W. Officials Mayor Simon Stoffel of this village was in Chicago on Wednesday of this week, where, with a committee made up of officials of the Fox River & T.nlr»g Improvement association, meeting was held with officials of the C. & N. W. Railway Co. for the purpose of ascertaining just what may be expected from that company in the way of summer train service between this point and Chicago during the coming summer months. The gentlemen were most courteously received by the railroad officials and Mayor Stoffel informs us that patrons of the road may rest assured of improvement in the service the fining summer. One of the things which the company has promised to look after is that there will be plenty of coaches at the service of the public. Last year, it will be remembered by hundreds of people who used the railroad for travel, it' was a case ef getting onto the train first in order to assure yourself a seat Hundreds were obliged to stand up all the way from this station to Chicago and this occurrence came with marked regularity. The promise of the railway company to remedy this condition should be pleas ing news to the crowds who will visit McHenry over the week ends during the season. Other improvements have also been taken under advisement. Dancing at Nell's There will be dancing at Nell's Columbia park pavilion on Fox river, near the Johns\>urg bridge, on Friday evening, May 12, as well as on Sunday afternoon and evening, May 14. Sunday afternoon will be from 2:00 to 5:00 o'clock, while in the evening the dancing will continue from 8:00 until 1:00 o'clock.

A cordial invitation is extended to everyone Bus service between McHenry *n" the pavilion. . The residents of this community and especially those of Ringwood and vicinity were once more thrown into deep gloom last Saturday, occasioned by the death of W. E. Bradley, for many years one of Ringwood's foremost citizens and successful business nen. The deceased was taken suddenly HI on April 18 and almost from the very start it was seen that his condition was of a serious nature. Since that time he grew weaker each day, until a few days before his demise all hope of his recovery was given up, his death bringing a seven shock to his wife and members of his family as well as to a host of warm friends. Walter Edmond Bradley, son of Mrs. Alice G. and the late Roswell Bradley, was born in Johnson, Vt., on Nov. 10, 1869. Here he grew up and received his education. He was united in marriage to Martha Marvin in 1892. In 1895, with his wife and infant son, he came west find settled at Ringwood, where he entered the employ of J. E. Cristy, who at the time conducted a general store there. Several years later, when Mr. Cristy decided to accept an opening in a larger field at Waupaca, WTs., Mr. Bradley and the late Warren E. Foss, who passed away in 1919, formed a partnership and bought out their employer. The partnership was continued until after the death of Mr. Foss, since which time and up until the death of Mr. Bradley the business was carried on by the latter. During the many years that the deceased has been a resident of Ringwood and during his business career he has come to be known and loved by every man, woman and child in the entire community. His ever pleasing disposition, his fair business methods and clean life have brought to him the high respect and esteem of hundreds of people thruout this entire section of McHenry county. Always meeting his customers and friends with sincere cordiality, he was admired by everyone. Thru these rare traits ef character he was always able to enjoy the confidence of those with1 whom he did business. \ Mr. Bradley was a member of Masonic Blue lodge, No. 158, of this ^ village and also tho McHenry chapter, O. E. S., the Modern Woodman of America and the Mystic Workers of the World. He also served as a director the West McHenry State bankr' He was the father of three children, one daughter, Helen, passing away in infancy. Another daughter, Winifred, and r son, Karl, together with a grief stricken wife and mother and one brother-, Allen, are left to survive. The funeral was held frap the Ringwood M. E. church at 2:00 o'clock on Tuesday afternoon of this week. Rev. H. J. Collins of Clinton, Wis., assisted by Rev. Ross of Greenwood, officiated. The services at the grave were conducted by members of the McHenry Masonic lodge. Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Holly of this village sang. The funeral was the largest, in point of attendance, of any held in McHenry township in years, scarcely a town within a radius of fifteen miles "being without a representation. Indeed a beautiful exemplification of the high respect in which the deceased had been held 'by the people of this territory. The deepest and most sincere sympathy is extended to the bereaved ones by the people thruout the entire town of McHenry. Card of Thanks We wish in this public manner to thank kind friends and neighbors for their aid and sympathy in our affliction. The Bradley Family. In a determined effort to provide fttnds with which to carry out this year's program the Fox River & Lakes Improvement association, which accomplished so much last year, is asking that members mail or hand in their annual dues. The letter to members, in which the appeal for dues is made, is herewith reproduced. Give it your immediate attention. Secretary's Offlee, Chicago, 111. Dear Sir--In going over the membership list of our association with our secretary and treasurer, the writer finds that the 1922 membership fees are coming in very slowly and takes this opportunity of appealing to you for your support of the association at an early date. The accomplishments of the association last year surely have evidenced to every property owner and resident the value of maintaining this association and, in fact, increasing its membership, due particularly to the recognition we have received due to the fact that we are organized and also as a protection to your holdings there should be no public spirited resident of the district who should have any reason for not supporting this association. The directors and committees are now working on various improvements to be made this coming year and are anxious to get an early start on such work so that the residents of the district can enjoy these improve ments during the whole season, but in order to do this the directors must have the funds with which to take care of such improvements, and as we depend upon the membership fee for this money, it is obvious that all members send in their membership fee at an early date so that the directors can make their appropriations now. Will you therefore kindly co-operate with us by sending in your membership fee at an early date so that we can arrange to make appropriations for the various 1922 improvements within the next two weeks if possible? Assuring you that your cooperation will he appreciated, we beg to remain, Yours very truly, ft Lakes Improve. Assn. A. V. Hannifin*, Pres. SPECIAL SALES DAY HAY 17 COipyNITY CLUB TO SPONSOR.

The bride is the granddaughter of the late Wm. B. Schumacher of this village, the builder of the telephone exchange building here. She has visited McHenry quite frequently during the past several years and in that way met and endeared her self to a large number of our young people. The groom before and after the late war was employed at Vogt's drug store in this village. He entered the service during the late war and since his release from the army successfully completed a course in pharmacy. After his graduation from an eastern school of pharmacy he returned to McHenry and resumed his position in the store of his brother-inlaw here, which he filled with credit to himself and the best of satisfaction to his employer until a short time before his marriage. He recently purchased a drug store at Elburn, 111., where he and his bride are now making their home. McHenry friends extend congratulations.

After the games a delicious lunch Over Torty of McHenry*8 Business Houses Participate la Biggest Bargain Day Evr Undertaken Sponsored by the Community club of McHenry and with the co-operation of more than forty of the business men a giant SPECIAL SALES DAY is tb he held here on Wednesday of next week, May 17. The idea was first talked over at a recent meeting of the local organisation and, while all of the business houses who are to take part in the yronster undertaking were not represented at the meeting, sufficient encouragement was given the project to induce the business methods committee to make a canvass of the business men of the village to determine just how many of them would be willing to come in on the scheme. Just how successful this committee was can best be judged from the full page display advertisement which appears elsewhere in this week's issue of The Plaindealer. McHenry is a trade center with first-class busings houses which carry splendid stocks of goods, far better, in fact, than most towns of its size. Forty or more business houses, whose advertisements appear under the SPECIAL SALES DAY heading, cordially invite the citizens of this vilage, the adjacent territory and nearby towns to participate in this greet sale. Every one of the houses offers some inducement in a real concession that should interest buyers every where and we feel assured that you will find a visit to any one or all of these places most profitable and of such interest that you will in the fu ture make McHenry your shopping center. The latch string is out. The large and well selected stocks of our business enterprises are in and to the discriminating buyer there is now the best opportunity in years to buy seasonable goods at the best possible prices. This fact, together with the SPECIAL SALES DAY bargains, places at the public's disposal advantages never before offered the buying public in this community. Hie business houses which have come in on this splendid plan make the following stipulations regarding the bargains offered: First, the prices quoted hold good for one day only, Wednesday, May 17. Second, cash must accompany each sale. Third, no telephone orders will be accepted. Understand, telephone orders applies to the special inducements only. All other telephone orders will receive their usual prompt and courteous attention. It wiil be to the shoppers' interest to read carefully the SPECIAL SALES DAY advertising, take especial note of the unusual bargains offered and then make it a point to be in McHenry on Wednesday so as to be able to take advantage of the bargains offered. The business houses have done their part to make the day the biggest bargain event ever offered here. Now it is up to the public to take advantage of same. Jot down the date and you'll be sure tt> be in McHenry on WEDNESDAY, MAY 17. Once more we ask you to tWi to the advertisements. CWfflUHITY CLUB'S MRGS CEMENT ROAD NOW AiiRMD FOR McHENRY served by hostess' mother and sister. At a late hour the guests departed for their homes, assuring their hostess that they had spent a most enjoyable evening. Besides the teachers, Mrs. Jas. P. Green and Miss Marguerite Knox were present.;; ^ , .Variety Club Entertained^---- The members of the Variety c1uT> Are Back of Ua That the officials of the Fox River & Lakes Improvement association are very much interested in the future welfare of McHenry and vicinity shown by the unusual interest which is being manifested by this body of Chicagoans in the activities of the Community club of this village. Mayor Stoffel, who met with a num ber of these officials in Chicago Tuesday of this week, brings back the good news that the association as a body is not only backiflg us in our good roads proposition so far as route 20 is concerned, but is also pushing W8S! other routes which will prove a great A. f1,000 advertising campaign to furtlier stimulate our summer resort business and increase very materially the number of our summer home owners in McHenry and along our beautiful river is now assured and, according to present plans, the first of a series of large display advertisements will appear in the Chicago Tribune on the morning of May 19. To encourage such a proposition the C. & N. W. Railway company has signified a willingness to contribute ?250 provided McHenry raises the balance of the fund required or $750. To ascertain just what could be done in McHenry towards the raising of the required amount, the members of the publicity committee of the Community club, with the assistance of Mr. Harris, a representative of the Chicago Tribune, made a canvass of the business, professional and representative men of the village on Tuesday of this week, with the result that enough of the required amount was subscribed to assure the campaign. A number of business men were away on Tuesday and therefore could not be seen on the proposition. Those who have not been seen would confer the officials of the Community club and especially the members- of the publicity committee a great favor if they will notify any official of the club or member of the publicity committee to what extent they are willing to contribute. The undertaking is a big one and should have the hearty co operation of everyone interested in the future welfare of our community as a summer resort. For the convenience of those residing on the West SHe subscriptions will *be received jy C. J. Reihansperger. In Centerville word may be left with F. G. Schreiner, while, those in the lower end of town may consult W. L. Howell. McHenry and Fox river as a summer resort district offer recreational opportunities that connot be Burpassed anywhere. While hundreds of Chicagoans as well as citizens of many other cities have already found this fact to be true, there is plenty of room for expansion along this line and to assist in bringing this fact to the attention of thousands of city folks who are ever on the elert for resort that is within a reasonably short distance of their homes, it has thus been decided to use a very liberal space in the columns of th«rtChicago Tribune. To make McHenry and Fox river the play ground of thousands of Chicago people is our aim. Nature has provided us with everything thiat will in any way attract. A more beautiful stream than the Fox is not to be found in the country. Its clear and refreshing waters make the stream most desirable for bathing and boating, while the stream also abounds in all kinds of game fish. With just enough water to make it desirable and safe to brilig the wife and kiddies" to, the Fox surely to tn a class of its own. Then, too, we have the natural scenery, which is a feast for the eyes. Comfortable passenger boats, which ply the waters of the Fox and the northern, chain of lakes, make 40-mile water trip from McHenry real possibility. In the way of amusements McHenry and the Fox river offer regular weekly band concerts, moving pictures, two dance pavilions and two of the very finest golf grounds to be found anywhere. Sufficient in ducement, we believe, to eventually make McHenry and Fox river the big gest and most important summer re sort district to be found in the central west benefit to brothers. community.

McHenry Will Provide Csnphj Grounds For Automobile Tourist#^* Talk on Radio Heard Monday In spite of the fact that the stores * had gone back to their regular summer opening schedule, which meant that some of the members were unable to be present, the regular bi-monthly meeting of the Community club as held at the K. of C. hall on Monday evening of this week was very well attended and once more gives evidence that interest in the organization is continually on the increase. A number, we are sure, were attracted to the meeting by preview* announcement that a radio receiving set would be installed in the hall for the entertainment of those who would attend the meeting. The set was there and ready for service, but owing to the fact that the "loud talker" did not prove up to expectations made this feature of the evening's entertainment rather disappointing. Some consolation was given the gathering, however, when Mr. Cam field of Chicago, speaker of the evening, announced that he hoped to return to McHenry for another meeting of the club on some near future date, at which time he would bring out one of the very latest improved receiving* outfits for our entertainment. After opening th£ meeting Mr. Howell introduced Mr. Camfield as speaker of the evening. The honored guest responded by giving the gathering quite a lengthy talk on radio, going back to its birth and following its progress up to the present time. To those- who are very much interested in the world's latest and greatest invention the talk proved very pleasing. While the subject was somewhat foreign to many in the audieiMM^ the speaker was not long in convincing his listeners that he was well versed along that particular line. At the conclusion of his talk the speaker took his seat amid a hearty applause. On call of the president the various committees reported as follows: Membership committee: The signing at four new members SUMO the previous meeting. Business methods committee: That a thoro canvass of the business houses had been completed and afl arrangements made for the holding of * Special Sales Day on Wednesday, May 17. Public affairs: That a eoaMnittee composed of Mayor Stoffel and Aldermen Knox and Overton had made a trip to Waukegan on that day, where they consulted Governor Small in regard to the building of route No. 20 this year. The committee seemed very pleased to report that they brought back with than the promise that the road from Volo to McHenry and thru this village would, in all probability, be completed this year. Bids fcr a five mile stretch from the Lake county line, thru this village and thence on to Woodstock are expected to be asked very shortly. In fact, the report of the committee was to the effect that the governor appeared very anxious for an early start, not only on this particular stretch, but his entire state program as well. The report brought forth great cheers. The committee further reported that the preliminary work on the proposed sewerage system is being rushed with all possible haste. Publicity committee: This committee reported the fact that some canvassing for funds to advertise McHenry and Pox river as a summer resort thru the Chicago press had been done and that the canvass would be completed very shortly. Elsewhere in this issue one will find how successful the committee has been in their endeavor to put over the plan. The committee further reported that it had been successful in getting the consent of M. A. Conway, of Conway's park on the east side of _ ox river, to opeii that beautiful place as a camping ground for automobile tourists. Many of the cities thruout the country are advertising camping grounds to attract automobile tourists their way and now that McHenry has fallen in line in this respect many of this class of tourists may be expected to stop here during the season. House committee: " The house, committee reported that the next meeting of the club would be held at. " McHenry House with a seven dinner on the evening of M May 22.
