The club house at the Glen Crest Country club at Woodstock will be open and serving meals sometime this week. Work on Crystal Lake's first transmitting radio station is now under way.

TER CONDITIONS • ~ In an endeavor to give the people of this summer resort district all of the conveniences now enjoyed in their city homes, the Fox River & Lakes Improvement association, thru its secretary, Jas. F. Mraz, is now communicating with the various public utility corporations. : : 7 Letters addressed to the Illinois, Bell Telephone company- as well as to Mr. Russell, superintendent of highways of Lake county were mailed out from the Chicago office of the secretary last Friday. In the letter to the telephone company it was explained that'imong the objects of the association was included the extension of public utilities into all sections of the summer resort district covered by the association and in order that the secretary might be able to intelligently impart to the members just what is to be expected from the telephone company in the line of extensions and improvements the writer"would be pleased to be informed as to the company's future plans in this direction. On the same day the secretary also addressed a letter to Mr. Russell, superintendent of highways of Lake county, asking just what had been done and the work planned on the roads leading thru that county and extending to the summer resort region. The secretary inferred in this communication that a large number of people owning homes in the lake regions of that county and those who go there for short visits or over vacation periods drive there in automobiles and thereby use Lake county roads to a very considerable extent. He assured the Lake county official that the association would be very pleased to co-operate with him in every way possible. While letters- have not as yet been mailed to the electric light and gas corporations, it is quite likely that these will foll<*tv and it is the hope of the association to accomplish some real results along these lines of endeavor during the season of 1924.

It is doubtful if ever there lived in McHenry township a man or woman who bore greater ill-fortune, pain and strife as did he.

Save nvoney by bringing yonr oU here that such an event generally attracts. We predicted a small vote as compared with our regular spring elections and that our prediction was not amiss will be seen by the fact that the total vote cast was only 250 as compared with 651 as polled at the regular spring election about a month *go. The city administration carried by seven votes, the question deceiving 127 votes as for and 120 as against. Three ballots were thrown out. The total vote cast plainly evidences that more than sixty per cent of the voters of the village weren't sufficiently interested in the matter as to go to the polls. As we see it, this means that these voters did not care what the result of the election might be. Up until the night prior to the election very little work was done to get out some sort of a vote. On Monday evening, however, thru the solicitation of Alderman Simon Stoffel, Atty. Chas. Allen of Cary was brought to McHenry for the purpose of enlightening the voters on the question at tune of losing considerable of his life These troubles and sorrow soon began to undermine his entire , . , , - - system, until a few years ago his con-i',°eS ^ rea s oem r and having dition reached such a state as to them made like new.

The new postmaster during the past five years has been the efficient rural carrier on route No. 1 from the Richmond officc. W. P. Stevens, retiring official, has served in that capacity for eight years. E. C. Covall of Richmond claims the distinction of being the oldest village official, in point of years of service, in the state of Illinois. He has served continuously for a period of twentyone years as president of the village board of that village and this spring was re-elected to another term. Other Fire Chief Peter W. Frett has placed an order for 1,500 tickets for the first annual firemen's dance to be held at the Fox dancing pavilion near this city on the evening of Wednesday, June 20. Inasmuch as the fire company plans the purchase of an equipment that will enable the fighters afternoon j answer calls along Fox river and the territory immediately adjacent to this city, it is the opinion of the chief that those owning summer home3 along our stream as well as rural residents should be willing to assist the department in its endeavor to the meeting extent Qf purchasing a dance ticket. He believes that with a little hustling on the part of the members of the department and those who are for firstclass fire fighting equipment for the city, 1,500 tickets can and will be sold. The tickets will be off the press the latter part of the week. jCITY CLERK RECEIVES VEHICLE LICENSE PLATES provements for putting in a purification plant.

Allen, in his short but interesting address, explained in a thoro and convincing manner that a change from a village to that of a city government would mean a great deal to McHenry and, while not a voter in McHenry, "he expressed the hope that the citizenship would vote favorably on the question. His visit and address to McHenry no doubt bore fruit, as several of those who had listened to him the night previous got busy on Tuesday morning, and as a result we are now a city instead of a village.
