The road leading out of McHenry via the McHenry mill is being greatly improved by grading and widening. This stretch is usually in bad condition at this time of the year but owing to the absence of rain things weren't so bad this spring. However, it is the desire of the town committee to have this road in the best condition that it is humanly possible to make it. Every carpenter and contractor in this city is again busy. From present indications these tradesmen will be kept going thruout the entire building season. More building is going on within the city at this time than in many a spring.

The initiation fee is $100, yearly dues for a regular member are $75, a summer membership is $100, a junior membership $50 and a non-resident membership $35, all subject to 10 per cent war tax. Guest fees are raised to $1.50 per person. The club house early this season will be put in suitable condition for its many uses.

PUBLIC CARD PARTY A public card party will be sponsored by the members of Riverview camp, R. N. A., at Weber's hall on Riverside Drive on Thursday evening, April 23. Five hundred and bunco will be played at the conclusion of which refreshments will ^e served. The public is cordially invited to attend. Wednesday evening, May 27, is announced as the date upon which "The Joyce Kilmer Players," Chicago's foremost Catholic dramatic guild, will occupy the Empire theatre in this city for one special performance of "The Watcher at the Gate," a psychological play in four acts by William Roeder and A. E. Bradley. This production may be truly called a great study of the problem of spiritism which has caused so much discussion throughout the world within the last few years. Sotne of the incidents portrayed are full of well-turn ted humor; others where life is looked upon seriously,, are grave, but all are human to the core. "The Watcher at the Gate" is unusually satisfying. The hero steadily approaches the dividing line between safety and ruin and you are kept in agitated suspense until the dramatic climax. It is a big, strong, meaty play, rich in mature thought concerning the dangers of modern spiritism, with a life-size portrait of a noble and devout parish priest in it. The management has mounted the play with unusual lavishness and particular attention has been paid to both the costuming and the lighting effects Thus far ."The Joyce Kilmer Players" have given more than seventy-five performances of this splendid play in leading Chicago theatres and other large cities thruout the middle yrest. Their coming to McHenry will, no doubt, cause a very keen interest in the production. The entire original cast will appear in the play on, the night that it is presented here, The play is brought to McHenry under the auspices of St. John's Catholic church of Johnsburg to which ttap «gt proceeds will go.
