The squad car is nearing 70,000 miles and so the possibility of pur­ chasing a new car was discussed. A possible new poli&i ordinance was submitted to the board by Chief Murray to be inspected. A motion was passed to issue the Conservation club a two-day liquor license for their annual Fish Derby taking place Jan. 22 and 23. Ordinance No. 156-A was passed. This ordinance bans all late tavern hours. This means the taverns will go back to the regular hours that they have had through the years.

SAFETY HINTS By Secretary of State Jim Edgar If your drivers license expires during the winter, you can avoid the ice and snow by joining the many Illinois motorists who renew their licenses early in warmer weather. All drivers should receive their renewal notices approximately 30 days before the license expires, but you may renew your license up to one year before the expiration date. This means that if your birthday is taing a bad weather month you no longer are at a disadvantage when it comes time to renew your license. Even if a road test is not required for renewal, you must drive to a facility for a photo, but you don't have to travel under hazardous road con­ ditions. This alternative was designed to give every Illinois driver the op­ portunity to renew their license under ideal weather and «road conditions. If it is too late for you J to renew your license in warm weather thii year, the 30-day gract period before your license expires will give you' a chance to go to your nearest facility on a nice day. This renewal service also is helpful to persons who usually are out of town when their licenses expire. i If you have amy questions about/ the Secretary of State's office, please feel free to use our toll-free telephone number (800- 252-8960).
