Phone 98-R, McHenry III. Auctioneering. A riot of fun is what the critics proclaim for "That's G&ie On Bill" to be seen at the Empire theatre, on Monday and Tuesday evenings,* Feb. 23 and 24. The spring-like days of last week and the rain of Monday brought out at least some of the frost, but not enough to take care of the surface water, which has been quite abundant. The next regular meeting of Joyce Kilmer court, Daughters of America: will take place at the K. of C. hall on Friday evening of this week, Feb. 13. The business session will be followed by a social hour. The home talent play, namely, "Listen Ladies," will be given by the Ladies' Aid at the M. E. church on Thursday evening, Feb. 26.

The Troubadour male quartet, which made up the fourth number of the McHenry lyceum bourse at St. Patrick's church hall on Monday evening of this week, made a distinct hit with the audience which turned out to greet these unusually fine vocalists. The first day of spring is only a trifle over a month away. Let's hope that when it does arrive it will be here to stay. This keeping your coal fires burning up until the middle of May is perfectly satisfactory to some, but most of us don't lik£ the idea at all. The new windows for St. Mary's Catholic church have arrived and v/ill be set sometime between now ^nd Easter Sunday. The windows are said to be very beautiful in design and colors and will most certainly add greatly to the beauties of this edifice. Joseph Unger, father of Mrs. Peter W. Frett of this city, passed away at his late home in Chicago last Thurs day, Feb. 5, following a week's illness. The deceased was seventy-four years of age.

The first thunder and electrical storm of the season visited this section last Sunday morning. Quite an unusual occurrence for this season of the year. However, the rain was welcomed by most of us as many of the cisterns about town were either entirely depleted or very low. Rev. Father Ceus of Milwaukee, Wis., is expected to arrive in this city today to assume charge of St. Mary's parish during the absence of Rev. C. S. Nix, who left on Tuesday of this week for Florida, where he expects to spend about six weeks. Rev. Ceus will read mass tomorrow (Friday) morning. The supper, as given at the Universal ist church parlors last Saturday evening, was very well attended and as a result the treasury of the church was enriched to the extent of more than $60.00 DQWLING IN TOURNBI^I At leasf some of the members of the various teams in the two local bowling tSams seem to have hit their stride, as the scores of the past week will show.

Lastf week it was discovered that quite a large number of our fire hydrants were frozen.

S., were guests of the Woodstock chapter at Masonic hall at the county seat last Friday evening Four candidates were initiated into the order, followed by refreshments. The McHenry guests report a fine time and most hospitable treatment at the hands of their hostesses.
