TOO MANY PEOPLE in too little space. That's the probleIn the Michigan Department of Con-seri'ation must faice as it trys to pi-ovide adequate park facilities for residents and tourists in the years ahead.
Mioliigan's 59 state parks are already bulging at the seaIjIs. In 1955 some 18 million persons jammed the state's playground areas. According to Gerald Eddy, director of the Department of ConseI'vation, this figure is expected to swell to more than 38 million persons in the next 10 years.
Crowded conditions multiply the problems. Already, parking spaces are often unavailable. Sanitary facilities are inadequate. Picnic tables are difficult to locate. On week ends the problem becoInes most acute.
_ Equipment in parks needs constant replacement. Age, heavy usage, and weather conditions all take their toll.
To do a good job, additional funds are necessaiy for proper liiaintenance and an expansion of facilities. According to a report by the Automobile Club of Michigan, tho state is falling behind the nation not only in expanding facilities, but in keeping tiie present pa:* system properly maintained.
Excluding headquarlers pei'-sonnel, tiiei'e is an average of only one employe for every 400 acres of park land, says AAA. It becomes an impossible task to keep washrooms clean, grounds free from litter, picnic tables and stoves in repair.
sion. In 1955, appropriations were of Industrial Realtors, Carl Ros-
StaJe Legislatures have been reluctant to increase appropriations. In 1951, the Conservation Department received approximately $2 million to provide for both maintenance and expan-
slightly more than $3% million. During the same .period attendance shot up ft'om 12 million to 17 million persons.
In other words, Michigan spends about 14c for each park visitor. The national average is 30c per visitoL
•
To spearhead a $2 million dollar progi'am, tlie Conservation Department is asking the legislature to allot $6 million for parks in 1957. One-half this amount would be spent for new land— the rest for Inaintenance and-improvements. In subsequent years more of tlie money would be spent for park improvement, less for land.
If successful, the appropriations must be spread over a five-year period. This means several future legislatures must act favorably on the bills,
* * f
What are the alternatives? The A A A makes four proposals in addition to increased legislative ap propriations. 1) Sell windshield "stickers" that would permit^a car to visit any state park in the system as often as desu-ed during the year of issue, regardless of the number ot people in the car. 2) Charge a pai-king fee. 3) Charge an admission fee for cars and passengers. 4) Sell a Bond issue, to be retired out of park concession returns and oil, gas iind other Inineral royalties,
One final alternative; Withhold the money, l»t the parks decay and lose Inany of Michigan's recreational areas.
NOW THAT DUST is settling in the recent state political campaign, a calmer view is emerging from the political charges that industry is leaving Michigan because of high taxes and labor costs.
In a survey conducted by the Michigan chapter of the Society
man, president of the group re-ports that three industrial firms have moved into Michigan for evei'y one leaving the state.
• • »
Tlie survey indicates that Michigan is continuing to grow in industrial strength and is holding its own against competition from other states. Charges that industry is moving out of the state because of high taxes and labor costs ''have either been unfounded or grossly exaggerated," Ros-man states.
"Michigan has one of the most outstanding industrial development programs in the .nation, and I feel it's important lo show every individual that he has a share in it,'' Rosman concludes.
HERE WE GO AGAINI With the embers of the last election still glowing, both political parties are busy collecting new fuel for the spring elections, April 1.
Tho stakes are high. Posts to be filled include State Highway Commissioner, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, members of the Board of Regents and BoaI-d of Agriculture (governing bodies of the University of Michigan and Michigan Stale University) and one Supreme Court Justice.
Winners in this election will hold control over state highways, schools and thc judicial system.
Biggest plum falls to the next Highway Commissioner, Many roads planned for years will soon be opened. With aUnost unlimited building funds available in the near future, whoever holds the post is certain to reap more glory and fewer tears.
All these jobs are currently held by Republicans with the exception of the Supreme Court post. Charles M. Ziegier is expected to seek re-election as highway commissioner. The Democrats will probably oppose him with Carl McMonagle, a former member of Ziegler's staff, now working on highway safety pro-gram at Michigan State University.
Clair L. Taylor, currently the State Superintendent of Schools, will run again according to cap-itol sources. Democrats have not named his opponent,

You're looking at a mighty surprised man. Almost all of his adult life he has owned nnd
di'iven Cadillac cai's. Aiid so, wlien he decided to take an hour out from iiis busy sclicdule to see and drive tlic new 1957 Cadillac, he thought lie kneiv about what to expect.
Well, liere lie is—barely under way In the city —and already he Is learning tlie startling truth.
He Is learning lhat nol/iiit<j could adequately prepni'e a man for tlie new "car of cars"—not even Cadillac oivnci'sliip itself!
l ie suspected it, in fact, the instant he stepped Into tlie sliowi'oom nnd caught Iiis first glimpse of this newest Cadillac ci'oation. This was an entirely new kind of Cadillac beauty—bf-Illiantly fresh in line and In contour.
And then lie opened tho door and swung Into
the driver's seat—and found added evidence all around him. On every side werc new miracles of Interior beauty and comfort and convenience.
And when he turned the key and put his foot on tlic accelerator, his sentiment grew to convlc-tion. Tlie car ivas incredibly nimble and quiet and smooth of ride.
Surprised, did we say? Just wait until he hits the open highway and receives tlie final verdict.
No question about '\t—litis ir ihe Cadillac llial iilcrall!/ surpasses its own great repulalionl
_\Ve suggest tliat you come In soon to see and drive this most surprising new Cadillac in fifty-four years. It's an experience you shouldn't postpone—and one you'll not soon forget.

Hot words arose Monday night as Novi township building inspector Cameron Lodge was angrily charged with performing police functions that do not fall within the duties of his office.
Treasurer Charles Trickey, Jr., in reading ii Written statement to the board, charged Lodge with grilling a driver for allegedly crossing a yeollow line on Grand River last week. He further charged Lodge with similar incidents.in the past,
Lodge was not present at the meeting to answer the charges. Contacted later by the Novl News, Lodge said, "No comment."
Specifically, Trickey said he had seen Lodge pulling up behind tlie car in question and talk to the, driver. Moments later, Trickey said, a Novi policeman— apparently called by Lodge—arrived and talked lo the driveL
Trickey added that the driver told him he had no driver's license biit that no ticket had been issued to him. The driver also said Lodge had shown a badge, Trickey said.
"A building Inspector has no right acting as a policeman,'' Trickey said. "I've had com-
• plaints about it, and I think he should be told to stop it."
Several members of the audience spoke up in agreement with Trickey.
Supervisor Frazer Staman said he had investigated Trickey's
complaint and was told by Lodge that he had not stepped out of the bounds of his office in the incident.
Staman told the Novi News later that he will continue to look into the matter.
Trickey also claimed that Lodge carries a pistol while penformlng the duties of a building inspector and that he has a sken on his caL
Staman replied that Lodge has a gun permit and that he has been instructed ,to remove the siren.
ln a further charge, Trickey said Lodge once had been deputized by the Oakland county sheriff's department and that the deputization has been revoked when it was learned Lodge lives in Plymouth.
Staman answered later that the permit was not requested by either the township or Lodge, but that it had been issued inadvertently by the sheriff's department. He said f-urther that he believed Lodge could be deputized if the township should request it,

A proposal is under study to set up a building fund for construction of a new fire hall and voting precinct building in the Walled 'Lake area of Novi township.
Recommendation for the proposal came from Supervisor Frazer Staman at the township board meeting Monday night.
Staman suggested setting aside part of the annual proceeds from the Novi township park for future cons'truction of the new facilities. He noted that an additional fire hall and Voting precinct Building probably would be needed in the towIiship within the next few years.
Further action Was set aside until the board's next meeting.

An elderly woman today is sought by police for questioning in connection with allegedly obtaining as much as SIO.OOO and additional- in merchandise from Northville residents in the past seven months.
Sought is "Mrs. Yvonne Chauvin", 65, Who lived at 238 Church street in Northville from April until last week.
"Yvonne Chauvin" is one of 22 aliases listed in state police records of the woman—who also has a record of forgery, larceny by trick, insufficient funds, uttering — and publishing and parole violation dating back to 1036.
According to Michigan state police lieutenant Howard Whaley, "Mrs. Chauvin" is suspected of having loft Northville with between $8,000 and $10,000 in return for checks wilh total face values of as much as $85,000. Most of the checks are believed held by -Northville residents, Whaley said.
"Mrs. Chauvin" is now being sought • by Cleveland police on request of Michigan slate police, according to Whaley. She is thought to have flown lo Cleveland last week, he said, but police as yet have no lead on her there.
Whaley said slale police have names of at least 30 Northville area residents who are believed to have had dealings with "Mrs. Cliauvin," Many of them refuse to give information, apparently not wishing to become involved, he said.
One person who has signed a complaint to slate police, according to Whaley, claimed she gave 'Airs. Chauvin" $4,855 in return
for only a $2,500 check. "Mrs. Chauvin" a p p a r e n t l y
came to Northville in April, Whpley .said, after being discharged from the Detroit House of Correction where she had been in detention off and on since 1943.

After several months of stormy public debate,, a controversial zoning amendment that would allow estalblishment of a race track in Novi township was passed Monday night.
Township board members voted unanimously for the amendment.
Within minutes after the board meeting ended, however, petitions were circulated in the town-ship chambers to call a public referendum on the zoning change. Other petitions were turned over lo directors of the Willowbrook Community association for theur use if they desire.
The petitions, if properly filed with soIhe 285 signatures, would
force a'public vote. It would be the last chance for opposition to theiamendment.
The township board's vote surprisingly ..came without a word of 'dissent from the audience of some 30 persons, a number of whoIn h^Ve spoken out violently against the nowTpermitted race track; Several of them indicated they -preferred to let the amend-ihent be passed and then prepare to fight it.
Petitions must be filed within 30 days after Monday night if the referendum is to toe called.
The board's action thus brings to a head several months of argument/during which plans have
-been .teleased bit by bit for a
multi-minion dollar race track and sports center at Meadow-brook and Grand RiveL The plan was blocked until Monday night by the site being zoned M-l .
But the new amendment changes its zoning to M-3 and would permit a race track there as a legitimate business.
The Novi Raceways organization, backer of the project, now has the approval necessary to appear before slate racing commissioner James H. Inglis and ask for a track license. Whether lhat would be done soon has not been indicated.
Township zoning board and board members have stressed, however, that the amendment
grants approval only of unspeci-fied heavy industry — and not a race track in particular. Several other industries are reportedly interested in part of the site, al-Ihougli it is common ltnowledge —through the revealed plans-thai the proposed track Is re-ceiving high consideration.
Board Inemibers 'also have pointed out that blocking of the race tr^ck—by turning down the amendment—would have exclud-ed all heavy industry from the site, and might have set a precedent that would keep out such industry from the entire town-ship.
ently had taken a number of them into her confidence.' She ivas a familiar figure lo many Northville businessmen.
According' lo Wayne county assistant prosecutor John Mow-alt, legal action might be taken against her either in the form of a civil suit fqr,recovery of funds or a criminal suit for a possible s o - c a l l e d "confidence game."
State police have reported these additional allegations, Whaley said:
—"Mrs. Chauvin'" owes rental and_ telephone bills.
—She received' considerable merchandise f r o m NorthVille merchants in return for checks. Much of the merchandise has been returned.
—one Northville resident is h()lding a check for $50,000 but will not say whether he gave
Mrs. Chauvin"' cash for it. —she had frequent use of an
automobile owned by a Northville businessman.
—she paid plane fare for the same businessman to fly to California to tell his son she would send him a certified check for $70,000 as a gift in two weeks,
—she claimed to be interested buying downtown buildings to
house a corporation which would include Northville residents as officers.
—"MI'S. Ohauvin" claimed to be ready to receive a $500,000 trust fund, and gave out checks to be held until the trust fund was legally hers. She was said to have received ca?h for the checks—often, for as little as half their face Value, —she owes Robert Wrenn, 136
East Main, and his wife — who served as her chauffeur and housekeeper for at least five months — upwards of $1,600 in back wages.
Whaley said the last peIsbn in Northville to see "-Mrs. Chauvin"

said, "she was gone. I checked through the airlines office and found she had bought two tickets for Cleveland. One was a rouud-.iiip ticket, apparently for me," he added.
Wrenn said he had driven her at vari'ous times to Ann Arbor. Plymouth and Farmington, in addition lo other trips into Detroit and around Northville. '
He described her as "well-versed, intelligent and very convincing," and added that she often seemed to be "living in the past."
The story of "Mrs. Ohauvin's" dv-ailings first came to light the day after Thanksgiving w h e n NorthviUe attorney Clifton Hill • reportedly evicted her from his office after she had asked him lo represent her in legal matters concerning her supposed trust fund.
She apparently had come to Hill to give credence to a story, told to one of her acquaintances, that Hill was her attorney.

To Ihe Editor:
I was at the Novi Township Board meeting Monday night and listened lo Charles Trickey, Jr., Novi Township treasurer wasting liie time of the Township Board condemning Cameron Lodge, the building inspoolor, for his fancied interference in an alleged traffic violation. It seems that Mr. Trie-key has plenty of time to follow Mr. Lodge around the township trying to find fault with him but from Mr. Trickey's own statement he doesn't have time to make a proper financial report which is his duty as treasurer.
In fact I have attended many board meetings and for a 'self professed expert on efficiency it has happened many times that Mr. Trickey has failed to have a proper finaneial report prepared for the township board meeting.

Striking photogi-aphs of rocky coastlines and a German cemetery won top honors last week in the first amateur contest ever held in Northville,
A total of 180 35mm slides were shown Wednesday night before 80 viewers, after ^vhich some 25 judges casit ballots for the win-ning entries.
The contest was sponsored by Northville's junior and adult camera clubs in cooperation with the Norlhviile Optimist club.
Actual -winner, with 17 votes, was attorney Clitton Hill with a photograph of a rock-bound c o a s t l i n e , entitled, "Acapulco Shores'', But Hill, chairman of the event for the Optimists, later withdrew from the judging.
In all, 10 contesitanls tied for the four top spots — two for first, three for second, three for third, and two for fourth. They were:
'First Place —An ocean coastline, with
breakei's Smashing against rocks; Georgiana Couse, 45875 West 7 Miie road,
—a suniit cemetery gleaming in the iiazy Black Forest of Ger
many; Robert Webb, news editor of the Record,
Second Place —Twin waterfalls at Yosemite
park: Dr. W. J, Sleininger, 20145 Beck road.
—Water liiies floating in a pond: Edward Grieger, 18110 Northville road.
—Autumn woods, seen across a placid lake: Mrs. George Jerome, 743 Horton.
Third Place —A single cloud, shimmering
in sunlight: Harold D, Hartley, Jr., 002 Randolph.
—Lighitning dancing on a rooftop during an electrical storm: John Wortman, 231 Wing street.
—A view far down upon the buildings of a large city: Charles Ely, Jr., 603 Randolph.
Fourth Place —A still life scene of corn,
gourds and other vegetables in a tipped-over basket; Mrs. Betty Doaring, 561 Carpenter.
—A dog and cat resting peacefully together before a blazing fireplace: Ken Snyder of Northville.
Winners in the first four places
will receive cash prizes. The Record here prints copies
of the fii-st place winners. It shouid be noted that the originals were colored slides, and tliat reproductions cannot cap-lui'o their beauty accurately.
Hill said the turnout both of entries and viewei's was "very pleasing" and that another con-

lest probably will be planned for sometime in the spring. He expected such a contest would di-aw at least 500 entries,
Mrs. Betty Dearing, president of the Northville Adult Camera club, acted as master of cere-monies of the program and supervised the showing of the slides. All slides were described by number only, so that judges were unaware of the entrants' names and voting was done by number oniy.
"ACAPULCO SHORES" won first place for attorney Clifton HUl in the photo contest sponsored last week by the two Northville camera clubs and the Northville Optimisls, Hill, co-chairman of-ihe contest, withdrew his pholo from competition.

and advance indications point to an additional 30,000 this year, Jerry E. Fisher, AutomobileiClub of Michigan touring Inanager, reports.
He said Michigan' drivers to Florida this year will have, a choice of two main routes, the-castern route tliroughi Cincinnati, lCnoxvillc and Atlanta covet^ L425 miles from petroit to Mi-ami but includes some Inountain' driving. The western r o u t e through Louisville and Nash; ville is 12 Iniles longer but takes only 35 minutes more driving time,
Most drivers prefer the flatter routes after mid-DecemlJer when Inountain roads -may be slippery or snow-covered but like the hilly I-oute during late fall and early spring because of added scenic qualities, he said.
He also cautioned drivers from Michigan that plans are underway to rearrange some route numbers in Alalbama early in 1957. He advised drivers after January 15 to obtain new route maps or cjieck with Alabama officials on .possible changes.
Motorists this year may use, four turnpiites in their Florida trips, he said. These include those in Ohio, Indiana, -Kentucky and the new Sunshine Parkway, scheduled to open January 1 between Fort Pierce and Miami in FloI-ida.
Florida is also expected to be the first state in the nation to standardize signing of all U.S, routes by color with the program slated to start with green mark-ers on US-27.
i........... WINTER WONDERLAND? — It was last week, at least^as even the picnic tables at Cass Benton park bedded down for the winter. But Mother Nature turned the tables this week wilh a few warm days, and the tables came out from underthe blankets of snow along-with highways, side-walks and fronj porches.

Local United States .Army Re cruiter SFC "Hank'' Zalewski has announced a new iplan for Army enlistments during the coming holiday period.
Young men may be enlisted after Deconuber l5 and placed on furlough at once at their homes until aftew New Year's Day wthen they will leave for basic training. For the leave period at home they will receive full Army pay, allowances and benefits.
Present enlistment options in the .Army provide for regular three year enlistments and enlistments for two years active duty.
In addition, men between the ages of 17 to 18V.! may enlist in the Army reserve and have only six -Inonths active duty. This plan is particularly interesting to high school students whose six months active duty will be deferred until after graduation. High school graduates may still apply for a technical school of their choice before enlistment and thus have "choice, not chance". • ,
Parents of local young men are reminded of .the "Inilitary information" night to be held at Bentley high school at 8 p.m. on December ilO. Complete iniforma-. tion on present military obligations and the Reserve Forces Act will be available. Local schools and parent and service groups are sponsoring it/his event as a public service.
Sgt. Zalewski works from the United States Army Recruiting office at Grand River and South-field. He is in Plymouth at the Junior Achievement building on Mondays and Wednesdays from 10 a.m. to 3 -pjm. Information may also be obtained .by calling VEr-mont 5-3243.
Northville will start using yellow "courtesy boxes" located in the business district this week for the depositing of fines for overtime parking.
Poiice chief Joseph Denton announced that new parking violation tickets — in the form of yellow envelopes — also will be issued when the boxes are in-staiied. Parking Violators may pay fines by placing money in the enevelope and depositing it in the "courtesy boxes".
The fine for overtime parking has been reduced to 50o if paid .Within 24 hours. If not paid by •then, the minimum charge is $1.
The "courtesy boxes'' will be placed on strategically located meter posts just below the parking meter.
Main purpose of parking meters is to insure a change-over parking in specified areas and not as

U N D E R S T A N D - " So many times good, sin-
cere -people get interested in becoming a Christian and get-
•ting right with the Lord. They have set about lo read the Bible hoping that they can find the answers to their hearts cry. They were disappointed— not
because the Bible does not contain 4he answers but because they could not under-stand what the Bible said, and because they did not know where to look. Perhaps you, dear reader, are in that posi-tion now? If so — let me give you a tip. Choose out a preacher in your town who preaches the Gospel, one who Pastors a Church ivhere souls are saved and the lives of such are clian-ged. Then call this preacher up on the telephone and tell him plainly that you would lilte him to call and e.\iplain the Gospel to you. Imposing on him? Not on your life, he will thank God for the opportunity of presenting Christ to an interested person. Read the account in Acts 8 regarding Phiiiip and the eunuch. The eunuch was reading the Bible and didn't understand it. So the Spirit directed Evangelist was invited up into the chariot to explain it to him. There are thousands ot good sound Gospel preachers that stand ready lo help you. Why not avail yourself of their services?

It's not every day — or even every year — Jhal firemen get a chance lo sit by and waich a beautifully blazing building.
For Novi Jownship volunteers, however, one such day came along lasl week when ihey set fire lo an ancient house near Ihe new Lincoln plant and then warmed their hands while it burned to ihe ground.
Occasion for the Iwisl-about fire was Ihe desire of Lincoln officials lo raze the old building on the site of ihe new plant. Novi volunleers were called in for the lask — and given a chance lo improve their fire-fighting techniques as well.
Under fh:e chief Fred Loynes and director of public safely Lee BeGole, firemen Bel two small blazes and then entered Ihe house lo extinguish them wilh "fog" — vaporized water.
But the third ignition was the big one, and as it took hold, Ihe chilled firemen stood back and let Ihe rickety structure burn brilliantly into a pile of ashes.
IN ITS DYING MINUTES, an old house begins lo burn as it steps aside for the sprawling new Lincoln plant (background) near Novi. Standing by are volunleers of the Novi township fire deparlnlSnt, who used the opportunity lo gain further experience.
BRILLIANT FLAMES lick over the doomed building, and an ugly black cloud of smoke rolls skyward.
THEIR WORK NEARLY FINISHED, firemen begin io roll up Iheir hoses and wail for Ihe end. They stayed on, however, until the last spark was extinguished. (Fire engine No. 4 stayed al the fire hail to protect the township in case of a fire.)
FIELD DAY FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS — Two Detroit newspaper lensmen pose a gag shot with Novi volunteer William Paquette who chomps on a cigar, leans on his hatchet and wails for the blaze lo consume the building.

N o r t h v i l l e F a i l s t o C l i c k
"Why couldn't you do that against Plymouth?" was the byword this week as coach Stan Johnston put his Northville Mustang cagers through their practice paces.
It was a timely question, for the Mustangs Were still licking their wounds from a 62-44 defeat by Plymouth Friday night in which the Northville basketball squad never quite seemed to click
Behind from'the start, the Mus-. langs appeared jittery and un
sure throughout the game except for a brief third-quater spurt.
Northviiie played Plymouth on even terms (19 points for the Rocks, 17 for the Mustangs) in lhe third period, but other than that Piymouth ran away with the game. First quarter score was 10-6, while it stood at 24-16 at the half. The Rocks wrapped up the game with a 21-point total in the final period.
High scorer for Northville was guard Mac Bui-ns, who dumped in five field goals and two free throws for a total of 12. For Ply-moufli, forward Ken Calhoun Inalched Burns' output.
The Mustangs' accuracy left much to be desired as they managed to hit on only 23 percent of their shots.
"If we could have scored oh about 35 percent of tliom — as we did last'year — it cpuld havo been a different story," Johnston said.
The Mustang coach took no credit away from Plymouth.
"They just plain ran us rag-god," Johnson said, "Plymouth has about 10 men of equal ability, whereas we had to go with only 10 players on the entire team. .After awhile, Plymouth's ability to substitute and keep the
pressure on got the best of us." Johnston conceded that the
Mustangs were not in mid-season form. But once the jitters wear off and sureness of play comes to tlie squad', their play should improve, he added,
"We made a lot of mistakes," the Mustang coach said, ''but part of the loss was due to the defense Plymoutii used. We had been practicing a man-to-man defense, but for the first time in years they threw a zone-defense at us. And it worked."
The Mustangs this week were working hard in preparation for their opener against Hoily — and inciuded In the strategy was an offense keyed- against a zone defense.
"It looks as if our opponents will keep using that against us this year because of our height," Johnston said. "But if we can get ahead and make them come to us for the bail, so that the center is opened up, then liiaybe we wiii havo a bit of operating room."
"But with the center bottled up as it was by Plymouth, there isn't much we can do," Johnston added.
Northviiie will journey to Holly Friday night for its league opener, and then will meet West Bloom-field ne.vt Tuesday on their home court in the community building.

Some Parents Are Nol Grown Up
If I were to ask a teenager this question, "Are your parents good lo you?" the answer would be, "Yes, tiiey are.'' It I asked another question, "Are they too good
to you?" the response w o u l d coIne quickly, "Don't be facetious. I-Iow could parents be too good?"
Actually you've probably never given this Inuch thought. It's true that your parents have been on the giving side ever since you were born. A few crocodiie tears or a bit of high-pressure coaxing

A member of The Christian Science Board of Lectureship, Miss Poling will speak in Fourth Church of Christ, Scientist, 5240 West Chicago Boulevard at 8 p.m. Her subject will be "Christian Science: The Way to Holiness and Health."
Active in public education for a number of years. Miss Poling holds degrees from Arizona State college and has also studied at the University of (California at Los .Angeles and the University of Southern California. She became interested in Christian Science as a college student. She resigned from the teaching profession in il950 to devote her full time to the public practice of Christian Science healing.
always seemed to get you what you wanted. It is true that some people think you are spoiled or perhaps they look upon you as a weak youngsteL As far as you'I'e concerned, your good parents have been behaving like parents. They love you and ex-mipiify It.' Thre's nothing peculiar about that!
Hoav can you tell whether your parents are soft with you? Let us examine how the too-good parent acts.
First of all, mother won't permit you to do a fair share of work around the house, she wants you to have nothiivg but fun while you're young. She makes a sac-rificc when she perInits you to buy an extra party dress. She smiies when you mildly complain that your aiiowance is gone by Tuesday and 'gives you more money when dad isn't around. You tell your parenits that school is a tough grind even though you are carrying only two major subjects -and three very light ones. When they sympathize with you in this situation, they are soft indeed!
Coaxing won't make your Eng-iisii teacher give you a passing grade when your work doesn't entitle you to it. A prospective cmipioyer won't smile with you if you should decide to take the afternoon oiif because there's something you'd rather do than work. But with soft parents this sort of conduct will pay off.
I know that your parents be-

The bulk of church members give iittie more than pittances to keep their churches going, according to a copyrighted article in the November issue of "Changing Times", the Kiplinger Magazine.
The ovenwhelming majority of giving is on a $l-a-week basis, But many occasional church at-tonders contribute as little as $2 'a year for the support of churches.
Of the ten Protestant churches recciiving the greatest total contributions, Presbyterians (U.S.) gave the most, an average of $75.54 per member a year. Luthi-erans (Missouri Synod) Were next with $67.82 and Prc^yterians (U.S.A.), third, with an average member contribution of $61,47.
The other seven: Congregational Christian, $54.7-6; Protestant Episcopal, $51.84; L u t h e r a n (United), $50.25; Baptist (American Convention), $43.17; Baiptist (Southern Convention), $42.17; Methodist, $37,53;' and Disciples of Christ, $34.77.
lieve they're doing all these things for your welfare. They are what soci^ workers call pemiis sion parents. Perhaps your par-ents have had a real struggle in life. They had to work hard even to iget a high school education. Now their greatest desire is to see to it that you have all the good things they missed. So they want to make it easy for you.
But your parents being soft v/ith you is really handicapping you. Their life was all hardship. Yours is all comfort. But what you and every teenager needs is a balanced diet -to 'grow mentally strong, physically ifit and happy on. .America wiil always be a strong and secure nation so long as its famiiies are strong and secure. We all love America, just as we love your parents and your children, so do not be a softy.

The committee includes two representatives from each state mental hospital as well as two from Wayne county institutions. It was a dual role of elevating the status of mental health employees and improving the care of patients.
Three employees of Northviiio State hospital are members of the committee. / They inciudc vice-chairman Conrad Springer, who heads the union's local at the hospital, treasurer Nellie Bowen and Norine Leudtke.
In addition, committee members include Leonard Leudtke of the. Wayne County Ti-aining School and Glen Coleman of Wayne County Genei-al hospitai.

Model Train Exhibit Steals Show
The Soviet - sponsored 1955 "World Youth Festival" in East Berlin -went floooy when thousands of the Reds hustled over to see an American model train exhibit set up Iby West Berlin's mayor as a counter attraction.
The fourth annual Ford Ro-tunda Christmas Fantasy, one of the largest and most elaborate Yuletide shows in America, was opened to the public in Dearborn recently.
The 1956 exhibit fills the entire Rotunda. The center is entirely occupied by the Nativity scene, with life-size figures of Mary and Joseph, the Christ child and the Wise men of the East. Anunal figures aiso are full scale.
The religious theme of the show is carried out further by a simulated cathedral facade at the east entrance of the Rotunda center court. Visitors enter the Nativity scene through the cathedral doors.
Carillons in the top of the 40-ft. cathedral spires ring at intervals, and recorded Christmas music in stereophonic sound comes from choir lofts occupied with mannequin singers.
The Rotunda theater this year features continuous showings of
Mickey Mouse movies in cinemascope.
More than 1,600 dolls which have been dressed' by members of the Ford Girls' club for later distribution to u n d e r p r 1V i leged children, fill a portion of the Rotunda perimeter court.
Other attractions include a barn dance performed by animated oharacters dressed as Santa Claus' helpers, and a merry-go-round with toy tractors hitched to reindeer.
Tho west side at the Rotunda display court is occupied by lifelike characters of fairy tale—Wee Willie Winkle, Puss-in-Boots, Robin Hood, Hansel and Gretel and the famous cow jtunping ovijr the moon,
The Rotunda is open from 8:30 a,m, to 9 p,m, weekdays and Saturdays, and from l p,m. to 9 p.m. Sundays. Tlie buiiding closes from 3 p.m. Christmas Eve until Wednesday, December 26.

Tills is llic time of yeai' when carbon monoxide deciares open season on human beings, Nortiiviile and Novi residents wei-e warned tliis week.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous and silent Itiiler, tho Michi-gan Department of Health ad-vised. It sneaks up on its victlIns and suffocates them before they realize they arc being attacked.
Accidental deaths from carbon monoxide poisoning show a sharp increase when the weather turns coid, tho iiealth department said. One reason for the seasonal upsurge is the habit — often fat-al — some people have of running their car's engine inside the garage witii the garage doors ciosed.
Other leading causes of accidental carbon mono.\ide poisoning are faulty mufflers and tailpipes on cars and trucks, improper venting of 'home space heaters, and improper ventilation of factories and workshops.
Carbon monoxide creeps up silently because it can't be seen, smelied or tasted. Besides being odoi'less and eoioriess it has no irritating and tiicreforc warning effect on tho nose, throat or eyes.
CaI'bon monoxide is formed whenever materiais containing carbon are incompletely burned because ot insufficient oxygen. Coniinon fuels containing carbon ai'e coal, gasoline, natural gas, oil and wood.
If the amount of carbon mon oxide in the air being breatlied is small, a person may notice a tight feeling across the forehead. This is foiiowed by a throbbing iieadache, dizziness, a flushed face and redness of the eyeballs. The person may become sick enough to Vomit.
Finally he passes out and, if he continues to breathe the gas, dies.
If the carbon -monoxide concentration in the air being breathed is high, death can result in .a few minutes and without warning symptoms.
Carbon monoxide enters the body through tho lungs and is absorbed by red blood cells in preference to o.vygen, which the blood cells normally carry to the tissues to sustain life. Thus car
bon Iiionoxido actually kills by suffocation. Persons found unconscious from
carbon monoxide should be carried into the fresh air. A doctor should be caiied immedialeiy and artificial respiration started. The patient's clothing should be loosened and he should be kept warm. It will help to rub his hands and feet.
If lie regains consciousness bo-fore a doctor arrives he shouid be kept at rest. Many persons have died because of trying to resume normal activities too quickly after being' overcome by carbon Wiono.vide. Medical treatment fol-iowilig non-fatal cases of poisoning may last four or five weeks./
Carbon (monoxide poisoning can be avoided by following a few simple rules, the health department said. These include:
1. Open the garage doors be-fore starting a car inside a garage.
2. Check the muffier and tailpipe of your car or truck for leaks. In winter, drive with at ioasl one window .partially open. It is particularly important to open windows when parking with the engine running.
3. Vent all space heaters to the outside.
4. Always ventiiale a room in which a gas space heater is being used.
5. Don't burn propane or butane gases in stoves designed for natural gas, or vice versa.
6. Chock furnaces annually for leaks and poor fittings.
7. In factories and other indoor work areas, take air samples frequently.
In guarding against this unseen kiiicr, the health department said.
It is better to be conscious about carbon monoxide than unconscious from carbon monoxide.

The debaters who participated for Northville high school were Lillian Zinicker, Becky Coolman, Sandy iStrasen, Bill Chizmar, Phyllis Buon-ticonto, Chuck Hix, \i$ Kathy Fariey, Diane Luchlway,ifc. Claire St. John, Fred Sch-wartz, irj David Nash and Marianne King.' '

A dance, aptly named the "Basketball Bounce" followed the opening basketball game between Northville and Plymouth last Friday nighrt.
Plymouth,, however, beat the Mustangs and (the "Basketball Bounce" flattened' out at the start. But soon the student band playiiig at tlie dance consoled the low spirits of the team and students.
Every so often, a 'Ibang'' echoed throughout •the -gym, mingled with the music o.f the band. It's becoming a custom to burst all balloons used as decoraition for dances.
The dance Was sponsored by the senior class in the old gym in the high school building. There Will ibe more dances of the same
• nature throughout the basketball season.
B A L M Y DAYS LAST F A L L were fine for sitting outdoors at noon hour, but Northville high school students nowadays must find other ways of spending the hour. Tltis is one reason they think a new high school — with noon-hour facilities — would answer a lot of their problems.

Edward E. Wood, instructor and counselor of the Detroit board of education from the Lawrence Institute of Technology, recently visited Northville school.
His purpose was to talk with all students mlerested in entering courses in engineering after gi-aduation.
The Lawrence Institute, located at Ten Mile and Northwestern highways, is a small college and has many advantages for the students in this area who are Interested and plan on going into en-gineerig. Wood said.
Wood pointed out that the college facilitated every phase of engineering Avilh its college of engineering, industrial management program and the technical institute.
Students may attend evening course if preferred, but it was stressed to attend day classes if possible because of the over-crowded evening classes.

The second marking period of the school year has ended for junior and senior high school students.
There were mixed feelings among the students as this milestone was passed, for the report cards will be handed out this Friday. Each teen-ager Is feeling either eager or apprehensive as the ''big day" approaches, for each is fairly sure of what the final verdict will be.
Many will be .proud and triumphant as they show their cards lo their parents, but many are already plannirig ways to try to minimize the importance of their not-so-good marks!
As the curtain rose last night on the senior play, "The Barretts of Wimpole Street", the audience saw not only an invalid Elizabeth Barrett and a concerned Doctor Chambers, but also a small, black cocker spaniel.
This canine show-stealer is christened Cinderella Maltby I and is three years old. Her owner is Allan Maibby, a gI-aduate of Northviiie high schooi,
Cinder, as she is called for shoiit, played the part of "Flush", Eiizaiboth Barrett's pet dog. It is an important role, for "Flush" was one of the few real comforts to Miss Barrett during her
long years of illness. Cinder - alias - Flush was a
source of amusement and distraction to the seniors as they rehearsed because of her tendency to whine 'pitifuiiy for ber Inaster or to leap suddeniy out of her basket in the midst of a scene. For tiie most part, however. Cinder was a i-eguiar trouper, and the senioi-s felt she added greatly to the interest and enjoyment of their 'production.
"Tho Barretts of Wimpole Street" will be presented^ complete with dog, again at 8 p.m. in the Community Building tonight.

MISSING — 23,000 Miciijgan Veterans! Tiiat's tiic number who have yet to appiy for their state Korean bonus.
Maj. Gen. George C. Moran, state adjutant genei-ai, warns that the time is now growing short. According to tlie terms of the .net, form.ii application Ijiust be in tiic mails before Jiijdnigiit of March 6, 1957.
Except for stragglers, most of the Michigan bonus money is paid. General Moran states that payinents now total more than $56 million to some 204,170 veterans. There were 3,948 claims i-cjocted and 1,646 are still being pi'ocesscd.
When tho slate bonus act first took effect, 14 Army officers and 177 civil service employes were needed to handle the avaianch of claims. Now oniy one officer and 14 civiiian empioyes remain on the staff.
About 35 40 50 claims are received weekly. At this rate only some 700 wiil .bo I'eceived by the March 6 dealinc. The question reiiiains: wliere are the 22,300 other eligible vetci'ans?

"CHRISTINAS TREE Boulevard," a sli'ctcii of US Highway 27 in Otsego County, is once again open for a one month season that wiil provide an ultimate S5 miiiion ci'op and happiness in thousands of homes throughout the state.
Ordinarily a noI'mal part of the stale highway system, Christmas Ti'oe Boulevard gets its name fi-om the many trucker's depots that once each year set up shop, stockpiling the. sweet-smelling greenery that Inoans Christmas throughout southern Michigan and parts of Ohio and Indiana.
SoIne 1,350,000 trees -make up the 1956 crop. By December 14 most will be in city lots or already reaching homes for decoration.
While ihe selling season is shoi't — approximateiy one month — it is the result of long years of hard work in a risky business. A scotch pine Iiiay bring around $1.75 at depots, but first it must survive eight years of weather, insects and fire.
That $1.75 isn't all profit either. Such expenses as taxes, spraying, cutting and trucking costs must be deducted first. And there is no accurate guide to anticipate itho market in advance. Some years, supply can't begin to meet the demand. Other years the market may be glutted with trees.
The Yuletide tradition tha-t makes the Christmas tree an important part of every home, also makes a valuable annual crop for Michigan.
9 * * THE "BOILER ROOM" sales
men are busy again In Michigan. Latest story comes from Grand
Rapids where they soid Inore than 100,000 booklets supposedly "for" Kent county civii defense. Now the complaints are roiling in to the city's Better Business Bureau.
A boiler room salesman gets his name from the operation he carries on — usuaiiy from a temporary oJifice using a telephone to make all contacts. In the trade they're called "phonemen."
I His jiiethod follows a siIiiilar pattern wherever he sets up op orations. First he finds a civic o:-ganization or some legitimate group who wants to raise money for a worthy cause or promote a worthwhile projects. He promises the gj-oup lie will do the job "pI-ofessionally" and raise moi-e money than could be obtained otherwise. The ginwiick: ho gets a percentage of all tlie money pledged.
Next step is to start telephoning. It Inay be calls to merchants to "sell" advertising or it may be to the generai public asking for "pledges" of Inoney for the worthy cause. Phonemen use the name ot the organization freeiy and drop names of well known local personages to warm-up their "victims".
They collect their povconiage as soon as they finish, move on to another town and leave the civic group to collect all the "pledges" as well as tlic woes that foilow. In the case of pledges, many groups learn to their soITOw that they have a difficult time collecting the money once tho professionals ai-e gone,
The Civil Defense booklet in Gi'and Rapids is a typical exam-pic. Tiierc, they promised that
the book would be "local" in nature and assuiTed officials that no boiler room tactics would be used.
They followed up their "promises" by selling 600 local meI-ch-an-ts 150 of the books at $49,50 for distribution to custoIners, Each manual ivas to have the merchants name on it.
Instead of providing the booklets, iiicrciiants received 150 stickers to disti-jbute. Customers had 'to send to a firm in Illinois for the book. When it was received, the oi'iginai mailing sticker with the merchant's name was stuck to the book to fulfill the promise of the "name imprint".
Of course, if not all 150 orders were mailed in, the Illinois company didn't have io apply that many manuals.

What's your best defense against the piionemen? The Better Business Bureau urges common sense caution.
Know the organization or charily requesting the donation. If you are a merchant, be careful of special advertising schemes. When you have doubts, a call to your iocal BBB, -Chamber of Comiiiei'ce or newspaper may keep your money out of tho "phonenien's" pocket.

From the looks of things, D. M , Parkinson has Won his bat-tie to get something done about a drainage problem that has plagued him and his neighbors for the past eight months,
State highway officials announced this week that they plan to construct a large culVert — actually a small bridge — under the new Brighton - Farmington expressway near Tait road.
The new culvert is expected to correct a situation that left the property of Parkinson and other residents of TatiJt road under water several times during the sum-mer.
Parkinson bad complained to " various state higliway and Oak-
land county road officials during recent months, but had no definite results until writing to Michigan Governor G. Mennen Williams.
WJUiams' legal adviser turned the maWer over to state highway conmiissioner Charles Ziegler three weeks ago and by this week plans had been drawn up for the new culvert.
A highway department spokesman said the cost of the project will come from expressway funds and will not be assessed to residents of the area.
It was exipected that contracts Would be let this week and that construction could start sometime
-."ioon. Target date for completion
is sometime in April, according to the spokesman.
Construction will be handled by the Oakland county road commission.
According to commission engineer Leon Belknap, the cudvert wiii be lo feet wide and eigJit feet high and will cross from one .side of the double-ribbon expressway to the other.
At present, only two small corrugated iron tubes handle the water flow.
Pavement has not yet been laid over the site and a highway department spokesman said the opening will not be paved until the new culvert Is constructed.
Supervisor Frazer Staman also had contacted county and state officials in Parkinson's behalf and had been unable to get definite action until the highiway department's announcement t h i s v/eek. M one point, Staman suggested that Parltinson get a court order to stop work on the expressway until the inadequate di-ainage was cleared up.
