The influence of architecture on a community is not to be doubted. One beautiful building is but the stimulus, ethers follow in due course and now some very expensive and well built homes may be seen in this city, along Pox river and at Pistakee Bay. An expensive home for N. A. Strand at Pistakee Bay was completed during the year and many fine summer homes were built along the Pox river aad lakes and at the subdivisions opened up at Wonder lake and Mc- Collum's lake. Riverside Drive still boasts of its share of building with a new home completed for Roy Kent and an attractive summer home put up for A. M. Kuehne. A "Wilbrandt built a large house on the Ringwood road, near Sherman's hill, and a new filling station was built at the corner of Routes 61 and 20 for Ni<k p. jua_ fan. The bridge over the railroad tracks on Route 61 was finished early in the summer and opened for the Fourth of July traffic. Michael McCarthy of Chicago also established aome greenhouses on. Route 6] during the year and was well started on a big and paying proposition when his career was suddenly ended by the band of death which took him from the midst of his plana. Not many lots were sold daring the fBpr and property changed hands Jjowly, but many cottages have hitfH en lofa fdready owned by CM_ Henry, Dundee and Crystal Lake and sponsored by the Mothers club and Daughters of America. The local American Legion post was host to the county meeting with 250 in attendance, the speaker being the department commander, Edward Hayes. The Izaak Waltons also held a big meeting with as many present with the state president. Dr. P- R. Blodgett, as the guest of honor. Three Star Scouts received their badges during the year, being Arthur Cox, Anthony Wirtz and Lowell Nye. Riverview Camp, R. N. A., celebrated its nineteenth birthday anniversary. Fox River Valley Camp celebrated its twenty-fourth birthday and McHenry chapter, Order of the Eastern Star, observed its silver anniversary during the year. The Waltonians will continue their efforts towards the location of a federal fish hatchery in this vicinity during the coming year. . New Pastors The churches have had a successful year with, impressive services on Easter and Christmas. A new pastor, Rev. H. P- Meyer, came to the Lutheran church, and Father Weber resigned as pastor of St. John'? church at Johnsburg after sixteen years of service and his place was filled by Father Vollman. The schools also had a busy year, with a graduating class of twentynine leaving the Community high school on May 31. The year opened with the largest enrollment ever recorded in the high school, with 200 pupils enrolled and a new teacher was added because of the increased attendance. The high school band won Will Quiaa Host at Party Will Quinn entertained a party of friends at a Christmas party and oldtime frolic at the hall at Spring Grove Saturday evening.

That is the praetieally unanimous verdict of McHenry residents as voiced following the observ§oce of Christmas day. Perhaps the principal reason behind the majority opinion may be found in the fact that McHenry this year was assured that its less fortunate citizens were amply provided for. Throughout this area hundreds of people abandoned worry and care, substituting in their place the three graces, faith, hope and charity, and filled their hearts with the merriment auundanliy supplied by the annuai adfent of the year's principal holiday. More children were made happy and more clothing and more food was given to deserving families this Christmas than at any other time in history and McHenry was thoroughly searched that there might be no family nor any child overlooked who was deserving assistance. Good Fellows, working untier the guidance of the Mothers club and the Catholic Daughters of America, cared for an unestimated number of families and provided necessary" clothing, shoes, underwear and outer garments in addition to ten Christmas baskets distributed by the Daughters of America and twelve baskets distributed by Hyman Horwitz, one of Mc- Henry's kind and generous neighbors. These Good Fellows, organized in a several week's campaign, left their routine occupations in their homes and visited local households in their investigations of the needs of our people and later brought good cheer^by returning with the fulfillment of many of their direst needs. Evidence of widespread faith and hope has been given plentifully by many shoppers crowding local stores during the last three weeks. Judging by preliminary sales volume estimates the 1930 Christmas season - fulfilled the fondest hopes of merchants ut the city, assuring satisto every faithful devotee of Santa Claus, who traveled far and wide, leaving in his wake a distinguished trail of filled stockings. Charity, impelled possibly more than ever before by necessity, has been in greater evidence than in past years and every need which was known to the local Good Fellows in this vicinity was supplied. In addition to giving out ten baskets of food the Daughters of America gave new clothing in many places where it was needed and also sent used clothing which had been donated to the orphanage at Freeport. The baskets donated by this society, as well as those given by Mr. Horwitz, were filled with numerous good things to eat, including many of the staple articles, a little treat, and some held a chicken and others a ham. The Mbthers club also supplied many articles of new clothing to many in need of underwear, shoes, stockings, overcoats, dresses and suits, and they plan to follow up the Christmas baskets in a few weeks with more baskets filled with additional food. This work which gotten so well under way will not end with the Christmas season, but will continue throughout the winter and all through the year as emergencies and cases of need arise. Thus the spirit of Christmas will continue even though the day itself has gone into history with the year of 1930 and the, faith and hope instilled by charity will remain to warn the hearts of those who give as. well as those who receive. mMS Of INTEREST TAKEN FROM COLUMNS OF OUR EXCHANGES Three men broke inte the Chicago and Northwestern depot at Caxyf about 2 o'clock one morning recently. m.M .t 5:30 „„ Chrirt™, Z I'iL'tS when Marso'8 first Mass in F l •»«"»»*. ttot tto sou„nngtr vbyv the c_huo-{i_r .

A ton of wheat dumped into the hold of a vessel bound for Hamburg will travel fifteen and onehalf miles for a cent, or, if going to Genoa, about nineteen and one-half milesy Steel going to Liverpool will travel two and one-half miles for one small copper. In fact, the average rate per ton per mile for transportation of all merchandise on the railroads of >the United States is 1.09 cents.
