SALVATION AHMY FUND DRIVE McHenry Cewnty Called Upon to / Raise $1945.00 For Goad Caaae Hoyt E. Morris, secretary of the McHenry county fair, and-considered one of the real active men of the coiinty, has accepted the chairmanship for the McHenry county 1921 drive for funds for the Salyation Army. Everjr true America* will remember what the Salvation Army did for the boys overseas and what they have been doing for the vast army of exservice men who have been unemployed for the past few months, by getting them employment, giving them rne&ls and clothing, so that the Salvation Army is still rendering a patriotic service to the ex-service men. It will not only be ex-service men who will be unemployed and hungry this winter, but it will be men, women and families that the Salvation Army will be called upon t» help and the money that is raised in McHenry county will be used in the state of Illinois only, and if necessary for relief of any poor and destitute in our own county of McHenry. It was only a short time ago that the Salvation Army was called upon to help at the great floods at Pueblo, Colo. The Salvation Army was the first to arrive there and the last to leave. So therefore it is up'to the people of McHenry county to help to raise the quota for this county thruout the week of October 22 to 29 inclusive.

A Ten Foot Iron |>ipe aa Outlet to Pewaukee Lake Rtspomible For Beautiful Fox River Becoming a bit discouraged o«4r our repeated ill-success in opening up boat navigation on the Fox river from McHenry to the actual source and fountain head of the stream, I concluded that it would be easier, if less romantic, to discard the boat and adopt the automobile as a means of transportation. I dared rny fami'.y to join me in such a trip, pledging them that they should not be compelled to camp out, but should sleep under roof, eat plenty of nourishing food and se® much new territory. This invitation met with a unanimous acceptance, and we also took with us our good friend, Herman, who can shut his eyes and describe the workings of any make of gasoline engine and can tell by the puff of the exhaust just how much oil is in the crank case and gasoline in the tank. A mighty useful citizen is that man Herman, especially around a motor boat or automobile. So on Saturday morning, Sept. 9, our little party, three adults and three children, set out from our Fox river home in a certain automobile which shall be nameless, lest this sketch should be considered a veiled advertisement. In spite of weather prophet James Hughes, who had gone on record that the sky was too high to rain, it had rained very heavily during the night' and it was raining right merrily as we crossed the McHenry bridge and swung north along the river road. Our plan, so far as we had a plan, was to travel north, keepng as near the river as the roads would permit, and xigzag across it on every bridge we could find. We man aged to find and cross twenty-eight of such bridges in all. Just possibly some few young and active bridges managed to conceal themselves and escape our notice, but I don't thtrilc so Our first stop was at the sedate town of Wilmot, Kenosha county, Wisconsin. This Village is said to be as old as Chicago (1833) and it certainly looks its age. We stopped here to inspect dam No. 1, (that is, counting north from our dam at the cottage). Quite a volume of water was pouring over the crest and a miniature lake was backed up behind it. The Wisconsin law does not prohibit fishing near dams and a number of fishermen were trying their luck. If all this had been .but two miles further north .Game Warden Eldredge would surely have scooped them in. Silverlake, five miles further north, and the next town on the river, is a summer resort village, but summer had fled and so had the resort®rs, leaving a few weary looking natives to hold down the place and watch the Soo line trains whistle and rush by. Here begin the long east and west, loops of the Fox river, the stream traveling at least ten miles sidewise to advance two miles on its north and south course. In a boat, as we know painfully well, a certain farm house must be passed three separate times before being definitely left behind. Three milea further op, at/ Fox River, a tiny station on the Soo line, we stopped to buy the children some candy at what must be the smallest store in the state of Wisconsin. It consists of but a single room, eight by in size, and located in the railroad freight house. I had been there before, on one of our river trips It spite of its cramped quarters a surprising quantity and variety of goods were on sale and the proprietor said that trade was good. A couple of miles south of Burlington, at the Soc line railroad bridge, is dam No. 2, It is merely a jumble of loose rocks dumped across the river channel, with here and there a gap thru which the water pours. Its purpose is to increase the depth and improve the appearance of the Fox thru the city of Burlington. At Burlington itself, six miles from our last stop, we dismounted for lunch and to buy Junior a pair of trousers, his Sunday-go-tomeeting breeches having inadvertantly been left behind. The madam said that the new trousers we^e good in. texture and fair in pricej while I thought the lunch was poor and rather expensive, so I suppose we struck a fair average. Burlington looked clean and prosperous and completely changed since I first saw it, on a bicycle trip from Chicago to St. Paul, thirty years ago. The White river, the outlet of lakes Geneva and Como, joins the Fox in the midst of Burlington, PLANNING IMPROVEMENTS Still Reporting Big Ones Everett Hunter, Sr., president of the Everett Hunter Mfg. Co. of this village, reports the catch of a 28-inch pickerel and 21% inch black bass. The catches were made during a river outing enjoyed in one of his house boats at the mouth of the Fox- Dur ing the outing Mr. Hunter had as his guests a party of Chicago friends The bass has been sent to a Chicago taxidermist for mounting and will be on display at Mr. Hunter's office very shortly. Once more we are convinced that Fox river and our chain of lakes offer as good fishing grounds as may be found anywhere. Rain Spoils Attendance Owing to the rain of last Thursday evening the crowd at the public card party, sponsored by the Mystic Workers of this village and held at Woodman hall, was not large. However, those who did brave the storm were well repaid, as a most delightful evening was' passed by those in attendance. Five hundred and bunco were the games indulged in and the prizes were awarded as follows: kt five hundred, firsts, M. M. Neisen and Mrs. Wm. Spenoer; at bunco, high, Miss Ellen Spencer. Refreshments, were served at the close of the games. 1 66 Entertained Social Wheel The members of the Social Wheel mot at the home of Mrs. W. D. Wentworth on Waukegan street on Thursday afternoon of last week. An unusually pleasant time was had at this meeting. Games were indulged in, Mrs. J. B. Perry winning high score at bunco and Mrs. Clara Starritt at five hundred. At the usual hour a delicious luncheon was served by the hostess. The next meeting, which was to be held at the home of Mrs. Wm. Spencer, has been postponed until further notice. -- M. E. Church Services Sunday will be rally day for the Sunday school and church.

Unti. According to plans another building, or rather quite a large addition, is to be Added to the present factory early next spring and when completed will give the McHenry enterprise an tee cream manufacturing plant second to none in McHenry county. With the completion pf tha new addition, which i» to join the present structure on the south, the entire original space now occupied will be given over to the manufacture of ice tream, while the new addition will quarter the company's store house and garage for their trucks. The lower end of the present building is to be converted into what is known' as a hardening room. This room, which in all reality is a refrigerating plant, will do away with the present manner of ice cooling and will not only keep the cream in better condition than the old way, but will also do away with the unpleasantness of handling many tons of ice. The ice, in the future, will be used for packing purposes only. A driveway on the south side of the proposed structure will also make it more convenient for the drivers as it will enable the machines to enter and drive in and out of the property without backing and thus do away with the congestion that has so many times occurred during the summer season. Thru the addition of new machinery last spring the company's business has been greatly increased, while the future plans of the cdncern are sure to bring still greater activity to a plaht which is destined to become one of the largest and best of Ha kind outside of the larger cities. " Home From Dakota Trip Leo Stilling arrived in McHenry last Sunday evening from North Dakota, where he had passed six weeks in looking after his father's interests. The McHenry young man made the trip to the northwest by rail, but came back via automobile, covering the 800- mile trip in about four days. Mr. Stilling reports that, with the exception of detours, where road building was in progress, the worst stretch of road experienced on the entire trip was found between McHenry |tnd Lake Geneva. On his home trip he drove a considerable stretch of the Dakota road, the entire width of Minnesota and also was given an opportunity df looking over quite a strip of Wisconsin territory. By using road maps of the three states there was no cause for stopping to inquire directions. Ht reports that most of the gravel roads covered are under the patrol system Entertained at County Seat Mr. and Mrs. P. J. Heimer, Mrs. Chas. Pultx, Mrs. Fred Miller and Norman Brainard were guests of the AH Star club at the home of Mr. and Mrs. M. D. Smalley at Woodstock last Thursday evening. A delicious goose dinner was served at six o'clock, after which a few hours were most delightfully passed at five hundred. Just before the McHenry guests left for home roast weenies and coffee were served. The McHenry people report a most enjoyable time and cordial treatment at the hands of the Woodstock club. OCTOBER mil rilCE$1.7S INDEPENDENT FARMERS MEET DISTRIBUTORS IN CHICAGO McHenry Dairyman la Named ife One of Committee of Seven to Meet Big Buyers [Friday's Daily Woodstock Sentinel] The October price for milk to be paid the producers of McHenry* and Boone counties will be $1.75 per hundred pounds. This price was agreed upon as the result of the meeting held at the Sherman House in Chicago Thursday afternoon between delegates from the two counties and also from certain sections of Southern Wisconsin, representing the independent producers, who were sent to Chicago to confer with a committee representing the big milk distributors, representing such plants as the Borden company, Dairy Products company, Bowman Dairy company, Weiland Dairy company, A.

The commission of E. E. B as sett, the present incumbent, expired this fall and therefore the examination. So far as The Plaindealer has been able to ascertain this village has but one aspirant for the position, Mr. Bassett, altho there may be others. Mr. Bassett has very capably filled the position during the past few years and the patrons would be sorry indeed to have him removed. He has not only proven himself well fitted for the office, but at the same time has given the patrons and public in general splendid service. Besides this he has always displayed an unusual interest in the work and we feel safe in stating that postoffice inspectors have FIRST NUMBER OF McHENRY'S LYCEUM COURSE MERCEDES LADIES QUARTET. !?

A. Bolger and John Anderson of McHenry represented the independent milk producers of this district at the "Chicago meeting last Thursday. These two men have been named as delegates at a meeting of local-independent producers held here last week. While no definite step was taken for an independent organization, in McHenry, this is very likely to come in time. At least, local independents appear to have approved of the" step taken over at Marengo where such a body is now a reality. Two .McHenry Teachers Retired Misses Mary G. Doherty and Etta Powers of this village, who have successfully taught in the rural districts near McHenry for many years past have been placed on the retired list according to an announcement made by the Illinois state teachers' pension and determined fund board on Tuesday of tha S "*gjL •[ 'ii$ Q" * V. % , ^ fa ^ -ii ;. plants. Representatives of the patrons of the above companies wafe in attendance at the meeting from practically all sections of McHenry and Boone counties, while the Cook county independent producers were also represented. In all there were about 100 delegates present at the meeting and in order to bring the matter to a head the delegates as a body selected a committee of seven to meet with the distributors. This committee was composed of John Sullivan of Marengo, Daniel Desmond of Hartland, Daniel Gilley of Barrington, J. D. Donovan of Woodstock, Grant Randall of Hebron, Thomas Bolger of McHenry and E. N. Cassidy of Herbert The committee for the distributors represented all of the companies named above, which companies distribute and handle practically all of the milk produced in this section. After due consideration the committee for the- independent producers presented a proposition fixing the price for October milk at $1,90. As was naturally to be expected, the distributors' committee protested against paying this price, and then ensued quite a lengthy argument, which was marked, however, by perfect harmony between the two factions. Finally the distributors presented a counter proposition, offering a price of $1.75, which was finally agreed on. Unfortunately for the producers the meeting at Chicago was held too late for the independent committee to withhold its reply until a later date, which would have given the committee qn opportunity to again present the matter to the producers themselves for their consideration. Had the reply been delayed further there would have been chance of obtaining anything above the September price, and rather than take this risk the price of $1.75 finally was agreed to. Had the independent producers gotten busy sooner, it is confidently believed that a price considerably higher would have been sc cured for October. As it is, the independent producers feei they have won a signal victory and also have clearly demonstrated that they are capable of handling their own affairs without the assistance of the marketing company. The members of the latter organization no doubt will receive the same price for their milk, but it is believed the "spread" for October, which in all probability will be levied against them, wilFoffset any advantage to be gained by the increased price, as compared with the profit to be realized by the independent producers. Quoting one of the leading authorfound very little, if any, caufee for complaint for the manner in which Mr. Bassett has discharged the duties of the office. • Naturally the patrons of the office as well as our citizens in general are interested in the coming examination and it will be pleasing to many to learn that the p^sent official has successfully passed the required test and will be returned for another tatfH of four years. •» The New Golf Course The McHenry Golf club's new course, in the Owen-Stenger subdivision, is gradually taking form and with favorable weather another month will find the entire course practically completed. Eight of the nine greens are in, while the Qinth will be put in shortly. Much of the course had already been plowed and rolled and grass is being sown. The work on the course has progressed far more rapidly than was first expected and it now looks as if same will be ready for playing with the opening of another season. The course covers sixty-two acres. The local club has already applied for a charter and has leased the course for a period of five years with the privilege 'of another five years, while an option with a stipulated price has also been secured and agreed upon. Up to this time approximately eighty members have signed up, while the officers hope to increase the number to a« even dred before spring. m tiiit hit atatad What People Are XNltt In lage and the Irtfcfjpite -'-Other Short Paragraphs The Ladies' Aid society of • church announce a bazaaz; to be held Dec. 15.
