BEWARE OF CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING When the first cool days of faH come, we may expect to pick up our newspaper any day and read that some motorist has paid the penalty for his ignorance of the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning. The accident prevention department of the Chicago Motor Club believes that instead of waiting until the cool weather is upon us, ample warning of this menance to life should be broadcast now. Do you run your car in a closed garage? If you do you are courting death. Carbon monoxide is a poisonous gas present in the automobile engine exhaust. You can not see it, smell it, nor taste it. This gas is the product of incomplete combustion. It has been found that the exhaust gases of automobiles contain from four to eight per cent of carbon monoxide.

NO ACTION TAKEN sf ^ ON DANOE HALLS Oomrty Boards Cannot Bar Properly Conducted Road Houses, Ruling At the teat session of the McHenry eottnty board of supervisors the question of Issuing licenses to road houses and dance halls under the new state law was discussed, but no action was taken at the meeting because no applications for licenses had been presented to the board for action. No opinion on the provisions of the new law had been obtained by the board, and the members were much in doubt as to their duties and responsibilities. It was decided to let the entire matter go over until the next meeting. While the McHenry county board failed to take any action in the matter, many other counties did issue licenses, while In a number of others licenses were refused by the board. Attorney General Rules County boards have no right to bar road houses or dance halls and cannot prevent their operation on Sundays unless theye disturb the peace. The ruling is that of Attorney General Carlstrom, according to a Moline dispatch. He was asked for an interpretation of the new road house law after the Henry county board hafl refused to issue any road house or dance hall licenses. In an opinion piven to States Attorney William R. Harris of Macomb, the attorney general said: "The new road house law, passed at the last session of the legislature, says that county boards may issue licenses for road houses and dance halls and then gives conditions under which and to whom such licenses may be Issued. The word 'may' as used in the law means that the power ought to be exercised by the board. "To hold the - word 'may' as used above as having a permissive meaning would make the act (the road house law) clearly unconstitutional, and because the case above cited is authority for interchanging the words 'may' and 'shall' in certain instances, my opinion is that It was the legislature intent to use the word 'may' synonymously with the 'shall,' and my opinion also 1b that the word 'may' must be given a mandatory meaning." Ordinary restaurants, lunch stands and similar places where dancing is not permitted and where no other amusements are provided, are not road houses or dance halls and need not have a license, according to Mr. Carlstrom. The attorney general also rules that barbecue stands, skating rinks or ferris wheels are not road houses or dance halls. Mr. Carlstrom has ruled that "any road house conducting a dance or dance hall, operating before the date the law became effective can continue to so operate until the county board meets to issue or to refuse a license as provided under the terms of this act. "My further opinion is that no person can, since the date said law became effective, open or conduct a dance hall or road house for dancing purposes without a license until the county board meets and issues a license pursuant to the purpose of the act in question."
