concerning street lights along

Board hoped to acquire these

A motion was made, seconded
and passed that Jesse Ziegler be

a report on all books read.
The fine art classes are working

was fine that they did not get a

"Yeah, it sure was . and say
Doc .. . do you know they have
not had a fire in the township in

the people in the township have

can't be just all luck because
there have been fires all around

Dr. Wilson stated, "Wneu the up for meat inspection where the

founded there were two em- over see the 32 slaughter houses re i �s

the inspection of milk, meat and
food in regard to sanitation and
cleanliness."
in continuing he pointed out
that all employees who work in
restaurants and so forth in the
City of Detroit are given Food
Handlers' cards. In order secure
these cards the employees must
have at least one physical inspec-
tion a year, which includes a chest
X -Ray. 13,250 food handlers' cards
were issued this year.
Dr. Wilson, who is a Veterinar-
ian himself, then explained to the
Rotary Club the three divisions of
a
Mill
every animal that is killed. If
there is anv doubt at all, a Vet-
erinarian is called in to make the
final check.
The Detroit Ordinance is the
same as the Bureau of Animal
Industry, which was set up by
the Federal Government. He also
said that many of the townships,
including Livonia, have recipocal
agreements with Detroit, in order
that their meat may be sold in
Livonia and the meat from Liv-
onia may be sold in Detroit.
In the past 32 years there has
been no out of any disease
from milk which was pasteurized
by any of Detroit's milk produc-
ers. Two million pounds of milk
are used each day in the City of
Detroit and this milk is furnished
by 12,500 farmers in the Detroit
"Milk Shed".
Dr. Wilson concluded with the
statement, "Food poisoning is our
chief concern and the most troub-
le comes from the large restaur-
ants rather than from the typical
`greasy spoons'. Outstanding in
the history of the Food Ordinance
in
in Detroit is that fact that the
Bureau has never lost a court
case even where they went in and
had Jo close a .place and were
then mandamused into court•"

THE ROSEDALE CIVIC
ASSOCIATION BEARS
JCHN IGL:AUER
When:' Arthur Neal called the
rosedale Civic Association meet-
ing to order Friday night, the
lub House was jammed with
about 150 persons from the Gar-
dens who were evidently inter-
ested in whether or not they go-
ing to incorporate.
Mr. Iglauer, of the Mich Munici-
oal League, was again the guest
speaker and he elaborated on
.many of the things he had told
the meeting in November as well
as going into great detail on the
advantages of becoming incorpor-
ated He stated, "That by becom-
ing a city, the people living in
Rosedale could set up a govern-
ment which would be responsible
to themand that they would have
local control. They would .be able
to set up an organization to do
their particular job.
Mr. Iglauer then enumerated
some of the conditions that the
residents would have direct con-
trol over such as zoning, police,
;:peed laws and taxation. In con-
tinuing the speaker pointed out,
"Townships were set up to rule
rural communities."
He then went on to, point out
some of the services that as a
town they would have to take
over: Elections, assessing, collec-
tion of taxes, Justice Court, road
maintainance and police protec-
tion.

,Mr,-Iglauer- discussed taxation
and what Rosedale,, might expect
to receive from the State from
the Intangible Tax, Liquor, Road
Weight Tax and possibly the
Sales Tax. The total might possi-
bly amount to $15,000 1glauer
stated.
Following or. Igiauer s inter-
esting talk, an open discussion
was held at which time many of
the residents of Rosedale Gar-
dens asked questions concerning
incorporation as well as talked
against it.
A motion was made and paased
that the matter be dropped in-
definitely, which will probably
be until the next meeting in
IViarch.
The Civic Association will again
sponsor the Rosedale Gardens Cub
Pack 1 and Scout Troop .l for the
ensuing year.

MARIE`S GIFT SLOP
31517 Plymouth Road — Rosedale Gardens
"The Gift to Please, Comes from Marie's"
HE, ADDED YEARSTO
YOUR, LIVING
This man who was born one hundred years ago this week
spent most of those years working to make our lives easier.
Today, we are apt to take his achievements for granted—to
forget the wondrous changes he made in our daily lives.
The stenographer little realizes the drudgery of office routine
without typewriter or duplicating machine; the saleswoman
can hardly imagine a busy day without gummed wrapping
tape.
The list of his achievements is long and varied, but most of
us have some special obligation to Thomas A. Edison. Every
worker who finds his lunch-time sandwich fresh in its waxed -paper wrapping—every G.I. who crossed
an ocean safely with the aid of radar and submarine detection devices—can thank -Mr. Edison.
But these specific contributions of the man become small and insignificant alongside his other gifts to
all mankind. For every one of us who sends a telegram or rides a street car—everyone who enjoys a
radio, a phonograph or a movie—can thank Mr. Edison.
Some of these gifts have made our lives safer. Some have given us more pleasure. Most have made
our tasks easier. But all are eclipsed by his gift of electric light. For with that one invention he,
in a very real sense, added years to our living. Those years are made up of thousands of evenings
. . . and since Mr. Edison's . invention of electric
light, evenings—with their hours of relaxation, of
reading :or games or good companionship—have
become the best part of our lives.
Evenings have also become a time for study. Men
and women today, fired by the example of Thomas
A. Edison, are using them to continue his research
for even better ways of living.
IN HONOR OF MR. EDISON .. .
The Detroit Symphony Orchestra this week
inaugurates:a new series of popular concerts each
Tuesday night at 7:30 over WWJ.
And don't forget the -Edison Institute Museum's
special exhibit this week at Greenfield Village.
9 aim. -4 p.m. daily. Admission 25c. All Edison
power plants will also be open this week from
1.3 and 5.8 p.m. daily, 10 a.m..4 p.m. Saturday.
