Save electricity to save coal!
The government asks the utmost conser-
vation of electricity to save coal, man-
power, transportation and critical war
resources. Turning off your office lights for
an hour at lunchtime may not seem like
much of a saving. But one or two lights in
thousands of offices, turned off one hour a
day, will save in a year thousands of tons
of coal vitally needed today.
-Electricity is not rationed and there is no
shortage of electric power in this area.
The Government asks you to reduce your
use VOLUNTARILY as part of the national
,conservation program. Save electricity
whenever and wherever you can—in
store and office and home. The Detroit
Edison Company.

Our teacher, Mrs. Waterman,
read us the interesting story, Let

It was dramatized -on the Radio

The Fourth War Loan
Buy stamps and bonds every
week. That will help make the
enemy weak. Buy stamps and
bonds for the Fourth War Loan,
and that will make Herr Hitler
groan. Buy some bonds for our
boys over there and German sol-
diers will be very rare. So come
on, get up and do your work.
Don't you be a lazy jerk. So help
the Fourth War Loan and help
bring our boys back home.
—Jack Gage, Grade 7.
Fourth War Loan Drive
We are helping keep boys alive,
By buying .bonds in the War
Loan Drive,
We are helping to build more
tanks,
And Uncle Sam, to you says
thanks.
And when he comes to your door,
He will ask for more and more,
If you have it please give and give
To help the boys over there live.
Please buy bonds and more
stamps,
And the Axis will have the
cramps,
Don't buy, less and less,
We want ,the Japs to be a mess.
And the Chinese they do help,
`Silly Solly' make Japs yelp,
And MacArthur wants us to buy,
And help him to knock Japs out
of the sky.
Tojo is the best,
Hitler has gone to rest,
Mussolini has gone for good,
But all their heads are made of
wood.
The true American way,
Is what you have to say.
We buy the War Bonds
The Air Force sends the bombs.
The true American way,
Comes out of your pay,
And what you have to do,
For the Red, White and Blue.

The first grade have a new
home. It is green and very
pretty. We moved into our new
home Monday, January 10, 1944.
Our room has eight windows and
two doors. We like to go out the
back door. It is fun. Also there
is a furnace right in one end of
our room. Sometimes we put
our lunch papers in the furnace.
Now we can go to school all day.
We like that very much. Would
you like to visit our new home?
We would like to have you come.
The fifth and sixth grade put
upon our front bulletin board, sil-
houette of Benjamin Franklin
and two of his wise sayings. The
sixth grade is studying about
China long ago. They drew pic-
tures of it and put them on the
back bulletin board. We wrote
a story on why we should save
paper. We had two judges to see
which was the best three. The
first was Bob Snodgrass. The
second was Barbara Reynolds and
the third was Beverly Wollgast.
The boys and girls in our room
are having a race in buying de-
-dense stamps. So far the girls
are ahead by one. The fifth
grade drew maps of Michigan and
they put them upon the back
blackboard.

Home -makers can take a tip
from Navy cooks on soup making.
They let soups cool after cooking
so that the fat will rise. When
it has hardened, they remove it
and reheat the soup for serving.
When the fat can no longer be
used for cooking, it is turned in
for glycerine.
If a great change is to be made
in human affairs, the minds of
men will be fitted to it; the gen-
eral opinions and feelings will
draw that way.—Burke.

Attention Please: Livonia Cen-

at 8 o'clock sharp and the pro-
gram will go on at 8:15. The
speaker will be Mrs. H. Wieduttes
of Detroit, who is very well
known in and about Detroit and
we are very fortunate to be able
to have her. She is going to dra-
matize The Robe by Lloyd C.
Douglas. It will be worth every
effort made to come out and hear
her. This meeting, as all our
meetings, are open to the people
of this district and not only the
PTA members. Lets show our ap-
preciation for this fine speaker by
having a good turnout. Come and
bring a friend with you. A busi-
ness meeting will be held after
the program. Mrs. John Hacker
will be the chairman of the re-
freshment committee.
PIERSON PTA
Pierson Parent Teachers As-
sociation will hold their regular
meeting at the Pierson School on

January 27 at 8 p. in. There will
be a panel discussion with three
speakers on Children's Health.
Teacher's side will be given by
Mrs. Eric Anderson on What the
teacher expects of the home and
mother. The Mother's side will
be given by Mrs. William Bell
Given Highest Award
Lieut. John C. Morgan as he was
awarded the Congressional Medal of
Honor. He returned his plane to
England while the pilot and all gun-
ners were unconscious from injuries.
on What Parents expect of the
school in co-operation to health.
Dr. Hotchkiss will give the
health officer's viewpoint and
sum up the two sides and he will
find a medium. He will also
speak on the Doctor problem and
tell when it is wise to call a Doc-
tor and when not to call a doc-
tor. Also what you should know
about the illness before you talk
to the Doctor to save both your
time and the Doctor's time. This
should bring a better under-
standing between the school and
the home.
The cross is the central emblem
of human history. Without it
there is neither temptation nor
glory.—Mary Baker Eddy.
Few things are impracticable in
themselves: and it is for want of
application, rather than of means,
that men fail of success.—Roche-
foucald.
