It was with a feelinj? of pride that Rev. Wm. Weber, pastor of St. John's church, read the report of the recent fair from the pulpit of the church last ^Sunday morning. The summarized report follows: Total gross receipts $1,804.73 Total expenses 299.16 Met proceeds........ .$1,605.57 TMs is approximately $200 more than the net proceeds of last year's fair and the parishioners are indeed happy over the success of the event. The money has already been turned into the church treasury and, according to plans, same will be used on two contemplated improvements. First, an electric motor for the pipe organ and thence much -needed interior repairs on the church edifice. A small gasoline engine is now iurnishing the power for the organ, but an electric motor of the newest type will be found much more satisfactory. The interior of the beautiful church edifice has also been in need of repairs for some time past and, as previously stated, it looks very much as if these two improvements will come sometime during next year. ; OSTEND Several from here were at McHenry Monday and Tuesday helping to reshingle the M. E. church. The teachers and children of our school have commenced decorating for their Christmas exercises. Mrs. Eva Eppel will entertain the ladies of the neighborhood at her home Wednesday afternoon. The ladies of the M. E. Aid served a bountiful warm dinner to those that helped shingle the church. It was highly appreciated. Mrs. Mary Hutson has been spending the past two weeks with relatives in and around Woodstock. Her son, Mark, came up from Wauconda Sunday and she returned home with him. Mr. Hoppe is getting ready for spring crops. He has two teams plowing. This has been a good fall for farmers to get some plowing done. There are many acres turned over. • There are several horses, sometimes three and sometimes five, running at large in the community. If there is an owner he would confer a great favor on the people of the neighborhool by turning them in his own pasture and closing the gate. Very many of us are tired of chasing them Monday evening, Dec. 20. It is a comedy drama of four acts, entitled "The Corner Store." The Ringwood society well have a share of the proceeds.
