Through the efforts of the Liv-
onia township Health Guild and
your township officers the Visit-
ing Nurse Association of Detroit
has been asked to extend its
services to Livonia.
When the Guild representatives
met with Miss Emilie Sargent,

explained under what conditions

able to service our community.
The committee then arranged
for Miss Sargent to meet with
Jesee Zeigler, Township Super-
visor, Harry S. Wolfe, Township

A GOOD WORD FOR A GOOD OFFICIAL.
Whenever we see a public official doing an especially
good job we are always pleased to say a good word for that
official. This applies directly to Supervisor Jesse Ziegler of
Livonia township.
Almost overnight a township that a few years ago was
chiefly a farming section of the county has grown to be a
township -community of nearly 20,000 population with all the
problems and the tribulations of a metropolitan center of
that size. We might say the affairs of Livonia township are
far more complex than those of a city of similar size because
of the extensive area covered by the township.
Supervisor Ziegler has grown up with these problems.
He has been instrumental in finding the right 'solution to
most of them. Probably no other resident of the township has
a greater knowledge of its affairs than Supervisor Ziegler.
He has been a tireless worker and through his efforts
Livonia residents are now enjoying nearly all of the benefits
and advantages of a metropolitan center, and without the
disadvantages of a congested city.
His friendly contacts with county officials and the board
of supervisors have opened the door more than once to the
advantage and betterment of Livonia township.
Plymouth's big neighbor to the east, although possess-
ing more than 18,000 population, is just beginning to grow,
like all of this part of Wayne county. One can safely predict
that within the next 10 years it will have a population in ex-
cess of 25,000. Supervisor Ziegler has done an excellent job
in directing the affairs of the township from a strictly farm-
ing community to one of the highly important and desirable
business and residential localities in Michigan. We are
pleased to have an opportunity to commend him for the
splendid work he has done in behalf of Livonia township
and its residents.
Group ,Adopts Sales Tax
Diversion Resolution Sunday
Sunday afternoon at the Liv-
onia Center School, a -group of
people interested in the school
situation in this area met to adopt
a resolution addressed to the
Honorable Elton R. Eaton, Repre-
sentative of the seventh district,
the Honorable Clarence Reid,
Senator of the eighteenth district
and Governor Kim Sigler in
which they requested -that the
Sales Tax Diversion amendment
remain as it is at the present time.
The meeting was under the
auspices of the Livonia Woman's
club with Mrs. Violet Dallas as
chairman. Mrs. Dallas set the
spirit of the meeting by quoting
Lincoln's second inauguaral ad-
dress, "With malice toward none,
with charity for all, with us "n
the right as God gives us the
power to see the right"
Supervisor Jesse Ziegler and
Supervisor Cook of Southfield
township were both called on to
state opinions concerning the
amendment in question.
The resolution which follows
was adopted and signed by most
of the people attending the meet-
ing.
WHEREAS, the qualified elec-
tors of the State of Michigan ad-
opted an amendment to the con-
stitution providing for the diver-
sion of a certain portion of the
sales taxe monies to local govern-
ments and schools, and
WHEREAS, the area adjacent
to Detroit is growing in popula-
tion so rapidly, we feel that there
is a need for sewers, water and
fire protection 'n this area, and
WHEREAS, There is a need for
better schools, better school facili-
ties, adequate teacher salaries in
this particular areas, and

"it is a fine idea to have Home
Economics and Manua., Arts in
the high schools. People must
'learn to use their hands as well
as their brains."
Another point that he stressed
was that in order to have smooth-
ly running schools it was neces-
sary for cooperation between the
parents, teachers and boards of
education. Split factions can cause
more havoc than any other cause.
Here he cited several instances
throughout the state where cer-
tain individuals because of their
lust for power ruined the ,pos-
sibilities of having ;good schools.
Dr. Carrothers then told some
of the history of the organization
of colleges in Michigan in 1932
and how the bill finally was ;pas-
sed in 1'939. "As a result, degrees
can no longer be purchased nor
colleges set up over night. At the
present time there are '22 applica-
tions for colleges on file and in
most cases these are "flyby night"

board of directors.
Of primary importance was the
discussion concerning the build-
ing of seventeen homes in Alden
Village by the Newman Farms
Development Company, which the
Association feels will lower the
value of real estate in that area.
These homes meet all the re-
quirements in regard to floor
space, but have an utility room
attached on the rear of the house.
Alden Village has made plans
to petition the Zoning Board in
the Township to set up restrictions
which they hope will prevent this
type of construction in the future.
Newly elected members of the
board of directors for two years
are: George Hembree, Paul Al-

A New Service Offered
To Local Residents
(Continued from page 1)
frey, representatives from the
Wayne County Public Health
Department, Walter J. Dunne of
the Wayne county Department of
Social Welfare and the Health
Guild Committee Members held
at the town hall a discussion at
which the services of these agen-
cies were explained. These con-
clusions were drawn.
First, there is no overlapping
in the health services of these
agencies and second, the people
of Livonia Township are in need
of hourly nursing service which
would be available to every one
on the basis of ability to pay.
As a result of these conclusions
the Township Board voted to peti-
tion the Visaing Nurse Associa-
tion of Detroit to come into Liv-
onia Township for a six month
trial period. I
If the ;people show that they
want and will use the service
offered the contract may then be
extended into the future.

Despite the bad weather there
was a fair turn out at the Coven-
try Gardens Improvements As-
sociation meeting last Wednes-
day evening. This was the first
meeting under the new officers.
The East side had lost at the
,previous meeting therefore the
refreshments were provided by
that side of the sudivision by the
committee consisting of Mrs. G.
W. Meier and Harvey Jahn. Under
the able guidance of this com-
mittee everyone received a valen-
tine advising him of his part in
the preparation of the refresh-
ments. This is definitely a good
way to get people to work to-
gether.
The West Side was the loser
this last Wednesday so next
monthly meeting they will pro-
vide the entertainment and re-
freshments.
If you have anything to sel, or
rent try a Livonian want ad. They

Hi kids! P.H.S.'s Rocks r;asket-
:ball team are again tied for first
place in the league, defeating the
Belleville cagers last Friday eve-
ning 44-33. The starting linup was
Becker, Dobbs, McIntosh, Farwell,
and Allen. Again DeWayne Beck-
er walked away :being high ,point
man with 1B to his credit. At the
end of the first quarter the score
was Plymoulhh414 Belleville -10;
the half was Plymouth -26, Bell-
ville-15; and at the third quarter
it was Plymouth -30, Bellville-22.
Plymouth stayed ahead constantly
and Bellville did not even tie
them at any timd during the
?game.
Trenton lost their game with
Redford Union last Friday night
by a score of 38-33 This is Tren-
ton's first defeat this season. That
gives the Rocks a good chance
to come out victor in the league
finals.
After the Plymouth-Bellville
game, the student council spon-
sored a 20c dance in the :gym of
Plymouth High School. They
danced to the music of recordings.
If by chance you should happen
Vora Bung's
GRAND RIVER AT LASHER
REDFORD
to stroll into one of the classrooms
of Plymouth High School, you
would probably .be asked to con-
tribute a coin or so into a little
white box which every teacher
has. The reason for this is that
P.H.S. needs a lighted night foot-
ball field, and they are trying to
collect money to at least get it
started.
The ,Shrine Circus is now show-
ing in Detroit and many of the
fellas and girls and their parents
have already or are going to at-
tend- There has been talk of it
going on around the high school.
Livonia Junior .High School had
a dance last Friday night at the
Newburg Church hall. They had
an orchestra from Farmington
play for them. This dance was
sponsored by the Livonia P.T.A.
Last Saturday evening the Boy
Scout troop S-1 of Stark put on
a father and son banquet at the
Newburg Church hall. There was
a good attendance, good entetain-
ment.
That's all this week guys and
gals. Happy Valentine's 'Day!
