This cannot be given unless the village undertakes a new court action asking the state's attorney to petition the circuit court to hand down a decision on the legality of the formation of the incorporation of the village. According to information rtvealed at the meeting, the state of Illinois has never? ruled on the counting or discounting of spoil- Jed ballots in such an election. The state has, however, ruled on an aldermanic' election that th« spoiled ballots were not to be counted. Village Attorney Lewis explained that most states which have had to rule on such cases ruled that, all spoiled ballots in such an election were not to be counted. In his mind, there is no question as to the outcome of such a court action but that the DIES OF BURNS Walter James Jennings. 58, superintendent of Lake-In-The- Hills Water Co. in Lake-In-The - Kills subdivision near Algonquin, f died unexpectedly in St. Joseph's fcospital last week from compli- , Nations developing from severe " iurns suffered Dec. 5 in an ex- • plosion of gases which formed , bi a drained water tank in which was making repairs. Jennings #as burned on the face, hands and body but had been making satisfactory recovery. He submitted to a routine skin graft . .operation and suffered a relapse Shortly afterwards, dying within . a few minutes. 'SPEEDY" h McHENRY GARAGE main concern would be the fact that it would take at least four months to clear up the matter and secure funds which are badly needed now. Two suggested procedures were that the village contact another bank which might give the loan without the opinion of the finance advisors, or to sell the tax anticipation warrants to the residents of Island Lake or to groups of people in Island Lake or1 vicinity.

Winter's Heavy Fire Losses * T': December through March ate the months of heaviest fire loas! During those months last season (December, 1951, through March. 1952) fire losses throughout the United States amounted to (284,540,000, the National Board of Fire Underwriters reports. This was an increase of three per cent over losses of $276,149,000 reported for the corresponding months of the year before, and an increase of 10.8 per cent over losses of $256,- 910,000 for a hke period two years ago. Faulty stoves, ftirnaces. and boilers account for a major portion of all fires d«*ing winter months. Other causes are overheated or defective chimneys and flues, hot ashes and coals (including open fires), and sparks on roof. On the basis of fire loss claims, NBFU points out that QUALITY T v. those hazards account for "close to 20 per cent of all fires resulting from known causes during a 10-year period, 1941 through 1950. Such hazards are in addition to the ever-present ones of matches-smoking and misuse of electricity that account for nearly 40 per cant of all fires. To help overcome such fire hazards, NBFU suggests: 1. Never overwork or "force" a furnace or heater that is giving insufficient heat. 2. Never try to "speed up" a fire by using gasoline or kerosene. 3. Keep a metal screen in front of a burning flreplac*. 4. Use care in handling hot ashes. Always deposit them in a metal container equipped with cover (never a wposten,sx£„ cardboard container). ; SERVICE Jilt MSCJtlPTIQH fHAMMACt SAY, SAM-THAT APIAOWWMO I tw HAP our IN THE COUNTRY YESTERDAY HKU-O, SPEEDY COME HEpe MIO MEET rn I TELL -<OU He Me ANT I WAS OUT IN THE GdUNTR NICK MILLER'S *HENRY0MA6t AMD wetL thatSs OUST IN CASe too I TMUIK rpaarrsa K GOING!
