General Chairmen for the par- ty, Mr. and Mrs. Lowell "Jacobs asked that any members having donations for door and table priz- es to contact tme. Plans for a school dance were submitted and it was decided to appoint a com- mittee to consider what arrange- ments should be made. An educational film in color depicting the life of a child through elementary and high school was shown which demon- strated the training for life they receive in their Art and Handi- craft courses as well as in the basic course. A brief business meeting fol- lowed the film.

Carson Addresses Rotary Club Rev. Verle J. Carson, minister of the Newburg Methodist Church addressed the Livonia Rotary Club Easter Monday at their weekly meeting held at the Pen Mar. Rev. Carson's talk was in keeping with the Easter season and the theme was, "I am a citi- zen" from Paul. -Rev. Carson went on to point out that as citi- zens, people are not a subject people and that they are able to express individuality as long as this expression does not grow too big. He stated, "We must have social relationship and learn how to live with one another." Livonia Cab Co. Has New Service Clayton Maylee's Livonia Cab Company has a . new service for the residents living in the Joy, Inkster and Middlebelt area.

Wednesday, May 1, 1946 e Livonia Question Box 1. Is is necessary to raise taxes? Yes, because of the inflation of prices: 1—Operation costs have gone up. 2—Building costs have also gone up. There are not enough class rooms and the other choice is to go on half day sessions, which would ruin the educational program in the Township, would lower the standards. The Board of Education wants to give the students in Livonia an equal opportunity. 2. What do we mean by 5 mills? It means a tax of $5.00 per thousand of assessed evalua- tion. If a piece of property is assessed at $1,000, the tax would be $5.00. If the property is assessed at $2,000 the tax would be $10.00. 3. Will transportation be furnished all children? • Yes, transportation will be furnished all children who live beyond the mile ,and one half zone from the school, which is according to the state policy. The state allows on the average cost of transportation throughout the state and this runs ap- proximately $27.00 per pupil. Therefore, the same policy will hold true if a high school is built. One new bus has been de- livered to Livonia and delivery on two more is expected in the summer. In the 1944-45 school year 1169 pupils were transported in three buses to the elementary grade schools. In the 1945-46 school year 1250 students have been transported in four buses. In the 1946-47 school year the Board anticipates carrying 1500 students in seven buses, which includes high school pupils. 4. Won't a raise of 5 mills be just a "drop in the bucket" without Federal aid? Yes, that is true. However, if an additional 5 mills is voted by the voters of Livonia the school district can go ahead and build the first unit of 14 rooms. The "Building and Site Sinking Fund" (earmarked for buildings) now has $33,374 in this fund, which has been invested in Government bonds. 5. What does Federal Aid mean? The Federal Government grants money to organizations and individuals for a specific purpose and in the case of schools can be used for operation, building and improvements. These questions were submitted by the. Livonia Town- ship Woman's Club. The Board of Education answered these questions and stated that they would be glad to discuss questions pertaining to the school situation with any civic groups or organizations that would contact them.

Miss Turpinon, who recently lost her father, is to be married to William Vader, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. Vader of St. Francis Saturday, April 19th. Misfortune struck the young couple when the house contain- ing their furniture caught fire and burned April 17 and was al- most an entire loss. This is the second home within two weeks in the vicinity to have been a to- tal loss by fire. The first one oc- curred on Long Avenue several weeks ago and was caused by an oil explosion. Cause of the Vader home burning is not known as the house was not being lived in at the time. There's money to spend and money to lend, but too little to buy and that's too high.

In this pipe, around a cable made up of three copper wires the size of your thumb, nitrogen gas is compressed at 200 pounds per square inch. Through this cable, night and day, flows 100,000 horsepower. It is the only instance where the total output of one generator is carried in a single high-voltage cable to a center of electrical use miles away. There is nothing else like it in the world. The pipe protects the cable from outside damage. The gas pressure keeps the 120,000 volts from destroying the cable insulation. So rugged and reliable is this transmission system that no alternate stand-by cable facilities are necessary. The loss of power over the seven -and -one -half -mile course is less than one per cent. Construction of this cable was a job of Detroit Edison pioneering. It is known in Q the industry as the "SMD" cable because, particularly, it was an accomplishment that is credited to Samuel M. Dean, chief engineer of the system. It was another Edison FIRST brought about by constant devotion to the task of giving Edison customers dependable electric service at low cost.
