After a dlaeoanon on the matter the legislative oommittee was instructed to draft up reasons why the bill should be defeated and a copy of this statement be sent to every member of the house as well as to newspapers of the entire state. Mr. Holt, president t>f the association, during an address ' announced that he was able to give to his audience the exact prices as paid to the dairymen who last year sold milk thru the Twin City organization at St. Paul and Minneapolis. According to Mr. Holt's statement the dairymen up there received a net average of $1.80 2-3 per hundred pounds for milk delivered during the year 1922. This is quite a contrast from the claims made by speakers who recently covered the Chicago territory in the interest of the marketing company, that the farmers up there received an average of $2.44. They did receive $2.44, according to Mr. Holt, but" after certain deductions had been made it left the net average at the figure as given above. HOW DOBS THE PUBLIC FEEL ABOUT IT?

The two tickets as filed are aa follows: Progressive ticket, pteaident, Dr. D. G. Wells; trustees, Simon Stoffel, Richard I. Overton and Frank H. Wattles. People's ticket, president, Peter M. Justen; trustees, John Stoffel, Peter H. Weber and Fred C. Felt*. While the men who usually take an active interest in local politics have been working quietly, very little open discussions on village matters have been heard until this week. Now that the two tickets ere on file, there will, no doubt, be plenty of action between now and election day, April 17. The respective backers of the two tickets, altho the time is very short, will, we presume, organise their workers and within a few days have the campaign on In earnest. Dr. D. G.

According io the petitions filed only one contest will be waged this spring, this being in the community district.

Only one ticket has been filed for district No. 16. TWs ticket is headed by J. E. Pufahl, Ben Stilling and Stephen H. Freund. NEW PROJECTORS AND LIGHTING SYSTEM Imtallation ef two of the very latest improved Powers projectors together with an automatic change over has just been completed at the Empire theatre. The automatic change over enables the operator to run a continuous picture without a stop. A new lighting system, on the stage as well as in the auditorium, is also a recent improvement and together the changes make the Empire one of the most complete picture show houses to be found anywhere outside of the larger cities. Owner J. W. Smith is ever keeping abreast of the times and movie fans in this community are truly fortunate in having such a complete picture show house in their midst. FIRST UNIVERSALIST CHURCH What is meant by "The Kingdom of God?" Where did the idea come from, and how did Jesus of Naaareth make use of it ? Why did he begin his parables with the words, "The Kingdom of God is like?" Why does the church proclaim "the Kingdom" today in spite of the prenraleace of the demsary, to co-operate with the American Legion post in this honorable work. C. W..Stenger, as a member of the entertainment committee, expressed regret at the inability to have a speaker on hand for the evening and of the difficulty experienced in the past in getting desired speakers, but ventured to say that his committee would be more active in the future. He announced that plans for the holding of ladies' night, which is to take place at Justen's *hotel on Tuesday everting, April 17, had been practically completed. Arrangements for seven entertainers have also been made and these, together with a sumptuous re-' past and dancing for those who wish to enjoy same, will provide an evening of unusual enjoyment. Among the entertainers will be five musical artist# and two singers. Tickets for the occasion, to which the public in general is invited, were placed on sale that evening and over fifty sold. Many of those in attendance took tickets to sell to their friends and neighbors. In fact, we feel safe in saying that nearly every business house in town is provided with extra tickets and those who have not been approached may provide themselves almost anywhere in town. Judging from the array of talent that is to be brought to MeHenry on this occasion, a real treat is in store for those who turn out and it is the hope and aim of the Community club that all of our people take advantage of this opportunity of meeting together, partaking of the eats, enjoying the program^ and dancing and thus T>ave the way for real community spirit. The tickets are selling at $1.25 in mind that support to such an organization to be present at the village hall. An invitation to be present at this meeting is being extended to players and fans of MeHenry and Johns burg and it is hoped that they will turn out in number*,. Art Meyers, who l*st year successfully managed the MeHenry club, does not expect to be in MeHenry this season and therefore will not be counted as a possible candidate for this year's management provided a team is organized. We have several men in MeHenry who could successfully manage a baseball club. PUBLIC CARD PARTY ' _ _ . QUITE WELL ATTENDED The first Easter at St Patrick's new edifice was celebrated with a solemn high mass last Sunday morning, Rev. M. J. McEvoy, pastor of the church, acted as celebrant; Rev. T. J. Moore of Chicago, deacon; Rev. Joseph of Norwood Park, sub-deacon, and Walter K. Conway of this village, who is a student at the Holy Croes seminary, Notre Dame, Ind., master of ceremonies. This is the first time that a local young man has been thusly honored in MeHenry in many years. The same mass as rendered at the dedication of the new chareh was again sung by the choir last Sunday morning. Beginning tomorrow (Friday) and continuing indefinitely, the exposition of the blessed sacrament will take pfkee on the first Friday of each month, ending with diloHoa at 7:80 in the evening. ORCHESTRA MUSIC AT ST. MARY'S SUNDAY MORNING Worshippers at the late mass at St. Mary's church last Sunday morning were accorded a real musical treat. Hie regular choir music was enhanced by the addition for that special occasion of an eight piece orchestra, the music being the finest ever heard at that church. The personnel of the orchestra follows: Eihist Barbian, violin; A. P. Freund, clarinet; Albert Kuns, saxophone; J. W. Sohaffec, cornet; J. E. Freund, melophone; H. J. Schaffer, trombone; Nick Nett and Jos. J. Miller, bass. The orchestra was under the direction of J. E. Hahswirth. Sister Cancia, a thondy: HMsician, presided at the organ. FNtE DESTROYS FAIR! HOME HOME' or W. E. WHITING CONSUMED SUNDAY MORNING* Fire of unknown origin totally destroyed the large farm home of Wm. E. Whiting early last Sunday morning. The fire was discovered by Mr. Whiting and his wife at about four o'clock when they were aroused by cracking sounds emanating from the kitchen. Not realizing the hour, Mr. Whiting's first thought was that the boys, playing & sort of an April fool joke, had gone down and kindled the ftra in the kitchen stove. After listening for a few moments and not hearing anyone down stain Mr. Whiting went down to make an investigation and to his great surprise and astonishment found that the back of the kitchen was a mass of flames. He immediately aroused the members of the family, while Mrs. Whiting went to the telephone and notified Miss Adda Heimer. Night Operator Doee Good Werk Miss Heimer, the night operator, did excellent work, first notifying the close neighbors and afterwards roused a number of the local people, including the local fire department, and within a surprisingly short time-quite a large crowd of volunteer fire fighters j after the customary holy arrived at the Whiting farm on the,faster vacation.
