It derived its corporate entity, its powers and responsibilities, through a charter granted by the State of Illinois, at the request of the people it was to serve. They saw in the for- mation of such municipal corporation the best means known for the collective action and regulation necessary to provide for an orderly community life. ...aw -'P' j'- . . . . .
