' t In 1873, eight years after the close of the Civil Wa|| prices of building materials had receded only Vpdf cent below their highest point reached in 1866. The conditions which caused hig& prices then--demand exceeding the supply, increased money per capita, heightened business activity--are all present today, intensified byolhers , .mQjiefar-reaching. ; \ In the face of this situation, can W£. ^^really hope for law^tkuUding-costs, •. . in the near future? £'*> McHeNRY LUMBEftCQ * QUALITY AND SERVICE FIRST ^ Exi6e Add New Life To Your Battery -Sefore you buy a new battery, let us make sure it is necessary.

Avowing the McHenry outfit but , one scratch hit, Ludeke and Glen Ellyn romped away with an easy victory * over the McHenry outfit at the local grounds last Sunday afternoon. With Ludeke's work the outstanding feature of the contest, there is very little more to be said, unless it be the fact that the locals helped pile up the visitors' end of the score by putting up an exhibition that was n<*t entirely in keeping with good "prairie" ball. Booting, fumbling, misjudging and wiM throws were numerous. Roegntan, occupying the mound for McHenry, was hit rather hard in spots, especially in the sixth inning, when four hits and as many tallies were gleaned off*his delivery. He started the trouble himself by hitting the first man up in this round. The game by innings: « First inning: Achterfeldt fanned. A. Ludeke was thrown out by Warner. Rathbun struck out. No hits, no runs. McHenry: W. Ludeke made a pretty catch of Michels' drive to center. Knox w#s thrown out by Kendall, while Warner lifted an easy fly to the same fellow. No hits, no runs.
