ADRIAN DAILY TELEGRAM, ADMAN, MICHIGAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1943 SEVEN 0. S. SIN CREDIT Vehicles, Seeds and Clothes Furnished Through Patriotic League Funds Newspapers throughout Great Britain continue to give prominent displays to articles and pictures featuring the many forms of assistance furnished to war sufferers by generous Americans through the British War Relief Society, H. A. Fee, president of the Lenawee Countv Patriotic League, said today.

"The B. W. R. S. is one of the agencies supported in part by the dollars you pay into the League funds," said Mr.

Fee. A typical article was recently published in a London newspaper. It follows: LONDON Mr. America and Mrs. America, loo, are marching to war.

Actually they stepped off on a firm right foot long before their government interceded. They sent us, Ihrough the British War Relief Society, more than a thousand vehicles for our war time welfare organizations among them whole convoys of food flying squads, each capable of carrying everything 4,000 blitzed people needed to eat and drink. They supplied thousands of our evacuated with and many times more British shipwrecked mariners with complete rescue kits. Mobile pharmacies, libraries, entertainment units (including mobile theatres convertible to chapels), bath houses on wheels, canning plants, touring citizens' advice gave us all these. Even 90 tons of you have to be a gardener who has bought minute fractions of an ounce in a seed packet to know what a single ton means.

They poured their love and affection on us in A very practical form before Pearl Harbor, and they are still working vigorously in our behalf In spite of pressing needs at home. Former Resident Of Lenawee Recalls Early County Fair Day; Although almost totally blind and "writing by instinct," Philo M. Lossing writes interestingly from Muskegon, his present home, of the early days of Lenawee county fairs. Mr. Lossing antedates even Frank Bradish and George Jones when it comes to county fair lore and inquires if there are any who were born in Lenawee county earlier than he, still You'll get his age and can answer that question after reading his letter to the The Telegram.

"According to past schedules this is fair week for the Lenawee county fair. In body I am in Muskegon but in spirit I am in Lenawee county looking backward at the fairs and scenes of past years at Lenawee county fairs. "I was born in a log house on section 36 in town of Raisin on August 1, 1849, the same year of the first state fair, one year later than the first Lenawee County fair held south of the Lake Shore Michigan Southern railroad depot. I have not attended all the fairs of Lenawee county but 94 years have left many sears on the reel of memory of happiness in and on the fair grounds of that county. "The first wild west show was at Lawrence Park (later the fail- grounds, with Bill Cody and his herd of 18 buffalo.

Kregg was butcher of Adrian. Cody wagered Kregg the latter could not touch one of the two old bulls, while mounted bareback, with a 10-foot pole. The buffalo were herded into the old floral hall and at a signal were let out and the fun began. "When Kregg got as close to an old bull as Cody desired Cody fired three shots from his revolver and the bull made a hole in the crowd which dispersed tumulluously. "The year the grandstand went down was a sad time.

That was when they were still holding the fairs on Lawrence Park and the year the county bought the present grounds. That was an excit- ing year. The officials hired ar outsider to make a balloon ascen sion. There was a young man iving in Adrian who had a balloo: and wanted the job. He agree to make a night ascension.

Hi Dalloon caught fire just as yelled to the men and boy holding the lines to 'let 'er go' an the balloonist with his blazing ba loon sailed north. He landed one of the buildings of the stat school for girls and was not severe ly injured. That was before th days of parachutes. "Those were the horse and bug gy days.

the war wounded poses a serious and delicate problem for America now and in the post-war years, and it must be solved, says Mrs, Eleanor Roosevelt. Here after a flying tour of the Pacific war theater during which she visited hospitals at every opportunity, the Presi- dent's wife told newsmen quite yesterday that: "We will have more handicapped have lost arms, a leg, an this war. than we ever have had before." Returning wounded and crippled men to the nation's social life "will be a problem," she conceded, adding: "We can prepare now to place these men in useful jobs after the war. Employers already have been called upon to use handicapped workers. They will have to be asked to take they will be willing to do it.

"The problem that concerns me most is how these returning men will re-enter their social lives." She cited an incident to her knowledge of a soldier whose face was badly scarred on one side. He took a girl companion into an Australian restaurant. Patrons stared at him. One woman looked, turned away and began weeping. The soldier arose abruptly and walked out.

"That's an illustration of tha problem I mean," Mrs. Roosevelt said. "One's natural reaction at seeing men like this is first to feel sorry for them and then draw away. "There remains a great job of adjustment and much work and education among the people. We must realize that these men urgently desire to feel independent and believe they can do things themselves."
