' The work of laying out the course has already been completed and is now subject to approval of an expert on golf, who is to be consulted later. Actual work on the grounds which are to be used for the lipks will start within the course of the next two weeks and everything possible will, be done this fall so as to have the grounds in fairly good shape by the opening of next season. <K)LF CLUB NAMES COMMITTEES eras STB UNDERTAKERS ON BOAT TRIP FRIDAY NIGHTS STORM Does Great Damage to Telephone and Light Systems TEACHERS ARE ALL ENGAGftD FOR COMING TEAR Dupre, Horace • * ^Ofta of the most damaging rain, wlftd and electrical storms of the season {Missed over this section last Friday night and as a result of its visitation both telephone and electric light systems were put out of commission for a while at least ^ The lighting system was the first to feel the effects of the storm and try as they might workmen .were unable to give this section any kind of service until early Saturday morning, when both the power and .light set vice was resumed. The telephone coin puny had a gang of men on the job er.rly Saturday morning and, while the repair work has baen going on ever since, there are still some lines out of the McHenry exchange which cannot be used. However, the men are working as they never worked before and the same excellent servida of the past frill soon be resumed. In spite of the strong wind the damage to the corn hereabouts is not as great as one would naturally expect While it is true that some fields suffered quite severely, there are others which remained almost uninjured and as a whole the farmers thruout this township have little cause for complaint. The extent of the damage by 1he storm cannot be estimated at this time altho it is known that many telephone and electric light wires as well as some poles were torn down. Here in the village as well as in the rural districts many trees were blown down, while branches of trees could be seen almost everywhere. This same condition appeared to be quite general thruout the entire county. Building Railroad Bridge Th- railroad bridge over the mill race creek and underneath Jaie new side track is under construction this week. Six immense tile, which are to be used in the construction of the bridge, were unloaded this week and are now being placed. The tile are six feet in length, five and one-half feet across and weigh 7,200 pounds each. George Meyers ot this village has the contract for unloading and placing the tile and expects to complete the job this week. The filling in will be done by the contractor who built the side track. The track, ip spite of the absence of the bridge, has already been used. Motor Boat Races Sunday Quite a number of the motor hoot enthusiasts will go to Channel Ifke next Sunday afternoon, where a handicap motor boat race-will be conducted under the auspices of the Fox River ft Lakes Improvement association These races have become quite popofv lar among our summer populace. Will Picnic Here Sundajr Members of the Waukegan courts, C. O. F., together with their families, will enjoy a basket picnic in Conway's woods oast of this village next Sunday. It is expected that there will be two hundred or more in Four New Teachers In High School-- , Blanche Pry or and Mabel Peterson of Last Year's Corps to Return The McHenry community high schqel as well as the grade school will open on Monday, Sept. 5. Every student should be present to enroll and select, courses, if in high school. Entrance examination to the hi$h school wiil be given on the opening day to students who did not have the opportunity to take the examination last spring or for some other reason are entitled to take same. New courses are to be added in the high school in sewing and household science and some new equipment has been ordered and is now being installed. , It is expected that the attendance this year, especially in the high school, will be Considerably larger than, last year and, while this will mean a rather crowded condition, things will be so arranged as to give both teachers and students the very best advantages that can be provided under the circumstances. Thus students and patrens of the schools are assured of another very successful Vear. * The personnel of the high school faculty is as follows: , Blanche D. Pryor and Mabel E. Peterson of last year's corps. Gladys Cassells, Latin. Graduate of the University of, Chicago. Has had several years' experience as a high school teacher. Gertrude Kisch, mathematics.' Graduate of Northwestern University and taught last year at Alzona, Iowa. Ezra Moser, science. Graduate of Bluffton college, Bluffton, Ohio. Gleora E. Johnson, domestic science. Graduate of the University of Illinois. Has had a year of experience as teacher in that department The teachers in the elementary school will be: Beatrice Dean, eighth grade; Alice Knox, seventh grade; Mary Bonslett, fifth and sixth grades; Nellie Doherty, third and fourth grades; Eleanor Phalin, second grade; Pearl Claxton, first grade. Qswell G. Treadway has beefi re-engaged as superintendent and will preside over the high as well as the grade school. ^ From the above itoaay be seen that each and every department of the high school will be in charge of ^ble teachers, who will strive to give McHenry a school of which we, may all feel proud. - To accomplish the very best results however, it is absolutely necessary that the teachers be given the undivided co-operation of every parent and patron within the jurisdiction of the two schopi districts. Let us hope that this co-operation may be freely extended. t \ MeGee Family Reunion The annual reunion of the McGae family of McHenry and Lake counties took place on the Sutton property on Fox river at Emerald park last Sunday.

A stop for luncheon was made at Grass lake, where the lotus beds were also visited. From Grass take the trip was continued thru the chain of lakes and thence back via Fox and Pistakee lakes and bay. , / That the trip was highly enjoyed is putting it mildly.

The various committees working out the details for the holding of the gigantic event are very much encouraged over the reception being tendered them by our citizens in general arid especially by the support which is being extended by the business ^men of the village. This is indeed encouraging to the pastor and his parishioners and if this same spirit prevails thruout McHenry is going to witness an occasion as has never before been undertaken by a town of our size in the country. The amusement and entertainment committees are extending their efforts in providing amusements, attractions and special features. Letters have been gotten up and are this week being mailed to former residents in the hope that the home-coming feature of the big event will prove $ big success.
