NEW SUB-DIVISION Nicholas Scltaefar Farm at Pistakee Lake to Be Greatly Improved A few weeks ago we mentioned ip the columns -of The Plaindealer that the Nicholas Schaefer farm near Pistakee Uk« had bean soia to Chicago interests. v ^ This week the news has 4>een officially confirmed thru a letter written this paper by Harry E. Hoff, one of the purchasers, a man who has been spending his summers at Pistakee for many years. The sale of the farm, which consists of seventy-three acres and borders on what is known as Meyer's bay, was made to J. Scott Matthews and Harry E. Hoff. The work of surveying the tract and laying same out into a beautiful sub-division is now and has been under way for two weeks or more. The new sub-division is to be high class in every respect. There are to be no fences, garages or out-houses. A space will be set aside for a community garage as well as a community laundry. There will also be an inland lake leading to Meyer's bay. The starting of work on this big proposition will mean the ^employment of good mechanics as wisll as a small army of laborers and, according to Mr. Hoff's letter, it is their hope that McHenry and vicinity will be able to supply all of these workers. The tract is 761 feet above the sea level and henceforth will be known and referred to as "Pistakee Heights." AN ORDINANCE PROVIDING FOR THE PURCHASE OF AN ELECTRICAL DRIVEN CENTRIFUGAL PUMP Be it ordained by the President and Board of Trustees of the 1 Village of McHenry, County of* McHenry and State of Illinois: Section 1. Tliat there be purchased for the said Village of McHenry one centrifugal pump with motor direct connected to same; one concrete foundation for mounting this equipment; electric wiring complete for operation of motor; necessary piping for connection of pump according to the specifications and plans made by the Public Service Company of Northern Illinois and which are now on file with the Village Clerk of said Village of McHenry. Section 2. That bids for the construction of said pump be advertised for in the McHenry Plaindealer, reserving to said Village the right of rejecting any and all bids submitted. Section 3. That this ordinance be and the same is in full force and effect from and after its passage and approval. Louis A. Erickson, President pro tem of the Board of Trustees of the Village of McHenry, Illinois. Attest: Wm. G. Schreinert_. Village Passed Jul 9, 1922. . , - Approved Jan 9, 1922. Published Jan. 12, 1922. The Plaindealer for news. Harv--fcif. JBeveu Inch Ice Very has been made by our ic* harvesters during the past week. Math. Bauer has completed the filling of his own as well as the brewery ice house, while it is expected that the house owned by C. Unti, local ice cream manufacturer, will be filled by this evening. Over on the Borden field the work is also progressing very favorably and there also hopes are being entertained that the big houses will be tilled to the roof by this (Thursday) evening. The ice harvested during the last few days averaged about eleven inches in thickness on the east end of the pond, while on the Borden field, located in the west end of that body of water, there was a great variation, some of the cakes being only about five inches in thickness, while others ran over eleven inches. Whether or not Borden's will ship this year depends altogether on the weather. From present indications it looks as if there might be a second crop of ice this year and in that event considerable ice is sure to be shipped. Directors' Meeting A meeting of the director of the Fox River>& Lakes Improvement association took place in Chicago on Tuesday evening of this week, at which time all committees were supposed to turn in a report covering their activities during the year 1921, while the secretary's report was also to be submitted for approval.

Attended Woodstock Installation Commander John L. May, Atty. A. H. Pouse and E. R. McGee, represented the McHenry post, American Legion, at the installation of officers of the county seat post at Woodstock on Monday evening of this week. The installation was followed by a banquet served at the Splendid restaurant. our understanding is that the men back of the new enterprise are very anxiou9 to get the building under way so that they may start business early in the spring. We believe that McHenry and the adjacent territory will support a first-class laundry and the men who are backing the venture evidently also think so. Here's lode to the new-comers.

One of the legs from the knee to the ankle is j quite well preserved, it being partially j petrified, leaving the skin on the shin bone nearly perfect. The most won- | derful part of it is that several of the , teeth contain gold and copper fillings. ;The man died from a huge copper spear point that was driven com- Ipletely thru the skull between the eyes and coming out at the back of •the head, the spear remaining in the skull. Also in the find was a copper urn containing coins of gold and some small copper coins, in all seventeen pounds.
