Firemen Help Flooded Homes Residents in the neighborhood of Cardwell and Orangelawn and Arcola avenues found themselves in_ dire straights after the heavy rainfall of the week of May 14th. Matters had .reached a disaster stage on the afternoon of Thurs- day when residents found water in their basements had risen to the fire doors of their furnaces and many mothers with small children had no heat nor means of relieving their situation. Thursday afternoon the Livo- nia Fire Department was asked to try and rid some of the water from the most serious places and the men willingl -ave their time and effort all afternoon and eve- ninig "until around 2:30 a.m. Fri- day morning. Many of the neigh- bors were very kind in supplying hot coffee, toast and cookies to the men in an endeavor to show their appreciation. It is 'hoped that the situation in this area can be remedied in the future so that it will not be neces- sary to take the fire truck •out of service to do this kind of work as it creates a fire hazard to the "rest of the township when this is -done. Mrs. Vargha Was Speaker Members of the Rosedale Gar- dens, the Plymouth, and the Northville branches of the Wom- en's National Farm and Garden association held their annual Spring luncheon Monday, May 14 in the dining room of the First Presbyterian ,church of Plymouth with 150 women present.

SOMEONE BROKE "E STREET LIGHT, s Bitter experience—reckoned in smashed cars and bleeding, broken bodies—proves that the less street light there is in a community, the more accidents. And hero's the point: Few streets in America have enough light at night. That makes every street lamp specially important.

All parents having children who will be enrolling in the schools next September are urged to have them examined by . their family physician as early as possible ?his summer. They should be examin- ed as soon as convenient, in order to have any defects found corrert,- ed before entering school. In addition to the physical ex- amination, children who have not been immunized against diph- theria and smallpox should be given this protection and those who have been given toxoid for diphtheria more than three year;; ago, should be given a `booster'' dose of toxoid to insure continued immunity against diphther7.a If parents will follow this ad- vice they will be givir_g their chil- dren the best opportunity of get- ting the most out of the educa- tional program which the schools provide and at the same time they will be giving the children the !,,tmost protection against some of those diseases which so often prove fatal to children. * BUY WAR BONDS Dry cell batteries aro considered the heart of many pieces of mili- tary equipment.
