The first steps to be taken will be the erection of a veranda across the front of the building, fac-- ing Milwaukee avenue, and the ren-- ovating of the first floor. It is be-- liowg that this work can be com-- pleted by Armistice day at which time (the building will be thrown open to the public. It is tie plan of the legion to lower the level of the entrance to the building, so that the veranda and the first floor will be on a level. The Libertyville's old town hall, erect-- ed in 1894, an« for many years the ecenter of social and civic activities in the township, is to be completely remodeled in an effort to bring back some of its lost prestige as a com-- munity center, according to an-- noun?ement made this week by offic-- ers of the Libertyville American Le-- gion |post, who have had charge of the building for several years.

All four were discharged by the justice on payment of the required fees and Allen, 3853 Giles Ave. Had Fictitious Plates Auto Owners Pinched er has paid the tax, if he does not affix the tag to the car where it can be_seen. It is a violation of the ve-- hicle license ordinance not to have the tag prominently displayed on the car for which it was issued. Marshal Druba asks that all those who have not yet secured the license Plate, to do so at once and avoid police surveillance. There are about a bundred car owners in the village who have not as yet paid the tax and, according to the marshal, thore will be no letup on the part of the police until all have paid. . Mr. Druba wishes to let the peo-- plevof the village know that waen-- ever they get a ticket they are re-- quired to report at the police station no matter whether they have secur-- ed the license tag or not. The police in checking over the cars on the streets find that many cars have no Wheel Tax Receipts _ Reach Total of $4299 The number of vehicles licensed are shown as follows: Passenger automobiles, 731; trucks, 128; two-- horse teams, 5; onehorse 2, and four motorcycles. Revenues from the ve-- hicle tax are used for repairing the streets and keeping them clean. Libertyville car owners have paid $4299 to the vehicle license fund since the first of the year. This is $299 more taan the total for last year, which was approximately $4,000, according to O. J. Boehm, vil-- lage clerk. ter ones because of the high price, and the refusal of the state highway department to approve the stop and go signs. No action was taken on the matter at the meeting Tuesday, as it is thought tae state will in the near future adopt a policy of placing regulation traffic lights on all state highways.
