“THE OLD NEWSBOYS”- In the December 2nd issue of Thc Plymouth Mail it was stressed that “although Old Newsboys are the guiding spirits of the movement,, members stressed thc fact that any man or woman in Plymouth who is interested in the welfare of thc poor will be welcomed as a member. There arc no membership fees or dues."

Today then, this issue of The Plymouth Mail and the other Detroit papers, which you may have bought, are the tangible results, and the money received for them, every cent of which will be used to provide a Merry Christmas for some underprivileged family, is reward enough for the time and labor cheerfully given by the Goodfellows df Plymouth.

THE OLD NEWSBOYS Barefooted often, and seldom well shod,

Observing the high and the lowlights of life,The highways and low-ways daily they trod,

In fair weather and cool, in storm and in strifeBut learning the hard way, the meaning of life.

Crying their wares in voice treble and keen,Murder and storm, tears, laughter and worth,

In alley and buildings, in good times and lean.Their marketplace, ever, the byways of earth.But learning the hardway, privation and worth.

Taking the blows that along the route^cameWith chin up and smiling, tougher than steel.

Losing a comer was all in the game,For pennies unearned might mearq a lost meal,But learning the hardway the temper of steel.

Do you, then, wonder as grown up and oldThey could not forget the kiddies in need,

Who might be forgotten and cheerless and cold,Faith unwavering, but heartsick indeed,But for those who learned the hardway of need.

So help them today, those newsboys of yore,Be goodfellows with them to make dreams true,

So thousands of kiddies, souls lonely and soreWill find faith again, through these newsboys and you,Who learned in the hardway, the ftghtway and true.In concluding this resume, we believe that no other city

of comparable size in the United States can equal Plymouth in civic endeavor and accomplishment.

This challenge is based not alone on what a city may do, such as successfully conducting community Christmas, Hobby Show, Sunrise Service, Picnic and Hallowe’en enterprises, but on the number of civic - minded citizens of all walks and conditions of life, who with sincere civic endeavor have given of their time and talents to make these affairs so enjoyable and successful. • 1

Plymouth, the “City of Homes” is also the “City of Community Consciousness.”

Community Picnic Proposal Gains Approval

Stanley CorbettPicked To Manage

July 12, 1938 the Civic Committee met again and in response to widespread approval by the citizens for a Community PicnicI selected a committee to handle; the complicated mechanism of such a venture. 1

Stanley Corbett, president of I the Chamber of Commerce, was ' requested to act as chairman, ' and Herald Hamill, William Pet-I tingill, Albert Gaydc, William j Rose, Kenneth Corey. William ’’ Wood, Harry Barnes, Harold An-; derson, Howard Ecklcs, David t "Galen, Irving Biunk, Stanford Bcsse, Mrs. Lynn Felton, Milton Jacobi and Mayor Henry Hondorp selected to assist him.

The date selected for Plymouth’s first Community Picnic was August 8, 1938 and on August 12 The Plymouth Mail reported the affair at length in the article below:

"Plymouth’s community picnic, attended by a crowd estimated at over 2000 persons, was so popular Monday that members of the Civic Committee received numerous requests that the citywide parly be held again next year.

“And was the picnic a success with the kids? Let the figures speak for themselves. Arno B. Thompson reported that the children consumed 1320 bottles of pop, 35 gallons of ice cream and 2640 cookies, all free. That would make any party a success where children arc concerned.

“But more than food was responsible for the entertainment which hundreds have praised as being so enjoyable. Probably most of the people didn’t realize it, but they created their own fun just by relaxing and enjoying a peaceful afternoon in the open with their friends and neighbors.

“That was exactly thc result' which members of thc Civic Committee, which sponsored the event, were striving to obtain.

Second Annual Xmas Party Planned

Now going back in order to write this history in chronological order, on October 4th the Executive Committee of the Civic Committee met and plans for the Second Annual Christmas Festival were discussed.

At this meeting Arno Thompson was instructed to act as general chairman of the 1939 Christmas Festival, and also at this meeting James Gallimore, Executive Chairman, was asked to contact the Commander of thc Myron Beals Post, American Legion, and the Ex-Service Men’s Club as to the feasibility of thc Civic Committee taking over the activities of the Old Newsboys’ Paper Sale to help finance the Community 'Christmas Festival.

Meetings.of the Civic Committee were again held October 12, at which time the cHiirman of the Christmas festival appointed Mrs, EJton Eaton as vice chairman, Mrs. George Chute, Floyd Eckles, Mrs. O. F. Beyer, Mrs. George Strasen, Henry Fisher, and Captain Elwin Alder of the Salvation Army, as an Executive Committee.

Also at this meeting the following sub-committees and their personnel were selected:

Committee in Charge of Older People—Mrs. J. D. McLaren, chairman; Mrs. W. B. Lombard, Mrs. Arthur Griffith, Mrs. Ruth Huston-Whipple, George Robinson.

Boy And Girl Scouts Gain Commendation

Following the two-section parade, with the younger children joining in with thc older ones at the city hall all the children trooped over to the Daisy Manufacturing company parking lot, where children’s movies were exhibited, prizes awarded, and plentiful refreshments served.

The entire program lasted nearly three hours, but ended near 9:00 p.m. so that none were kept up too late. The surprising thing about the Hallowe’en festival in thc estimation of many of thc officials was that it attracted about as many parents and other elders as it did children.

James Gallimore, chairman of the Civic Committee, executive group which sponsored the Celebration, issued an expression of thanks to the entire community for the responsive way in which residents helped to make the program a success.

Particularly to be complimented for the way in which the program ran off, he said, were those who gave wholeheartedly of their tirpe in working on committees to assure an evening of fun for the youngsters, and those who gave willingly from the pocketbook so that plenty of refreshments, entertainment, prizes, noisemakers and other incidentals could be provided.

The following articles in The. Plymouth Mail of July 15 and July 22 tell more graphically the story of a successful project:

“Plymouth residents weren't! fooling this week when they told friends, Til sec you at the crack of dawn Sunday.’

“A heavy turnout of local res- j idents and others from the sur-1 rounding area, neighboring towns j and Detroit are expected to at-1 tend, the city's fiirst annual sunrise services to be conducted at 5:00 a.m. Sunday.

“The sunrise rites, which will commemorate Plymouth’s 110th birthday as a Michigan settlement and the 105th anniversary i of the establishment of the first church here, will be conducted on the east side of Whitbeck road in Plymouth’s Riverside Park.

“Plymouth Boy Scouts will direct the traffic for the affair. This week a novel feature for the event was suggested by several families who intend to serve a picnic breakfast in the park after the sunrise-services proper.

“The services will be featured by an address to be presented by Dr. Merton S. Rice, of the Metropolitan Methodist church of Detroit, Dr. Rice is known widely throughout the nation and Mich- i igan particularly for bis ability' to capture and hold the interest! of an audience. " j

“The program will be opened, w'ith a call to worship by trump- eteers. The invocation will be delivered by Miss Susan Thurman, of the Unity Study group.

"The assembly will join in singing a morning hymn, the first! line of which is, ‘When Morning Gilds the Sky,’ after which the

'Rev. Robert North, of the Plymouth Nazarene church, will offer a prayer.

“The choir will sing The Heav- , ens are Telling,' by Haydn, assisted by the trio, composed of Mrs. James Sessions, Edwin Campbell and Carl Bryan.

‘Paul Zeller, of. Ann Arbor, will present a solo, ‘The Living God' by O’Hara. A scripture reading will be delivered by Capt. Elwin Alder, of the Salvation Army.

"Another hymn will be sung j then, ‘The Christian Life,’ which ■ begins ‘Faith of Our Fathers! Living Still.’ ,

“The Rev. Stanford S. Closson, of thc Plymouth First Methodist | church, will discuss ‘Plymouth | and its Churches’ as one of thc, principal features of the services.

“He will be followed by the I speaker of the day. Dr. Rice. The choir will join in an ancient spiritual, ‘Song in Praise of the Lord of the Heaven and Earth.’ The soloist will be Mrs. Maxwell Moon, of Plymouth.

“A hymn, ‘Blest be thc Tie that Binds,’ will precede the benediction, which will be offered by the'Rev. L. B. -Stout, pastor of the Plymouth Calvary Baptist church.

“Leslie G. Lee is director of the chorus and Lewis Evans is director of the brass quartet which will open the ceremonies.”

—Plymouth Mail, July 15, ’38.

. On Wednesday, September 30, i 1937 a group of citizens repre- senting all the patriotic, fraternal, service, women’s and church organizations of Plymouth met

Jin the city hall for the purpose J of coordinating all activities re- j lated to general community interest and as a clearing house for

I all organizations in the city that carry on charitable work.

I It was not intended that this i organization should take over the 1 work of any organization which i was already carrying on a defin- I ite charitable or civic activity, i but that it would assist and cooperate wim any of its affiliated

' organizations and by keeping records enable all to function

j more efficiently.The new group was named un

officially the Plymouth Civic , Committee, and its first act was i to elect the following as an ex- j ecutive committee to carry out | iti objective.

This committee was made up ' of Mrs. Sidney D. Strong as 1 chairman, and the following as members: Mrs. Ruth Huston-

1 Whipple. Miss Hildur Carlson, James Gallimore and Harold Anderson.

Its first civic function which seemed to be desirable was the taking over of an activity which in the past had been carried on by a small group of citizens interested in children, at their own considerable expense in time and money. This was the Annual Hallowe’en celebration originated by Captain Charles Thumme, Harry Lush of the Penniman- Allen theatre and Mr. and Mrs. Elton Eaton of The Plymouth Mail. These citizens with the help of small contributions from their friends provided the smaller boys and girls with free apples, doughnuts, and free tickets to a special show at thc Penniman- Allen theatre.

The Civic Committee, realizing the burden involved on these public-spirited citizens and realizing that every year more and more children were participating and making the undertaking a greater responsibility, promised to take over this activity as a (■omninnitj project.

A. a result, in 1937, the Civic Committee appointed a Hallowe’en Committee, composed of representative citizens who carried out and successfully entertained and distributed among 1250 children, apples, peanuts, candies and noisemakers, supervised a costume parade of children and distributed prizes for best, funniest and most original costumes.

"When morning gilds __skies, my heart awakening cries,’ sang nearly 1590 residents of Plymouth and nearby communities last Sunday morning at the first sunrise service ever held in this community.

“The big audience gathered in a beautiful section of Plymouth Riverside park just east of the Whitbeck road, saw the sun break through the clouded moming jiky as thc service opened when youthful trumpeters, located on distant hills and groves, gave forth the call to worship.

"Miss Susan Thurman gave the invocation and Rev. R. North of the Nazarene church offered prayer. The choir of more than 50 voices, under the direction of Leslie Lee of Northville, led in the singing of the hymns. Lewis Evans of Plymouth directed the

Dieting Should Be Done in PrivatePon’t Talk About Yoyr Calories, Do Something

By EDITH M. BARBERDEAR, when I think of the

v-' calories I am adding!” How often I hear an expression of this sort in the midst of a good meal.' My first objection to such a comment comes from the fact that I believe strongly that dieting should be done in private and not in public. And if you decide to break over for once, don’t talk about it!

My other objection arises from the fact that there is a popular misconception in regard to the word ’’calorie.” A calorie is merely a measure of the fuel value of food. Each one of us needs roughly about 12 hundred calories each day merely to keep the body machine running. For every activity of the day we must have an extra supply. If, however, we take more food and. Iherefore, produce more calories than we need for these purposes, the body stores the extra amount of food in the form of fat. All of us need a certain amount of this necessary, but much maligned, sub-

ce. Too much fat, however, is a burden which the organs of the body resent and which impairs our efficiency.

As all foods provide calories in varying amounts, our first thought should be for those which provide as well protein for building and repairing tissues and minerals and vitamins for regulating the body processes and protecting us from disease. We may then supplement with the foods which provide little else but calories.

A varied diet, containing milk, cheese, eggs, meat, plenty of fruits and vegetables, with a certain amount of butter or other fat. sweets and cereals provides health insurance.

Trapping-Good Legais In Wayne County,Big City Area

Not All Wildlife Is In Night Clubs, Warden Points Out

Wayne county, with a population of, roughly, 3,000 persons to the square mile, qualifies as a fairly important trapping area, with a large number of opossum, J raccoon, muskrat, mink and other pelts sold annually.

Wayne county has a population ’of nearly 2,000,000 in an area of 589 square miles, but most of

' the 2,000,000 aren’t aware that in ' the same county there is an abundance of wildlife—the kind

i that is found in woods and fields,. not night clubs.I They probably wouldn’t be 'surprised that there is only one game warden for the entire coun-

, ty, but there is plenty to keep ’ i that one conservation officer busy. He is Fred A. Eckhout.

I Mr. Eckhout told The Plym- 1 outh Mail this week that trapping is excellent in Wayne county this season, despite depredations of half-wilct cats and dogs, abandoned pets, which take an i

| annual heavy toll in the woods! and fields, and despite the annual ! slaughter of valuable fur-bearing j animals in Wayne county under

I the wheels of motor vehicles.Heavy catches have been re

ported, he said, by hunters and ; trappers of opossum, raccoon and muskrat with a fair number of mink kills. One trapper at Northville, he said, had taken in 60 muskrat when the season was only three or four days old.

The urban apartment dweller might be surprised to know also that there is a large number of commercial trappers in Wayne county in addition to the huge number of sportsmen who hunt, rabbits and other small game, I ducks and pheasants, Eckhout i said.

He declared that in the Plym-: outh-Northville area alone close: to 100 commercial trappers of1 fur-bearing animals are licensed.1 And they do pretty well without even considering the fact that they work within a few miles of the nation’s fourth largest city, Eckhout points out.

ROCK RESERVES SKIN PANTHERS IN DEBUT

A smashing victory over Redford Union’s Panthers presaged a successful season for the local high school reserves when that aggregations, led by diminutive Jack Wilkie, piled up a 39-8 margin at Redford on Wednesday, December 7. The superiority of the Rocks is aptly illustrated by the score at the half: 18-0. Jack Baker and Jim Birchall looked liked giants among their adversaries, and the score reflected it.

Ed Holdsworth recieved the honor of being the first Rock to score when he dumped in a dog shot after two minutes of play. Jack Wilkie followed this by converting two intercepted passes into a brace of goals. Robinson sandwiched a short shot between these, and the Rock total grew steadily.

At the end. of the first period the starting line-up of Holdsworth, Aluia, Wilkie, Robinson, and Hoffman was completely replaced by Johnson, Westfall, Baker, Birchall, and Dunham. This quintet raised the score to 18-0 by the end of the half. Redford Union played hard and furiously, but the Rocks played harder and more furiously than did Redford to build up their lop-sided margin.

Play during the last half, during which Fisher, Bloomhuff, Wilson, Butz, Blackford, and Erdelyi were introduced into the fray, was lax and slipshod. However. Plymouth’s lead grew as Erdelyi, Fisher, and Aluia hooped spectacular shots. The game ended with Plymouth scoring easily and pulling further out of

What’s the Answer?FINCH

YAWNING is an action caused by the nerves which connect with our lungs. When the air in our lungs is empty of the proper amount of oxygen required to maintain a healthy blood supply, the lungs immediately communicate that fact to these little nerves which in turn take the message to the brain. The brain transmits the emergency call to certain muscles which go to work and force one to open his mouth and take in a large supply of air with its clean, pure oxygen.
