The thought of a community club was born at Marengo during the late World war at a time when the people of that enterprising community were called upon to raise a fund for the Red Cross. After the matter had been given some careful thought and consideration by some of the leading citizens of that city it ^as finally decided to hold a big dinner, to which an invitation should be extended to every man, woman and child in that city and surrounding territory. Arrangements were made for the use of a new Ford garage building which was just being completed at the time and the dinner was held at that place, served and the Red Cross drive put over with a bang. Right there and then the men assembled, struck with the happy thought of organizing a Community club, with the result that Marengo now lays claim to one of the most active organizations of the kind to be found in McHenry county. While their club was organized chiefly for social purposes, it has, during its existence,' sponsored many an event which has added to the civic development of that city. The speaker also cited a number of obstacles which confronted the club right from the offset, foremost among these being the existence of cliques. However, the speaker ventured, all of these obstacles have now been removed, with the result that their public dinners and dances are thoroly enjoyed by all classes. He suggested, that an effort should be made to increase the membership of the McHenry organization by getting the men of the city together. Hie excursion boat ride would be a fine place to catch them and with a real live soliciting committee many of those not now members of the organization could be signed up that night, the speaker proffered. While the dinners and dances are enjoyed, by men, women and children alikg^ the Marengo club also stages an occasional stag, which also assists very materially in keeping the organization intact. Their hall is a spacious one and just for a change indoor sports, such as indoor baseball and basket ball, are staged there by teams from the club's membership. These things also assist in maintaining an interest and, taken as a whole, Marengo has an organization which really DOES THINGS. "Give the members something and they will turn out" was the speaker's declaration and he knows from experience whereof ke speaks. Mr. Woodard also expressed himself as favorably impressed with the advertising proposition, .with the beauties of our city, our river and summer resort distict, with our golf course and the many other natural attractions which are to be found here, and in concluding urged the members of the club to go after the business which is sure to be attracted to McHenry thru the beauties which nature has given us. "You have the river, the bathing, fishing, golf grounds, what more could one wish for," the speaker declared, and took his seat r.mid a very generous applause. Albert L. Johnson of the Marengo Republican-News, who accompanied the speaker of the evening to McHenry, was also called upon for a few remarks and responded by expressing his pleasure on being present at the dinner and meeting, complimented the members of the club on their public spirit and progressiveness and suggested that, in addition to advertising McHenry thru the columns of the metropolitan press, he did not believe it a bad idea to do some advertising in McHenry county, as he felt certain that there are quite a large number of people over in his section of the county who were not aware of the beauties to be found along our river and lakes and that thru publicity many of these people could be attracted to McHenry for trips thru our beautiful resort country. Before the motion to adjourn was made, it was announced that the next meeting of the club would take place on Tuesday evening, June 5. This may be in the form of a river and lakes trip, altho nothing definite was decided. The members of the house .committee acfe now working out a plan for the meeting and due notice of same will be given either thru the columns of The Plaindealer or by post card. A rising vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Hunter in appreciation of his very generous offer of the use of his boats as also to the visitors of the*evening, Messrs. Woodard and Johnson of Marengo. The pMeting then adjourned. IN AUTO ACCIDENT Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Koeppe, who rer side on the west shore of Fox river, north of this city, are recovering from more or lesd painful injuries as received a short time ago when their automobile in which they were driving into Chicago was struck by another machine in the hands of a careless driver. Mr. and Mrs. Koeppe were more or less injured and bruised and how they escaped more serious injury is hard to understand. The Ford touring car in which they were driving was damaged to the extent of more than $200. Chicago officials are doing everything within their power to cure this careless and reckless driving and yet conditions have become so bad that one is almost in constant danger, no matter what care may be exercised in £xide BATTER IE5 At an age when many batteries are in the scrap-heap, an % Exide will be giving you vigorous service.
