Very i i i a i i took place within llie village, but in the i i i i area in the township, there was quite tin -activity in the construction HOW homes and many new people have made Palatine their home during the lust year.

In Municipal affairs the year was exceedingly quiet, the purchase of a new police car, a snow plow and the appointment of a and Plan commission being the chief activities in i i a affairs. Sower Problem Unsettled The sewer disposal plant proposition was revived i the year, but with no visablc means to pay for the project the a is still a problem of the Considerable interest was created in the possible passage of a limited parkway Tor the business district, but nothing concrete came of the proposal, il having a a died in the i tee which was to investigate the proposition. Uno of the outstanding accomplishments of the year was the opening of the Lions club playground project which operated playgrounds at both the grade school and high school grounds and these playgrounds were well pat- ronised not only by the youngsters, but by the elder as well. bank Depositors Get Dividends i the year the stockholders of the State Bank, made a settlement of the stock i a i i claims and this payment by the stockholders or at least a part of it was passed on to the depositors in the shape of a so-called dividend of 1 During tho year the creditors of the Fh-st a i a i a formed a pool and through a trusteeship, took over the bank i i which i be available for bank purposes if it is ever possible to organise a bank in Palatfnc. The annual celebrations of two of Palatine's most active organizations, the Legion and the Firemen, were held ami while ttie Legion boys ran into a streak of terrible weather, the tire lighters, later in the struck the weather man in a benign moment and had an ext successful celebration, the proceeds from which- us usual, go toward the betterment of the department and the good of the community.

Tho various churches and other organizations in the community had a successful and interesting year and furnished much to the education and enlightenment of their members. The public schools of the towns i also had successful years with marked increases in attendance in both the grade and i school and also ill several of the a schools. During the year the Village lire department was host to the Cook county firemen's organization and the rural lire league was host to the rural leagues of four northern Illinois counties. The high school basketball team brought fame and glory to Palatine by i i the state district tournament at Wauconda thereby springing quite an upset of the tournament dope, Butter Prices Follow Closely Consumer Income New Gains Year to year changes in consumers' incomes is the most important factor causing changes in butler prices, according to R. W.

Uiirtlelt, assistant chief in agric a economics, College of Agriculture, University of Illinois. For example, for each $100 received by consumers in 1930, they received only $06 in and during this same period butter prices decreased from 35 cents to 20 cents ii pound, Bartlett explains. this trend, consumers $1)1 in 1SJU7 for each $06 they received in 1932, With this increase in consumer income, butter prices went up from 20 cents a pound in 1932 to 33 cents a pound in 1937. Butter prices in are about J8 per cent lower than those ol 1937, owing in large part to a iJH per cent decline in consumers' incomes i the period. Changes in the volume of butter production have but little effect on tho annual price for butter since butter production does not vary greatly from year to year, As further evidence that consumers' incomes are the chief factor in causing fluctuations in butter prices, Uarllett explained that consumption of butter is also quite constant from year to year.

Furthermore, in most years, butter imports have practically no effect upon butter prices. i to milk price changes, liartlett explains that farm prices of i change because prices of i in all uses are closely related to butter prices. Condensary prices closely follow changes in butler prices, and market milk prices follow condensary prices. A more detailed explanation of these facts is contained in a ographed publication, "Why Farm Prices Change," which has just been issued by the College of Agriculture. Copies of the pamphlet which was written by Dartlctt, may be obtained by writing the College of Agriculture at Urbana.

Palatine Gives Generously In Basket Distribution The Legion Christmas Basket committee wishes to express its appreciation for the splendid co-operation given by many organizations and individuals of pur community who helped make this year's basket i i i a success. There is a great deal of work connected with this project, but the reward of the happiness and good cheer created more than repays all those who were engaged in a i sure that a i a dinner would he on the tabjc of over 50 families. This year it was apparent that the need for baskets would be greater than it had been for several years and for that reason it was necessary to bring this fact before the public in order that enough baskets could be provided. The a in which all responded is indeed a tribute to the spirit of community helpfulness which exists in Palatine. Dean Blair Heads List of Farm-Home Week Speakers Interested in obtaining the latest facts on better farming, better homemaking and better farm living, more than 3,000 Illinois farmers and homemakers are expected to attend the 1939 Farm and Home Week program at the College of Agriculture, university of Illinois, January 9 to 13.

Death Takes Well Known Itasca Man W. F. Droegemueller Was Stricken Sunday While Driving His Car W. F. Droogemuoller, life long resident of Itasca and Addison township, died suddenly last Sunday evening following an attack of coronary thrombosis.

He was C2 years of age. lie was found by his brother Henry, Itasca policeman, at p. in. in his car in front of the village hall. He had left the Shop, a confectionery which he with members of his family, operated, a few i before and was on his way homo a few blocks distant.

The motor of his car WHS still running' and it appeared thai he the moment the heart attack came on. Mr. Droegemueller was in the mcvchamlising business and foi many years had traveled extensively the middle wcsl calling on the larger women's apparel shops and department storer us a representative for several companies, lie regularly made trips New York in the conduct of hi? business. i i a he w.is exclusively in the business and years ago represented the GoltlieL company of New York. Until fivi years ago when ho suflorcd a decline in health, he a i a i i own offices in the loop district, Chicago.

Mr. Droogemuoller- culled regularly at Arlington Heights, Do; Plaines, Elgin and other nearby stores. Mr. Droegemueller's personal business affairs did not interfere with his effort'; of public service in his own village. Coming tr Itasca in he promptly took his place in the village and served with i i i on tre board.

He was one of the organixors and original stockholders of the Itasci. State Bank, serving at one lime on its board of directors.

So says the average man of the street, not alone in A i Heights, but in a i i ities. A gain of a thousand in pop- a i i the hist two years is no'- very far from the truth.

The Reason 1 Head this-Sixty-two houses constructed in IDoS at a cost of $720,000. Nearly all of those house 1 are New houses will nol alone attract new residents. It takes schools, i i pools and i advantages which abound in the City of Good Neighbors.

Tackclt and the other developers who, i the aid of Fl-IA are developing choice sections of A i Heights, These men huve protected their interests by adhering to the zoning and building cods of the village.

When the village has been threatened i shack town development at its borders, the village officials and others have rallied to the feuppoit of the public i i that poorly constructed homes should be kept out of the community. The a i commission has taken the necessary steps to curtail unwanted subdivisions. The building department has enforced the village code. Of course, Arlington Heights is going places. It i go still during The present home i i boom in Arlington Heights had its start in l'J37 when 20 homes were erected at a cost of $121,350, which was twice as many as were built in 193G.

AJUodest Story About an Arlington Modest Policeman If just an Arlington Heights citizen is pinched for speeding in Park Ridge, it would not be a story, but when an Arlington Heights police officer is the man who is handed a ticket for traveling 40 miles an hour in a Park Ridge 25 mile zone, that is a story. The officer was not in uniform at the time and was loath to make known his identity to the arresting officer. He said nothing- to anyone and it was only when Chief Skoog tound the ticket on the floor of his office that Ira Melbourn admitted his predicament. Chief Skoog was not so modest. A call to thf Park Ridge chief revealed of the details of the arrest, seems that Ira did not enjoy being pinched and stated his opinion almost forcibly.

However, as one good neighbor to another good neighbor, Officer Melborne was not required to appear as a defendant in the Park Ridge police court. next time a police officer gets into trouble confess to the edicor and the story will not be published. You see, folks, Ira refused to confess anything and told the editor to go chase himself, which the editor did and came back with the above story. It could happen to the us, Ira.
