Conventional
lighting on
Kennebec
County officials take office
The latest chapter in the
Kennebec Drive light mystery
was written Monday as the Village Council tentatively decided
that two conventional wooden
light poles will be constructed
on the unlit street—and plans
for decorative poles and under-grotmd—wiring—were "scrapped
as "preferential treatment."
Village President Lambert
Althaver reported that he had
contacted Southeastern Michigan Gas Co. and Detroit Edison.
The result of his contact
with Southeastern concerning
the possibility of gas lights is
that the project is too expensive.
According to Althaver, eight
15-feet high street-type gas
lamps would run $48,45 per
month for a two-mantle light.
This would be a monthly charge
of approximately $6 per month
for each resident on the drive.
A three-mantle gas lamp would
cost each resident about $7.
The normal monthly street
light payment in the village is
In addition to much higher
monthly rates, the gas lighting
would require an installation
fee of $2,217. This figure is
the cost of extending a gas
line to the Kennebec Drive area.
The above figures convinced
the council that gas lights are
out of the question, and a contact with Detroit Edison ruled
out ornamental electric light
poles with underground wiring.
Decorative metal poles and
underground wiring was suggested and found to be considerably more costly than
wooden poles and overhead
wires. Althaver asked a representative of Edison if the
rate difference could be charged
to the individual homeowners
in the form of a flat installation charge, so that the monthly
payment would not be so much
higher.
•Edison gave me a flat no,"
Althaver said. "Basically we
are back to the point where the
council has already authorized
lights, but the cost of special
lights is double.*

Truth is relative to the individual, Father Friske said.
Each individual has a different

religious educators must recognize this individuality.

Decoupage surfaces can be
wood, metal or glass.
The decoupage revival has
been inspired for the most part
by Marie Mitchell of Detroit's
Marie Mitchell Decoupage Center. Miss Mitchell's book, •The
Art of Decoupage,• explains
step-by-step how to become a
decoupeur.
The wood must be sanded
smooth. A foundation of stain
is applied, then a clear seal
before sanding and affixing any
type of design. A coat of satin
varnish is followed by nine
coats of gloss varnish.
The surface is then sanded
with No. 280 sandpaper and
soap suds. After this, the decoupeur alternates five more
coats of gloss varnish and five
sandlngs with No. 400 sandpaper. Three coats of satin
varnish are applied, and No.
400 sandpaper is again used
before two more coats of satin
varnish are applied. A mixture of pumice powder and raw
linseed oil, rubbed on with a
felt cloth provide the final luster
finish.
Several Cass City women
learned their decoupage from a
class taught at Caro High
School. Others have learned
from friends or by reading
"The Art of Decoupage.*

No living allowed in living room
BY JIM FITZGERALD
If I want to see a lucky man
this Christmas, I said to myself,
Our New Year hope for you: good health,
jjrcat pleasure and abundant prosperity . . Thank you for your loyal patronage.
CRESTWOOD LOUNGE
Caro
I just have to look in the mirror.
So I turned to the large mirror
which is part of the new, outrageously expensive bedroom
suite my wife snuck into the
house one day while I was at
work.
Which reminded me again
that this may be a man's world,
but they build the furniture for
women.
In the mirror I got a lH.-autiful view of my licit buckle.
With my usual trood nature,
I calumphed into the diiiiug
room, slamming doors and muttering, to peak into tho mirror
over the china cabinet.
"What is wrong with you
now'.'" my wife asked.
"Nothing," I said, 'except I
am looking for a lucky man and
I can't find him."
The second mirror was
better. I could see the third
button from the bottom on my
shirt.
• "I am only G feet tall," I
told my wife, "but I have to
kneel down to tie my ties in my
own Ix'droom. Kvery mirror
in this house is hung to tie
shoes by. Why is that'.'"
"You can see your face in the

"•That mirror is sup|x>sed to

put my make-up on."
"Goody," I said. "How many
men do you know who sit down
to tie thoir ties?"
"I wish you would buy .some
turtle-nock shirts," she said.
Bov.
In the cc. ner of our family
room is a l"Kit-up leather chair
which is known as "Daddy's
Chair." It is called this to
distinguish it from every other
stick of furniture in the house,
all of .'hich Ix'lnng to Mummy.
My chair was purchased 2
montliy after wo moved into the
house, which is a pretty long
tirn<-' to lean on the fireplace

in without hiring a divorce
lawyer.
Bui when I leave my chair,
it's similar to Godzilla calling
on The Little Women. One bathroom is purple, from soap to
tissue. The other is pink from
dinky towels to plastic ducks.
In the purple bath there's that
wicker chair which would mark
a man for life. There are also
wicker shelves, so help me.
To sit on the wicker chair, I
must park my head on the second
wickt.-r shelf.
I am not allowed to sit on
any of the living room furniture
until it is paid for. The newest
addition is a inarl>le«l-topped
coffee table bip enough for one
coffee
cup if you hold your
saucer in your lap. This tableis unique in that the marble
top slides off easily and falls
on your fool.
The first time this happened
to me, I was able to fr'.'t a
splendid view of my swollen
tot's in the tx'droom mirror.
As I sat there on the floor,
tii'ing my tie.
Onward and upward.

As the
New Year enters,
we pause to
tell our many
customers how much we
enjoyed serving
them all year. Our
sincere wishes
for a very happy
and healthy New Year!

A
Year's end summing-up:
My work diary says that I
wrote an average of 4 letters
a day in 1968. This was down
deliberately from an average
of 5 a day in 1967, and it is
one of my New Year's resolutions that the average will be
cut to 3 a day in 1969.
The majority of these letters
were -to~agents-(domestic and
foreign), editors, publishers,
and producers. Some of my
more impassioned prose was
contained in these letters.
An average of 4 letters a
day with an average of 300
words per letter for 365 days
equals 438,000 words.
In 1968 I wrote 50 pages and
an outline of a suspense novel
equalling 40,000 words (first
draft plus revision), and then
I wrote and sold the novel (two
drafts) for another 120,000
words. Total for the project:
160,000 words.
I wrote 50 pages and an
outline of another suspense

novel (2 drafts)equalling 40,000

I dug an unsold novel out of
the file and rewrote it completely (1 draft) for another
60,000 words. It has just gone
off to market.
I wrote and sold 13 short
stories ( 2 drafts) averaging
3500 words for a total of 91,000
words;
---I wrote 5 unsold short stories
(2 drafts)
averaging 3500
words for a total of 35,000
words.
I wrote 52 weekly newspaper
columns ( 2 drafts) averaging
500 words, equalling 52,000
words.
I wrote a dozen book reviews ( 2 drafts) averaging 750
words, equalling 18,000 words.
The DETROIT FREE PRESS
was on strike the first 8 months
of the year or that total would
have been considerably higher.
My work diary says, in effect,
that I wrote a total of 894,000
words.
From this total of slightly
less than a million words I
received a gross income of
slightly less than a cent a word
Gross income, mind you. Before expenses.
The Department of Commerce informs me that I made
less than half of you and that
only by working more hours.
If the foregoing set of facts
prompt you to steer your boy
or girl away from being a
writer, I can't blame you, but
I can say truthfully that I
wouldn't change places with any
of you.
For a man with no financial
responsibilities other than to
himself, there's no life like
it.
I make my own decisions,
and I set my own alarm clock.
May 19G9 be a good year for
us all.

Uncle Tim From Tyre Says:
Dear Mister Editor:
f
m
The old year wanes. The last sands
Jxtrickle down the hourglass as the old man
l:;jtotters into irrevocable past and a lusty
[•înfant year begins.
Bells ring in church steeples, confetti
grains, horns blow. People sing and shout
i:|and maybe shed a tear. Cries of "Happy
|j:;New Year" fill the ears and fall on happy
|;:jhearts, or sad.
To some, the old year brought joy and
tijhappiness. To others it hold sadness and
[•••despair. Thus, men greet the new year
[^differently; some with mockery, some with
|v*esolution, still others with a smile.
Whatever your feelings about the year
|*;ahead, there is one way to be sure of its
Ijvpromise. God is the source of all goodness.
;Make Him and His Church a part of your
•life and you will find the strength and
Inspiration to make each day prosper.
The sum of its days shapes the year.

ALL FOR THE CHURCH
The Church is the greatest factor on earth for the building of
character and good citizenship. It is a storehouse of spiritual.';
values. Without a strong Church, neither democracy nor civil!- •;
lotion can survive. There are four sound reasons why every
person should attend services regularly and support the Church.
They are: (1) For his own sake-. (2) For his children's sake. ;
(3) For the sake of his community and nation. (4) For the :•
sake of the Church itselff which needs his moral and material support. Plan to go to church regularly and read your Bible daily. ;

Republicans and Democrats
have selected their leaders for
the 1909 session. No surprises
or new faces emerged from
their separate organizational
caucuses.
The Democrats, who will hold
a 07-03 edge in the House,
named Rep. William A. Ryan of
Detroit as the next speaker.
Rep. Stanley J. Davis of Grand
Rapids got the No. 2 job of
speaker pro-tempore.
Other key jobs went to Rep.
George F. Montgomery, Detroit, majority floor leader, and
Matthew McN'eely of Detroit,
associated speaker pro-tern.
Ryan, everybody's idea of a

won the coveted speakership in
a five-candidate race. He promised to work cooperatively
with Republican House memIxjrs for the betterment of the

Beauty Superstitions
.'t—was—once—thought—thatstrawberry juice would get rid
of freckles, whitening and preserving the skin. Marie Antoinette, for one, insisted on taking baths in crushed berries.
And rinsing the face with
red wine was a sure-fire way
to save your skin, according to
the ladies of the 16th century.
Mary, Queen of Scots, asked
for (and received) a regular
government allowance of wine
in which to bathe.
Most of the ladies in her
court had to content themselves with miJk baths. The
popularity of that skin treatment has since soured.
The latest in a royal treatment of the skin is the moisturizer after the bath. One contains the moisture - retaining
properties of the cactus - like
aloe vera plant. Cactus cream?
But not all the old ideas
have proven foolish. Our greatgrandmothers powdered their
face with cake flour and used
beet juice as rouge. Now a cosmetics firm has come out with
a face powder made of corncob dust, so fine it can't clog
pores.
And in ancient Greece, women sat in the sun with their
hair covered in a sticky mixture of honey and hard-boiled
egg yolk, (o lighten their locks.
Women in the last century also
used egg yolk in their homemade shampoos, and egg is
still an ingredient in many
commercial shampoos.
Or take (he old idea that
women whn retire after midnight will look pale and haggard. There's plenty of scientific evidence to back up the
concept of "getting your beauty
