All were pro- fuse in their praise for the ef- forts of the program participants of which there were more than 75. The assembly heard all types of Yuletide melodies played and sung by groups and individuals. Both instrumental and vocal num- bers were well received, encores were'the rule rather than the ex- ception.

Groups that participated were the Junior High School Band, Livonia Eighth Grade, Girls' Glee club, Newburg Boys' Glee club, Livonia Accordion band, New- burg Girls' chorus, Livonia Sev- enth grade chorus and the New- burg Girls' Christmas choir. Directing the concert were Reg- inald Moore, Hazel Helgemo; Hen- ry Herrmann, Ruth Alleshouse and Grace Breningstall.

What wasn't destroyed by fire is being razed to make way for a more modern building, according to Mrs. Charles Greenlaw. The'I huge structure, located at 232 South Main street, was in the ear- ly days of Plymouth, considered one of the best built frame houses in the city. It was the old Ben- nett homestead. Most of its frame work, accord - Ing to the workmen now tearing it down, is of 2x10 walnut. The beautiful circular staircase also was of walnut construction. When the site is entirely clear of all structure, Mrs. Greenlaw will make plans for the future.'' She is currently considering the idea of erecting a modern business''. block with apartments above. However, her plans might be changed before spring. She defi- nitely does not anticipate doing any building before next summer. The site, with its 100, feet of frontage on Main street, would be ideal for any kind of business Mock. A sizeable building could be erected there as the lot is more than 200 feet in depth.

It was their second run there this month. The first alarm was on Sunday, Dec. 2. At that time fire destroyed a por- tion of goods that were ready for shipment. Tuesday's blaze was a minor one, firemen said, and did an es- timated $50 worth of damage to raw and finished material. Its origin was undetermined. The plant's sprinkler system was set off but little damage from water resulted, according to firemen. A report of game and fur -bear- ers taken under license must be mailed to the coservation depart- ment, Lansing, on or before the 15th of February of each year.
