Decision to send the out -dis- trict students to Starkweather was prompted by the crowded condition of the Central Grade school. A comparatively few out -dis- trict students will be . accepted this year. There will be not to exceed 20 students from the Coopers Corners district, and a few who will be sent into Plym- outh by private families who are not otherwise satisfied with their own school districts. However, the school board de- cided that except for the Coopers Corners district, no new students will be accepted this year. All students which previously have attended the Plymouth grade schools will be permitted to con- tinue, however. The school board set the fol- lowing tuition schedule for out - district students who attend the Plymouth schools this year: Grades 1 to 6 inclusive, $61.50; grades 7 and 8, $81.50; high school, $20, plus the state allow- ance of $106.50. Representatives of the Coopers Corners district said that no plans are underway for holding a vote to determine whether that district should be incorporated into the Plymouth school district. Such a plan was projected last winter when the question of whether or not students from that district would be admitted here. Cooper Corners has a school building, but the census has been so small that it did not pay to operate it. Donald Brown, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Brown returned to his home on Blackburn avenue after visiting in Sarnia, Ontario, where he was the guest of his grand- mother.

Mr, and Mrs. Alex Brain and their children Mary Lou and Robert of Detroit were guests of Mr, and Mrs. Edward M. Zopff of Blackburn avenue on Monday evening. NORTHVILLE FAIR READY FOR LARGE CROWDS One of the outstanding features of the Northville -Wayne County Fair which starts this evening and continues through until next Sunday midnight, will be a famed rodeo show that has been one of the big hits at state fairs. In the group are some of the best known riders in the country. Other features of the fair will be a defense exhibit, to include a pa- rachute jump every afternoon, a display of Michigan-madt equipment including the amphibian jeep. Glenn "Richardson, superintendent of the poultry exhibition has announced that there are so many entries in his division that it has been necessary to build more coops. Intense interest also has been evidenced in the new Division V -for victory gardens: William Phillips, personal repre- sentative of President Roosevelt, is shown at the left talking with mem- bers of the American and Indian press, following his arrival at New Delhi, India. The trip was made by plane. In the center, with glasses, is Durga Das, of the Statesman. Half - hidden behind the turbaned man is Herbert Matthews, an American newspaper man. At the right, wear- ing a turban, is A. S. Iyengar of the Lahore Tribune. Flower <I ,• : l r The annual flower and vege- table show sponsored by the Rosedale Gardens branch of the Woman's National Farm and Garden association will take place at the Community House in Rosedale Gardens on Satur- day, September 11. Entries will be accepted from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. The judging will take place from 2 to '5 p.m. and the show will be open to the public from 5 to 10 p.m. Mrs. E. N. Wooster is general chairman, and she urges all gardeners to start plan- ning now to enter the prize pro- ducts of their Victory Gardens in this show. There will be a spe- cial section devoted to the en- tries of the junior gardeners, and it is hoped that there will be many entries. Canned fruits, vegetables, and pickles, must be brought to the Community House on Friday eve- ning, September 10, but all other entries may be made on Satur- day. Boutonnieres will be sold, as in past .years, with the proceeds of this sale going to the USO. 1 The August meeting of the Parent Teachers' association of Stark school will be held at the school on Tuesday evening, August 24 at 8 p.m. It is hoped that a good number of the members will be present, as the plans for the coming year will be announced. The executive board of the P.T.A. met on Monday evening, June 16, to discuss these plans, and a very interesting and var- ied program will be presented throughout the year. The Clarenceville school will open Monday, September 7, and for the first time students living in that district will be able to have twelfth grade work in their own school. The Clarenceville board of education voted the ad- dition of the twelfth grade at one of their early meetings this summer and new courses of me- chanical drawing, American his- tory, American government, Spanish, advanced Latin, advanc- ed shorthand and typing, trig- onometry, physics, consumer buying, bookkeeping, music, English literature and physical training will be added. Arrangements have been made with Redford Union schools for the use of the gymnasium in the Volney Smith school for basket- ball, high school plays and other high school activities. The fact that the Smith school is close to the east end of the Clarenceville district makes the transportation problem for children participat- ing in these. activities a compar- atively simple one for t h e school. All transportation will be furnished ,by the Clarenceville school. The board in taking the action felt that it would enable all of the children in the district to complete their schooling in their own community and also elim- inate the costly expense of going elsewhere to complete their last ,year. There are over 5;000 resi- dents in the Clarenceville area and the state aid funds will now be directed to this district. Soon after school opens the University of Michigan will be asked to make an inspection of the new classes so that the en- tire work at the high school may be accredited and the students enabled to attend colleges and universities throughout t h e country. Officials of the school expect an increased enrollment of 100 chil- dren bringing the school's total to nearly 1,100. School buses will start the ,year on the same schedule that they finished last ,year. The next regular meeting of the Mom's club will be held at the township hall on Five Mile road. on Tuesday, September T at 1.`30 p.m. The Mom's do wish that more members would plan to attend these meetings as there is so much work to be accomp- lished and so few women attend the meetings to help with the work. The August potluck luncheon, honoring the members who have a birthday this month will be held on August 24. 0 Red Cross New, A twenty -hour course in nutri- tion will begin early in Septem- ber and meet on Thursday eve- nings of each week. Exact time and place to be announced later. Miss Emma DuBord, county demonstration agent, will be the instructor. Ronald Dick, son of Mr. and Mrs. Carlton Dick who resideon Hubbard road is home on a 10 - day furlough from the Sea Bee training base in Virginia. Page 2 THE LIVONIAN Wednesday, August 18, 1943 Then's A Soldier Behind The Counter .Fighting, Too There's a soldier behind the counter of every store in every community today but he isn't put there by the government. He -hasn't any gold braid, or fancy medals, or campaign ribbons. He doesn't carrya rifle or hand grenade. His uniform is only a white coat, or a butcher's apron, or a vest and shirt sleeves. It's the local merchant who's fighting for his community—be- hind his counter. He's perform- ing duties more vital than ever before. And national manufacturers are agreeing that this local man is the merchant who counts! They are seeing the new picture in its true colors. They're recog- nizing that their supplies must go to smaller communities, their advertising must go on pages of smaller community newspapers. Their city chain stores no longer can reach out to, the suburbs - and -farther -out. There are many reasons: The gas rationing, for instance. Cit- izens in smaller communities aren't able to go to manufact- uring centers and supply houses to buy goods "off the floor." They aren't able to go to distant cities where choices aren't restricted to a few styles. Big packing houses aren°t within driving dis- tance -on "A" cards. They're re lying " much more on their local merchants.= And, those home -town men i' are doing their job! Take, for instance, the local drug stores. The shortage of doc- tors, -due to the tremendous num- ber of them in the armed serv- ices,:. has demanded that phar- moclsts step in to help with some of the less technical duties of the physician. The pharmacist is a soldier. He's fighting to keep America healthy in a time when health is all -important ---fighting to keep America well to keep America working. Johnny Pharmacist's work is doubling, even tripling every week. He's furnishing supplies for ailing folk who aren't able to trot off to a specialist every time something's wrong. The spe- .cialist isn't always available now. The drug store's duties mount daily. There's the blood bank that's providing the plasma for wounded soldiers—a service of inestimable value' in both war- time and peace time. There's the SQUARE DEAL BODY SHOP J. W. Selle and Son Expert.

There's the maintenance of the Emergency First Aid Station at each drug store, and the distri- bution point of First Aid Charts. Added to all this is a still more important duty: That of planning a program of sufficient merchandise, especially public health and prescription merchan- dise to take care of shortages. The prescription department is the heart of any .good drug store, it long has been conceded. The pharmacist is important to his community. He has been given essential status by the government. The, public has shown its rec- ognition of the importance of the prescription departments of drug stores by their steady patronage. And in wartime that faith and trust in the drug store must be still more sound. Wholesale concerns are quick to recognize the plight of the drug store that carries every- thing. They have spoken of the necessity of neighborhood drug- gists answering `all gestions, all complaints, with good cheer . . complaints because some product is not available . complaints because some familiar product has changed in taste or fragrance or appearance."

If you don't you'll just be wasting your time. The facts are these: The Office of Price Administration says that stamps 15 and 16 in your first ration book are good for ten pounds of sugar. That ten pounds of sugar is intended for canning fruit. In addition, each ration book holder is entitled to five pounds of sugar for the making of jams and jellies. That makes a total of twenty-five pounds of sugar alloted to each person for the purpose of canning fruit. Now, an additional allotment is obtainable if you can show that, the original twenty pounds has been used properly. Now, let's consider what is a proper use.

JOHN M. CAMPBELL PLUMBING and HEATING TIMELY THAT` SAVE ELECTRICITY and are practical and patriotic! YOUR REFRIGERATOR. Don't overcrowd your refrigerator or put hot dishes on the shelves to cool. Have refrigerator inspected periodically, and de- frost regularly. Don't open door any oftener than necessary. Locate refrigerator away from heat sources. YOUR RANGE. Use the deepweA cooker often— it's thrifty. Cook complete oven meals. Start your surface cooking on HIGH, then switch to LOW heat as soon as food comes to a full steam. Use very little water for cooking. Bringing large amounts of water to a boil wastes electricity: Foods should be steam - cooked (this helps conserve vitamins, too). On many electric ranges, cooking can be Finished with stored ,heat from the surface units, after the current has been turned off. YOUR OTHER APPLIANCES. Avoid overloading your electric washer. Do two washings instead of one, if need be. Don't run your washer longer than necessary -7 to 12 minutes per tubful -is usually enough. If your electric iron hasn't a thermostat to control the heat, pull out the plug when the iron is hot enough—and attach the cord again when additional heat is needed. This saves electricity. The same thing is true of your toaster—disconnect it when temporarily not in use, then plug it in again as needed. When baking or roasting in your electric cooker, don't waste heat by lifting the cover to "peek" at foods. The Detroit Edison Company. a Electricity is not rationed.
