Pape Two T= Lire Wednesday, April 4, 1945 Use Early Hours for Mailing Is Postmaster's Plea Postmaster Harry Irwin has is- sued an appeal to Plymouth resi- dents and business concerns to try and do their mailing earlier and help relieve late afternoon and evening congestion. He had a special word for those with large amounts of mail. If they can get part of it in to the postoffice in the morning it will help greatly and also will improve delivery service since it will make earlier trains. The same plea was aimed at users of the postal money or- der and savings services. Those who can are urged to get in early. There are many who, because of working hours, etc., are unable to get in before the evening hours. However, those who can do so', will make it much easier on them- selves, the postoffice employees and the people who can't mail early. Don't let the mail accumulate until evening. Get it in in the', mroning or early afternoon. Out- going mail leaves for Detroit at 10' a.m. and 3 p.m. The postoffice opens at 8 a.m. and c46ses at 6 p.m. The money Camilot BEAUTY CLINIC Phoaas Livonia 8434 MARY CAMI M ANN STEPHAN Rork 71%a+Ys DitlwwM and Dlsliemllti . . . 9086 Middlebelt betwoon micago is Jay Storm Windows mid Insulation Will Cut Your Heating Costs to a Minimum We will gladly give you as estimate on the costs of in- sulating or on the costs of installing storm sash.

The group, which numbers ibout 72 active members, has re- eived nationwide recognition in .'he Navy Family Magazine, Of- icial publication of the Navy Bothers' Clubs of America and he Navy Wives' Clubs of Amer - 2a. The mention came in a letter ublished in the magazine ex- ressing the thanks of the men in west coast hospital for gifts re- eived through the Mothers' clubs, :specially mentioned were cigar- ts. ,,We owe this bit of good will to the Mothers' club of Plymouth, Mich., and Mrs. Mae West, its welfare chair- man, who sent us five car- tons of Camels and Luckiest" said the leter in part. Another letter published in the iagazine, from a patient in the aval Hospital in Portsmouth, 'a., gives a vivid expression of ie apperciation of these men for ie work of the Moms' clubs, such the one in Plymouth. It says, in part: Today I received a most wel- )me and much looked forward to isit from the Navy Mothers of ortsmouth . . . "As I lie here I, often wonder you mothers really know how such happiness and good you ace ging for us. Sure, we have the nest doctors and nurses here but me hangs heavy, especially _ T8i LIVOK 1111 Page Tbxee Iwheii one is in pain and so far ISM. from home When the Navy Mothers walk in the fellows' faces light up and all pain and trou- ble is forgotten. They are al- ways so pleasant and cheer- ful it is like a tonic to us. "Believe me when I say that outside of a letter from home nothing is looked forward to with as much pleasure as these visits. "We have a radio in each ward, donated and maintained by the Navy mothers . They give us reading material, cigarets, writing material, toilet articles, etc. "They always ask if there is something we do need `shat they normally don't have If so, we can be sure that we will get it on their next visit . . . "Of course it is impossible for the Navy Mothers of Portsmouth No 555 to do this without some assistance from the inland clubs. "Thanks to , . . yoa�r club this help has been coming in good. l "I'm sure that I speak for the j rest of the boys as well as myself when I say we all thank you from the bottom of our hearts." Also cited were instances where the Navy Mothers had come to the rescue of families of Navy men living near the hospital. In one case they provided a complete layette for a young Navy mother l who was unable financially to Purchase the necessary equip- ment. Another letter quotes the fol- lowing exchange of conversation between a Navy Mother and a hospital pateitnt after he had been given a package of gum: "But I am a soldier," he said. "Bless you, boy, what dif- ference does that make?" ask- ed the Mother. "This is a gift from the Navy Mothers all over the United States, who are thinking of you." "Soldiers, Seabees, Marines, of- ficers and gobs, they are all the This little Dutch boy and his sister seem happy enough, but there still are many cold days and nights for them to live through 'this spring. They will be adequately clothed if you contribute good used clothing to the United National Clothing Collection, April 1 to 30. There is a drop in bog or collection station in your neighborhood same to me" said the Mother af- terv,7ards. "A fine bunch of boys who have done their jobs the best way they knew how and now they are in our hospital . It is up I us to givet hem the cheer." Mrs. Eriand Bridge is the presi- dent of the local Moms' club, which has been very active in furnishing gift boxes for the boys in the hospitals. They've made quilts, done knitting and sent some cash gifts. The nation's productive capac- ity was reduced in 1944 by the loss of 41,500 workers.

Two new officers were elected;, Mrs. Fred Byrd, vice president; and Mrs. Wm, Irwin, secretary. The president, Mrs. H. Case, and the treasurer Mrs. Thatcher re- tained their offices as they were elected for two years. A request was made by Mrs. Minehart for balls and bats for Stark school.

Good Sewing Success in home dressmaking or in altering ready-to-wear depends in part on the care with which you mark your fabric pieces. As speed indicators in airplane register accurately only at sea level, pilots have to estimate speeds by adding two per cert to their readings for each 1;000 feet in altitude. For example, when the indicator registers a speed of 225 miles an hour at 5,000 feet, a pilot knows that he is actually traveling almost 248 miles an :i our.

Have a Farm He'll Be Proud of Of THAT SON OF YOURS in service is probably doing some heavy thinking when he gets a chance — thinking about what he's going to do when the war is over. You can help him make a wise decision by planning an electrification program for your farm, ' and telling him about it. He knows there is security on the land; he knows that there can be pleasure and profit, too. But he won't be content to do things the old way with its back -breaking toil and precious few hours for rest and relaxation. There are many ways electricity can help shorten work days and reduce the amount of human energy expended on many farm jobs. Electricity can pump your water. It can milk your cows; run feed grinders, hay hoists, hay driers, barn gutter cleaners, silo fillers—all at a coat so low you can't afford to do without it. And when production of farm equipment is back to normal, there will be many new electrical devices to make farm work easier.

THE DETROIT EDISON COe Serving more than half the people of Michigan Page Eight THE LIVONIAN Wednesday, April 4, 1945 Good Advise k"or Gardeners (By E. I. Besemer) A survey made March 13-15 on 14 orchards in the southeastern fruit area shows that there are aphis eggs, red mite eggs and scale enough to justify a dormant spray. The dormant spray must be put on when the buds are strictly dor- mant so as to prevent injury. This new garden calendar is a special service designed by your Victory Garden committee to re- mind you of the things to be done in your Victory Garden this week. With Spring here there are many small jobs that can be done early to insure abetter garden. Start your hotbed now. It can be heated with fresh manure or if built adjacent to a basement win- dow, the heat from the open win- dow will keep the temperature M the frame high enough for ger- mination of the seeds and sub- sequent --lant growth. On the coldest nights, it may be advisable to cover the glass with a :oat, straw or a blanket. If you haven't already sown seeds of onions, head lettuce, ear- ly cabbage and broccoli indoors, better get them started so they'll make good stalky plants to set out next month. Tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and cauliflower seeds can now be sown indoors. To destroy damping off or seed- ling rot, heat the seed soil to 180 degrees in an over and pour suffi- cient boiling water on to it to bring it to the same temperature. This treatment will also kill many weed seeds. Chemicals such as formalda- j hyde can also be used. Use one ounce of formaldahyde to two ounces of water mixed in one bushel .of soil. Semesan, potassi- um, permantsnate, acetic acid or even tear gas can be used. They will kill the damping off fungi, but will not destroy the weed seeds. For further protection treat the seeds before sowing with Semesan, Aresan or Spergon. Last call to complete that gar- den plan—Draw it on paper to insure the greatest return for the time and effort expended. Indi- cate on your plan the late crops that are to be planned to follow early crops after they have been harvested. Extension bulletin No. 4 available from Michigan State college or your Victory Garden chairman will guide you. Test any seeds left over from last year before buying new ones. Cut a piece of cotton flannel cloth 18x18 inches in size. Fold the cloth from each side to the middle and crease. Scatter 10 large seeds and 20 small ones in rows across the inner strip. Bring in the two sides and roll up the strip. Tie and wet in warm water then stand in a glass jar containing an inch of water. Most seeds will germinate in 10 days. Some like carrots and parsnips will take two or three weeks. If 60 percent or more ger- minate—save and sow. Don't delay ordering or buying your seed. The best varieties are always sold out first and further delay may make it necessary to accept substitutes. Ask your seed dealer to show you the seed chart furnished him by ,your local Victory Garden chairman. It lists recommended varieties for Michigan gardens as well as the quantity of seed nec- essary to plant your garden. Make a second small sowing o head lettuce indoors to plant out next month. The variety Great Lakes is recommended for Michi- gan. To Victory Gardeners equipped to grow plants indoors for setting into the garden, County Agricul- tural Agent E. I. Besemer -)ffers these suggestions. Treat all vetgetable seeds with one of the seed -treating materials, following the directions of the manufacturer. Germinate the seed in a warm soil, temperature 70 to 80 degrees F. Start the plants in time to per- mit a growing period of 6 to 8 weeks previous to the time for garden setting. Celery and onions require to 10 weeks, while mel- ons, cucumbers and summer squash reouire only 3 to 4 weeks. Place soil that is loose and eas- ily crumbled in the cold frame nr hot bed, Pure sand with a nutri- ent solution applied as the plants emerge gives good results. Keep the proper temperatures, if possible, for the plants being grown. Tomato and pepper plants need 70 to 80 degrees F; lead let- :,uce, celery, cabbage, onion, broc- coli, cauliflower and brussc,.s sprouts require 55 to 70 F; wnite melons, cucumbers and squash need from 70 to 89 F. For most vegetables the temperature during the night should be 5 to 10 de- grees cooler than during the day. Thoroughly soak the soil when watering the plants. FrequencT, of watering depends upon the rata of growth, temperature and hu- midity. Soil for flats, pots, and 'wands should be moderately fertile, so that excessive applications of fer- tilizers are not necessary. Too much fertilizer produces a soil con:'ition that results in slow growth.

Famous, I st 1t.70rc's; "Well. if he won't dim his, I won't dim mine!" THE OLD JUDGE SAYS... No Tire Relief Likely very Soon Any increase in tire production due to the development of syn- thetics will go to the armed forc- es and not to civilians, Mel T. Santmyer, district tire officer, told In view of the continued short- age and probable further restric- tion in civilian tires, Bob Buck- nell, of Board 40, the industrial board, stressed the importance ,of careful tire inspections. He urged the vulcanizing of breaks in the sidewall and re- iterated the necessity of re- capping before the fabric is damaged. He also demonstrat- ed how easy it is to damage the thin sidewalls of fires by bumping curbs, etc. Santmyer, in impressing the fact there is no hope for the im- mediate future, pointed to the fact that the Plymouth board, which serves approximately 55,- 000 people, was allotted only 223 t-ics for March. The 25 inspectors, about two- thirds of those in the area, also saw movies of the punishment tir- es take in actual battle. Battle :c ;nes from all over the world were included. BUY WAR BONDS "That's news to me, Judge. From the way some people talk you would think it was at least 50%." "No, Clem, there's the statement right here in the paper... from authorities who have made an exhaustive study of the sub- ject. Only about 5% of the people who drink occasionally abuse the privilege ... 95% drink sensibly." "No wonder you say it wouldn't be- fair .o take the privilege away from the other 95%, Judge. I agree with you." "I can't see it any other way, Clem. No .tore than I could see taking automobiles away from everybody because a few drive recklessly and have accidents. Or preventing the making or sale of cake or doughnuts because some folks eat too much and get indigestion." " In the case of spirit beverages, the answer is one of education and better control."
