W xYL»5Jl1 McHe&ry Youngster* Defeat Woffl- stock KMa Sunday Interest fire* Our leatitu- lion of Learning'* - A surprisingly large number of foot­ ball fans turned out last Sunday aft­ ernoon to look oyer the McHenry football timber and- incidentally see our youngsters run away from a team composed of Woodstock lightweights. While there was just enough foot­ ball shown to prove to the McHenry followers that we have enough timber with which to construct a fairly good team, the game was marred by con­ siderable rag chewing, iii which the visitors carried the leadingT-ole. How­ ever, in spite of this, the fans seemed to enjoy the game and went home sat­ isfied with the entertainment with which they had been furnished. No sooner had the referee's whistle sounded the call for play before Mc­ Henry started on a march towards their goal and before many minutes had elapsed Miller went over the top for our first touch-down. In view of the fact that it was McHenry's first game and coupled with the fact that there were many new men in our 1ine-up, our boys were penalized quite frequently, most of the set-backs coming as the result of off-side plays. Miller, Bonslett, Boyle, A. Justen and Meyers did the best work for Mc­ Henry. Miller never failed to gain ground when it was left for him to do so, while Boyle and Bonslett also prqved goocf'ground gainers. Albert Justen made the longest gain of the day when he carried the ball from the thirty yard line for a touch-down. Besides these, Meyers' tackling also proved one of the features of the game. Woodstock's best work *of the day was in the execution of the forward pass. The visitors executed several of these plays before McHenry could break them up. McHenry, too, tried' the pass on several different occasions, but most of their trials at this style of play were incomplete. The final score was 31 to 0. The line-up of the McHenry team was as follows: George Feltz. Arthur Freund.. Leonard Frett.. Chas. Frett Henry Miller..., Albert Justen... Ed. Boyle....... Geo. Justen Center .... ..Bight Guard ... .Right Tackle ...... .Right End .......

IS ACTING SERGEANT Former Mchenry Boy Is Given Hon­ ors In" North Dakota On their departure for camp The Transcript, published at New Rock- ford, NT Unpublished a souvenir soldier edition,\wliich contained a short mention of all officers, together with a half-tone picture of each. In­ cluded among the officers we find the name of Martin J. Weber, son of Mr. and Mrs. Huhert Weber of this vil­ lage. The Transcript had the following to say regarding the McHenry boy: "Sergeant Weber, before joining Company B, was a farmer and his parents reside in McHenry, 111. He was always known around New Rock- ford as Happy Weber, for he was al­ ways laughing and trying to get some­ thing funny on some one else. Just before leaving for Camp Greene he was appointed as Acting sergeant. "One thing that was noticeable the day the boys left for the training camp was that whenever 'Happy' met anyone who teeemed sad or a little down hearted he was ready with the big smile or with some joke to change the situation. Just before the train pulled out he started everyone at the station singing 'Smile, Smile Smile' and everyone had it." Minors Ndt Wanted * The Plaindeaier has been requested by the saloonkeepers of the village to say that minors are not welcome in their places of business.' Every once in a while a minor iji getting a saloon­ keeper into trouble and since the sa­ loonkeeper has no way of telling, only from outward appearances, whether or not a young man entering his place of business is of legal age, they are asking the co-operation of parents in McHenry and vicinity. If you have a boy who has not reached his majority and you know him to be. a. frequenter of saloons you'll be conferring the saloonkeepers a favor by notifying them to this effect They in turn will see to it that the boy is not served with drinks and will do everything else within reason to operate their places in strict accordance with law and order So far as we are able to learn, the saloons in McHenry are all prop­ erly conducted at this time and if the pa cents will kindly give these men their ce-operation we are sure that there will be no trouble recording minors in the future. Flag Raising at Hebron The flag raising, which was to have taken place at Hebron some time ago, but on account of unforeseen difficul­ ties had to be postponed, will take place in front of the town hall in that, village tomorrow (Friday) even­ ing, Oct. 26. The Walworth band has been engaged, while Hon. E. IX Shurt- leff of Marengo will deliver a patriotic address. With favorable weather con­ ditional Hebron hopes to entertain large crowd on this occasion, * I W. Buchert was a county seat caller last Arthur Stolzke is a^netr pupil in room five. , ' The juniors are new wearing their class rings. Verona Niesen wais absent irom school Monday. Room five has Started relief work for Belgium babies. The senior class was treated to a modern history test last Tuesday. Any donations to the high school magazine racks will be, greatly appre­ ciated. Room five is also going to celebrate Saturday evening by giving a Hal­ lowe'en party. Some pupils have found it necessary to spend a whole day in the office, on account of deportment.' Mr. Dorr was called to Chicago on Wednesday by Uncle Sam for exam­ ination in the aviation corps. All high schobl students are antic­ ipating a good time at the sophomore Hallowe'en party next Friday night. Mr. and Mrs. Wilson of Hebron came to inspect our school system on Monday morning of this week. Mr. Wilson is the present superintendent at that place. School was dismissed Wednesday at noon. Why? So the high school students might have time to arrange the matters regarding the purchase of a liberty bond. Quite a few of the high school students and some of the grade pupils are wearing liberty bond buttons. This is certainly a sign of thrift amongst the youth of our community. The following is from a boy's his­ tory examination .paper: "General Braddock was killed in the revolution­ ary war. He had three horses shot under him and a fourth went thru his clothes." Cards have been received., at the superintendent's office announcing a contest in which Gov. Lowden offers flags to the schools having the most liberty bond sales to theirk credit. Children's patriotic day occurs Friday. Chirdren's patriotic day will be ob­ served Oct. 26, 1917. • Help the children to * Help win the war. Help them to buy a bond Help them to sell a bond.

If any person having any odd pieces of yarn which they would be will­ ing to donate to room five, kindly in­ form the teacher, Mrs. Wray, or any of the pupils of that room and they shall be- called for. Any donation, however small, will be heartily ap­ preciated. Rev. Draper of Chicago, who is con­ ducting a series of meetings at the M. E. church, entertained the. high school students at opening exercises on Monday morning, accompanied by Miss Stevens, who sang several per­ fectly rendered songs. The short/talk by Mr. Draperwas highly appreciated by all. OREGON & CALIFORNIA RAIL­ ROAD CO. GRANT LANDS. Legal fight over land at last ended. Title! revested in United States.
