This is a gripping and entertaining drama of intense human interest. It deals with that age-old problem, the eternal triangle, in the persons of two young men and a girl. The story is by Frank Tuttle and was directed under his personal supervision and is laid in the quaint New England town of Spell's River. Herbert Bradley, the pride of Spell's River, comes home from college, where he has been sent at the expense of his parents and his younger brother, Jim, who works in the garage. Herbert lords it over Jim and the folks and with the aid of a tight-fitting suit and many social graces and accomplishments proceeds to discredit Jim with the girt he loves and win her for himself. Jim's sense of inferiority causes him to slip into the background and apparently Herbert has things his own ITEMS Of INTEREST AS PICKED UP BY PLAJN&EMtt REPORTERS DURING WE&F WHAT PEOPLE ARE DOING THIS VILLAGE AND ATE VICINITY IN of late, but thus far we have not heard of anyone who has consented to make the race.

Ross of Grass Valley, Calif., for a copy of the progressive California number of the San Francisco Chronicle as published on March 14. The edition consists of 214 pages and is a journalistic masterpiece. It covers the entire San Frandsco vattey most interestingly in a descriptive as well as illustrative manner. thirteen miles of road were built in McHenry county, being a part of Grant highway from Elgin thru Marengo to Belvidere and Rockford. During the past winter the contracts for a large share of route No. 20 from Volo to Woodstock have been let, all except the part thru McHenry. This part has been delayed because of the unsettled conditions at McHenry. where the local people have been unable to agree on the route they, wish adopted. This matter is now being ironed out and it seems probable that everything will be settled so that the contracts for Urn McHenry village part will be let soon. Work on the Woodstock to McHenry route is about to begin with the opening of spring. Already six carloads of cement have arrived and some: machinery has been unloaded. This contract has been let to Charles E. Giertz & Son of Elgin, which firm has done thousands of dollars worth of work with much credit at Woodstock. Woodstock people will be pleased to learn that Mr. Giertz has secured the services of Robert J. Beatty, who has been looking ,after matters here for Mr. Giertz during the last few days. Governor Small's road program has been one of steady progress and McHenry county residents cannot help but appreciate, if they wili give the matter fair consideration, that instead of delay this county has been favored. With the building of the thirteen miles of Grant highway almost half a million dollars of road funds was spent in this county. The Woodstock thro McHenry to Volo section will require still more, while route No. 19 Will cost about a million dollars. Then will come route 23 from Harvard thru Marengo to Sycamore, which will cost another million. Thus it will be seen that three million dollars will be spent for hard roads in McHenry county with the completion of the present program. In spite of the political persecution which the governor has been compelled to contend with all thru his term of office, which has been epough to force an ordinary man into seclu sidn, Governor Small has pushed steadily forward with his program of road building, which eventually will change Illinois from the worst to the best state for roads. The governor now wanta the present program of 4,800 miles of road ex tended to 8,000 miles, all to be bnilt with automobile license money. This program, if adopted, will probably mean a road north from Crystal Lake thru McHenry and Richmond, probably an east and west road from Antioch thru Richmond, Hebron, Alden and Harvard toward Beloit; perhaps a road from Hebron south thru Greenwood to meet route 22, perhaps a road from Woodstock to Marengo and another from Woodstock thru Huntley toward Elgin. These are the routes which in part at least can he taetoded in the club, together with their wives or lady friends, will be accorded a real treat on that occasion. More particulars next week. *" McHENRY COUNTY PICNIC > AT LOS ANGELES Among tike former McHenry residents who attended the McHenry county picnic as held at Los Angeles, Calif., recently are as follows: Mr. and Mrs. John I. Story, 173 West 166th St., Los Angeles; Mary I. Colby and Anna M. Sharp, 1397 Mellin Ave^ Los Angeles; Murray J. Tjrrell, 415 W. Fourth St., Long Beach; Miss Cad Owen, 179 N. Madison St., Pasadena] The picnic was attended by about 170 former McHenry county residents and the cities and towns represented besides McHenry were Woodstock, Crystal Lake, Harvard, Cary, Hebron and Marengo. ATTY. ALLEN TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY CLUB Atty. Chas. Allen of Cary, who is well and favorably known here, will address the members of the McHenry Community club at their next regular meeting to be held in the form of a smoker at the K. of C. hall next Tuesday evening, April 3. Mr. Allen is a good talker and will, no doubt, have a most interesting message to deliver. AM members of the club are wgaafrly requested to attend. Q&QXraitA MUSIC AT ST. MARY'S EASTER Orchestra music will add to the festivitiea at St. Mary's church here next j sermen Sunday morning. Special music, with orchestra accompaniment, has been rehearsed for some time and worshippers who attend the 10:15 o'clock mass are promised something out of the ordinary. BUYS HOME AT WOODSTOCK Gus Carlson, who twenty-five years ago conducted a harness shop in this village, and who is operating a like establishment at Woodstock, has purchased the Mrs. Howard Billings bongalow on Douglas avenue in that city and has been given immediate possession. Mr. Carlson will be favorably remembered by many of our readers, who will be pleased to learn of his latest transaction. made into a city. At the time the petition was presented, we are told it was immediately tabled and nothing has been done since. According to legal advice, as given the village clerk, the question cannot and will not appear on the ballot, probably much to the disappointment of those who signed said petition, and who would have been pleased to have the matter brought up to a vote. This means that it will be at least another year before such a question may be voted on. School Election Also Quiet Like the village election, very little is being heard on the streets regarding the coming school elections, which will take place on April 14. The terms of two members on the community high school board will expire this spring, while the terms of the president and two lumbers of the grade school board also come to an end at that time. While little isJbeing aaid concerning the coming elections, the public naturally expects a fight Candidates for these offices must have their petitions filed at least ten days prior to said election, which means no later than next Wednesday, April 4. FIRST METHODIST CHURCH The message of Easter is at the very heart of the Christian work and this is why Easter becomes for all Christians the outstanding day in the Christian calendar. The morning services, which will be appropriate to the Easter season, will occur at the usual times, Sunday school at ten and morning worship at eleven. At the latter topic will be "Easter Thoughts" and special music will be a feature. In addition a very impressive service has been arranged for the evening at 7:30, when the choir will render a musical program, followed by a short Easter play, entitled "The Triumph of Love." A real welcome awaits all who attend. success in motion pictures and who is now starring on-Broadway in "Merton of the Movies." Mary Astor plays the role of the dainty and lovable Polly Crawford.

The booklet takes in ail of the Ozarks and in glancing over its pages one is immediately impressed with its rare beauties and the comforts and pleasures it must possess. Evidently the people] of that locality have taken on the western spirit in boosting for their home community and we will venture a guess that the Osarks will derive rich benefits as the result of this booster pamphlet. BAND CONCERT POST-~ PON EI) INDEFINITELY m 'it'" A .-.i On account of the bad condition of the roads, which made it impossible for out-of-town members of the McHenry band to get in for rehearsals, the concert which was to have taken place on April 11, has been indefinitely postponed. This news, no doubt, will be received with a feeling of regret by music lovers of this community, who had looked forward to another real musical treat. The band mm are in hopes that conditions will so shape themselves that it will be possible to put on the concert within the course of the next month or two.
