Nights, Sundays and Holidays, Call Livonia 2073 HENRY.-" I've heard that same thing several times lately ... that alcoholics are really sick people. It was news to me. Do you agree with that statement, Judge?" OLD JUDGE: "Yes, it's true, Henry. It's no notion of mine ... it's a statement made by scientists who have studied the subject." HENRY. "What did they find out, Judge?" OLD JUDGE: "Well, as a result of their medical research, they found out that ap- 3ximately 95% of the people who drink, drink sensibly. 5% do so unwisely, at times. Included in that 50/0 is the small percentage known as alcoholics." HENRY: "But why are they called sick people? " OLD JUDGE: "Because it has been dis- covered that, in many cases, excessive drink- ing is a symptom of some physical or emo- tional maladjustment ... not the cause of it." HENRY: "Now I understand it, Judge. I am glad to hear of the modern approach to this problem and that so much. is really beim done to help these folks."

The success of the Army world tivide, recruiting program is; "Vi- tal to our tremendous task of in- suring the peace," President Tru- man declared in a statement made public today. The President stressed the fact that the Army faces an essential two-way manpower problem -- to rapidly replace demobilized men; and to build an Army to meet immediate requirements at home and abroad. — until long- range peace terms and military policy are worked out. Enthusiastic public support is imperative to insure the success of the recruiting campaign; the President asserted. "It is of the utmost importance that the American people understand the status and significance of the Regular Army"; the President said in his statement. "It will be the duty of the vol- unteer Army to help protect the fredom and maintain the peace we have won at so great a cost. "Atomic power has increased rather than decreased the neces- sity for our preparation; both in manpower and material. In the coming Atomic age; the United :States must maintain its military strength—to insure our 'national security and to promote world order." The President further states; "Such grave responsibilities ob- thing less than the highest tali- viously cannot be met by any- ber of men. For this reason; I asked Congress for legislation to increase the opportunities of the soldier in the Regular Army.

The Consumers Power company will spend more than 517,000•,000 in 1946 on construction projects designed to meet anticipated growth in the use of electricity and gas, according to an an- nouncement by Dan E. Karn, vice president and general man- ager. The company's service territory embraces most of the Lower Pen- insula aside from the Detroit and Thumb areas. Preliminary work is already under way, Mr. Karn said, on a large new steam -electric gen- erating plant to be erected on Muskegon Lake at Muskegon. Test borings are being made to determine the type of foundation neaded, and when these are com- pleted and analyzed, the drafting of engineering and architectural plans will begin immediately. Most of the actual construction work is scheduled for 1947 a -,id 1948. With an initial capacity of 120,- 000 kilowatts, the new plant will be one of the largest in outstate _Michigan. Like the six other large steam -electric plants and the 43 hydro -electric plants of the Consumers system, it will pour its energy into a statewide network of transmission lines uniting all communities served by the Com- pany. The new plant has been named the B. C. Cobb Plant honoring Bernard C. Cobb, former presi- dent and chairman of the board of directors of Consumers and of the Commonwealth and Southern Corporation. Mr. Cobb retired in 1934 and now makes his home in New York. SAMA-TEX means finer spring cleaning! Look your best this Spring in a smart. 3 Sr 1 looking SANI-TEX cleaned wardrobe.

Work oh this project will begin this year and. reach completion in 1947. Also on the Consumers pro- gram for this year are many new power lines and substations and numerous additions to and improvements of the company's gas distribution and :storage fa- cilities. Gas main capacities will be increased in anticipation of a sharp rise in number of custo- mers who heat their homes with gas. Consumers now has 519,000 electric customers. It expects to add 19,000, about half of them farm customers, in 1946.

(Signed) Carl Wa.geoschutz Township Treasurer Wednesday, February 27, 1946 L I V O N I A N Page Nine Fire Department Gives Pointers On Handling of Oil The increasing use of portable oil stoves has resulted in a de- mand for storage on the premises. In the absence of suitable regu- lations in many localities, as for instance our own township, nu- merous makeshift arrangements have been resorted to and fre- quently the nature of these is such as to cause a severe fire hazard. The principle danger of storing and 'candling a flammable liquid of any kind is its exposure fo air. In communities where there is an established system of oil deliv- ery, the need for keping on hand more than 55 gallons is not ap- parent. The safest place to have the L`quid stored is outside the building. Frequently range ,burners and heate_s are supplied thru a con- stant level device by glass or sheet metal vacuub and gravity tanks of from 3 to 6 gallon capac- ity. In most cases these tanks are removable—they may be taken to the basement or cellar. The filling container should be an oil can provided with a cap that can be securely placed over the discharge opening when not in use. Oil burning space heaters of size rr-quiring flue connections in- troduce a special problem.

For these raesons filling operations are car- ried n inside at the heater. Flling should be from an oil can of the type previously mentioned. Portable beaters employing a wick probably create the great- est hazard because of the num- ber in service, the faults of con- struction and the portability of the burner. Filling operations should be outside the building and by ' means of an oil can of the type previously described and NEVER WHILE THE WICK IS BURNING. It should be borne in mind that flimsy make -shift storage ar- rangements such as glass bottles, pails and improper drums sooner or later invite damage and re- sultant exposure of the oil through breakage, leakage or overflow. It is well to remember that the handling and storage of oil will envolve no danger if exposure of the lio_uid is prevented; exposure permits the oil to change to va- por and the latter when mixed with air in proper proportion is flammable and explosive. Just bear in mind that the ignition temperature of kersoene vapor is only 460 degs. F.; that of gasoline 536 degs. F. and mix- tures of Butane and Propane around 800 degs. F. and if the proper mixture of air and vapor is present it is not necessary to actually produce a spark or flame to cause ignition, but can be brought about by simply heating the material.

This year New Orleans aga_n will celebrate the MardiGras shelved through the war years, shelved as it has been each time war swept the United States — in the "Sixties" -of the Civil War, 1898 for the` Spanish-American War and in 1917-1918 for World War I. This year Mardi Gras falls on March 5, Shrove Tuesday, when a full week of masking, merry making and hilarity will end with the midnight chimes from ancient St. Louis Cathedral.

Under .its flagged floor sleeps the men of the cloth who planted Cross of Church along with flag' of King -in the early days when Louisiana was the gathering place for the ad- venturers of the world. In the rear of the old cathedral is Pere Antoine's Garden, a "must" in its own right. 1 11 Mardi Gras, of course, is one of New Orleans' highlights, but New Orleans is a city of all high- lights, from the narrow streets of the Vieuxcarre to the famous old restaurants, from the Dueling Oaks in City Park to -beautiful Audubon Park, where John James Audubon first studied birds and where the first sugar was granulated, and from the riv- er front, with its ships from the Seven Seas to the 50 million dol- lar lake front beautification on Lake Pontchartrain. New Orleans is a city of color and romance and legend. Some of that color has been captured in prose and poetry, but one has to wander beneath the jalousied balconies of Rue Royale and St. Peter street to sense the rich background of the old town. One has to dine in the old restaur- ants—Arnauds, for exaMple=to realize that in NeiO Orleans cook- ery has been elevated to an art. No more colorful character in all America than County Arnaud Cazenave, who.has been host to, kings and princes and presidents and captains of finance. The Count's guest register reads -like an international Who's Who. And New Orleans is .surround- ed by unforgettables. There are the Plains of Chalmette, where the Battle of New Orleans was fought, and. the little fishing vil- lage of LaFitte, from which Jean LaFitte marched 800 swashbuc- kling Barbatarians to fight with Andrew Jackson. There are the famous old plantation homes along Bayou St. John and along the winding ruches of the Mis- sissippi River, and, of course, there is Baton Rouge, where Huey P. Long sleeps his eternal sleep in the shadow of the 35 - story state capitol which he built as a monument to,his regime. New Orleans' wintey climate is superb. Great trees bear masses of white and pink and red camel- lias, and already the azalea is breaking forth in its pastel glory to continue blooming until late in May. Towering palms and spreading live oaks, draped in great Spanish moss, give New Orleans scenic appeal found no where else. In common with other towns in the South and Southwest, New Orleans is having -a heavy tour- ist year, so it would be well to be certain of hotel reservations be- fore getting there for any leng- thy stay, but if you can set into a hotel or tourist court, you may take my word that you will have a visit to be remembered through all the years.

FROM EGG TO TABLE IN TWO MONTHS (Continued from Page One) which not only protect the birds from disease, but also keep them awake and eating most of the 24 hours a day. By pushing them along in this manner, the chick- ens are -ready for market much sooner than they would be un- der ordinary circumstances. These Germicidal Lamps are now being put in some of the modern industrial plants through- out the country, but it is neces- sary to wear dark glasses in the coops while working under the lamps or turn them off. In order to protect the young chickens, these lamps are located six feet off the floor and are turned away from the roosts. Even though the winter months are not conducive to poultry raising these General Electric Lamps have kept the mortality rate down to ten percent. E. Loewenthal and M. Ber- `upholstering "Bring it to me for satisfaction" GUMBEAULT �or. Westbrook & Fenkell Phone Redford 3100 shad, both of Detroit, the owners of this enterprise have patterned it after some of the poultry frains in Delaware which had so muc__ written about them in the Sat- urday Evening Post several months ago. At the present time they are working on an automa- tic watering system which will keep water in front of the fowl at all times as well as an automa- tic feeder by which they hope to eliminate feeding the birds more than once a week. Through information giver_ them by Michigan State College, these men are raising a new broiler hybrid which is a cross between a New Hampshire and Barred Rock. This particular hy- brid grows faster and contains more actual meat than the ordi- nary strain of poultry. Chiefly concerned with whole- saling, an electric picker and dressing room are contained on the ten acre layout. In order to cater to restaurants that specil- ize in chicken barbecues, all the merchandising at the present time is done with fresh dressed poultry, but in the near future a deep freeze unit is to be ir_= stalled by which they hope to build up surpluses to tide them over the peak demand periods such as the holiday seasons. Li the spring, "sunporches" will be built with wire floors which will kep the fowl or, the ground, ye, get them out in the sun. The future does not hold much in store for 1,000 chickens eac:a week a sfar as a long life is concerned, but they are in Utopia with all the food they can pos- sibly eat, lots of fresh clean wa- ter, germicidal lamps, daylight 24 hours a day and the thought that they are responsible for 4aaking those famous words, "a thicker in every pot" come true.
