EDWARD HOULIHAN TALKS / - TO MCHENRY KNIGHTS &• fine delegation of Knights of Columbus of McHenry council gathered at their hall here last Thursday evening to listen to a most inspiring talk as presented by State Deputy Edward Houlihan of Chicago. The meeting was pronounced one of the best held in some time. Besides the principal speaker of the evening, Edward Saritfe <rf Chicago, an entertainer of no mean aMity, kept the gathering holding their sides for more than a half hour with short stories. PUBLIC CARD PARTY lie members of the Altar and Rosary society of St. Patrick's Catholic church will hold a public card party at K. of C. hall on next Thursday evening, Jan. 3. Cards and bnnco will be played and served. A cordial * invitation tend the general public to » EMPIRE THJBA' DOO ENTRANCE McHenry's community Christmas tree and program for 19d! have HfcM entered into the pages of local as the biggest and best undertaking of the kind ever attempted here. The event, which brought joy to the hearts of scores of kiddies of thia inanity, took place at the Empire theatre last Thursday evening and the reason that there weren't more present to witness the happy spectacle was because of the fact that every foot of the big theatre was taken up. A number of older folks, who arrived late, were unable to gain entrance. According to a very conservative estimate more than 1,000 people were ixt attendance. The big troe, in all its festive splendor, occupied a commanding place in the front part of the building near the stage. To make more room in the auditor-" ium more than 160 of tin little folk* occupied places of vantage on the stage, while another two hundred occupied the space in front of the stage. Hie splendid spirit which prevailed among the big audience and especially the joy manifested by the children j was truly a sight to behold, to say nothing of those whose efforts made this festive occasion possible. The very appropriate cantata, •Then Santa daus Listens In," was vaiy ably presented by a cast of older folks of the community, assisted by the children. The stage settings-were in perfect harmony with the cantata as rendered, while the musical numbers were all very pleasing. Bernard Newman appeared in the role of Santa Claus, Mra. Vaughan Jones as Mrs. Santa Claus, Miss Mildred Welch as Mother Goose, Ralph Clemens as Mr. Robinson, Miss Harriett Bobb as mother and Richard Stenger as the radio agent! Richard Stenger, aa the radio agent, waa some time In Interesting Santa Ckpa in a radio outfit, but after the kind Old gentleman had "listened in" to the stories which the newsboys had to relate he was convinced. The special numbers as coming over the radio were very well rendered. One of the radio numbers was presented by the children, while another, announced as coming from station WMAQ and presented by a mixed chorus of this city, was well received. Preceding the contnta vary pleasing numbers were contributed by the M»v Henry high school- orchesta, the high school glee club and Mr. Tallmadga, who rendered two flute solos, accompanied by Miss Harriett 6obb on the piano. The solo numbers by Mrs. Vaughan Jones, Mildred Welch and Harriett Bobb, Bernard Newman and Richard Stenger and the chorus numbers by the children brought forth rounds of applause during the action of the* cantata. The McHenry high school orchestra, which made its first public appearance on this occasion, -came in for much well deserved comment. Altho thia musical organization has been in existence only a few short months, their Work proved a revelation and we predict that in due time McHenry will ba able to boost of one of the finest school orchestras to be found anywhere. Mrs. C. W. Goodell, who may justly be called the mother of the Mo- Henry community; Christmas, addressed the audience briefly prior to the opening of the evening's entertainment, during which she expressed the hope that they would overlook any short coming that might transpire during the evening and especially withhold criticism regarding the gifts as her committee had done its very best considering the funds with which it had to work. At the close of the program the gift distribution committee was called forward Mid from then on the little folks gave real vent to their inward feeling of joy, and with the completion of the distribution of the treats and gifts came to an end McHenry*s 1UI community Christmas. Owing to the fact that the turnout of little folks by far surpassed all expectations, the committee was obliged to go out that evening and purchase additional gifts as an assurance that there would be plenty to go round. Mrs. Goodell, the workers, those who contributed financially, those who took part in the evening's progam and all others who in any way contributed to the success of the affair are to be highly commended and it is The Plaindealer's hope that McHenry s community Christmas has come to stay.

TO SURYEY ELM AND WAUKEGAN ROAD ROUTE Word from the district engineer's office at Elgin is to the effect that surveyors will be sent to McHenry very shortly for the purpose of making the permanent survey on the Elm street and Waukegan road route which was recently chosen by the state highway department as the one to be used by route No. 20 in passing thru the city of McHenry. The work to be done by these surveyors will not take long and it now looks as if-Nthe city council will be able to get busy-yery shortly in their endeavor to secure the right-of-way for the proposed route. While «ome are of the opinion that the board will experience some obstacles in securing these rights, others who are doing everything within their power to push the proposition, feel that all matters pertaining to this work will be amiably adjusted in ample time to allow the state department to include the McHenry stretch in this winter's letting, 8:19 PASSENGER ACCORDING TO Altho no official information is obtainable, a persistent rumor which has been circulated within the past week or more is to the effect that Mc- Henry's best morning passenger train, the 8:19, is to be temporarily discontinued early next year. The rumor has greatly aroused the business men of McHenry since it first gained circulation and it is our understanding that petitions are already being prepared for signatures in which the C. & N. W. Railroad company will be asked to reconsider and maintain the excellent services which the people of this section have been privileged to enjoy these many years. MARY ELIZABETH BOST-^| WICK CALLED BY DEATH Mrs. Mary Elizabeth Bostwick, mother of L. P. Bostwick, in charge of the Pearl Fisheries near this city, passed away at the home of her son last Friday.

The first of these wards takes up the central portion of the city, the second most of the portion formerly known as the West Side and the third ward most of that portion formerly known as the East Side or bid town. Starting on the west end of the city, the wards are divided as follows: Ward No. 2 will take in all of that portion of the city formerly known as the West Side with the exception of \he following: Starting in the center; of a line drawn from the intersection of Elgin Road and John street, thence west one block to Fourth street, then north on Fourth street to the intersection of Fourth and Main streets, thence west of Main street to the Intersection of Main and Third streets, thence north of Third street to the intersection of Third and Waukegan Road, thence west on Waukegan Road to Front street, thence north to the mill pond. Ward No. 1 will include all of die section of what was formerly known as the West Side and not included in ward No 2 and also from a line running from Boone creek north, entering the foot of Court street, thence north on Court street to the intersection of Court and Elm streets, thence west on Elm street to the intersection of Elm and Green streets, thence north on Green street to Washington street, thence west on Washington street to the city limits. Ward No. 3 will indnda all of that portion lying in what waa formerly known as the East Side and not included in ward No. 1. In all casaa the divisional- Una will be the center of street. To make things a trifle more clear i will say that ail voters residing in the block extending from Fourth! street to Elgin Road, as also those residing in the block extending from Third street, between Main street and Waukegan Road, to Elgin Road, and all those residing on the north side of of Waukegan Road as far as Front street, on what was formerly known as the West Side, will be included in ward No. 1. All others ih the west end of the city will be recorded in ward No. 2. Over on the east side of the city those residing in the block lying between Green and Court streets to Elm street, and those residing west of Green street from Boone creek to Washington street will be included in ward No. 1. • Everyone residing east of the cantar of Green street, between film-and Washington streets, as well as those residing east of Court street, between Elm street on Jthe north and east to the river, wgl be included in ward No. 8. As will be seen by the figures above the division gives wards one and two 266 voters each, while the third ward gets 276. The task of laying otit the wards and making the division as near equal as it was physically possible was by no means a small one. Much time and study of the matter was required and the members of the city council believe that their actions are quite generally approved by the voters. The first election under the new system will be held next spring. WON IIO.OO I RIZE IN WINDOW DISPLAY CONTEST John J. Vycital, the live-wire Centerville hardware man of thia city, has just received notification from the Remington Arms company of New York City to the effect that he has been declared one of the winners in a window display contest conducted by that company among their thousands of dealers thruout the United'States. As a reward for the efforts extended the McHenry man received a check for $10.00. The display, which brought the prize money, occupied the Vycital hardware window some weeks ago, at which time The Plaindealer made comment upon the unique and most attractive show. Credit for the display reaQy belongs to Miss Frances Vycital, danghter of the proprietor, who worked out the idea and did the work.

As a matter of fact, there isnt anything like it nor anything equal to it to be found in McHenry coWlty, the nearest cities having as complete an outfit being Rock ford and Chicago. JThe new machines and equipment were purchased by Mr. Hunter some time ago, but not until a week or so ago were all of the various machines placed into position for operation. Among the larger pieces to be installed are a cylinder grinder, drill presses, key setters, extra heavy lathe and milling machine. These, together with a number of smaller machines, comprise the shop's layout and make it possible for the experts employed to turn out any and all work in connection with marine and motor engines. At the time of our visit to the plant on Wednesday of thiB week the writer was informed that the shop, since the installation of the new machinery, had been kept busy on marine engine work, there being about seventy of these motors on the floor that had been repaired or were ready for attention.! Besides th«« th.r. were «l.o « nam- kindly be<r " ! wiH be .noth«r holiday : Tuesday, New Year's, and that no d«ife liveries will be made on that day. been brought in for attention. With the start of the new year the factory hopes to take care of much of the motor repair work of this section and the management feels that when once it becomes generally known that their shop is now care of the work which is now going to Rockford, Chicago and other large cities they will be kept quite comfortably busy. Not only witt the shop be at the service of garage men, who in the past have often found it quite inconven ient to send away for this class of work, but also to the farmers and others who have machinery of any kind to repair. This means money these days and with a completely equipped machine shop right in our midst one cannot afford to send their work away and thus lose a whole day or. even a week when the job can be done at home in a few hours.

The generator is so designed as to give direct instead of an alternating lighting system and thereby making it possible to produce a much more dear and better picture. Mr. Smith, owner of the local theatre, is ever making alterations and improvements that are in' phone company for some time keeping with the times, thus his latest acquisition means better service to his patrons. Mr. Smith is also keeping abreast of the times by booking the very latest releases, it having come to the attention of the writer quite frequently of late that the local house is showing the latest pictures before some of( the houses of this section.
