25 YEARS AGO
(N WYANDOTTE
“Wyandotte has a water that
rivals the famous springs of the
country in sparkle and purity,*’
according to an article on Wyan
dotte’s achievements over a period
of years, written by W. L. Clark,
city chemist.
Wyandotte high school was spon
soring a carnival featuring dancing
with a main show entitled “Pol
lies of 1921”, a midway, wireless,
and various booths, in an effort to
raise money for their annual pub
lication, the Wi-Hi yearbook.
The city commission was informed
that anew fire alarm system cost
ing $6,500 would have to be in
stalled shortly or the insurance
rates would be raised. As city funds
were at low ebb, officials were ex
pected to resort to bonding in order
to install the up-to-date equip
ment.
An organization and expansion
campaign of the Wyandotte Board
o' Commerce was underway with
a membership goal totaling 500.
The work was in the hands of rep
resentatives of a New York bu
reau.
“Lincoln freed the slaves. Who
w'ill free us?” —Gls in Manila, de
manding demobilization.

friendly.”—CoL “Pappy” Boyington,

WAR VICTIMS
Tree bark and fish skins are
used by war-destitute peoples
overseas to fashion shoes and
clothing for themselves and
their children in an effort to
keep the spark of life in their
bodies.
War victims in the Philippines
are wearing garments made of
pounded tree bark which cost
about $2 each—with the average
monthly wage only S2O.
In looted Norway, shoes are
being made of skin of fish sewn
t~ wooden soles. They do not
keep out the cold and disinte
grate in a few weeks. In Poland,
rags and scraps of roofing paper
are used for shoes.
