Be completed the invention over a ago and it has taken all of this to secure the patent. John K. Peterson, for nineteen years a faithful employe of the company, has been made manager of the Hebron Lumber company to suceael J. W. Smith, who resigned eecentfe to the net. On this occasion the net contained hundreds, of game fish of all species and sixes. And speaking about the size of some of those bass and pickerel- Well, you have all heard about the angler's hard luck story that, the biggest one got away. In om mindU this is no longer a fish yarn, hut; a real truth, as the reftorter as well as the others who ware en shore to see the haul are willing to swear tfcat all of the big ones are still to be landed. The camem> will also vouch for the truthfulness of tfeis statement when the pictures taken, at the time, are thrown upon the soreen. Wonder how m«y he brought home with., him ? This question, by this time, is undoubtedly flashing thru the mind» of .many. Not a chance in the world, to. bring home even one snuiil base. A game and fish warden is present whenever a haul is made and be is i**t on the job ^ every raimttbe to see that all of the game fish are thrown baok into the water, and thutv $$ \yritpr, with the other spectators returned home elated avm what he had seen, but a fish* overly successful from a financial . , „ . standpoint, the experience and fame become cashier of the Bank of Helwsn gained will, no doubt, help them to something better before the opening of another show season. During the season just closed the circus covered a distance o3f 15,000 miles, exhibiting in twenty-six states and many of the largest cities of the country. For most of the season the circus traveled the western states, altho many of the southern as well as a few of the eastern states were also visited.

The first • hearing, which was held sometime ago, was well, attended and It is hoped that every citizen in this (own will turn out next Saturday |md show that they are 100 per cent for McHenry. The object of thia hearing is to explain carefully the sewerage question to the public and present some changes which have been made. As far as we are able to learn there is no opposition to the question wlfen the work will be open for bids, r.ow and- it is simply a matter of time Injured at Boat Factory Clarence Cobb, an employe at the Hunter boat factory, suffered a painful injury to his right hand on last Wednesday afternoon.

MINSTREL WELL ATTENDED fjlum Cleared Gives Piano Fuqd An ** Excellent Start The minstrel show, which was staged at the school auditorium last Friday evening was one of the best ever presented to the people of McHenry. Under, the able direction of Miss Marjorie Gurnett and Miss Blanche Pryor the unlimited talent of high school did its best. The opening number, "Old Folks at Home," with the carefully planned costumes, bespoke Dixie land. The many numbers and jokes that followed were cleverly given. Frank Gans is always at home at such a time, also Jennie Mae Cooley. Rosemary Nye gave the dialect reading splendidly and Miss Blanche Meyers made a typical "mammy." Each one deserves special mention, especially the, "Gazoo orchestra." The sum of sixty-eight dollars was taken in at the door and gives the piano fund a very good start. It has been rumored and also requested that the young ladies and young men repeat the entire prograntr which they are considering. Firet Game Friday Night The basket ball season will be officially opened at the McHenry public school gymnasium tomorrow (Friday) evening, when the locals and the Wauconda highs clash for honors. There has always been more or leas rivalry between teams of these tyro schools and the fans may rest assured of seeing some action when the two teams come together in their first encounter of the season. Wauconda, during the past two seasons, has had a shade the better over the teams representing our school, but this year,. the members of the local quintet declare, things will be different. The game will be called at 8:15 o'clock and as WauconA will come here with a big delegation of rooters it is hoped that McHenry fans and followers of the sports will also turn out in large numbers. General admission, 25 cents; children, 15 cents. vf - c^vys Sale of Red Cross Seals The campaign for the Christinas sale of Red Cross seals is again being organized and the committees expect to surpass any previous efforts. When we think that seventy per cent of the proceeds goes to the credit of Mc Henry county, we should all strive to buy as many as possible. Our a,im in this county is to elect a representative county committee which will affiliate with the state department. After this has been accomplished we will then be entitled to 77 Ms per cent of the funds. We must buy as many seals as we can and let McHenry lead in this great work. Named Head of State Feed Dept. James C. McLaughlin, a former resident of this village, and with whom we are all acquainted, has recently been appointed by Gov.
