Wonder Lake Cornell Hears Report On Island The Wonder Lake council met Sunday to hear a report from a committee named to investigate the 12-acre island situation which has been disturbing many of our residents. Joseph Elliott, president of the council, presided. Herbert Berry made the commttee report It was brought out at the meeting that that the island, recently subdivided, and which many feel Will cause pollution in the lake and which others feel ahould belong to the people who reside in the area, is now a part of White Oaks subdivision No. 2. It was also brought out that no island was shown in the original plat of the subdivision. All delegates to the various subdivisions were asked to take the reports back to their associations and a return to a meeting Sept. 22 to decide whether the island matter should be taken to court and, if it goes to court, the method of financing. It was estimated that the cost to take the case all the way to the supreme court If necessary would cost about $3,000 or from $3 to $5 per home owner. Berry told the Sunday group that there is no precedent in the Illinois court for such a ease and the entire question would be decided on whether the island was farm land or a part of the lake. GETS CHANNEL CAT Herb Giesler, Blue Island, really has something to tell his friends about. He was visiting the Paul Matses Sunday and caught a five and three-quarter pound channel catfish in the lake in front of the William Heser residence on the lake front HOME OWNERS TO MEET The home owners of Hickory Falls will meet Sunday at 11 a.m. in the Legion home to discuss matters important to that subdivision. •AS INJURE* BACK Warren Tallman has returned from the Woodstock hospital, where be was a patient for the past week suffering from on in jured back.

Labor Day ^ t^iditionally has marked the close of the vacation season. But now shrewd planners are taking advantage of the offseason prices, smaller crowds and pleasant weather to be found during the rest of the mopth. September will usually mean a safer trip for tourists. A decrease fn the number of cars on the road not only lessens the chance of accidents but takes away much of the pleasure that attends highway driving in the midst of the tourist season. ^ Rates at many hotels, inns lodges and motels drop an estimated 10 to 30 percent at the end of the touring season. This saving can be accompanied by better accommodations as thinning crowds give the tourist a better selection. He can also anticipate more personal attention. Many rooorta stay o»#a Into October. With the sxcOpttOn of the all-year parks, the National Paris close officially about Sept 15 bg Hmaln open tor public travel until the arrival of unfavorable ^e*- ther. Some state parks and foreais offer accommodations all yew* round; the others are popular scenic and recreational attractions through September and October.
