The bridesmaids were Miss Ger­ trude Freund, sister of .the bride, and Miss Martha Freund, sister of the groom. Little Rocilla Freund, sister of the bride, carried the bride's bou­ quet of bridal roses and was sweetly dressed in white voile with pink rib­ bon sash. The best men were Frank Frewnd, ci brother to^ the groom, and Niek Miller, a cousin of the bride. - ^ / The bride wore white charmeuse with over skirt of Georgette crepe, trimmed with beaver. The waist w*s trimmed with an ornament of cut steel and a satin bodice. The skirt was made with a train and she wore a veil of white -tulle, reaching full length, made in cap and band effect. The attire was becoming to the tall, handsome bride as she walked down the church aisle carrying a white prayer book, used in assising at mass. The bridesmaids wore a delicate shade of pink messaline with white net overdress and pink ribbon sher- ring for trimming. Their hair orna­ ments were made of pink chiffon with flaring bow!\ at one side. The effect was pretty and attracted much admir- "tion. A reception was tendered them at the home of the bride's parents east of town, to which nearly three hun­ dred guests were invited. ^ The bride is the second oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hubert Freund, who reside east of town, and has always made that locality her home, where she was ever popular with the younger society in the com­ munity, and has many warm friends.

To be sure remarkable things would occur and for this reason the big audiences, who see "Fi-Fi" when it makes its bow to McHenry, public are going to grasp with sheer delight at the fan­ tastic dojngs of the toys and dolls who become liberated from the toy shop and vie with one another in a series of bewildering adventures which carry them to the Milky Way, thru the gar­ dens of Fairy Land and back, a»ain to earth just in time to hurry to,their places in the shop before the fintiwys of the morning sun. Of course, it is all a dream vis­ ualized. A dream which Bonnie, the toy-maker's daughter, expertemws when she is overtaken in a woods near her father's home and thrown into a magic sleep by the Sandman. Bonnie is the keeper of the toys and it is the most natural thing in the world that she should dream of them. And in her dream they come to life- bounding, exhuberant impish life, and begin their revels with all the aban­ don of imprisoned sprites, set free some wicked ogre's spell. The au­ dience is transported into "An ancient' May whose flowers are fragrant yet" and permitted to wander with Bonnie at will in an enchanted land peopled with gingham dogs and gingerbread cats, with tin soldiers and lovely lul­ laby ladies thru the wonderful Milky Way wherethe "dipper" is So handy that one can reach out and drink from it. Then thru the gar­ dens of Fairy Land and b*ck to the toy shop as the Sandman signs his lullaby and the pale rays of dawn creep over the purple hills.

Several shows ofthi^ l "Vv, nature have been given at Lake Gen-' ~ era in the past and they never fail to draw many paapls, whu go to see the productions of the gardeners' skill. -/Ingil t W'iS Ivi •i '.Vs The Girl of the Golden West is tft orphan who keeps the saloon in the California mining town of Cloudy dur­ ing the days of the '49 gold rush. Her utter honesty and fearlessness com­ mand the -respect of all the "boys." Of her many suitors, the one she is most disposed to favor is Jack Ranee, the sheriff-gambler from' New Or­ leans, who is somewhat less rough than the rest of the men. At the time when the story begins the community is at a high pitch of excitement concerning the exploits of a city-bred road-agent, whose real name is Johnson^ but who is known as Ramerrez, and leads a particularly desperate band of Mexicans. In •spite of the fact that $5,000 has been offered for his capture, Ramerrez holds up the Wells-Fargo stage, rob­ bing all the passengers. While do­ ing: this he receives a slight wound on the wrist, and when his band dis­ perses with the booty Ramerrez re­ mains behind to bathe the injury. The "Girl" chances to ride by, is in­ terested by her very first glimpse of the fascinating stranger, comes to his aid and binds up the wound with part of her bonnet string. This is the beginning of the ro­ mance between ^Jhe " "Girl" and the road-afent, whor^she knows only as "Mr. Johnson." Not knowing that the "Girl" is the proprietor of the Polka saloon in Cloudy, but having heard that the ^miners leave their gold in the care of the woman who runs that place, Ramerrez plans to rob the establishments He goes to the saloon himself in advance, and there meets Ranee, the sheriff-gam­ bler, whose jealousy at once becomes apparent and who is prevented from making trouble for the stranger then and there only because the "Girl" vouches for him. From this point ^exciting events fol­ low in rapid succession. While Ranee is following a blind trail for the road- agent, Ramerreg has an early morn­ ing breakfast with 'the "Girl" at her cabin. In attempting, to leave he is seriously wounded by Ranee and ap­ prehended, though the "Girl" seeks to conceal him in the' loft. His pres­ ence is revealed by the dropping of his blood thru the cracks of the loft. Ranee and the "Girl" play cards for the life of Ramerrez and the "Girl" wins by the ruse of changing her los­ ing cards at the la&t moment. After recovering from his wounds, Ramerrez is pursued and caught a second (kne. The "Girl" comes to his rescue at the moment when he is about to be hung for his crimes against the law, and the drama con­ cludes with the "Girl" and Ramer­ rez leaving the mountains »to begin a new life. Banquet After Midnight The Bell Telephone company gave its employes at the McHenry tele­ phone exchange a treat after 12:00 o'clock on Tuesday night. The girls were invited to partake of a chicken dinner prepared by Mrs. John Niesen and served at ~ her establishment. Needless to say the girls enjoyed the event and have nothing but words of praise for the delectable spread and their kind hostess. Boxes of sweets were also received by the girls from the many subscribers* to whom they are always most cour­ teous and obliging. They feel very grateful to the company and its many patrons and will have po dread of election returns hereafter.

Jr. kr' Cemetery Cfln. Western States to Decide the Win­ ner--Walter J. Walsh Loses Sen­ atorial Fight Up to the tirao of going to press the result of the presidential election is still a doubt. Six states, Califor­ nia, Minnesota, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon and West Virginia, with a total of forty-six electoral votes, hold the key and it remains with these states to say who is to be at. the head of our government during the next four years. This morning it looks very much like Wilson, altho the returns from the above named states may give Hughes the honor of the highest office at the hands of the citizens of the United States. Locally, both in the McHenry and Ringwood precincts, less interest was shown in the election of Tuesday than was manifesed last spring, when the wet and dry question was settled at the annual town election At that time a total of 1406 votes were cast in the township, while only 970 votes ^ere registered on Tuesday of thii week. Contrary to expectations, the Re­ publicans again carried this township, they leading in both voting precincts. Up to the day of election everything pointed- to a Democratic majority here". Illinois gave the Republican party a plurality of about 185,000, according to the very latest information, Hughes' margin ever Wilson being placed at that figure, while Col. Low- den's lead over his opponent, Gover­ nor Dunne, seems to be close to the 150,000 mark. The County Ticket As was expected, the straight. Re­ publican ticket was elected about three to one in McHenry county. The winners are as follows: Theo. Ham- er, circuit clerk; V, S. Lumley, state's attorney; G. L. Tryon, county sur* veyor; Charles C. Peck, coroner. With the exception of the state's at­ torney all of the county officers suc­ ceed themselves. Mr. Lumley will succeed David R. Joslyn. Splendid Endorsement For Walsh McHenry county gave Walter J. Walsh, Democratic candidate for the office of state senator, a splendid en­ dorsement at the polls,* he carrying his home town about three to one against his opponent, Rodney B. Swift. This goes to show what his own people think of him and we feel safe in stating that the race for this important office has made Mr. Walsh one of the strong men of this, the eighth district. While figures could not be obtained at the county seat this morning, word from Woodstock is to the effect that Swift carried the dis­ trict, which comprises the counties of McHenry, Boone and Lake, about two to one. The McHenry man fought a clean and honorable campaign and, in face of tremendous odds, he fought his battle bravely and most vigor­ ously, only to be defeated by a man who had the backing of a Republican district and an extensive acquaintance thruout the three counties. Others Also Put Up Fight Jacob R. Justen, the home candidate for the office of circuit clerk, as well as Dr. Hepburn, the Ringwood phys­ ician, the Democratic candidate for county coroner/ also waged hard bat­ tles, but, like Mr. Walsh, the odds were too great. I. C. Copley Re-elected Hon. I. C. Copley, our present con­ gressman, was re-elected by a large majority. As usual McHenry gave him A splendid vote.
