Fur
The ReglonaJ Plan Association
of New York, is the sponsor
for the Garden State Parkway
now being touted as a post
war works project. At least this
association is the one that has
approached the Essex County
Park Commission to utilize
park lands for the approach to
Millburn Township
i | u; parkway plan has had
nun ierous endorsements but
none of these have assumed
fcu parenthood and decision
as to what agency will,bear the
costs involved is still a matter
of doubt.
The Park Commission has no
funds for such construction but
the state or Essex County may
be looked to as making it a
part of their highway system.
Route 22 is already a part of
the state approved project that
has been held in ebeyance 1
because of the local opposition
and secondly by the insistant
demands for highway construction
in other parts of the state.
Had Short Hills too become insistent
it would in all pispbability
be a reality already.
At the time the Regional Plan
Association approached the
Park Commission for approval
of the Brookside drive plan, it
is said to have had also an alternate
route of more scenic
character that tr:i relMd the

Defense Lecture
For Householders
Do you know the easiest way
to blackout your home?
Are you confused by conflicting
bits of information about
incendiaries?
Do you want to learn the best
way to fix up your refuge room?
Do you want to learn the few
essentials to remember about
gas attacks?

'lieves that at least one person
in every household in Millburn
should have the correct answers
to these and many other ques-.
tions, and so they are offering
a condensed lecture for householders
and civilians. The essential
information will be
given in one lecture, which has
been condensed from lectures
previously given to Air Raid
Wardens.
In order to make it easier for
people in the various sections

same lecture will be repeated
every Monday night In different
schools.
The schedule follows: Monday,
May 4, 8 P. M. Hobart Avenue

Open House At
Radio Sales
After more than a month of
preparation, one of Millburn's
best known business housea will
move to a new location next
week-end. The store, Radio
Sales Corp., having been a
landmark in the Center for the
past twenty years, shakes itself
free from the quarters
which their expanding business
has made too cramped, and
moves to more commodious
housing at 327 Millburn avenue.
A gala celebration is planned
on Friday and Saturday, May
1 and 2 to introduce the new
home. Souvenirs, gifts and refreshments
will all be a part of
the proceedings.
The new store, completely rebuilt,
will feature larger display
space, and * comfortable
lounge booths for the use of
patrons of the record department.
These booths have been
completely sound-proofed, and
are equipped with high-fidelity
reproducing amplifiers.
Anticipating a decided upswing
in appliance repairs due
to the scarcity of new products,
the service department
has been enlarged and increased
in personnel, to care for
resident needs during the war.
New Instruments and tools
have been added.
A young lady from the Pfanstiehl
Phonograph Needle Co.
will be there on the opening
days to demonstrate the correct
use of thU needle which is
designed for 4,000 plays, and is
standard equipment on Philco,
Admiral, Zenith. art, G.E.
R.C.A.-Victor, and some dozen
other leading phonographs.
Milton and Norman Marks,
operating the store for the past
twenty years have made a host
of friends, and it is expected
that a great turn-out will be
had for the opening.

Plan Your Moving Carefully!
If you are faced with MOVING DAY—face it squarely! Plan the
job carefully and thoroughly so that everything will work
smoothly and economically when the shift is made. Here are
suggestions from Public Service:
1—Notify your nearest Public Service Commercial Office NOW of the date
you plan to move and the new address (with floor or apartment number).
This will help greatly to avoid delay in providing you with electric
and gas service at your new home.
2—Make certain that your electric and gas appliances are properly packed
and handled. This will help prevent needless damage to things which
are difficult and expensive to replace today.

required to undergo any physical
examination, Colonel Bloomer
emphasized.
All males who have attained
their 45th birthday on or before
February 16, 1942, and have not

These Are Bank Nights
Tonight and Saturday we all have an opportunity to work
pleasurably for Millburn. We have but to attend the production of
"Patience" at Millburn High School to strengthen our local defense
against air raid attack.
Members of Christ Church have worked to make this Gilbert
and Sullivan operetta a musical treat and in turning the entire
net proceeds over to the Local Defense Council they have set a
fine example of community service.
Musically Father Millburn may not know one note from another
but he does know bank notes and these two evenings are to
be bank nights for him, the proceeds going to the purchase of
needed equipment for fire protection, first aid and police.
Teachers' Contracts
After all that has transpired it is still gratifying to see R.
John Bretnall big enough and in the mood to accept any decision
the Board of Education may arrive at as to his deserts.
Little cake has been coming John's way in recent months
and not a few residents have this week expressed the view the sum
involved in this latest development is a good will token due a man
who for 18 years has guided youth of the community, contract or
no contract.
In the opinion of the board's own counsel the retiring principal
is in the right in the contract disclosures. If a mistake in
timing has been made, the fault is not his.
Why not assume the $875 obligation smilingly and then let the
recipient reverse the usual procedure if so inclined and throw a
testimonial dinner lor the board.
A Draft For Victory
This week the war comes home to more thousands of Millburn
Township's residents as men between the ages of 45 and 64 years
respectively, register for such service as the Army and defense authorities
deem the best able to render.
A lot of wishful thinking will go out the window with this last
draft for many who have held the war would end this year, will
begin to sense we really have a bull by the tail and that we must
hang with all our strength if we are to escape being gored.
Our Army and our arms are going to be spread out pretty
thin between all the fronts where we must fight and those others
we have pledged to defend and equip.
Already we know the consequence of too little and to late.
We can not win that way and win we will.
Not a man in this draft may shoulder a rifle but he will be
asked doubtless to put shoulder to such other task as he may be
fitted for.
Go to your nearest school over the week-end prepared to
serve to the limit when the call comes, just as have the younger
men who preceded you. You may have to join the CIO even, but
who cares in a life and death struggle.

HEADQUARTERS
Bathroom IA not
When stocking the bathroom
linen closet, select terry towels
with a strong basic weave and
firm selvage for long wear, and
long, loosely-twisted loops for
greatest absorbency. A dozen
each of bath towels, face cloths
and linen hand towels, and four
bath mats is a nice stock for a
family of two—and extras, of
course, for guests.
Rinse Thoroughly
Thorough rinsing Is essential
to produce snowy white laundry.
For white cottons and
linens use plenty of hot clean
water, changing the rinses
until no trace of soap remain*.
Then blue lightly and dry in
sunshine.
Broiled Mush rooms
Select large white mushrooms.
Wash, remove stems and dry.
Place on a buttered broiler and
broil for five minutes, turning
them once. Sprinkle with salt,
pepper and a little melted butter.
Pill with French Peas and
serve around the tomato coaffle.
•
Remove Scratches
If scratches on furniture arc
quite deep, first stain the
scratch with matching wood
color, then wax or polish with
a good furniture polish. If the
scratch is not deep and the
wood rather light, often only
wax or polish is sufficient to
make the blemish less evident.
Quick Dessert
An easy hurry-up dessert is
made in a jiffy by spreading
sponge layers with jelly and
sprinkling with some grated
cocoanut.

An Oldsmobile station wagon
bearing the name of Short

shortly be seen around these
parts transporting pupils to the
school. A piece of good luck
made it possible for the school
to purchase the station wagon
last week, and it is expected
that it will prove a boon to parents
of the school next year
who want to conserve tires. Applications
for enrollment in the
school are already being received
for next year.
