Can Predict Fires
Actuary Declares
Fires like the recent LaSalle
Hotel disaster can and should be
as predictable as storms by the
Weather Bureau, Dick Vernor of
the Western Actuarial Bureau, of
Chicago, told the annual Mich-
igan Fire College at Ann A' ''or.
"Fire prevention cannot be over -
preached or over -practised", he
said. .At least 60 persons die in
fires every other day in this coun-
try." "Some 400,000 fires were re-
ported in American homes last
year. How can you help solve the
housing shortage that way"?
"Lossses from fire the first five
months of this year were greater
than those for the entire year of
1945."

Strawberries for w
Food Lockers
Housewives in and around Ply-
mouth who have food lockers
and are planning to save what
few strawberries they can get
for use next winter, will be
interested in knowing the' proper
way to prepare them for freeze
locker storage.
Emma DuBord home demon-
stration agent of Wayne county,
suggests the use of the Michigan
State College recipe as shown in
Extension Bulletin 208 "Preserva-
tion of Fruits and Vegetables by
Freezing." She advises home-
makers to obtain this bulletin
from the county extension office
as it provides tested recipes for
the freezing of all fruits and
vegetables.
In freezing strawberries, select
only bright red, firm, ripe berries.
Avoid green or over -ripe fruit.
Sort, wash hull and drain thor-
oughly. Handle quickly. For best
_results,'make a 40 per cent syrup
(3 cups of sugar to. 4 cups of
water), bring to a boil, and cool
thoroughly. Fill the containers: to
6n6' -half inch of the top with
berries, add ' syrup, preferably
enough to cover -fruit, and seal
container. A crumpled wad of
waxed paper placed under the
lid of the container just before
closing will help hold the fruit
under the syrup and prevent
-browning on the surface.

Tips On
Soap Saving
It's needless to tell the house-
wife that soap saving is a real
necessity these days. But Miss `
Laura P. Davis, extension spec-
ialist in home management, gives
the homemaker a few tips on
how to make .the soap, go farther
and how, to make the` clothes
cleaner. -
Too much soap in the washing
machine not only is wasteful but-' _
does not do as good a job as the
right amount. It is wasteful to
use soap as a water softener.
There are many softeners on the
market. to day and they are less
expensive than soap.
Water softener, h o w e v e r,;
should be thoroughly dissolved
before the soap is added: It . will,
however, reduce the amount of
soap required, if you give it a
chance to do its job before you
add the soap. Five it _three to
fives. minutes. Always measure the
quantities to be used, .after de-
termining by experimentation the
right amount necessary for the
water you use. A two-inch suds
on the washwater is the most
desirable. Find out how much
soap it takes for that suds—then
measure the amount in the future.
A thorough rinsing of the
clothes will lengthen the life of
the fabric, Miss Davis contneds.
Not onlydo you have that "tat-
tle -tale gray" look in your white'

clothes if not properly rinsed,
but you will weaken the textile
fibres. Hot soft water is ideal
for rinsing. Soft water dissolves
the soap without leaving a scum
or sediment. The first rinse
should be about the same tem-
perature as the suds and of soft-
ened water; but later rinses may
be lukewarm. For a good job,
two or three rinses in clear Water
are needed until the water shows
no trace of soapiness.

tin, asleep on a railroad track,
snored so loud he attracted a po-
liceman who pulled him off as a
train approached.

Farm Safety Week
Week of July 21
Farm safety week in Michigan
—the week of July 21—got its
first impetus when the statewide
committee held its planning con-
ference at Lansing recently. With
16,000 killed last year on farms
in the United States, farm safety
has, become of great importance
to the nation.
The Michigan State college ex-
tension service, realizing its im-
portance, has employed a full-
time farm safety specialist, Fred
Roth, who is associated with the
agricultural engineering depart-
ment of the college.

Fire Department Will Not
Have Demonstration
On July Fourth
Many residents of the town-
ship have asked if the department
will put on a demonstration on
the 4th of July. The answer is no.
It has been a rule that the men
and equipment should be ready
at all times to respond to an
alarm, particularly on a day such
as THE FOURTH, when the pos-
sibility for a fire is much greater
than on other days. If an alarm
should come in when a demon-
stration was in process,: valuable
minutes would be lost in picking
up equipment and making the
run. Consequently, until such
time as the township has addi-
tional equipment and men to "fill
in" while a demonstration is go-
ing on, the department will de-
vote all its efforts to fire fighting.

brides by the thousands will start housekeeping, --
if they can find a house to keep.
In days soon to 'come, light Housekeeping will,
be even lighter with electrical servants ready to
wash and iron, clean and cook at the Hip of a
switch. And some day there will be many new-,
electric aids•-wair conditioners, food freezers, electric
blankets, television sets, and all the wonders of the
era of electric living -which lies ahead.
The electric service `which powers these time
and -labor-saving appliances will continue to be.
inexpensive, friendly, dependable, --'ready around
the clock and calendar,-- just as in the past.
Maybe 1946 brides will take the advantages of
electricity for granted, Just as you do. We hope they;
will, We're glad you Just naturally count on the high;,
efficiency and low cost of electric service. The men'
and women in this company worked hard to make'
electricity cheap and dependable. 'They,'Ilwork evm
harder to keep it that way..
