The clergy especially, ijwho have heard the bisliop on various important occasions, declared his sermon to -have been the very best that they had ever heard him preach. With solemn benediction of the blessed sacrament given by the bishop, the procession was again formed and proceeded to the grotto in the cemetery adjoining the church, where the bishop dedicated and blessed the memorial Lourdes grotto for public benediction and devotion. With the Te Deum Laudamus intoned by the bishop and sung by the parish choir, school children and the entire multitude gathered, the procession again started and escortfed the bishop to the parish house, where he heartily thanked each and every one present for their willing participation in giving honor to God and to our Lady of Lpurdes, and thus passed in church history an event which has gone down as the most impressive and memorable evar witnessed in McHenry county. ST. JOHN'S CATHOLIC CHURCH With the ceremonies over the bishop was heard to express himself to the clergy present as highly elated with the reception tendered and with the splendid co-operation on the part of the parishioners and visitors which manifested itself \hruout. Especially pleasing to the bishop was the sight which greeted his eyes as he stepped out onto the pdt-ch of the parish house just before the start of the procession to the church. Rev. Wm. Weber, pastor of St. John's church, and whose untiring efforts have been mainly responsible' for the bridging about of such an important event for Johnsburg, wishes in this manner^ to express public thanks to everyone present and especiallyxso to the bishop, the visiting clergy and the various societies. While there wasn't any way of keeping a record of the various cities and towns represented, some idea can be gained thru the fourth degree Knights of Columbus, who were here from Aurora, Elgin, Harvard, Woodstock and McHenry. Among those present from a distance were a couple whose names we were unable to obtain, but they came all the way from Tennessee to be present at the dedication. Jos. Mehring, a brother of the deceased pastor in whose memory the grotto was erected, was also here from Huntington, Ind. PRODUCING 4,000 CARS A DAY SB •W"..

And, accdrding to an official statement from the factory at Detroit, the demand for Ford cars and trucks still exceeds #ie output, despite the fact that a new high level of production has been reaehed. By the first of May the figures representing daily production were fn the neighborhood of 4,000 a day, so the May schedule was set at 101,125 cars and trucks, not including the output (>f the Ford Canadian plant or any of the foreign assembling plants. The output mounted daily. May 12 brought forth 4,092, the greatest number that have been produced in one day so far this year. Since the month has twenty-five working days, present indications point to a new high record. A comparison of Ford production figures for 1920 and 1921 discloses the fact that for April, 1921, the output was greater by 34,514 than for the corresponding month of a year ago. The output for May, 1921, will probably overshadow May, 1920, by between fifteen and twenty, thousand cars and trucks. Approximately 43,000 mqp are at work in the Detroit plant of the Ford Motor company. The factory is operating in full time, six days a week and three shifts a day. We were never in better condition than we are right now," said Henry Ford recently. ~~ .Birds ~ ~ Readers of The Plaindealer, who are bird ahd nature lovers, will, no doubt, be interested in knowing how many different kinds of birds inhabit the Fox river valley during the summer months.

He was born in 1844, the son of lEdward and Katharine Aylward, who fibrought theiV family from Ireland in 1849 and settled at Lake Geneva, Wis. At the breaking out of the Civil war in 1861, though not yet seventeen years of age. he volunteered his services and was enlisted in Co. F, fourth Wisconsin cavalry, serving during the entire war and for over a year after in the regular army. Many and interesting were the stories he enjoyed relating to his children, grandchildren and friends of the various battles and marches in which he tcok part. A spirit of adventure, fostered by this experience, induced him, with a lad of his own age as a companion, to cross the continent to California, a long and dangerous journey in those days. Still unsatisfied they continued their journey by water to Central America and Venezuela, hoping they might strike a fortune in this unknown part of the country, but finally rounding Cape Horn and returning home by way of New York. . Five trips to California were^made after this land on the last one he brought the remains of his daughter, Margaret, whom he had taken there in quest of health. By a strange coincidence he was laid to rest on the seventeenth anniversary of her burial in St. Patrick's cemetery in McHenry. On Dec. 25, 1877, he was united in marriage to Mary Cle$ry, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Michael Cleary and sister of Patrick Cleary and Mrs. John McCarthy of McHenry. They settled on a farm near Lake Geneva, £tly near dr. igar<! former in young womanhood and the latter in infancy. In 1899 Mrs.-Ay 1- jward joined them and after a few. j years Mr. Aylward left the farm and retired to the village of Solon. | He was known as an exemplary {father and an upright, honorable man I among his old neighbors and friends, ! as was testified by the large number I who visaed him in his last illness and who came to pay him a last tribute at j his funeral in - McHenry, where he was laid beside hi? wife, and daughters after a high mass by Rev. M. J. Evoy on Monday morning. Thus another of our old sotdifers has gone to his eternal reward, leaving the ranks almost vacant. ^Wrapped in the flag of his country he was tenderly borne to his last resting place by six of hia. nephews, followed by a great aumber of relatives and friends, Card of Thanks' We wish to return our most sincere | thanks to oiir friends and neighbors ;for their kind sympathy and respect :te our beloved father. . i !
