The forty-five members of the combined orchestras of Crystal Lake and McHenry gave a concert which far exceeded the hopes of their most enthusiastic admirers. While the ability and faithful work of the members of the orchestras cannot be overpraised, much of the credit for the fine performance is due to the able direction of E. N. Sears. It was his direction which made the elaborate program possible. The orchestra opened the concert with a march, "The North Wind," followed by "The Princess of India," anoverture. Throughout the evening a splendid variety was obtained through such selections as "The Glow Worm," "Spanish Dance," Eternal Spring," and The Spirit of Minstrelsy." In addition to the orchestra there were three solo numbers which added much to the enjoyment of the evening. A trombone solo, "Holy City," given by Earl Conway, a member of the Senior class of the McHenry high school, proved his wonderful musical ability. This was followed by a violin solo, "To the Wild Rose," by Miss Marie j Niesen, who was accompanied on the, piano by her, sister. Miss Isabel Nie-j sen. , J One of 'the outstanding features of the evening wag-a trio of violin, 'cello the and piano, with - Mi«« Margaret Schubbe at the violin, Miss Esther Teckler at the 'cello and Miss Florence Kammin at the piano.

DODGE GARAGE Enter -Building Through a Rear Window Monday Night; * Secure $25 Robbers entered the Dodge garage on Main street some 'time Monday night and made way with about $25 in cash. This garage is owned by James Morrow & Son of Waukegan, with Glenn R. Gunderson as manager. It is evident that the robbery was committed by some one familiar with the place and who had been in the garage some time during the day previous and unlocked one of the rear windows. This made it a very easy matter for the person, whoever it was, to gain entrance at nigfrt as it was quite easy to raise the window •nd cliihb into the building. Nothing else was molested and the box of change was the only thing missing. The joke was really on the robber, however, as right beside the box that he took was another box containing nearly $50 which he did not notice and which was found unmolested! r MEETING OF DAIRYMEN AT WOODSTOCK, SATURDAY A mass meetinfe of the northern Illinois dairymen will be held at Woodstock in the city hall, Saturday afternoon, Nov. 20, starting at 1:30 o'clock.
