A mittimu? to hold him was issued by Irving Roth, Lily Lak« police magistrate. until the inquest Saturday inorning, the charge being manslaughter. Hynes testified he had done everything jSossible to avoid hitting Huemann, but that he had apparently not seen the car or heard the warning of the horn. Huemann was in the west bound lane when hit. His body was thrown into the eastbound lane. E. H. Cook of Huntley, coroner, presided at the inquest. Sgt. Lester Bacon, state police, took Hynes to the inquest.

KENT CHURCH SERVICES One .week from next Monday, on June 5, 1939, judicial elections will be held in every part of Illinois, including Cook county. These judicial elections are held eVery six years, at which time judges are elected to the circuit and supreme courts of Illinois. The office of circuit judge is of great importance to the common people. These judges exercise great power over the lives and property rights of every citizen. Their election should be an event of first importance in which every vqter should partieipate. Unfortunately in a district like burs, which includes four populous and important counties --- Boone, McHenry, Lake and Winnebago, the voters take too much for granted. Our district has always been favored with wise and conscientious judges, sincerely devoted to the welfare of the people whom they serve, and inspired by a! determination to do their full duty in j serving the people. ! In fact, as the writer reviews the \ years of the past during which he has i had a personal acquaintance with these j judges, we are reminded of the sincere love and affection which the people of; McHenry county had for the -late; Judges Charles H. Donnelly and Ed-1 ward D. Shurtleff, who over a combined period of forty years sewed them with such fatherly devotion and un-, ceasing watchfulness for their welfare. Likewise in the other counties there has been a glittering array of legal talent and judicial wisdom which has graced the bench in tly years gone by. Threfe prominent citizens have been selected for election as judges for this district by the Republicans. Two of these men, Judges Ralph J. Dady of Waukegan and William L. Pierce of. Belvidere, ar^ * already serving with honor and credit on the circuit bencli, while the third. Attorney Thomas fi. Gill of Rockford, has keen selected by the Winnebago county central committee to succeed Judges Arthur E. Fisher, who because of advancing age and infirmities decided rot to be a candidate for re-election. There will be no doubt as to the outcome of this election providing the voters turn out. This is a normal Republican district, ordinarily casting about two Republican votes for every Democratic. If the Republicans turn out to vote there can b* no question but that the three Republican c*ndidaes will be easily elected.

JOHN SCHEID as the Juniors and Seniors anticipated their annual formal banquet held at Mrs. Harrison's home at Pistakee Bay. For many it was the first formal affair they had ever attended. And McHenry can well be proud of its boys and girls, not only in how well they appear in evening dress, but in how well they conduct themselves on such an occasion. It is rather difficult to accommodate eighty-eight people but Mrs. Harrison's large glassed-in porch seemed to give ample space. The tables were attractively arranged and decorated with flowers. When the girls in their beautiful dresses and the boys in their summer suits were seated^ no other decoration was necessary.
