Edgar Nya. A new summer home is now under construction for Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Sutton of Chicago at Emerald Park. The foundation is already completed and it is the'hope of the contractor, Stephen H. Freund, to have the home ready for occupancy within the course of the next two or three weeks. The home will be occupied by the owner and his family. Mrs. Sutton, who is daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. J. J us ten of this city, with the children, will occupy the home during the entire summer season, while Mr. Sutton expects to enjoy the place regularly over the week ends and during ib«| .location period. " CHILDREN'S DAY Children's day will be observed at the church services Sunday. At the eleven o'clock service the sermon will be "The Child and Religion." The program, entitled "The Secret Whispered to Children," will be given at 7:30 in the evening. The church school will meet at ten and the Epworth League will hold its evening service at 6:30. USING PORCH FOR DINING HALL Mrs. John Niesen, proprietor of Niesen's restaurant on Riverside Drive, is now using the sun parlor of her home as a dining porch. The restaurant is proving too small to accommodate the week end crowds. She has also installed a new gas stove and made other improvements on her property that greatly facilitate the work in caring for her ever growing patronage. The first outing since tils organization of the McHenry Boy Scout troop is being enjoyed by the outfit at Lake Defiance southeast of this city. The boys went into camp there the first of the week and, judging from reports, they are having the time of their young lives. The outfit is fully equipped and the scout routine is being gone thru daily. Later on in the season, probably some time in August, Scout Master E. B. Evans is planning a trip down to Starved Rock. The membership of the local unit now numbers forty-two, which is ten over a full troop. Indications point to the fact that this number can and will be easily doubled within due course of time. The local scout master has also been successful in the- organization of a full troop of junior scouts. This outfit is made up of boys ranging from seven to twelve years of age. In spite of the fact that the juniors have been organized but about two weeks, the youngsters are taking to the scout work in a manner which is proving a great delight to Mr. Evans, who is giving them a great deal of his attention. "The juniors are getting the drills more readily than their elder brothers," was the declaration of the local head when interviewed Wednesday. Three outfits of Elgin scouts will l>e in camp here three days next week. The boys will arrive on Monday and remain until Wednesday afternoon, when they will pull up stakes for a gypsy jaunt to the Dells of Wisconsin. Some of the local scouts will undoubtedly accompany the Elgin lads on the Wisconsin trip. \ The Elgin scouts will pitch their tents on the flats adjacent to Boone creek in McHenry and, according to word from Elgin, the outfit will consist of from 140 to 200 boys. McHenry will extend the visitors a rousing welcome. ROAD CEMENT ARRIVING ALMOST DAILY BOAT R1BE & DANCE TO BE GIVEN BY COMMUNITY CLUB JUNE 26 The cement for the McHenry-Volo contract is arriving almost daily and if the shipments continue during the next two days as they have been arriving for a week past all of the cement for the big job should be in by next Saturday evening. One carload of steel is also expected this week. Hie arrival of sand and gravel will not start until actual construc tion work has begun. The company will test out a gravel pit near this city and should the gravel as contained therein test up to state re quirements the chances are that this material will be obtained here instead of being shipped in. However, as a test has not as yet been made, it is hard to say just what sort of gravel will be found here. According to word which reaches McHenry, prelim inary work at Lake Bluff is progressing very favorably and that actual pouring of cement is to start there next week. Mr. Remour, who has been in charge of the unloading here, expects to be called back to Lake Bluff the fore part of next week. ACTS AS TOASTMASTER AT STEVENS POINT Rone E. Bobb, who during the school term just closed has been a member of the McHenry high school faculty, was honored at Stevens Point, Wis., on Wednesday evening of last week when he was made toastmaster at the annual banquet and reunion of the Alumni association of the State Normal school held at Hotel Whiting in that ctyy. The occasion was attended by 128. At the business session following the toasts, Mr. Bobb was elected to the presidency of the association. CALLED TO CANADA TO ATTEND FATHER'S FUNERAL Dr. D. G. Wells was called to Montreal, Can., last week on account of the serious illness and death of his aged father, Samuel William Wells, who passed away in that city on Wednesday, June 6. The deceased had been in declining health for some time past. He was eighty-two years of age and is survived by his wife, one daughter, pho also resides at Montreal, and one son, Dr. D. G. Wells of this city. The funeral took place last Friday. THREE MASSES ON SUNDAYS Three masses are now being read each Sunday morning at both St. Mary's and St. Patrick's churches. The influx of summer visiters and tourists has made this an absolute necessity. The new summer schedule of services will, no doubt, work out very satisfactorily. Thus masses at St. Mary's on Sunday mornings are at 6:30, 8:0fr and 10:15. At St. Patricks at 6:45 8:15 ami 10:0ft MARRIED Miss Helen Cobb, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Cobb of Chicago, but residents of McHenry a few years ago, was married to Mr. Robert Houlihan of Chicago on June 6. BOAT RIDE, RADIO CONCERT, ORCHESTRA AND DANCE--EV ERYONE INVITED A boat ride and dance, under the auspices of the McHenry Community club will take place on Tuesday evening, June 26, and if the efforts of the committee members now working out the details are successful the occasion should prove the biggest thing of the kind ever attempted locally. It was thru the generosity of Everett Hunter, Sr., president of the Everett Hunter Boat company of this city, that the big undertaking was made possible, Mr. Hunter offering tq the Community club for this particular night the free use of as many of his passenger boats as will be required to carry the crowd. The object of the boat ride and dance is to raise funds with which to defray the expense of advertising this community as a summer resort district. As stated in these columns a few weeks ago, a newspaper advertising campaign has already been launched and, while the business men and others of the city and community have been very liberal in donating towards this fund, the total fell short of covering the expense of a followup campaign and other advertising which the club hopes to do this year. The Community club is also going to considerable expense in renting grounds and preparing a tourists' camp in Conway's grove adjacent to this city. It is the desire of the club to place this community on par as a summer resort with any to be found in this section and no pains nor expense are to be spared in carrying out these plans. The tickets for the boat ride and dance will be sold at $l.d0 each, which all must agree is very reasonable, and all who can arrange to go can well afford this exceptional treat at so low a cost. The committee in charge of the plans and preparations for this big social event plan on the employment of young ladies and Boy Scouts to dispose of these tickets and in order to create enthusiasm and real interest among those who will sell them wellworth prises will be .offered. Complete details regarding the selling at these tickets and the prizes to be awarded will be made known on ap plication to the club's secretary, Peter M. Justen, any time after next Saturday morning, when the tickets will be ready for distribution. The committee has also decided on the inauguration of an advertising campaign in the neighboring towns and if every member of the committee as well as community dub will give the matter just a bit of their time and co-operation 1,000 tickets can easily be sold. As a further inducement to the purchaser of a ticket, Mr. Hunter also agrees to honor same on any trip of his boats during the 1923 season with the exception of Saturdays and Sundays. Thus it will be seen that if a purchaser cannot arrange to make the trip on Tuesday evening, June 26, njf/ of the ticket may be made any time during the seas cm. Arrangements have already been made with the Fox River Four of McHenry for the dance music and the committee also hopes to make arrangements whereby the McHenry band will accompany the excursionists. W. L. Howell, of the local Exide Battery station, will equip the big boat with an up-to-date radio receiving set, which means that the passengers will be kept informed as to what the outside world is doing on that particular night. No doubt there are many in McHenry and vi cinity who have never yet "Had the pleasure of "listening in" and here is. your opportunity to do so. Just think of it, a boat ride, radio concert, orchestra music on board boat and possibly band music and a dance, all for one dollar. Did you ever hear of such a bargain bill? Up to the time of writing this article on Wednesday afternoon hall arrangements for the holding of the FIRST FIREMEN'S DANCE TO TAKE PLACE AT THE POX PAVILION JUNE 20 Arrangements for the first annual firemen's dance, under the auspices and for the benefit of the McHenry volunteer fire department, are practically completed. The event has been set for the Fox pavilion near this city on Wednesday evening of next week, June 20. Tickets for the dance have been on sale for several weeks past and, judging from the advance sale, a recordbreaking crowd is quite certain to attend. Jimmy's Society orchestra, direct from an engagement at the Balaban & Katz Chicago theatre, has been engaged and will furnish the music. The orchestra will be in personal charge of Jimmy, who promises to bring to McHenry a musical organization second to none in the country. Fire Chief Peter W. Frett has given over considerable of his time to arranging for the coming event as have the other members of the department and it is up to the public to show their appreciation of the company's efforts by the purchase of one or more tickets. The net proceeds of the occasion will be placed into a fund which later on is to be used in the purchase of up-to-date fire fighting equipment and since the cause is one which interests every property owner in and around McHenry there is no reason why the venture should not be given very liberal support. The fire fighters are planning on making the occasion an annual affair and in this manner keep their treasury in such a condition as to be able to cope with any and all emergencies. Now don't forget the place and date. Purchase a ticket and by your attendance show the boys that you are with them. Dance tickets aa| selling at $1.00 each. Bttr CELEBRATION TO BE •ELD AT WOODSTOCK Peter Umathum post, No. 412, American Legion, will give its fourth annual Fourth of July celebration at Woodstock. This year's program is bigger, • better and brighter than ever before. Everything conceivable for the entertainment of the public is to be provided. A large carnival with numerous riding devices, shows, stands, etc., a $1,000 display of fireworks, motordrome, horse races, horseshoe tournament, big parade in the morning, free attractions, etc. One of the biggest events of the day will be the baseball game between McHenry and Algonquin at 3:00 in the afternoon for a purse of $200.00. A Jewett touring car is to be given away in the evening and tickets on the car are already in the field and may be secured from any member of the post. Those who have attended previous celebrations in Woodstock know the record of Peter Umathum post in giving everybody a dollar's worth of fun for every dollar spent. And the program this year, as stated above, is far better than any that has been given so far. Come to Woodstock July 4 and bring the entire family with you. Woodstock will welcome you gladly. ADS BRINGING MANY INQUIRIES The secretary of the McHenry Community club, Peter M. Justen, is being kept very busy answering inquiries received as the result of the Chicago Tribune advertising. As previously stated in these columns, the beet restilts may be expected only when everyone of our citizens will give Mr. Justen their full co-operation. If you have a spare room to rent by the day, week or season, kindly let yourself be known to the secretary. Those who have cottages for sale or rent would also do Mr. Justen and the club a great favor by making this known to the secretary. Co-operation wins every time, so let's all help this campaign along and thus get the most out of it. ATTEND FUNERAL OF RELATIVI Mrs. N. J. Justen and son, Peter M. Justen, left McHenry last Friday night for Adams, Minn., where they attended the funeral of Mrs. Peter Freund.
