Taxpayers of County should begin saving their nlckloi) and if not their dollars, because the tax bills are expected to be in the malls some time next week. The tax payers will welcome a reduction in the county and forest preserve rules and probably can not blame the local taxing bodies for the increases of a few cents.

A reduction in assessed valuation has tended to raise the riitus to some extent. T. C. Mart, as deputy collector of Palatine township, Has received i two of hit books, but will not send out the bills until ho has all oft them. I Mr.

Haas, of Elk Grove, is in the i same position. Announcements of of office hours will probably appear in the next Issue of this paper. Wm. Annen, Wheeling township collector, has not yet received his books, but returned from Chicago Wednesday with the word that the bills are on the way. The tax rates svlth those of 1934 are given below.

Wheeling Township The larger increases were the village of Mt. Prospect, from 60c to 80c, and Arlington Heights high school, from $1.14 to Increases nearly as great are noted in school districts 23, 24, 26, 26 end 57.

G. Rex Volz, Supt. Race Track Men Jump Usual Board Bills Assuming that Arlington Hts. women who board race trackers svould profit by past experiences, this paper did not issue any special warning regarding the possibility of the visitors leaving unpaid board bills when they left for Washington Park. Judge Kopplin reports that there are a number of people who have now brought their woes to him expecting the hand of the law to reach down in Washington Park, and by some magic pick out the guilty men and haul them back to Arlington Heights.

Judge Kopplin is doing what he can, but the extension of board credit to race trackers Is as much a gamble as placing a two dollar bet through the window. Farmer and Hired Man Killed at Same Spot But Two Months Apart 1 lot man fillet-brook, 56, who resides on Cumberland road, between Ottktmi and Dempster, met his death August 2 when he was hit by a car driven by George M.

ARLINGTON REFUNDS ALL GENERAL BONDS Accepts Offer of Bond House; New Issue of 2 3 0 0 0 Includes All General Bonds. Defaulted bonds, the bugaboo of till taxing bodies, has been lifted from tho village of Arlington Heights by the acceptance by that village of an offer of Seipp Princell Chicago bond house, to handle, at no cost to the village, the refunding of all general corporate both past due and those of later maturity. Tho bond firm will contact all present holders of bonds, handle the legal work and pay all c.osts. The new bonds, will not be actually due until 1957, but provision for their retirement serially each year, will be provided under the same taxing plan as at present. This refunding plan will make no additional costs to the tax payers, but will remove all possibility of the village having the stigma of defaulted bonds affecting their credit.

It will also permit the use for other indebtedness of taxes not yet received, that belong to the retirement of bonds. The Arlington Heights village board has made a big effort to catch up with their general obligation bonds and considering the delay in collection of tuxes, have done very well, much better than many other villages of its class. 36-yeear-old Thresher Still in Operation Chas. Schoppe, the veteran thresher, of Palatine, whose machine in the earlier years of this century was kept in operation from July until snow time, sold his outfit this week to S. A.

Just 100 Shares of Arlington Bank Stock Left; Better Act Now Lion Ewert, chairman of bank committee announced'to the Lions club Tuesday evening, that only less than 100 shares of bank stock remain unsold. He also mentioned that many requests have been received from outside people for stock, but that it is the desire of the committee to sell as much as possible of the remaining stock to local residents. As an illustration to show what other people think of our proposed National bank, Lion Ewert said that he had just received a letter from a man in Minnesota who inquired to see if he could buy some of the stock.

Aug. 13 is the date set for the Lions club picnic. The place will be announced later. Camp Reinberg To Entertain County Board The annual dinner to members of the county board at Camp Reinberg will occur Thursday, August 13. Officials of the Juvenile court were entertained Wednesday evening.

Volx, district superintendent of the forest preserve paid a surprise visit to the camp Monday. He entertained by showing slides that were taken by his father. Mr. Volz has promised to return next week. Seven hundred from Camp Reinberg and adjoining camps, witnessed the donkey ball game last Tuesday eveninsfcwhen the senior staff played the junior staff.

Many of the young ladies were riding donkeys lor the first time and got many a spill. A pony and cart has been added to the "equipment" at the camp and is in use the greater part of the day. Boxing matches are now a feature at the new outdoor-boxing ring. The contestants are placed according to weight. Carnival Popcorn Salesman Forgot to Bring Popcorn FIRE WARNINGS The continued dry -weather and increasing danger of fire has made necessary the issuance of the following warnings in the interest of fire prevention: An adult should remain on the scene when a bonfire is started.

All fires started should be extinguished with water. Cigarette smokers should use care to extinguish cigarette butts. Do not burn rubbish, bury it. No children should be allowed to have rpatches in their possession. When a citizen sees a fire, as a public duty, he should make a personal effort to extinguish the blaze before it gains too great a headway.

W. R. COMFORT, Fire Chief, Palatine, 111. ARLINGTON HTS. OLICETOPLAY 10 FAVORITES The Judge Is The Only Man To "Fix Tickets" Hereafter Says Schneberger.

4 Accepting the challenge that there has been too much leniency in the past shown to local violator; of the motor vehicle laws, the Arlington Heights police department 'has entered upon a campaign of safety first. Local residents who exceed the speed limit and do other acts contrary to the vehicle laws need not be surprised if they hear the police siren the next time they drive home from the train. Increased activity on the part of the police department followed the assignment of two officers to day duty. "From standpoint of efficiency," declared Alderman Schneberger Wednesday, "there should be no fixing of tickets, and hereafter, the department will brook no interference from, any one." "I do not care who is the guilty party, whether it be a member of my own family, or not, it is the duty of the police officer to either warn or make the arrest as the oc- tasion warrants and the officer can ekpect full cooperation from the department." These were the instructions given by Chairman Schneberger Wednesday morning. Mr, Schneberger was emphatic in instructions and there was no doubt even in the editor's own mind that hereafter he himself would watch the speedometer when he comes down the Northwest highway from Palatine.

Local Business Man Victimized By Gyp Artist The race track crowds have gone, but a local tavern keeper will remember a gyp artist who victimized him out of $10 and nearly got another local man in trouble who innocently tried to cash a fake race ticket. The latter was taken into custody ten days ago but at a hearing before Judge Kopplin, proved his innocence. A tavern keeper on the pica of a stranger that he was ill and had to leave town at once cashed a win ticket for $10. On tho presentation of the ticket at a paying window the local man was taken into custody. Last Wednesday, however, Edwin Sherwood, one of the henchmen of the gyp ring attempted to cash two tickets, himself and was unable to prove his innocence when taken before Judge Kopplin and at the hearing Friday, was sent to the county jail.

The costs in the case were paid by the Jockey club and as the government has an interest in the tickets, federal interests may aid the further prosecution of Sherwood. The gyp ring travelled from track to track, adroitly changing race tickets by the use of similar methods as tried in Chicago to vie-, timize theater owners on bank night. At Arlington Park, the first two tickets passed were discovered and the paying tellers were put on the alert for similar attempts. Free Ice Cream for Kids When Truck Overturns A Popcorn salesman, a barker, a trailer, and a popper left Palatine, Wednesday, to do business at the carnival at Lake Zurich. They drove into the carnival grounds, picked out a likely spot to display their ware, and opened the trailer.

Lo and behold no popcorn. So did and behold no popcorn. The two crestfallen business men, Hollis Toynton and his stooge, Jim Henry, are trying to keep the story dark. That's why it is here. If any Arlington Heights youngster "didn't feel like eating supper" Friday evening, it's a sure bet that he must have heard the good news that an ice cream truck had tipped over.

Or if the dish pan was missing, he probably was one of the smarter ones who brought containers to cart away the free ice cream. It was a treat on 1 Smith Ice Cream Company when the driver lost, control of the truck and overturned into the diteh on Dundee road near State road, Friday afternoon. A local garageman retrieved the truck and the "gangs" made his garage their club house until the last quart was gone. Far be it for our youngsters to wish anyone bad luck, but they just proved themselves to be opportunists and privately tell the editor that there was more than one grownup who also helped himself. FIRES COST TAXPAYERS REAL MONEY Adults and Children Disregard Warnings; Fires Continue; Costs Mount The disregard of fire safety measures on the part of adults and is costing the tax payers of Arlington Heights, Palatine and Mt.

Prospect some real money. An Arlington Heights boy struck a match to some dry grass. It cost the village of Arlington Heights $25.50 to extinguish the blaze. A Mt. Prospect woman attempted to burn some rubbish upon the rear of an adjoining lot, fire department members were called to extinguish the blaze at an expense to the village.

A Mt. Prospect boy on a bicycle lighted the grass in three places. Every fire call costs Mt. Prospect over $30. Last Sunday, an entire farm in Orland township, including all farm buildings was destroyed by a grass fire.

The village of Arlington Heights Monday evening authorized payment of $110 to local fire fighters on four alarms, made within ten days. Even then no charge was made for one cVll. The municipalities may be able to pay the firemen fees, but if such disregard of safety measures by the general public'is allowed to continue, sooner or later a home or other property will go up in smoke and the loss will be one that the owner can not afford. The village of Mt. Prospect last year, through the use of relief workers "burned off'' all dangerous spots.

This year there are no relief workers available for such a purpose. The suggestion has been made that a similar plan be tried in Arlington Heights. Grass fires are being treated as still alarms in Palatine, but there have been three calls this week. None admits how they were started. Reports come from McHenry county of entire grain fields that have been destroyed.

The Des Plaines and.Cook County Mutual Fire Insurance Co. recently issued a warning to its policy holders. Up to the present time that company has suffered no serious loss due to grass fires, but'anything can happen, states Geo. Busse, secretary, unless every owner and every tenant' is on his guard. There has been an average of one fire a day in the forest preserve the past three weeks.

The Des Plaines fire department was called out early this week to prevent the spread of a blaze through the preserve. Reports of Death of Harry Scott Exaggerated, Writes Acquaintance The Palatine Enterprise is in receipt of a letter from Dr. Ben W. Wilson, of Morrison, that the report of Harry Scott's death, published in the July 24 issue was very much exaggerated, -as last Sunday he called upon Harry who asked to be remembered to former Palatine friends. Dr.

Wilson's letter follows: Editor Enterprise: Mrs. Brockway sent me the clipping from, your paper of July 24 stating that Mr. Harry Scott had passed away. I am pleased to say that 1 spent an hour with him this Sunday morning at the Old Folks Home on Route 30, about midway between Sterling and Morrison. I found him in great deal better health than at any time since a year ago last November, when I first stopped in to call on him.

Today was his 64th birthday, so he told me. He wanted to be remembered to all his old friends in Palatine and asked about a great many of them. He would be pleased to get a letten from any of them. His address is Round Grove Old People's Home, Whiteside 111. It seems kind of good to chat with any one from home, as we are amongst strangers all the time.

Last Sunday evening coming up from Sterling, we saw Harry sitting under an apple tree reading a newspaper. Traffic was very con- jested and I didn't care to turn out of line to say hello to him for fear of being bumped, so when we got this clipping that he died on Monday, I was sorry I didn't take the chance so this morning in going past I stopped in and asked the superintendent what happened to him. I found him in pretty good health and spirits. Best regards to everyone back home. I remain yours truly Ben W.

Wilson, M. D. 402 Lincolnway East, Morrison, 111. Roselle Firemen Invite Neighbors To Big Frolic The Roselle Fire department is making big plans to entertain folks from neighboring towns at the annual dance Saturday evening, August, 15, at Roselle Park. Mel Borchardt will furnish the music.

Besides dancing there will be other attractions such as games and amusements for all. Farmers To Hold Annual Picnic Next Tuesday Announcement conies to us the office of the Farm. Bureau, which Harvey Adair of-, 'Chicago Heights is through 'Julius Precht, chairman of. the entertainment committee, that they are holding their big pow wow and 4-H Club Show at Santa Fe Park, Tiedt- ville, on Tuesday, August 11. The Farm Bureau as is so well.

known is non-sectarian and nonpartisan, but is strictly pro-agricultural. It is continuously fighting the battles, national, state and county, of farmers, both as individuals and collectively. The Cook County Farm Bureau has been extremely successful in these last years, meeting with consistent growth each and every year which in itself proves the efficiency of its program and proves that it is rendering a service to the individuals in excess of the membership charge. The 4-H Club work which is an educational feature carried on among farm boys and girls which has as its objective the building of the farm boys and girls rather than an economic gain. It too, under the leadership ot Mr.

Tascher during the several years that he was here as well as this year under the able leadership of Mr. Glover, the Assistant Farm Adviser, has made very consistent gains in volume and quality of work. The boys and girls are exhibiting their products at the picnic next Tuesday and those who are judged winners in their respective classes will be sent to the State Fair at Springfield later in the week. A drawing of a five-ton load of hard coal or its equivalent in other coal or $60.00 in cash is one of the main features. Everyone will go home from the picnic happy, but the winner of the substantial prize particularly so.

Threshing is nearing completion in both ends of the county and grain yields have been good. Pastures are short and corn is firing. Certainly rain is needed, but the good or the bad on your own farm will not keep you away from the picnic. No matter how much the farmer enjoys his own farm, the farm people I more than any other class in the world, we believe, enjoy their neighbors and enjoy neighboring with their neighbors and rext Tuesday our Cook county farmers will set aside to play ball, have fun and visit. FARMERS TO TAKE A DAY OFF Mr.

Barrett, the. Farm Adviser tells us, that arrangements are quite complete for the entertainment of all the Farm Bureau folks in Cook county and their friends at the Annual Farm Bureau picnic at Santa Fe Park, Tiedtville, next Tuesday. The 4-H Club show with the exhibits of the boys' and girls' products which is held annually with the picnic'should this year be bigger and better than ever in the past. Mr. Glover and his 4-H club committee have their arrangements quite complete and inform us that the boys and girls are bringing their product to the proper stage for showing.

They say the boys have their calves' horns polished and tails washed and, the pig club boys have their pigs' toe nails properly manicured. The committee on baseball with Charles Erickson as chairman, promises a hotter game than ever. If you don't like the hard ball game between the south end boys of Bloom township and the north end Lincoln A. C. ooys then certainly you will enjoy seeing the So.

Holland girls cross bats with the Lemont girls in soft ball. Leave it to Jake and Mac, the committee on sports to have something entertaining for all in the way of sports. A particular attraction and added feature that is so necessary to make a picnic a picnic is the brass band and music for dancing for those who care to dance. Knowing the Farm Bureau as we around the Herald office have to know them, we'll predict that it would be good judgment for all of the good Farm Bureau folks to set aside Tuesday and go to Tiedtville early in the day without high heeled shoes on the women folks or neckties on the men folks, prepared to have a good time and lots of it. Cal Pidgeon to Remain at Arlington Ballroom Cal Pidgeon and his orchestra will continue its engagement Wednesday evening at the Arlington Ballroom.

Hands Burned When Gas Stove Overflows Mrs. Walter Storms, 627 S. Highland, burned her hands when a gas- Trie building restrictions in Arlington Heights and unlawful acts by owners, was a subject heatedly discussed between 11:15 and midnight Monday evening by the village board. Past infractions of the building code, present efforts along the same lines and the evident intentions of a few more owners to make their residency into two flats were aired during the 45 minutes. Paul Taege, building commissioner led the discussion, submitting past, present and future problems of his department.

Mr. Taege pointedly inquired of the board if he would have their backing upon the enforcement of the building code or whether the owners were to be allowed to disregard its provisions. During the discussion, the aldermen agreed that everybody should be treated alike; there should be no favorites. One or two questions of law as regard minor alterations were discussed and the opinion of attorney Thai was asked. The police will cooperate with the building commissioner in enforcing the provisions of the building code that require that art application be made for a building permit before any alterations be started or before actual work is begun on a new structure.

Penalties for disregard of the code take a fine between $10 and $200. The attention of owners is directed to the following sections: Section 678: No building now or hereafter erected shall be altered until it has been examined and approved by the commissioner as being in good and safe condition to be altered as. proposed and the alteration so made shall conform to the provisions of the ordinance of this village. Section 684: Before the erection, construction, alteration or repair of any building or structure of any elevator, hoist- way of heating appliance in or connected with any building or structure in this village for which a permit is required oy this article the owner, architect or builder shall submit to the Commissioner of Buildings at his office full specifications and plans of the proposed constructions, alterations or repairs, and file a detailed statement thereof in writing.
