The Chamber of Commerce of Lake Geneva are making plans for the renting of a hall and the calling of a joint meeting of the Walworth county farmers and their visiting brothers from .the south in the hope that such a gathering will result in much good. - . -v CARD OF THANKS V " I We take this public manner of expressing our heartfelt thanks to the many kind neighbors and friends who in any way assisted us during the sad hours of our recent bereavement.

The American Seating company of Chicago was awarded the contract for the seats for the auditorium, 408 in number, a trifle less than the seating capacity. However, it is the plan of the board to add additional seats as they are needed. The seating capacity of the auditorium as near as can be figured is 430. Hey wood, Wakefield A Co., also of Chicago will supply the commercial and study hall desks, while the contract for supplying the laboratory furniture went to E. H. Sheldon & Co. of Muskegon, Mich. It will be some weeks before the building vtill have reached a stage whereby the equipment may be installed.

YOU MUST NOT MISS THIS ' | When Hugh Pendexter, who for -Tj»; seventeen years had been writing the ...# country's most original and entertaining short stories, decided about eight years &goJa devote his talents to American novels with correct his- ? torian back grounds, he entered upon a work that was to prove of vast in- i n terest and value to readers. His ^ "Kings of the Missouri" and "A Virginia Scout" struck a new and decid- ;f edly pleasing note in fiction, dealing with the roirfantic, the stirring and the real in American adventurous episodes. Now he has come to the front i with the first really big story that ; preserves the facts and at the sgme \,- time brings out the romance in that series of incidents connected with the^ ' gold rush, the settling of the Black '4 Hills and the accompanying Indian wars. The human characters, white and red, and all the remarkable events of treasure-seeking and conflict pass before the reader's eyes like a pageant--a highly colorful pageant-- while he intrigues the mind and heart :; with a fascinating mystery and love story. We believe the novel deserves , the adjective great, and we are proud of the fact that we have secured the ' right to publish it as a serial in this "' paper. • Miners, gamblers, soldiers, Indians, road agents and secret service men are mixed up in the plot of "Pay Gravel," a gripping serial beginning soon in this paper. :t t fm V • A large assemblage of Knights of Columbus, most of whom were members of the McHenry council, gathered at the K. of C. hall here last Thursday evening to witness the exemplification of the first degree upon a class of eighteen candidates, sixteen of whom will become members of the McHenry council and the other two of Woodstock and Harvard. The work was put on by the first degree team of the Woodstock council, the members of which were as follows: Grand Knight, J. T. Pratt; deputy Grand Knight, John J. Sullivan, chancellor, Frank Daly; warden, Gordon Stafford; acting financial secretary, E. A. DeCroix; guards, Ray Corr and William Dittman. The members of the class who are to become members of the McHenry council are: Arthur E. Boger, Elmer Kinsala, John E. Kaiser, James Hughes, Jr., Herman Molidor, Louis Stoffel, Harold Knox,-Frank Doherty, Anthony Bonslett, George Young, John Givens, George Worts, Edwin Freund, James Larkin, Peter Schaefer and Cecil Rothermel. v The members of the class, together with a large number of candidates from Woodstock and Harvard, will be given the second and third degrees at Woodstock on Sunday afternoon, June 8. The class will number sixty or more. The initiation at Woodstock will be followed by a banquet and it is expected that a large delegation of local Knights will go over to witness the work and take in the banquet and program in the evening. TWELVE OPERATORS AT TELEPHONE EXCHANGE Miss Ruth Kent is the latest of our young ladies to enroll her services at the local exchange of the Illinois Bell Telephone company. There are now twelve young ladies employed at the local exchange and, in view of the fact that the heavy summer business starts soon, more will probably be needed to keep up the excellent service maintained by the company. In common with the telephone business in general, the local exchange has experienced a healthy and substantial growth during the past few years. The time was when three or four operators were able to take good care of the McHenry exchange, but with the growth of our city and the summer resort territory adjacent the twelve "hello girls" are "kept very comfortably busy.

Among those who made up the happy gathering were Mr. and Mrs. Hansel, daughter, Evelyn, and son, Raymond; Mr. and Mrs. Thomas, Mr. and Mrs. A. Asmalsky, Mr. and Mrs. T. Hansel and Mr. and Mrs. Wm.
