Frank J. Hendricks, becaufcl Ifiik is a public official who believes his first duty is to the people who elected him in administering the affairs of the county clerk's office, which has become the most important of any of the county offices in McHenry county. Occasionally Mr. Still gets away for a day and interviews voters from whom he is asking support upon the record he has made, but it will be impossible for him to make a county canvass and see the voters personally without neglecting the duties incumbent upon him. His appeal to the electors of the county, men and women alike, will be on the plane of having given the people of McHenry county the best service of which he is capable. ^ Strong Sapport 1b In his home city of Woodstock, where Mr. Still is best known, may be found the fullest appreciation of this service in the volume of support he is receiving for renomination. From men in all stations of life may be heard expressions of approval of his record and flat declarations of support and votes in the April 11 primary.

Think Candidate for County Treasurer has proven woSrthy of every trust which has been imposed upon him. As mayor of Woodstock and as Supervisor he has been known for the care he has exercised over the expenditure of the taxpayer's money. Just as Walters has served your money in the minor offices be has held, he will care for it properly and wi|h economy as County Treasurer. As Supervisor his reputation has gone over the entire county as "watch-dog of the treasury." Bills which get by him must be right and he has not hesitated to stop his best friend before passing a bill of which he was in doubt. ' It is a notorious fact that much of the opposition to Walters for Treasurer eminates from the fact that he has at various times blocked minor raids on the county treasury, Think it over!
