SMITH BORS W, McHENRY, ILLINOIS fct M' . tg PAUL II ff«r Ik Wyoming A * The following letter, written by5 Paul Stoffel, son of Mjj. and Mrs. John Stoffel, to his sister, Martha, who holds a government position at Washington, D. C., will be of interest to his many young friends here: Troop B, 15th Cavalry, Post D. A. Russell, Wyo., July 2, 19l)9. Dear Sister--I hope you will forgive me for not writing sooner, but you see it was like this: We arrived at Hoboken, N. J., the 19th and went to Camp Mills. I should have notified you, but was very busy, had no money with which to send a telegram, felt like a cootie, thought I looked like a cootie and who know, maybe I was somewhat of a cootie. Had to demobilise 73 men and discharge 14 more so you see the excuse is reasonable. And then 1 had been thru the delouser and my clothes were pressed entirely too many times and I wouldhave been embarrassed to have any one I knew, much less my sister, look at me. Anyhow, I expected you to know that I had safely dodged the. submarines and the French Miles, because you work in Washington and there are the brains of the army (I don't mean you), so I supposed you had an idea of troop movements. I notified you a long time ago that I was due to arrive before January, 1920. I expected you to appear most any time at Camp Mills to surprise me, but I would have fooled you, as I would not have been surprised. It looks as if we both were fooled. I will call it quits if you will. We left at 4:00 a m. the 23rd and* arrived here the evening, of the 26th. was interested very much in the scenery on the way and soon came to the conclusion that France is pretty, but there is no place like the U. S. A. The quarters here are very good, claimed by some who had ought to know to be the best in the U. S. Wyoming is very pretty and picturesque. Just what I like, beaucoup mountains and beaucoup prairifes. The towns are small, few and far apart We are only a short way from Cheyenne on the street car line. It is the largest town in the state. An idea of its site may be gotten when you learn that it supports four movies and no vaudeville. My first impression of it was not very good. Everything is fcattle. It is a commonplace thing to see the streets crowded with punchers all dressed in their Sunday regalia of chaps and broad hats. Frontier day (the gala occasion of the entire west) is held here every year. It is to be held thin month on the 23rd, 24th and 25th. Needless to say I intend tti be presn ent. * In one of my letters I mentioned having two nicely decorated one pound French shells. They are very pretty and will make excellent flower "vases or other useful souvenirs. I have carried them a long ways in France and a longer ways in the U S. an/1 have decided that they have traveled far enough with me so if you want them say so and they will be started on another long journey. Will call it quits until I hear from you. Love to you and beaucoup love to Evelyn. - Paul. FEED DEALERS ENJOY PICNIC Held at Lake Geneva, Wis., Last Week Wednesday NRY. ILL. XMUASDAY.

Hayes Is Made President of Association• A anmber from this village attended the fourth annual picnic and con vention of the Illinois-Wisconsin Millers' and Feed Dealers' association held at Lake Geneva, Wis., on Wednesday of last week. The event was attended by about 150 members, their families and invited friends. Most of the visitors motored to the Wisconsin summer resort. The occasion proved the most delightful in the history of the association. In the forenoon a business session of the members took place at community hall in that city, at which time new officers were elected as follows: C. D. McArthur of Elgin, president; E. L. Mills of Lake Mills, Wis., vice president; D. B. Boyle of Marengo, 111., secretary and treas urer, the latter succeeding F. E. Co valt of this village, who has held the office and discharged the duties there' of with perfect satisfaction to the members and credit to himself. The directors are: F. A. Cooley, West McHenry; „ P. F. Rosenthal, Crystal Lake; Clarence Fronke, Algonquin; H. H. Bosshard, Woodstock; Win. Fronke, Jefferson, Wis., and CI F. Yerges, Reeseville, Wis. ' During the noon hour a delicious banquet was served at the Lakeside Inn, after which a steamer was chartered and a trip around the beautiful lake enjoyed. A delightful program, with music and dancing, made up a mpst pleasant afternoon and, t# say the least, everyone present was more than satisfied with this year's outing. Those from this village who were present to enjoy the event were: Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Covalt, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Spencer and daughters, Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Cooley and daughter, Opal, and Mrs. Jack Walsh and daughter, Catherine. The association now has a membership of 190 with new applications coming in right along and is already considered one of the strongest organizations of its kind in this country. So well pleased were the members with the time had and the treatment received that it was decided to again hold their outing at Lake Geneva next year. All kinds of home bakery goods at the A.

Niesen McHenry Phone 86-W Beer Still on Track A carload of beer, which arrived in McHenry just after the country had gone dry, is still on the siding in the local yards of the C. & N. W. R. R. Co. The consignee has refused to accept the shipment and for the reason that instructions from the brewery which made the shipment are still being awaited the car, with its cargo, has been allowed to remain in the yards here during all this time. A claim agent for the railway company, who happened thru here one day last week, caused the car to be opened and the contents examined, when it was discovered that the onetime almost precious liquid is spoiled.
