Shore & Milwaukee Railroad corapany was granted a permit to operate a motor vehicle omnibus service thru tins villfge. ' This company first sought such a permit more than two months ago. It will be remembered that the company's representatives. appeared before the village board last month, when the request for a permit was laid over in order to give the members of the local body time to make a thoro investiagtion. * The North Shore company is now operating a motor bus service between Kenosha and Lake Geneva, Wis., and, according to reports, the line is doing a very satisfactory business. Just how soon the- service between Waukegan and McHenry will be instituted is not known at this time, altho representatives for the railway company declared that it would be no liter than n*kt spring. The company operates these 1ms lined under the direction of the Illinois utilities commission and therefore when once started a regular schedule must be maintained. According to information given Hie Plaindealer, the motor bus service linfes now operated and to be instituted later on by this company are used as feeders to their electridine which operates between Chicago and dwaukee along the north shore. Tims, the contemplated line between Waukegan and McHenry will not in tslriterl with local tee lines and taxi stations. While the permit granted thp cornpuny at tfonday nights meeting of Ike village board grants them the xfeh t to operate thru this village, it does not give them exclusive right to such a service here. The village may grant as many of these righto as it may see fit so to do. The company,' we are told, is already planning on extending its service as far west as Woodstock, thus connecting the county seats «C McHenry and Lake counties. Took In Niagara Fall The Plaindealer is in receipt of a letter from Wm. Pries, who with his wife left McHenry a week ago last Sunday for a trip to Europe. Mr. Pries writes that they left Chicago at five o'clock on Sunday evening, Sept. 24, arriving at Buffalo, N. Y., at seven o'clock the following morning. After breakfast a taxi was engaged, which took the McHenry people to "Niagara Falls, returning to Buffalo at seven o'clock that evening. "The scenes are undescfibable. You may look at souvenir post cards and read books about the falls, but one must see them to get the full benefit of their great natural beauty," writes Mr. Pries^ He also writes of meeting Chas. Unti in the EX&t and arranging for another meeting in France some time later.

This conclusion was reached at the regular monthly meeting of the local board on Monday night. The machine is to be equipped with an extra tank and is so designed as to make it useful in other cases besides that of drowning.

The meeting of Milk Producers' association delegates and representatives of the Chicago dealers took place at the Hotel LaSalle. The session opened early Saturday morning, but it was nearly six o'clock bef<*e an agreement had been reached. We are informed that there was a strong sentiment among the delegates present to declare a strike. While the Milk Producers' association failed to get the price asked, they feel that a partial victory has been won. The price agreed upon is fifteen cents more for October, twenty-five cents more for November and ten cents more for December than was first offered by the dealers. ACCEPTS PAIGE AGENCY M. A.

Notice I am now prepared to do dressmaking at my home on the West Side* ~-*e ^ -'Jfrs. Christine Brefeld, West McHenry, I1L M. A. Thelen, who for a number of years has conducted a harness establishment in this village, has just accepted the agency for the Paige and Jewett cars. For the time being htf will devout his energies toward the selliifg end of the business only and if things shape themselves to warrant such a move he will erect a modern garage building here nextj^pring. Mr. Thelen, for some time past, has been quite desirous of getting out of the harness business and, while several propositions have been made from auto dealers in the past, he has always? hesitated until the opportunity was presented him by the PaigC people and which he has accepted. He has driven a Paige car himself fojr some time past and in this manner has acquainted himself with its merits. He believes that in securing the ^selling rights of these two ma chines he has secured two of the very best moderately priced cars manufactured today. While he will devote most of his time to auto selling in the fotare, he will at tiie same time maintain his harness shop. For the present he is being assisted in the shop by Robert Patske. It Was Loaded A loaded rifle, found in the barn on the Michael Justen estate premises here, came very near causing a very serious if not fatal accident last Sunday. As it was little Kenneth Jorgensen of Long Lake is suffering from a bullet wound in the upper part of his right arm. The victim of the accident, a guest in the home of Mrs. Mary Powers, was playing about the premises with his companions when the little folks found their way into the barn and thence to the second floor to the hay loft. Here Kenneth spied the weapon. Childlike he ran over, picked up the gun aid in handling same the weapon was discharged with the result as given above. Dr. D. G. Wells was called into attendance and at this writing the victim of the shooting is making a very satisfactory recovery. The ownei; of the gun surely displayed extreme carelessness in not unloading the weapon. Parents should also warn the little folks against danger of handling any sort of fire arms. be stationed, it is quite likely a point centrally located will be decided on. Among the places already mentioned are the village hall and the Illinois Bell Telephone exchange building. Upon its arrival in McHenry local physicians will be asked to acquaint themselves with its operation. /; Altar and Rosary Sodslp ^'" TTie Altar and Rosary society of St. Patrick's church met at the hofbe of Mrs. Peter Doherty on Thursday afternoon of last week, Sept. 28, about eighteen members being present.

Miss Thelen has enjoyed a very fine patronage here during the summer months of the past two years and her many customers along the river and lakes will miss her in another year. Wins Honor For Penmanship It has just been brought to our attention that LeRoy Bickler, eightyear- old son of Mr. and Mrs. A. W. Bickler of this village, was accorded a distinguished honor at the school exhibit held in connection with this year's McHenry county fair. His penmanship won him high honors in the second grade exhibit This is indeed an honor of which he may well feel proud as in winning the distinction he was in competition with sepqnd graders thruout the entire county.

Card of Thanks We take this public manner ef expressing our sincere thanks to the kind neighbors and friends who assisted us during the illness and after the death of our beloved daughter. Also do we wish to extend thanks to the donors of flowers and cflrs at the funeral. Mr. and Mrs. John Degen. Effective October 15, C. M. Bickler acquires a or.e-third interest in the McHenry Sales & Service company. Papers have all been signed and everything is in * readiness for Mr. Bickler's entry into the local business. The McHenry Sales & Service company was established in McHenry by George E. Phalin and Earle Monear late last winter. A short time after launching their project here the company was given the agency for the Studebaker cars as well as White trucks- • Ever since their establishment in McHenry they have occupied quarters in the former brewery building, using the old malt house as a garage and repair shop. Altho cramped for space, the company has enjoyed a very satisfactory business. In fact, it has already outgrown its present quarters. The owners are now planning on incorporating and hope to erect* a modern garage building here early next spring. According to one of the proprietors, who was interviewed by a Plaindealer reporter -the first of the week, the company is ready to build right now, but owing to their desire to get on or near the contemplated cement highway thru this village they are awaiting the location of this thorofare before acquiring the site for their new home. They feel assured that the route for the cement road will be decided by or before spring. > The new garage building will be one of the largest and most modern in the village. Fire-proof material will be used thruout in its construction, while the machinery and equipment will compare very favorably with the best to be found anywhere. Mr. Bickler, during the past two years or more, has been connected with the Central garage at Johnsburg and prior to that time was employed in the engine department of the Hunter boat factory and at the Overton & Cowen garage in this village. He is an expert in his line of work and will, no doubt, prove a valuable acquisition to the McHenry Sales & Service company.
