OPEN KIN9C18 A new business venture for the Wauconda community are the modern dog kennels being operated on the former Hallock farm on Route 12, just north of the village limits, by Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Madia. The Madias have been summer residents of Island Lake for some time, and took up the dog enterprise at their home there last fall. They recently purchased the Hallock farm and moved to the remodeled home about three weeks ago. Several new buildings have been erected for kennels and the farm is rapidly becoming a show place of interest to dog fanciers.

A report from the American* Automobile association shows thai many of last year's estimated 4,500,000 radiator repair jobs and 700,000 new radiator installation^ could have been avoide^ by draining out old water and anti-freeze solution. Radiator replacement alone consumed about 35,000.000 pounds of copper, brass and lead --materials now on the mobilization scarce list. Motorists can avert bills as high as $75 for a new radiator, the club stated, by following a four-point procedure for checking the cooling system in their automobiles. Drivers should make a habit of (1) draining and discarding the old anti-freeze solution; (2) flushing the coo'iing system; (3) adding fresh water; and (4) installing a good rust inhibitor for late spring and early summer driving. It is best that even high quality anti-freeze should not be used a second season, for their rust inhibitors may weaken and lose their effectiveness. He-use of antifreeze may cause expensive repairs. Actually, changing cooling solutions periodically makes the same good? sense «s changing motor oil. In stressing the dangers of reusing anti-freeze, the club cited an evaluation made by the National Bureau of Standards, which declared: "Under some conditions, it possible to use a solution for mor than one season without harm. The requisite chemical {tnalysif to determine whether a solution is capable of further use, however/ is much more expensive than anti-v freeze. "In view of the comparative cost of anti-freeze and of even so minor a replacement part as a wate?}pump or radiator, it is certainly cheaper in the long run to use a new solution each year. Under no circumstance should antifreeze solution remain In the' cooling syg£ffn during the suin-*^ mer, as its deterioration will btf much more rapid under summer driving conditions."
