The Fridav schedule is Field, and a much larger group will be present during the marathon races, where a larger number of foot difficulties are expected during this event. Just standing on the sidewalk in the heat of this past week was enough to make most of us seek out help for those "beat feet." K. A. F. Thursday/August 27, DEATH CLAIMS " BARBARA KRAUSE.

Twice Told Tales FIFTY YEARS AGO Taken From the Files of Aug. 19, 1909 During the heavy rain of last Sunday morning, the mill dam went out and for a time it was feared that the ravaging water would destroy the new cement bridge in Centerville. The water this time broke out at the raceway, and although the entire force at the Borden factory was pressed into service all day Sunday, the water was not to be checked and the pond today is almost dry. The Willing Workers' society, of the Universalist church tendered Mrs. H. M. McOmber a flower shower at her home in this village last Saturday afternoon, $.ug. 14, the occasion being her eightieth birthday. "Auld Lang Lyne" was the appropriate melody rendered by Mrs. J. W. Smith on the cornet, as the guests arrived. Four generations of the family sat down to the sumptuous repast served by the ladies. The pickle season is again here and at the local factory the cucumbers are coming in at the rate of 103 bushels per day. Altogether, about 1,200 bushels have been delivered at the local plant. The Chicago Pleasure club has engaged Bonslett's pavilion at Lily Lake, and will hold a moonlight dance therein on Sept. 4. Moonlight dancing is something new in this vicinity. The hall for this occasion will be illuminated by a huge redmoon. Mrs. M. A. Howell met with an accident at the corner of Green and Elm street Friday afternoon, when a young man from Pistakee Bay drove so close to her top buggy that the wheels of the two buggies interlocked, resulting in the upsetting of the buggy occupied by Mrs. Howell. The crash frightened the horse, who ran about a block with the unfortunate woman pinned beneath the carriage.

Elm St. FORTY YEARS AGO Taken from the Files of Aug. 14, 1919 Sunday morning there was quite a little excitement created along the river by the appearance in a canoe of an Indian chief and his squaw, with a fair captive. The costumes were so near perfection that they were taken by the residents as the real red men, but proved to be Mrs. John Wise tand Miss Ella Blackstone of Crown Point, Ind., and the captive butterfly, Miss Marion McOmber of Chicago, at whose parents' summer home the party is spending the week. All of our hotels have been crowded to their fullest capacity during the past two weeks. Never before in the history of the village, as a summer resort, have we experienced such a season. John P. Weber and his gang of workmen razed the old Busy Bee cafe building on Main street this weekend, and we are informed the lumber is to be used- in; the construction of a new home to be erected for Matt B. Laures on one of the John Knox lots on Center street. "Buff" Feltz of this village handed the editor a relic of the „old time dances held at the Riverside which will be interesting to old time residents. It was a masquerade* dance program found between the walls of a building that is being razed on the Bert Munshaw place between Crystal Lake and Cary. The dance was held on Feb" 8, 1878, and included on the program were quadrilles, watzes, schottisches, galops, polkas, the Crooked S, Fireman's dance, Monie Musk and Opera Reel. Mayor William Hale Thompson and Fred Lundin of Chicago visited the Hunter boat factory last Sunday and ordered a 40 ft. mahogany runabout of novel design. The boat is to be used on Fox river and the Chain of Lakes in this region. Two more of our young men, Henry Quinn and Peter Olson, have arrived in the east from overseas and are expected home in the near future,. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO Taken From the Files of Aug. 16, 1934 The two thousand acres of lotus blossoms which convert Grass Lake into a veritable flower garden are the most beautiful knd abundant since they were almost killed out by high water eight years ago. They are being viewed by thousands of people who come from all parts of the country. Mrs. Sarah Sherburne, pioneer and McHenry's oldes(t, resident, will observe her 102nd birthday anniversary on Aug. 17 at the home of her daughter, MPIS. Clayton Harrison, of Ringwood. Her oldest friend, Mrs. Samantha Button, also an early pioneer, passed away recently in her 103rd year. Miss Nellie McDonald, 29 .years old, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John McDonald of Richmond and niece of Mrs. Mayme Harrison of McHenry, passed away at her home last Monday. Miss Dorothy Knox and Carl Weber, whose, marriage will take place next month, were honored at a gathering at the summer home of Mr. and Mrs. Ray McCarthy at McCuIlom Lake Friday evening, with fifty guests present.
