These storage houses are maintained for the storage and care of such property of the association as marine channel lamps, markers and weed cutterf. Dredging was done in the channel between Channel lake and Lake Marie, a very much needed improvement. A new channel was dredged in Pistakee lake from the C. M. & St. P. railroad bridge out into Pistakee lake, providing a channel for motor boats between Pistakee lake and Nippersink lake, taking the motor boat travel away from the shore line thru the old channel, which was a dangerous feature, due to the narrowness of the old channel and the thick inhabitation along the old channel where resorters were constantly bathing. All channels were plainly marked with white markers and flags, making the navigation of the various lakes easy and accessable to the stranger by day, and the installation of thirtythree large marine lamps mounted on substantial st$el posts in the motor boat channels, guiding the navigator at night, which made night navigation safe and possibk), which it was not in past years. Two modern weed cutters were purchased and operated during the season, which kept all the public channels free of weeds to such an extent that in the 1921 season one could travel in a motor boat from one end of the district to another without the fear of being delayed or disabled due to the former excessive weed growth. Also many acres .of private water fronts, formerly an impassable stretch of weed growth, were converted into clear, sanitary, navigable water fronts. This work was efficiently accomplished under the direction of a conscientious superintendent, and the continuation of such work is of the utmost importance to the district. The engineering committee has also taken up with the federal government and railroad officials the removal of obstructions under the C. M. & St. P. R. R. bridge between Nippersink and Pistakee lakes and has made a request that this railroad bridge be manned with a permanent bridge tender to accommodate unhindered navigation of this channel The committee has also been active with regard to the raising of the bridges across Squaw creek between Fox lake and Long lake to permit better navigation thru this channel. The committee has requested the removal by the state of dangerous obstructions under Burton's bridge over the Fox river below the McHenry dam and the red Bridge across the Fox river north of Grass, lake. Action has been taken by the committee to have a bridge erected across Nippersink creek in order to get a thorofare thru from Fox Lake to Johnsburg and McHenry west of Pistakee lake. The proper authorities have been consulted on this matter and are giving same their attention. This would be a big improvement for the locality, due to the fact that in case of emergency help of any kind could go between the towns of Fox Lake, Johnsburg and McHenry in a very short space of time, and we do not know when an emergency might arise where this facility would prove its value. have heretofore taken place by profita car at your own price be there on March 25.
