Underwriters Assn
"More homes are destroyed by
fire than were built this last
year," was the opening statement
made by Captain Loren G. Far-
rell, of the Detroit Fire Depart-
ment who gave a very interesting
talk this past Monday at the Ro-
tary meeting.
"Conditions have become so
critical that the President of the
United States called a conference
this year of the leading authori-
ties to see what steps could and
should be taken," Captain Far-
rell said.
Fire fighting appears glamor-
ous, but in reality it is fire pre-
vention that is most important,
Captain Farrell told how preven-
tative measures were taken by
fire departments before medical
authorities, and police authorities
realized that preventian was
much more important than com-
bating the menace after the pa-
tient was sick or the crime had
been committed. In continuing

Mr. and Mrs. John Martin
Win Numerous Prizes
at Michigan State Fair
After the Michigan State Fair
closed this past week, Mr. and
Mrs. John Martin were richer to
the extent of $237 in prize money.
Mrs. Martin was modest about
the whole affair, but after much
questioning finally admitted that
she had won several prizes for
her canned goods and had won
the Sweepstakes for her pickles
and jellies.
Mr. Martin took first place in
Vegetable Collections, third in
the Horticultural display and
many other premiums in the sin-
gle entries. Agents and salesman
need not call on the Martins, for
the $237.00 has already been
allocated.

Superintendent Harry O. John-
son estimates that the enrollment
will run between 1,950 and 2,000
pupils. One of the most congested
spots was the Rosedale kinder -

onsing Problem
James Rossman Tells
of His Headaches
Other schools in the State are
confronted with building prob-
lems, class rooms, housing too
little and too old, lack of money
such as confronts the Livonia
Township School Board.
"Pennfield Schools plagued for
years by these problems is turn-
ing to the pioneer methods remi-
niscent of the house raising bees
of a century ago to solve its hous-
ing_ problem," was the statement
made this past week by James
Rossman, former principal at the
Newburg School, and who "now is
the Permfield Superintendent.
Mr. Rossman prepared the way
by telling the residents of his dis-
trict how the Livonia Schools in-
augurated the "hot luncY' pro-
gram in Livonia for the fraction
of the cost estimated by contrac-

tors and equipment houses.
The answer to the Pennfield
problem was, "What are we wait-
ing for, let's do something now,"
made by Carl Rabbitt. Pledges
are now rolling in for the con-
struction of the combination class
room building_-` and bus garage.
Sometimes it is money that is
pledged and sometimes it is sid-
ing, cement blocks, steel windows,
sand and gravel. Regardless, plans
are completed for a 68 by 72 foot
cement block structure. The foot-
ings are already in and work is
moving ahead rapidly through
the aid of volunteers. Since the
start of the school building, $2,000
has been received _ from an in-
terested party in California who
first received his education at the
Pennfield Schools.
"Another, universal question is
the problem," Mr. Rossman said,
"of hiring teachers and keeping
those we already have. Our solu-
tion was to call them all in, tell
them how much money we had
available :or teachers' sale_ies
and then let them draw up their
own schedule. This was done and
they are paying themselves less
than what they had originally
asked for last spring."
Possibly a return to the "good
old days" is the answer to many
of todays problems.

WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON
LADIES' BOWLING LEAGUE
On Wednesday, September 10
the fall and winter season of the
Wednesday afternoon ladies'
bowhing league got under way. At
the annual meeting Mrs. Myrt
Henrion was elected to the office
of Vice President. The Henrion
family expect to leave this part
of the country and. make their
home in Florida, due to this the
bowling league was forced to elect
another Vice President. Mrs. Doris
Curtis was unanimously elected to
the office of Vice -President.
There are just six teams again
this year, and it was the hope of
the officers that there would be
enough ladies to make it an eight
team league. Anyone wishing to
enter a team or who wants to
bowl should call the Livonia Rec-
reation and leave their name and
telephone number.

also found Stark school with 58 in
one class. The answer to this pro-
blem was to move some of the
Fourth, Fifth and Sixth graders
to Newburg and open another
room. Stark teaching loads have
now been reduced to 37.
Wilcox First grade was over-
flowing with 65 students. They
were rerouted to Livonia Center,

everyone was made extremely
happy with the first home work

All told, the enrollment will
run about 350 over last years and
at the present time one more tea-

Pro -rated cost- of 'additional
trout produced in a trout stream
fitted with current deflectors that
dig pools is $1.24 per trout, con-
servation department fisheries re-
search men have concluded from
a five-year test at Hunt Creek
i experiment station.
This price puts the additional
trout produced by stream im-
provement devices in the same
cost class as trout reared to legal
size in hatcheries. Cost of legal -
size hatchery fish was last com-
puted at more than a dollar by
the time it reached the fisher -
mans creel, and hatchery costs
t have been increasing.
The big difference, the fisheries men say, is that the additional
supply available because of stream improvements are better fish, in
flavor and as fighters, because they are wild.
Normal life of stream improvement structures such as deflectors
that dig pools is estimated at 20 years. At Hunt Creek, in Montmor-
ency county, the test section improved five years ago has averaged
36 additional keeper trout creeled each year since the improvements
were made, with no stocking of hatchery trout in that period.
Curiosity killed the fox that stopped to look at the car that stop-
ped when the fox crossed the road ahead of it.
Driver of the car was G. A. "Andy" Ammann, conservation de-
partment grouse investigator. He was on the road near Sharon in
Kalkaska county when he stopped his auto, noticed the fox stopped
too, about 30 yards back in the brush. Ammann had time to -get out,
string his bow, select an arrow and let fly.
The arrow scored a neck and skull hit. With the aid of a dog
Ammann easily tracked and brought in the fox, a full grown
female. And Ammann`s' archery game score now reads deer, rabbits,
squirrels—and fox.
When one of Swan Creek wildlife experiment station's rac-
coon den -boxes was found missing on a recent check-up, a search
located the tagged den tree with an improvised ladder alongside and
other evidence this was not an ordinary souvenir hunter's theft. The
thief had taken the box and contents, not to get a trophy for his
own backyard but to take home a mess of wild honey.
A bluewing teal banded by Herb Miller of the conservation de-
partment's game division at Munsucong bay has just been reported
recovered eight years later on the French island of St. Pierre -1,300
miles east of the banding point and as far east as the duck could go
without hopping the Atlantic for Europe.
Game men were quite as interested in the fact that the teal sur-
vived eight- years of hunting after the banding as that it had wan-
dered so far afield from its usual north -south migration route to
South America.
In about two years visitors to New York City may see in the
famous American Museum of Natural History a distinctive Michigan
scene: beaver from Gladwin in an authentic, lifelike beaver pond
setting.
The museum's expedition found "just` what they wanted" in
Gladwin refuge. With the assistance of Dr, G. W. Bradt, Michigan's
beaver authority, specimens to make up a family group were trap-
ped, sketches- and photographs made,. and materials collected for the
painstaking job of creating, where millions may see it, this bit of
Michigan.
The expedition is led by T. Donald Carter, the museum's assist-
ant curator of mammals. Its artist is Perry Wilson, its "accessories
man Freidoun Jalayer. The beaver exhibit will be Michigan's only
"show" in the museum's new hall of North American mammals.
Historical considerations as -well as the state's current beaver
pelt production made the Michigan settting a natural choice.
Four broods of sharptailed grouse averaging eight chicks per
brood were found on the 600 acre Grass lake burn this month, but
search with a bird dog of surrounding territory within a half -mile
radius flushed no other sharptails.
The birds' preference for the spot burned last summer in a con-
trolled burning experiment was discovered by conservation depart-
ment grouse investigator G. A. Ammann, concluding a statewide sur-
vey of sharptailed grouse a -id prairie chicken conditions here.
Ammann found nesting late throughout the grouse country. In
his opinion the 1947 sharptail population is "slightly better" than it
was a year ago over the entire sharptail range. He found prairie
chicken colonies still fe wand small, but apparently "holding their
own."
Investigation of the July smelt die -off in Crystal lake revealed
no clue to the epidemic, but the observers did determine that:
Whatever killed the smelt killed them fast, as both stomachs and
intestines contained food, and swim bladders were bloated as by a
sudden rise from deep water; and
Ninety-five percent of. the specimens had irregularities in size
and shape of eye pupils, possibly indicating an abnormality, with
pathological implications, of the nervous system.
Specimens were taken to the conservation department's institute
for fisheries research in Ann Arbor, for microscopic examination.
A careless pedestrian was to blame for the wrecking of this truck
and the death of its driver. As the pedestrian suddenly crossed the

The cost of chartering this bus

Rotarians Hear Detroit
Fire Department Captain
(Continued from page 1)
Farrell pointed out that actually
fire prevention is 50 years behind
the times and very little has been
done.
European fire laws are much
more strict. The Napoleonic Law,
found on the continent, is such
that a person is liable for all dam-
age to his neighbors property and
in the eyes of the law is guilty
until proven otherwise.
In Detroit during 1946, 30 per
cent less destruction was caused
by fire than in the preceeding year
and this year it is running about
30 percent less than in 1946 al-
though one good fire could possi-
bly change the entire picture
Farrell said. As the result of this
decrease, Detroit is enjoying the
lowest insurance rates in years.
0:
Captain Farrell told the Rota-
rians some of the other duties be-
sides fighting fires of the depart-
ment. One is to inspect public
gathering or meeting places and
others the inspection of ma-
terials and general building in-
spections.
Some very interesting facts
were divulged on the cause of
fires, the various types of arson.
"Arson" he said, follows the di-
rect ration of business. When
business is good, you find few at-
tempts made to defraud. When
business is bad, arson takes a
great jump. Arson is also used to
conceal crime such as murders
and robbery. It also is used for
revenge when one party gets
angered at another and decides
that a good fire will help square
matters."
The last group is the pyro-
maniacs and pryo-maniacs are
found in all economic and social
classes of society.
The Livonia Fire Department,
it was revealed, was highly com-
mended by the Underwriters As-
sociation several weeks ago at
their convention in the East.
Their statistics are based on man
power, availability of water sup-
plies, types of construction found
in the community, and fire code.
Members of the Volunteer Fire
Department and Chief Cal Ro-
berts were guests of the Rotary
Club at the meeting.

rent try a Livonian want ad. They
