Mr. Cernocky, wbo four years ago purchased property at Fox River Grove, and who has been an important factor in the development of that rapidly growing community, sees a bright future for the property in the •trinity of BuVton's bridge. "Within a comparatively short time X expect to see a prosperous village standing on what is now farm land at Burton's bridge. This is one of the most beautiful spots along the Fox river, and we have control and will to buy no cattle except where an accredited veterinarian is used. 8. To accredit responsible dealers. 9.

"The possibilities here are unlimited. "Four or five years ago when I bought my corner at Fox River Grove many people said I was crazy. You have all seen the wonderful strides that village has made in the last few yefu*s. I predict a similar development at Burton's bridge." 8ome time ago Mr. Cernocky purchased four lots at the west end of Burton's bridge. These lots were sold recently to his sister and brotherin- law, Mr. and Mrs. Sam Salverson. Mr. Salverson will erect a modern store building on the property and open a first-class grocery and general Store in the near future. A building .10x75 feet will be erected. l' A building, which will be used as a real estate office, from which the sale of lots in the new subdivision will be hfndled, will be erected on the Mc- Gfrbe farm in the near future.

WORK IS HALTED FOB WINTER 16 last stretch of cement on the MeHenry-Woodstock road was laid on Tuesday of this week and the activifctia, so far as cement laying is concerned, are now at an end until next spring, when the work will be resumed. Grading and shouldering of the completed stretch will continue, we| are told, as'long as weather will lit. As stated in these columns the cementing on the Mc- H*nry-Volo stretch came to a stop nearly a month ago. The cement construction on the east section has ^retched a point just east of Lily lake, the completed stretch on the ' west road reaches about 200 feet on the other side of Clark's corners, ltho we have not had official inforjition on the matter, it is very likely that both roads will be open to travel during .the coming winter. In fact, most of the completed stretches of both sections are already open to travel. The completed section on the east road measures about two miles, *rh3e approximately three miles have been finished in the west section. "When once the MeHenry-Woodstock road is thrown open to travel it will be possible to drive over to the county Beat the old way instead of taking the •outh road as has been the custom Hius far this year.

RowSrd R. Perry, Jr., son of Col. Howard R. Perry and grandson of Mr. and Mrs. James B. Perry of this city, has been ordered to the Phillipine islands. Lieut. Perry has been stationed at Washington, D. C., during the past several years, where he has been serving on the staff of Gen. Bandholtz in command of the department in that city. According to orders, Lieut. Perry will sail from New York city on December 5* and will make the voyage to San Francisco via the Panama canal. However, he does not expect to sail for Manila until some time after the first of the year. It is his hope to be able to stop off at Honolulu on bis way to Manila long enough to pay his parents a visit at that point. This will be his second trip to Manila as he was with his parents some years ago while his father was stationed on the island. In fact, he attended high school and graduated at that point. Lieut. Perry was born in this city during the Spanish-American war and therefore McHenry's unusual interest in this young man.

This non-sectarian, non-secret organisation offers did opportunity for hearty co-Metation in a crusade for good luMpjl to every cbild and adult in MeHenry county. Our county association 4s under the direction of the state and the state to the national organization. From a small beginning it has grown to large proportions reaching every community in the great state of Illinois. From a money viewpoint the association perhaps could have adopted a surer method of securing funds than the annual Christmas seal sale, but from an educational viewpoint no better method could have been devised. The annual Christmas seal sale interests all the people. It is a health message as nothing else could be. Our activities are along educational lings, thru conferences, lectures, vis-) iting schools, clubs, homes, etc. The policy of the association is to show the p«ople their problems and thru our county nurse aid them in meeting them. Mr. Sunderlin has appointed Mrs. Emma Buell as chairman of the county work. She will have charge of the distribution of the bonds and Christmas seals. The month of December has been set apart as Christmas seal month. Our total receipts from the sale of bonds and seals during the month of December last year was $1,236.96. Twenty-five percent was sent to Springfield for the state association and seventy-five percent, kept in the county for local work.

On account of its odor, serious accidents from •; escaping gas are comparatively rare, but there are probably few J causes of fires which exceed those resulting £ram impropsc y "amateur" wiring for electric current. tit**" 6 In the case of gas, practically all accidents, of whatever kind, are due to carelessness or ignorance of precautions that the company is taking to protect its customers. The local company (and we presume all its branches) maintain a twenty-four hour service to take care of leaks reported to them, and are ready at all reasonable times to shut off a service, where there is work to be done or changes made, and turn it on again as soon as the job is completed. For this service, either the "running down" of leaks or turning on or off a service, there is no charge. Nor is there a profit charged for making connections or changes involving work and material which the company are not required to furnish. This department is run at as near a cost basis as possible--in fact, it shows a regular loss--but is maintained for the good of the service and for the benefit of customers. Since the Marseilles tragedy numerous calls have come into the local office reporting leaks, some of which were stated to be of weeks standing. As a matter of precaution for both health and safety a gas leak should be reported as soon as discovered. When the use of electricity first became at all general, it was a mysterious something which was recognized as dangerous, and to a great extent it took care of itself from amateur tampering. But ramiliarity soon bred contempt and there has been any amount of defective wiring done by people who do not understand the dangers and hazards or how to avoid them. The general use of electricity h«s become recognized as one of the great causes of increased fire losses, and a large proportion of them are directly traceable to the careless use and handling of the current. The early wiring, even by professionals, is now recognized as often defective and should have "the once over" by a man who .knows his business. Electricity is still so comparatively new that what are now unavoidable accidents occur, but a large proportion of these can be avoided by the use of proper care and precaution. , There is nothing in our daily life more generally misunderstood or misrepresented than many of our public utilities. They go to great lengths in the protection of the lives and property of their customers and a great deal of this service is actually free to customers. It is a Safe plan in cases of trouble or changes to talk it over with the companies' representatives. This will cost you nothing, and may save life or property. r- 4 - ' "1%© sfcore MRtorial 1» imprinted beaoM it direct way the necessity for prompt, careful OF NORTHERN ILLINOIS HI Whatever your make is of battery or your kind of battery trouble, we are here to be of ser Vice to you . . 1*1 Williams Crystal Lake, Plione2l mem*.
