Plans have been, perfected for enlarging and greatly improving the Gary State bank building at Cary. Hie bank has enjoyed a splendid growth daring the past few years. In fact, tie business has outgrown its present quarters. # One of the two horses owned and driven by Geo. Bell, Hartland road patrolman, had two of its legs broken one day recently when a machine driven by Mrs. Will White of Hartland drove into the team. It was necessary to shoot the animal. A very high honor was bestowed upon Judge Edward D. ShurtlefT of the McHenry county circuit court last week when Iff.waa appointed a number of the sppallpts court of the third district. The appointment was made by the supreme court of Illinois. Fred C. Nelson, who has the contract for the UBUdfcBg of tho cancik road from Volo thru Lake Zurich to connect up with the Rand read, hopes to have same completed as far as Lake Zurich this fall. The entire stretch should ha completed early nest spring. TheOakwood hotel, located upon the shore of Crystal lake, has been sold by P. H. Leonard to Thomas G. Sexton of Chicago.

Atty. Winkler of Chicago, sent to McHenry from the division of game add fish, expressed hinpetf very much, displeased with the request for another continuance. Ha insisted that the case be tried that day. After several minutes had beqn consumed in arguing the point, Messrs. Blakesley asked the judge to ha excused for a few minutes while they make an attempt-to get their attorney on the phone. This they wore unable to do. On their return to the court they were accompanied by Atty. A. H. Pouse of this village, who asked the court for a continuance of the case, which was finally granted. The case has created more or less interest here and when same is again called is sure to bring forth a big delegation of spectators. Are Seinia* Cadr Fred Miller and John- Oefling, who have had more or leas experience in the carp seining game, are now engaged in the work along the Fox river, having secured their permit to do so some time ago. They made their first "pull in" on Monday morning of this week, but owing to the fact that the net was dry, coupled with a bad' snag, made their first attempt a failure. However, they are not the type of men to let a little thing like this discourage them and are keeping. right on. They expect to seine every foot of Fox river from its mouth to the dam. Men who are familiar with the stream tell us that it ,la filled with German carp. Volo Road Now Open The cement highway between Volo a ltd Wauconda is now open to travel, the barriers having been removed the first of the week. This gives the traveling public a continuous cement road from Volo to Lake Corners, a point between Wauconda and Lake Zurich. We are told that the contractor is now supplied with a sufficient amount of cement to complete the entire stretch to the Rand read, but it is not likely that the satire job will be completed this fall. However, the stretch should be finished early next spring and thus give the traveling public a continuous cement road from" Volo to Chicago. Ford Coupe Turns Over While on his way home from Ringwood in a Ford coupe on Monday noon, Waiter Rider, employod at the Pearl Fisheries, met with quite painful injuries when the machine suddenly left the road and turned a complete somersault. Hie top of the machine is a complete wreck. Disconnection of the radius rod is said to have caused the aoeident The injured man was attended by Dr. IX G. Wells of this village. Fortunately no bones were broken. The accident took place near the Wm. Toqfaa farm between this village and Ringwood. Given Wert Chicago Agency Loaris S toff el, who during the past spring and summer has driven a Standard oil truck for H. H. Fay, the local agent, is now located at West Chicago, where he has been given the Standard oil agency. Mr. S toff el informs us that the West Chicago field is in a more or lass run down condition, but expects, with the application of a bit of energy, he will be able tc rebuild same, at least this is his aim Mr. Stoffel took over the West Chicago agency two weeks ago. wm Be Fortunate to Get In onSpttng Letting--Oaadeta nation Proceedings to Be Started Bids for 102 miles of paving and 86% miles of heavy grading are to be opened at Springfield on Tuesday, Oct. 31, but owing to fact that one property owner has refused to accept the proposition as made to him by officials now at work securing the right-of-way between Volo and McHenry that stretch of road will not be included in the fall letting. In an interview with Sufeprvisor S. Hi Frerind, on Tuesday of this #eek the writer was told that he and his co-workers made this particular owner an offer which they considered not only a fair but generous 6ne and since the offer has been flatly refused there remains 1but W avenue in which to secure the desired right and that is by means of condemnation proceedings. N According to the McHenry -supervisor most of the property owners along this section of route 20 signed off the rights willingly and appeared pleased at the opportunity to do so, and it really seems a shame that one man should step in the way and thus delay the preliminary woffe^in aur good foads program. Mr. Freund informs us that fie his tried every way to get things shaped up so as to get in on the fall letting. He fully realizes , the public's disappointment and the very best that We may now expect is a letting sometime next spring. The grading lettings, according to our understanding, is for roads to be paved next year. Thus it will be seen that a letting of the Volo road wqjild mean that grading work could have been started this fall and thus get the road fn shape for an early paving next year. Under the present conditions, however, the best that we may now expect is a spring letting, which will mean that the road will be closed the greater part of next summer. Officials have lived in the hope that their labors could have been completed in time so as to get this stretch of road in the coming letting and thus assure the public of a paved road by next summer, but as this now seems out of the question the people of this community must be content with the letting of section 15, route 20, which includes that stretch of the McHenry- Woodstock road lying between-the Math. Glossen farm and Thompson's corners. This stretch is to be paved next year. • DID YOU REGISTER - If Nat, You Have One More Opportunity To'Do So H. H. King's Ability aa Goff Ground Expert Rwogaiaed That the golf course of €h« Meftenry Country club is becoming widely known as is the ability of H. JL King, who laid out the course, is seen in. the fact that the above named gentleman has received applications from four new clubs to perform similar services for them. Members of these clubs have played over the McHenry course and were very much impressed with its beauty.^ Mr. King is now superintending the construction of a course for the Shew®mi Country club near Sheldon, Watseka and Milford, 111., and expects to take up his work on the others just as soon as they have completed their leasee. This is indeed considerable of an honor for the president, of the local club and we feel certain that he will take just as great an interest in laying out the four courses- as he exercised in planning the local links. While speaking of the local course it may be of interest to ttoe member* to learn that the miniature plaster models of the traps and bunkers for the course have been completed and are now in the hands of the caretaker, Mr. Purvey. The massive entrance arch to the grounds has also been completed and appropriately lettered. Before the opening of another season we predict that M<?Henry will be able to boast of one of the finest country clubs to be found in' this section of the state.

The trip is being made in the former's car. Altho neither of the young men know just what they will do in the western city, it is quite likely that the former will enter the Ford assembling plant in that city, he having been employed «at the Ford service station here during the past summer and therefore is already quite familiar with the work. Mr. Schiessle is making the trip in the hope of benefitting his health, ha being afflicted with asthma, from which he has suffered mora or leas for a number of years. Editor Crane, If You Please George N. Crane, foreman in the office of the McHenry Journal, a paper which was published in McHenry a quarter of a century ago by Andrew O.

The Alden tournament was completed over the Chapel Hill course at Howell's Villas. Carl Anderson came in for high honors for the afternoon, registering a net score of 89, while his handicap brought this figure down to 79. For his efforts he wak rewarded with the first prize, constating of a half dozen golf balls. Leo Stilling waa aacond low for the afternoon, hanging up a net score of 96, while his handicap gave him a mark of 74. His prize consisted of four golf balls. W. L. Howell came in for high honors over the Chapel Hill course with a net score of 41. Prise, a pair of golf socks. F. A. Bohlander's handicap score of 32 over the Chapel Hill course entitled him to the fourth prise, also a pair of golf socks. The fifth and sixth, or the consolation prizes, one golf ball each, went to Albert M. Barbian and Peter M. Justen, respectively. The former's handicap score over the McHenry course being «S, while the latter's handicap score over the Chapel Hill course was 45. Considering the fact that this was the first attempt at the game for a number who participated in the event the high* scores are considered good. It was also the first trip over the Chapel Hill course for most of the players. The ,game is rapidly gaining favor among the McHenry people and, while this is the first year at the sport for most of the players, the community is certain to devejpp some ajxrt players in another year or two. Immediately after the last foursome had finished all gathered at the Chapel Hill club house, where luncheon was served, followed by the distribution of prizes and a social dance. The Fox River Four supplied the music for the dancers. Those participating in tin tournament and the scorea registered each follow: . * •McH. a H. Rithard Yates, congreasttaa at large; Frank R.

The claims are for work of developing and ever expanding organization. The appeal is not for bigger salaries for the officers, for their small salaries have been cut within the year, but for support in carrying forward the work of helping the poor, feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, rescuing the unfortunate girl, reclaiming the prodigal, nursing and caring for tha neglected child, reaching the unreached and saving the lost.
