The dramatic club will be in charge
of the meeting, which will be held

fire loss will be reflected at once
in lower assessments for losses
Thus it appears from a careful
analysis that obtaining fire protec-

Because of the required yes vote
of more than 60 per cent of the
total vote cast at the last general
election, it is very important that
every voter remember and take
special care to properly vote the
special ballot which will be hand-
ed him when he enters the voting
machine.
A copy of this 'ballot appears on
eight in a statement by the Linn
Township trustees. A check mark
in the yes square is the only mark
needed to vote an affirmative bal-
lot. Likewise If anyone does not
feel that fire protection would be a
good thing, a check mark can be
made in the no square.
