They are the terminal point in the two-way chain of Red Cross Service link- _ ing the fighting man overseas with hiss family back home. From every "corner . of the wold, wherever there are Amer- ican soldiers, sailors or marines, the Red Cross life -line stretches ;back to the U.S.A., linking our - boys everywhere to the folks_at home. Hub of the entire system is to be found in Washington, D.C., national headquarters of the Red Cross. An entire floor is known as the correspondence unit of na- tionai home service, and here the emergency messages are relayed, more than 1000 a day, between Red Cross field directors, station- ed with our troops overseas to home service workers -in. 3,755 Red Cross chapters covering ev- ery county in continental United States and its insular and foreign possessions. Here in the United States there is in most instances no need for a central relay post. Di- rect telegrams and sometimes even long distance telephone calls set the machinery of serv- ice, in motion, meeting emer- gencies before, they become tragedies, keeping spirits high at home for the sake of the boys at camp. Trouble does not always come between 9 and 5, and there must be a home service worker on call in every chapter 24 hours a day, seven days a week. " Often :the, request is not for emergency service, but for friend- ly helpwith family problems Which are causing an American boy far. away to worry about ,the folks back home. Sometimes the home service wrker becomes Cupid's right- hand man, as in the case of the sailor, 'home on furlough to be married, who encountered a blizzard which- cut off the power in the laboratory so that the re- sults of his required .phisical ex- amination could not be obtained, and snowed in the only judge capable of waiving the require- ment. The local Red Cross chap- ter backed up his request for an extension of furlough by wiring verificatin of his predicament to the Red Cross field director at the naval base. Sometimes the home service worker serves as personal shop- per for a - home town boy far . from home—a special pair of shoes for a soldier on Guadal- canal who had always worn shoes made by a certain shoemaker back home and whose feet could not :get used to any other kind— an engagement ring for a girl who "works in a bank, is a little too thrifty, and might just de- posit the money if I sent it to her direct." Most frequently, the job of the . home service worker is a straight job of obtaining medical and psychiatric reports for the use of army and navy doctors—helping the: families of service men and women" with .personal and social problems ranging_ all the way from financial need to assistance in the filing of claims and appli- cation forms. Probably the home- service worker can best be described as . a neigh-bor—a friendly "person in a soldier's home town who has gone a step farther and learned about such things as military, regulations, proper procedures in filing veterans' claims, how to enlist the cooperation of other social and health agencies in the community, and how to use all (Continuect on next page) 0 Miss Emma DuBord put on a canning demonstration at the Stark school last Tuesday morn- ing.

The activities started with a parade to advertise the rally throughout the community at 6:30 p.m. At about 7 p.m. the Scouts started their demonstration, with commando tactics, a first aid -dis- play, signaling, rope climbing and other phases of this work. Small flag pins were distribut- ed among the large crowd 'and very generous donations were given. There was an air -rifle shooting gallery and a pop stand for the entertainment of the crowd. Several cakes were do- nated and auctioned off by Wil- liam,. Newstead, who acted as master of ceremonies. At the conclusion of the boys' demon- stration, a movie was shown. The committee arranging the show was: Clifton Heffron, Scout Master, and his two assistants, Charles Guideau and Ernest Bat- ten," and the following other men: John Gage, Horace Stokes, Archie" Campsall, Henry Boeh- mer,- and Mr. Case. All put in a good many -hours work and are to . be complimented upon their results.

In the' past few weeks many windows have been broken , and other property smashed by children who live in. the area of the school. Several =boys have been warn- ned and some of their parents notified of their actions" but this - has brought no relief so the only other way of approaching the problem is to demand police action. ° The annual election of the district will take place July 12 at the township voting booth at the corner of Plymouth and Merriman roads.

Our present Army is the best trained, best disciplined, nest behaved in American history. That's why I get my hair up when I hear of some cople trying to dry up the areas around Army camps. Why, in a recent report made by the government, it said the Army usually prefers its camps to be Iocated in wet in- -tead of dry communities. And there's a ,ound reason. In a wet community the Army can control drinking. In dry com- nunities where bootleggers run wild it's al- 'nost impossible.

They've worked together in Civilian Defense — shared their cars to save gas and tires — and they are sharing telephone service in the same friendly spirit. With more and more people being asked to share party lines, as a war measure, there is a real opportunity today to practice good. , neighborliness. Being considerate of others who are on the same line helps to improve service for everybody. 41CHIGAN BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY. A GOOD -NEIGHBOR CREED A good party line neighbor thinks of it this way: "Some- body else on my line may be waiting to make a call, so I i won't talk any longer than I have to. When the line is in use and I'm waiting my turn, I won't interrupt. *When!I finish a call,, I'll make_ sure I've hung up properly; be- cause if one instrument is t left `off the hook' it puts all t the telephones on the line 1 out of service."

That's a lot of extra light for your money. But that isn't all, because residential electricity today is costing you only about half of what it did back in 1910. That's what scientific research and development have done for your comfort and for the protec- tion of your eyes when you read or sew or work THREE WAYS TO MAKE SURE YOU USE ALL THE EXTRA LIGHT SCIENCE HAS GIVEN YOU ' = 1. Avoid glare. Glare from bare bulbs or , wrongly placed lamps makes it hard to see ' with comfort, no matter how much light you have. ' 2. Avoid shadows. When you read or work in your own shadow i you are using only a part of the light that is available. It is just as easy to use it all. i 3. Dirt and, dust collecting on light bulbs and reflectors can cut your light in half. Clean them regularly. i THE DETROIT EDISON COMPANY Page. 8 THE LIVONIAN Want Ads O Only 25c Phone Plymouth 16 FOR SALE FOR SALE—Ladies' shoes and dresses. Phone Livonia 2601. FOR SALE—Seed potatoes.
