" --- New Committee A ne*w committee consisting of Suf pervlteors V. E. Brown, Charles M. palmer and D. M{ Wright, was appoiij^ ed by Chairman N. B. Clawson •Tuesday to act as representation from the board of supervisors in Writing with the Illinois Emergency Relief bffice at the armory. The committee was appointed following a discussion on the question .asked by Ray Crocker of Marengo, county, organizer for the unemployed council, why the county board was not represented on the IER in Mc- ' Henty county. v Up. until September -1* the county had representation on the IER. John , T. O'Brien, former supervisor from Harvard, had represented the board up until the time he resigned the supervisorship to take over the postjnaetership in Harvard. Since that time the board has had no representation on the IER council. The jiew committee will work in conjunction with the IER in the ad- " tninihtering of relief in the county. May Chaage System . -T^<e board may change the present syStfih of feeding prisoners in the -county jail. Tbe proposition of paying the n«w sheriff so jnuch a day for the keep of prisoners was brought up by Supervisor Charles Ackman. This would replace the present method and . leave it up to the sheriff to purchase all 6-jpplies «nd take care of the prisoners on the amount of money paid by the board. Whether this system - -will be used remains to be found out efter an investigation is made to determine whether it would be cheaper to do It that way instead of the present method. Supervisor Ackman also suggested to take up with the new sheriff when _ he takes over his new duties next - month whether it wouldn't be less expensive for the county to purchase its own car to be used by the sheriff than to pay for the upkeep of a car ' owned by the sheriff. These matters are expected to be talked over with Henry A. Nolle of Marengo, who is the sheriff elect and who will take over his new duties pn December 3.

COUNTY ELECTION FIGURES INTERESTING Mr. and Mrs. Howard Phalin, Marjory and Harold Phalin of Evans ton spent the weekend m tip J.^H Pfcatin w-- " It is not too late to talk about the election and from the Woodstock Sentinel we have gleaned the following interesting sidelights on the big political contest of last week. It is interesting to note that Thos. A. Bolger of McHenry led the assembly race with 18,677 votes in McHenry county while Carroll was next with 15,884. Bolger not only led in McHenry county but in . the district as well, carrying McHlenry and Lake counties to turn the trick. A total of 16,986 votes were cist in the county which was 2,796 more than were cast in the primary last spring. There were 11,817 straight tickets voted in the county and of this number 7,134 were Republicans and 4,- 683 were Democrats. This left a total of 5,169 who scratched their ballots by voting for some Republicans and some Democrats. The third precinct in McHenry led the county in the number of straight Democratic ballots cast, with a total of 274. In Harvard, Chemung precinct 1, led all others in straight voting with 455 Republican ballots cast. McHenry precinct9 one, twd* and three were among the seven of tbe 31 precincts in the county in which straight Democratic ballots carried. Others were Hartland, Benton and Algonquin four. However, McHenry one and two went Republican on split ballots and carried for county candidates on the Republican ticket. The Progressive party broke"3 into the scoring column in the election last week by polling as high as 16 votes for one of its candidates. The Prohibition party also scored with a candidate polling 12 votes and the Socialist- Labor party went on record with 9 votes for the candidate for state treasurer. -- The Socialist party made the best record in the county with a candidate for trustee of the University of Illinois polling 27 votes. The county officers will start their new term of office on Dec. 3 with one new name, that of Henry A. Nulle as sheriff, appealing on the court house roster. " The emergency relief bond issue carried every precinct in the county to roll up a vote of 11,600 for the issue and 3,199 against. According to reports the bbnd issue carried all over the state. McHenry county voted against the proposition to call a constitutional canvention to revise the state constitution.

ARMISTICE DAY OBSERVED HERE LEGION STAGES ANNUAL CARNIVAL The sixteenth anniversary of Armistice Day was observed in various celebrations and at church services in McHenry, as well as throughout the nation. Because Armistice Day fell on Sunday, Monday also was recognized as a holiday and the bank Mid local schools were closed in observance of the day. After facing the east for a minute of silence in memory of the soldier dead the Softool students were dismissed for the remainder of. the day. In neighboring cities American Legion posts held appropriate ceremonies while in McHenry the clergy in Sunday sermons urged their congregations^ to work for the furtherance of a continued peace throughout the world. The observances here were varied, ranging from religious services on Sunday to a festive Armistice dance and carnival at the Bridge on Satpft day night. Carnival. Draws Crowd As usual, the annual Red, White and Blue carnival sponsored by McHenry post of the American Legion was attended by a large crowd of pleasure-seekers who found plenty of fun and entertainment to satisfy them at the Bridge,-where, amid the war-time decorations, the day in 1918 which ended the greatest conflict in history was celebrated. Horns and various noise makers, gay colored paper hats and streamers of confetti were distributed among the crowd and added color and variety to a -scene of gaiety and merrymaking, and various prizes were carried home t>y those present. While this city observed the day, President Roosevelt visited the tomb of the unknown soldier in Arlington park, center of the nation's observance, and Mrs- Roosevelt attended services at the tomb of Woodfow Wilson in the national cathedral. On the battlefields of Europe Americans gathered in the eight memorial chapels erected in commemoration of the men who died in the war. Frank N.

AGE OF 72^^-^; Ben Stilling, one of McHenry'3 business men and a highly respected citizen, has answered his final sftinmons and friends and acquaintances in Chicago and throughout northern Illinois are bowed in sorrow*at his death. i Mr. Stilling, who had been in poor health or about two years, was coni lined to his bed for less than three ! weeks and passed away at 12:15 p. m., | Sunday, Nov. 11, 1934, sleeping I peacefully away 'into the Great Beyond. Two years ago last July he suffered a very slight st.roke, but soon recovered until the following Thanksgiving time when he was again stricken and was<D,seriously ill in bed for four months. Gradually he recovered from this' attack of illness and by retiring from active business prolonged his life for two years, in" which he enjoyed his beautiful homo on the river, the companionship of his family and recreation and rest. Always of a cheerful disposition, he never complained of his illness or suffering and was an easy and agreeable patient, receiving the loving care of his wife and children, who were with him to the very last- . Born Near McHeary - Ben Stilling was born on the homestead on the Pistakee Bay road on April 16, 1862, and was one of several children of Gerhardt and Catherine Stilling, who owned much of the land on the west side of Pistakee Bay. He lived at home and werUed on the farm until nts marriage to Margareth Miller on June 6, 1888, which took place at St. John's church, Johnsburg. After their marriage, Mx. and Mrs. Stilling went into the .hotel business at Pistakee Bay, building a small place of about three rooms, but enlarging it during the succeeding years as conditions demanded *$3until'they had the largest hotel on the Bay, with accommodations for 200 people- At one time they had a veritable village surrounding them and in addition fo the hotel they supplied .residents of the vicinity with meat and groceries, conducted a barber shop, and, in fatft, supplied the needs of. that community. -• Building the first hotel and practically the first hous# on Pistakee Bay, Mr. Stilling watched the development of that r«gion, from a deserted lake with muddy shores grown up to wild rice and rushes, which were a favorite habitat for duckfi and wild game, to the present beautiful, modern summer resort with its landscaped lawns along gleaming shores, and palatial summer homes, making it one of the popular resorts of Chicagoans. Conducted Family Hotel The Stilling hotel was a family hotel, where the same patrons returned for years in succession, with a weekend demand for rooms which often created an overflow, as many belnsr turned away as were accommodated. The name of this popular summer resort became well know n in Chicago, making many permanent friends for the family. With the coming of the automobile conditions changed and business became more transient and in 1910 Mr. Stilling sold the hotel and bought the Noah Pike house on Fox river at McHenry. where he and his family have since lived. For several years Mr. Stilling represented the Great Northern railroad in its land promotion department and was interested in the sale of North Dakota land. In 1913 he, with his son, Leo, , entered the real estate business under the name of Ben Stilling & Son, with offices on Riverside Drive, where he was active until his retirement because of ill health two years ago. Mr. Stilling was always 'interested in the welfare of the community and its civic improvement and was ready to take part in its various enterprises. He was especially interested in the McHenry Country club, of which he served as a director from the time of its organization until-his resignation last spring and was an active and interested member. He is survived by his wife, Mrs.. Margareth Stilling, one brother, Joseph, who resides on the old homestead, six children, Eva, George. Leo. Lillian, Mrs. Viola Jurgens, Sioux City, Iowa, and Rosalie; a daughtct in-law, Mrs. George Stilling, and two grandchildren, Louise and Robert Stilling, as well as many nieces and nephews and a host of friends. Funeral" services were held Wednesday morning at. 10 o'clock at St. Mary's church, with burial . in St. Mary's cemetery.
