The Plaindealer isn't going to say who is to blame, if. either of the two drivers, but will relate tha accident just as it was given to us. A touring car, owned and driven by Dr. D. N. Brown of Chicago, had rounded the corner at the Martin B. Schmitt barber shop on Main street and was proceeding west towards the railroad tracks. It was the intention of the driver and his party to stop at Vogt's drug store. At a point near the West McHenry State bank the driver started to make the turn and just as he had his machine about half way around he noticed an approaching car. Seeing his danger and in a frantic effort to avoid a collision the doctor started to straighten his car, but it was too late. The second car, owned by J. C. Bickler of the McHenry House and driven by his son, William, was also traveling west on Main street and, according to the driver, he was about to pass the other car when same suddenly and unexpectedly started to make the turn. In the collision which resulted the Chicago car was thrown against the gasoline pump in front of the M. A. Thelen harness shop with sufficient force as to ruin the pump. This car was damaged but little. In the car with Dr. Brown at the time of the accident were his son-in-law, J. E. Hauswirth of this village, and the latter's daughter and two nephews. The Bickler car, in the smash-up landed against an electric light pQSt and received considerable damage, but fortunately the driver escaped with but a slight injury to his leg. Will Leave McHenry. Anton Schneider and faiiiHy, Who have made this village their home for many years past, expect to leave between now and July 1 for Eagle River, Wis., where they will take charge of the "Rest Farm," owned by Chas. A. Comiskey, owner of the Chicago White Sox bueball team. Mr. and Mrs. Comiskey were out from Chicago last Thursday, at which time a decision was reacheu by the McHenry family to go to Wisconsin. Mr, Comiskey has been after Mr. Schneider for a long time to take the position'and now he has finally consented to do so. Their many McHenry friends will be sorry to learn that they are to leave, but all join in wishing them the best of luck in their new home and surroundings. Cemeteries Looking Beautiful A trip thru the various cemeteries here reveals their well kept condition, something in which each and every one of us should feel a particular pride. Those who have, thru neglect or otherwise, lost sight of these memorial spots should make it a point to visit these, the last resting places of our beloved ones, and we are sure that by so doing their annual contribution in support of the up-keep of our burial grounds will come without solicitation. Joseph Kehler Dead ' Joseph Kohler, father of Mrs. Ferdinand Frett, passed away in Chicago last Wednesday, June 8. The funeral took place from St. James' church at 9:30 o'clock last Saturday morning, with interment in St. Boniface cemetery. The deceased was well and favorably known to a number of our readers as he had been a frequent visitor in the summer home of Mr. and Mrs. Frett here during the past few seasons. Milk Producers, Attention A meeting of the local union of the Milk Producers' association will take place at the Woodman hall in this village on Friday evening of this week, June 17, at 7:30 o'clock. The last spread of the association will be up for a thoro discussion and every member is urgently requested to attend. W. J. Walsh, Pres. w, e C. L. Page, Sec'y.

The picnic is to he held in M. A. Conway's woods near this village, east of the river, on Saturday, June 25. Three good speakers have already been secured, which gives assurance that this part of the day's program will be worth while. W. J. Kittle of Crystal Lake will have a rousing talk for the farmers, Mrs. Joanna Downs of Chicago, president of the Woman's Auxiliary to the Milk Producers' association, will tell what her organization Kas done and is doing, while Prof. Larsgn of the Illinois state university will talk on agriculture in the interest of the IHinois Agricultural association. Each of the various units of the county milk producers is expected to contribute towards the entertainment for the day and in this manner it is the hope of the workers to have a program that will be' varied and most entertaining for the big crowd that is sure to attend. The music for the occasion will be furnished by the McHenry brass band, while the various concessions will be in charge of the McHenry post of the American Legion. Invitations to attend the picnic have been extended to not only every local •TO McHenry county, but to locals of neighboring counties as well, and this invitation also goes out to the public in general, which means that all those who wish to do so may join the dairymen and their friends on this one big occasion. One of the big attractions in the line of sports will be a baseball game between the McHenry club and some outside nine. The opposing teeun for McHenry has hot as yet been selected, altho the committee hopes to have this matter disposed of within the course of the next few days.
