The date of the election will be Tuesday, April 16, and, the calm w~ich pr~ cedes the "blow,' now prevatls, tt ts said. It is almost certain that there are to be two tickets in the field, but the two parties which have. ~eretofore con- . tested in former rnuntctpal battles do not intend showing their hand, it is said, until the very last moment. The last day for filing will be this week-end, at which time the t\-\'O political slates will have been completed and recorded. Up to the middle of t~is week, however, there was . no defintte announcement of what etther party intended to do.

The population has mcreased somewhat during the past two ye~rs. a~d it is said that the coming electton wtll, in all probability, be a 1& percent affair as far as total votes, as ~ompared with population, are concer~ed. Water Problem lmmtnent One of the big things which Korthfield nO\\. has before it is the plan t.o obtain lake water from \Vinne~ka. T.hts matter has been under constderatton for more than a year, with a result that the two village boards h~ve a))o~t come to an agreement, w~tch, . tt 1s said. will soon be the subJect tor a public hearing at ~orthfield. . The village is satd to be very anxt~us to obtain this very important scrnce from the village to the east,, but ~he consummation oi the plan, tn\·olvmg_ as it does a release by Nor.thfield o~ a portion of its eas!ern ter:ttory whtch would be taken mto \Vmnetka. has brought up more of a problem than the mere contracting for a supply of la~e water and the laying of a water mam across the Skokie, as was done for .t\orthbrook by Glencoe. Geo:-ge Nixon, the welt known s~b didder \Yho has been busy develo~mg an extensive area of several acres )U~t west of the tracks at Northfield .. 1s said to be planning to ~o ah~ad wtth his building operations thts spnng.
