Another sub-division has been laid out to Cary Station. Fritz Kranz has laid out twenty-three fine building lots bordering on West Main street, for which he expects to find a ready sale. The members of* the Grayslake band were at Wauconda on Tuesday •evening of this week, where they lent tbeir assistance to the local organization in putting on a splendid concert. The Flora DeVoss Theatrical company closed >«» successful season at Aurora last week. The company will open their summer season, under canvas, at Richmond on May 27 and 28. The city council of Woodstock recently saw fit to discharge the engineer at the city's light and power plant on account of being intoxicated while ,' on duty and this is supposedly a dry country. ~ The postoffice at Burlington, Wis., was entered and robbed one night last week. The burglars used an acetyline torch in .gaining an entrance to the safe, from which they took $334.06 in money and stamps. For the first time this season, the railroad train operating beWWn Wauj conda and Palatine became stuck in ? a snow drift a week ago last Saturday morning and was unable to extricate itself until the following Monday. The spring municipal election at Barrington on Tuesday of last week brought out the biggest vote in the history of the village, a total of 776 votes being cast. The library question was voted down by twenty-six votes. Work continues to progress very jj^aatfsfactorijy on the new milk plant now ubder construction by the Cooperative Marketing company at Grayslake. Just how soon the build- " ing wi#be completed cannot be stated at this time. Joe Duros, one of the proprietors of the Crystal Lake ice cream factory ' and retail store, who left on a visit to ' his home in Italy last November, is again bound for the states, accom- * panied by a bride.

May 1. •Manager Geier, of Ae home club, has been successful fff securing the Dundee All Stars as the attraction and the fans may rest assured of seeing a good game. The All Stars appeared in McHenry ori two different occasions last year and, while the home team won both games, the Visitors made the McHenry aggregation exert themselves in order to carry away the honors. Word from Dundee is to the effect that this year's team is even stronger than that of last and the boys from the down river city are coming to McHenry with all sorts of confidence and in the hope of squaring their defeats suffered at the hand* of the McHenry lads during 1920. Game will start promptly at 2:30 o'clock. General admission, 36c; war tax, 4c; total, 40c. Let's help make the opening game a hummer by our attendance. , WILL AGAIN SCARIFY"STREETS Machine to Be Put Onto Village Shortly Roads In The municipally owned- scarifier, which did such excellent work last spring, Will again be put to work on the streets of the village this year and work will start shortly. The big tractor employed on the job last year has again been engfeged, which means that the job this year will be even more thoro than lastj when the experience was new to the workmen employed. * A road drag, recently purchased by the village, was delivered last week and this will be used in leveling off the streets after the first named maohine has loosened up the dirt and gravel. By the use of the drag much better results may be obtained than with a scraper as was used last year. 4 Thus McHenry this summer will be able to boast of the best dirt roads in McHenry county. That's progressiveness. "* Car* 1 *•' - " Had Ben Stilling & Son strung one of "their nets across Boone creek last weejt they would undoubtedly have been successful in the recapture of most of the carp which they planted in the mill pond two years ago and which made for the creek during the hauls that were made in that body of water last summer. The opening of the water gates at the pond last week allowed scores of these monsters to escape and some of the kids had all sorts of fun catching them with their hands when they became lodged between the big rocks after they had been washed over the flood gates. By this time most of the big fellows have again found their way into the river and later on will undoubtedly return to the waters df Pistakee bay and lake, where they were seined before being placed into the mill pond. Papec Silo Filler I wish to announce that I have beenappointed the distributing agent for the Papec silo filler for Lake and the eastern half of McHenry counties. These machines^will be shipped to McHenry in carload lots and distributed from this point. I also have made arrangements whereby a full line of repairs for said machine will be carried at all times. Will also give service on the machines of this make already sold in the territory as well as on all future sales. Mr. William B. Tonyan, who has acted as agent for this machine in the past, will be retained by me as a representative. Anyone in the market for a silo filler will be given immediate attention by making their wants known by mail or phone. John R. Knox.

Three Days' Indoor Carnival Be Hrld In McHenry May 19, 20 and 21--Proceeds to Building Fund The McHenry post of the American Legion, No. 491, announces a big three day indoor carnival to be held at their hall in this village on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. May 19, 20 and 21. According to the plans which are now being perfected, the douph boys are going to give the people of this community one of the biggest treats of the kind ever offered them. . The various committees, which are already at work on the plans and arrangements for the lug event, are displaying a "pep" ana enthusiasm that makes us all feel like "peeling" our coats and giving the fighters a lift on the undertaking and unless we are badly mistaken the event gives promise of terminating into SOME CARNIVAL. One of the big features of the event will be the giving away of a fully equipped Ford touring car to the holder of the lucky number, while another feature, which should prove intensely interesting, will be a popularity con test,"open to any young lady in McHenry county, and the winner of which will be presented with a beautiful ring. # The purpose of the carnival wil,l be to start a building fund, which eventually, it is hoped, will make possible the building of a gymnasium for the village--a very good idea indeed, an<fc one which should have the hearty cooperation of everyone in the village, as well as the people residing in the rural districts. McHenry is the only town in this vicinity which does not enjoy such a place and no one realizes more than do our people how we have missed our school gym during the fall and winter months. Indoor sports of all kinds are becoming more and more popular each year and there is scarcely a place of any size that does not boast of a good basket ball team or two and the larger centers of the county have even provided a place where indoor baseball and volley ball may be played. The McHenry post is anxious to give McHenry a building wherein these various indoor games tnay be indulged in, which, together with a swimming tank, will fill local requirements to a nicety. By giving the dough boys our co-operation in the coming carnival, such a place can easily be,obtained for our village.. Tickets for the automobile raffle as well as the popularity contest are already off the press and the dough boys will go to work at once in their campaign to dispose of at least $1,000 of the former paste boards. Now let's all get back of this thing and show these young men as well as our younger generation that we have their interests at heart by BOOSTING THE AMERICAN LEGION BUILDING FUND. More particulars regarding the coming event will be published in these columns as they develop from week to week, tfatch for them. Round Lake Garage Burns Ifw garage building and entire contents, .including eighteen cars, three of which were new, were destroyed at Round Lake by fire at midnight Tuesday. Martin Thelen, a former Johnsburg boy, was the owner and the loss is estimated at $10,000. Mr. Thelen entered the garage business at Round Lake several years ago and has been successful in building up a fine traHe. The dimenions of the building were 40*100, two story and basement, and the Mow is a most disastrous one to the owner. The origin of the fire is unknown. Mr. Thelen has many friends thruout this community, who extend to him their sympathy. ' Through . The series of four entertainments as sponsored by a number of our progressive business men came to a close with the appearance of the Stevens- Chafhberlin company here last Thursday evening and so far as the men who were responsible for the series are concerned this is their last attempt at providing entertainment of this sort., Just what the benefits of the series were we will leave to the judgment of those who attended the entertainments, but one fact is certain, financially the series proved a failure and the loss must and will be made good by the men who sponsored the course, and were you to ask any one of these as to their plans for another series the reply will invariably be "never again." Variety Club The members of the Variety club were most delightfully entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Chas. J. Reihansperger at their home on Main Street Tuesday evening of this week. Five hundred furnished amusement and prizes were awarded as follows: Firsts, Mrs. Geo. H. Johnson and Geo. A. Stilling; consolations, Mrs. Peter M. Justen and Walter J. Donavin. .After the |am a dainty luncheon was aujoyed^ ^ , T v' SERIES OF PHOTO PLAYS Under Auspices ef St. M«ry\i Pariah at Empire Theatre The people of McHenry are to be treated to a series of higher than the ordinary photo-plays. During the. months of May and June on Wednesday nights extraordinary features will be seen at the Empire theatre which have cost fortune* of money to produce. There is a clamor and a place for true .art fh movie screens. The sickening subject that prevails in most of our films today is divorce and free love. So much so that, people grow disgusted and caution their grown up children to look for the more uplifting and ennobling (days, which are few and far between. Without attempting to preach any doctrines, the Catholic Art association of New York has financed the filming of six super photo-plays. Every one is marvelous in dramatic power. They surpass the gamut of the movie house Attractions. The stories are clean, but strong. They are replete with tense situations, thrilling scenes and the tenderest sentiment of the heart, so that not only Catholics who love art, but everybody, has an advantage to see the naked truth, scenes of thrilling situations that are soul stirring, spell binding, inpiring and ennobling. Two weeks ago the first super^ photoplay was shown undter the auspices of St. Mary's parish and next Wednesday the second is coming. "The Transgressor," a nine act arama. Picture starts at 8:00 p. m.

' *** RAIN CA USES W ASHOUT Morning Passengers Fail to Reach McHenry Tuesday Morning The heavy rains of the night previous caused a bad washout of the railroad bridge over Nippersink creek near Richmond last Tuesday morning, making it impossible for the milk as well as passenger train*to reach this village that morning. In order to accommodate McHenry passengers, however, a special was made up at Crystal Lake that morning, which carried local people into the city. Richmond and the other towns to the north were obliged to go by all of| way of Genoa Junction over the K. D. division to Harvard in order to reach the city on that day. A carload of cinders was hauled to the bridge from West Chicago and by noon the damage had been sufficiently repaired to allow the way-freight to pass over the structure. The afternoon trains ran on schedule time. The washout not only caused much inconvenience to the passengers, but delayed our mails as well, our regular morning mail reaching McHenry that evening. Entertained For Sister Mrs. George Steilen acted as hostess to the members of the Just Us club and a few friends at a miscellaneous shower given in honor of her sister, Miss Lillian Heimer, a bride of last Saturday, at her home on Green street last Thursday evening. The affair was in the form of a surprise for the guest of honor and a most deightful evening was passed. Games, music and general frolic ensued until a late hour, when palatable refreshments were served. The guest of honor received many gifts, both of the ornamental as well as useful variety, which will decorate her home at Schaumburg, where she will make her future home. Those present on this happy ocasion were: Mesdames G. C. Boley, Henry Heimer, Jr., N; F. Steilen, C. M. Bickler, Wm. Heimer, J. W. Rothermel, Emory Herdklotz, Arthur Rasmussen, Delia Heimer, E. J. Krambeer, Geo. H. Johnson, F. J. Aicher, Helena Heimer; Misses Clara Stoffel, Fanny Granger, Anna Frisby, Clara Miller, Eleanor McGee, Elola Boyle, Lillian Heimer and Kathryn Burks. Undergoes Operation William Althoff of this village, who during the past two years or more has been engaged as a state investigator in the department of public works and buildings, division of waterways, confined to St. Joseph's hospital at Elgin, where he underwent an operation for appendicitis on Tuesday of last week. Reports from the hospital are to the effect that he is making a %ery satisfactory recovery. . Daughters of Isabella Entertain The members of Joyce Kilmer court, Daughters of ^Isabella, entertained a gathering of friends at a dancing party at the K. of C. hall last Friday evening. John and Miss Louise Stilling furnished the music for the occasion and a most delightful evening wa& spent by those in attendanee. Light refreshment*-w#re served.

The local boosters split into two parties just before leaving McHenry, two machines carrying half of the boosters taking in the north end, while the second party covered the outh end of the county, each party (raveling from the east to the west ends and met at Woodstock about four o'clock that afternoon. In every city, village and town visited the most influential citizens were seen and asked to have a committee at Woodstock on Monday iqorning of this week for the purpose of getting together and formulating plans whereby the McHenry county board of supervisors would be petitioned to allow the road question to be voted at the coming judicial election, which is to take place in June. Responding to the invitation that had l>een extended them by the McHenry boosters last Friday, every town in the county wps represented at the meeting held in the circuit court room at the court house in Woodstock on Monday morning, at which time a good roads organization for McHenry county was effected with R. I. Overton of this village as chairman and E. A. Manley of Harvard, secretary. A committee of thirty-four men, two from each township of the county, was HOFFMAN-HE1MER ITERS OF LOCAL UTBBt also named to get together and assist "ar^» Schaffner A in putting the proposed program over. a veteran of the late world war, hav After an organization had been effected, the members of the * county hoard of supervisors were invited to .the meeting, to whom was explained the purpose of their gathering, and, while no definite decision was reached, it looks to us as if the prayer of the committee will be heard at next Tuesday's meeting of the county supervisors. *• * The committee of thirty-four, with the exception of two townships, Coral and Grafton, foUow: McHenry--John R.

This committee will meet again at Woodstock tomorrow (Friday) morning at 10:30 o'clock, at which time it is hoped that a resolution to be presented to the honorable board of supervisors next Tuesday will be passed.' Two plans as to the manner'of raising the funds with which to start building hard roads in McHenry county have been discussed, the first a bond issue and the other direct taxaion at the rate of 50c on each flOO •aluation. At the meeting at Woodstock last Monday the former plan Popular Couple Are Wed Here Saturday Afternoon A wedding of general interest to the readers of The Plaindealer was solemnized at St. Mary's Catholic church in this village at 2:00 o'clock last Saturday afternoon, when Rev. Edw. Berthold, the pastor, pronounced the words that made Mr. Joseph M. Hoffman of Chicago and Miss Lillian Heimer of this village man and wife. The wedding ceremony was witnessed by "immediate relatives and close friends of the couple. Attending them were Mrs. F. J. Aicher of this village, a sister of the bride, and Charles J. Hoffman of Chicago, a brother of the groom. The wedding march was played by Mrs. Warren Burtiss of Chicago, a sister of the groom. The bride.was attired in a goWn of carmel colored canton crepe with hat. and slippers to match and wore a beautiful corsage bouquet of lavender sweet peas and orchids. A wedding reception and dinner were enjoyed at the home of the bride's mother on Elm street following the ceremony, which was participated in by only the immediate relatives of the couple. Those from out-of-town attending the reception were: Mr. and Mrs. Chas. J. Hoffman, son and daughter; Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hoffman and daughter, Marie; Mr. and Mrs.f Al. Schultz, Mrs. Warren Burtiss and George Heimer, all of Chicago. The couple left McHenry early the same evening via automobile and drove to Fox Lake, from which point they boarded a train for Chicago. The bride of this happy union is the eldest daughter of Mrs. Helena Heimer of this village and she has always made this place her home, where she Was considered one of our fairest daughters. For many years she has been a leader among the younger social set and her absence from the Community will be keenly felt.
