"Members have been told their real estate taxes would be $52 a year more on a $10,- OUO assessed value. I do not believe the average assessed value in Lakeland Park is even close to $10,000 since it is only 60 per cent of your actual home value. "Was the difference between the tax rate for Lakeland Park and the city of McHenry actually 52 cents? "Association dues and the road assessment cost members $10 per year. How much more in actual dollars would it cost them if they were annexed to McHenry? I think it would be much less than the people have been lead to believe. "Is the Lakeland Park Property Owners association's board of directors correct in allowing only members to vote on annexation? How about all the property owners who are not members of the association? "How many septic systems are not working properly in Lakeland Park, and what is the cost to the individual for a new system? "When new homes are built now, why are the lots first built up to 46 feet and what happens if this is done next to your home. "Carol J. Altmann "4221 W. Parkway Ave. "Lakeland Park" ldenttal sections can compare with Whispering Hills and its rapid growth within one and one-half years. Our home was the first, now there are about forty-eight. This section is now reserved for folks over 65. It is almost unbelievable to see how the older folks have planted beautiful trees, flowers and carpetlike lawns. The few younger home owners here, many of. whom travel to Chicago to work, deserve great credit for the way they have beatified their property. Work is being started on Construction of A social center for the older folks, which we look forward to very much. There will be a luncheon next Saturday for the Whispering Hill billies. "Joe Gregg "1314 W. Jasper Drive" COURT BRIEFS BOUQUETS TO "OVER 65" This section of the vast area contacted by the Plaindealer seems to be entirely overlooked by our reporters. Few new res- Charles Renwick of 1401 N. Riverside Drive, McHenry, was given a $250 suspended fine and paid costs of $15.60 on a charge of disorderly conduct in the court of Justice of the Peace Charles M. Adams last Saturday. Mr. Renwick was arrested at approximately 1 o'clock on Saturday by Deputy Sheriff Ray L. Chirempes. The charge was disorderly conduct as a result of an altercation in the Dog House tavern in Johnsburg. The complaint was signed by the proprietor, Gloria DoVecchio. Richard Jung of Solon Mills was fined $10 for speeding. Failure to yield the rightof- way was the charge against Edward A. Schwabauer of McHenry, who paid $15, and John Nienhuis of Woodstock, whose fine was $10. Martin J. Peters of Chicago was charged with following too closely and fined $13. Marshall P. Pearson of rural McHenry had an $8 fine imposed for disobeying a red light. Mervyn M. Schmitt of Mc- Cullom Lake was fined $T for following too closely. Arthur Frenssen, 24, of Wonder Lake was fined $200 and costs by Justice of the Peace Joseph Ritter when he appeared in court last week to answer a charge of selling mortgaged property. He was charged with selling a boat on which Blackhawk Loans, IncT," held a lien amounting to more than $600. Frenssen also made restitution. To The Voters Of McHenry County On a separate ballot in the general election on November 6, McHenry County citizens will be asked to vote for or against an additional tax for salaries of deputy sheriffs to be assigned as highway patrolmen. This increased tax should be voted against. The proposed .02% tax would add to the financial"burden of this county more than $75,000 each year, and it would increase the present whopping salary expense of the Sheriff's office from $99,000 to $174,000, and the tax monies available to the Sheriff's office each year would be more than the combined total expense of the County Clerk's office, the County Treasurer's office and the Circuit Court Clerk's office. We feel the people of McHenry County are entitled to a demonstration that the present facilities of the Sheriff's office are being utilized as effectively, efficiently and economically as possible, before there can be justification for such a tremendous increase in the amount of money spent by the Sheriff's office. It would be too late to require such a demonstration after the election, and no demonstration has been made so far. On that basis, we conclude that the need for an additional $75,000 a year for the Sheriff's office has not been shown, and voters should vote "No" on this proposition pn November 6. WM. A. GIBLIN For Democratic Central Committee HERBERT FRANKS For Young Democratic Organization THERESA SCHULTZ For Democratic Women's Organization of Mo Henry County (Adv.) OBITUARIES KfVTHRYN LOBITZ Rev.

CRASH 'TEEN PARTY Six youths, 18 and 19 years of age, were apprehended Monday night by sheriff's deputies in a field where a beer party was said to have been in progress. The 'teen-agers were released on bond Tuesday morning, and the complaint against them is criminal trespass to land and purchase or use of alcoholic liquor.

McHenry topped the foods category with $22,473.46 and was also high for miscellaneous sales with $1,432.48. JUDGE EXPRESSES ARQUMEMT AGAINST JUDICIAL BALLOT Justice of the Peace Charles M. Adams of McHenry last Saturday noon presented a talk before the M c H e n r y Township board concerning his feelings on the Judicial Amendmeht which will be voted on next week Tuesday. In speaking to the board, he said: "If it carries, the people of Illinois will not be getting judicial reform at all, but will be taking a step away from the democratic form of government and a step toward autocratic control of the judiciary." He continued: "The fundamental of our system of government is that of checks arid balances, by which one of the three branches of government, which are the judicial, legislative, and executive, serve as a check upon the other two and vice versa. Under this principle, it is fundamental that an unbalance of power shall never be created in one branch of government to the detriment or weaking of the other two. "This so-called Judicial Reform bill will go a long way toward upsetting this system of checks and balances. The proponents of this bill will make the claim that its passage will take the judiciary out of politics. On the contrary, it will be putting them right in politics. Under this amendment, your circuit judges, who are and should be key figures in the administrations of Justice and preservation of democracy, will be frozen Into office, can have no opponent in an election after they aw in office. "It is a political axiom that you can't beat something with nothing, and if you wish to remove a judge from office, you have to have an opponent to run against him. Under this amendment, the circuit judge may no longer have an opponent. Under the tenure provision of this amendment, you have a Grandfather clause to perpetuate the judge in office on the principle of a one man election. It has been well called a Russian ballot. "Speaking of politics in another sense, what' is wrong with honest politics? What is> wrong with having our judges stand for election, when they desire election or re-election, againstsan opponent? When an opponent desires to contest the election of an incumbent he may stand with his party, or be independent which some of us have done, and we may attack or criticize the record of our opponent, and where thft public may hear both sides of the argument for or against either man?" PRECINCTS DECREASE Illinois will have a total of 10,285 voting precincts for the Nov. 6 general election, a decrease of 49 precincts from the number for the April primary, Secretary of State Charles F. Carpentier said this week. "HOLIDAY PAH" Thl?

Rather puzzling to some people is the ability of stomach acids to digest a variety of heavy foods without damaging stomach walls which are living tissue. Actually, there are many self-regulating factors which prevent secretion of hydrochloric acid in amounts damaging to the stomach. Food itself acts as a buffer • to reduce the effects of the acid, as do saliva, enzymes, peristalsis of the stomach and stomach mucus. There is nothing puzzling, however, about the high standards of quality and service obs e r v e d a t MILLSTREAM DRUGS, INC. in the filling of all prescriptions.
