Thieves Enter Two Gas Stations A series of gasoline staton'rob- beries in Livonia occurred last', Sunday night. Sheriff's officers are investi-', gating breakings at the Livrance' service station at Six Mile and Middlebelt roads and at the ser- vice station operated by ,Joe .Cac- cia at Inkster and Joy roads. At the Liveranlce station, the principal robbery was of gasoline and fuel oil coupons. All cou- pons taken in Tor gasoline from Saturday business were taken there along with about 300 fuel oil coupons. The robbers failed to take a couple of tires and batteries in the station. They did ransack everything else, and took about two dollars in change which had been left in the cash drawer. Although the station is not open on Sunday, Mr. Liverance was at the station Sunday morn- ing, so the robbery must have oc- curred sometime Sunday night. Fewer details are available on the Caccia robbery, but it is un- derstood that in addition to gas- oline coupons, some tires and other accessories were taken there. The first meeting of the Rose- dale Gardens women's club will be a 7:00 dinner Thursday, Sept- ember 14th, held -at the Commun- ity House. Mrs. Francis Almayer of Redford, will display arrange- ments of fruit, vggetables and flowers.

"Yes, and I can give you an example of how true that is, Fred. In World War I the chief uses of alcohol produced for war pur- poses were found in smokeless powder, medi- cal supplies and chemical warfare materials. In this war the need for this product is far more vital because it is also used as a fuel to propel torpedoes, to make shatterproof glass for airplane windshields and instrument cov- ers, to make lacquers used in camouflaging equipment and as a base for synthetic rubber needed for tires, gas masks, paratroop equip- ment and dozens of other things. "Every time I think of it, Fred, I realize how fortunate we were in having a beverage distilling industry in existence when war broke out... ready and eager to convert 100% to the production of this critically needed war product.

Then, in winter you could use cold outdoor tempera- ture to heat your home! Actually, the idea isn't new. It originated with Lord Kelvin over 50 years ago. A few installations have been made—mostly in more temperate climates than Michigan's. So far, the idea isn't practical for general use, but our research engi- neers have it in their "active" file. Someday new developments may transfer it from the realm of experiment into a practical machine. 4 i SUMMER SNACK ...

Putting the Axis "on the griddle" is more than a figure of speech in southeastern Michigan. The uninterrupted flow of electricity to thousands of war plants has made possible new pro- duction records in all sorts of vital war materials. And one of the things that assures this uninterrupted electric supply is the "power grid" or network which covers all this area. If for any reason there is a power failure somewhere in the system, the "grid" connection makes it possible to restore service immediately by feeding in power from another point. Should a turbine in one plant shut down, other Edison plants pick up the load and keep the electricity flowing. The far- flung Edison network is interconnected with the Consumers Power Company on the west, and with the Detroit municipal power plant, lending added strength to the combined power arid. �Im 1 e&ed V LGfii" Ca.
