There has been some frost and the time is not far distant when the mos- quito tribe will disappear completely until next season. Superintendent William Edwards feels that the work of furthering the plans for a complete drainage system in the Skokie area, is of such impor- tance that the best interests of the district may now be served by putting the entire working force on the drain- age task. Some of the ditches opened the past summer require finishing touches at various locations to insure free flow of water and there are also new ditches to be dug. The board of directors approved these plans at the meeting last week, since which time much progress has been made, it is reported. The Chicago Sanitary district is pro- ceeding with the dynamiting work, in furtherance of the plan to open the main channel north to the Lake county ditch. The dynamiters are now in the vic- inity of Tower road, gradually working northward. Some spots have already been dynamited in the north area, but there is more to be done. Col. John V. Clinnin Attends Guard Reunion John V. Clinnin, Maple Hill road, Glencoe, who commanded the 130th infantry, formerly the 4th Illinois in- fantry, during the World war, at- tended the annual reunion at Cham- paign on Saturday and Sunday, Sep- tember 29 and 30. This regiment, made up from units of the Illinois na- tional guard located in the various cities of southern Illinois, rendered ex- cellent service throughout the World war. A large delegation from the north shore suburbs and Chicago at- tended this reunion and acted as body- guard for Col. Clinnin, SHOCK KILLS BOY T. E. McElroy, 357 Sunset road, re- ceived word this week of the death of his nephew, Nolte McElroy, at a fraternity initiation at the University of Texas. The shock from a live elec- tric wire caused his death. The boy visited the McElroy home here last August and will be remembered by Winnetka people. Mr. and Mrs. George Shipman, 432 Warwick road, Kenilworth have re- turned from Camp Wabingo, White Lake, Mich.,, where they passed the month at their summer home. Voters Column By HOYT KING REGISTRATION IN COUNTRY TOWNS Voters of the country towns are not included in the special act for control by board of election commissioners as in the city, and are registered under an election act passed in 1865. The two dates for country towns registration will be October 6 and October 16. The polls open at 9 A. M. and close at 5 P. M. Those who voted at the last preced- ing election should be on the poll list and will not need to register. Persons not voting at that election or who have moved into their precinct thirty days before the election must bring it to the attention of the judges. This can be done by personally applying at' the polling place to be registered, and one member of the family may register others members of the family who are legally entitled to vote. The judges themselves may register those "who are well known to them to be electors in said district." However, each voter should see to it that he is on the register. *The law, paragraph 179, Cahill"s Re- vised Statutes, reads: "It shall be the duty of said board (the judges) to enter in said list the names of all persons residing in their election district whose name appears on the poll list kept in said district at the last preceding election." "In making said list, the board (the judges) shall enter therein, in addition to the names on the poll list, the names of all other persons who are well known to them to be electors in said district." An absentee must be registered in order to vote by mail. He may obtain ballot and form of affidavit at County Clerk's office. *Voters not on the list, on election day, may appear and have their vote sworn in by a householder. Albert D.
