Do You remember that soldier you saw
on the bus with his arm in a cast? Do
you recall that sailor you saw hobbling
down the street on a cane? Have you no-
ticed the list of casualties printed from time
to time in this newspaper?
What you are asked to do, compared to
the boys who are really in it, is easy. But
your job is mighty important, too. Once
again you are asked to BUY AT LEAST ONE
EXTRA HUNDRED DOLLAR WAR BOND. A
Series E War Savings Bond will cost you
only $75 and you get back at maturity in
ten years, $4 for every S3 invested; this is
the least you can do. Invest more if you
possibly can -5200, S300, $400. Remember,
it all comes back with interest.
So play square—do your share. HE DID!

THE importance of water in
the manufacturing of some strate-

by the fact that nearly ten gal-

gallon of gasoline, 300 gallons to
make one gallon of alcohol and
80 tons to manufacture one ton
of ingot steel.

Warns About Fires
In Township
Unusual weather conditions and
carelessness on the part of people
in general were cited by fire fight-
ers throughout the state as the
chief causes of numerous grass
fires which have threatened many
rural homes and .put an unneces-
sary strain on firemen and equip-
ment ... the Pontiac fire depart-
ment put out nine grass fires in
one -day . . . the Livonia fire de-
partment put out seven in one
day . . . the Warren township
fire •aepariment put out 25 grass
fires last week . . . three small
children were trapped in a blazing
field fire and escaped with super-
ficial burns and were very for-
tunate to escape with their lives.
Fire, not under control, is still
one of our worst enemies, destroy-
ing $30,0 0,wo worth of property
in the United Stales the first 10
months of 1943 . . . if you knew
someone that was stealing $I,-
uu'u,OuU a day from this country
what would you do about it? Well,
you DO KNOW and what ARE
you doing about it? . just this
week a church burned in Marine
City with a $20,000 loss . a
grass fire in the neighborhood of
Ypsilanti threatened 400 acres of
land . . . a lumber company in
Warren township burned with a
loss of $40,0.00 . . . three people
were burned to death in a small
town in Michigan when their stove
exploded ... and $2,000,000 worth
of mechanical parts and supplies
were destroyed in our own Fort
Wayne ... most all of these fires
could have been avoided in some
way ... why do you allow them
to take place? . . . You, in the
long run, are paying for them
. can you afford it?
The local fire department has
done a splendid job and much of
the time and energy of the fire-
men is given without any com-
pensation. Local residents are
urged to keep fire calls at a
minimum.

On the battle fronts, our men are putting
every last ounce of effort into the grim
job of ending the war at the earliest pos-
sible moment. We at home can do no less.
YOUR fighting can take the form of war
bonds. Every extra bond you buy is an
added blow against the Axis. Every dol-
lar you put into the Fourth War Loan
Drive is one more weapon in a mighty
arsenal to overwhelm the enemy and
bring a decision sooner.
In this crucial battle, let's concentrate

these objects made by the skill of
the workmen range from simple
articles made in standard form to
objects of art. Because of the diffi-
culty in administering price control
and the relative unimportance of
the objects in the cost of living it
was deemed best to exempt them.
