Louis Johnson was out from Chicago last Sunday looking after his business interests on Fox river. The regular trips between McHenry and the lakes have been discontinued bv the Hunter boat line, altho special tri|>s will be made on request. ,T. M. McOmber and family have re­ turned to their city home and them cottage. Jonell, is now being occupied !>v Mr. Tice and family of Chicago. Capt. S. M. Walker of Chicago has been spending the week at his summer home on Fox river. The captain has made many good improvements on his river property, in which he takes great pride. A little girl wanted to see the show at the air dome so four of the old folks of the family accompanied her "just to look after her." That's all right, but if it was a question of church one grown person could look after eleven kids. 13 Quite a large number of hotel pi-o- prietors in the Fox lake region have closed their various places of business for the season. Most of the cottage owners have also returned to their winter homes and the resorts in this section present a deserted appearance As long as the present warm weather continues hotel proprietors of Pistakee Hay and Lake and McHenry look fot large crowds on Saturdays and Sun­ days. One of the most sparkling sesions of the drama ever inaugurated in this city wil4 be seen at the Central opera house Sat unlay evening, Sept. 14 when "The Governor's Pardon" will be presented. Everything is said to be fresh and overflowing with humor­ ous situations, catchy dialogues and surprising changes that help to keep the audience on the qui-vive for surge after surge of side-splitting amuse­ ment. 13 In last week's issue we made mention of a motor boat race at Pistakee Bay for the season's cup. The item should have read a sail boat race. The race, in question, was a contest between the "John I)., Jr.," and the "Sunny Jim," these two craft of the water being the real contenders for the season's cup hung up by the Pistakee Yacht club. The race was won by the "John D., Jr.," and was sailed by the Duffy boys. The winning boat finished five minutes ahead of its rival and won the race as well as the cup with twenty- five points to the good. A handsome mahogany clock was presented to the Pistakee Yacht club by the Young Ladies' Card club at the meeting last Saturday evening. Here­ after there will not be any excuse for the club members who get home late for dinner on Sundays after the races, nor will the dancers on Saturday even­ ing have trouble to find out when it is twelve o'clock. The following are the members who contributed toward the purchase of the clock: Miss Florence Kdelmann, president; Jane Small, sec­ retary: Mabel Ranks, Florence Banks, LeolaChancellor, Natalia Carson, Marie Koch, Mildred McRoberts, Helen Mil­ ler, Francesca Moyer, Ethel Reebie, Loretta Solomon, Esther Hohnquist, Eleanore Hohnquist, Marie Duffy, Gwendolyn Reed, Frances Reed, E. Thomas, F. Clifford and Mrs. Harry E. Hoff, chaperon. Seventy-seven members of the Grutli Manner choir and Schweitzer Singing club of Chicago enjoyed last Sunday among the beautiful scenes of Fox river and Pistakee Bay. The two so­ cieties held a business meeting on Sat­ urday evening last to decide and make plans for the outing. One of the club members called up Capt. F. A. Beller of the Walker boat line and made ar­ rangements to have the party cared for the following day. The jolly crowd arrived in McHenry on the 10:04 train on Sunday morning and was taken to istakee Bay ly excursion boats, here they passed the day in a most enjoyable manner. This was the first trip that the two clubs had ever made up this way and all present declared that it was one of the finest that they had ever taken. Most of the visitors, altho r esidents of Chicago, were born in Switzerland, and all expressed their surprise at finding such a beautiful ver and scenery so close to Chicago. Some even went so far as to say that the trip brought back memoriesof their alive land. That the outing was thoroly enjoyed by all goes without saying and from the many comments that were heard from the visitors thru- out the day we should say that the clubs will make |,he trip again next ear. It sure was an outing that none ill ever forget. TrophlM AwtrM.

HARRISON, Crystal Lake road. i;-2t Your and It THERE is always a ready market at a pood price for baled hay. It Can be handled easily. It prevents waste. Baling is most profitable when you use I H C pull power presses requiring either one or two horses; or I H C motor presses using 3, 4, or 6-horse power I H Cjengines. Both styles have three separate bale chamber sizes, 14 x 18 inches, 16 x 18 inches, 17 x 22 inches. Many farmers feed their own stock silage and shredded corn stover and sell their high-priced hay. A big majority of them Use IHC Hay Presses The I H C pull power press has a greater capacity than any other horse press of its size. The stepover is the lowest and narrowest made. An adjustable bale tension insures compact bales. A roller tucker makes each bale neat and smooth in appearance. The I H C motor press consists of a bale chamber and an I H C engine, mounted to­ gether on substantial trucks. When not bal­ ing hay you have a portable I H C engine, which can be used to saw wood, pump water, shell corn, grind feed, separate cream, or to run any farm machine for which its power makes it suitable. Two perfect machines in one. Call on the I H C local dealer in your town, or, write for an I H C hay press catalogue.

It took an exposure of five minutes in the full glare of the noon-day sun. Today it takes but a fraction of a second, even in the softly modu­ lated light of a studio. Clever photographers and fast plates and len­ ses have made having your picture taken a rather pleasant exper­ ience these days. SdMbel's Pliet! Studio THWt; 1100-J WES'! trHENRY, ILL.
