Price, $1.00, $1.50, $2.00 and $2.50 JOHN STOFFEL WEST McHENRY It remained for the Wauconda team to hand .the McHenry Sox their first trimming of the season and this they did after a hard up-hill fight on the local diamond last Sunday afternoon. The final score was 2 to 1. The game proved a scrappy one from start to finish. On two different occasions during the1 afternoon's pas- timing the athletes, together with the two "umps," consumed several min­ utes in arguihg some of .the finer points of the great national game and when the second halt came it looked as if the contest would not be finished as some of the visitors were inclined to pack up and beat it. However, matters were finally patched up and play resumed. The game proved a pitchers' battle, with Warrender besting Sahlberg by a slight shade. Warrender,' allowed one* more hit than our little south paw, but Sahlberg became a little un­ steady in the seventh and eighth, hit­ ting two men and passing another in these two frames. This, together with a couple of passed balls by Warner, proved our undoing and gave the game to Wauconda. McHenry scored her first and only tally in the first round and threw away a chance to score in the seventh when Warner failed to understand orders. Wauconda's first score was registered in the seventh, while the winning run was scored by Schroll in the suc­ ceeding inning. The game by innings: First inning: Comiskey threw out W. Bartel. H.

GEIER'S COLTS WIN Defeat K. of C. Team in Three Straight Games Monday Night THE (flit of Ms With food prices in the skies, it becomes necessary to practice discrimination in the selection of food products, to make every purchase count. Food values must be studied. One must get a full return in nutriment for one's money. THE HIGHEST NOT ALWAYS BEST Many articles of equal food values cost much less than others. We can show you a line of food prod­ ucts that will in a large measure offset the high prices on others. We can materially assist you in keeping down the prices. M. M.

Geier was a close second with an aver­ age of 161. McHenry has a number of pretty fair bowlers and we predict that some exciting contests will be pulled off here the coming fall. Game Next Sunday The McHenry Sox will entertain the Libertyville team on the home grounds next Sunday afternoon. Libertyville has one of the strongest teams that has represented that city in years and they are coming to McHenry to avenge the defeat handed a Liberty­ ville team here a couple of seasons &go. Don't miss this game. Learned Flying In McHenry Waukegan Gazette: Altho Dr. C. H. Albrecht never rode in an areo- plane he has had all the»thrills of fly­ ing. Years ago, when he lived in Mc­ Henry, he used to go ice sailing with friend. They took a little sail on Fox lake and Fox river one day when the wind was blowing a young hurri­ cane. The longer they sailed the faster they went. When the ice boat was hitting up about sixty miles an hour, they encountered a snag frozen in the ice. When the boat hit the snag it completely left the surface of the lake and sailed fully 100 feet be­ fore it again struck the ice. Trains Taken Off Two trains were taken from this service on Monday. The north bound passenger arriving her at 10:04 and the south bound passenger leaving this station at 12:25 are the ones that were discontinued on that day. No reason for the discontinuance of these two trains has been given, altho we presume that they failed to pay. Wins Automobile Joe Weber, employed at the Mc­ Henry House, held the lucky number that won the automobile at a rafle held here last Saturday night. The ma­ chine is a seven passenger Columbia touring car and was formerly owned by Jos. J. Rothermel. Weber's num­ ber was 637.

CHICAGO Worse and More of It That the editor and publisher, as •never before, is now being taxed be­ yond the capacity of the columns of his paper for space to give free no- jtices for different things of a patri­ otic or public charitable nature. He is almost daily asked to do his "war bit" and the boys are nobly boosting Uncle -Sam and are glad to do so. However, in return and as a likely reward, the order is said to soon issue that he will be taxed in real money on his advertising space. All this happened, too, after he is shook down by the paper trust. In addition to meeting his other duties as an ordi­ nary citizen he feels it is time to cry "help." Higher Milk Prices Predicted A marked advance in the whole­ sale price of milk, perhaps as much as 25 or 30 cents a hundred pounds, is predicted by Secretary W. J. Kittle, secretary of the Milk Producers' asso­ ciation for the coming winter. A hundred pounds contains about forty- seven quarts. The present price scale, $2.12 a hundred pounds, is the highest on record. Mr. Kittle has just returned from a conference of milk producers of fifteen states at Wash­ ington. He declares corn is scarce and everything points to a higher cost of production. OREGON & CALIFORNIA RAIL­ ROAD CO. GRANT LANDS. Legal fight over land at last ended. Title revested in United States.
