And now to all of those loyal friends who so staunchly stood with me all through the campaign may I say: - I cannot thank you with words, but an appreciation abides in my heart which so,me time, somehow, I hope I may be able to reflect by action and deed that you may know the real gratitude I feel toward you.

This is nofWthe first) time that swans have beln seen either on Grayslake or on neighboring lakes, but they are not a common sight, and usually there are but two or three of them. The birds probably arrived here during the night, and early Mohday were seten near the Wn.i Mahotcha home. They were on the lake at dusk, but were missing the next morning. The birds, which have spotless white plumage, red bills, surmounted by a black knob. and black legs, are well known for their graceful and stately appearance. We are all familiar with the appearance of swans in par.ks, but it is quite a thrill to see them, so- to speak, at our own back doors. , : Martha Public Liability insurance ori rour automobile defends any legal action, defrays legal expense, court costs and pays any judgment up to the limits of your policy.
