Tax Referendum December 14
Emest Stading, Jr., Secretary of the Board of Education, presents to the residents of District 158, Infor¬ mation concerning the special elec- ion procedure.
The polls will be open for voting from 12:00 o'clock noon to 7:00 o'clock PM., Saturday, December 14, 1368. The entire district wiD be a precinct and the polling place is the Village Hall in Huntley.
To vote, a person must be a cit¬ izen of the United States, twenty- one (21) years of age or older, and meet  the following requirements:
1. Must be regbtered.
2. Be a resident of the state for one (1) year.
3. Be a resident of McHenry or Kane Counties for ninty (90) days.
4. Be a resident of District 158 for thirty (30) days.
The proposition asks the citizens to give permission for the Board of Education to raise the maximum levy for the district from the pre¬ sent 1.81% to 2.21% for the Edu¬ cational Fund.
The 1.81% levy will presently produce a sum of ?308,230.00. The approximate amount of taxes from a 2.21% levy is $376,347.00. Th© difference between the two amounts Is $68,117.00.
Under the present rate the cost I>er child in dally attendance (A.D.A.) for 19f6-67 was $662.80. For the same period of time the State of Illinois was $621.00 and the national average was $623.00. If District 168 expenditures were at the national level, it would be nec¬ essary for $40,260.00 more to be spent
One measure of financial effort for a community is the cost per child in daily attendance. It appears that this community's efforts for 1966-67 was considerably under the average for the state as well as the nation.

The first deer killed legally hi Grafton Township for many years was slain by Mr. Vemon (Jack) Brunschon last Snnday morning at 9 a.m. on the Paul Winger Farm on Ballard Road. Mr. Brunschon said he was also hunting deer on the Ted Smith Farm.
Mr. Brunschon said he had act¬ ually never walked the area, but the farmers had told him of deer in the vicinity.
On Friday morning, Mr. Brun¬ schon walked the area and saw many tracks. He said he also, located an old deed tree which he thought would be ideal to hide behind.
On Saturday, Mr. Brunschon went out and stayed behind the tree all day seeing some doe and small bucks. He said be wasnt able to get a shot.
Last Sunday morning Mr. Bnm- schon. Chuck and Wally Akerberg, and Bob Schachtner went out to the Whiger Farm and Mr. Brunschon took his position behind the tree at 6:30 a.m. He said he laid down and took a little nap and listened for the rustling of leaves to betray the location of a deer. He said he could see a lot of territory to thhe left and in front of him. However, the deer came from the right forc¬ ing him to get up and turn to get a shot at the eight point buck.
He said tlie day before he didn't have a chance to shoot a deer but he was not ready. On Sunday morn¬ ing be bad the gun of tbe uietj
and was prepared.
Mr. Brunschon describes the kill as follows: "When I turned around he stood right there and it took him by surprise as much as me and I shot He was actually over a ridge only a Uttle bit, bis legs were¬ n't even showing, Jnst the top part of his body. I saw him faU but by the time I got around the tree where I was biding, the deer was gone.
