Edgar Nye, Supt. LETTER FROM TEXAS W. H. Mead Tells of Conditions Down Sfeuth The following letter from the pen of a former McHenry boy, who is now making his home at Raymonds- ville, Texas, will be interesting to our readers: Raymondsville, Texas, Oct. 5, 1915. McHenry Plaindealer, McHenry, 111. Friend Schreiner--Enclosed find check for subscription to Plaindealer. Times are h-- down here just now and if Carranza is not recognized soon may the Lord help us, and if he is Lord help those on the upper border around El Paso when Villa turns loose. There his been a cleaning up in this9county of the worst Mexicans by the civilians, but the job was not quite finished when the military officers put a. 8top to it and declared a closed season on the Mexicans and stopped the hunting. The soldiers don't know how to hunt them at all and are busy protecting themselves and the towns. We have a few soldiers at our store, but if things get much worse at the iriver they will all be called together and have a real fight. I have been shot at three times, oom While my wife was riding with me, and I "have reasons to believe" that I wiU^ever be shot at again by the same Mexican. Manylhave moved north and wo may fol w", but not until we are con* polled to%° it. •vrsv-r--, • 'in.-Mm } • * v' WHEN YOUNG -31* "* . /"It fip--Tsp r&vp; -v: « r-f: f|E importance of beginning to save when young cannot be over-estimated.

Feds Win Again Not satisfied to quit with three de­ feats, the Irish Prairie boys took an­ other lacing from the McHenry Feds at the local ball yard last Sunday aft­ ernoon before a very respectable look­ ing crowd of fans. The visitors opened the proceedings with Warner, the McHenry Sox catcher, on the fir­ ing line, but for some reason not yet made public he made way for Peter­ son in the early rounds. Warner kept the Feds well in hand during his stay in the pitchers' box, but Peterson's offerings seemed to be just to the liking of the Feds, and as a result the home crew had little trouble in batting out an 8 to 3 victory. Ross- man did the bombarding for the Feds and was in fine shape. At one time, with the bases loaded, he struck out Warner, this proving the feature per­ formance of the day. While consid­ erable rivalry exists between the members of the two teams which bat­ tled each, .other last Sunday, they are all considered home boys and . by put­ ting together the cream of the two teams wo believe McHenry would be given,.a pretty fair little amateur team and we hope that by another season this will be done. * The attend­ ance at Sunday's game plainly showed that the followers of baseball are sat­ isfied to watch the home boys in action and we believe if they get to­ gether and organize they will be giv­ en excellent support from the fans next season. It has been proven be­ yond a shadow of a doubt that McHen­ ry will not support a salaried team, so why not give the home boys, who - - HAVE you ever been in love?
