They reflected all the incumbents on the only ticket running —that of the Citizens* party. Rain and sleet falling intermittently during the day kept many voters at home who probably had intended to appear at the polls. No organized opposition to the incumbent candidates was, of course, another reason for lack of interest.

STATE POLICE SEEK CANINE RECRUITS Encouraged by early results in the use of a police dog for tracking and trailing lost persons and criminals, the Michigan S t a t e Police are now looking for several more German shepherds to give the experimental program a complete test. "Jocko," the first departmentowned dog for this purpose, was given to the State Police l a s t summer and subsequently received 14 weeks of training at t h e St. Louis, Mo., municipal d e - partment canine dog school along with his handler, Tpr. Richard H. Abbott, East Lansing. Although the dog has not yet been responsible for t h e direct capture of an escaping criminal, it has followed scents almost unerringly. Male German shepherds of pure strain and, if possible, re* gistered are being sought as they are regarded as the best allaround type of dog for police purposes. The dogs are to be one to two years of age and not less than 23 inches in height. They will be trained at E a s t Lansing headquarters by Trooper Abbott.

MIRROR "The only answer to unemployment is more jobs," a legislative leader said not too long ago. This observation, which may seem perfectly obvious to some and downright superfluous to others, may in reality contain more truth than fiction. The Michigan economy has been studied, prodded, p o k e d , diagnosed, examined and analyzed by almost anyone w h o could find an excuse to do so. The results of these investigations, in a nutshell, are that Michigan needs more jobs. Recommendations, most of them intricate and detailed, and having to do with industry incentive taxes, needs, advantages and sites, have been made. Now comes a legislative committee to study the studies. It hopes to analyze the analyses and come up with the best of the lot, then translate it into specific legislative action to improve the state's much-maligned economic climate. This, perhaps, is what Michiigan needs most. That is, less talk and a program of action. The latest study, proposed by freshman Rep. Gilbert Bursley, R-Ann Arbor, if it comes up with the needed actiop, could put the state on the road it seeks. Other studies have laid out for all to see what is wrong and what is right in Michigan. It is in the hands of lawmakers to lay out a program of action to correct the wrongs and take advantage of the right in the complicated economic situation. * • • Just how much does the weather influence driving? More specifically, more cars are on the road when the sun is shining and many of them are going faster because of dry pavement. Is it possible, however, that good weather can cause a frame of mind that will lead to violations of the reckless driving variety? Secretary of State James M. Hare thinks people's driving often gets worse as the weather gets better. He says conviction abstracts, which are sent to his office for each offense chargeable under the state's point-system law of determining when to take away a driver's license, shower a decline early this year that would reflect periods of bad weather during the winter. If this indicated "better driving" in bad weather, it contradicted the statistics on t r a f f i c deaths. These usually follow a different pattern: Deaths a r e high during the winter months when there are more hours of darkness. Hare says that as the snow and ice disappear, spring time friskiness infects too many drivers, causing them to take chances they normally wouldn't, and consequently receiving a violation. aim unexplained, however, are the periods of atrocious traffic records and the periods of very safe driving by Michigan motorists which occur without rhyme or reason throughout the year. • • • Colorful fall festivals in Michigan, the well-known county fairs, can get money from the Duly authorized officials of the fair have to contact the director of agriculture requesting that the matching funds be furnished. After preliminary approval is given, the fair organizers must furnish any additional information that the director of agriculture might ask for. Then, the authorized w o r k must be completed as quickly as possible after the final approval is handed down. Only "new constructions, remodeling, maintaining, repairing and/or otherwise making fair buildings more suitable for fair purposes, and/or making race tracks more suitable for racing at said fairs,*1 would be eligible for the state assistance. The money would be paid only after the director of agriculture or his representative has inspected the construction and found it suitable for the matching fund program. Then half of the cost would be turned over not to exceed the $2,500 limitation from the state coffers. Aim of the whole program is to give the county fairs a badly needed shot in the arm.

For many generations kite-flying has been recognized as a sure sign of spring right along with the gusty winds of March* the first robin, roller skating and marble shooting. And, already many of our young residents have abandoned their favorite winter pastimes and have begun rigging and flying their first kites of 1961. But before the season g e t s into full swing, L. Clancy Nanry, head of Detroit Edison's safety department, would like to pass along a few simple rules for keeping the fun in and the danger out of kite-flying. Here they are: 1. Always fly kites in open fields — away from overhead wires and away from streets and roads where traffic is an additional hazard. 2. If you're building your own kite, use a wooden frame. Wood is a non-conductor of electricity. 3. Use "plain11 kite-string; avoid all tinsel wire or cord that has any appearance of begin metallic. Metallic cord can carry electricity to your hand and cause painful injury or fatal shock. 4. If your kite does catch on a pole or tree, leave it tbere. If i too bad to lose it but making a new kite is fun — and climbing for the old one might result in a fall or electric shock. 5. Never fly your kite during an electrical storm. Ben Franklin used a kite in his experiment with electricity, but he was lucky not to have been killed. 6. When you're running to raise your kite or keep it in the air, watch your step, rather than your kite — it may save you a bad bump or tumble. 4<Kite-flying is a great sport for young or old, for beginner or veteran of many springs,** Nanry said, "and it can be safe if you keep in mind these rules."

New Advance in Sight Restoration Conservation Notes Exploratory oil and gas drilling was barred in state parks and recreation areas last week by the Conservation Commission. The restriction, focal point of a policy adopted to safeguard public recreation areas from oil and gas developments on p a r k lands, carries a "safety valve" clause to protect the State's mineral rights. Michigan's new parks permit requirement does not cover all lands within all state parks and recreation areas, Conservation Department officials explain in answer to questions about hunting and other uses which normally fall outside highly developer areas. Daily or annual permits are needed to enter any part of 40 extensively developed parks, but they are required only to enter major use portions of the other 15 parks and recreation a r e a s which come under the requirement. Most of the hunting lands at these 15 units are not located within major use areas. HOW TO MAKE A BUNNY AT HOME Terry toys have long been favorites with children but here is a toy that is fun for the entire family and can be made at home. It is a soft white cuddly bunny made from terry towels that is a hit in any situation. Try making it for a table decoration, a shower gift for the springtime crop of new arrivals or to amuse a child who must stay indoors. The main "makings" of the bunny are soft, white towels. Although the towels should be white as new, it is not necesiary to buy new ones. For grey, dingy harsh towels can be transformed to new whiteness and softness in modern laundering. It is not unusual in many busy households, to find some towels grey with "left-in" soil. Unless towels are laundered thoroughly every time, deep soil and stains become imbedded and they lose their attractive freshness. The answer is to wash them, everytime, with *n all-purpose deterf cnt, pllent ty off hot water and good laundry bleach beads. Fabric safe chlorine bleach in bead form removes deep soil safely and thoroughly. Another step in laundering < 4tcsy ttoowwee ls "the mm odern way is to restore them to "storerf New towel soft out the life of the towels or old harsh ones can be renewed with the simple addition of a 7 f ] of fabric softener to the final clear water rinse.

A man who has always lived fn darkness is given sight and cannot get over the wonder of color. A youngster runs freely after years of groping and hesitating. Miracles? Such cures would have been so defined a decade or two ago. Today, they are more commonplace — but still miracles to those who benefit from them. These cases of sight restored are the result of a delicate operation known as 'corneal transplant.' They are brought about by a truly priceless gift — the donation of sight from those who have died to those who still live. Not all cases of blindness can be cured in this way. But, where conditions are right, the results are 807* successful. The operation is well-known today; many famous and distinguished people are part of its program. But it has faced two major problems in the past. The first involved a misunderstanding. People 'willed' their, eyes. This, in spite of their excellent intentions, was useless. A will is read several days, or weeks, after death. C o r n e a m u s t be transplanted within a few hours. Today doctors and hospitals have r e l e a s e forms available, and those who have signed them make sure that friends and family know of their intention. The second problem was one of skill. This operation is so delicate that few surgeons — even expert ophthalmologists — were qualified to perform it. This led to the tragedy of sight donated, a blind person eagerly awaiting it, but no surgeon available to perform the transfer in the time limit. Obviously, the only solution was to furnish surgeons with a more accurate instrument. In the past few years, a *u p s # u • a e i e t « e m s remove ^ t s t e p m this direction has ^shin^Tdd ffiSSJ^SSH g • ! • « « £ throu^_the_efforts washing, add the softener each time you wash.

He felt that the operation could be performed more quickly, more precisely, and by more surgeons if it employed a motor - driven surgical k n i f e . The 'transfer1 is such a delicate process that it calls for the ultimate in precision. But, when a motor-driven Instrument is used, it becomes an operation that hundreds of surgeons can perform. The motor adds priceless precision. The problem then was to find, or develop, the perfect motor. It had to be small, easy to hold, free of vibration. Further, it must not neat up in the hand, even when used for lengthy periods of time. Working with a surgical instrument firm, the doctor experimented with many motors and found what he wanted in a most surprising place — an electric shaver. Norelco's rotary action, which eliminates vibration and is designed for shaving comfort, proved to give the smoottt performance he was looking for. In order ttrms&e sure that the instrument was easy to hold, he selected a woman's model — the Coquette, because of its easily-held cylindrical shape. In using this new device (created by removing shaving head and inserting a surgical knife), the doctor found another boon: the operation could be performed in less time. A cut of 75% to 80% in operating time is vital to both doctor and patient. Today, the selected cases where corneal transplants work are infinitely more certain of success thanks to three things: more donors, the development of a new instrument, and the discovery of the proper motor — in a lady's shaver.

Last Thursda y evening the thre e day tournamen t for the seventh and eighth grade boys was complete d with the Rowell Basketeers winnin g the tourney . Five team s participated . Eac h team played at least two games, and I thin k the boys had a lot of fun besides learnin g some fundamental s of basketball. I wish to than k the coache s of the teams , (Terr y Rowell, Karl Burg, Jack Young, Mr . Hoeft , Mr. Dunn ) the boys who helped officiate, (Bill Winger, Denni s Clark , Do n Barker) the Pinck - ney High Schoo l Studen t Coun - cil, and man y other s who helped to make the tourne y a success. Without the help of man y civic minde d individual s such endeavors would not be possible. After the tournamen t was over a meetin g was held with the idea of organizin g a Basketball Little League for the next season. Thre e churche s had representative s at this meeting. All presen t at the meetin g though t that such a league would be desirable as a good form of winter recreatio n for the boys. They agreed to meet at a later date , a'fter they had gone back to their organization s and reserved the approva l of the group. It was though t that formal organizatio n and plans for such a league could be drawn up at this time . This meetin g will take place on Thursday , April 7th at 7 P.M . in the High School .

Courageous , we say, because having no facilities with which to run a measured distanc e for pacin g of speed, being unabl e to have any 'home * meet s where students , parent s and those intereste d in one of the "noblest of sports'* can see the local boys partici - pate , the team deserves muc h credit . The lack of regulation trac k and field and knowing that they can not perform before their own students has not dampened the spirits of some twenty boys working with John F. Burg, track coach. The cost of track is nominal when compared to some of the sports as football. Pinckney's track teams effort has not been in vain, because the boys have given a good account of themselves despite handicaps. Two years ago Paul Russell, a 220 yard dash man qualified for the State Meet, and more recently Gordon Hoyt holds the record in the mile nm in the Washtenaw Conference.

We are working on our Sprink Booklets. Our books are very nice. We wish to thank the school board for the new science table. We have many exhibits to put SEVENTH GRADE Mrs. Erhard In science we are outlining a chapter about health. We found out that outlining is more fun than work sheets. We are finishing percents and are about to start graphs and charts. the table. Right now we have a rock collection. FIFTH GRADE Mrs. Miller We wish to welcome Tom Bennett to our grade. We have completed our first countries project. All but 5 of us. Units on our states are going to be reported on all next week. By RUSS ENGELHARDT, Managm WHAT'S "ALL NUMBER CALLING"? It's the latest development in telephone numbering. Now, in many communities throughout the country, you dial seven numerals to make a local call—no letters. For example, KL 5-2368 becomes 555-2368—a true telephone "number." Why was this done? Simply because we're running out of usable letter-number combinations. If we're to continue to grow and provide good service, we need to use the more flexible **all numerals" system. Some Michigan communities already have i t More will begin to use it soon. You'll find this new system more accurate and we think you'll like it. MICHIGAN'S NATURALLY the motor center of the world.

They supplement the regular roadside telephone booths that are already ft f amOkr sight along many of our A ftJim, IKHia yet stronger spring telephone cord has been devdoped by Bell Telephone Laboratories and Wfe$tern Electric. One secret of its new, deck strength is the use of nylon, instead of cotton, thread. Slimming a cord seems like a small change—until you xeaHae that it wui save more than half a million dollars annually in cord costs! It's another instance of your .telephone company's constant search foe new ways to unpcove tbe equipment you use, while keeping the cost of your service low. We are making charts on them also. We have another 3 people not done, Our aluminum foil projects were very successful. There were many original articles completed. We have, a March Means Spring theme on the Bulletin Board. Our arithmetic workbooks are almost completed. Now we're ready for tests. We wish to congratulate Marjorie Quesenberry — she is the Girl Squad of the Month. We are very proud of her.

Ernest Chanyi brought a "Make It" book to school. We found several ways to make Easter baskets in it. We wish to thank the Parents Club for the toys and other things they bought for our room. We are enjoying using them very much. We learned the song "Peter Cottontail" this week. We have new pictures of baby animals on our bulletin board. Danny Murphy has a new baby brother. We think spring is almost here, because we have seen robins, bees, butterflies, and flies already. rHIRD GRADE We had fun painting l a r g e Easter eggs last week. We a r - ranged them in a colorful bord- ;r on the bulletin board. In science we finished a unit on sounds. We had fun with the tin can telephone.

A few people able to c o m - plete them correctly in the time already. When we can complete them in the time allowed correctly we are excused f r o m taking the daily tetf.

The proposals would include adjusting the 1961 acreages of corn and other feed grains. To put such a program into operation for 1961 crops in a manner which would be fair to all growers, accurate data must be obtained immediately for the possible establishment of f e e d farms in the major feed gain grain base acreages for all farms in the major grain producing area. Such information will include the acreage history of corn, grain sorghum, barley, and oats, as well as the acreage devoted to the other crops and land uses, for all farms in the area where one or more of these feed grains were produced withing the past 2 years. Mr. Bontekoe explained that it is the intention, as far as posfor some worker from the County Office to interview each farm operator or owner in Livingston County whose farm has produced feed grains either in 1959 or 1960. 1893—1961 Over 68 Years of Banking Service PHONE HA 6-2831 Member F.D.I.C.

MICHIGAN WEEK SLOGAN BECOMES STIRRING MARCH Recordings and musical scores of a new march and song about the State of Michigan are being distributed to .high schools and radio stations in the state as a part ol the!961 Michigan Week cultural activities. University of Michigan President Harlan Hatcher, chairman of the Michigan Week cultural activities committee, said the march and song had been composed by two U-M faculty members. Florian F. Mueller, associate professor of oboe and wind instruments in the U-M School of Music, composed "Michigan Marching Forward" at the request of Michigan's Governor, John B. Swainson. The march is named after the slogan, sugr gested by the governor, f o r this year's Michigan Week, scheduled to be observed from May 21 to 27. The song, "My Michigan," was composed by Orien E. Dalley, music consultant for WUOM, the U-M radio station.

PH. 330 L n MICHIGAN MIRROR There's much in the news lately about legislation to bolster Michigan's position in the strugle to create jobs through industrial development. There are only two ways to bring this about: hold and expand existing payrolls; bring in new factories in competition with other areas. Work and play important roles in this effort. Most professionals in the plant location field would probably agree that the search for new locations matches community against comunity rather than state against state. This means that, in addition to the valuable financing plans a state m i g h t offer, the community itself is mightly important. When a business is to be located, the executives usually contact (or are contacted by) the State Economic Development Department, many community leaders and utility representatives. Often then consult "plant locating" consultants. The resulting deliberations are often hectic and much less logical than one would, "think to be the case wbeft all these interested people a r e working. A $35 million installation in Montague illustrates the point, Hooker Electro-Chemical w a s trying hard to fine a suitable location on the shores of Lake Michigan. Everybody seemed to be in the act, but nothing was decided. A local plumber wrote Hooker a letter stating emphatically that he knew there were many subterranean salt deposits nearby and wondered why t h e plant didn't locate there. Company officials checked, found the letter correct and the factory was built. A mistake discovered by a member of the Economic Development Department is credited with saving another industry for Michigan. A consulting service recommended an Indiana location over one in Kalamazoo, the deciding factor being a wage and tax differential. The economic development staff man felt re the consultant's figures were rong. To prove it he worked several ys at the MSU library collectg and sifting information. Then he found the mistake! Some hurried phone calls set up appointments in Chicago where t h e figures could be disproven. As a result the plant now operates in Kalamazoo. In another instance one of the utilities men carted a prospect all over Southwest Michigan and showed him some of the finest towns in the area. Trouble, was, every place he stopped it rainedor snowed. Finally, after a few days of dismal outlook, the utilities man surrendered his guest into the hands of a competitor from another utility. That day dawned bright and fair as Nature put her foot forward. The competitor signed, sealed and delivered the prospect and his plant to the first town where the y stopped. You're never going to convince that first professional that there isn't any luck to this SNEDICOR'S CLEANERS IN PINCKNEY WEDNESDAY W SATURDAY 220 So. Michigan Av#.

Reickhoff, Sr. OPTOMETRIST 120 Weet Graed tfcer 6X3 Lee Lavey upovmt Child Protection Warnings Issued by State Police Because warmer weather rlways brings an increase in child molestation cases, Sgt. Adolph Ploehn, of the Brighton S t a t e Police Post, has issued a timely reminder to parents to warn their children now against talking, walking, or going anywhere with strangers. "The best rule for children is to avoid strangers completely," Sergeant Ploehn emphasized. "Caution them often to beware of strangers while outdoors at play, or on the way to or from school. Tell them to report any strangers who rqake offers or promises of candy or gifts for going for a walk or a ride with them." Child molestation cases investigated by the State Police last year totaled 58lj an increase of 15, or 2.6 per cent, compared to 1959. The offenses reach a peak in the summer. The high month Jor J 9 6 0 was August with 84 while Jttfy wa^ second w ith $0 and June third with 67. The peak month in 1959 also w a s August with 76, June was next with 73 and July third with 61. The cases usually increase beginning in April and taper off in September and October. Of last year's 581 cases, 431 occurred in the April-October period. The danger is prevalent to some degree the year around and in I960 no month had less than 23 cases. To help eradicate the menace, parents should notify police immediately of all incidents, no matter how minor they m a y seem, reported by their children. The failure or reluctance of parents to do so makes it difficult for police to cope with the problem and gives the child molester the chance to strike again. No publicity is given to the names of the children or the parents except in the case of murder. Parents should impress upon | children that policemen are their friends who want to help and protect them. Youngsters must bet encouraged to report to police or their parents any strangers seen loiterng suspiciously around playgrounds, neighborhoods,, or schools, and at public rest rooms. \ These are important rules suggested for children to follow: 1. Don't stop to talk, or go for a walk or a ride with any stranger. If he offers you money, gifts or candy, don't accept them. If he offers you a job to earn money, tell your parj ents first so they can investigate. 2. Always try to be with one or more playmates during play hours at school or near home oi on vacation. Don't play or walk alone in alleys, deserted buildings, or other secluded places. 3. Know the persons you ait with. Don't let strangers try to join you during play hours and report any suspicious persons to your parents, teachers or police. 4. Don't loiter in 'public rest rooms. There are danger spots. 5. Never go alone to the movies. Go with a pal or a friend. If a stranger bothers you there, report this at once to the theater manager. 6. Do not play or walk too close to the road. Keep a safe distance away so that strangers in passing cars cannot easily reach out and grab you. 7. These rules are for your protection so always obey them. Don't let your friends or a n y stranger get you to disobey them, ff-you have any^ Question or problem about them, tell your parents. Here are ways children car help in attempts or cases of child molestation: 1. Write down or memorize the stranger's description, h i s approximate height, weight, age, color of skin, eyes and hair. Remember things like a mustache, eyeglasses, kind of clones, tattoos, jewelry, physical defects or anything else unusual. 2. If the stranger has a car, try to get the license numbers and letters, coloring, year a n d state. Put it down on paper or use chalk, a stone or a stick to mark it on a sidewalk, a wall or in sand or dirt. 3. Remember your suspicions can help protect you and your friends from harm. Any stranger reported by you and investigated by the police will not be offended if he has a legitimate reason for his activity.

STATE POLICE REPORT ON BAD CHECKS Bogus scheck passing in Michigan is a million dollar a month operation which so far this year gives little indication of falling away from the high levels of activity reached ia 1959 and 1960, according to Det. Sgt. F. E. Kelly of the fTa«duknt-check section at East Lansing S t a t e Police headquarters. In the first two and a h a 1 f months this year, 356 bogus checks were submitted to the section for examination, j u s t three less than in the same period in 1960. Only about one per cent of the bad checks passed in Michigan are submitted to t h e State Police, the remainder are handled locally. Last year 1,657 checks, averaging $77.26 and having a total value of $128,010.74, were processed by the State Police. The peak year in volume since the section was established in 1948 was in 1959 with 1,698 averaging $74.36 and totalling $126,- 263.33. Known passers or previous forgery or fraud specimens are identified in about 60 per cent' of the cases studied by the State Police. High months for check fraud are usually January. July and August while April is generally the lowest. An analysis of the record indicates that when the economy flourishes, so does bad check activity. According to Kelly, the apparent explanation is that business people are l e s s cautious then or feel that the higher volume of business can more easily sustain any fraud RE-ELECT Smith of Grand Rapids, L e i a Barnes, of Williamston, M r s .

Who suffers in this fraudulent activity? Kelly observes that the merchant or firm cashing a bad check must make good the loss originally but eventually it's the public that pays through increased business operating costs. , Kelly's advice h this: Treat every eheefc; wklt t-h-esame caution you would use in making ^ unsecured loan to a strang' To , nt opportunity for theft which can lead to forgery and fraud, check supplies and bank statements should be securely locked up when not in use.

The safe containing the money in the La Rosa business place was broken open. It was the "beginning of the end" of their career early Friday morning when the sheriffs department received a call from the Blue Water Store at Lakeland that their burglar alarm had sounded frightening away wouldbe- burglars. The proprietor spotted a car driving away and gave a description. An hour later a car answering that description was found parked in the village square here. Deputy Robert Egeter investigated and stood by waiting for the owners to return to the car. It is beleived they were at that moment inside the local service station attempting to remove the lock from the safe door. They fled leaving a large tool in the lock. Sheriff Lawrence Gerhinger arrived and found more than $600 in cash in the glove compartment of the car. This was beleived to be the money taken from the Brighton Bowl and Bar shortly before the report was received from the Lakeland store. To date the pair have admitted many burglaries in both Living- Jton_and Washtenaw counties. Sheriff LOCAL BOY STATIONED ON OKINAWA Jack D. Lee, 19, son of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard E.

Adams State Attorney General If you are having trouble paying your bills due to inflation, layoffs or any other reason, be sure that anyone to whom you pay money for debt pooling will get you out of debt and n o t deeper into debt. Ads which offer to help you retain peace of mind, get your creditors off your back, avoid garnishments, get out of debt without a loan, protect your job and your credit, all by turning over $15 or $25 per week to a debt pooler, sound good but the results can be most sad. My office has received complaints recently from persons who have conscientiously p a i d debt poolers the agreed upon sum for months only to find as many creditors as ever. In some cases the people have not been able to obtain any accounting of what happened to the money they paid to apply on past due debts. DONALD McAINSH Donald J. McAinsh, a former area farmer, died suddenly at his home in Inkster on Thursday, March 30. He had lived here for about 15 yean before moving to Detroit and Inkster. Survivors include a son, Eugene of Pinckney; three daugh* ters, Mrs. Edward Trombley, Mrs. Donald Davis and Evelyn McAinsh, att of Detroit There are 14 grandchildren. Funeral services were held on Monday at the Querfiekt Funeral Home in Dearborn. Burial was m Pmckney cemetery. As a free American citizen, you have a right to hire a budget manager or a debt adjuster. But you should know that if the person you hire does not satisfactorily adjust your debts and carry out the glowing promises so often made, there is very little the law can do to help you out of your troubles. Legislation is in the works to deal with this problem. Meanwhile, beware of debt poolers! Some are excellent, others a r e not! Be sure you know which is which before handing over your money to a stranger.

The dress quickly ignited and her father also suffered severe burns attempting to extinguish the flames. She is in U of M hospital, Ann Arbor.

TIME TO INVENTORY CLOTHES IN CLOSET Spring cleaning can extend to your clothes closet, with an eye to analyzing your warbrobe and to planned future shopping trips. Eleanor Mullikin, clothing instructor at Michigan State University, suggests you divide clothing into .groups of coats, suits, dresses, separates, leisure wear, underclothing and accessories. You may be surprised at the large quantity of items in certain groups and the lack of items in others. Mrs. Mullikin says this is the time to evaluate each garment. If you don't wear it, can it be repaired, given a life with new accessories, or remodeled to make it usable? Maybe a shorter skirt length is all a dress needs to make it a "1961" style. If there is no hope for some garment in your wardrobe, don't let it clutter the closet. Check any garment which is not worn simply because there is no place to wear it If the purchase was an "impulse item" — make a mental note to avoid the same mistake again.

In 1960 only 97 of the House bills finally made it, and the Senate did about as well, proportionately with 70. This works out on a percentage basis of about 17% for the House and 29% for the Senate. Few experienced Legislators expect that the record will be as high this session. , While it may seem like a waste of time, and the taxpayer's money, to go through all |of this _ for so few laws, it really is a necessary part of the legislative process. Bills (that never become law, do oftentimes influence action by the legislature, it is one way >f finding out what the folks [back home think about a lot of [state problems. There is always some degree of political influence in ithe introduction of legislative (bills. Many of the measures ire acorded introduction, but iven their sponsors have no thought that they will become law. All of these measures must be dealt with in committee, and as soon as the committees begin to digest this mass that was handed them last week. things will beein to happen on the floor again.

The light suddenly dawned last week when 1 found Mike busily waxing his bike out in the garage. He had given the family car a beautiful wash and polish job the week before, without even being asked! When I commented about the care in mock astonishment Mike very quietly gave me a long, earnest lecture on the need for taking good care of good, expensive equipment. His words were almost an echo of his Dad's lessons in gun care that came along with Mike's 22 rifle! Obviously, those lessons rubbed off in some other areas of Mike's activities.

SMU&9 CLEAN-UP BUILT-IN PHONE WIRING OFFERED BY MICH. BELL Michigan Bell Telephone Company announced it has installed "built-in" telephone wiring in more than 9,008 Michigan living units since last Aug. 1 when the service was first offered to builders and individuals free of charge. Kenneth J. Boekeloo, general commercial manager, estimated that 60 per cent of the houses and apartment buildings b e t built have concealed tefcpheae wiring. He said more builders are expected to take advantage of the free wiring service in their, 1961 plans. The wiring is installed in walls of each room of houses a n d apartment buildings, except the bathroom, after electrical wiring is completed and before insulation, lath and plaster, or dry wall is placed. "Advance wiring ties into the modern living theme with built-in convenience features," Boekeloo said, ' i t also assures h o m e buyers of sufficient wiring for future telephone needs, w h i c h may include extensions, a second phone line, or the installation of Home Interphone — a new home intercommunications s y s - ter combining telephone and speaker-microphone units." Customers pay only the regular service installation, charge when they order a telephone.

If this seems to be a somewhat leas than crucial problem in times of world crises, federal ! upheaval, it should be pointed I out that Michigan is one of only nine states which at last count did not provide a place for the chief executive to live. For at least 80 years, governors, former governors and plain citizens have been sayipg the states needs an executive mansion. But some governors were LUMBER- COAL -FUEL ON. PROMPT KUVBtY 4POOI AMCUUY I.E.IIET mom MA Milt different to whether the state provided a home for them. At least part of the reason for this is that until this century was well past its majority, few governors spent any considerable amount of time in Lansing, except when the Legislature was in session. White the Legislature h a s been less than anxious to provide | funds for a permanent residence in Lansing, lawmakers did, in 11935 provide the state's chief executive with a summer home on Mackinac Island. At the same session, incidentally, they refusjed to support a resolution calling | for a Lansing governor's residence. Plans for one were included in a Federal Works Program for the state that year, but they didn't work out. From 1935 on, agitation for a governor's residence grew, and the Legislature produced starts on the project several times. Something always got in the way. At one time, plans were afoot to renovate the old Barnes mansion in Lansing "When is a shopping center like a bank?" That's any: When it offers so many varied services all in one placet Convenience is, of course, one of the most attractive features of a first* rate shopping center.

Strong objections to its "ugliness" were raised, and the cost of renovation proved prohibitive. Now comes Sen. John W. Fitzgerald, the son of a former governor, with a plan to do something for a constituent. Fitzgerald, a Grand L e d g e Republican, introduced a bill to provide $10,000 for rental and operating costs to provide a home for Michigan governors. Gov. John B. Swainson, a Democrat, is living in a house which he rents himself just outside Lansing — in Fitzgerald's district. Perhaps nobody but Fitzgerald in the Legislature has had the first hand experience with t h e problems of governors involving housing. His father, the l a t e Frank D. Fitzgerald, lived at home in Grand Ledge during his tenure as governor. While many still say the State should provide its governors with a home, owned and operated by the State of Michigan, F i t zgerald would at least take the burden of paying for a residence, which must be used for personal, official and semi-official functions, off the back of the chief executive. Sometimes a headache for the homeowner who has been hoodwinked on trees or shrubs is also a pain in the neck to the state plrtmenf lof " l ^ i k; ull tu t; _.-.- Spring brings out the sellers of plants, trees, shrubs, bushes and other nursery stock in droves. The householders are not far behind. Virtually all the sellers of things to grow are reputable. Most deal only in inspected stock, and certainly any established businessman could not afford to sell something unwholesome or improper. Plant pests and diseases are carried on some products. Department of Agriculture inspections go far toward keeping such things in check. As in most other things, however, the old legal slogan..of 'Let the Buyer Beware" applies to plants and nursery stock. State agriculturists have warned people to look out for plants RANK // , / which are unhealthy looking; which are not in proper shape to be planted, or which are dead or dying. They say bulbs, corms or tubers should be plump and fairly firm as well. Resolutions now before t h e Legislature would provide rolling and floating advertisements for Michigan. Sen. John H. Stahlin, R-Reading, wants to authorize a railroad train to be paid for by contributions which would tour the East and Midwest selling Michigan's advantages. Sen. Harold M. Ryan, D-Detroit, wants to spend $50,000 of state funds to outfit the former Mackinac Straits ferry "Vacationland" as a touring promotional gimmick for the state. Stahlin's plan presumably would be a one-shot deal, aimed at correcting Michigan's bad national image. Ryan, on the other hand, had indicated the Vacationland, renamed the "New Michigan," could continue to sail on and on, visiting the ports of the Great Lakes, the St. Lawrence Seaway, the East Coast, and possibly even the West Coast and Europe. Whether the Vacationland, which reverted to state ownership after an ill-fated venture as a package carrief between Detroit and Cleveland, would be -seaworthy for at present unknown.

Only a lifetime of continuing self-education through reading, after formal education is c o m - pleted, can keep Americans in watchful readiness to exercise responsible leadership. Only a wide variety of reading can keep us abreast of what has been, and what is, and train the imagination to forge ahead into what might be in the future.1' The purpose of the Week is to encourage lifetime reading habits and the use and support of libraries of all kinds by everyone. The goal is a "better-read, better informed America." The Week is not an end in itself; it is a focal point of a long-range, year round effort through c o n - tinuing activities of many groups. Keyed to the theme, "For a richer, fuller life-Read!", the observance in 1961 will seek to expand activity in every phase of the program and continue its emphasis on young adult reading habits.

If ladies tipped their hats, the entire female population of the United States would owe a doff to one of Michigan's esteemed Supreme Court Justices. Justice Talbot Smith, in a new book called Lawyer, says women are "really good at" at practice of law. Smith, a member of the high court since 1955, says that woolen face an uphill battle for recognition as attorneys, but that he has personally never seen an incompetent or overly emotional lady lawyer. He also says that state service is one of the best positions for women making a career of the legal profession.

This should not surprise inyone who knew Kathy as a student, because her main interest in extracurricular activities was centered in the Future Teachers1 Club, sponsored by Mrs. Irene E. Miller. Then, too, Kathy has always shown a determination to reach her goal, no matter how hard obstacles to that goal appeared. Kathy plans to teach the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades; we are s u r e 'hat she will make a successful eacher. Kathy reports that she enjoyed all of her teachers in h i g h school; those that stand out especially in her memory, h o w - ever, are Mrs. Dorothy Hmay and Mr. Ray Moriartey. The subjects she liked the best were English, Math, and Science. Her hobby has always been reading; this hobby sometimes had a evening, leaving Kathy to do her homework in the wee hours S atiTtiT students is to study hard, and co * oue their education after high school, if it is at all possible. Kathy says that everyone should work especially hard on English, since English is the basis of every other subject and of all our communications.

If any minds were changed about them, it was not apparent around the Capitol. The Governor said his order still stood. House Republicans were talking about appropriating money to show the films in Michigan schools. State Police Commissioner Joseph Childs was saying nothing. The crowd was orderly, Speaker Don R. Pears warned that any demonstration would stop the showing immediately, before the projector started to roll. A contingent of plain clothes State Police Officers, brought in to maintain order, had little to do except to roam around the gallery. It was estimated that at least 50 members of the legislature saw the films, and about 500 others viewed them. ~PINCKNEY~DISPATCH~ Wednesday.

How can we tell? Because we're a lot busier here al the telephone company handling your calls. For example, 10 years ago our Michigan customers made 9,762,000 calls during the average day. In 1960, we were handling 14,881,000 calls on the average day in Michigan—a 52% increase! Much of this results from new customers, of course. But quite a bit comes from the fact that you're picking up your phone more often because you can call more people, and more people can call you. It makes us happy to know your telephone is working harder for you—saving steps, making life easier and more pleasant. IT'S HERE - Michigan Bell's Spring Phone Fair. It features a variety-of telephone services including the Home Interphone, which lets you use your phone as a communications system right in your home.

The juniors, under Mrs. Wilhelmina Swarthout's direction, are working hard to transform the gym into a Hawaiian scene with Koma Hai (welcome) accenting the decor. Music from 8:30-11:30 will be furnished by Jim Kanley's sixpiece orchestra, we hope to have photographers there to take pictures, and for the fourth successive year Mr. Lawrence Camburn has offered the facilities of smorgasbord to follow the JHop. We are not sure just how many years it takes to establish a tradition, but do feel certain that the three successful smorgasbords of 1958-59-60 pretty well pave the way for the luau (feast) of 1961. The largest group of parents that we have ever had turn out for the organizational meeting, and many, who were unable to attend, called in to offer help House for a parent-sponsored between Silver Hill road and Kelly road. Excessive speed has endangered lives and property in this particular area with accidents occurring rather frequently. Local residents, led by Mel Re in hard, director of the Recreation center there, appealed to Commissioner Childs for a speed limit. Road signs will soon be installed and the speed limit will be strictly enforced.

Losers want to explain why they lost. Winners are even more anxious to tell why they won. The 1961 Biennial Spring Election was no exception and may provide more fruitful ground for both winners and losers than most At least one reason for this is the fact that the Constitutional Convention issue was on the ballot. In a lot of ways, the spring election "followed the rules** by the book. None of the incumbents seeking re-election was ousted. Democratic party candidates pulled their heaviest vote in the densely populated areas, especially around Wayne county. Republicans s h o w ed more strength outstate. But consider this: While it was still enough to outweigh the vote in the rest of the state, the vote in Wayne county and surrounding areas was down ,overall, from the record number of ballots cast two V4»j»re zon, Detroit, especially, jawjhe number of people going | er. They are more active, they {turn out a bigger vote and they are better able to count on a certain number of voters coming out in t given area. In mott past elections, a huge turnout in the metropolitan areas with Detroit leading the way was the obvious factor when the Democrats came out on top. This time, Democrats were able to show strongly without the great mass of party-line voters in Detroit. The lesson seems obvious: Party organizations, which more often than not can mean success or failure in an election, are just as effective — an necessary — out in the boondocks as they are in the asphalt jungle. Books could be borrowed from any library in the state using just one library card under a program ready for testing. Gov. John B. Swainson directed Harvey Sherwood, Kalamazoon, chairman of the State Board for Libraries, to try out the plan in selected areas before implementing a program to issue only state-wide cards. The Governor said about 14 per cent of Michigan's population has no access to library services because of residence outside the city, township or village isii within which lihmr ! - • — - * - • Democrats, who won seven of the nine partisan offices contested, relied heavily on the metropolitan vote, of course. But significantly, the margin by which Republicans won outstate was down in many areas. This was not true all over, naturally. It cannot be attributed to any one factor in most cases, either. One fact stood out in the spring election as never before, however. Democratic organizations all over the state are getting strong- IfTHI l IAPTIST CMOtC H 404 0 Swrt»»M» * M 4 HOWIll , MICHIOA N ftttort M.

Making a mental hospital out of the Howell sanatorium points up the troubles in taking care of increasing numbers of mentally ill. emotionally disturbed and mentally retarded persons. . _ t The plan for Howell is to use IO.O O a.m J , r , . . ihoo a.m}it for non-dangerous patients such as senile persons and similar cases. These patients will be brought from other institutions, such as Kalamazoo, Ionia, Traverse City and Newberry. In fact, plans call for a sort of general shuffling to put patients in an institution where they can get sufficient care and still be properly supervised. The idea is to make room in the Ionia State Hospital for the Criminally Insane for a number of dangerous psychotics now housed at Southern Michigan Prison. It has required close cooperation among the three state departments involved, the Health, Mental Health and Corrections departments, to make the shift work smoothly. 10:4 5 a.m 9:3 0 a.m 0:454 a.m n.-oo6 7 p.m, 9:4 5 a.m 11:0 0 a.m 6:4 5 p.m Sunday Masse s Waakda y Maa s №00 . 11:3 0 •tO O m honor of Moma r of ferpttual Help on Thvrtde * • f 7t3 0 pm, ConlaMioni ; Satufak y 4 J 0 to 5 J 0 and 7x30 to *M ST. i .

Without Senate approval, he cannot take office. He replaced Lawrence J. GotschaH, of Baldwin, who has sought reappointment. Many around the Capitol feel that the appointment was made in payment of a political debt, among Conservation Department personnel it was feared that if his appointment should be confirmea that it would mean some violent shake-ups in the department. Scholle has opposed many of the department policies. Because of his violent statements against all Republicans, it seemed unlikely t h at enoueh of them would join the 12 Democrats in the Senate to give approval. There is some speculation that the Governor made the appointment with tongue-in-cheek.

Mclntyre having rented his farm to his son Clyde will Why has the number of electrically heated homes in the United States tripled in the past three years? Why will even more families choose them in the future? Because built-in electric hemt gives each room its own heating system-with individual control. Because it lets you keep every room at the exact temperature you want. Because electric heat saves space, and is as dean and safe as electric light But most oi aD because electric heat is so comfortable. Whether the heating units are in ceilings, walls, baseboards or floors, you enjoy even heat from head to feet Premium features bice these make electric heat worth the extra cost And that cost can be leveled out over the year on Edison's Budget Billing Plan. This most modern of all heating systems is available in All-Electric Homes—the homes that will still be modern when your children grow up. Every All-Electric Home offers . . . • Total electric kitchen with built-in electric oven and range. • Fiameless electric water heater—the silent, troubfefree heater that supplies lots of hot water over a long life. • At least two other big work-saving appliances such as-fbod waste disposer, dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer. washer, dryer. • light far Living, with path-of-Hgbt twitching and fixtures picked comfort, good looks and safety. • Certified Wiring with plenty of drafts tion of today's work-savers, plus extra capacity for tomorrow's.

Our library has practical information on all of these and we think you can easily find the book you wish.

Helpers for this week a r e Carlene McCarthy, fifth grade SHOP ADS TO SAVE ON FOOD Shopping newspaper ads for food bargains is one method to reduce family food costs recommended by a dietitian at The University of Michigan Medical Center. Miss Delores Highgate of the U-M Nutrition Clinic says "Income, family size and food preferences help determine how much a family should spend for food. Nevertheless, there are several money-saving principles which everyone can heed." Before you go to the store, says Miss Highgate, plan your menus and make up a marking list, taking into consideration the "specials" offered in the newspaper. Then shop in person, she recommends, so you can further compare the prices and quality of food. Compare the brands, labels and weight of foods to the price. To make a sizeable dent in food costs, the U-M specialist suggests you switch to such less expensive foods as milk and cheese, dried beans and peas, whole grains and enriched products. Also look for fish, liver and other variety meats, b u t avoid those with gristle, fat and bone. How you prepare food in the and Ronald Doyle, sixth grade. We have formed a new girl service club for the fifth grade girls. PARENTS CLUB The Parents Club meeting for April, postponed last week, will be held at 7:30 at the elementary school Thursday evening, April 27. Election of officers for 1961- 62 will be held. A coffee-hour and program are scheduled for the remainder of the evening. PINCKNEY DISPATCH Wednesday, April 26, 1961 a fbotf §$ says. "Be sure to use accurate measurements and follow reliable recipes. There are basic guides in getting the most out of your food dollar. "In addition, you can use the water left over from cooking vegetables, to have the vitamins which might otherwise be lost— and use that .water in sauces and gravies. "Wise food management," she says, "is a complex task whether you are running a restaurant or just planning a family dinner. The goal is to produce meals that taste and look good, a r e properly nutritious for individual needs, and whlcrTlir~the family budget."

But many consumers sing a blue note, when they find themselves enmeshed in the toils of a series of purchases, all on the installment plan, and all enlarged far beyond the original purchase price by some charge made for credit My studies of consumer problems suggest that one of the most serious areas is that of the undisclosed or misrepresented charge made for credit, as part of a sales transaction involving consumer goods. one month salary 25.00 Mrs. Van Skiver - cleaning town hall 5.00 Do you know how much credit costs you? Do you know the difference between legal interest and "true annual interest?" Do you know that in some circumstances a seller may legally make credit charges totaling more than thirty per cent of the price of the article purchased? Do you know that usury, though against the law. k not * us a crime in Michigan? tations on interest do not control charges made for deferred payments, such as "revolving accounts," charges for delinquent payments, service charges and the like? If you'd rather be safe than broke, don't commit yourself to to buy anything until the seller buy anything until the seller has set down in writing the total price being charged for the goods, togge ther wiiii *he chargge being made for credit, in whatever form, not only for each installment but also for the total purchase.

Newton said that this increase would bring the beer levy closer into line with liquor taxes which averages lie per ounce. WINNER, AAA TRAFFIC SAFETY POSTER CONTEST The coming of spring signals a number of health reminders from your Michigan Department of Health. If you haven't already d o n e so, now is the time to have the family pet immunized against rabies. Both domestic and wild animals begin to increase their activity at this time of year and the chances for the spread of rabies also increase greatly. Have you had a tetanus booster in the last five years? If not, you'd better get o n e . It's your only protection against lockjaw. Tetanus spores, which cause lockjaw, live in the soil and may enter the body even through minor scratches gotten while working in the garden or doing other outside chores. Do not take chances — play it safe by getting tetanus booster protestion. April showers bring May flowers but also bring troubles f o r many suburbanites who h a v e sentic tanks which often overflow during periods of excessive sejHic tinics a^ftf~Welfi arUf If they become flooded and overflow do not drink the water. After the well water recedes, clean the well and chlorinate it after you have pumped it long enough to flow clear water. If you are unable to obtain safe water from another source and it is necessary for you to use your well, be sure to boil the water for at least 15 minutes before using. In the meantime, have your well water tested. Spring heralds the great rush of humanity for outdoors and increased physical activity of many kinds. Just a word of caution: remember those muscles are a bit soft and flabby from winter's inactivity, so take it -easy,—Jfle*ea«ephysical activity or hoe rub. Wearing gloves will also help. The spring rainy season usually brings a fresh batch of colds to school children. Dressing the children properly w i l l help prevent colds but if your child catches one, keep h i m home from school. One bad cold in the classroom will bring 20 or more in a few days^and before long the epidemic w i l l spread throughout the school. If you have a pre-schooler who will be entering school for the first time next fall, now is the time to start getting h i m ready. Most schools hold preschool conferences in May to register the next fall newscomers and local health departments start setting up their immunization clinics. Take advantage of the immunization clinics so that your child will be protected against polio, diptheria, whooping cough, lockjaw and smallpox when he reports for kingradually and save yourself .lost time from work and on the spring chores, by avoiding back strain and excessive muscle soreness from sudden physical exertion. For those over 40 — remember your heart deserves consideration. Take it easy. Spring is the season for blisters, too. They can be a dangerous source of infection if not properly taken care of, so treat them with the respect they deserve. A good way to avoid blisters is to put tape on pressure areas when the rake, shovel next ?cu* iv*iC!! immunization law requires these tering school for the first time, so now is the best time to see that your child is protected and ready for school. Only children whose parents or guardians do not wish to have them immunized because of religious or other convictions are exempt under the law. If you have some preschoolers who haven't b e e n started on their protective shots, bring them along. Immunization against all five of the diseases should start at three months of age. Spring also ushers in the season of increased travel on the highways. For your safety and that of others, don't try to stretch too long a trip into too short a period of time. Fatigued drivers are a major cause of highway accidents. BASS SEASON TO OPEN JUNE 1 Bass fishing season will open June First, hereafter, if a bill which passed the House Thursday, becomes law.

MICHIGAN MIRROR YESTERDAVS bare branches are tomorrow's buds and blossoms when spring bursts in Michigan. The transition from gray winter to green spring is a joy to watch in the Water Wonderland, and perhaps no where in the world do people take so much joy in watching it- Practically everybody knows about the Tulip Time Festival at Holland. The Klompen dancers and Old World displays put on by the people of Dutch descent in the city on Lake Michigan commemorate a proud heritage for many of the people in the area. But the miles of multi-colored tulips mark the celebration for WAGNER'S GROCERY 6006 PINCKNEY ROAD LOW PRICES Merchandise BEER «nd WINE TO TAKE OUT Phone Howell 705J2 what it truly is: A festival of Spring. Tulip Time is scheduled for May 17-21 this year. May and June are the months when spring has reached its peak, and most of Michigan makes t h e most of the season which n o t only denotes the end of winter but also is the harbinger of the state's fabulous tourist and resort season. The State Tourist Council lists 42 events and celebrations in its May. and June calendar, copies of which are available on request. Benton Harbor and St. Joseph, the "twin cities" of Southwest Michigan, celebrate spring with a Blossomtime Festival which is a tribute to the area's fruit-growing industry April 28- May 6. This event includes celebrations that are virtually sure to appeal to the tastes of practically everyone. On tap are a jazz seminar and concert, an art exhibit, a Mozart opera, an air show, the tradititional Grand Floral Parade May 6, the blessing of the blossoms and 125 miles of marked "blossom trails-1' In the Ira verse City area, a similar festival which accents the blossoming uf the cherry trees is scheduled for the latter part' of May, depending on when the tree* bloom. , Whatever form the celebration takes, spring is the thing in Michigan. Speaking of the Dutch, a group of state legislators w h o claim descent from the l o w countries have formed their OWJV "Klompen Klub" which t h e y hope will someday rival the enjoyment which all Michigan citizens get from similiar nationality groups. The Irish and their St. Patrick's Day rites can claim more attention than any of the other nationality groups represented among the lawmakers. Polish, Italian and numerous other "mother countries*' a r e represented, however. The Klompen Klub may even steal a march on the o t h e r nationality groups by having a more effective organization to start with than any of the others. Founded by Rep. Reimer Van Til, R-Holland, with assists from several other lawmakers, most of them from the west Michigan area, the group aims to do more than just parade its heritage for others to see. In announcing the Klub, Van Til said it would not only seek to promote the virtues of Hollanders, but would also work to promote better government The Holland lawmaker carefully pointed out, however, that the Proud sponsor and happy team pose with the trophies they were awarded as Champions of the Tuesday Night Ladies Bowling League at the banquet held at Anchor Inn Saturday night. Clark's Grocery team captured first place in the twelve-team league this season rewarding Roy Clark for his nine years as their sponsor.

Michigan Ave. HOWELL PH. 330 n*1 "J # BARBEQUE BRAZIER intend to "have a bit of fun" while carrying on their activities: Days of the dominating male may be numbered if a Michigan State University social scientist is correct. Dr. Ruth Hill Useem, a research consultant in sociology and anthropology, said women arc capable of handling practically any job that is open to men in modern society. Technology and organization have produced a system where sheer brute strength is no longer the chief need for survival, Dr. Useem said! While she did not predict an immediate return to the kitchen for the American male while wife goes out to earn the groceries, her view is that not only are women going more and more into the market place, but men are taking more and more of a hand in the management of the home. Males are also "invading" the formerly feminine fields of hairdressing, nursing and elemen- Useem said. As this change in the pattern of society takes place, man has as least one consolation: He no longer has to worry about being tied to a set of apron strings, because they could well be his own- ANCHOR 24 inch bowl.

How — then, can a group of hardworking, sincere, and energetic youths compete on equal terms against other schools? How can a coach answer the question, "Coach, how fast should I run?** when there are no facilities to correctly time and pace a runner?

Savings Bonds are guaranteed to grow: $18.75 becomes $25 in 7 years, 9 months, and grows to $36.25 in another 10 years. If they're lost or destroyed, the Treasury Department replaces them free. Buy and hold US. Savings Bonds —for the things you want, and the Peace to enjoy them. "America's Banks are proud to be part of the Bond Program,' "We believe it is food for America as an economic stabilizer; it is food for the individual and the community; and it is food for banking.

Grandmothers and aunts may be miles away, so parents often depend on a young girl in the neighborhood to care for ( their children. I 6etty Garlick, head of Sparj tan Nursery School at Michigan j State University, offers a few suggestions for parents who must hire 1* 4raby*sittcTT , She says a get-acquainted period is worth the extra money. Parents can pay a sitter to visit their home ahead of time to meet the child, the parents and see the home. Parents can help the sitter to know the child, his ways and his needs, and they can make sure the new sitter knows something of child care and safety. Miss Garlick advises parents to prepare a list of phone numbers which might be helpful in any situation. These should include numbers for reaching parents, a doctor, police, fire department or another "near-by" adult who can be called if necessary. As an _'extra,' Miss Garlick suggests parents leave some helpful literature on child care around the house. The young baby-sitter of today may be a parent in the near future.

MICHIGAN MIRROR A BIG PART OF THE problem faced by Michigan educators is the trouble they have keeping up with the school population increase. While the spokesmen for the teachers are far. from reticent when it comes to telling the Legislature and the public about the burdens they carry, the cold hard facts turned up by a recent Department of Public Instruction study are none the less impressive. According to the figures, there were 1,676,543 children in public schools in Michigan on the fourth Friday following Labor Day. The count, taken annually at this time, is used to determine the amount due each school district in state aid payments. This year's tabulation showed some 52,281 more students enrolled for the 1960-61 school year than were in public schools the previous semester. Enrollment increase this year was 2,625, greater than the increase last year over the previous figure. But the high this year fell beiow the average increase over the t reason for the higher average was the huge enrollment increases in 1955-56 and 1956-57. Gain over the previous school year when the count was taken in 1956 and 1937 was well over 66,000 students each time. The total membership increase in Michigan public schools for the last five years has been 291,584, according to the study by the divisions of research and department services of the Department of Public Inction. struct ion. A fact that shouldn't be lost in looking at these figures is that The first Marine Corps pilot was lieutenant Alfred A. Cunningham, who took to the air in August, 1912. NOTICE they stand for children, who are entitled to basic education. Indications are that the increase for the coming s c h o o l year, that is, the count that will be taken the fourth Friday after Labor Day, 1961, will be about 45,000, the Department says. • * * Lead pellets from the guns ol hunters which never reach their mark still cause a heavy toll among Michigan's ducks a n d The Dispatch will Run ANY CLASSIFIED AD Waterfowl pick up lead pullets from the bottom of lakes and other feeding grounds while searching for food and grit This delayed kill occasionally reaches alarming proportions.

K. Kekey of The Detroit News Still amused by the signs all over town telling drivers t h a t they are paying 10 cents in taxes on every gallon of motor fuel they buy, the Commentator has done some delving. He finds that as of Dec. 31, 1959, the l a s t statistics easily available show 13 states with a combined federal and local tax of 11 cents, five collecting 1014 cents, and 19, including Michigan, 10 cents. That leaves 13 states where fortunate motorists pay less, one where the contribution is 914 cents, 11 where it is 9 cents, and one, Missouri, where it is only 7 cents. Even so, who in Michigan would care to live in Missouri? Most of the taxes collected go into the construction and maintenance of roads. In the good Did days when roads were built of mud it was the duty of the property owner who was too poor to pay the town or county road tax to get out with pick and shovel and help his impecunious neighbors work out the amount of their tax, at maybe $1 a day. Why not revert to thfe custom? The a ver it, it's too late. The run road of 1890 has largely c ppeared, along with the stone ad of 1900. A farmer simply Hasn't ujne to lay a h*bway.

We turned over the entire proceeds from our f i r s t school paper this year to the 1961-CROP OATS COUNTY PRICE SUPPORT RATES SET! The U.S. Department of Agriculture recently announced 1961- crop oats county support rates. The rates are based on the 1961 national average support price of 62 cents per bushel for Grade No. 3 oats. The method followed in determining rates is the same as in previous years. While the 1961 national average support price is 12 cents per bushel above the 1960 level county rates are increased 13 cents per bushel from 1960 rates because of shifts in production in the heavy producing areas where market prices are normally lower. Terminal rates are not established for oats. Price support will be carried out, as in previous years, thru farm and warehouse stored loans and purchase agreements. Support will be available from har- Ivest time through Jan. 31, 1962. Loans will mature on April 30, 1962, in Michigan. Copies of the county rates are available at the County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASC) Offices. Copies will be available also in the Grain Division, Commodity Stabilization Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Washington 25, DC, •1 • m» May 19, dedication of new Rugby Stan.

While the use of air mail envelopes for first-class surface mail is unfortunate not widespread, usage h frequent enough to m e r it special attention." So says Postmaster Lawrence Baughn. The colorful red and b l ue bordered envelopes are restrict* ed to mail intended for transportation by air. If this restriction is not observed, there is potential trouble and embarrassment for everyone concerned. Air mail envelopes which do not bear- sufficient postage (7c per ounce up to 8 ounces) are handled as air mail, and postage due is collected from the addressee. In the process, the post offices involved are compelled to give the item in question special and expensive attention. The person to whom the envelope is delivered is certainly not pleased when he is requested to pay for special service that neither he nor the sender had in mind. Questions about air mail will be quickly answered by calling at the Post Office, NNCKNI Y XT By RUSS ENGELHARDT, Mmagm We received this letter in our Business Office the other day and we think it might be of interest to you: Dear Sirs - I have had my hearing aid phone since Jan. 9th, 1961.

The Kirkland Centennial farm will grow one Friendship Acre of wheat for CROP this year. Mr. and Mrs. George Kirkland, long time CROP workers, are the first in the County to report a 1961 Friendship Acre. Partial reports indicate there are a number of others. A Livingston County donor who wishes to remain anonymous has agreed to match two for one all 1961 contributions in excess of Livingston Counly ^1959 CROP gift*=^of $2,357. 1 3.

LUMBER - COAL - FUEL OIL PROMP T DELIVERY POUS «tor n A IWCUITY MOM HA M i l t From where I sit... 6y Joe Marsh Teache r Learns a Lesson TRACTORS ARE DANGEROUS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE Farm boys should not drive tractors on the highway until they have licenses to drive cars, believes an agricultural safety engineer at Michigan S t a t e University. Richard Pfister says tractors on the highway are really more dangerous and harder to drive than cars. Youngsters can steer, but many lack needed judgement. "Twenty-eight of the state's seventy-two tractor highway fatalities since 1955 have involved children under 14," Pfister points out. "That's a big toll considering that these kids spend two-thirds of the year in school." By comparison, only e i g ht men between 30 and 44 suffered similar mishaps. These men do a good share of the tractor work. Highway tractor accidents have been getting more serious. In 1955, Michigan had t wo tractor fatalities in the field for every one on the highway. Now the two are about equally common.

"One of our board members didn't even go to high school, let alone college." "No! Who?" she said. "Me," he said. From where I alt, some of us want people to be carbon copies of ourselves.

Carried. Swanson that all Teacher's signed contracts be returned by The Board entered into a lengthy discussion on the proposed school budget as presented by Supt. Reader. It is difficult to draw up a budget as the following items are not available at this time: 1. State Aid per child is not available until the State Legislature adjourns. 2. School assessed valuation is not available until the Board of Supervisors meet in late April or early May. 3. Child accounting is n o t definite till following s c h o o l year.

Due to numerous inquiries in regard to establishing a track for High School competition, the Board is undecided as to whether to locate it on limited basis on the local field of plot its future within the next Build ing program.

This fund could be available for purchasing a site for future school, possibly adding additional classrooms. Last bond issue calls for 3 tax dollars for purpose of using $2. The negative opinion that defeated the proposal was based on the fact that there was strong possibility of another "bond millage vote "before another year passed — no doubt causing much confusion — thus erasing a possible solution.

Consolation period, The committee of "Future Building Activity" was not prepared to offer any report on future needs to date. The task is turning out to be complex and difficult. In checking the former Pettysville school building it was found that it would be necessary to begin to repair that building. Due to the fact that it does not fit into the present sys- j tern without a heavy capital outlay, the Board decided to sell the property. Motion by Swanson, 2nd by Goucher that we sell the Pettysville school building and land and place the proceeds into the general fund. Carried. Basydlo- Goucher appointed to handle the sale. Motion by Goucher, 2nd by Swanson that the Board of Education invest the funds in the Reserve Building account — in U.S. Treasury bonds and hav£ the McPherson Band handle the transaction. Carried. Supt. Reader was asked to carry out this on behalf of the Board. In discussing the "track program'* Mr. Gilbert D u n n pointed out that there was sufficient land to establish a minimum oval track at the Hamburg Elementary School at Hamburg. The possibility of establishing one at the Veterans Athletic field is being checked. At this time, Mr. Lloyd Hendee entered into a4 length discussion on the transportation of youngsters by busses. Mr. Robert Dunn, who is in charge of the transportation department, and Supt. Reader pointed out that the Dept. of Education of Lansing draws up rules and regulations for Schools to abide by in order to he reimbursed for ahts service. There is a stronger movement to establish more ' loading zones and minimize the lengthy routes and numerous stops, thus more road travel for school children to meet the busses. Mr. Hendee pointed out that there is growing concern over the youngsters safety on the road due to many outbreaks by sex-maniacs. This is a grave problem facing the whole Nation to-date. Alertness by parents and their children may help to control this problem. Mr. Robert Dunn discussed the report on the busses to date. He pointed out that this District needed two new busses. Instead of disposing of the busses that, are to be replaced, he suggested we keep them for spare busses. Only International Dealers were asked to submit bids — The International busses are m o r e economical to maintain and to operate. Bids are as follows — Howell — 2 chassis — $6970 —66 pass. bus. Chelsea — 2 chassis— $6873 — 66 pass. bus. Stockbridge — $7077 — 2 chassis — 66 pass. bus. Wayne body — $3795 each. Superior body — $3799 each, Motion by Swanson, 2nd by Mrs. Towsley that we accept the f^fr^sniir Transportation Administrator, and purchase the chassis from the lowest bidder, Chelsea, and One Wayne and one Superior body. Also have installed a heavy duty generator in each. Carried. Motion by Basydlo, 2nd by Mrs. Towsley that we accept the recommendation of Supt. Reader to purchase new car for Driver Training Program and trade the present on the new purchase. Carried. Mr. Reader to handle the transaction. Supt. Reader was authorized to proceed with the Census as in the past. The manufacturers of ths Bleacher seats have been accused of price fixing and many of the School Districts who h a v e purchased seats since 1955 have grouped together and proceeded to start suit against them. Pinekney school have purchased two sets — Gym and Athletic field. The Board approved the action against these concerns and authorized the School attorney to file a claim. Secretary read the following communication:— 1. Letter of Appreciation from the Elementary Student ! council. \ 2. Letter from Mrs. Rene Miller, Elem. teacher, stating her reason for leaving the Elementary staff for another position in Ann Arbor. Board's wishes for a successful new beginning.

G a r y H u l , and you How this 20-year-old partnership helps keep America strong Since May 1941, America's banks have sold nearly 2 billion separate U.S. Savings Bonds at no cost to the Government or the taxpayers. To give you some idea of the time involved: if you merely handed out that many Bonds at the rate of 1 a second for 10 hours a day, it would take you 152 yean to reach the bottom of the pile. Why have the nation's banks and bankers carried on this vast project of information, service, and issuance of UJ5. Savings Bonds? A winning team. For one reason, the Bond program and the Banking business have grown together. Hand in hand, they've helped make Americans the saving-est people in the world. Another thing bankers are interested in: Bond dollars help keep America strong. A good reason for the Banking business or any business to get behind the Bond program. What you buy at the Bond window. Savings Bonds are guaranteed to grow: $18.75 becomes $25 in 7 years, 9 months, and grows to S3&25 in another 10 years. If they're lost or destroyed, the Treasury Department replaces them free.

This does not mean you should have a whole, half, or even a quarter page advertisement in each issue of the paper, but your name and address should be mentioned, if you do not use more than several inches of space. "A stranger picking up a newspaper should be able to tell what business is represented in a town... it's the best possible town advertiser. The man or woman who does not advertise does an injustice to himsdf or herself and definitely to the town." Start an advertising schedule for yourself!

Hope avenue on the edge of the MSU campus spreads an attractive two-story building of brick and glass that shelters a varied and fascinating operation little known to most of the state's nearly eight million citizens. Consumer protection is almost as much a part of the building as the concrete a n d steel. The structure is actually a collection of separate laboratories, each performing analysis and chemical determinations on different products bought by the people of the state. The building is the Michigan Department of Agriculture's W. C. Geagley laboratory, named in honor of the man who was chief chemist until his retirement last year after 41 Vi years of service to to state. Analyzed in this building last year were 3,01J) food samples; 4,237 samples of dairy products of all kinds; 7,149 lots of seeds to determine their germination and purity; 211 tests of soft drinks and fruit juices. In addition there were 6,070 plant or tree specimens tested, and 1,515 analyses of feeds, fertilizers and liming materials. Some analyses take many hours to complete. Seeds take days and weeks. It should be emphasized here that the vast majority of food processors in the state operate legally; keeping tract of the exceptions helps them too by reducing unfair competition. The consumer, of course, is the biggest benefactor. By far the largest number of analyses were in the area of livestock disease control where 204,- 791 tests were run. These were mainly blood samples run for bovine brucellosis, a highly contagious disease of cattle which is transmissable to man under certain conditions in the form of undulant fever. All in all some quarter of a million analyses were made in this important facility last year. These are chemical, biological or microscopic. One laboratory is devoted entirely to the analyses of alcoholic beverages for t h e State Liquor Control Commission. Another dealing with a highly specialized branch of chemistry is devoted to analysis of saliva and urine collected at race tracks to determine if horses have been doped. This is done for and at the cost of the Michigan Racing Commission. Services performed for t h e liquor and racing agencies of the state and at their expense may be important but they are relatively minor functions. The main purpose of the laboratory is to protect consumers, whether they be purchasers of foods or buyers of such things as Whenever an FmerKency Arises Let Us Help You Meet It' YOU'LL <.ET IMMEDIATE ACTION CITIZENS FINANCE CO.

Many "interesting" things I show up in the foods laboratory from samples picked up throughout the state by workers in the Michigan Department of Agriculture's foods and standards division. Violations are surprisingly few when one considers the millions of purchases of food in the state in a week. When adulteration, misbranding or illegal ingredients are detected, action from the Department follows promptly. In the past coffee has b e e n found to be adulterated w i t h chickory or even roasted cereals. Chemists have analyzed black pepper mixed generously with buckwheat flour to which capsicum had been added to give the mixture a peppery taste. Not infrequently egg noodles contain artificial color. This is illegal. The yellow color of egg noodles must come from egg solids and not artificial color. Recently samples of bottled catsup were found to contain sand — and also insect eggs. Traced to the source, cases after case was seized and destroyed. Seldom is the laboratory with- j "A HARD LESSON REVIEWED" By Paul L. Adams State Attorney General A year ago, in the season oi roses, June graduates and commencement celebrations, I warned of diploma mill operators which drain school savings and exploit the wish of Michigan parents to educate their children. One "civil service training" operation was halted by the Supreme Court, at my insistence and left the state. Recently, my staff has received a series of complaints from persons being solicited in Michigan on behalf of unapproved "educational" and "training" courses offered by foreign corporations not authorized to do business in Michigan, by salesmen not licensed to solicit in this state. These include civil service training for would-be state and federal jobholders, training meat. This rather elaborate term for ground meat includes hamburger and sausage products as well. Michigan probably has the strictest sausage law in the world. Certain sausage ingredients acceptable in some states are illegal in Michigan. In this state skeletal meats only may be used. This eliminates pork snouts, pork stomachs, beef lungs, beef spleens and pork skins as were plainly marked as ingredients on canned smoked sausage seized some time ago. Frequently frankfurters a r e tested for adulterants such as soy bean flour which absorbs several times its weight in water, giving the purchaser less meat ior-Jier money.^Anothe.r Multexant is sodium caseinate. which is derived from milk, ll adds to the protein of sausage and its ability to absorb water. Hamburg samples are usually sent in by Department inspectors for chemical preservatives determination or possible high fat content. Hamburg cannot contain more than 30 per cent fat. In the case of pork sausage, fat content cannot exceed 50 percent. During the warrri periods of summer, food poisoning cases may occur as a result of certain foods not being properly refrigerated. This is particularly so of cream pies, custards, some salad dressings, and meats. In these instances, samples of the suspected food are rushed to the bacteriological section of this East Lansing laboratory to determine what toxins are present. To the citizen interested in seeing how food and drink are analyzed to assure him of a wholesome product that is honestly labeled, or that innumerable other analytical tests on many different articles are performed to protect his health and pocketbook, a trip through this State agricultural laboratory is a must, says Agricultural Director G. S. Mclntyre. courses for jet mechanics, practical nurses, and a variety of other "courses." (There are, of course, legtimate organizations tfm*hinfl these subjects). If you wish to avoid heartbreak and financial disaster, I suggest you demand evidence of a license issued by the Superintendent of Public Instruction before signing or paying anything to a correspondence school salesman. If approached by an unlicensed salesman, I will appreciate it if you will notify my office or your local prosecuting attorney at once.
