Insist upon McHenry Ice Cream, manufactured in McIJeary and you are„assured of the best Work on the construction of another oil service station has been started by Wm. Schaefer, local agent for t^p Star motor cars, on a strip of land recently purchased of Frank Hughes and located just east of Fox river, a short distance from the approach to the bridge. Two lots were acquired by Mr. Schaefer a short time ago and, ac cording to his plans, the property is to be utilized as an oil service station and later on there will also be erected thereon a modern garage building. Excavation work for the two large 1050 gallon tanks was started the first of the week and it is the hope of Mr. Schaefer to have the station in operation by Sunday. When a Plain dealer reporter visitecl the site on Tuesday afternoon he found the workmen experiencing more or less trouble in their excavating work on account of cave-ins and also water from near by springs. However, they were determined to complete the job in the shortest possible time, and with thiB as their aim the men were working like demons. At the present time Mr. Schaefer is at the West Side Service station, where he maintains his headquarters as agent for the Durant and Star cars and also looks after the oil service station for the Home Oil company. The garage space at this station is very limited and it was for this reason that Mr. Schaefer decided to make the purchase east of the bridge. He has not as yet fully decided as to his garage plans. This project may be set aside until next year, altho he may conclude to erect temporary quarters for the time being. - -u McHENRY ICE CREAM FACTORY C. U[NTI, PROP.

The star appears as a romance stricken girl who reads the "best sellers" for their love scenes at the same time that she is tied to a prosaic, practical husband, Hector, who still fears the memory of his former rival, Wales. The memory is a blessed one for Wales is supposed to have gone on a tour of exploration to South America land to have died there, ' But it developes that Wales is not dead. He bursts in one evening cocksure, egotistical and self-centered and tells marvelous stories of his explorations. Phyllis is greatly impressed, however, but Hector counteracts his impression by giving away the secret he knew all along, that the report of Wales' death was simply a huge publicity hoax to enhance the inventor's fame and advertise his forthcoming novel. In turn Wales accuses Hector of taking advantage*, of the situation to marry Phyllis. It impresses the wife obviously and she finds she cannot be happy any longer with Hector.

The authorities were not notified, as the driver of the car effectually escaped the hold-up, which occurred about for miles outside of Woodstock. Metchler, who is a collector for a large grocery firm in Chicago, had been attending to business matters at McHenry during the day and had collected approximately $1,500, most of which was in checks, but which comprised between $300 and $400 in currency. Because of the lack of accommodations at McHenry and the fact that he wished to work Woodstock early Tuesday morning, he left McHenry about eleven o'clock that evening bound for this city. Just after coming down Snyder's hill he noticed a dark shape climbing the steep embankment of the graded road and the hold-up artist shouted, "Stop, hands up!"
