Candidate for Trustee The following is a bit on the life of Frank O'Leary, who is running for trustee in the April election. Frank lived fjere as a summer resident in 1929 and ^remained ft summer resident until 1947, when he moved out here permanently. He became active in the organizations immediately. When the fire department was formed he immediately joined the organization and is how a member of their board. When the police department was formed, Mir. O'Leary joined the police force and put many, many hours into this work. At the time of his resignation' he was assistant chief 6f police. t/tr. O'Leary is a serious-minded person and yet a fun-loving individual and has made many friends in the village. Next week there will be another article on another of the candidates for trustee.

Wheii Myrt returns ihoAie' she will be teaming immediately for South Carolina to take care of some more of her grandchildren while their mother is being operated on. This is quite different from what Myrt is u9ed to doing but she loves it and is only too glad to be able to help her girls out. Anne DeCicco left for New York, where she met her sisters, with whom she is flying to Newfoundland to be with her mother, who is very ill. Anne will be gone two weeks.

List Wednesday, I had the pleasure of attending the organizational meeting of the Rockford Diocesan council of the National Council of Catholic Women. Ever since my arrival in Lakemoor I have heard so much of Father Baumihofer and I was surprised to find myself seated next to this important person at the luncheon. Now I can join in the conversations that are held about him and I assure you they are all wonderful.

STATE NEWS GIVES - REPORT ON HUNTING ACCIDENTS IN 19S4 There was one less fatal hunting accident, in Illinois during the 1954 season than a year previously, but four more persons weie injured', according to the official report prepared by the Law Enforcement Division of the Department of Conservation. Thirteen persons were killed while hunting in 1954, 10 of them less than 20 years of age, and 30 others were hurt in nonfatal accidents. Fourteen of those were teen-agers or younger. In 1953, the toll was 14 dead and 26 injured. Two of the fatal injuries were self-inflicted, and five of the non-fatal injuries involved only one hunter. The most unusual accident reported by conservation officers was one in which a dog was responsible for firing the gun. A hunter had laid his shotgun on the ground and was digging in a culvert for a rabbit when his o\frn dog stepped on the trigger, discharging the gun. The hunter w«s struck in the leg by the charge, tout escaped serious injury. Thirty-four of the accidents involved shotguns, eight of them rifles and the other a handgun. The latter case/ a fatality, actually should not. be charged- to hunting, in the opinion of department officials, since it was the result of horseplay before a proposed hunting trip. Rabbit hunters were hardest hit dm ing the recent season, largely because there are more of that type of hunters in Illinois than any other one variety. Nineteen of the accidents occurred seeking cottontails.' Nine of the accidents came in quest of squirrels, six pheasant hunting, tljree after pigeons or doves, and one each hunting quail and' crows. Four of the fatal accidents were caused by hunters moving into the line of fire of a companion. Two were the result of1 catching the trigger in undergrowth, two were caused by stumbling, and one each w<m the result of placing a" loaded gun in a car, crossing a fence, dropping a gun, and a defective gun. Five of the non-fatal injuries were caused by stumbling, four by one hunter swinging <?». game in motion, four by nftistakijig' another hunter for game, And three by clubbing injured game or cover with the butt of a gun. One good idea is to cut > out the big expenditures so that you don't need to be niggardly in little expenditures. Ready Mixed [ ^ Concrete DR. HENRY FREUND OPTOMETRIST At 136 S.
