June 2, at the Central opera ,• fcouse, there are solo parts to be given four artists from Chicago. The XjHtenor °f the group will be Mr. Par- sll Egan, about whom the Music Jews of Chicago has the following ,«D say: - "Those passing Cohans Grand •pera house. ©n Sunday afternoon might well have asked if. some inter­ national celebrity, like John Mc Cormick, was to appear there, so reat was the 'throng. That portion the house used for concert pttr® vjposes was filled to about the last seat \ 4tnd the enthusiasm evoked was of lomewhat the same order as the itfbove mentioned J dm is apt to bring • pass.., _ "But if it wasn't the noted tenor, •> ft was a tenor of many of the fine </v"farts which makes the former vorite.

Egan did them all in notable ftyje and with prevailing charm and thought for mood and content. His very best endeavor was in the serious iHandel 'Where'er You Walk,' which had a graceful lyric legato, lovely tonal quality, force and warmtli of | feeling. He supplemented this with" ^HcGiii's *Duna,' done with such direct tasteful simplicity as to approach fr,.. ' ^ * Ideality. His reception was most £»' Jiospitable, and encores followed each * W' ' _ J ' *•"$* fL- ' Field Meet Saturday . ,.. *Tb» annual field- meet, in which ||r students of the various schools of tht county compete for honors, will take jplace at the fair grounds at Wood­ stock next Saturday afternoon. A jnumber of our high school boys ate centered in the various events and they feel confident of making a good showing- . Our boys won the honors ,of the meet last year and, while; they ifT ; are not-saying just what they expect •fg'^to accomplish this year, those in a. l' c • ^position to know predict that they , j\ "will be well up to the front when the Iday's scores are summed up. ' • Wffl^mttch pleasure thltt I lntfq^ure Mr. *A. J. Gafke of Brain- ard, Minnesota, to the farmers and every , allied ' interest or organized activity of. McHenry county as their county agent or county adviser. The executive committee, whose duty it w^s to fill thc vaoancy, has earefully gone over, his .qualifications as to ex­ perience and • training.. The work is not'new to-him. He left county work in Minnesota yes'terday to take it up here today. His work has been very successful there and you have no rea­ son to, think it would be different here and if you will only give him the warm hand and kindly consideration that you have given me, I can see no reason why the fiscal year of his work should riot only be. pleasant to him, but profitable to every activity in the county. If he proves to be the right man he should have the unlimited co-oper­ ation of every farmer in the county. If he stands for anything he stands for the better things in agriculture. He is a public service man of the bet­ ter ty^e. His office should be a clearing house for the better condi­ tions of the rural and urban home; should be so closely connected with the counrty school as well as the pub­ lic school that he would be one of the constructive builders of the educa­ tional institution of the county. Do not expect too much of this man you are to get acquainted with. He is human the same as you are. He will not be an encyclopedia where you' can go and - always get direct answers to your interrogations, but he should at the last analysis connect you with the information that you need and at last localize the solution of your problems. I want to emphasize the most im­ portant part of his wprk. As I look at 'it, it is to kindle a flame in the heart, of the average farmer for a more interesting agriculture. The average farmer will never measure up any farther than he resolves to do. His viewpoints will change as his in­ spirations change. It may not be' technical knowledge or research work that the average farmer needs. „ In fact, I think ninety percent of the ex­ pert work that will' do him the most good is a training that comes along with' good fellowship, observation and co-operation. That makes him feel that he is one of the princes of the earth, that every other farmer is his friend. That there is a common in­ terest among all interested in the in­ dustrial world and that, the farmer is recognized as the exponent of and should be the recipient of their share of the product of their toil. In closing my introduction of Mr. Gafke to the peoplt* of McHenry countyi I want to urge that you not only' as farmers . interested directly, but that every civic, commercial, pro­ fessional . or educational institution extend to him a cordial reception as a public servant, but make him feel that he is a friend among friends. The office of the Soil Improvement association is not only his, but yours for. a. better agriculture. The tele­ phone equipment is just the same only the man and that should mean better service. Let us do all we can to join with him to establish higher standards for the farm community and the generations to follow, which means so much, for permanent in­ struction And a ^remanent agricul­ ture.

In this case, and on this record, our uttorney was only entitled to receive a state's attorney's fees of $15.00 and it clearly was his duty to have taxed as costs in qaid case, along with the clerk's and sheriff's fees, the sum of $15.00 as a state's attorney'.'- fee, but for some reason no such charge was entered. If the defendant refused to pay the fine and costs, it was the sworn duty of out: state's attorney to collect the same from the defendant, includ­ ing state's attorney's fee of $15.00, if the collection could be enforced by due process of law. On January 17, 1911, (the same day the defendant plead guilty), our cir­ cuit court entered an order, stating the fine and costs in said case w^re satisfied, which means that it was made to appear to the court that the fine and eosts had been paid by. the defendant. The clerk's record shows the clerk's fees are paid, and it was tfie duty of the state's attoreny to see that all costs were paid, before the same were satisfied by the court. Later, when our state's attorney made a report to our county court, he deliberately charged up an illegal state's attorney's fee for this case of $150.00, and without the shadow of an excuse, deducted that sum from our county school fuyd and still re­ tains the same. Why did our state's attorney make an illegal charge of $150.00 for his fee in said case and deduct that sum from our county school funds when the court record shows the payment of said fine and costs? I will leaye this question to be answered by out state's attorney, and when he has explained the same I will then call his attention to a large number* of other cases where he has FOR RENT--The rooms formerly oc­ cupied by the West McHenry State hank.
