Incidental solos, duets and quartets from the best song literature lend pleasing variety to the program. One or more readings, such as a sketch from Sir James Barrie's "Quality Street," give further diversion without departing from the superior quality of the Montague program.

At St. Patrick's Church Hall, Saturday Evening, Oct. 13 than one of the recent conventions. Another Sunday school specialist who will bring inspiration and help to the convention is Rev. E. H. Koehler of Normal, 111. Mr. Koehler will be remembered by many who attended the state convention at Aurora as one of the speakers there. Our Sunday school association workers were shocked to hear of the death of one of their number last week. Mr. Wm. Sager, county adult superintendent, died suddenly at his home in Marengo last Thursday. This quiet, unassuming man will be greatly missed by those who remain to carry on the work without him. It "was a pleasure to work with' him. The tragedy of loss casts a shade of gloom upon the coming convention plans, but even now the memory of his earnestness and quiet loyalty calls for more serious devotion and solemn consecration of all our energies and resources to united effort in the cause of religious education. 3\ ADDITII Work on tl Wauconda idly.

Burkhart & Son, Harvard agents for the Chevrolet cars, have purchased the Harvard garage building in that city, which will hereafter be their show place and headquarters. The city of Crystal Lake is also planning a special election to vote a bond issue which is to pay for a new fire truck, employ an engineer to establish grade and curb lines and also to take care of the present indebtedness. The road construction gang which is to build the cement road thru Grayslake arrived there last week and with good weather, the contractor hopes to lay at least & small stretch of the road this fall. They will have to go some to do it. Charles Hawkins, prominent farmer residing near Gurnee, who attacked Mrs. Bethia Abernathy, superintendent at the Sheridan Road sanitarium one evening last week and then attempted suicide by cutting his throat with a pocket knife, was ordered to the Elgin hospital for the insane at a hearing in the Lake county court at Waukegan last Saturday.

Something new in passenger trans portation is being tried out by the Chicago & Northwestern railway. At Milton recently people were surprised to see a single passenger coach come in from the north on the rails, stop and continue southward. These motor coaches are being ^tried out with the idea of using them on branches and other short runs for more frequent present to help make the day one long to be remembered. Of her two children living, only Mrs. Alsena S. Chapell of Chicago was present, Mrs. L. *H. Owen of Cushing, Okla., being unable to attend. A chicken dinner was served at one o'clock, which was greatly enjoyed by all. The remainder of the afternoon was spent in music, singing and games. A continuous letter was written to Mrs. Owen, each one present writing a line .telling her of the jolly time they were having, but it being saddened by her not being with them. "Grandma Smith," as fche is known to so many in this community, received a great many beautiful gifts, including potted flowering plants, ferns, roses and many friendly greeting cards, all being thoughts of love for her. Pictures of'the group and of the four generations present were taken to help recall this day in years to come. Those present at this happy g-atherof Mcyou intend seeing me, call me up a week ahead.

Telephone 218 < Dm Plaindsaler for mwi. ir FIRST UNIVERSALIST CHURCH How would you like to be a miracle worker? To heal the "sick, restore sight to the blind, turn weakness into strength, vanquish powerful foes at one blow, master difficult situations by mere personal presence, create or destroy by the simple will to have it so --such things interest us in spite of ourselves. And they should. For ttiey do not belong altogether to the realm of fancy. They are real possibilities-- or else we sometimes do the impossible. Whichever way it is, we have marvelous powers we seldom use and some of us never even dream that we possess them, tho their use might bring us wealth and happiness. I shall have more to say on this subject next Sunday morning, for I am going to speak to you from the pulpit at 11:00 o'clock on "Miracles We All May Perform." The music and every feature of the hour's program will be good. A happy band of children meet at 10:00 o'clock for Sunday school, and while those of the younger group are invited to the church at ten, those of more mature years are assyred of a royal welcome at eleven. And the day will be brighter for all who come. John M. Grimes, Minister. New stock bf wall paper at Erickson's .
