Casey is mov- his offices this week from the Jlann building on Cass street to the new quarters above the store of the 3, P. Alt Clothing company. He ex­ pects to be settled by the end of the Week. Mr. Casey is one of the oldest members of the McHenry County Bar association and for the past sev- «B I years has made his headquarters la the Mann building. With an ever increasing practice and the apparent need of a new and more centrally lo- 1t * cated office he feels that his -present Jjf "* *A\ move is a very wise one. ft? *,/ s ' Attorney Casey's ability as a lavv- ? '%J' yer is too well known to call for com-: k.'. 1 Jaent. He always acquits himself with credit in the trying of any case. .. i< The many friends of Attorney "Casey in Woodstock and vicinity trust that his new move will mean a larger practice and continued service at the McHenry county bar for many years to come. Cool Shortage at Terra Cotta Crystal, Lake Herald: For sev­ eral wefeks past the coal famine, said te be due to the shortage of freight cars, has hampered considerably the operation of the factories in this sec­ tion. Tuesday the Terra Cotta plant had just about used the last shovel­ ful of boiler coal about the place fhtn another car came in about four o'clock and saved the day. The plant has also suffered from lack of kiln coal and has been unable to start fir­ ing a new kiln for more than three •fly yn When it is understood that thy Terra Cotta factory uses about imo cars of boiler coal a week it can . be readily understood what the Shortage means to the plant. Quite recently the Oliver factory at Wood­ stock went to the expense of run­ ning a special train from Barrington With two cars of coal in order to ': tsjeep the plant going, and on another occasion borrowed Coal for a half day from the city bins in order to keep • _____ Woodmen Pay Claim Crystal Lake Herald: At this month's session of the board of di­ rectors of the Modern Woodmen of America proofs of the claim of the : r|eath of Neighbor Charles L. Buck ' ^ere passed on and the claim was allowed in full. The proofs show Hie following regarding the claim: fhat at the time of his death Mr. -- pock had reached the age of 69 vjrears, 10 months and 16 days. His duration of membership in the Wood- ,'iy' < men covered a period of twenty-four >years, two months and twenty-nine ; ^ days. The amount of the benefit ^ certificate, which will be paid to the beneficiaries of Mr. Buck, amounts to $2,000, to carry which Mr. Buck laid into the benefit fund of the Woodmen only $433, $1,567 less than -•4he amount on his policy, and mak­ ing an average cost for carrying the insurance of a little less than 5 cents per day. » _____ Good Road for Lake County - Lake county's 1917 slogan Will be $1,000,000 for good roads. Steps have already been taken to submit f proposition of voting $1*00,000 in bonds for good roads to the people of that county. This amount will build 200 miles of brick or cement road. Under the present state aid plan it will take fifty years to estab­ lish good roads thruout Lake county, while under the bond issue plan the big job can be completed within four years time. According to those who ^ave interested themselves in the plan the new plan would cost 6.4 cents per acre in rural districts Slid • 26 cents per $100 valuation in cities and towns. Dedicates New Township High School Wauconda's beautiful new town­ ship high school building was dedi­ cated with appropriate ceremonies last Wednesday evening. The event was largely attended. The new build­ ing occupies a frontage of 95 feet and 8 inches, width 79 feet and 8 inches and is 34 feet high. There are four­ teen room on the . first floor, which has a large auditorium, stage, gym­ nasium, domestic science and agri­ culture rooms. The second floor comprises fifteen rooms, consisting of study hall, laboratory, principal's office and recitation rooms. The building is a beauty in model. Who Got the $3.50 * A barrel of apples for which the growers receives $1.00 costs the con­ sumer $4 .50. This fact was brought to light at Elgin one day last week, when a resident of that city unpacked a barrel of apples purchased from one <of the local stores. At the bottom of the barrel the purchaser found a post card asking that the same be mailed to the addressee, a Michigan fruit grower, telling what the retail price of the apples had been. "We got $1.00 for them," said the card. The 'price paid by the purchaser was $4 .50. The grower evidently intends to ftnd out who got the $3.50.

THE UNIVERSAL CAR Three strong reasons urge you to buy the Ford car. First, oecause \>f its record of satisfactory service to mora than fifteen hundred thousand owners; second, becauseof the reliability of the company which makes it; third, because of its large radiator and enclosed fan, streamlined hood, crown fenders front ^nd rear, black finish, nickel trimmings, it is most attractive in appearance. To these must be added its, wonderful economy in operation and mainten­ ance--about two cents a mile; likewise the fact that by reason of Jts simplicity in construction anyone can operate and care for it. -Nine thousand Ford agents make Ford service as universal as the car.

"Out of the Drifts" is a tale of the eternal snows, of avalanches, diz­ zy heights and yawning chasms, ranging from the pastoral beauties of Alpine shepherd life to the grim fight for mere existence against the smashing, hurricane-driven shows. But the battle against the elements is not the only one in which the di­ minutive star is pitted against a powerful adversary. She is a sim­ ple unsophisticated little shepherd­ ess whose very innocence and beauty arouse in a dissolute visitor at the village, which is her home, the low­ est impulses of his nature. But the very innocence which led her into the trap proves her salvation, for it in turn awakens a sense of shame and repentace in the man, who turns over a new leaf and thoroly changes his mode of life. In this stirring tale Miss Clark has an opportunity to do a different sort of acting from anything she has done before, but the same irresistable charm is there and the unforgettable Clark personality invests the little mountain lass with the appealing loveliness that holds one fascinated to the very end of the story. She is a sweet little mountain shepherdess whose charm and beauty appeal to a young rogue who is so­ journing in the Apis. Realizing her unsophistieation, he persuades her to accompany him to London, where he tells her they are to be married, but Rudolph, a guide, who is in love with Elise, scents danger and lures Reggie iq|o a death trap. As the man dangles helplessly over. a preci­ pice, Rudolph cuts the rope which is his only means of safety and sends his enemy to the bottom of the chasm. But a huge snow drift saves Reggie's life, and Rudolph is once more called upon to save Elise Mrs. Sam Naeher and, daughter, from him when they art shot into P H I L I P J A E G E R GENERAL COflMISSION MERCHANT SPECIAL ATTENTION GIVEN TO THE SAL?
