HERBERT HOOVER c «H the only living ^ # - ' Ex-president of tiie United Stein He most be lonesome with that uiatiucuon! LET'S MAKE IT TWO on November 5 a-5 "A day never to be forgotten,** Is the manner in which the pastor, Rev. Wm. O'Rourke. and the parishioners of St. Patrick's church, McHenry, | describe last Sunday, the4ay on which they commemorated the centennial anniversary of this, the first church in McHenry. Seventy-two priests and monsignori were present during the day to make the pontifical mass at 11:00 a most solemn affair, impressive and colorful, and to share the good will and friendship with the enormous crowd which turned out for the occasion. Sixtysix of these priests were served a most delicious dinner following the lengthy mass, the cooks having been under the guidance of Mrs. George Schreiner. Under the capable direction of Mrs.. Carl Weber, the choir members, figuratively. put their hearts into their voices, offering their songs, the highest form of prayer, in a manner most pleasing. Papal Blessing To make the occasion complete, from across the seas came the blessi"^ and congratulations of Pope Pius XII in a letter which was read by His Excellency. Most Rev. Edward F. Hoban, S. T. D., who was celebrant of the mass. Wfoving pictures were taken of the celebration, at the mass, in the park, and throughout the day. The colored films will be most beautiful, as the large new church, and the quaint, tumble-down worshippintr place of a century ago were resplendent in colorful decorations. Drapings were in yel'ow and white, the papal colors, and also in red, white and blue, the national colors. After thfe mass, between 200 and 800 people gathered in the city park to enioy basket lunches. Sandwiches and free coffee were'served by a committee with Mrs. Anna Miller as its chairman. To provide a pleasant background, the city band presented a concert during the mealtime and the Crystal Lake Drum and Bugle corps gave a spirited demonstration, the latter also leading the procession to the local high school auditorium for the afternoon program. On behalf of the oeoplp whose city he represents. Mayor R. I. Overton of McHenry oresented a plaque which expressed deep gratitude for the many great works accomplished by the priests who have served this parish and the high ideals which the oarishioneres themselves have inspired in the community. Bishop Hoban was at the auditorium that afternoon to deliver a very apnropriate address, as was Rev. Wm. J. Donovan, superintendent of schools of the Rockford diocese, who reviewed the nrogresg of religious history durin«r the nast century, likewise the inventions during the spme era. Former Pastor Present Father Hackett, of East Dubuque, a former pastor, related numerous happenings during his stay in McHenry. Father O'Rourke. present pastor, contributed his lively bit to the program, bespeaking his great happiness at the co-operation displayed by all concerned to make this a day of days. Short greetings from prominent members of the parish. Peter Doherty, Mrs. Jack Walsh and the Hon. Thomas A. Bolger. were also appreciated by ttefawge LOCAL FRIENDS HAPPY AS J ALBERT WOLL IS NAMED U. S. ATTORNEY A local touch was added to the nomination Tuesday of J. Albert Woll who is to succeed William J.

OVER 400 WOMEN AT WILLKIE MEETING IN WOODSTOCK SATURDAY A record crowd of nearly 400 women from all parts of McHenry county were in attendance Saturday afternoon at the Woodstock opera house to hear two of the most outstanding women speakers on the Republican platform this year. Mrs. Kellogg Fairbank, former Democratic national committeewoman of Illinois for two terms and Mrs. Bertha Baur. Illinois national Republican committeewoman were the guests of the McHenry County Volunteer Women Workers for Willkie for the afternoon. Mrs. Fairbank, prominent socially and authoress of acknowledged merit, made a lasting impression on her audience with her comparisons of Roosevelt and Willkie, the man picked by the Republican party to lead our country back to common sense, closing her talk by telling that she who has always voted a mixed ticket, was next November marking but one dross in the Republican column. The hall rang with applause in response to the amusing denunciation which Mrs. Bertha Baur in her clever extemporaneous talk gave concerning "The Squire in the White House." Mrs. Earle Phinney, county chairman of the Volunteer Wom^n Workers for Willkie, served as chairman of the afternoon, speakers. introducing the A musical solo, "O Lovely Night," was sung by Miss Adele Froehlich, and a duet, "Where the River Shannoa Flows," by Earl and Harry Conway. The choir offered "Prayer" from "Hansel and Gretel" and "Finlandia" by Sibef'BB. The audicncc bler.dcu their voices in singing "God Bless America" and departed with the memory of a day never to be forgotten, some brushing a tear from their eyes, after the closing notes of "Auld Lang Ingratitude in the fullest sense of the word was displayed by a white man last Sunday, September 22, who was rescued from the waters of the Fox river by a negro who gave his life in the attempt. The heroic deed «videntally meant little or nothing to the rescued man, because he left the scene of the accident before learning the fate of his rescuer, leaving no name Or address, showing no sign'of appreciation. The deceased was Leo Tabron,,*32 years old. 5726 S. Michigan avenue, Chicago, a mercantile porter, who came to McHenry early Sunday morning with a negro companion to enjoy a day of fishing at the McHenry dam, about three miles south of McHenry in McHenry county. Tabron had left his companion on the east side of the river while he had gone to the west bank in a boat. He was fishing near the dani at about 5 p. m., when the white fisherman in our story slipped off the rock j on which he was standing, into a hole t about twenty feet deep.

Mrs. Caroline Goddard of HarvartJ is beaming with pride over news that she became great-grandmother to two children during the past month. A daughter was born to Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Scofield of LaGrange, August 25. A son, John Charles, was born to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Goddard of Hollywood, Calif., earlier in the month. The Rev. Johannes Lueder, D. D., grandfather of Roland Lueder of Wauconda, passed away Tuesday afternoon, September 17, at the German Deaconess hospital in Chicago, at the ripe old age of 93 years. Well known as the oldest Evangelical Lutheran minister in the United States, the deceased had served an tetive and decidedly worthwhile life. In spite of his advanced age, he was very alert right up to the time of his death. Friday the thirteenth has no terrors for Mrs. Harley Riggs of Whitewater, Wis. Born at thirteen minutes after four o'clock on a sun-shiny Friday afternoon, the thirteenth day of September, she reports that every time her birthday has failen on Friday, it was a bright, sun-shiny, pleasant day. And every time her birthday came on other days of the week, it rained. Mrs. Riggs has had several operations, all successful, on Friday the thirteenth, and is convinced that the old superstition about the unluckiness of that day is just the bunk. Robert C. LaPointe, 21 years old, son of Mr. and Mrs. Leo LaPointe of Barrington, died at the Palatine Community hospital Wednesday of last week of injuries received when the car he was driving in the stock car race Sunday, September 15, was in a collision.

He then sank below the surface and the river was dragged for twenty minutes before the body was recovered. He had removed his hip boots under water, hut was apparently too weakened by the blow to fight the current and struggle to the surface. Efforts to revive him were in vain. When Tabron was pronounced dead the rescued man was nowhere to be found. A verdict of accidental drowning in * thp attempt of saving a life, was returned Monday afternoon, following < an inquest which was conducted in the Jacob Justen A. Son fuoeral parlors.
