glass, bone and non-critical plastics will take the front seat. 0 Baton Rouge, La., firemen, summoned to douse a burning auto,_ were urged to "save the tires and gasoline" by the owner, who was trying , to get his tires off.

Beginning Monday, Feb. 22 housewives will register for War Ration Book No. 2, which will allow a total of 48 "points" .for each member of the family for the month of March. Stamps will have values of 8, 5, 2, and 1. If a family has more than 5 cans per person on hand, stamps will be re- moved from the book in propor- tion to their excess holdings. Of- ficial point values will be made public as soon as stocks are "fro- zen." Registration probably will be held in local school houses and one member may register for the whole family. Some foods need not be counted. They include canned olives, can- ned meat and fish, picklers, relish, jellies, jams, preserves, spaghetti, macaroni, noodles and all home - canned foods. "Non -Deferable" Occupations Twenty-nine occupations were announced as "non -deferable" for any reason by the Bureau of Se- lective Service of the WMC on Feb. 2. All occupations in,an ad- ditional 19 manufacturing, 8 wholesale and retail, had 9 service activities were also called non - deferable. Any man in these oc- cupations is advised to get into a war job immediately. After Ap- ril 1 he will not be deferred if he stays in his present job. Even if he has dependents, he will still be drafted unless his work con- tributes to the war effort. Among the non -deferable oc- cupations are everything from bootblacks to gamblers. Bartend- ers, bar boys, beauty operators, bell boys, bus boys, butlers, char - men and cleaners, cosmeticians, custom tailors and furriers, danc- ing teachers, dishwashers, door- men, elevator operators and start- ers, errand boys, fortune tellers, gardeners. greens keepers, house- men, hairdressers, newsboys, night club managers and em- ployees, porters, private chauf- fers, soda dispensers, ushers, val- ets, and waiters with few excep- tions, are non -deferable regard- less of where the activity is found. Gasoline Credit Cards Credit cards may now be used at gasoline stations by vehicles carrying a "certificate of war nec- essity" or "T" ration stickers. Most other vehicles cannot use such credit cards. Formerly, stations sell gasoline to all vehicles only operating 24 hours a day could during 12 hours a day and after that only to those with "T" stick- ers. Anyone who has applied for- a "certificate of war necessity" may get gasoline pending the ar- rival of the certificate by notify- ing his local War Price and Ra- tioning Board. Coupons sufficient for his needs will be issued for the first and second three-month period at the same time. Lumber For Farms Almost six billion board feet of lumbQr a year will be required on American farms after the war, according to the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture's Forest Service. More than 5,000 million board feet will be needed for repair and replace- ment of buildings, 700 million feet_ for buildings on new farms, and 159 million for other uses.

Petroleum distribution order No. 3, which originally yimposed a 40 per cent cut on fuel oils for uses other than space heating and hot water heating has been amended -to leave out farm and mining ma- chiriery. Need More Cotton Fabrics Every major cotton mill in the country has been urged to produce more cotton fabric and yarns in 1943. Military requirements come first, but there must also be enough cotton fabrics to supply all essential civilian needs. Produc- ers of wool have also been urged to increase production by every means at their command. Price Support For Dry Peas To encourage the planting of 725,000 acres of peas, the U. -S. Dept. of Agriculture will sup- port the prices of dry peas at $5.50 for U. S. Grade No. 1, and $5.25 for U. S. Grade -No. 2, per hundred pounds, in bags, f.o.b. country shipping points. Desig- nated varieties are Scotch Green, Alaska, First and Best, Marrow- fat, and White Canada. Effective immediately, the Food Distribu- tion Administration will buy dry peas of those varieties at the prices announced. Coal If You Need It Coal producers and dealers have been told by .the Solid Fuels Co- ordinator to avoid any discrimi- nation in meeting the essential needs of civilians for coal where - ever the supply is low.
