Discuss Lighting
A mass meeting to discuss the
proposed new street lighting plan
for Rosedale Gardens was held
last 'Friday night at the Rosedale
Community House. Sponsor of the
meeting was the Rosedale Gar-
dens Civic Association.
Several residents are in agree-
ment that improved street illu-
mination is necessary. The asso-
ciation has been reticent to ap
prove the Detroit Edison plan
because they claim the improve-
ment will raise -taxes.
The association has contended

Prize winner
"Honey," the eight -months -old
smooth Fox Terrier puppy belong-
ing to "Bud" Schaffer, of 11700
Merriman road, is in Akron,
Ohio, this week participating in
two different national dog shows.
The puppy already has estab-
lished himself as a blue ribbon
winner in two previous shows. Mr.
Schaffer, who left 'Monday, to-
day. for a trek to the north woods
in search of antlered prey, expects
his entry will win prizes in the
Ohio shows too.
Last summer when "Honey"
was three months old he was
judged best in a puppy match at
the Charles Button kennels at
Roseville. On Sunday, Nov. 4, at
Lansing, he won the title of best
smooth Fox Terrier in the Ing-
ham County Kennel Club show.
Thieves Steal
Hardware Guns
Jahn's Hardware and Grocery
store on the corner of Farming-
ton and 5 Mile roads, was broken
into last Saturday night. Thieves
entered the building through a
back window and leisurely ran-
sacked both stores.
All of the guns and ammunition
in the hardware were taken and
all of the cigarettes and wine in
the grocery store was missing
when the theft was discovered
Sunday morning.
Several hundred dollars worth
of cash was missing along with
many other miscellaneous items.
From the appearance of the job
police are inclined to believe the
thieves were familiar with the in-
terior of the -building. No clues
were left and police have little
to go on except :the possibility of
tracing some of the guns by their
serial numbers when they are dis-
posed of.
G.E. Products
According to an announcement
of General Electric Company J.
L. Rabiola of the Rabiola Gulf
Service has been appointed dis-
tributor "for their products in this
area.
Mr. Rabiola operates a gasoline
station on the corner of Merriman
and Plymouth roads and is well
known in this vicinity. Plans are
under way for the enlargement
of his establishment and he hopes
to have a salesroom completed by
the first of the year.
He now has on display a new
G.E. electric refrigerator, stove
and washing machine and before
the year is over he expects to
have a complete line of G.E.
products to offer to the people of
Livonia.

Ferry Service
for U. P. Hunters
The many Plymouth deer hunt-
ers who go to the Upper Peninsula
to do their hunting, will be in-
terested to know that the state
highway department will be
ready to provide special ferry ser-
vice for deer hunters across the
Straits of Mackinac again this
year and has arranged for res-
taurants at Mackinaw City to
serve lunches to hunters in their
cars when they are required to
wait for passage across the Straits,
Highway Commissioner Charles
M. Ziegler announces.
Last year the Highway Depart-
ment estimates about 14,500 hunt-
ers crossed the Straits, only a
slight decrease from 1941, last pre-
war year, when an estimated 15,-
000 crossed. It is expected this
year will bring the hunter traffic
back to the pre-war figure.
Four highway department ferry
boats will be available for service
when the rush of hunters hits the
Straits area and will operate 24
hours a day as often as needed.
The four ships will be able to pro-
vide departures approximately',
every 35 minutes. A fifth vessel,',
the car ferry Chief Wawatam,
will be called into service during

the daytime if conditions war-
rant, the Commissioner said.
Last year, the longest wait dur-
ing the peak of the hunter's rush
was 31/2 hours which is the best
record the highway Department
ferries have made during hunting
seasons in the past. The depart-
ment hopes this year to do as well
or better.
If the hunters will leave a little
early this year and get across the
Straits well in advance of the
opening of the deer season, we
may avoid the usual peak rush
and spread out the hunter traffic
so that waits at the Mackinaw
City dock ---ay be reduced even
below last year, the Commis-
sioner added.

Jap prison is expected home in
Plymouth within the next few
da -s. He has been sent b
y the
army from a Seattle hospital to
the Fletcher General hospital in
Cambridge, Ohio for some special
dental work .
In a telephone message to his
parents, he stated that his weight
had increased from 123 pounds
when liberated to 175 pounds at
present.
"I'm feeling fine and am
mighty anxious to get home as
quickly as possible" he told his
parents over the phone.
Dr G. H. Gordon in a letter
to The Mail states that his son,
Jack Gordon, who was also a
prisoner of the Japs, has been
transferred from a Los Angeles

hospital at Hines, Illinois, and
that he, too, expects to be back
in Plymouth in a few days.

Howard Williams
Home on Leave
Howard B. Williams, son of Mrs.
Ada Williams of 511 Holbrook, a
member of the crew of the fam-
ous U. S. carrier Essex which took
an active part in driving the Jap
navy from the Pacific, arrived
home a few days ago for a 3'0 -day
visit with his relatives and
friends. He has been in the Paci-
fic for over 33 months and he is
now wearing 14 combat stars.
The Essex was one of the pow-
erful American ships that was un-
der almost constant attack from
the Japs. Time and again it was
reported sunk by the Japs, but
every time it emerged to keep
sending more Jap ships to the bot-
tom.
During all of these engage-
ments, young Williams was a
member of the Essex crew. Al-
though the, ship was under almost
constant assault, he escaped in-
jury.
Certain occasions, considered
either collectively or individually
and observed properly, tend to
give the activity of man infinite
scope; but mere merry -making or
needless gift -giving is not that in
which human capacities find the

cise.—Mary Baker Eddy.

Free Aid For You
The Office of Veterans' Affairs
in conjunction with the Michigan
Department of Health, has made
available a supply of atabrine tab-
lets. for free distribution to Michi-
gan veterans suffering from mala-
ria.
The supply of atabrine has been
turned over to the Department of
Health and in turn, a direct dis-
tribution has been made to local
health officers, who have been ad-
vised as to the proper dosage to
be administered to the veteran.
Any veteran needing atabrine
therapy, is urged to contact the lo-
cal counselor of Veterans' Affairs.
The counselor will then give the
needed authority to make the ata -
brine available to the veteran.
Veterans living in Wayne Coun-
�y can obtain atabrine at the Vet-
erans' Administration in Dear-
born.
Ninety distributing stations
have been set up throughout the
state by the Health Department to
make this supply available on a
statewide program.
Counselors have been requested

rothers Meet
Out in Pacific
In a letter received by Mr. and
Mrs. R. D. Labbe of Rosedale
Gardens they learned of the re-
-en', meeting of their Navy sons,
Robert and John, both of Plym-
outh High School, on ah island
far out in the Pacific.
Jack says—"When we were put
ashore at Luzon I knew Bob's
ship was in Suhic Bay, so wired
him," Bob continues—"I receiv-
ed a wire saying Jack was at Sub-
�ase 3002 and after obtaining a
few hours went ashore. I started
down the road and ran right into
Jack."
Christianity is not a theory or
speculation, but a life; not a philo-
sophy of life, but a life and a
living process.—Coleridge.
