From all directions, paved roads lead into McHenry. Over those roads on busy weekends pour a monotonous stream of automobiles, the chain broken by an occasional motorcycle, bi« cycle of maybe a hitch-hiker. There is early evidence that th® year 1938. will hold it's place in maintaining the popularity of this fine vacation territory. With the first fi.ne day of spring, came resorters galore --cars and trailers loaded down with necessary household equipmnet, rakes, shovels, and what not. Getting these summer homes in shfcpe is work, but our city cousins find much pleasure in that kind of work. They like the great open spaces--and who doesn't.^ Local hotels, tourist homes, restaurants, resorts and. in'fact, all business places are looking forward to serving large crowds during the coming Decoration Day weekend. That day officially opens the summer season. Of course, many of our regular visitors will not stay with us until after the Chicago schools have closed for the summer. 1 ' -v: Information comes that building is reaching a new high in lak-> and river regions. At Wonder Lake, contractors are on their merry way toward the completion of four hundred homes. This beautiful lake has attracted many each year until it is fast taking on the ano^arance of a choice residential city.
