and when he registered gave a
Detroit street address. He said
that a change of address was ap-
parently responsible for his fail-
ure to receive notices. He is in
3A and it is probable that the
board does not look upon his case
as seriously as that of one who
might be in the IA group.
In the list as published last
week, Lee Willoughby of North
Main street, Plymouth, is listed
as a conscientious objector. His
case is in the hands of the FBI.
The Plymouth board has been
instructed to turn over to the
FBI the names of the 13 other
Iocal delinquents.
In one of these cases, the regis-
trant Raynold Woupio, gave an
address on Grandville, this side
of Detroit, which has proved to
be that of a doctor who had never
heard of the fellow. The names
that will be forwarded to the
FBI are:
David F. W. Valentine, Maybury
Sanatorium, Northville.
Fidel Vieyra, 679 Adams street,
Plymouth.
Elias Vieyra, 679 Adams street,
Plymouth.
Victor M. Pratt, RFD 4, Marion,

Raynold J. Woupio, Detroit.
Carl V. Clark, Huck's Redford

In comparison to the number
reported from other induction
boards in Wayne county, the
number from the Plymouth in-

low. In fact, the average in this
district is barely a half of the
numbers reported from other

The fourth grade pupils have
started work on a booklet "Des-

.write our stories about desert
life. In our study of the Sahara

them for the second semester. .
School was closed Tuesday af-

Miss Ayers, from Junior Red

The children of the 7th and 8th
grades at Pierson school were

The children are also selling
seeds from which they receive
one-third of the proceeds.
Due to a government request
that all intermediate and high

THE OLD JUDGE SAYS. ,
"I couldn't help overhearing you, Mary,
when you asked Jim dere why they let the
liquor companies use sugar to make whiskey
when all the rest of us have to cut down on
it. I happen to know the answer to that.
"You see, the fact of the matter is, the
industry never has used a single pound of
sugar to make whiskey. The bootleggers were
the only ones who used sugar to make
whiskey. On,top of that, there's nota single
large distillery in the countrymaking whiskey
any more. They're all working day and night
making war alcohol for the government for
gunpowder, synthetic rubber, chemicals, and
medical supplies.
"Just as I told Ed down at the court-
house this morning, the government simply
wouldn't be able to get all this alcohol it
needs in time if we didn't have these
distilleries available ,and on the job " r; _ 1, ,

Mr, Man! Where's
That Old Razor
For The Navy?
Boys Are in
Serious Need of
That Extra Safety
Where's that razor—that
old, discarded safety razor you
haven't used in years?
Didn't you say last week
that you were going to get it
out, clean it up and take it
down to Cal Simon's store sc
that it could be shipped to the
thousands of Michigan boys in
Uncle Sam's navy who have
lost their razors due to sink-
ings of our naval crafts on
which these boys have been
fighting for you?
Yes, some good citizens of
Plymouth didn't forget. They
have not only contributed their
old safety razors, but some have
sent blades along with them. "
Hundreds, yes, thousands o
safety razors are needed.
The plea comes to you from
the mothers of Plymouth boys
in the navy. And we all know
that many of the big naval
crafts on which these boys
have been serving their coun-
try have gone down to the bot-
tom of the Pacific, carrying with
them everything except the
lives of the boys who were for -
lunate enough to be rescue&
Mr. Plymouth—Right now, go
dig up that extra safety razor you
have not used in years—clean it
up—and if you can't take it
dawn to the Simon store, send
it down. The boys in the navy
need razors badly!

What I myself saw in my four
years in Europe gave me a new
realization of the priceless rights -
which we here enjoy.
No secret polite can in the night
whisk us away, never again to be
seen by -those we love:
None of us can be deprived by any
party, state or tyrant of those pre-
cious civil liberties which our laws
and our courts guarantee.
None of us can be persecuted for
practicing the faith which we found
at our mother's knee.
None of us can be persecuted, -tor-
tured or killed because of the fact
that an accident of fate might have
made us of the same race as the
Nazarene.
No American can be placed by
f any party or government in a regi-
mented -vise which takes from him
or her either freedom of economic
opportunity or political religious lib-
erty.
What would the millions of unfor-
tunate men, women and children in
Europe give to be able to live and
enjoy such a way of -life?
Well, in this - war, those are the
things in our lives which are in
jeopardy. Our boys are dying to pre-
serve them for us.

"say yes" and fill those war stamp

DOZEN HELPING HANDS
for ly s day.,
You'd need a dozen helping hands to perform
all the jobs in your household now done by elec-
tricity. And if you had to hire extra help to do
this work, you'd appreciate even more how
LITTLE it costs you to do those jobs electrically.
Washing and ironing clothes, furnishing news
and entertainment by radio, making toast and
coffee, keeping time, vacuum cleaning rugs and
drapes, in addition to lighting your home—
electricity performs all of these tasks at a --cost
of 10c a day or less for many families. See how
inexpensively these electric servants work for
you (figured at 21/yc net per unit -the thrifty
"bargain" step in your residence rate) : ELEC-
'T'RIC CLOCK 31/2c a month, VACUUM
CLEANED 4c a month (used 20 minutes a day),
WASHER 6c a month (used 2%2 hours a week),
EL EC ITZIC IRON lc an hour, FOOD MIXER
115c an hour; WAFFLE IRON 11/2c an hour,
-111;hTING PAD 1/10c an hour, REFRIGER-
ATOR 16c a week, TOASTER 6c a month (used
5 minutes a day).
Probably nothing you buy today gives you
so much in return as your electric service. It is
one of the few things that has not increased in

Red Cross
News
Mrs. Eunice Rhoads, chairman
of the Livonia branch of the
American Red Cross states very
proudly that this branch ranked
second in all the nineteen
branches in Wayne county in the
number of • blood banks held in
the township. The sixth bank was
held in December and plans are
under way for another in the
near future.
Mrs. Harold Page, chairman of
defense enducation, reported the
completion in January of two
classes inhome nursing with
thirty-seven persons receiving
certificates. One class was held
at the Stark school and the other
at the Pierson school
The Canteen corp's chairman,
Mrs. Myron Anderson is very
anxious that all Red Cross work-
ers realize that the women who
are working so faithfully each
week at the Rosedale Gaidens
club house, are all volunteers who
have taken Red Cross canteen
and nutrition training and are
giving their time and energy to
this branch of the service in ord-
er to prepare and serve the de-
licious lunches which are being
served to the members of the
surgical dressings class each Fri-
day noon.
The Brownie troup of Girl
Scouts of Rosedale Gardens un-
der the leadership of Mrs. James
Lynch, have completed enough
squares for a large afgan which
they plan to present to the Red
Cross.

Scientists of the conservation
department's institute for fish-
eries research are using the sen-
sitive smallmouth bass and the
tolerant black bullhead in tests
of the toxicity of five waste pro-
ducts from the styrene process of
manufacturing synthetic rubber.
The tests are a necessary prelim-
inary to fixing neutralizing and
dilution requirements of making
such wastes harmless before
they are discharged into fishing
streams.
Of the two types of electric bat-
teries used in devices to aid hear-
ing,- 56 varieties of "A" batteries
have been reduced to two, and
more than 175 varieties of "B"
batteries have been reduced to
four standard types by the War
Production board.

Firemen Fight
$1,000.00 Blaze
Fire at the home of P. Hansen,
28912 Terrence avenue, caused ap-
proximately $1000 damage to
buildings and equipment. Efficient
work by the department was
greatly handicapped by lack of
water and icy ground, however,
with only three firemen, togeth-
er with two Wayne County dep-
uties and a handful of spectators,
Chief Roberts formed a bucket
line from a nearby creek and
kept enough water supplied to
the pumper's booster tank to fin-
ally extinguish the stubborn
blaze. Upon arrival of the depart-
ment they found their way
blocked by a stalled car in the
roadway approaching .the house
and it was necessary to move the
same into a convenient snow
drift where the owner will,, no
doubt, find it after the spring

Zukey and Strawberry lakes in
Livingston county could profit
from installation of brush shel-
ters along their west and north
sides, conservation department
fisheries research men report. An
increase in plant beds would be
the surest way of increasing fish
food and shelter and consequent-
ly fish, they say, but no method
for doing this is available. Gravel
spawning boxes for smallmouth
bass also are recommended for
Zukey lake.
