Well, all I had to do was step across the street to my office where I had some recent F. B. I. figures in my desk drawer. Why, on the average, those three states have a worse crime record than the whole rest of the country. And there's a good sound reason for it, Bill. There's no such thing as a"dry community. It's only a ques- tion of whether liquor is sold legally or.il- legally. And when it's sold illegally it means bootleggers, gangsters and more crime."

Plan more oven meals in your electric range. Preparing a complete meal in the oven at one time is economical: The same amount of elec- tricity cooks meat, potatoes, vegetables and a pud- ding. Use LOW heat to finish most of your surface cooking, after foods have reached the steam- ing point. When the cooking operation is almost completed, the heat may be turned completely OFF. Stored heat in the unit finishes the cooking opera- tion. * * * Don't waste electricity heating up a large quantity of water when cooking vegetables: Half - a -cup of water is ample. LIGHTING. Dust steals light and wastes electricity. Wipe all lamp bulbs frequently, also reflector bowls and ceiling fixtures. Use the right size lamp in the right socket. Dark colored lamp shades soak up light. Use light-colored shades wherever possible, or try fitting dark shades with a white lining. APPLIANCES. Don't leave appliances turned on when temporarily not in use (your electric iron or toaster, for example). Pull the plug, and connect the appliance again later when you are ready to use it. Defrost your refrigerator regularly. Don't over- crowd your refrigerator. Unless the motor is hermet- ically sealed, have it oiled and inspected regularly. Be sure to locate your refrigerator away from heat sources, and allow adequate air circulation all around the refrigerator. The Detroit Edison Company.

Food For Thought "Eat the right food daily" is a slogan that should -be on the tongue of every American. It should be more than a slogan—it should be a guide to good eating habits—to better nutrition for every man, woman and child. Since there is enough food in this country to provide essential nutritional requirements for ev- ernone, malnutrition should not exist. Food rationing should bring about higher standards of nutrition and should provide all with proper food elements. Not only is the physical health of the world dependent on good nutri- tion, but, indirectly, so is its men- tal 'health. Most people in the 'United States .have enough food to eat, but many do not have the right kind of food. Under the office of civilian de- fense, there are organized all over the country, committees on nu- trition, whose puropse it is to make clear the necessity for and means of providing well balanced meals for American families. These committees are made up of professional nutritionists and home -makers. They sponsor food demonstrations, publicity, and other educational and informa- tional projects. Of the first million selectees called up for military service, 50,000 were rejected because of defects that could be definitely at- tributed to conditions of poor nu- trition. If so many of these young men in the prime of life are mal- nourished, the percentage may be even greater in other groups— specially among older people. It is the patriofic-duty of every cit- izen to avail himself of the priv- ileges of this great country. -Among these privileges, certain- ly, that of learning .how to plan -- an adequate diet and how--to--get the most good from the food he eats, should be , to -o important to be passed up. -- Avail yourselves of the oppor--- tunities you have of making choices—especially choices which are to your advantage. Your coun- try is one of the few in the world, today whose citizens have that privilege! * Buy War Bonds * MIRROR BEAUTY SALON Open Thursday Eve- ning by Appointment WELLA KOLESTRAL° OIL TREATMENTS For Reconditioning Hair (Dandruff and Dry Hair) Livonia 2512 Louise Peck 32007 Plymouth Road Rosedale Gardens .Red Cross News More blood donors needed. Daily, the demand increases for transfusions to save the lives of the fighting men of our army and navy and also those of the United Nations. The wounds of this war are often from high explosive or burns Even -if a man does not actuallylose blood from an open wound, _ nearly every badly in- jured person suffers from shock. Vital liquid flows from the blood vessels into the damaged tissues and unless this loss is replaced the patient begins to die. An im- mediate transfusion of blood will save the life of those suffering from open wounds or shock in many instances. To produce this miraculous "blood bank" thousands and thousands of loyal Americans are giving their blood at blood banks over the United States. Join your other patriotic fel- low townsmen by donating a pint of your blood for emergency use by our army and navy doctors. The next blood bank will be held in Livonia township on Mon- day, March 15 from 3:30 o'clock to 8 p.m. at the Wilcox school on Middlebelt road near Six Mile road. Transportation can be ar- ranged for by calling Livonia 2012 on Monday morning. 0 - Keep always with you, wher- ever your course may lie, the company of great thoughts.—H. H. Asquith. Pierson P. T". A. Our monthly meeting was held on Thursday, February 25th at which time Miss Emma DuBord, Wayne County home demonstra- tion agent, gave a talk on nutri- tion which was very interesting. She quoted figures from the Gal- lup poll which amazed the listeners; these figures pertained to the use of the various foods and those lacking in the idea of most people today. Two representatives of the 'Cubs attended the meeting and informed the parents that a Cub den could now be started in the immediate neighborhood of the school if enough persons were available to become interested in the work. We have the boys but need den mothers and fathers. When you are approached on this project, please give it serious thought and make your feelings known. The meeting was closed and then the Founder's Day birthday cake was lighted after which it was cut and served with coffee and sandwiches. Marie Siclovan Publicity chairman.
