The regular monthly meeting

community singing of carols, and
the exchange of gifts.
The program, under the direc-

and Mrs. Kautz, brought forth
the wonderful talent of the child-
ren in school.
Those taking part were:
Peggy Ostrawski, "The Story of

Barbara Williams, "The First
Christmas Gift."
Accordian selections by Bobby
drivers can be thankful that so
many teachers are participating
so fully in the safety education
of the state's children," be said.
"School safety patrol work
coupled with classroom safety
education directed towards creat-
ing safer habits in walking and
playing will go a long way in
preventing the toll of deaths and
injuries caused by traffic now
and in the future." he added.
Records compiled by Michigan
State Police on traffic deaths of
school children from 1936 through
the present date show decreases
in such tragedies. That child traf-
fic deaths have been more than
cut in half in the last 10 years
can be attributed in no small
measure to the efforts of teachers
and the safety patrols, the Auto

With the need greater this year
than in the past six or seven
years, the Goodfellows, through
the generosity of many Livonians,
collected approximately $1,300
Saturday by the sale of the Good-
fellow edition in the Township.
However, all the money has
not yet been turned in and when
a final tabulation is made, the of-
ficials estimate that the fund will
top the $1,500 mark. This is $500
more than was collected last
year and in 1945. It is a job well
done and will help make a Christ-
mas for 150 families in the Town-
ship and make them realize that
they have not been forgotten.
The Goodfellows attempted to
contact everyone in the township
on the day of the sale but in case
you were missed and desire to
still make a contribution you may
do so by mailing it to the Good -
fellows, care the Township Hall
at 33110 Five Nile road.

Here lie the remains of a driver who thought he could drink and
still drive a car. Racing down the highway at a dangerous speed, his
car wandered off the edge of the pavement, dragged on the sandy
shoulder, and was wrenched into a spin. Drunken drivers are potential
murderers of every other motorist who comes near them on the road.
They were involved in more than 5,000 fatal accidents last year.
National Conservation Bureau safety specialists say even one or two
drinks slow up reactions, make judgment unsure, increase chances of
accident three to four times.

A modern electric heater gives you instant warmth from
your nearest outlet. Easy to carry, easy to operate. There is
no clearfer more convenient type of heat. These new, low-
priced heaters are ideal for warming baby's bath area, your
dressing room, bathroam, or grandmother's favorite corner.
And It Costs Only A Few Pennies An Hour ...
but unlimited use can cause high electric bills. For example,
a thousand watt heater at residence rates costs only 111/ac a
week when used one hour daily for seven days. This same
unit, however, when used 8 hours a day costs $1.40 a week
and -will add $10.20 to your two months' bill. Consult a
reputable electric dealer who can recommend a heater of
sufficient wattage to 'fit your particular needs. He can also
tell you just how much it will cost to operate,

"Has Charlie's mother in lave
arrived yet? When is she due?
What do you hear from Charlie?"
Charlie's . mother in law was the
chief topic around the Pen Mar
Cafe for the past several weeks
and Charlie is Charles Biagini,
partner at the Pen Mar.
Mr. and .Mrs. Biagini left two
weeks ago for New York City .to
meet Mrs. Anadina Dami, Mrs.
Biagini's mother, who was sched-
uled to arrive in New York on the
S. S. Saturnia, which sailed from
Genova, Italy.
However, the ship arrived, five
clays late and consequently every-
one was very anxious to get the
latest news. Mrs. Dami is 56 years
of age and a native of Pistoia,
Italy. The Biagini's left Italy 19
years ago and of course Mrs.
Biagini had not seen her mother
all these years.
Now Mrs. Dami is in Detroit
after a happy reunion and she
expects to stay in the States for
several months, then return to
Italy.

The First grade children are
exchanging 25 cent Christmas
gifts at their Christmas parties,
the p.m. group having theirs on
Thursday, and the a.m. group on
Friday. They are making pre-
sents, learning Christmas poems
and will decorate their own tree.
Grade Two—Miss Figg
Several of the children are
confined in their homes this week
with chicken pox. We are look-
ing forward for their returning
next week when we shall trim
our Christmas tree, and com-
plete our Christmas plans, ending
everything Friday with our
Christmas party and exchange of
gifts.
Grade Three—Mrs. Pioeger
Barry Covert has been absent
on account of illness, but is back
in school, and we are having
perfect attendance again.
We have had much fun making
Christmas posters and borders
for our room.
On December 19, we will have
our Christmas party. We will
have a short program. We are
writing original Christmas stories,
and we will have our best ones
read at our program.
Grade Five Mrs. Hughes
We are thankful for our peace-
ful and happy Thanksgiving.
Some had turkey, some had
chicken, some had rabbit and
some even had venison.
The following students have
been neither absent or tardy:
James Buchanon, Robert Busler,
Chirley- Cox,- Thelma -Diehl,
Thomas Hartsoe, Richard Merry,
William Meredith, Gerald McCall,
George Remer, Leroy Small, Bar-
bara Saukko and Glenn Reed.
Grade Six—Mrs. Weaver -
George Sobieck is a new pupil
in our room. He has been attend-
ing the Fianklin School in De-

The boys from our room who
helped with the entertainment
at the P. T. A. Monday right are
Bobby Markley, Marvin Wren,
Carl Galla, Adrian Dotson, and
Fred Benson.
If you want to hear some
Paul Bunyon Tales, ask the sixth
graders. We have finished read-
ing "Paul Bunyon and His Big
Blue Ox." We felt that the study
of Michigan would not be com-
plete without hearing the "tall
tales" that were told in the lum-
ber camps of Michigan. Each time
they were told, they were
changed. The Service Squad
girls and the Safety Patrol boys
enjoyed a roller skating party
Friday night. Mr. Singel accom-
panied them.
Grade Seven—Mrs. Kimball
Did you ever try to make your
own Christmas tree? We are
trying. We have taken some
bushy branches from an elm tree
and painting it white, then we
will cover it with artificial snow
and decorate it. We are hoping
for a beautiful substitute for a
Christmas tree.

Union high school basketball
squads fought it out in a cage
tilt of a 39-40 game ending up in
favor of R. U. H. S. In the last
few seconds of play, Jerry Allen

it was called no good because of
a technicality by the- referee.
Thus, the game went into extra
time at 37-37. Redford Union
scored again and so did the Rocks.
Then a foul was called on Ply-
mouth and the free shot was
made for R. U. thus winning the
game for them. Whatta game!

Sheriff Gives
Traffic a ort
For the sixth consecutive week,
there have been no fatilities in
t r a f f i c accidents on the out -
county highways, according to a
report of the traffic division of
Sheriff Edward Behrendt's road
patrol.
During the week from Decem-
ber 1 to December 7 inclusive,
there were 57 traffic accidents in
which one pedestrian was injured
and 19 passengers were hurt. The
accidents were caused by the
usual violations of non -obser-
vance of stop signs, speeding,
driving on the wrong side of the
road, and refusing to yield the
right of way. Traffic tickets were
issued to the offending driver.

reported during the past week,"
said Sheriff Behendt, "proves the
statement that nine out of ten
accidents are caused by violation
of traffic rules. Every one of
these accidents could have been
avoided had the drivers observed
the traffic laws.
"I urge motorists again to drive
with care, especially during the
approaching holiday season. Do
not spoil your own enjoyment for
Christmas and New Year and do
not spoil it for anyone else. Drive
carefully and don't drive if you
are drinking. Let's see if we can
go through the holiday season
with a reduced number of traffic
mishaps. Make it possible for
drivers to spend their Christmas
to home instead of in the hos-
pital."
Poisoned Material
Special care should be exercised
to prevent domestic animals and
livestock from being poisoned
through feeding on crop remnants
that have been sprayed, or by lick-
ing containers, or drinking water
which may have been contaminated.
Food Economy
Prepare only as much food as is
needed, and use economical meth-
ods. When the skins are tender,
serve summer squash, cucumbers,
carrots, tomatoes with skins on.
Save vegetable water to use in
stews, gravies or vegetable cocktail.
Conducts Electricity
Don't handle any electrical appli-
ance, pull a switch cord, touch a
switch, or plug into any outlet with
wet hands. Wet flesh is a better
conductor of electricity than copper
wire.
Rural Schools
Twelve million American school
children, or 50 per cent of the total
school population, attend rural
schools, but only 38 per cent of the
available funds for support of
schools goes to rural areas.
Wear Faster in Beat
