The children enjoy ,peppy camp and patriotic songs. Their voices fairly ring out with "Johnny Got a Zero" and "The More We Get Together." - Atthe end of this -period the Targe group is divided into three smaller groups, the Reds, Whites and Blues. These groups proceed with regular camp activities throughout the day, and rotate in such a way that all children have the opportunity to partici- pate in all- activities: The period between singing hour and noon is filled with all kinds of organized games, story- telling, dramatics and . tennis. Mrs. R. W, Mason, Mrs. Irving Benson, Mrs: Robert Bruce, Mrs. Robert Griffiths, and Miss Fitch, ,Robert the Wayne county library service have charge of the story- telling periods.

The day's activity closes with the handicraft hour. Miss Char- lotte •Petrosky, a resident of the Gardens, and an art teacher in Detroit schools, is in charge. She is .being assisted by Mrs. G. R. Hamilton, Mrs. V. H. Smale, Mrs. C. A. Holth, and Mrs. E. O. Whittington. Leather purses, belts, and necklaces, woodwork, weaving, and other things, keep small hands interested and busy. The "Summer Fun Program" will close Friday afternoon, July 23, with an open house for par- ents. At this time an effort will be made to show the activities; of the two weeks. The program will include a handcraft exhibit, and a singing and dramatic Pres- entation. All 'parents and inter- ested friends are cordially urged to be present. It is the sincere wish of the committee that hob- bies and interests will be devel- oped that will carry on through- out the summer and the coming year. —0- Judge Gardens In Township The first judging of the vic- tory gardens in Rosedale Gar- dens was completed last Thurs- day, Mrs. A. T. Petersen, victory garden chairman announces. The next judging .will take place after August 20.

Rosedale Gardens along with the rest of the township has been highly complimented by the judges for the quality as well as the quantity of gardens, and all residents having gardens, are re- quested to keep up the good work.

Let's all try and not have another fire for a like, period—don't get care- less—clean up your rubbish in the home and outside—and keep it clean. That a small fire started under a pier apron on the San Fran- cisco waterfront and before the fire was extinguished the follow- ing pieces of apparatus were needed to do the job: ten fire- boats, 17 pumpers, six ,ladder - trucks, five compressors, and 40 firemen were overcome by smoke? I That the fire loss figure for 1942 amounted to $314,295,0-00.00 as compared to $303,895,000.00 for 1941? Police officials consider arson to be the third on the list of ser- ious or major crimes which in- clude murder and rape? That there is a Resusitator at the fire hall ready to be taken anywhere in the township for protection against asphyxial death, drowning, or shock? - The fire department is as near You as the nearest phone. The number is 2555. Giving the wrong location of a fire loses valuable minutes that might save hundreds of dollars —when making a call give the number of the Dhone from which you are making the call, the number of the house if possible, if not, give the street and nearest main cross street or road and if ` possible have someone near these main cross streets to further di- rect the fire apparatus -as well as keep spectators from blocking up a road to the fire. Keep all these things in mind and it will help the department to do a better job for YOU. Open Campfire Girls Day Camp The first Day Camp of the Campfire Girls of Livonia Center was held on Thursday, July 8 at the home of Mrs. Edward Ham- ilton of Rayburn road, Coventry Gardens. All the Campfire girls and the Bluebirds in the com- munity attended. The program opened at 10:30 a.m.. with flag raising ceremonies and a song fest. This was follow- ed by lunch which the girls cook- ed themselves over an outdoor fire. There was then a rest per- iod, after which all settled down to the handicraft work. Many pieces of handicraft were com- pleted, and all will be judged. at the .final day camp. later in the summer. The next day camp will be held on July 28, the place where it is to be held will be announced later. New Board Members Chosen At the annual school board elections held throughout the township on Monday, July 11, the following men were elected: Stark school reelected -J. Gage as their treasurer; Livonia Cen- ter elected Paul' H. Rieker to their. board,: and Rosedale -Elm district reelected G. Bentley and R. Birdsall and elected J. B. Folsom as a new member re- placing R. Randall whose term of office had expired. Mrs, Edith Durbin, of Ravine Drive, entertained at a luncheon shower, Mrs. William Naas, the guest of honor, Mrs. James Kin- ahan, Mrs. William Larsen, of Detroi-r; Mrs. Clyde Metsger, Mrs. Edward Brightmier, Mrs. Vincent Fox, of Ferndale„ and Mrs. William Davis. o Buy Warr Bonds On Slaughtering Every local slaugh.erer and butcher who holds a permit to slaughter livestock for the sale of meat will be required, by July 15, to submit evidence to sub- stantiate. the amount of livestock slaughtered during the period upon which his current quota is based, the WFA said today. Purpose of the ruling is to es- tablish a more uniform system of permits and quotas and also to ad• just those quotas already issued in such a way that they will be standardized in all sections of the country. Because of the rapidity with which the permits orginally were issued, the policy in grant- ing the quotas varied somewhat from section to section. - . The new requirements is con- tained in FDO 27.3.. Submission of the evidence must be made to the County War Meat Committee of the County War Board where the permit was issued. The evi- dence must substantiate the amount of slaughterer's 1941 slaughter, or, if . he did not slaughter durnig the correspond- ing period of 1941, he must sub- mit -evidence of his 1942 slaughter. The permit of any local slaughterer or butcher who fails to furnish such evidence on time may be revoked by the Director of FDA. The evidence, which will form the basis for any neces- sary adjustments in quotas or quota basis; may include: The ap- plicant's books or record; records or statements of persons from whom he has bought livestock; grading certificates or inspection records; or any other evidence which the applicant considers necessary.

Page 4 THE LIVONIAN Wednesday; July 21, 1943 Plan Hospital For Out -County Wayne Develops Plan To Aid Sick The board of county super- visors has leased the "B" build- ing at Eloise to the People's Com- munity Hospital, Inc., for a nom- inal rental of $1 a year, the building to be used as a private hospital for residents in western Wayne county. Under terms of the agreement, the corporation agrees .to re- model the :building to make it suitable for use as a :private hos- pital. Remodeling of the building will be paid for by the corpora- tion, which is now planning an extensive campaign for indus- trial and private contributions to a $100,000'fund.. The corporation will pay the county 65 cents per day for each patient, with payment to be bas- ed on a minimum of 85 patients. Beds and bedding will be paid for at the rate of 10 cents per patient per day, and other charges also will be made and paid for by the corporation. It is planned to use all of the facilities of Eloise in the opera- tion of the .private hospital, but the actual management of the "B" building will be handled by a staff to be employed by the corporation. In addition to the $10.0,000 fund which the hospital corpor- ation will seek to raise by public and private subscription, the cor- poration also has appealed to the federal government for grants of $34;000 to remodel the building at Eloise and $45,000 which is the anticipated deficit for operation of the hospital for one year. A committee from the corpora- tion already has talked to pub- Iic health officials of the army in Chicago, and has made a for- mal application to the War Pub- lic Works for the funds. The plan has the approval of the public health authorities. At the close of the war, the hospital corporation contemplates the construction of a half million dollar hospital with 500 beds to be erected in the Wayne neigh- borhood to serve all of western Wayne county.

The area to be covered by the hospital includes Northville, Plymouth, Canton, Romulus, Dearborn, Van Buren, Sumpter, Livonia, Nankin, Huron and Taylor townships. Any medical doctor, in good standing will be free to operate in the hospital, according to the standards of the corporation. Two plots of ground already have been offered--to—the corpora- tion for the construction of a new hospital. One of them is south and the other north of Wayne. Officials of the hospital cor- poration point out that the need for a hospital in western Wayne county is urgent. It will serve an area of about 141,000 people. Only 96 beds are now available in the area in which these 141,- 000 people reside. Because of war work in this area, the increased likelihood of accidents, the in- creased birth rate, mit is felt by officials of the hospital board Save with Safety at your Rexall Drug Store Cecil H.

The federal government esti- mates that one hospital bed is necessary for each 250 persons, but at the moment there are only beds in this area to provide one for each 1;500 persons. It also was pointed out that before the war there were 35 doctors in this area, but eight of these have not been inducted into the armed services, further increasing the need for hospital service. Mrs. Ruth Whipple is the Plymouth representative on the board of directors of the corpor- ation, which had its inception though efforts of the Wayne Board of Commerce. The corpor- ation is headed by Charles B. Cozadd, an attorney, of Belle- ville, as :president; Robert Hol- land, mayor of Garden City as vice president, and Mrs. _ Wilda Bentley of Rosedale Gardens_ as secretary. Other members of the board are Mrs. Mollie Lawrence of Northville, John S. Haggerty, Harley Smith and E. J. German, all of Wayne; Garnett Bunnell of Romulus, Alfred S. Kemp of Inkster and Milton Adams of New Boston. Here in Plymouth, City Man- ager Clarence Elliott expressed the opinion that while the hos- pital .plan is a good one, and will help a rather bad hospital situation, it still would not solve Plymouth's hospital problem. He said Plymouth still needs a hos- pital of its own. On. -Land.
