Some Questions On
the Consolidation of
the Township Schools
Meetings have been held at
Wilcox, Livonia Center, New-
burg, Stark and Rosedale Gar-
dens and petitions are being cir-
culated in these districts. The
next meeting will be held at the
Pierson school at Seven Mile and
Farmington roads, on October 25
at 8 p. in. These meetings are
open to anyone who is interested
and if you did not hear it at your
own school by all means come to
a meeting at some other school.
The following ten questions
have been asked and answered
and any other questions you may
have we would appreciate hear-
ing. There are questions in
everyone's mind in regard to this
matter and they should be
brought out to the public as we
are all interested in this project.
If you are against consolidation
we would appreciate hearing
about it. Any point you may
wish to bring out will be dis-
cussed at these meetings or if you
want to write to Mr. Bakewell
at Newburg or to Mr. Orr at Pier-
son, they would appreciate hear-
ing fom you.
November first is the meeting
scheduled for Elm school at 8
p. M.
November eighth is the meet-
ing at the Briggs school at 2 p. in.
Question I: Is it necessary to
consolidate to secure a high
school in the township?
Answer: It is not impossible
for an individual district to or-
ganize a high school, but under
the present laws of the state of
Michigan and the rulings of the
Municipal Finance Commission
of the state, bond issues are lim-
ited to five years. This makes it
prohibitive from a tax standpoint
for an individual district to con-
struct a building comparable to
other high schools in the sur-
rounding districts. Also, the
Federal government will assist in
financing the construction of a
township high school, whereas
they will not aid in an individual
district.
Question II: Is it possible to
consolidate for high school pur-
poses, but maintain the various
districts as they now are for ele-
mentary purposes?
Answer: There is no possibility
of doing this under present laws.
Question III: Do we need a
high school in the Township? '
Answer: When the war closes,
and some of those who have left
or are leaving high school before
graduation return from the armed
services and defense plants to
complete their high school
courses, neighboring village high
schools will be overcrowded and
our children will be excluded.
Question IV. Could a high
school be constructed during the
war?
Answer: Probably not, but if
plans are already to proceed im-
mediately at the close of the war,
Federal help will in all probabil-
ity be available.
Question V: How much would
it cost to operate a high school
in the township?
Answer: Since the state would
pay $81.50 for each high school
pupil and $20.00 more for each
seventh and eighth grader than
it now pays and would also pay
for all transportation, both ele-
mentary and high school, it is
not probable that the actual op-
eration of the high school would
be much, if any, tax burden to
the taxpayers of the township
district.
Question VI: What would the
tax rate of the new township dis-
trtict have to be if consolidated?
Answer: Under the fifteen mill
amendment, the rate for opera-
tion could not exceed $8.40 un-
der present conditions without a
2/3 vote of the electors of the
township district. The debt serv-
ice rate should not be more than
$2.00.
Question VII: What other
changes are brought about by
consolidation in addition _to pro-
vision of high school facilities?
Answer: All elementary build-
ings would be used as now except
that they would be under the di-
rection of one township board of
education instead of seven as at
present. Children . could be trans-
ferred from crowded rooms to va-
cant rooms and transportation
would be paid by the state.
Question VIII: How is the
board of education of the town-
ship selected?
Answer: By a vote of the elec-
tors of the township district.
Question IX: What would hap-
pen to terms of the school board
members of present districts?
Answer: They would automati-
cally be relieved of further serv-
ice if consolidation was voted.
Question X: What is the recom-
mendation of the educational au-
thorities in the state?
Answer: The Governor's Plan-
ning Commission strongly en-
dorses larger school districts as
small districts are uneconomical
and difficult to administer. Con-
siderable savings can be made in
purchases, etc., in larger units.

Never -Ask Soldiers
To Tell Of Their
Experiences In Conflict
Those who attended the meet-
ing of the Wayne County Health
Guild in the staff room of Eloise
Hospital on the afternoon of Oc-
tober 7 heard a highly interest-
ing and practical talk by Miss
Melinka Here, who is associated
with the Detroit Visiting Nurse
Association. Miss Here is a spe-
cialist in mental hygiene and,
spoke on that phase of the sub-
ject relating to war conditions.
In the present war, more than
in any previous war, every ef-
fort is being made by the vari-
ous branches of the service,
through their- psychiatriststo,
prevent any man who is likely
to develop nervous disorders
from being inducted into the
service. Each man is closely
watched during his "boot" train-
ing and again when he enters
combat to see how he reacts. The
reason for so many casualties
among our medical men in this
war is because they are in the
front lines watching the men.
If they see a man breaking un-
der the strain it is often. pos-
sible by a word to set them right
and send them back into the
fighting.
iSpeaking of the treatment of
our boys when they, return from
service, Miss Hera said there is
one thing we must never do. We
must never urge them to talk of
thei± experiences. It is posi-
tively cruel to ask them to re-
live moments when they have
been so near to death. If they
like to talk of their experiences
that is a different matter.
She deeply deplores the many

cannot help being greatly chang-
ed by their experiences in war
and in same cases will not even
care to continue in the marriage
relation when they return. If
children are born to this union,
the effect on the child is much
the same as -in the case of di-
vorced parents. The child needs
the love and the sense of secur-
ity provided by the father as
well as the mother, if a feeling
of frustration is not to result.
If there is a grandfather or a
brother who can supply a mea-
sure of paternal love to the child,
results may be more favorable.

THE OLD JUDGE SAYS...'
Special attention given to all defense work-
ers at any hour.
"You were absolutely correct in making the
statement you did, George... not a drop of
whiskey has been distilled in this country in
over a year."
"That's what I told the boys down at the
lodge, Judge, but they were so surprised I
thought maybe I was wrong."
"No you weren't, George. The truth of the
matter is that a year before Pearl Harbor,
the beverage distilling industry voluntarily
offered its facilities to the government. Many
companies started to produce alcohol for war
purposes almost immediately. And just as
soon as the government's requirements in-
creased, the distilling facilitiesof the entire in-
dustry were converted 100% to the produc-
tion of war -alcohol and nothing else. Asa mat-
ter of fact, the beverage distilling industry
is producing about half of the government's
needs for this vital war material. And that's
a 24 hour a day, 7 day a week job, George."
"I'm glad I told you about my talk with
Sam, Judge.You've given me a lot more facts
on that subject."

Today any waste of electricity is as
serious as wasting rubber or gasoline or
other critical war materials. When you
save electricity, you save coal. Here are
practical ways to _save electricity in your
home:
(1:) Turn off lights in rooms not occupied,
and floor or table lamps not immediately
in use. (2) Wipe lamp bulbs frequently,
also reflector bowls and ceiling fixtures.
Dust wastes as much as one-third of your
light. (3) Flaring lamp shades do a better
job of spreading light than straight -sided
shades. The wider the opening at top and
bottom, the more useful light is directed
into the room. (4) Avoid dark - colored
lamp shades (they soak up light), or try
fitting them with white linings. Use good,
white paper and fasten seam with Scotch
tape. White linings will often increase the
amount of light from the lamp by as much
as 50 per cent. (5) Whenever possible,
make floor and table lamps serve more
than one person for reading or sewing.
A single lamp on a table, for example,
can provide light for chairs on hoth sides
of it. The Detroit Edison Company.

$1 ,000,000 Can't Replace These Eyes
Money doesn't mean a thing where your eyes
are concerned. And in this day. and age .. .
especially with the strain of extra activity
all around, you should be extra careful of
you eyes. A little care and foresight will go
a long way. If you feel that something is
wrong . . . have even the slightest doubt
about your eyes ... you owe it to yourself
to have your eyes checked.
