If MERCHANTS READY : FOR DOLLAR DAY fy^njRDAY OF THIS WEEK IS DATE T CARS COLLIDE AT BRIDGE CORNER |g00kt>v«r the Ads In This brae, They Contain Bargains McHenry's business men are all set for what promises to be the biggest I trading day in the history of this city. The response to the idea of Dollar Day this fall has been almost 100 per cent among the merchants, as shown by the many pages of Dollar Day advertisements to be found in this issue of The Plaindealer. Such co-operation among the business men can only have one result--a successful trading day. The ads contain hundreds of items at greatly reduced prices. All one has to do is to study the pages, pick out the articles wanted and then come to McHenry early Saturday, Oct, 2. The merchants will be ready to hand out the merchandise at the advertised prices as long as it lasts. They have planned for a crowd of people in the city during the day and evening. If the public realizes values and prices the crowd will be here to carry home the many bargains. The Dollar Day idea is not new for it has been followed in numerous cities for several years and always brings results. Give the people plenty for their money and distance seems to make but little difference. In this age of automobile travel a matter of a few extra miles cuts no figure. Therefore, this gigantic sale, having been advertised throughout the entire territory, it is expected font Sistbmers will be on hand Sat- "ittday morning from all directions. We have selected one item from each of the ads, picked at random, which will give our reads some idea of a few of the many good buys to be found in McHenry on Dollar Day. '?

GOOD PROGRESS ON ROAD WORK Driver of One Is Injured Bnt Not Seriously An automobile collision occurred Sunday afternoon at the corner of Riverside Drive and Pearl street, in which two parties were injured and narrowly escaped death. A Dodge coupe, driven by Floyd Koleman of Chicago, after stopping at the street by Bickler's hotel, was Proceeding south on Riverside Drive when he was hit by a Ford touring car driven by Miss Pearl Hack of 4715 Maiden street, Chicago, which was going east on Pearl street.

It is thought that Miss Hack became nervous and opened the accelerator on the Ford and drove right into the rear of the Dodge coupe. The two cars came together with great force, the coupe being turned completely around, while the Ford was smashed nearly beyond recognition. It seems miraculous that the occupants of the Ford were not killed as 'the car was turned over by the force of the impact. However, Mr. Koleman and his wife were uninjured, and Miss Hack and Earl Billings of 3661 S. Michigan boulevard, were only the worse off for a few severe body bruises. Miss Hack, who was driving the Ford, had her left hand smashed, the middle finger on that hand being broken. The Ford was owned by Mr. Billings. Mrs. Koleman is the daughter of Fred Karls of McHenry. Miss Hack and Mr. Billings took the Sunday evening train into Chicago. GRAND JURY RETURNS TWENTY TRUE BILLS real earnest. r After much litigation, which the people of McHenry will be happy to forget, bids were received on May 5 and the contract was let, work being commenced a few weeks ago. The W. E. Ule Co., which consists of W. E. Ule, his two sons, Carl and Harold, and Mr. McGlachlin, are on the job with 'their offices on the edge of the mill pond back of Unti's ice cream factory, while the headquarters for the men are in' the Mat. Weber building on Riverside Drive. They hope, if the weather continues favorable, to have the work finished from Sherman's hill to the Chicago & Northwestern railroad tracks this fall. T. J. Gharrity is doing the excavating and with about fifty men on the job the work is progressing nicely. Six culverts have been completed and also a cattle pass, all of which require ft large wnount of filling. The 180-foot culvert and cattle pass on Sherman's hall require a very heavy fill and men and teams have been PUBLIC SERVICE CO. * FLANS OPEN HOUSE Arleen Harrison, of McHenry chapter; Associate Conductress, Mrs. Emma Harvey, of Day Star chapter, Dundee; Secretary, Mrs. Nina Hock, of Woodstock chapter; Treasurer, Mrs. Elizabeth Moore, of Harvard chapter; Chaplain, Mrs. Edith B.

Stilling and situated at the intersection of Elm street and Riverside Drive. They will take possession of the 60x66 feet of this garage, which they will remodel and rebuild into a modern and up-to-date filling station. The lot on which the present building now stands is 60x112 feet and the filling station will occupy the southeast corner of this property. Mr. Stilling ^as purchased the 65- foot lot just north of the garage from Roy Kent and on this lot and the 5J feet which he still retains on Elm street intends to erect around the filling station one of the most modern fireproof motor salesrooms and garages in this section of th ecountry. The new building will not only contain plenty of floor space, but will have an entrance from both streets. The one on Elm street will lead directly into the garage and repair shop while the one on Riverside Drive will enter the showroom and salesroom where the accessories will be found. Besides carrying a full line of Nash cars they will carry adequate repair parts for these cars and i plained to them, conduct an extensive repair service,' Thousands of' Will Gnide Visitors Through Plants Oct. 4-9 Training of scores of Public Service company employees in the ability to guide parties of visitors through the company's various electric and gas generating stations during Open House Week from Oct. 4 to 9, inclusive, is occupying the attention of the company's officials. The extent to which inquiries are being received at the company's district headquarters and the general offices in Chicago, is evidence of the widespread public interest in the open house week project. Thousands of visitors were escorted through the company's plants last year and those in charge of this year's arrangements are preparing for a consideably larger attendance, due to the interest growing out of last year's event. The purpose of Open House Week, according to Charles W. Bradley, vice-president in charge of Public Relations and Service, is to familiarize the general public throughout the company's territory with the .organization which furnishes their gas or electric service. "It is our belief," stated Mr. Bradley recently, "that people are interested in learning something about the manufacture of gas and electricity From an educational and informative standpoint we feel that the public will welcome this opportunity of visiting one or more of the company's plants in order to see these essential commodities in the process of being liiade, and to have the process exat the present "time having three mer employed.

A. E. Fisher, veterai* bago attorney, was nominated for circuit judge of the 17th judiical circuit Wednesday at a convention of delegates from four counties held at Rockford. Fisher won out over Attorney Frank E. Maynard by a vote of 64 to 47. The verdict of the delegates settled an argument that has waged pretty hot for the past several day3. Contrary to the expression of the Rockford bar the Winnebago central committee voted in favor of Maynard and cast 43 solid votes for him in the con-- vention Wednesday. Lake county and Boone county voted solid for Fisher and McHenry county split 16 for Fishier and four for Maynard. Attorney Bruce Garrett of Rockford nominated Maynard and Attorney Omar Wright of Belvidere placed the name of Col Fisher in nomination. William F. Wiess, representative from this district and who hails from Waukegan was chairman of the convention. Col. Fisher is a veteran of the Spanish American War and is well known all over northern Illinois. Attorney Maynard came into tha limelight in this county when he acted as assistant prosecutor in the trial of Judge C. P. Barnes and Vincent S. Lumley. j' The peculiar part of the whole matter is that after Winnebago county picked its choice for judge the other three counties bolted and put in the man that they wanted.

The Ule company already has its hoisting engine, derrick and pile driving outfit on the location for the bridge across the mill pond and is at work completing the heavy fill necessary at each end of the bridge. This bridge will be a reinforced concrete girder bridge with a 60-foot span and will be the means of opening another route through McHenry, which will do much to relieve the traffic through our streets, especially during the summer months.

Last fall before a "Jury of Generals" Mitchell was found guilty of violating the hlxth article of war In attacking aviation problems of the nation. In the speedy climax to one of the most sensational trials in military history the Jury declared Mitchell guilty of conduct unbecoming to" an officer and prejudicial to good order and military discipline. Because of his verbal asault upon the army and navy air service the Jury fixed his penalty at suspension fi*om the army for five years with loss *«f all pay and allowances. Keen resentment against the findings of the "Jury of Generals" appeared through tha air service and scorer of reslgnatioas ? y younger officers, who regarded Mitchell as their leader, followed the verdict. The trial lasted for eight weeks and the verdict was rendered about a week before Christmas of last year.
