MICHIGAN Phone Plymout,- 16 Vol. 4 4WNo. 44 Wednesday, December 22, 1943 Fire destroyed the farm and out buildings of Alva Whited, 8410 Joy road, on November 30. The loss was considerable as it included a Dodge pickup truck, 7 tons of hay, one calf, and a quantity of corn and a number of chickens. Several cows were removed before the arrival of the department. The home was not damaged. The fire was believed to have been started by children playing in the barn late in the afternoon. No estimate of insur- ance was obtained. Eire Destroys rmenter Home Fire dwesproyed the residence of V. O. Parmenter, 28055 West Six Mile road, Saturday afternoon. Much time could have been saved and there would have been less loss to the building had the fire call come direct to the fire de- partment. As it happened, the call was originally made to the Detroit Fire Department, who re- layed it to Redford Fire Depart- ment who in turn relayed it to Livonia Fire Department; also the firemen of both Redford and Livonia were hampered by lack of water and both trucks ran out of water that they carry, soon af- ter their arrival, and had to go over a half mile to a hydrant to replenish their booster tanks. In the meantime, the fire obtained added, fury, consequently very little of the building was saved. Here is another case of where great loss might have been pre- vented had residents known - the fire department number and call- ed Livonia 2-555 immediately. The men of the Livonia Fire De- partment wish" to thank kind neighbors who went to the trou- ble of serving hot coffee to the men after having been there over five hours. The neighbors are al- so to be thanked for taking in the family of Mr. Parmenter for the time being until other hous- ing arrangement can be made. —a— ­ POINTS NEEDED FOR TONGUE Ration points are required to buy all varieties of tongue, and no types of this meat may be sold point -free, the OPA said recently. Some consumers apparently be- lieve tongue can be purchased without points, because beef "long cut" tongue was removed from the current table of consumer ,point.values for rationed meats. "Long -cut" beef tongue, OPA ex- plained-, is an untrimmed type which is not sold at,retail.
