The work was beautifully portrayed by those participating and was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

POLICE HAVE NAMES OF DRIVERS WHO HAD LICENSES REVOKED Names and addresses of all persons whose driver licenses, chauffeur licenses or driving privileges are revoked are being sent to the state's attorneys, sheriffs and chiefs of police in the home counties and towns of those persons, Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier has announced. The purpose of notifying local enforcement officials, Secretary Carpentier said, is to prevent those individuals whose licenses or privileges have been revoked from, continuing to use the state's Streets and highways in violation of the law. Farmer's Question Corneri >hh*ID »v twricn FhdMIm Nr AhImI ImM WHAT ABOUT 1 BLACKLEG? Qt Are all farm animals subject to blackleg, or Just cattle? A: Principally young cattle between six months and two years of age. Goats and sheep are also .. _ .. .. ... .„ . susceptible, but other animals are apparently immune. Q: What causes It? The presence of clopds in this picture add greatly to the impact ot an otherwise typic»I snapshot of famed Ml. Ru-hmuif. Put Clouds in Your Picture /^LOUDS in the sky don't always V-i mean gray days. Often they are J fleecy white and billowy, adding § beauty to a clear blue sky. They may play p big part in | making us decide to J5$|ure a certain scene--and iffalttfeppointing to find that the fiintfed. picture is completely cloudleslflS^avoid such disappointment, yOt)~g*e a simple | filter. It's known atf%:_8ky filter ; and will go a loq|p^0«y toward ^ giving your sceni^itypuhots a • professional touch. can use ' one on practically any Camera. Of course, the filter, doesn't put clouds in your pictuii^|f magic. The principle on whictK^works is simple and straigfetfon^rd. The - filter lets all the light through to tiie lens ot the camera, with the exception of some pf the blue light from the, sky, which It absorbs. By cutting out some of the blue light, the sky is darkened and thus the clouds become more outstanding. While we're on the subject of accessory items--there are others which can also be used most effectively even in the most casual snapshooting. In common with the sky filter, they have the advantage of being easy to use and inexpensive. One of the most important of these, as I've pointed out in previous columns, is the closeup attachment. Another is the auto release, which allows everyone to be in the picture. You place the camera on a tripod or other solid support, find your picture in the viewfinder, set the auto release, and you have 10 seconds in which to take your place in the picture At that point the auto release snaps the picture for you. These little gadgets are fun to use, and well worth the small cost. Next time you're going to your photo dealer's, take your camera along and talk to him about the I various accessories you can use with it | --John Van Guilder the policy of his office to continue sending the names to local officials as soon as additional revocations a: e made. "One of the principals reasons why I felt Illinois needed a new Drivers License Act was to give the state some control over 'repeaters,' those drivers who consistently show a disregard for traffic laws and the safety of others," < Secretary * Carpentier said. "To aid local officials in enforcing the Drivers License Act, this policy of notification has been instituted," Secretary Carpentier said. Secretary Carpentier pointed out that the minimum punishment for a person who is convicted of driving after his license or privileges have been revoked is imprisonment for seven ij-flays. The jail sentence may be as much as one year, and in addition, a fine of not more than $1,000 may be imposed. TEST ROAD An experimental pavement of special design, to be constructed in LaSalle county between the cities of LaSalle and Ottawa, is expected to yield information which will have important influence upon future highway plans throughout the United States, and make it possible to build better roads for less money. This prediction was made by Elmer R. Knight, acting chief engineer of the state Division of Highways, as he addressed the Illinois State Chamber of Commerce in Chicago last week.

A: All calves In blackleg appas should be Vaccinated' when three or four months old. In some areas, where 'complicated' blackleg is a hazard, veterinarians may use m combined vaccine for best protection. Complicated blackleg is caused by two different germs. Q: When Is blackleg likely to occur? A: The worst danger season is during the spring and summer months when cattle are on pasture. Farmers may wrongly blame blackleg losses dli lightning or poisonous plants. \ . Q: What should be done with carcasses of animals which have died from blackleg? A: They should be burned or buried deeply under lime to prevent the infection from spreading. NOTE--Due to space limitation, general questions cannot be handled by this column. reavement.
