He said "in serving for the past three and onehalf years as deputy county clerk, I have learned that the rapidly expanding population is placing an ever increasing burden on our government and consequently, on our public officers. This, coupled with the greater amount of legislation which is constantly being enacted into law, makes it important that the voters seek out and elect candidates who are qualified to serve in public office." . Collier, presently employed as the deputy county clerk of McHenry county, assumed his duties on June 1, 1954. He has had previous experience with the laws of government while working as a County Service Officer for the Illinois Veterans Commission from the time of his discharge from the U.S. Army in 1946 until 1949. • ' i f - - - MeHENRY AMONG 24 COUNTIES WITH ADDED PRECINCTS Illinois will have a total of 9,859 election precincts in the April 8 primary election, an increase of 271 over the number for the 1956 general election, Secretary of State Charles F.

Palmer that the fee permitted by law for selling these licenses: still is 10 cents. When- the-70th General Assembly revised the code to increase fishing and hunting licenses- for. Illinois residents by $1 each, it did not change the fee for handling the sale of these licenses.
