Two Ovid area youths escaped injury Saturday night when their car plunged into the Maple River and sank under 8-10 feet of water.
The youths, Matthew Smith, 16, and Tjm Toth, 15, madeit to the road and were uninjured. Chief Homola of the Ovid Police Dept. donned

Shoe repair is not lost art thanks to Joe VanRooyen
*5i
By Patrice Hornak
v
.
Special Feature Writer
"Vellt hello, how are you?" greets Joe VanRooyen in his rich
Dutch accent as customers enter his shoe repair shop, located on N.
Clinton Street in St, Johns.
• Joe has been in the shoe business since he was 14 years old. In his
Hometown of Heemstede in the Netherlands, he attended a
vocationalschool, much like a college, for 6years to learn the ar.t of
shoe construction", shoe repair and orthopedic aids for people who
have troubled feejt.
Now, at the age of 50, he owns his own shoe repair shop which has
been inqreashig in business since he opened it about one and onehalf years ago.
He is proud of his business, and should be, as he works hard and
adeptly at his trade. He keeps abreast of the newest methods to
"repair .the ever-increasing and ever-changing shoes made of
plastic, he knows the insides of the shoe like most of us know how to
spell our names, and he likes people - friendliness is one of his
finest virtues.
brought into Joe's shop to be repaired every week. Possibly the
large volume of business is attributed to the fact that this is the omy
shoe repair shop in Clinton County. But, people also know that tne
workmanship is good and residents of surrounding counties are
known to bring their work to Joe's shop as well as local residents.
It usually takes about a week to have a shoe repaired, but in
emergencies, Joe has been known to work in the evenings and get
the shoe repaired quickly,

Common repairs, according to Joe, are putting new soles ana

boots, adds new cushions, repairs arches, dyes shoes, and fulfills,
}
prescriptions for special orthopedic shoes.
••'
'
HE HAS COME A LONG WAY
As already mentioned, he grew up in the Netherlands and was
licensed as a shoe repairman and shoe constructionist over in the
"old country." When World War II broke out, he fought for the
freedom of his country until it was occupied by the Germans and he
was sent to various concentration camps about Europe.
"Veil, after the war, I decided to start a new life," says Joe. He
immigrated to the United States in 1955 and has lived here ever
since.
"There is no better country than the United States. You can not
even imagine," he says emphatically with no reservations. "It may
not be perfect, but we can talk about the President and not worry
about being picked up by the Gestapo."
%>
"I AM JUST THANKFUL to be in this country," he adds.
After coming to America, he lived in Holland, Michigan, like
many other Dutch people do when they first emigrate. He worked
at several different occupations in Holland and finally moved to St.
Johns to manage the former Miller-Jones Shoe Store, now known as
Haddon's Shoe Store.
He managed the shoe store for 11 years, worked at Rehmann's
Clothing Store and when he learned of the shoe repair shop being
for sale, he got excited. He bought! the business and, as he puts it, "I
f inalh/got a chance to get back towhat I really wanted."
THE SHOE REPAIR BUSINESS
VanRooyen's Shoe Store is a fairly busy place. Joe opens shop
between* 8:30 and 9 a.m. and closes at 5:30 p.m. on Mondays
through Fridays. Saturdays he is open until noon, "so he can relax
and maybe dosome fishing," adds his wife, Carolyn.
Carolyn works with her husband while the children are at school.
The VanRooyen's have 10 children, three of whom are married, one
in college and six who are still living at home.
Carolyn assists customers, does some stitching and does the
paperwork, but the business and the knowledge of the shoe business
is all Joe's.
(
He can take a shoe apart in a matter of moments. He knows the
insides of the shoe, knows the make-up of the shoe and knows how to
make the shoe feel like new again.

GENERALLY, AMERICAN-MADE shoes are the best made
shoes in the world, according to Joe, who has seen lots of shoes in
his life. He confides mart the craftsmanship of the U.S. shoes is
much better and the materials follow suit.
Also, in the United States, shoes are made in various widths,
ranging from A to E. In European shoes, there are no widths and,
"You just ha ve to hope it fits," says Joe.
"The shoe is a remarkable product," he states. People walk
about 5 to 6 miles a day on the average and according to information released by the Shoe Institution, an average 150-pound
person carries 3,000 tons a day on his or her shoes.
THERE ARE 220 OPERATIONS in making a shoe, and today it
would cost approximately $300 to have one pair of shoes made from
scratch as opposed to the assembly-line method which produces
shoes for $20 or more.
The $20 shoes will not be the same quality of shoe, by any means,
but it is a good shoe, and it should be taken care of properly, says
Joe.
"Taking proper care of a shoe can double its life," says Joe adding, "you should polish your shoes not just for appearance."
People should also be aware that backaches, muscle spasms, and
sore legs can be caused by improper shoes and thus foot care
products are also important, as well as the shoe care products.
BESIDES THE SHOE REPAIR BUSINESS...
Approximately 50% of Joe's business is repairing shoes. The
other 50% is sales.
At the shoe shop, he sells men's work shoes, sport boots such as
hunting boots, men's house slippers and tennis shoes. Except for
the tennis shoes, all are made of leather.
Joe also has located within his shop a modest collection of old
' shoes, one pair dating back to 1870, and antique equipment once
used to make and repair shoes. The shoe profession is approximately 4,000 years old and Joe is fascinated with its history,
as well as its mechanics.
Yes, Joe is fascinated with the shoe business and people are
fascinated with Joe. It takes a special person to be the city shoe
repairman and Joe is thattype of special person.

TRENDS IN SHOES
Joe has seen the emergence of the "plastic" shoe since he first
began his practice many years ago in the Netherlands.
"Particularly in ladies' shoes, there have been a lot of plastic
shoes," says Joe. The shoes are held together with glue, some shoes
are made with cardboard and as Joe says, "Sometimes you can't
repair them."
Joe asks visiting shoe repair products salesmen, however, about
new methods of repairing plastic-made shoes. He has purchased
some specially-designed cement that was developed about 2 years
agoand is able to save some of the shoes.
"However, if it (the shoe) was made in Taiwan," warns Joe,
"you can forget it!"

CLINTON COUNTY NEWS, ST. JOHNS, MICHIGAN,
Redwings wrap up
West Central title
ST. JOHNS - St. Johns,
shaking off some recent
defeats, turned in a strong
performance against Hastings
Friday night to clinch the 1976
West Central basketball title.
The Redwings defeated
Hastings 91-77 and received'a
little help from Charlotte in the
meantime.
Charlotte, uncontested for
last place in the league, couldn't
have picked a better time to win
only their 2d conference game
of the season.
The Orioles knocked off 2d
place Ionia in a 53-44 upset that
eliminates the Bulldogs from a
shot at the conference title.
As it stands, St. Johns finishes
the conference season with a 6-2
mark and 11-5 overall while
Ionia is 4-3 in league play and
10-6 for the season.
In Friday's victory over
Hastings, the task was not as
easy as the score might > indicate.
Hastings charged out in front
at the beginning of the game,
but St. Johns quickly took
command and the lead.
However, at the end of the
first quarter, the score was still
knotted 24-24.
That's when the Redwings got
hot and poured in 35 points to
Hastings' 18 for a 59-42 lead at
the end" of the half.
But, it wasn't easy sailing yet.
Hastings put on an offensive
show of their own in the 3d
period and tied the score at 67-67
going into the final period of
play. Hastings scored 25 points
in the quarter, while Redwings
notched only 8 points on the
scoreboard.
But, then came the final
quarter and the return of the
Redwing offensive attack.
St. Johns poured in 24 points
Carl Bashore hauls down a Redwing rebound against Hastings.
and held Hastings to 10 to wrap
up the game and the league
championship,
Mark Geller led the scoring
for the Redwings with 24 points,
10 of those in that crucial 2d
period when St. Johns scored -35
points.
Reserve center Dave Martis,
coming in when Carl and Jerry
Bashore found themselves in
foul trouble, turned in an 18point scoring performance. He
also stung Hastings with 10
points in the 2d period.
Also in double figures were
Jerry Bashore with 13, Keith
Haske with 12 and Wayne
DeDyne with 10.
The junior varsity Redwings,
in a close battle, downed
Hastings 65-63.

Life can deal cruel blows in some unexpected
manners.
While reading the Sunday paper, I discovered to
my horror that our home is "cliche."
The discovery was made while reading an article by a woman who professes to be an expert in
interior decorating.
Included in the article were listings of home
decorating "ins" and "outs."
After reading that some of our wallpaper is
"out" because it is a "cliche" I read further. After
all, in one's home, one should avoid being ".cliche"
like the plague. .
The woman explained that flocked wallpaper is
"out" and a "cliche."
For crying out loud, we've been wallpapering
the bathroom with flocked paper and it's not even
completed. You mean to tell me, before we can get
the last strip up, guests are going to come in, see
the wallpaper, run from the house and whisper to
all the neighbors, "They have cliche wallpaper."
To my further chagrin, as 1 read further, plants
are a no-no in the modern home.
Well, Madam Decorating Expert, you try telling
that to my wife as she walks around the house,
watering can in hand, chatting with all the plants.
She seems to be a firm believer in the "talk to
the plants and they'll grow" theory.
One reason printed in the article for not having
plants in the home is that they belong outside.
That may be, but the argument won't hold water
in a home where someone walks around the house
consoling all her plants when we play the Kingston
Trio singing, "Where Have All The Flowers
Gone?" '
But, alas, it seems our flocked wallpaper and
house plants are destined to be cliche.
That isn't to say we're going to discard them in
the interest of good taste.
Heavens no. We have other aspects in our home
that are from cliche to justify keeping our flocks
and flowers.
Take the kitchen, for instance. While others may
decorate their kitchens with cliehed displays of
Edwards
antique cutlery or wooden utensils, ours is accented with a free-flowing stack of basic black and
white newspapers atop the refrigerator. That,
gently, instills an informing feeling and, yet,
allows the spirit of the kitchen to possess an exciting quality in wondering when the stack of
papers will come crashing to the floor. Cliche? Not
on your life.
Speaking of cliche. What of coat closets? Since
closets were invented, people have been making
them cliche by hanging coats in them. In our
household, we add a touch of the unusual by
depositing coats and sweaters on a stair landing
and reserving the closet for more sophisticated
and contemporary uses. We use them for storing 3
non-working vacuum cleaners, badmitton
racquets without strings, gloves or socks without
mates and hangers untouched by the unfeeling
habit of civilized societies to encumber them with
burdens of clothing.
But, avoiding the cliche does not end in the interior. When we avoid the cliche, we go all the
way, no cliche intended.
Our exterior decorating also reflects our distate
for the cliche.
We feel the use of yard working and gardening
tools has long taken on cliche appearances.
For some reasons, they appear utilitarian. To
avoid that rakes, shovels, lawn mowers etc.
remain comfortably reclining against the house to
provide the proper civilized motif.
To move them for actual use, on the other hand,
would again be an exercise in the cliche.
For that reason, they are never moved or used
for their intended purpose removing us forever
from the cliche of mowing the lawn, shoveling
snow, raking leaves and the like. When one is not
cliche, one must be thorough.
After thinking about it, our cliche wallpaper and
plants may keep us out of Better Homes and
Gardens, but our home decorating talents may
open up a whole new source of income as advisors
to other homeowners. It's easy once you get the
hang of it.

On their return trip home, the
Kelleys stayed overnight at
Tannehill State Park in
Alabama. ,
The'old Tannehill Ironworks,
birthplace of the Birmingham
Steel Industry, was targeted
destruction as, Union troops
thundered into Alabama during
the closing months of the Civil
War.
The Kelleys found this very
interesting as the three furnaces, a major confederate
supplier, produced more than 20
tons of heavy ordnance a day,
including cannon balls, gun
barrel and all the munitions of
war.
Torches also were set to rows
of more than 100 slave houses
where more than 60t> slaves who
worked the furnaces and
charcoal pits, were quartered.
In 1969, the state of Alabama
ordered its restoration as a
shrine to the Alabama Steel
Industry with further instructions to open a State Park
site. It was back in 1829 when
these furnaces were working.
Mr. and Mrs. Kelley enjoyed
their five-week trip, especially
the historic sites in1 this
Bicentennial Year, but they
were also very happy to be back
home on the Maple River, west
of Elsie.

Rochester Colony, once trie
village of Mapleton and later
changed to Duplain, is a small
community located six miles
southwest of Elsie nearby the
wandering Maple River.
It was designated a Michigan
Historical Site Number 83 about
five years ago when a marker
was placed between the 121year-old Duplain United
Methodist Church and the
Friendship Park which came
into being nearly a century later
in one of the oldest settlements
in Clinton County.
The historical marker gives
the following early history of
the Rochester Colony:
In 1836 a 'Jtochester, New
York, association, purchased
land here and by winter several
families were settled in newly described today as a combuilt log homes. Methodist munity complex,

(CONRAIL) network. The
reorganization included plans to
abandon approximately 1,300
miles of rail lines in Michigan.
In, order to prevent this,
Spaniola explained, the
Legislature last year passed
bills to allow the Department of
State Highways and Transportation to preserve, maintain
and up-grade rail service. This
is known as' the Phase II
Railroad Plan.
"Michigan cannot afford the
railroad cutbacks proposed
under the federal reorganization plan," Spaniola
said. "The state is dependent
upon continued rail service to
meet the needs of industry and
agriculture and to encourage
industrial development in
Michigan. Transportation
problems affect all of the people
of the state."
He'said'that, in working with
the Department of State Highways and Transportation to
implement the Phase II
Railroad Plan, the special
House-Senate committee will
recommend legislation it feels
is necessary to carry out the
plan.
^The House members .of the
special committee were appointed by House Speaker
Bobby D. Crim (D-Davison).

great place to get together with
their friends for a picnic.

Letter to the Editor:
Senate Bill No. 1173, a bill to
change the state fiscal year
from July 1 to October l/was
passed in the Michigan State
Senate on February 2.
I voted "no" on the passage of
Senate .Bill No. 1173 because in
no way does, this piece of paper
contribute to the solving of then
State> fiscal problems^ Jh, no ,
way can you juggle the books
and manufacture money tb
cover a deficit It is just that
simple.
Not one person in this
chamber or the Executive
Office should close his eyes to
reality. You all know the logical
maneuvers would be to cut the
big three: Education aid/
welfare and mental health.
Those account for 80% of the
state budget However, this
would not be politically ex, pedient at this time. You also
* could argue this has been done,
but I question "paper cuts" for
the sake of a balanced budget.
Budget cuts should be based on
sound and'logical approaches not because they represent the
largest expenditures - and
these expenditures should be
tied to accurate and honest
revenue projections, not wishful
thinking.
Wishful economic thinking
and with it overspending has led
you to this position of "book
juggling" today and for the
years
ahead.

Many years ago Gypsy Smith,
a well known evangelist, conducted a revival crusado In
Boston. A t the
close of~the services many people crowded around the evangelist wanting to
have the opportunity to shake
his
hand. A
To date Clinton County has
reached 82% of its goal for the
1975 Christmas Seal campaign," reported Ford Ceasar,
Lansing, president of the
Central Region of the Michigan
Lung Association. The county
goal is $7,000.
Christmas Seal campaign was
launched, the rate of tuberculosis has been going down,'"
said Ceaser. However, other
lung diseases are becoming
more widespread because of air
pollution, urban living and more
smokers," he added.
The goal for the Central
Region of the Michigan Lung
Association comprised of
Barry, Clinton, Eaton, Gratiot,
Ingham, Ionia, Livingston, and
Montcalm counties is $113,700.
90.1% of the regional goal has
been reached thus far.
Thfe- fiscal year of the
Michigan Lung Association
closes on March 31, 1976, and
Christmas Seals are the main
source of income for the
organization. Money contributed is dispersed for
community services, public
health education, patient services, and professional
education and training.
"Although Christmas Seals
have been around since 1907,
misconceptions have still been
built up around them," said
Ceaser. He explained that there
are two misconceptions, First,
many people think they are
expected to contribute to
Christmas Seals
before
Christmas. The second is the
belief that their money goes
only to fight tuberculosis, r
"From the time the' "first
mother brought her little 5
year old down to snake hands
with the famed evangelist, but
the little boy kept his fist
closed tight. "Son, there are
many people waiting to shake
hands with me. Hurry, give me
your hand," The little boy
didn't open his hand, Finally,
smiling, the evangelist took
the tight closed
fist and
pried it open, In the palm of
the hand were three marbles.
What an Illustration of many
grown up "boys" who are allowing some of the playthings
of this life to keep them from
grasping the hand of God for
redemption. It may be pride.
It may bo their business. It
may be some secret sin. None
of which are worth sending
their soul to hell and keeping them out of heaven. If you
are not a Christian, will you
examine the excuses you have
been making for not yielding
to tha Saviour? I plead with
you to cast them from you
and turn to the Saviour before
it is everlastingly too late. Let
us help you t o know the
Saviour.
"No
contributions to
Christmas Seals will be too
small or too late to help Clinton
County combat respiratory
diseases during the coming
year," said Ceasar. Contributions ' can be sent to the
Michigan Lung Association,
Central Region,' 403 Seymour
Ave., Lansing, Michigan, 48914.

Farming and 4-H - - - in Clinton County
EAST LANSING-If some
salesman shows up at your
farm, or you read literature
extolling chemicals that con*
dition soil, be cautious.
"Michigan is being inundated
by peddlers of miracle products
making claims ranging from
ability to improve soil condition
to increasing nitrogen fixation
and organic matter decomposition. Producers should be
extremely wary of such
claims," says Dr. Maurice
Vitosh, Michigan
State
University soils specialist.
"Many of these products are
sold on the basis of testimonials
which are not reliable sources
for unbiased evaluations. Many
claims or theories of action go
against all scientific basic
understanding of soils," he
adds.
Some of these products are
chemicals such as wetting
agents, penetrants, emulsifiers,
detergents, spreading agents
and dispersonts which are
supposed to Improve soil water
infiltration. Most all of these
compounds can be classified as
surfactants.
They were originally intended
to increase the penetration of
foliar applied herbicides,
defoliants and insecticides.
Presently, however, some
surfactants are being advertised to release plant
nutrients and stimulate plant
growth, but there is growing
evidence that they may also
inhibit growth.
Research on the ability of
surfactants to Increase water
infiltration has primarily
concerned soils that tend to
resist water absorption such as
the burned over forest soils. "It
may work to some extent on
these soils, but don't expect
them to work on our Michigan
soils," adds Vitosh. Under
normal Michigan agriculture
conditions, these water
repellent soils do not exist,
"Research has shown that
surfactants in general, have
had either no effect, or adverse
effects upon infiltration of.
water in our normal wettable
soils," he explains.
"Therefore, it is highly
unlikely that surfactants will
increase water infiltration on
Michigan agriculture soils. The
chances are just as good that
they may decrease water infiltration," Vitosh says.
Fanners who may be considering using a surfactant for
soil application should be
cautious. Try them if you must,
but check out the results very
thoroughly.

Jeanette Jacobs started as a 4-H leader last summer in the
vegetable gardening project. This winter she is showing 4-H'ers
how to make pine cone wreaths. The kids have collected many
different kinds of pine cones. She said "I enjoy doing crafts and
organic gardening, and I like to show kids how to do these things
too." Her first contact with 4-H was through her children who
joined a club in their community.
Jeanette and her husband, Lincoln, spend a great.deal of time
building their new home. They are doing all the work themselves
and it is quite a challenge for them. Mark, Linette, Kevin and
Kimberly, their children, get involved also. They live at 1500 E.

Report from the capitol
State Representative
,
hj Stanley Powell
It doesn't happen very often,
but for a change, the
Republicans and Democrats in
the House of Representatives
are in agreement on at least one
, issue.
The Democrats have introduced House Concurrent
Resolution 454, calling for a
timetable for adoption of the
State budget. I couldn't agree
with this concept more,
In fact, it has been the
Republicans for the past five
years who have advocated
'deadlines for passage of the
budget, and the Democrats are
just now coming around to the
GOP position.
I'm glad to see the Democrats
finally agree with us on this
,
issue. As long ago as 1971, we
Republicans introduced a
resolution setting up a
timetable for passage of the
budget, bills on time. But the
.. Democrats didn't agree with
our idea then, nor in 1973 or 1974
when we again made futile
attempts to pass a timetable.
Our most recent effort in this
direction was just last October.
During those years, final
passage.of the budget has been
delayed and one year it wasn't
passed until three and a half
months into the next fiscal year.
This plays havoc with many
state agencies and especially
our public schools which are
often left to guess as to what
their school aid funds might be.
I'm willing to do everything
we can to see that this budget
.'deadline resolution is passed by
the Legislature and that we
have a budget before the new
.fiscal year begins.
it looks as though that cost may
fall on the local units of
government because of the
state's critical financial
situation. The second reason is
that many seem to think that
the primary as it is now in
Michigan is not really
meaningful.
I'd be interested in hearing
your thoughts on the future of
the presidential primary in
Michigan.
HEROIN CRACKDOWN'1
We're in the process in the
House of debating six bills that
hopefully will give us the tools
to deal with heroin traffic in
Michigan.
The intent of the bills is to
crack down on the big drug
dealers in an attempt to curtail
drug traffic. Three major
concepts are dealt with in the
bills. One is mandatory sentences for drug dealersânother
is the use of wire tapping and
other electronic surveillance in
apprehension of drug dealers
and the third is the limitation of
good time in prison for heroin
dealers.
Some lawmakers are having
trouble accepting the portions
dealing with wire tapping and
electronic surveillance. They
say that such measures are an
invasion of privacy and have
been abused in our government
before. This would open the
door for repeated abuse, they
say.
There have been attempts to
separate the bills, which are tiebarred, meaning they must be
considered together. The
sponsor has chosen this way of
introducing them, and this
means they 1 all take effect

Thereare two reasons for this that we-face, we have speedy
thinking. One is that the process approval to making the
is very expensive and this year program permanent. •
The reservation system will
operate like it has in the past
two years with one change.
Reservations will have to be
received by the statepark where
the camper wants a space only
•15 days in advance of arrival.
Previously the reservation was
required to be received three
weeks prior to arrival.
To make a reservation the
camper fills out a simple form,
mails it to the state park where
he wishes a space along with a
$2 reservation,, fee and the
campsite-renewal fee for the
number of nights of the visit.
The minimum stay under the
reservation is four nights while
the maximum is 15 nights,
During the two-season test
period, 31,726 Michigan and outof-state campers reserved
space in our state parks. Use of
reservations increased'by 24
percent last year and the DNR
expects to confirm more than
22,000 reservations during the
May 1 to September 30 camping
season in 1976.
The law provides that no
more than half of the sites can
be reserved so there is space for
other campers on a first-come,
first-served basis.
However, 71,000 campers
were turned away from the
state parks last year because of
filled campsites, so you can see
it's to your advantage to make a
reservation before you go
camping.
RAW MINERAL WORTH
Michigan's raw material
output during 1975 rose to an all
time high of an estimated $1.2
.billion, an 18.7 percent increase,
over the previous year.
The estimate is based on a
year-end analysis of the U.S.
Bureau -of. Mines for the
Department " of Natural
Resources. The tincrease~~was
spurred by current inflationary
conditions and sharply increased
production of
petroleum and natural gas.
While Michigan led the nation
in production of peat and iodine
(Michigan is the sole domestic
producer of these), iron ore
continues as Michigan's leading
commodity in terms of value almost $340 million<of'Ihe .total

The DNR's Geological Survey
Division reported that the state'
ranked as a major U.S.
producer of chloride, lime,
gypsum, bromide, salt and
peat, all of which are classified
as non-metallic minerals.

February 26,1976
• Within hours after the earthquakes in Guatemala, survivors
were receiving used cothing,
much of which could
have once s been worn by
Michigan residents, including
items from^ the St. Johns
Seventh-day Adventist Community Service Center.
''This was revealed by W.M.
Buckman, of Lansing, director
of the* disaster relief services of
the Seventh-day Adventist
churches in Michigan and based
on a-telephone report he had
received from the church's
world "' headquarters
in
Washington D'.C.
,In;jt Howard Burbank, a
former Michigan minister, and
now Executive Director of the
Seventh-day Adventist World
Service (SAWS) said that within
four days after the initial
earthquake over $100,000 worth
in emergency relief had been
shipped ' to
aid the
Guatemalians. In addition 150
tons of food was made available
for immediate distribution by
SAWS and the Catholic church's
welfare organization. Adventists are feeding as many as
five "thousand persons twice'
daily under makeshift conditions in Guatemala City. One
relief official has reported that
"a situation approaching
panic" exists in areas becaue of
an extensive food' shortage,
Persons wishing to donate
items may take them to St.
Johns Center in the office of Dr.
R.L. Wohlers, 107 Spring, St.
Johns. Cash contributions may
be sent to the same address.
Three plane loads of supplies^
based upon' requests from
government and relief agencies, were flown to the stricken
country. They included 250,000
pounds of processed used and
new clothing, 350 tents-,
blankets, bandages, wire
splints, kettles and gas lanterns.
(Buckman indicated that all
excess "clothing received by
Adventistxhurches in Michigan
and not needed for local work, is
processed in area Community
Service Centers and shipped to
the denomination's eastern
welfare reserve depot. Last
year Michigan Adventists Sent
347,150 pounds of clothing to
New York. There it was readied
for immediate shipment to any,
place in the world and stored
until needed in disasters such as
the recent Guatemala tragedy*)

Sunday afternoon, February 8
with plans to stay at least a

Michigan Adventists will give
special emphasis to disaster
needs May 8-12. The annual
disaster relief offering will be
taken in all churches on May a
as part of a nation-wide drive to
raise $1,000,000. These monies
are held in trust and earmarked
for "emergency disaster'
relief". The following four days
Adventists will be preparing
additional supplies of used,
clothing for shipment to New
-York so their national*
warehouses will again be ready
to serve humanity- on a

Cash for additional necessary?
supplies is a current strong
need. Any person willing to
assist in this manner should
make their checks out to SAWSand mall it to that relief-agency

Honor Society in December,

amounted to 15,720 pounds of
glass recycled into new
products. The amount brings
the total glass recycled to date
from this project is 867,690
pounds. The snowy weather has
kept the amount down for the
last three months, so people are
urged to save their glass bottles
and bring them to the
fairgrounds on the next glass
collection date, March 6, which
will be handled by the Lowe

can be recycled, people are
urged to save for this project
instead of throwing it out to the
trash.

The toughest cleanser you can
buy may not be the best for
every job.
Some cleansers may do more
harm than good to your
bathroom fixtures - if the
cleansers are harsher than they
need to be. Here's a test to
check the hardness of your
cleanser:
You'll need two small, flat
pieces of' glass and your
cleanser.' Place one piece of
glass on a clean* flat surface,
and sprinkle the glass with
cleanser. Then put the other
piece of glass square on top of
the cleanser. Press down lightly
with your fingers and move the
top glass in circular motion. If
you can hear glass being cut,
your ,cleanser
contains
damaging abrasives. v
After 10 seconds,' clean off all
the cleanser and hold the glass
pieces up to a light. If'you can
see fine scratches, the cleanser
you used may ruin your
bathroom fixtures. It may
cause scratches when you clean
the fixtures covered with
porcelain enamel, which is also
glass.
Abrasive cleansers are for
special surfaces and stains. If
you use them every day, they
will dull fixtures, making them
difficult to clean.
So what can you use to get
fixtures clean: "Try plain old
detergent and water; rinse with
clear water," suggests Dr.
Anne
Field,
Extension
Specialist. "Or 'substitute a
solution of one tablespoon
trisodium phosphate in one
gallon of warm water to make
surfaces
shine
again."
TrisodiUm phosphate is usually
