EIGHTEENTH AMENDMENT Attention has been called recently to this subject by the good work of our district attorney and fellow citizen, Lawyer Alfred Pouse. ThiS" question is always before us because law enforcement is always before us in all its forms. The perilous thing about the question is that there are so many people who think that the only way to change the law in to violate it so that it be changed. Their chief concern is not to change the law, but just to satisfy a pei'sonal appetite. Anyone who puts the gratification of a personal appetite before the welfare of his country had better examine his right to be called patriotic. What makes it perilous is that the cloak of respectibility is put over the large class of other criminals who break safes and take what they need to gratify another appetite. If the 18th amendment is not right, change it. Th^ amendment came in the orderly way, as the seventeen others have, in spite of what some of the people s&y to the contrary. It came because a majority of the people of this country authorized it through their representatives. If it is changed a majority must come to believe that it should be changed. If the citizens of McHenry want information about the value of the 18th amendment, let them seek it from Christian sources. The newspapers of Chicago will have to be watched very closely. They do not have a policy that can be called Christian, for they lean toward the wet and wealthy side of the question. There is an organization that does give reliable information. The Anti-Saloon League is the authorized organization of the Christian Churches of America in action against the liquor traffic. You are the people who support these churches ,and the Anti-Saloon 'League is your organization. Trust it, in spite of what its enemies say. Its leaders are chosen from the regular 'clergymen of the church, whom you have worked with in some direct or indirect way. You can learn about the 18th amendment and law enforcement by writing to the Anti-Saloon League of Illinois, 1200 Security Bldg., Chicago. I am going to speak on the subject at church next Sunday, and all are welcome to attend. If the American people will listen to and read the, results ef the 18th amendment, it will never be repealed, I feel sure. Everyone must take an interest in Law Enforcement on this question! Law and Order is at stake. We cannot live in the bloodshed of Anarchy; we must have a government. If you as citizens will read and listen and think and act, nothing under heaven can break down that truth that Abraham Lincoln spoke "that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." If you will make it 'or, 'by' and 'for* the people, it will live as the best form of government for lif^ liberty and the pursuit of happiness. B. F. Wentworth, ftistor of M. E.

Some of the most interested in our cemetery turned otft last Friday and made quite a clean up. All the weeds an^ dead grass were burned. This is a small cemetery, many that formerly were interested in it have passed away and some have no relatives here.

The farm has changed owners several times and every owner much rather the cemetery had not b^en there but it is there for all time. The man that gavo the deed is buried there.

Tea Good Reasons Why ' YOU SHOULD SEE "THArSONEON BILL" REASON NO. 1--Robert Green, as "Uncle fitnmie," starred in "Major Bob," "All Aboard" and several other home talent plays given in McHenry during past few seasons. No time to talk real estate on these two nights. REASON NO. 2--Leo Heimer, who will carry the lead as "Billy Haley," has consented to postpone his contemplated trip to bis winter home at Miami, F1&-) in order to carry this role. Comes high, but got to have 'em. REASON NO. 3--Jimmie Doherty as "Battling Benny Bozo," who has already announced hiB intentions of taking on all comers after each performance, will make his initial stage appearance. This will surely be a knockout. REASON NO. 4--Al. Barbian as "Henry Dover"" needs no introduction to McHenry theatre patrons as his last appearance in "All Aboard" proved a scream; and he can dance. REASON NO. 5--Will Bickler has been assigned the role of "Ned Collins." It will be remembered that Bill lost his teeth in his last public appearance, but since then has invested in a new set and will be there with plenty of good, live stories. REASON NO. 6--Mildred Welch as "Patricia Niles" will carry the role of the "movie actress." Miss Welch has consented to sacrifice h<^ musical career and trip to Europe for further developmeBtof her musical ambition, that she may interpret this important character. REASON NO. 7--Miss Dorothy Knox, who has won fame as a Radio song bird, ban been chosen to carry the part of "Lil Haley." Mifes Knox's ability as a dramatist is already well known. She has been offered a most attractive contract by a Hollywood Screen company and may accept the offer immediately after this play. So this may be your last opportunity of seeing her. , REASON NO. 8--Miss Lillian Stilling has been assign- - ed the role of "Mab Allen." A part to which she is very suitably adapted. It looks like the Illinois Telephone company would lose one of their "Hello girls" after the show, as dramatic critics, who will witness the production, will most certainly offer some tempting contracts. More power to Lil. REASON NO. 9--Miss Elola Boyle as "Mrs. Haley." She has pleased you in a number of plays given here in the past, but on this oocasion you win see your favorite at her best. No more teaching after . the show. REASON NO. 10--Miss Lillian Freund as "Rosie" the maid. Although this will be her first public appearance on the stJage, you'll like her acting. , Rosie in private life drives a Buick and you will surely see her stepping on the gas on the nights -Of Feb. 23 and 24.
