I and others have heard it said that some people don't like the way the money is being spent or they don't like the way things are done in the community, well, the elected officers can only do so much when only a handful of residents attend the meetings. If you have any complaints or compliments come out to the meetings and let your voice be heard. The officers are not the only ones having obligations after being sworn into office, YOU too have an obligation and a respon­ sibility to work with and stand behind the persons who are working for your benefit. See you next week. Old paper is recycled here. Sa lvaged paper i s dumped in to va t s where i t i s turned back in tw pu lp . The pulp goes through a thorough washing cycle. And out come rolls of l'resh paper, ready lor reuse. Know how many pounds of paper can be made from the average tree? 118 pounds. So taking 1 ton of old paper and turning it into new paper will save 17 trees from being cut down. It's called recycling. And the power behind recycling? It's electricity. ' The machines that take out the foreign material--the staples and paper clips-- and de-ink the paper and turn it into pulp are powered by electricity. The complete cycle takes about 90 minutes. And nowadays, we have paper mills devoted exclusively to recycling old paper and turning it into rolls of bright fresh paper. We're proud that electricity helps make all kinds of recycling possible. Because reducing litter and conserving resources is as important to us as it is to you. Commonwealth Edison concern tor your total environment e Vycital, Green street.

Their appreciation was ex­ pressed in a statement by Norman K. Dasenbrook, executive vice-president of Goodwill Industries. According to the annual report, these contributions made it possible to serve an average of 125 clients. Of these over forty were placed in employment outside of Goodwill Industries. During the year over 221,000 hours of employment and training were provided. Vocational evaluations were given to 111. Some eighty-nine clients were served in the work adjustment program.

I, a first in the history of the Secretary of State's of­ fice.

Green St. McHenry, III. 385-5500 Mahin Suggests Illegal Taxes May Be In Effect Illinois Revenue Director George E. Mahin said that consumers may be paying illegal taxes on goods and services in the state. Under new legislation signed by Gov. Richard B. Ogilvie in August, consumers now have the right to action against businessmen or nrterchants who engage in sura illegal prac­ tices. / It is a misdemeanor for the seller to knowingly collect for tax liability when in fact the receipts are not subject to tax or knowingly to over-collect any amount for tax purposes, Mahin said. Businessmen or merchants who violate the law are subject to a maximum fine of $1,000 or up to six months imprisonment, or both, for each offense. The Department of Revenue has received complaints from taxpayers who have been overcharged on retailers' occupation tax (sales tax) and on related taxes and from persons who have been charged tax when no tax was due. On every complaint received, Mahin said, the department notifies the seller the complaint has been made and that, if true, the seller is violating the law and should discontinue this immediately. If additional complaints are received against the same seller, the department will take legal action to stop the practice. "An example of illegal taxation is the repairman who pays tax on the cost of repair parts and materials, but who collects from his customers on the marked-up selling price of such property -- and sometimes on the repair charge itself. Collection of tax on magazines, bottle deposits and food stamp redemption is also illegal," Mahin noted. He urged consumers who are subjected to illegal taxation to contact the investigation division of the Illinois Department of Revenue. Room 715,160 N.
