"We paid out of our own pocket for the coast line towers so nec- essary to our defense during the months when our country strug- gled to prepare itself for the emergency into which we had been plunged. The men who sat through the days and nights watching the seas for the air fleets every one expected to blow up our coastal cities, were the veterans of the first World, War who know what war is all about. But this little thing is only a mere part of all that the Legion is doing to help win the present World War," Mr. Alexander told the Rotarians. "When we found that our country had no :protection along the sea coasts, the Legion quick- ly erected and manned 2370' of these watch towers that to this very day are a part of our de- fense system. "Not only are we doing our part in helping to win this war, but we are looking into the fu- ture, looking forward to the time when we will have thousands up- on thousands of new veterans, sick and wounded, to care for, just as we have the wounded soldiers of the first World War to aid and comfort. "Michigan's Legion department has always been right out in the forefront in veteran welfare work and it is our purpose to keep this lead," he declared. He revealed the surprising in- formation that more than 150,000 veterans of the first World War are now -serving in the armed forces in this war. `But our biggest job is win- ning the peace after we have won this war—a peace that we are fast losing in this war. "Every member of the Legion realizes the importance of this task and to the winning of the Peace, every Legion member is devoting his full effort." Mrs. Ernest Bentley of Berwick avenue, Rosedale Gardens, ac- companied her son Larry, Carl Van Coevering of Ingram avenue and Frank Cooper of Arden avenue to Grand Rapids on Mon- day, where the boys will be at Camp Rogers for three weeks. Mrs. Bentley continued on to Grand Haven where she will be the guest of Mrs. C. H. Groth for a few days. She will be accom- panied home by her other son, Dale, who has spent the month of July at the Groth cottage, as the guest of Dick Groth. The wedding of Sybil Bassett and Carl E. Johnson which was held last Friday was officiated by Rev. Carson, of Newburg. The bride wore a blue street length dress with a corsage of white and red roses.

The bride and groom left for Niagara Falls Saturday night and returned Monday. 0 Ensign and Mrs. Howard Dick- ey left on Friday evening for New York City where Ensign Dickey. will, be stationed, after spending several days with Mrs. Dickey's parents, Mr. and Mrs. F.

Has Birthday- Gives War Bond Livonia's popular Rexall drug- gist is celebrating his first an- niversary in business in this area. Yes sir, Cecil Habermehl is having a birthday and a birthday party for all of the residents of Livonia. - It's not the old fashioned ice cream and cake kind that you might think but it is a party and quite a party at that. In appre- ciation for all the nice things that have been done for him since coining to Livonia a year ago he is staging a kickers handi- cap golf tournament at Haw- thorne Valley golf club the first week in August. Yes, it's open to everyone and all you have to do is register your handicap at the Rexall drug store in Rosedale Gardens then go over to Hawthorne Valley and play 18 holes of twilight golf. After you complete the game bring your score back to Mr. Habermehl and he will post it along with all the others . . . is it worth the effort? We'll say it is, because the winner will be presented with a $25.00 war bond and there will be consolation prizes too. Tickets for the big match are now on sale at the drug store and Mr. Habermehl hopes that everyone will enter the contest and try to win one of the prizes. Any additional information about the contest can be had by calling at Mr. Habermehl's store. 0 Processing Book Available Mrs. A. T. Petersen, Victory Gardens chairman for Rosedale Gardens has several copies of the Extension Service leaflets on "Storing Vegetables for Winter," "Drying Fruits ancl, Vegetables," and "Pressure Cooker Canning."

DeRoy Jewelers Send Cigarettes The DeRoy Jewelry company of Redford, this week announced a patriotic service that should add to the enjoyment of hun- dreds of men in every branch of military service. In this new service DeRoy's will send a car- ton of popular brand cigarettes with their compliments as a birthday gift to any serviceman whose name, address and birth- date is furnished by a relative. The necessary information can be furnished in person to any mem- ber of DeRoy's staff. In announcing this unusual service, Samuel Barbas, an ex- ecutive of DeRoy Jewelry Com- pany said, "DeRoy's policyhas always been one of friendliness. If we can in any way add en- joyment to the lives of our friends in service, we are only too happy to do our small part. It is just another phase in the neighborly spirit that prevails at DeRoy's." Elsewhere in this edition read- ers will find more complete de- tails of the plan incorporated in a DeRoy advertisement. Relatives of a member of any branch of the United States Armed Forces are urged to furnish DeRoy's' with the necessary information in the space provided in DeRoy's advertisement and bring to De - Roy's store. DeRoy's will mail a carton of cigarettes prepaid to . the serviceman to reach him as near to his birthday as possible. This applies only to servicemen stationed in. the United States, and in the event the name of a serviceman is furnished by more than one person, only one carton of cigarettes will be mailed. DeRoy's are anxious to remem- ber as many servicemen as pos- sible on their birthdays and ev- eryone is urged to cooperate by supplying DeRoy's with the ne- cessary information. —c Flower Show September 11th Saturday, September 11, is the date set for the annual flower and vegetable show sponsored by the Rosedale Gardens branch of the Woman's National Farm and Garden association.

This coun- try alone has more horsepower than the combined total of all our enemies. Here in Detroit and southeastern Michigan, the power supply of The Detroit Edison Com- pany totals more than a million -and -a -half horsepower. More than half of this enor- mous power pool is being used directly in war production. During 1942, power for war production totaled over TWO BILLION kilowatthours. The combined generating capacity of all Detroit Edison power plants totals 1,655,000 horsepower. Insofar as one can be sure of anything in time of war, there should be no shortage of electricity in this section, and all war plants will continue to get elec- tric power to meet peak production: The Detroit Edison Company. ELECTRICITY IS NOT RATIONED. BUT ITS PRODUCTION REQUIRES COAL AND RAILROAD TRANSPORTATION, DON'T WASTE IT!
