"fin filling in while Eve takes a breather. No, she's not afraid her Jijords might influence you, shejU' be back on the job next Wfflfe f ^ ' . £Your Attention, Please Gafci beach, house shall be a P°%g place two times this mofitti. First, it shall be open. Saturday April 13,^ from J.2 noon until 7 p.m., in order that we may elect members to act on our school board. This election should not be overlooked, for it concerns oia- .childrens' education and in .theft* hands lies the future of our coiliitry. Education is a blessing aijd we have the privilege of seeing that it is in the hands of people who will handle it wisely. 0p$cond, it shall be open Tuesday, April 16, from 6 a.m. until 5 p.m. inj order that we may elect the members of our village board. vThis is a nice little community with intelligent people living here --people who need no one to help them figure out how to vote. This event should in no way resemble large scale politics. There is nothing to be gained by the candidates but a little prestige and the privyhge of working for the good of us all. The present village board members were put where thej are by us--with the exception of one appointee. They had the difficult job of laying the foundation of our new village. This procedure could have been observed an;1 comments made pro and con by anyone interested, simply by attending the board meetings the second and fourth Monday of •Very month. It always shall bg, so. The people on the two existing tickets are our neighbors. We know them to be respected citiens with the good of the community at heart. Go to the polls on April 16 and elect the neighbor you feel is best suited for the job --but beware of he who speaks ill of his brother--no good ever came «f such a thing. There surely is! o one among us who is driven . by personal aspirations. If wc .knew that, to be so, we'd know ifor sure where to put our X's. wouldn't we? the month of April. Sure seems strange. Kinda miss it, don't you? Sportsmen's Club Sunday, April 7, there will. be a prize shoot on the trap range located on the Granger property. Ringwood Road, south of Rt. 120. The prizes will be hams and chickens for the lucky marksmen and the public is invited to participate. Sounds like „fun. How good is your eye? Maybe you can take home a dinner! Egg Roll The Easter egg hunt for the children of the community will be held Sunday, April 21. Under the -apable direction of chairman Don Parenti and his committee, this should be a wondrous day for our youngsters. For Those Who Missed The deadline for the purchase of village vehicle stickers and dog tags was April 1. If any of us has slipped up, there is a grace period ending Friday, April 5. Starting Saturday, April 6, our police department will give tickets to car owners who do not have the '57 stickers on their cars. Violators will be prosecuted The law applies to all of us and there shall be no exceptions after April 5. Welcome It will be very nice indeed to have Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Fry as neighbors.

A Close Call That was Jake Kantorski's unfortunate experience March 23. Not feeling well, he had made a purchase of a dozen yellow and red roses as a special gift for his wife, Mary. He brought them home to her and collapsed. A doctor was summoned and it was discovered he was a victim of pneumonia. The following Sunday and Monday, he lay at the point of death.

Congratulations to all the ydUng Be Sure To Sign Tax Return Thousands of incomplete tax returns are being received by the Chicago office of the internal revenue service, district director H. Alan Long has disclosed. The returns lack one or both of the required signatures, Long said, or they have printed "signatures" which are not acceptable. "While we naturally assume that failure to sign is due to an oversight, we can't, accept such returns and we are compelled to send them back. Since our mail is heavy during the filing season, the incomplete return may not go back to the taxpayer until days or weeks after it is sent in. "In the case of a taxpayer seeking a refund, an unfortunate delay may result, and, in the case of one owing additional tax and ever, sending a check to pay it, ho can't get credit until the return is completed. The check goes back along with the return, since they must be processed together. "So please, Mr. and Mrs. Taxpayer, take heed and sign; one» signature for single persons, two for married couples if filing jointly. And please sign as you have entered your nan^e or names at the top of the form," Mr. Long asked. '"Care by the taxpayer to this important requirement will help all of* us."
