E. Eads Burned
In Home Fire
Fire, which was thought to
have started from a defective oil
stove; seriously burned Mr. E.
Eads of 12331 Camden Ave., July
2nd.
The stove caught fire and ignit-
ed articles that were hanging on
_ a .cord run that ran over the stove.
The fire could have been very
serious had it gotten out of con-
trol as further clothes and papers
were found in a box UNDER -
HEATH the stove.
Chief Roberts warns residents
not to hang clothes near a stove
or .have any inflamable objects
in the vicinity of any open fire.,:-
such ans in this case.
The damage was in the neigh-
borhood of $1550.00 and it is
believed that the loss was cover-
ed by insurance.
Mutual's "Twenty Question"
experts, the latest addition to
radio fame, are the Fred Van
Deventer family: Mr. and Mrs.,
Nancy who is sixteen and Bobby
who is 14. The Van Deventers
are former residents of Rosedale
Gardens.
All four play quizzes at their
Princeton, New Jersey home, on
trips when the time is dragging
and even when eating out at a
restaurents. It all started around
the dinner table and the entire
family has been asking one an-
othen, questions for the past ten
years, only they call it Vegitable
or some such other name.
One Sunday night a radio prod-
ucer friend of Mr. Van Deventer
came over to Princeton to have
a chicken dinner with the family
and. in the course of the table
telk the conversation drifted
around to the subject of how the
various radio shows got started.
Several of the producers stories
were about the, birth of the pop-
ular quiz programs. The con-
sensus of opinion was that if it
was as simple as that possibly
their game of "Questions" might
make the grade.
The idea did click, but not as a
family venture at first. The idea

To Swimmers
Boys and girls of Livonia (and
their parents) are warned about
swimming in' the Rouge River
which crosses Stark Road and
Wayne Rd.
Two local children have recent-
ly been Beverly cut by broken
glass in the stream, and it is
also reported that the water is
sewer water, and therefore un-
safe for swimming. Parents are
urged to see that their children
go elsewhere to swim to avoid
accidents and possible illness.

was to market the idea and only
Mr. Van Deventer was taking part
in the program. A big placard
was placed in front of the audi-
ence to let them know what the
experts were trying to guess. The
experts did not do too good a job
and wasted many of the ques-
tions. Finally one night Mrs. Van
Deventer filled in on a try out
show when on of the . guests fail-
ed to put in an appearance and
Mrs. V. did a bang up job.
Then Bobby tried for a place in
the show and he too clicked.
Nancy attends the Hewlett School
for girls and was unable to join
the family, but during the sum-

held nature study, trail- making
and finding, and learned the fun-
damentals of tennis, badminton
and other sports. The noon hour
was spent in singing and dancing
in a group, and the afternoon was
taken up with such crafts as the
making of waste paper baskets,

There were foot races, bean gues-

pitchers were Clarence and Har-

Appetite Appeal
By Mrs. William Compton
A special effort should be Tilade
to have meals that are pleasing
to look at as well as to taste.
Food is more easily degested if
it is enjoyed. Dress up your meals
especially when it is necessary
to serve foods that are not too
well liked bv_ all members of the
family. Now adays it isn't neces-
sary to dress up a steak, that is
very pleasant to look at. But stew-

Michigan Bell
Plans Auto
Phone Service
"It will not be very long before
your telephone bell will be
jingling right in your automobile
and you will be able to talk to
your home or your office or any
one who .calls you" Neil Youngs
of the .Michigan Bell Telephone
company told members of the
Rotary club last Friday noon.
If your wife forgets to tell you
when you leave home in the
morning that she wants you to
bring home a loaf of bread (if
you can get it) she can call you
by phone while you are speeding
down town in your automobile
and tell you just what she wants
you to do.,
The Michigan Bell made its
first demonstration to the public
in Plymouth last Friday of its
new Mobile Radiotelephone ser-
vice.
A Ford car, fully equipped with
this amazing new development
stood in front of the hotel and
when Rotarians left the meeting
they saw just how the whole thing
works. Te phone is attached to
the dashboard and0it is as easily
operated as is the phone in your
'home. Ray Crockford of the phone
company also aided in the dem-
onstration.
Mr. Youngs told the Rotarians
that it wiuld probably be fall
before the system will be devel-
oped to such an extent that it
can be offered to the public.
Mobile service will operate as
separate radiotelehpone systems
for each metropolitan area serv-
ed. A metropolitan system will
be arranged to serve not only
cars, trucks, buses, railway trains
and habor and river craft, but
also other moblle units operating
within the area.
Preliminary surveys in a large
number of cities indicate that
mobile service will be particu-
larly useful to business concerns
or individuals operating vehicles
or other mobile units within
metropolitan areas where it is
important that headquarters keep
in touch with their various
drivers or vice versa.
Such concerns, through mobile
radiotelephone service, can render
faster and more complete service
to their customers. Back -hauls
and dead mileage can be reduced
to a minimum with consequent
increased operating efficiency at
lowered costs,
The operator of a mobile unit
can originate calls merely by
picking up his telephone and
pushing the "talk" button. This
signals the vehicular operator
and she "comes in on the line."
He gives her the telephone num-
ber he wants and the call goes
through.
In large metropolitan centers
a number of receiving stations
will be employed, l o c a t e d
throughout the area so that the
relatively low -powered mibile
radio sets will be within range
at all times. The receiver nearest
to the mobile unit will pick up
the voice signalsand send them
on their way by telephone wire.
It is planned also to have sufficient
transmitters to give full cover-
age.
For years the Bell companies
have furnished two-way radio-
telephone service for coastal and
harbor boats, as well as for ship
ping on the Great Lakes and
inland waterways and on the high
seas. A two-way vehicular service
has for some time been provided
in New York and Boston for
emerbency use by certain public
utility companies.
The interesting program was
arranged by Manager John
Palmer of the Plymouth office of
phone company.
The shrinkage of savings and
purchasing power due to enforced
idleness will retard retail sales
for several months, declared Ger-
ald Hulett, vice-president of
Electromaster, Inc., Detroit, after
a ten-day trip through the Mid-
west. Retail sales continue high,
but greater availibility of mer-
chandise accounts for a large part
of theincrease volume.
An appropriation of $253,727,-
000 for 100,000 additional tem-
porary housing units for veterans,
has been requested tram Congress
by President Truman. Funds have
tlready been provided for 100,000
such units.

Play Is Included In
Pre -School Child's
Early Education
The pre-school child's play is
a part of his education. According
to Miss Ruth Highberger, in-
strucator in child development
at Michigan State college, this
education_ is of great importance
because it is during this period
that the child forms many habits
and attitudes which he carries
throughout life.
Wile all mothers are interested
in having their children get along
with other children, such it not
learned in ten easy lessons, Miss
Highberger reminds the home-
maker. Mother probably realizes
this point from experience, but
does not know that keeping her
youngster from playing with
other children will not solve the
problem.
"The earlier your child can beg-
in practicing social skills in his
play with other children the so-
oner he will mastery this art,"
Miss Highberger explains. Even
though a two-year-old child
might not pay much attention to
others joining him in play, it is
no sign he is not learning to play
with others. The mere fact he is
able tc accept the other child
without being afraid of him is an
accomplishment. To be content to
play with the toys he has, rather

than to snatch those belonging
to the other child; is really an
achievement.
She reconimends that children
be allowed as much as possible
to work out their own disagree-
ments; but an adult must be
constantly aware of whether the
principles of fair play are being
enforced.
The first indication of domestic
happiness is the love of one's
home.--Montiosier

Poor Operation Of
Harvest Machines
Will Waste Crain
This year of want and starva
tion is one in which farmers
should be .particularly interested
in getting every pound of grain
available from the fields during
small grain harvest. E. C. Sauve,
depaftment of agricultural en-
gineering at Michigan State col-
lege, believes proper attention to
the combine before and during
harvest will save bushels from

every acre cut.
.Sauve recalls instances where
froth three to four bushels per
acre of grain was lost due to
faulty adjustment of the combine.
With - the . _ harvest season ap-
proaching, all combine owners
should tune-up their equipment
for uninterrupted and efficient
operation.
All wearing parts should be
checked, with special attention
to the bearings. Combines require
a good job of greasing to avoid
costly delays by breakdowns
when harvest is in full swing.
Grain losses usually occur at
the cutter bar, rack and shoe,
Sauve reveals. Losses can be
determined by counting the loose
grains -on the ground before the
combine passes a given area and
then recounting the grain and
heads after the machine has pas-
sed. Adjustments can be made
in lowering or raising of the cut-
ter bar, spacing cylinders to con -
eaves; amount and direction of
air blast, setting of shoe sieves,
the forward speed of the combine
and suitable cylinder and rack
speed for the particular grain
combined. Experimentation will
prove the best adjustments to be
made.
A recheck should be made two
or three times daily and each
time the machine is moved to a
different field or to harvest a
different grain. Much grain can
be saved by combining the back
swath or path of the combine
and tractor on the opening round
of the field.
The saving of three bushels to
the acre not only will result in
more wheat for the starving
world, but will mean six dollars
more per acre in revenue for the
farmer, Sauve pointed out.
The happiest, sweetest, tender-
est homes are not those where
there has been no sorrow, but
those which have been over-
shadowed with grief, and where
Christ's comfort was accepted.—

Like Quality Varieties
'The four outstanding repre-
sentatives of high quality apple
varieties available to consurpers
today are the four leading apple
varieties grown in Michigan. A i
recent survey made by the Amer-
ican Pomological society reveals
that Jonthan, McIntosh, Northern
Spy and Delicious are Michigan's
leading varieties. 'Cooperating
with the pomological society in
the survey were the American i
Nurserymen's association, Mich- i
igan fruit growers and the depart-
ment of horticulture at Michigan
State college.
Dr. H. Tukey, head of the i
department of horticulture at
MSC says "intentions to plant" of
growers showed these four varie-
ties leading. The varieties voted
growers, Dr. Tukey said, were
the lower quality varieties of
Ben Davis, Duchess and Wolf
River.
Michigan .growers, Dr.Tukey
revealed, are out to make 1946 a
gooA crop year with fruit of good
quality, size, color and .finish.
This they hope to offer the con-
sumer in comparision to' the 1945
crop, which due to unfavorable
conditions,_: was one in which the
growers were not proud of their
product.
USE OLD WIRE
Due to scarcity of wire.: and
twine, many hay balers in Mich-
igan will not be able to operate
this year. Some authorities pre-
dict that -one-half of the balers
will be idle.
Agricultural engineers at Mich-
igan State college suggest that
farmers gather up their old wire,
straighten it and use it again. In
some cases, wire has been used
as many as three times with
good results.
Plans for a simple straighten-
ing device may be obtained from
local county agricultural agents
or from the agricultural engineer-
ing department at Michigan State
College.

E More than any other private business, "

because there is nothing , which com-
pels the use of- electricity exclusively
in the operation of many household
appliances.
-
Industries are free to build plants for
the manufacture of their own electric
power, and'a few have done so.
Because of the existence of real competition, The Detroit Edison Company is;re-
quired to produce so efficiently that the industrialist cannot afford to generate his
own power. `
Detroit Edison is required to serve the home so well that its occupants will PREFER
{' electricity.
Beyond all this is the ever-present fact that our customers'—you, the householder,
the farmer, the merchant and the manufacturer—expect nothing less than the BEST
from The Detroit Edison Company. We are in constant competition with that
standard of price; dependability and service which you fix for us—with your idea
of what Detroit Edison should be.
Upon our ability to meet that competition depends our right to survive and prosper.
Direct competition by another electric company is eliminated by law as a matter
of public policy. That policy permits exercise of the economies of mass purchases
and mass production without wasteful duplications. The safeguards of public
regulation -are combined with the enterprise and efficiency of private management.
The objective and the result—extraordinary service at reasonable cost.
