The County Home I have been following'several articles being published in our papers lately in reference to the antiquated, condemned, fire trap /known as the McHenry county home at Hartland. It would be interesting to know the following: 1. How many county residents have ever visited this county institution? / 2. How many realize the imoortance of this home?, 3. Do the people know .how small the cost of this bond issue will be to each property owner? 4. Do the property owners realise that their township taxes would be increased 3 to 5 cents per $10b if the county home is closed? The residents in the McHenry area still have time io secure the answers to these questions and to visit1; their county home before April 8.

Anyone passing our residence at various hours on recent nights might have had ample reason to summon the authorities. Somehow, there is nothing so annoying ..to. a night's sleep as the bu2z' of a fly, so we were wide awake at regular intervals attempting to uncover its hiding place. The J957 left-over insects have add- |d pep with -the first days of spring and are not content to bonfine their flights to the early daylight hours as we had been accustomed to in the past. Through the darkest hours, our own little "pets" continued to swoop down, with Motor turned on high volume, then take off to some remote spot Until we were almost sure he had become discouraged and, we were again near sleep. The same process Was repeated time and again, but a more vivid description is not necessary to anyone with even a passing acquaintance with a fly. This is not to say that the coming of spring heralds only such unpleasantness as we have described. The silver lining to jth's cloud came from Colleague Jackie Guffey, who was beaming^as she approached our desk a few minutes ago wi,th the advertisement or dampened paper.

Green St. McHenry PHONE 40 The County Judge is the only judicial office in pu£ county where nominations "are made directly by the people. In that primary, the people should look behind the campaign ballyhoo and. decide, among the candidate?,. who is the best qualified for .the office. The election of'a,k't$jAinty Judge is too important to be left to the politicians. Campaigns for public office take time and money. But this does not mean that the candidate for judicial office who can spend the most money for bandwagons and signs and advertising, necessarily, is the best qualified. I am financing my own campaign for the office of County Judge. Because I hold to the old-fashioned idea that a Judge should not be obligated, to any person or special group, I have not accepted and will not accept campaign contributions This, of course, means that my advertising must be more modest than that of my opponents. My record is that of an independent Republican, with no political strings tied to me. For more than the past 25 years, I have practiced my profession in the County Court and elsewhere. The only public office I hold -- that of City Attorney of the City of Harvard -- I hold on the basis of orofessional merit, not politics. If you believe that the County Judge should be a lawyer with wide experience in the practice of law and.proven devotion to civic duty, I invite your inquiry into my record as a lawyer and a citizen. If deserving of. your confidence, I ask that you vote for and nominate WILLIAM J. GLEASON FOR COUNTY JUDGE THANK YOU...
