Crystal L#'s new wood working factory la now in operation with enough orders on hand for six weeks' work. The opening is indeed very auspicious. The grammar school at Wauconda has outgrown its usefulness and a new structure must be built soon. Agitation along this line is now ripe in that village. A combined Ford and dollar day will be .sponsored by the business men of Antioch next Saturday, April 29. Over $500 in prizes will be given away on that day. Sheriff Roy Stewart of Woodstock and Attorney Charles Allen of Gary left last week for Rochester, Minn., where they are now undergoing treatment at the Mayo Brothers' hospital. A Ford sedan, owned by Frank S. Woltor, was stolen in broad daylight at Elgin last Thursday. The Algonquin man had parked the machine in Grove avenue, Elgin's busiest thorofare. The Inderrieden Canning company has 1,000 acres of peas and between neven and eight hundred acres of corn under cultivation at Hampshire, where they operate a large canning factory. Glen Crest Country club at Wood stock, reorganized at the county seat during the past winter, now boasts of a membership of 160. Fees for new members are now $100, whilte the annual dues are $25.

Saturday Will be an extra day for the' fair this year. Another one of those "foolish" chain letter ideas has been sprung on the public. Instead of a prayer, this time it is a "good luck" letter ' which is being circulated. The letter is now in circulation in a number of nearby cities and. towns. 1 ^Nippersink Lodge, a new summer t#ort now under construction near Genoa Junction, Wis., will be ready foi* opening on or about June 1. A spacious dub, room is already completed, while about twenty of the Cottages are now under roof. ~%illiam Weldon of Woodstock is ... reorganizing his hand with the intention of giving that city a series of hand concerts the Coming summer. The money to defray the expense of the proposed concerts is to be raised » :<ye|a the popular subscription route." I^At last Crystal Lake is to be given '* Sunday movies. The question as to • whether or not that city would have S&xnday shows was voted at last peek's election, with the result that -fee Sunday movie issue"won out by a majority of 441 votes. Two years ago, when the same issue came up for vote, the Sunday shows lost out by ^ single vote. Time brings changes. Among the nearby towns to wage a fistic fans here as well as the surrounding towns are anxiously awaiting the next big athletic show under the auspices of the McHenry post, American Legion, which is billed to take place at their hall in this village next Thursday evening. May 4. The committee in , charge of the bookings for the coming show declare that the best array of talent securable has been obtained and the fans "can scarcely await the sounding of the gong that will bring the first two men together. The evening's first attraction will be a four-round bout between Kid Ruddy of Chicago and "Pat" Mead of McHenry, both of whom are in the bantam weight class. Altho new to most of the fans, Mead is, by no means, a beginner in the boxing game, while Kid Ruddy comes very highly recommended. The second fight will be a six-round go between Young Barbian of McHenry and Young McFarland of West Chicago, lightweights. This is the bout the fans have all been howling for and thru a lot of hard work the management has finally succeeded in bringing the two speed demons together. Johnny Stofl of Genoa Junction and Kid Mclnturf of Kankakee, a pair of featherweights, are scheduled for an eight-round go. As many of the fistic fans in these parts already know, the Genoa Junction lad has "knocked 'em all dead" so far as he has gone. Mclnturf's record is the same way This should be a good attraction. For the grand finale Billy Cepek, Cicero's featherweight champion, will be pitted against Sammy Frager, champion of Great Lakes. This is by far the highest-class attraction ever brought to McHenry by the Legion Cepek is the same fellow who knocked out "Snooky" Stevens of Elgin in four rounds. These two lads are considered top-notchers In their class and will, no doubt, provide the fans with as fast an exhibition as has ever been witnessed in McHenry county This will be the last show of the season, so every fistic fan should avail himself of the opportunity of looking over these youngsters. General admission, $1.50. Ringside seats, $2.00 Tickets are npw on sale at. M. B, Schmitt's billiard hall and .l*ft Kercher's barber shop. la Order That Proposed AdrertMag Campaign Bring Beet Results McHenry Must Provide Amusements Considerable has been said of late in favor of advertising our village and river more extensively as a summer resort. Just how serious these peopleare and to what extent they are willing to contribute towards a fund to finance a Chicago advertising campaign will soon be learned. Before starting the canvass to ascertain thd exact amount which can be raised for such a purpose, would it not be well to look around for additional means of entertaining our guests when they arrive in McHenry ? The spirit of the proposed advertising "stunt" as talked over at recent meetings of the Community club appears to be that of bringing to McHenry and the Fox river large numbers of young people for week end stays. Good idea. But how and where will we entertain them when once here? You will say that Fox river and its natural heauties. together with the few amusements centers which we now possess, should be sufficient to satisfy the cravings of young Chicago. Maybe so, but there are many who will agree with us that this is not sufficient. What is it that is attracting the large week end crowds to Round Lake, Twin Lakes, Lake Geneva and other nearby summer resorts? Isn't it their dance emporiums? We believe so. One of the very first things that young Chicago will ask is "Has McHenry an upto- date and commodious dancing pavilion?" If the answer be in the negative (as it will be unless someone get busy), young Chicago will ignore our invitation to spend the week end with us. On the other hand, if this community is in a position to assure these young people that McHenry has one of the finest and best opon-air pavilions, conveniently located at some point along our river, would it not prove a powerful drawing card? We believe it would. According to our information Round, Lake is drawing hundreds of young people to that village during the summer season just thru her wonderful dancing pavilion, which is conducted along orderly and business-like lines. The same, we are told, is true of Twin Lakes, Powers Lake and Lake Geneva. Now if these points can draw such crowds what is there to hinder McHenry from doing likewise? We believe that it can be and must be done in order to make a Chicago advertising campaign the greatest possible success. , I It's entertainment that these young people desire and fully expect it when leaving their city homes. An advertisement will, no doubt, bring large numbers of these young folks to McHenry, but unless-they are afforded the sort of entertainment for which their hearts crave a second trip to our beautiful river will be utterly out of the question. Tis true that amr river and its natural beauties, together with the excellent boat service which is to be provided our summer guests the coming season, will prove great drawing cards, but when the day is over not all will be satisfied to sit down and fold their hands in their laps, but rather will be looking for additional entertainment. Some, quite natur ally, will want to take in the movies and in this McHenry is already well provided. Others will enjoy a moonlight excursion»along our river and around the lakes; others will be content to enjoy an auto ride thru the beautiful country, but when it comes to satisfying the greatest number of young people a first-class dancing pa vilion, together with the very best of music and possibly an entertainer or two, must be provided. While the advertising campaign is not to be restricted to catering to the young people, it does appear that this class of business is to be pushed harder than ever before. It is the in tention of those who hope to put over the advertising campaign to also fea ture our river as offering/ beautiful sites for permanent summer homes and then, too, to advertise our business men and town in general. If we -desire summer guests in greater numbers than 'have visited McHenry in the past we must, first of all, provide entertainment. Who's going to start the hall a-rolMng in this respect? t&tter village election this year Libertyville comes in for special mention. The issue was whether or not the village should go ahead and pave ^Milwaukee avenue thru that municipality the entire width of the street. The old board members, running una ticket headed "Progressive," |rho favored the paving of the entire idth of the street, won out at the ection over a ticket headed "Taxayers." The members of the taxayers' ticket stood for paving the Street to a width of Only eighteen feet. The progressive ticket won out Natta, f§>y about 100 votes. • Edward C. Waller of'Chicago has "spurchased the Harry Gordon Selfridge If"*" >•"- - property, consisting of forty-eight ^ " - lucres, at Lake Geneva, Wis., and will '.'"ijttart at once to transform the sits * ' fnto a. new sub-division. The price |iaid is reported to be $200,000. The purchaser is planning on selling the ;^Vi$otB at prices ranging from $2,000 to Damages Being Repaired' * The cement posts and lattice work fehce along the Otto Sohm property on the east shore of Fox river here, which were blown down by the terrific wind storm which visited this section on Wednesday of last week, are again under construction. The job should be completed this week. The fence will add very materially to the beauty of the place. The portable house, owned and occupied during the summer season by Mr. and Mrs. Wm. J. H. Schultz of Chicago and which is located on the same side of the river, is also being reconstructed. The cement work at the Sohm place is being done by. the Artificial Stone & Construction Co., while carpenters employed by J. P. Weber are doing the lattice work. Over at the Schultz home Samuel Frazer and his gang of worki&^n are doing the work. Mr. Frazer is also erecting a new cottage along the same shore. In fact, Mr. Frazer informs us that he expects to do considerable summer home building the coming summer. History of McHenry County" A new history of McHenry county, in two volumes and published by the Munsell Publishing company of Chicago, is now being distributed among subscribers. The history, besides containing much of the early history of this county, is brought right up to date with scores of portraits and biographies of prominent present day citizens. The work is by far the best of the kind ever introduced in this county and makes a splendid contribution to any library. McHenry subscribers received their books this week. w Miss Bobb Hostess Miss Harriett Bobb acted as hostess to a number of her young friends at her home on Waukegan street last Friday evening. A few very pleas ant hours were passed at games and dancing, followed by the serving of delicious refreshments.

Freund and • George H. Weber. Rev. Charles Nix, pastor of the church, was the officiating clergyman. The - couple was attended by Miss Elizabeth Freund, sister of the bride, who acted as bridesmaid, and Joseph Weber, a brother of the groom, as^ best man. The bride and her attendant were gowned in navy blue suits, with hats to match and each wore a corsage bouquet of pink awl white sweet peas. " A six p'clock dinner and reception were tendered the eouple at the home of the bride's parents, to which had been invited only immediate relatives of the pair and a few close friends. The home was prettily decorated with pink and white sweet peas. The reception was followed by a wedding dance held at Smith's hall, Johnsburg. The bride of this union is the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Freund, who reside on Pearl street. She has always made her home in and near this village, where she is highly esteemed by a large circle of friends. The groom is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. Hubert Weber, who reside east of the river, just outside the corporate limits. Like the bride, he also has spent the greater part of his life in this immediate vicinity. He is a valued employe of the McHenry Artificial Stone & Construction Co. and is known for his industry and integrity. Mr. and Mrs. Weber expect to go to housekeeping shortly after May 1 in the rooms in the Wm. Pries building on Green street, now occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Lee Kercher. McHenry friends extend congratulations. IS PROMISE MADE US RT GOVERNOR SMALL Mother of Mrs. R. G. Chamberlin Passed Away Here Last Friday Opening Dance at ^Nell's Next Wednesday evening, May 3, will witness the season's opening of Nell's dance pavilion at Columbia park, near the Johnsburg bridge Patrons, on their arrival at their favorite dancing place, will find that the hall has undergone some very noteworthy improvements, including a 32x86 addition, which is to be used as a refreshment hall. In this new addition will be found neatly arranged tables, where those so desiring may sit down and enjoy refreshments as are usually served at places of the kind. Another new feature of Nell's dances will be the inauguration of a taxi service between the hall and Mc Henry. Arrangements have been made with Overton & Laures whereby their taxis will operate between the two points at frequent intervals, not only at the opening dance, but all of the dances to be held at the place during the 1922 season. Henry Nell who has successfully managed this hall during the past few seasons, will this year endeavor to provide the very best of music and for the opening dance announces that he has been successful in securing the North Shore Promenade orchestra of Chicago. Another new feature which is being introduced this year is the 10c dance instead of the regular way of charging admittance. A cordial invitation is extended to everyone to attend. . , The Attar and Rosary Society The Altar and Rosary society met at the K. of C. hall Tuesday afternoon, April 25.

E. church at the Woodman hall on Monday evening of this week and then participated in the regular bi-monthly meeting of that organization. The meeting, as has characterized the activities of the club ever since its organization, was interesting and instructive from beginning to end and once more the members have gone lown on record as being live wires, who are ever ready to stand back of and assist along a worthy cause. Quite naturally, the men came to the meeting with but one thing foremost in their minds, a chicken dinner, and when once this craving had been satisfied all hands were ready for business. Reports from the various committees were quite satisfactory. First of all the membership committee re ported its success in getting a number if new members signed up since the previous meetins, which brings the total well past the seventy mark. The "business methods committee ret ported that they had made very good progress ajong the line of a general sales day in McHenry, which is to be participated in by as many of the business men as are willing to take part. May 17 has been set as the date for the holding of this sale. The publicity committee reported that they will soon be ready to make the rounds qf the business men of the village to ascertain as to whether or not a proposed advertising campaign can be put over in McHenry. It is the aim of the club to advertise Mc Henry as a summer resort thru the Chicago press. The house committee reported that the next meeting of the club would take place at the K. of C hall on Monday evbning, May 8. The next meeting will be in the form of a smoker, together with a light luncheon, and will start at eight Mrs. Frances Ann Densmore, mother of Mrs. R. G.

Entertained Juet Us Club Misses Anna Frisby and Kathryn Burks acted as hostesses to the members of the Just Us club at the home of Mrs. Gertrude L. Miller on Main street on the West Side last Saturday evening. The evening was passed at games, contests and music, followed by refreshments. A very enjoyable time wis #• • Ijk >r^'A v • • ••• o'clock. yy The real intereetlng^^eMrt of the evening came from the mod roads committee, four member's of which had made a trip to Springfield last Friday for the purpose of learning just what could be expected in the way of improving route No. 20. The committee to make the trip to Springfield was made up of Mayor Simon Stoffel, Aldermen John R. Knox and R. I. Overton and W. L. Howell, president of the Community club. Mayor Stoffel, acting as spokesman for the committee, reported that thru the assistance of some good friends whom they had met at Springfield they were given an audience with Gov. Small. The audience with the governor, altho rather short, proved productive, the committee returning to McHenry with the promise that the proposed road would be cemented from Volo to McHenry during the coming summer and that actual work on the improvement would be started very shortly. The executive head of Illinois also gave the committee the promise that he would personally appear in McHenry within the course of the next two weeks, at which time he would go over the entire route to be improved as well as look over the situation here in McHenry. The maymfs message was soundly applauded. The president of the club next in troduced the speaker of the evening, H. W. Sedwick of Crystal Lake, district superintendent of the Public Service cAnpany. Before starting his talk the speaker wanted to have the gathering feel that he considered himself from McHenry as well a^Crystal Lake, as the field under his jurisdiction also took in the village of McHenry as well as the territory adjacent thereto. Mr. Sedwick talked for about three-quarters of an hour on electricity, how it is manufactured, its uses, the territory as served by the company which he represents and their aim in giving the public the best of service at all times. During the course of his talk he also, pointed out the past growth as well as the future prospects of the company. How the electricity is transferred from the generating plant at Waukegan, how it is forwarded to its sub-stations at Barrington and Crystal Lake. The manner in which the current is reduced, the meaning of many of the terms as used in the business and last, but not least, the dangers of electricity when tampered with by the consumer. He explained tile pur- Home From the South Mr. and Mrs. L. P. Bostwich, who have been - spending the winter 'mid the balmy breezes of Florida, arrived here last week for the summer's stay at their beautiful home on Fox river, a short distance south of this village. Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Vogelsang, whose summer home is located at Emerald Park, also on Fox river, arrived here from St. Petersburg, Fla., last Thursday and will again spend the summer season at that point. Robert Green, eldest son of mis. Mary Grtjen of this village, who also spent the winter in the southern state, arrived home last week and has again taken up his position with the Fox River Fisheries. All of the winter sojourners speak in the very highest of terms of Florida as a winter resort, but they also agree that this Fox river district la unsurpassable as a summer resort. Buying Wool Raymond S. Howard of this village, who during the past several winters has been employed as an expert fur buyer by Silverman & Co. of Chicago, now holds a steady position with that concern. Since the close of the fur season Mr. Howard has been engaged in buying wool and, altho able to spend considerable of his time at his home here, is subject to call at any time. In fact, he will be in and out of McHenry during the greater part of the summer season and with the advent of the fur-buying season will be away the greater part of the time. Two years ago he spent the winter in the fur-producing territory of upper Michigan, while last winter H* his activities up in Wisconsin.
