SEPTEMBER 3.1025 MUM TO HAVE p .mm HUB 96 CHARTER MEMBERS NECESSARY Applications Assured Now to Warrant Charter 1 - l-T A wteetfrtg to discus^^ite tiott of a Kiwanis club in McHenry wm« held last Friday evening at the West McHenry State bank, attended by a number of the business men of the city, which resulted in much favorable comment at the start and ended with fourteen applications being signed. J. Scott Matthews presided at the meeting. Mr. Matthews is a Chicago nan, but has jnany interests in and around McHenry. He is the one who is starting a new industry here at the present time, having organized the McHenry Sash & Door Co., purchased land near the tracks and expects soon to erect a factory building. Besides this he is heavily interested in the Pistakee Heights subdivision and the dredgng company which operates in this locality, also the Matthews-Tonyan Construction Co. Mr. Matthews stated in his talk to the gathering that he was not an organizer for the Kiwanis and was not a candidate for any office, but that his sole object in assisting in the starting of a Kiwanis club here was for the future of McHenry. "I believe that McHenry has a great future," said Mr. Matthews, "and I want to get in on the ground floor. I think that a good, live Kiwanis club is what we need to boost the city. What we need here to begin with is more industries and more places to amuse the people who come here. McHenry can be made the central point of this territory if we but wake up and go after these things. "I am financially interested lw»e now in several ways and I am willing to go farther along these lines. I also know others in the city of Chicago who can be induced to come to McHenry. But we should have a live organization here to be ready to handle any proposition which may come up." «• Mr. Matthews stated that on Sept. 16 there is to be a district convenion in the city of Chicago for Kiwanis clubs. He suggested that if the McHenry club can be organised before that time that arrangements can be made for the new members to go to Chicago and receive their charter right on the convention floor, which would mean as big an advertisement for McHenry as anything that could be done. The Kiwanis is an international organization with nearly 100,000 member* in the United States and Canada. It is made up of business and professional men only and allows but two members from any line in the i^mo club, differing in this way from the Rotary, which allows but one. Splendid enthusiasm was displayed by those in attendance at the meeting and everyone present signd an application for membership Since that time we have learned that many more have signified their intentions of joining. There is practically no doubt but what the necessary thirty-five charter members will be obtained by Friday evening of this week, at which time another meeting is to be held at the West McHenry State bank. With at least that many boosting Kiwanians located right here in our city, there is no telling how many new industries and new residents can be induced to come to McHenry in the next few years. There are many natural advantages here now to attract people and with the completion of the city pavements and the state hard roads* there will be additions of a far-reachr ing benefi. McHenry is the Gateway City to the Fox River region, including a chain of fourteen lakes. It is becoming known as the playground for Chicago northern Illinois. These things are always attractive to people who love the great outdoors. Those who have visited this terriory have been impressed with the cordial reception extended to them by McHenry and its people. We want these folks to come here for even a day or a weekend. If they do that, soon they will be coming for a month or all summer. But, better yet, always let them feel that our city would not be a bad place o esablish a permanent home, and hundreds of them will eventually realize that here they can live with all the modern conveniences to be found in the city, but with the fields and woods right at their doors when they feel like getting closer to nature. Let's hang out the "Welcome" signs everywhere and put the slogan, "Move te McHenry," right along vrit^ the first greeting. : r - McHenry Checker Cafc Htf B. J. Adams purchased one of the finest cabs on the market today and Is now ready to give the city of McHenry a splendid cab service. Mr. Adams has for the last five years conducted a bus and taxi service in this city, which he will continue to keep in operation in addition to the new Checker cab service. ® M*HENRY~BANKS CLOSED, .

Lowest Bidder ftor > Pavement The McHenry Board of Local Improvements made another pavement letting at a meeting held in the city hall Wednesday forenoon aL 11 o'clock, which resuled in the firm of McGucken ft Vander Heyden Co. again being awarded the contract, this concern being the lowest bidder. The Milwaukee contractors have done about all the paving work in this city. They are at present excavating on N6rth Green street and will also pave Pearl stret and Green street, south of Elm, to the Community high school. The contract awarded yesterday morning was for the paving of Waukegan road, with Type A, the bid being $18,856.40. It is expected that work will be started on Waukegan road just as soon as the other jobs are completed. There is but one other stretch of paving to be considered this year, being on Elgin road, from the high school south to the city limits. A public hearing will be held on this project on Sept. 14. Before cold weather sets in it is believed that all the paving* in McHenry now under contract will have been completed, which will give our city a stretch of hard roads equal, if not better, than most other cities of its sise. CLUB VOTE STIRS UP WIT SPEED DOUBLE MERIT VOTE FOR COMING WEEK Only Two More Weeks Loft; Candidate Should Hustle ' Now to Win The biggest vote offer in the history of the Contest is on the program for this week. It is a big double offer. One merit vote for new and one for old subscriptions. This gives each candidate a chance to get big votes for the kind of subscriptions they can •get the easiest. The end of this gigantic contest is in sight and it behooves each and every candidate to get a hustle on them if they expect to get anywhere in the race. In fact it is the opinion of the writer that if some of the candidates do not get busy one from farther down on the list will get busy and win first prize. The race is so close that anyone in the race can get up to the top by good work in the next two weeks. With the end of the contest in sight it is imperative for each candidate to work as they never have worked before if they intend to be driving this beautiful Nash around the country. This big double offer is a splendid opportunity to wipe out all your mistakes and bad luck of the past and establish a lead that will put you over the top for the first prise Nash Sedan. Remember: it will be imposible for any candidate to win without a pretty high place on both of these merit votes.

The first fire oc curred on Sunday noon at the Hanley farm, west of this city. No damage was done, as the firemen were on duty a very short time after they were summoned. On Tuesday, also at about noon the fire-fighters were again on the job at Lake Defiance, where they saved surrounding buildings from possible damage. McHenry people are beginning to feel less uneasy^about fires since they see the rapidity with which the firemen respond to fire calls. MoU|?r>' Club 3ha Mothers' Club will meet Friday afternoon, Sept. 4, at the home of Mrs. A. H. Pouse on Main street. This is the first meeting after the summer vacation, and all members who «• are urged to attend.

The night was rather warm and the crowd that turned out wasnt quite as luge as usual But the band expects much better success Sunday and Monday when con certs will be given in the Fox Pavilion park to help along the big celebration That's just one more reason why everyone ought to visit McHenry over Labor Day. * Buy your groceries of Erickson's Department Stare.

The cup wm one of seven donated by various organizations for prizes in relation to club memberships. McHenry won in Districts Nos. 8 to 13, inclusive, winning the Schick cup for the highest percentage of increased membership. The number of members in the McHenry post has increased from twenty-nine to eighty-two in the past year. This is the second honor the McHenry Legion has won in that time, being the recent winner of the membership banner for having the highest percentage of members present at the Twelfth District convention at Woodstock. The Legion has been doing splendid work the past year and has helped a great deal in the progress of this community. The following is a general account of some of the activities of the post since November, 1924: On Nov. 4, the Legion held its first meeting at the McHenry House. The following officers were elected: Commander--Ray McGee. v Vice-Commander--Howard Wattles. Second Vice-Commander -- Jamas Doherty. Finance Officer--John Bolger. Sergeant-at-Arms -- William Bickler. County Executives--Charles Reihansperger and Albert Barbian. Adjutant--R. E. Bobb. Publicity--William Althoff. Service Officer--Alford Pouse. Historical Committee--R. E. Bobb, C. J. Reinhansperger and WilHam Althoff. Entertainment-John Bolger and William Bickler. » The first work started was the organization of a membership drive, which was a splendid success, due to the efforts of all the members. In December a play, entitled "One on Bill," was given at the Empire theatre, uhder the direction of Adjutant R. E. Bobb. The peopie of the community had by this time become more than interested in the Legion's work and a fine crowd turned out to enjoy the play and at the same time to help in the good work being done for the city. Consequently, a neat sum was added to the treasury. In the same month the adjutant attended the convention held in.Bloomington in regard to the general work of the Legion. On July 4, a carnival was given, and again the public responded willingly. Seventy-five per cent of the proceeds obtained was put into the public improvement fund, in the hands of a committee of six members--three from the American Legion and three from the Community club. This committee agreed that the money be spent in the purchase of ornamental street lights for the business disricts. At the time of the carnival the Le gion discussed the purchase of uni forms, but finally agreed upon post oaps and these have proved just as satisfactory as the uniforms. Throughout the year the Legion has done pplendid work, being, in general, responsible for the purchase of the new fire truck, having marked the graves of the world war veterans, and pushing, as far as possible, every im provement The Ladies' Auxiliary to the Amer ican Legion has not as yet been or ganized, but it is hoped that the officers for next year will help in its in traduction into the city. As already announced, the Legion is now trying to do its best to make the Home-coming and Labor Day celebration a success, and the members are certain of receiving the support of McHenry people in the enterprise which they are undertaking--that of helping to better this community.

Stenger, banker and realtor West McHenry will have an additional business concern added to its district. The lot belonging to Richard Walsh, located just west off the postoffice, was sold to James Marrow and Sons, of Waukegan, district agent for the Dodge Motor Co. The ground runs through from main street to Waukegan road and it is understood the new owners will erect a modern building with Dodge Salesrooms on main street, a garage and probably an oil station on the other street. The lot has a 55-foot frontage on both streets. Thus West McHenry will become McHenry county headquarters for sale of Dodge cars. We welcome Marrow and Sons to our city, and extend the invitation tri others to locate here.

V *% In a ascent edition, the Plaindealer published an account of conditions in China, as they had been sera by Miss Rorer, who is staying here. Now we are giving a little sketch of missionary work in India. This time we obtained our information through a letter written by Miss Jennie M. Smith, a former resident of this city, and a graduate of the McHenry high school. Twenty-one years ago Miss Smith left her home about one mile north of this city for Portland, Ore., where she taught school for some time. In 1915 she began work as a missionary in India, where she is still working. The following sketch is taken from Miss Smith's letter: "Under my care are thousands of Indian girls all eager to learn all they can. And to help along the work of teaching them the government has been very generous with funds. Our government grant has been increased by sixteen rupees monthly. In March 260 rupees were given for repairs and furniture. By using this sum of money, we now have enough beds for all the girls." "This year a nurse trained in Bareilly hospital has been attending the girls with the result that we have not once had to call a doctor for them* in spite of this fact there have been hundreds of deaths among the older people of the country, due to plague during the past six months. The girb% under care of the nurse, do not suffer from the plague and can continue to do good school work. "The two brightest girls of this year's eight grade class have been sent to Normal school and two others of former years are now in high school. We hope to have these four girls as teachers in time. And teachers are always needed in India. "We hope these little glimpses into our home will help you to understand our condition and will let you know we appreciate your help, for in India any little help that c*n be given Is always appreciated.** DEGEN-KUENY WEEKLY EXCHANGE ITEMS0F1NTEREST TAKEN FROM COLUMNS OF OUR EXCHANGES Assortment of News Items In ggndensed Form Bnsy Peopie _ J. Krachock, Chicago junk man, was fined $18 and rost before justice Buehl er Monday night after an old automobile he was wrecking in Crystal Lake caught fire from an acetylene torch. Sparks from the torch ignited gasoline which had leaked from the old wreck and the flames spread rapidly. A stream of fire ran down the gutters for some distance as the gasoline blazed. After the blaze had been extinguished, members of the department decided that it was wellnigh criminal carelessness to use right in the heart of the city an acetylene torch on an automobile, and Krachock was placed under arrest. If the plans of the Crystal Lake park board are carried out as now contemplated a large bath house will be erected on the beach at the lake ready for use of the public when the season opens next year. Sparks from a locomotive set Are to a large straw stack on the Frank Bliss farm south of Crystal Lake recently. The stack was consumed but was far enough away so that none of the buildings on the place were in danger. The loss is estimated at about $75.00. One side of a large apple tree in the G. H. Schueneman yard on Crystal Lake avenue, Crystal Lake, is in blossom for the second time this year. Some weeks ago masons who were working on the house set fire to a pile of sacks and rubbish under the tree. Every branch touched by the heat from the fire below, has blossomed out, while the balance of the tree bears only the leaves which are about to turn brown and drop off before the long winter sleep.

Reverend Father McEvoy, pastor o£ the church for the past ten years, left McHenry Wednesday to sail for Rome, where he will visit His Holiness, the Pope. Father McEvoy has done a great deal for the parish, especially in being the first to suggest the building of the much-needed new church. And he has also done much for the city by the great interest he has taken in all its affairs and by the help he has given to forward the right. After an extended visit in Rome he will return to McHenry, where everyone will be glad to welcome him on his return. Reverend Father Hackett, who has acted as assistant pastor of the parish for two years, has been transfered to Fulton, III., and will leave this city to resume his duties in that place F .-iday. During the time he has been in McHenry, Father Hackett, also, has made many friends, and the people of this city feel deep regret at the thought that he will probably not return to McHnry. Reverend Father Freund, who has acted as assistant in St. Mary's parish for some time., will take Father Mc- Evoy's place during his absenca.

The wedding was celebrated at St. Mary's church in this city at 8 o'clock. Miss Mary Stoffel, a former school mate of the bride, acted as bridesmaid, and Mr. M. Kueny, brother of the groom, as best man. The bride was attired in a plum-color satin crepe gown and hat to match, and wore a corsage of pink roses and ferns. The wedding breakfast was served at the home of the bride's sister, Mrs. Will Blake, and soon afterwards the young couple left for their wedding tour through northern Wisconsin. The bride is a graduate of the McHenry public school and for the last six years has been employed in the Western Union telegraph office in Kenosha.

"About 1880 Dr. Koch of Germany, one of the greatest physicialii. of his time, succeeded in isolating the " germ of tuberculosis, and producing a serum which he named 'tuberculin* and heralded to the world as a cunt for tuberculosis, in the human family, which was acclaimed by the medical profession throughout thS world as a great boan to mankind. "" 1*After several years of its appKcations to the human family and a close study of the results, Dr. Koch discovered that the test was so searching that it would arouse a dormant state of tuberculosis into activity and cause death in a human who otherwise might live out a normal life and die from other cansss. The Doctor was just as prompt to herald this information to medical practitioners of the world with the suggestion to discontinue its use fal the human family, which has been accepted generally by all the best schools of medicine. > "Veterinaries and Politicians took up the test as a means of eradicating tuberculosis from the bovine family, and incidentally, to get large approporiations from the state legislatures which made more political jobs, with the unfortunate dairyman taking a big loss and the taxpaying public paying the balance of the bill.

An appropriation of $5,000 was also made to investigate the healthfulness of dairy herds in Illinois. t "The proclamation raised such storm of indignation among tha dairymen of Illinois and was being so generally violated that the state took the matter into court when the proclamation was declared class legislation, which made the proclamation null and void.
