In this issue of the Psiadealer sn announcement will be found which will be of interest to the housewives of this territory. It is by the Skelly Oil Company. The franchise to sell this Skelly product, Skelgas, in snd around McHenry has been given to P. H. Freund, Elm Street, McHenry. Describing Skelgas and its advantages, Mr. Freund said: "Instead of being brought from gas wells through pipe lines or being made in a plant, Skelgas is transported to McHenry in steel cylinders. A convenient, economical supply originates irt the great Skelly Oil Company fields in the Panhandle ofTfexas--a supply that probably will never be exhausted in our lifetime. There is no mystery about this fuel; it is simply natural HONORS DIVIDED ill CRYSTAL LM FIRST TEAM SCORES VICTORY FRIDAY EVENING First Team Loses la Gsrne With St Mary's at Woodstock, Bot g Ponies Win honors were divided at the basketball game at Crystal Lake Friday evening when McHenry's first team cinched the *core by 22 to 17 points, while the second team lost to the Crystal Lak,e lightweights 17 to 6. The Lakers were good losers and gave the McHenry players a friendly welcome with several yells for their visitors being led by the Crystal Lake "cheer leaders. McHenry played sensational ball to win and more than evened up for the defeat received at the hands of the Crystal Lake team a few weeks ago. It was McHenry's night from start to finish, with the team getting the lead and keeping it throughout the game. At the first quarter McHenry was on the long end of the score 7 to 3, while at the half they were leading 16 to 7. Patzke and Frett each made three baskets during the half and free throws were made by Frett and Harrison, while Miller also caged a basket for his team. During the third quarter neither side accomplished much, with Frett making one basket for his team and Cfystal Lake making a free throw and the score stood 18 to 8. During the last quartet the Lakers started dumping in baskets, making nine points during the quarter, but they could not overtake their opponents, whose score Was increased by two buckets caged by Harrison. At the end of the game the score was 22 to 17. Frett was high man in the scoring, with a total of four boskets and s free throw, Patzke was second with three baskets, Harrison had two baskets and a free throw and Miller had a basket. Lightweights Lose In the opening game of the evening the McHenry lightweights loat to the Crystal Lake second team 17 to 6. The game was a good one but the Lakers had the McHenry crew outdistanced from the first with the score at the half standing 6 to 3. Meyers caged a basket and Schreiner scored a free throw for their team while Crystal Lake made three baskets dur ing the half. During the second half O'Shea made a bucket and Whiting gained a free throw while Crystal Lake chalked up eleven points and won the game 17 to 6. St. Mary's First Team Wins On Saturday night Coach McCracken's basketball teams went to Woodstock where they met St. Mary's Green and White squads at the Armory. The honors were again divided, this time McHenry's second team staging a sweeping victory over St. Mary's Ponies, with a score of 20 to 3. The first team, however, lost a hard game to the Green and White, with a final score of 21 to 9. St. Mary's squad has not been able to forget the drubbing they received ft MicHenry not many weeks ago and was out} for revenge, showing the fans just what they can do when they get their fighting Irish up. McHenry is making no alibis as none is needed for the clean, square Second Team Wias The game put over by McHenry second team in the opening encounter of the evening was a stellar one in which they defeated the St. Mary's Ponies 20 to 3, and eclipsed any of their former playing. The boys were out to win and went like greased lightning, the game being theirs from start to finish. Schreiner was the scoring ace with three baskets and four free throws, making ten points that he scored while other scoring was done by Smith, O'Shea and Whiting. i ,Grade School Defeats Harvard On Thursday night the grade school team defeated the Harvard grade school basketball team at the local grade school gym and Saturday forenoon the high school third team defeated a team from the Elgin schools at the local high gym. > The week-end.was a busy one in the county with Woodstock's Blue and White high school squad defeating Harvard 28 to 7. This victory gave them the first place honors in the McHenry county basketball league and they will receive the beautiful Paul Schwabe trophy which they will keep for a year. They have won eight out of nine games in the league and have one left to go.

Hebron won the first game from Huntley by the score of 28 to 12. The second game of the evening was a hard fought one between two of the county's strongest teams, Woodstock and Harvard, the game ending with a win for Woodstock by 26 to 12. Harvard was leading at the first quarter and the score was tied at the half, but from then on to the end the game was Woodstock^.

"Equally convenient and constant in supply as ordinary natural gas, Skelgas is superior because of this purifying process that eliminates unnecessary elements. Processing and compressing this gas means the packing into a single cylinder of 375 burner hours of heat, enough to cook ten weeks for a family of five. "Skelgas burns with a fine blue flame that is three times ss hot as ordinary natural gas and more than five times hotter than manufactured gas. This fine blue flame of Skelgas will not deposit black on pots and pans, and is perfectly clean in every other respect. Besides efficiency and "onvenience, Skelgas will save the housewife many hours formerly spent in cleaning and because it cooks so rapidly it is expected to cut time spent in the "kitchen In half." The entire Skelgas outfit consists of a steel cabinet that houses two cylinders of gss, the pipe equipment for the house, snd the stove or other appliances. The ordinary gas stove 'vith one minor change is used to burn Skelgas. When the supply of one cylinder is exhausted, that cylinder is disconnected, and the other cylinder becomes the source of supply. One has only to call Mir. Freund and the empty cylinder is promptly replaced by a full one. "This product in not something new," Mr. Freund said. "It has long been in the process of perfection by Skelly Oil Company and although only recently introduced here, thousands are in use throughout the country. It is not on experiment but a great asset to every home that uses it." BATCHELOR GIRLS'BRIDGE CLUB j Mrs. H. C.

The floor was hard on the visiting team, as they were not used to playing on a slippery floor and Patzke received a bad fall a4 the result of this. Frett was put out on fouls in the third quarter snd Draper was substituted. The boys of the Orange and Black went into the game with a bang and McHenry's speed demons.had the St. Mary's crew dizzy for awhile, leading the scoring at the first quarter 3 to 1, the three points for McHenry being made by Harrison with a basket and a free throw to his credit. MicHenry lost their lead in the sec-' ond quarter ajid from then on the game was St. Mary's, with the score at the half standing 10 to 3 in favor of the Woodstock team. McHenry was unable to score during the quarter while their opponents stacked up nine points to their favor. - The third quarter was also Sjt. Mary's and they came back after their rest between halves with a fighting attack and piled up ten more points with McHenry only making half that number. The score at the end of the quarter told that St. Mary's were still leading 20 to 8. In this quarter the scoring was done by Harrison with two field geali and Miller with a free throw. Nothing was accomplished in the fourth quarter, with both teams shutting the lid down so tight that only one point for each side was made via the free throw route, Harrison making the point for his team and Desmond making the final shot for his team. The scoring for McHenry was scarce, with Harrison leading with three baskets and two free throws and Miller second with one free throw. St. Mary's guards took it upon themselves to see that Frett and Patzke did not make any points and how well they succeeded is told by the box score. Leonard led in the scoring for St. Mary's with three baskets ond four free throws with his brother second with three boskets and one free throw/ KIWANIS CLUB ENTERTAINS MEMBERS OF CITY TEAMS The members of the M.
