:bell,' Mrs. Charles .Skoglund, Mrs.
Sutton of Newburg and Mrs.
Kool. Mrs. M. B. Copley of Royal
Oak, state Moms president, gave
a -talk on Beaver Edwards, the
sculptor, and the ,making .of arti-
ficial limbs that are so lifelike that
one cannot tell. the artificial from
the real, even when you shake
hands with the individual who
has the artificial hand. The fingers
are flexible -and one can hold a
pencil or cigaret as easily as with
one's own hands. Mr. Edwards is
making these limbs for the Ida
Hibbard rehabilitation program.
The Moms of Livonia were the
first ones to donate to this fund,
having donated $25. Some time in
May Mr. Edwards is planning to
'give .a demonstration of these
limbs at the WWJ studio in De-
troit. The time and date -will be:
announced to Livonians as soon'
as obtained.
A series of training meetings'
for Cub leaders will be held at
the .Stark school starting Monday,

for six weeks and all Cub lead-
ers and- all who expect to be
leaders should attend the meet -
kings. This is the first time that
district 7 has been able to sup-
port its own training class.

All Men Under 26
Already Called
Into Service
Walter harms, •chairman of the
Plymouth selective service board,
said this week that all draft regis-
trants under 26 now have been
called up for their physical ex-
aminations, and that :all future
draft calls must be met with men
over 26 and those -boys'who have
just reached 1.8.
The processing of the men un-
der 25 followed orders from. state
and national headquarters of se-
lective service to take the younger
men first.
At the same time, if new calls
are to be made, ,the older men
must fill in.
Mr. Harms said there have been
a few requests from industry to
defer men under 26, who are con-
sidered essential in their jobs. The
last of the younger men will take
their physical examinations on
May 6, and presumably will fill
the June draft call.
Farmers who request defer-
ments are being scrutinized care-
fully by the draft boards to, make
certain they are producing all
they can produce. If they are not,
then they are put into the army.
Although the so-called "point
system" of classifying farm, pro-
ducers hase been abandoned as
a definite means of deferment, the
draft boards still use the system
as a gage for determining the pro-
ductive ability of farmers.
Some father and son combina-
tions are pro-aucing ^s high as 50
and 60 points. Others are produc-
ing less than the minimum of 32
points.
No longer is it possible for a
man about to be drafted to say
that he will buy sufficient live-
stock to make 16 points. He is
judged on what he is producing
at the time that the draft call
is made.
In other words, the army and
the nates need men, and although
some of them are still needed on
the home front, the call of the
armed services must be considered
first under present regulations.
No selective service board in
the nation has done a better job
than the Plymouth board. It's

The eighth grade class wishes
Lo leave behind them before grad
uation some of their art talent
in the form of some Junior Red
Cross work. Yarn has been pur-
chased from the fund to be
made into a knitted afghan. Mary
Rolen has gathered the ideas fox
the class and will have those who
do not knit, make tally cards.
The eighth grade scored a vic-
tory over the seventh .grade in a
baseball game played last Thurs-
day afternoon. The art class is
working on some landscapes, us-
ing three curved lines crossed
by two vertical lines. The class
went on a hike during science
class last week 'and gathered wild
flower plants and moss to set up
a terranium. The bulletin board
has been covered with pictures
of animals for `Be Kind to Ani-
mal week."
The seventh grade is glad to
welcome Nancy Fischer back to
school :after a very long ill -nes.
Dick Wylie is now abent with

tiently waiting at home to take

Mother's day cards are in the
making for the service men to
send their mothers. Bruce Mac-
Gregor brought in a breath of
spring in the form of some spring
flowers, the hepatica.
The sixth grade has issued its
copy of its room paper.
The fourth and fifth grade room
wishes to state that the fifth grade
is studying the island posses -
sessions of the United States.
They are also sorry that Judy
Maskell is leaving Rosedale to at-
tend school in Detroit. The fifth
grade also finished its history
books this week. Patsy Hanson
has been absent from school a
week due to illness.
The third grade is making a
study of its own state. Locating
Familiar places on the map proves
to be quite fascinating. Some have
drought Michigan souvenirs. The
pupils have made Mother's day
-.ards for the Red Cross, and also

Death Claims
Former Pastor
Pastor O. J. Peters, well known
as former pastor of .St. Paul's
Evangelical Lutheran church, at
Farmington and Five Mile roads,
died on Friday, April 21.
Pastor Peters first served the
congregation between the years
1909 and 1912 while living in
Plymouth and serving as resident
pastor of St. Peter's Evangelical
Lutheran church.
In 1912 he received a call to
St. John's congregation in Wayne.
In order to be able to devote his
full time and energy to the work
there, he requested to be relieved
of his work in the Livonia con-
gregati•on.
Eight years later Pastor Peters
was once more requested to serve
St. Paul's •congregation. He ac-
cepted this call and acted :as pas-
tor of this congregation together
with the congregation in Wayne
until illness made it necessary
for him to resign late in' 1940.
After his resignation, the con-
gregation decided to become an
independent parish and called a
pastor of its •own.
During his pastorate the con-
gregation not only grew in num-
bers, but many improvements
were made on the church and
property. He was well liked and
will long be remembered by the
members -of ,the congregation and
inhabitants of the community as
well.
