Metzen post, American Legion, of Harvard are progressing rapidly and if enthusiasm and hard work on the part of the legionnaires and Members of the Legion auxiliary can bring success to the undertaking, then this year's affair will, be the biggest and best home-talent festival ever put on by any organization in these parts. The carnival grounds, as in previous years, will be at the intersection of Ayer, Division and Diggins streets. The space around the fountain will be converted^into a dancing floor and the various booths will occupy Ayer street south of the fountain. All the concessions on the grounds will be operated "by the Harvard Leg- ion post and no outside enterprises will be brought into the city. Earl Jack's .Legion orchestra of Elkhorn will . furnish the music for wing on all three nights of the carnival. This orcrestra is composed of artists from the Holton band instrument factory of Elkhorn and this fact alone is a guarantee of . their musical ability. Concerts by Holton Band Of Elkhorn The Harvard legionnaires have arranged a program of free entertainment that alone will be worth making the trip to Harvard. The headliner among the free attractions this year will be a band concert every night from 7:30 to 8:30 by Holton's Harmony band of Elkhorn. The Holton band is so well known thruout the middle west that no further comment is necessary. Beside the band concert, boxing and wrestling bouts will be staged, all free of charge. Three Touring Cars Given Away Three touring cars, fully equipped-- Ford, Star and Overland--will be given away during the carnival, one car each night. The drawings for the cars will be held at 11 o'clock and the Ford will be given away on Thursday night, June 15, followed by the Star on Friday night and the drawing for the Overland on Saturday night will wind up the festivities. GOLF BY JUDGE CHAS. P. -BARNES The Chicago Golfer in its May issue published an article from the*pen of County Judge Charles P. Barnes of Woodstock. In speaking of the judge the Chicago Golfer said: "The game fascinates him to such an extent that he practices diligently to master the intricacies of the sport, which has been termed 'The Science of a Lifetime.' For the benefit of the readers of the Chicago Golfer, the judge has kindly contributed his fdeas on the approach, which, in his opinion, is one of the master shots." At the request of the editor, Judge Barnes contributes to this paper the following advice to beginners: I would like to impress two things upon alpwho are just starting in golf, and that is: First, that you cannot master this game in an entire life time, and second, that if you wish to become and forever remain a member of the great army of dub golfers, don't ever go to a professional for lessons, and don't ever practice. By going to a professional and getting started right, followed by a reasonable amount- of practice, inside EDWARD CAREY DIED SATURDAY FUNERAL TOOK PLACE FROM ST.

Mr. McCabe, at the time of giving up work on Nov. 15, 1922, wm employed at the Terra Cotta factory. Thinking that a complete rest would restore his former good health, the deceased gave up work at the big plant to take things easy. However, instead of bringing about the desired result his condition became more alarming. As a last resort he was taken to Elgin for treatment, where he passed away as stated above. The deceased was born in County Galway, Ireland, on March 16, 1886, and arrived in Chicago nineteen years ago. In 1910 hea enlisted in the U. S. marine service for a term of four years, but on account of ill health was given his honorable discharge after a service of two years and eight months. During his short- stay in the marine service he showed himself to be a good soldier and before his retirement' was made corporal. He was united in marriage, to Miss Mary Gibbs of this city on June 22, 1917, who with his ' parents and six brothers are left to survive. His parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas McCabe, together with one brother, James, still make their home over in Ireland, while John, Joseph, Hugh and Michael reside in the East, the sixth brother being Patrick McCabe of this city. The funeral took place from St. Pat rick's Catholic churqji here at 9:30 o'clock on Monday morning of this week with Rev. M. J. McEvoy officiating. interment was made in St. Pat rick's cemetery. The bereaved widow and other surviving relatives have the sympathy of their many friends in this community. The Decoration day crowd in McHenry was a great deal larger than had been! anticipated. Hotel owners and all others who derive benefits from the traveling public never look for big business when a holiday cuts in the middle of the week, but yesterday proved an exception, and as a result those who cater to the travelers report good business.

Fisher, who some years ago acted as head of the McHenry school system, is still climbing and his many friends thruoUt this community will be pleased, we are s,ure, to read the following article as taken from the May 15 issue of the Rock Island Argus: "Emerson C. Fisher, nine years superintendent of the Rock Island city schools, has been notified of his election as superintendent of the Peoria schools. "The action was taken last night and the board notified Mr. Fisher that the formal offer and his contract would not be forwarded until the latter part of the week. His acceptance will be madd upon the receipt of that notice. "As superintendent of the Peoria schools, Mr. Fisher will have 26 grade schools, 12,000 pupils and 400 teachers under his supervision. The contract for the first year is $7,500. This is $1,000 increase over his Rock Island contract. "Mr. Fisher came to Rock Island from Dundee, 111., where he had been school superintendent. He had been prominent in state superintendents' organization and is rcognized as one of the leading educators in this section of Illinois. Two years ago he was district governor of Rotaiy. "More than two months ago the Peoria schools entered into correspondence with Mr. Fisher relative to the superintendency and a score of prospective appointees were inter viewed. "Mr. Fisher notified the Rock Island board of the Peoria offer and his contract as superintendent for the city schools of this city during the coming year was held up pending the Peoria offer." tives.
