Kindergartners are required to be immunized

Parents were reminded today by Dr. W. B. Prothro, City-County Health Officer that a state wide law now requires all children entering school for the first lime in Michigan to secure immunizations against small-pox. lockjaw, whooping cough, diptheria. polio, tuberculosis and measles. Measles immunization has just been added to the re-quirement for school admit-tance.

The measles vaccine Is for the red or hard measles and does not offer protection against the 3-day measles, however, during the past year, the in-cidence of reported measles has dropped 52 percent which may be a point indicating the value of measles immunization.

Measles as a disease has caused some serious complica-tions to children. All children over 9 months of age should be protected if they have not had this disease. There a r e some mild reactions to the Im-munization but this is of short duration and has not produced any complications or made the children infectious during the reaction period.

Now is the t ime that pre-school children should get their shots .so as to avoid the fall rush or spoil your vacation.

If securing immunizations is a financial burden (or your children a re not under super-vision of a family doctor) im-munizations can be secured a t the Grand Rapids-Kent County Health Department week-days from 9 a. m. to 4 p. m. except on Thursday when the clinic is open from 1 p. m. to 4 p. m .

Immunizations are also avail-able at the Paris Township Li-brary Building, 44th Street a t Jefferson. SE, the third Wed-nesday of each month at 9 a . m.

With the time approaching for the seasonal grass cutting spree, attention is called to the hazards of power lawn mowers. Dr. W. B. Prothro. City-County Health Officer warned that the greatest majori ty of injuries a r e caused by two types of ac-cidents—objects being picked up by the blades, and direct In-jury to hands and feet by the blades.

To help avoid these and other types of injuries the following suggestions for safe operation of power lawn equipment a re offered:

1. Read and be sure you understand the operating pro-cedure manual for your mower.

2. Keep mowers in top opera-ting condition.

3. Fill gasoline tank out-of-doors and away from any pos-sible sources of fire.

Never fill tank when engine and exhaust a re hot.

4. Stand away from mower when starting, and be sure It Ls on level ground.

5. Mow during daylight hours and when grass is dry.

6. If mower is self-propelled, keep in s tep with it. Don't let it pull you.

7. Never walk in front of a grass discharge chute when the mower is running.

8. When mowing on an in-cline. move along the face of the slope, never up and down.

9. Never take passengers on a riding mower.

10. Don't leave mower unat-tended if it is runnlg. Never at tempt to clear blades o r do any work on the mower until it is shut off.

11. Store fuel in approved safety cans in an outside loca-tion.

12. Before mowing check the lawn for objects that could be thrown by the blades.

13. Keep children and others away from mowing area.

Though the power mower adds greatly to the convenience of maintaining a lawn, it should be treated as a potenti-ally dangerous machine- A mower meeting safety stand-ards set up by the American Standards Association will dis-play a seal with "ASA" in large letters and the words "Conforms to Safety Stand-a rds . " Your Health Department suggests you look for this seal when purchasing a new mower.

regarded as among our most beneficial birds. It has been es-timated an adult martin will consume 2,000 mosquitoes each day.

One often sees a colony of purple martins some distance from a body of water. They have been known to travel sev-eral miles for water and food. In flight they are perhaps the fastest bird known.

If one lives in the suburbs of a city he can be almost certain of getting martins to come to his house If it has sufficient open space. Those people on the edge of a lake or within a mile or two of a lake have an ex-cellent chance. It required pa-tience and time but the reward Is worth the effort.

This investment will not only provide pleasure but It will al-so rid the place of mosquitoes. There will be no more reason deadly DDT and to run the risk of its serious consequences.

To prevent the house from being taken over by sparrows and starlings, it is advisable to keep the house covered with canvas until the first birds ar-

rive. If the aluminum house with door stops is being used it Is easy to remove the door stops,

Martins begin nesting six to eight weeks later than blue-birds. Houses erected by the first of June have had martins nests. It is good to erect the houses in June. July and Au-gust because it gives the mar-tins a chance to become ac-ouainted with the location and tnere will be a better chance for occupants the next season.

The department n t the Inter-ior Fish and Wlkilife service. Washington, D. C. will send you without charge detailed plans for building an attractive and useful purple mart in house.

Purple Martins kill mosquitoes

The purple martin is the largest and probably the best known of the swallow family. They migrate leisurely and usu-ally leave Michigan for their winter home in northern South America before Labor Day.

When they start north again in January they have a ten-dency to return to their nesting places of the previous year . "In southern Michigan the mar-tins ar r ive in April, sometimes as early as the first, more oft-en between the 10th and 20th of the month, but sometimes not until the very last of the month or even the first of May"—Barrows.

Medi-label for licenses

If you have a driver 's license or especially if you a re one of the almost two-miliion Michig-an folks who will be renewing your driver 's license this year, I would strongly urge you request your doctor to place a ••Medi-Label" on it.- i r

This small sticker, containing medical information important in an emergency, could conceiv-ably save your life.

Now, just what is this Medi-Label, and why do Michigan doc-tors hope that each driver will obtain one for bis license?

The label, which fits on the back of the permit, will allow your physician to include such medical information as an al-lergy to certain drugs, whether you wear contact lenses, have a history of heart disease, or any other special medical in-formation.

In addition, your blood tyue can be included on this Medi-Label and that could be ex-tremely important, saving time a f t e r a serious accident, or help-ing you to remember your own blood type so you can help a-nother.

Anyone with a special medi-cal hMory, like a heart con-dition. can easily see the value of the label. However, when you get right down to it. all of us really have a special medical history.

For instance, would you think that simply wearing contact len< ses could have a serious effect on you af ter an accident? >'

Of course, it almost goes with-out saying that If ymi happen to be sensitive to penicillin or other drugs, it Is especially im-portant that the doctor know this—the Medl-Label will teD him immediately, and he will be able to act accordingly.

And anyone suffering from an affliction that requires penodic medication, such as diabete-s, should make the label a nec-essary part of their health pro-tection. A diabetic who goes too long without insulin may look as if he is drunk to people around him. If be doesn't re-ceive the medication quickly, he will suffer a reaction that may lead to a diabetic coma—which could prove fatal.

Lastly. I would like you to understand the value of the Medi-Label in regard to teta-nus—a disease that poses a po-tential threat every t ime you cut yourself. The label will con-tain the dates of your tetanus immunization shots, so the phys-ician can be certain you are adequately protected.

Please have your doctor put a Medl-Label on your license— the short time it takes to ob-tain one may pay you big divi-dends in the future.

Power mowers are weapons

Last summer a six-year-old girl was killed before her fath-er ' s eyes while he was mow-ing the front lawn of their home.

The weapon that struck down the child was a harmless look-ing power lawn mower. The cause: a small piece of an or-dinary coat hanaer thrown by the mower 's blades, and lodged in the little girl 's chest.

In a sense I suppose this tragedy could be called an ac-cident. But in another sense,

there was nothing accidental a-bout it a t all. The fact of the mat ter is that power lawn mo-wers, especially the rotary type, a r e potentially deadly weapons if they a r e used improperly. However, they can be a use-ful. safe, implement if a few common sense precautions are observed.

The most common accident involving power mowers occurs when a person puts his hand or his foot under the mower while It is running. The second most frequent mishap involves a mis-sile being thrown from the mow-e r as in the tragic accident I described earlier.

Now, what should you do if you have a power mower, to

minimize the possibility of any accident? First of all, when you start your mower make sure your foot is in a safe position. This seems obvious, but It's all too easy to be forgetful, and to have one foot under the mo-wer as you pull the starter. Second, before you begin mow-a, look over the lawn care-

y. removing stones, rucks, sticks, and other hazards that may be lying about.

However, even though you look over your lawn carefully, the chances a re there will be some small objects you have missed. So the only really safe procedure Is to keep children and pets off the lawn while you're mowing. This may seem difficult a t times, but I assure you It Is worth the effort it takes.

Other precautions that will help you to avoid an accident are not leaving the mower un-attended when it is running, not filling the gas tank while the engine is hot, and never work-ing under the mower without dis-connecting the spark plug. You should also always mow side-ways on hills instead of up and down to avoid slipping, and letting the mower slide over your toes.

If you follow these suggestions I 'm sure you'll find your ro-tary lawn mower to be a nig-ged, dependable and efficient machine for cutting your grass.

En|oy total electric living

In a total-electric Gold Medal-lion Home, one w.uld assume that the wiring was adequate to carry the power needed to operate the electric equipment which comes with the house. I t is, of course! But, It's more than that!

The wiring in a Gold Medal-lion Home Is designed and in-stalled with the home's electri-cal future in mind. Families choose Gold Medallion Homes because they want to enjoy total-electric living to the full. As they acquire more electrical equipment over the years, they can be confident that the home's wiring will carry the extra load.

Fall Honsepower Required

Gold Medallion Home Stan-dards require "Full Housepow-e r " wiring. This means that over-size wires a r e used to con-nect the home to the utility lines, and the main panel is sized to match. Most Gold Me-dallion Homes are equipped with main panels which will handle 150 to ZOO amperes. In layman's terms, this means that 36.000 to 48.000 watts can be connected all at one time.

Each item of ma jo r electrical equipment feeds off the main panel through its own, individual circuit. Lights and portable plug-in appliances share a number of circuits, usually designed to carry 1,800 and 2,400 watts each, depending on which areas they serve. Many Gold Medal-lion Homes have a special ap-pliance circuit, serving outlets In the kitchen and dining areas, which will permit small appli-ances totalling 4,800 watts to be connected simultaneously to a single duplex outlet.

Room for ExpansioB

Best of all, the Mg main panel has spare capacity. As new ma-jor appliances are added, it 's easy and economical to install the new, individual circuits they require. Plenty of convenience outlets and switches a re provid-ed too, permitting lamps and appliances to be plugged in wherever the ftmily wants to use them. Full Housepower wir-ing standards call for duplex convenience outlets to be placed every four feet along kitchen counters. In general living a reas and bedrooms, they must be lo-cated so that no point along any wall line is more than six feet from an outlet.

Make ice cubes like magic, and replenish your summer's supply

Do ice cubes seem to disap-pear like magic at your h o u s e -pear like magic at your h o u s e -especially during the summer? When friends drop In for a cool drink, a re you frustrated to find that the kids have raided the ice cube t rays? H your refrig-erator is an old model, you share this problem with many other families. However, it 's a problem that 's solved by the automatic ice-making and stor-ing features found in the top models of most 1966 refrigera-tors. Connected to a water line, these refrigerators put ice cubes at your finsertips whenever they're needed.

One manufacturer has mount-ed a 270-cube container on the freezer door, where they're eas-iest to reach. Cubes drop in au-tomatically as they're made. Not an ice t ray in sight! Other refrigerators store cubes in a freeser basket, while still oth-ers a re equipped with trays which fill automatically.

For large families, where lots of entertaining is done, there's a .separate ice-niakin£ machine available as either a free-stand-ing or built-in un i t The free-standing model is only 14 inches wide x 24 inches high x 15% Inches deep. It will store up to 150 cubes and produce 400 cubes a day if required. It can be in-stalled wherever both an elec-trical circuit and water line are

available.

Beauty and Ctnvenlence Too

With or without automatic ice, 1966 refrigerators have a lot to offer. Behind their colorful ex-teriors, you'll find interior de-sign features that a re new and exciting. A pull-down shelf on the door of one model, for ex-ample; "baske t" shelves on an-other which are both removable and reversable; French Doors on still another—plus all kinds of innovations in door storage. One or more of these features a re almost sure to be included in the refrigerators you will find in new Gold Medallion Homes.

Food Freezers Too

Now that efficient, thin-wall insulation helps to provide more storage capacity in less space, both the refrigerator and freez-er compartments of late-model refrigerator-freezers have plen-ty of room for both fresh and frozen foods. Whether It's lo-cated a t the top. the bottom or down one side, the freezer sec-tion is designed for the maxi-mum use. It stores commercial-ly irazen food packages and ice cream, of course. But, in addi-

ready for heating and serving.

Good Time TO ARRANGE FOR OIL HEAT BUDGET

PAYMENT PLAN

With the sun beating down hot and heavy, most people don't give too much thought to next winter's heat. And. who can blame them?

But there Is one simple step that can be taken by phone o r by postcard that can make next winter a lot more plea-sant for the homeower. THE STEP: to request the oil heat dealer to cor -e r t the family 's account to a convenient Bud-get Payment Plan.

The primary advantage of the Budget Plan is to divide heating costs over equal pay-ments—most frequently for 10 months—and thus avoid the exceptionally heavy fuel bills which otherwise must be faced in January and Febru-ary'—just at the t ime every-one is buried under Christmas bills.

It is 68 years old and yet still young. This is the histor-ic Cascade Township Hall. To-day it Is undergoing renova-tion. but on the evening of July 19. 1898, It was only a thought gleaned In the minds of the Township Board of that l ime.

The weather as reported in the Grand Rapids Herald that day read. "Showers & thund-erstorms. Warmer with brisk southerly winds." The Board members arrived at Mr. Cog-er ' s blacksmith shop and met upstairs in what was referred to as Coger's Hall. This was loaded where Thorn's TV store now stands. The purpose of the meeting was to decide upon a site for the future Town Hall.

For fifty years, since Cas-cade had become a township, the various boards had been meeting in the local hotels, in the office of the Township Clerk, a t Coger's Hall, and for one

winter at the local shoe store where the rent had been a full sum of $10. Including heat.

Now It was time to have a Town Hall and the members voted to buy the Hattie Patter-son site for $50. For the next several weeks these men met again and again to arrange plans and to receive bids for the building.

They finaUy made a contract with Miner and Eugene Smith for «95 and on September 18 there was an order drawn for one-third of the contract for the building. They also decided that night to have a door and wind-ow in the south end at an ad-ditional cost of $20.50. The paint-ing job was given out for $50.

Two weeks later, they voted to have a circular window in the front of the Town Hall in the gable and again on Octob-er 13 voted to have eight iron plates for the foot of the fence across the hall.

The 30 inch circular window can still be seen, but the fence has since gone its way. At the time, however, the fence was a divider in front of which vo-ters stood when discussing pro-blems of the day. One could only approach and*argue a point upon recognition and it helped keep meetings orderly.

All of this activity must have been exciting To see the build-ing arising and to have a real Town Hall at last was an ac-complisment long desired. Then on April 3, 1899. the first an-nual meeting was held in the haU.

It is very doubtful that the people that attended the first meeting even considered the thought that so many years la-ter their work would not only be remembered, but that the hall would be in such constant use today.

Gerrit Baker, present Town-ship Supervisor, has said that it is used almost daUy. Some-times schedules have to be re-arranged in order to accomo-date all of the uses for which it is requested.

Al Heemstra, Cascade Town-ship Clerk, himself an avid stu-dent of the history of the area is overseeing the renovation of the hall. The Cascade Volun-teer Fire Department under the direction of Lee Norton has put a new eaves troughs and the chimney Ls being pointed. Al-though the painting will not be completed in time for the Thomapple V a l l e y Artist 's showing on July 4. it should be completed this summer.

The interior will be painted in the same beige that was pop-

ular al the time the hall was first opened.

A great debt of gratitude Is owed to the men who erected this haU. It was their foresight that helped knit the township together. Today older and new-er residents can meet in this same building that their inspira-tion made possible.

Cascade Township is still gov-erned as it was in 1848 by a town board. In 1898 the voters had chosen W. J . Watterson as supervisor: Jacob W. Renter as treasurer, and George W. Gor-ham as clerk.

When you next drive by or enter Cascade Township HaU, try to envision those past days and be ^lad that the present board is as interested in main-taining It as those other men were in creating it.

Enters race for State's beauty title

Saturday, May 21, was the evening Miss Rita DeGennaro was crowned Miss Thomapple VaUey, 1966, by Wendy ElweU, Miss Thomapple Valley. 1965.

Since that night MLss DeGen-naro and Mrs. Robert Van Sluy-ters. have been working diligent-ly preparing for this week in Muskegon.

Besides holding down a full t ime secretarial position. Miss DeGennaro, has been taking dancing lessons two and three times a week for two hour periods, working out her dance routine, which wiU be her tal-ent for the Miss Michigan Pag-eant. plus constant costume fitting.

Several days were spent in selecting the proper wardrobe to be worn during the week of June 26 through July 1 at Mus-kegon.

Sunday. June 26, Miss De-Gennaro' and Mrs. R. E. Van-Sluyters left for Muskegon, up-on arriving they registered at the Holiday Inn, the official residence of all contestants and chapcrones for the week in Mus-kegon.

The girls were then orienta-ted as to the activities of the week and then donned their bathing suits for the official Miss Michigan Bathing Suit picture and for TV.

Monday through Friday the girls are constantly kept busy with rehearsals, interviews with the judges, and they arrive at the Walker arena by 8. and ex-cept for lunch are kept busy constantly rehearsing & Inter-viewing, untU late into the night.

The girl who Is chosen Miss Michigan rightfully earns her crown as the girls are under constant observance in all cas-es during the very busy week.

Starting Tuesday night at 8 p. m. . there Ls a nightly show.

Dwarfs become giants of state fruit trees

Dwarf apple trees are fast be-coming the "g ian ts" of Michi-gan's fruit industry.

"Over 70 percent of the ap-ple trees planted each year in Michigan a re dwarf t rees ." re-ports Robert F. Carlson, Mich-igan State University hurticul-turist. "Growers like them be-cause they yield more fruit per acre and a re easier to pick."

The adoption of dwarf trees (about the height of a tall man) has been steady and rapid, main-ly because of changes in labor availabli 'y.

"Twenty years ago, dwarf trees were almost taboo. At that t ime." says Carlson, " labor was plentiful to pick 30-foot tall trees.

"Today, the fruit grower is constantly looking for efficiency and for "step and hand-saving methods of orchard operation. Ladders are disappearing from the orchard scene at harvest time, simply because the pick-er can t afford to spend half his t i m e moving a ladder around the tree and. from tree to t ree ."

With dwarf, man-sized trees, the picker can stand on Ihe ground and harvest the fruit. He covers less distance between trees since the dwarf trees are planted closer together.

"Dwarf trees are often plant-ed 12 feet apar t with 20 f e ^ between rows," explains Carl-son. "These trees will outyield the large standard trees plant-ed 30 by 40 feet and they will p roduce 'more apples per acre.

"Apple yields of 1.000 to 1.200 bushels per acre for eight-year-old and older dwarf trees are becoming common in Michi-gan. Even higher yields have been produced in experimental orchards at the MSU Agricul-tural Experiment Stations at East Lansing and Grand Rap-ids."

Carlson lists these advantag-es of the compact, dwarf trees: early production in the life of the tree; ease and efficiency of picking, pruning and spraying; superior yields per acre: and improv ed 'color and size unifor-mity of the fruit.

The new famUy was anxious to make a good impression in the neighborhood. But the neigh-bors remained aloof.

The mother was overjoyed when finaUy her youngest son ran in and announced happily. "Mommy, tho lady next door asked my name today!"

•'Oh." how nice!" his mother exclaimed. "And then what did so do™

••Th!?n she gave it to the poUceman," the boy said.

Each night a group of girls a re judged on their talent, they a re broken-into groups of A. B. and C. and aU through the week they are in their respective group for all judging, inter-views. and luncheons.

MLss DeGennaro has worked very hard and been most c o o p erative and uncomplaining in her constant effort to improve herself a s a representative of the Ada Community Association as Miss Thomapple VaUey.

Friday night the pageant will be on WOOD TV and of course the ACA hopes their represen-tative will be a winner, how-ever, if .she isn't, she will be a very lovely representative for the Ada Community Association throughout the coming year.

We all wish Miss DeGennaro the best of luck!

Ada's July 4th celebration set

The Ada Community Associa-tion's Fourth of July celebra-tion will be somewhat different than in past years, due to the pipe construction going on in Ada, and the only activity in Ada will be the Mason's ever popular chicken barbecue.
