Schools Complete Staff The schools of Livonia township opened Monday morning, Sep- tember 18, with. a full staff of teacher's. There are three teachers new to the staff this year. Miss Ruth Alleshouse, will teach in the Junior high school at the New- burg school. Miss Alleshouse has her degree from York college and has had eight years of experience. Mrs. Anne Hiss Moisio will teach in the Junior high school at Li- vonia center. She has her Bach- elor's degree and her Master's de- gree from the University of Mich- igan and has had several years of successful experience in the schools of Michigan. The latest addition to the staff is Mr. Gay- lord Laughlin of Wayne, who will teach Science and assist with boy's physical education in the Livonia center school. Mr. Laugh- lin has a Bachelor degree from Central Michigan State Teacher's College and has taught and coach- ed in a number of schools in the Lower Peninsula. The school district is operating a fleet of three buses this year. The board of education is at- tempting to provide transporta- tion to the pupils of his area liv- ing beyond a mile and a half from the school. However, bus routes have been organized so as to pro- vide the maximum school trans- portation with the limited facil- ities available. After the war, when additional equipment be- comes available, it may be pos- St. Michael's Enrolls 350 Postponed because of the polio threat, classes of St. Michael Par- ochial school began on September 18. The number of students en- rolled for the 1944-45 school year now totals 350. This represents an increase since last year, the evi- dences of which are most obvious in grades l and 3. St. Michael school is situated in Rosedale Gardens on 'Hubbard off Plymouth road. Rev. John E. Contway is the pastor. The school is conducted .by the Felician sis- ters and the principal is Sister Mary Adeline. The school was opened for the first time two years ago on Sep- tember 21, 1942 with an enroll- ment of 220 pupils which grew to 288 the following year and shows an increase of over 60 this year. The large enrollment nec- essitated the construction of an additional story to the building, which now contains altogether eight well-equipped classrooms and a large hall used for lunches. The new story was completed this summer and is now occupied by the pupils. sible to increase these facilities. The bus drivers are: Hans Hart- mann, Merlin . Adams, and Mrs. Elsie Daniels. The three schools in the northern end of the dis- trict—Pierson, Wilcox, and Li- vonia Center are opening at 8:30 A. M. and closing at 3:30 P. M. Those schools in the southern end of the township—Elm, Stark, Rosedale, and Newburg are open- ing at 9:00 A. _di. and closing at 4:u0 P. M. The difference in open- ing times gives the district the additional half hour to use it's bus facilities, and thereby makes it possible to transport more pu- pils. This is the first year of consol- idation under the new arganiza- tion pians. 'i'ne schools have been consuudated to increase the Edu- cabiunai opportunities of all the cnuaren at Livonia township. r irs:c of all, a4 pupils, in the ele- mentary grades, with the except- ion of oeginners, will attend full say sessions. mach grade will have one teacher. The number of •pu- p�us per teacher will aproach the state average of approximately 35 pupils. An enriched reading pro- gram will be offered with supple- mentary texts and reference books added in other fields. The Junior High School organization set up under this new system, provides specialized teaching in all subject fields. Full one hour periods in these schools super- vised study constitute one of the features of this years program in Junior high. Health and Physical Education, music, art, for .boys and girls are a few of the offerings that will be available this year. Livonia township is 'ane of the first districts in this area to or- ganize and consolidate. The move- ment is state-wide, and others have .been encouraged to do this through the findings of the Mich- igan Public Education Commis- sion. During the week of August 18, the Department of Public In- struction reported that four new districts had been organized as follows "Antrim County — Mancelona Township Unit Schpol district formed an election held on Aug- ust 7, 1944. Huron County— Pigeon Rural Agricultural district formed at an election held August 8, 1944. Montcalm County— Vestaburg Rural Agricultural district for- med at an election held August 7, 1944. Arenac County— Omer, Tur- ner, Twining area. A Rural Ag- ricultural district was formed at an election held August 14, 1944. Among the many famous build- ings the cornerstones of which have never been located is the Capitol in Washington. P ie TWO THE LIVONIAN Wednesday, September 27, 1944 Old "Santa" Now On Way to "Our Boys" Overseas Christmas packages for men overseas already have begun to flow through the Plymouth post - office, but nothing as compared to what it will be in the next two or three weeks. The postoffice department has ruled that no packages will be accepted for delivery after Oct- ober 15. There are several rea- sons for the rule, but stop and consider the problem. The service man's outfit is con- stantly changing positions in both the Pacific and the Atlantic. Of- ten a piece of mail will follow him about from one town after another in France or Germany, or Italy, or in the Pacific. Last year, the postoffice de- partment delivered 20,000,000' pieces of !Christmas packages to the men overseas. This year, it is estimated that there will be 70,000,000 pieces of 'Christmas packages delivered. That tremendous increase also filters its way back to the local postoffice. The local ,postal clerks must handle that mail in the same way that all other mail is hand- led, and they must do it without additional help. In order to facilitate delivery, Christmas packages for the men overseas need not be inspected, but they must be no more than 15 inches long, and must not have a greater overall length and width than 26 inches. Postmaster Harry Irwin iDlead- ed with the parents and friends in Plymouth to mail their Christ- mas packages as soon as poss- ible. About 55 short-wave news pro- grams are now broadcast daily in English as well as the native lan- guage, from 20 foreign cities. Six- teen of these originate in Tokyo, nine in Berlin, four in Moscow and three in Hsinking, Manchu- kuo. Twice in recent years the rail- roads have been unable to accept pieces of frieght for transportation because of their large size. In one case, a giant oil tank had to be towed from Hoboken up the Hud- son and through the New York State Barge Canal and the Great Lakes to Chicago. In the other, case, the large pipes forBoulder Dam, owing to their 30' -foot di- ameter, had to .be fabricated at the site in a plant erected for the purpose.

Ferry Schedule For Hunters Frank Rambo manager of the Plymouth branch of the Secretary of State's office, announced this week that he now has available a number of fine highway maps for the 'benefit of 'hunters who plan to go to the Upper Peninsula this fall. At the same time, he announc- ed the schedule of the state ferries'' across the 'Straits of Mackinac during the hunting season. From November 10 through' November 30, during the deer hunting season, the ferries will operate on a 24 -hour -a -day basis, for the benefit of hunters, until they've all been accommodated.

Similar in appearance to fluorescent lighting, with the added virtues of in- stant starting and extra long life, cold cathode lighting promises to have greatly increased use for interior illumination after the war. Since the tubing can be bent to almost any conceivable shape, "made to order" lighting installations will offer unique decorative possibilities. Various colors and patterns will be available, and the tubes will soon be manufactured in standard 8 -foot lengths, o INFORMATION, P EASE ...The electric busines3 is extremely technical. Knotty problems are continually popping up. When one of our engineers encounters a $64 question that he can't answer, he usually fires it at the Research Department. The variety of sub- jects investigated is startling. For example: "What will be the trend of the water level of the Detroit River in the near future?" Water level has an impor- tant bearing on the design of power plants. And almost equally vital: "In the oven of an electric range, how strong should the racks be to support the weight of a Thanksgiving turkey without sagging?" CHINESE RECIPE ... Perhaps this recipe is no more Chinese than chop suey, but our Home Service Department recommends it highly: Chinese Omelet 1/2 cup uncooked rice 3 eggs, separated 4 tbsp. butter 1/4 tsp. paprika 4 tbsp. all-purpose enriched 11/4 tsp. salt flour 1/s tsp. dry mustard 2 cups milk 4 tbsp. grated cheese Cook rice till tender. Rinse with hot and cold water. Make sauce of butter, flour and milk. Cook until thickened. Beat egg yolks. Add rice, sauce, seasonings and cheese. Fold in stiffly beaten egg whites. Pour into greased shallow pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Serves six.

But when it comes to minimizing waste, the Edison company takes a back seat to no one. We are constantly seeking ways to re -use discarded equipment and material. Better methods of joining odd lengths of wire, ways of re -using salvaged pipe insulation, more rapid means of cleaning old electrical insulators ... all are typical of our constant search to effect economies. These savings—and thousands of others like them—have much to do with the steady downward trend in the cost of electricity. - `,/M _�5e&od edioft Co..
