The preparatory work, which takes a great deal of time a* !L' is about finished and work on the piers and abutment? has been started. The Widell Construction company of Mankato, Minn., which turned in the lowest bid for the bridge work, unloaded more than twenty cars of machinery and equipment at the begining of the job and this was taken to the west bank of the river where an office and work shop was erected and where headquarters are now located.

The weather and conditions -are most favorable for the convenience of the Work, the river being frozen so that the men can work on it, also making it more convenient for the state engineers to run their lines. The bridge will be an eight-span construction of entire concrete through out, including deck and rails. The total improvement will cover about 807 feet, while the superstructure, or bridge proper, will measure 470 feet between the abutments. This beautiful structure will be built on a curve, with about 15-foot water clearance, making ample allowance for the passage of passenger and pleasure boats during the summer. The bridge will be supported by seven piers, with three fender piers running parallel with the current of the river, and the workmen are making the most of the opportunity of working on the ice in building these piers. The river bottom is not of the best and it is thought that pile will have to be driven under every footing. . Orie cement pier 4s already finished and the footing for the third pier was under way at the first of the week and work on the seventh pier or one farthest east was started. The work on the bridge proper is started at the east end and brought to" completion at the west end, so that access can be had to the supplies. Piles have been dk-iven across the river and on thes* the false work is built and the material is drawn across in cars. The concrete is mixed on the ground level, then conveyed across the river in these cars and again it is lowered and unload^ by means of the thirty-ton steam shovel or jR the thirty-ton steam shovel or "whirly," as it is called. Three steam outfits and two gasoline rigs •re in operation most of the time. "The hammer used to drive the steel sheeting for the coffer dam is run by either steam or gas and the quick steady tap-tap of the hammer quickly drives the steel sheeting to a depth of from ten to twenty feet below the river bottom. After the coffer dam is built the concrete is poured for the pier. The material is all heated before it is used to prevent freezing. About 3,000 yards of concrete and 200 tons of reinforcing steel will be used in the construction of the bridge. Much of the material is brought from Beliot, Wis. The pile are driven hf I Fox River Valley Camp, R. N. A. Fox River Valley Camp, Royal Neighbors of America, held its first meeting with the n-;wly installed officers in charge on Tuesday evening. A good crowd was in attendance and an interesting meting was enjoyed by the members present.

It is expected that if the usual run of good luck continues, to have two piers completed, the footing in for a third one, and the abutment well under way by the end of the week. By the first of June enough of the concrete work will be in so that the structure will have the appearance of a "real" bridge and if all goes well it is hoped and expected that it will be ready for travel by Thanksgiving . The cost to the state will be about $90,000, but McHenry will have one of the most beautiful bridges in this part of the country and one to be proud of. " Work is also being resumed on the bridge across "Use-mill pond, since it was discontinued before the ice cutting. The bridge over Boone creek was sublet to a contractor from Barington and the work has progressed rapidly. The laying of the concrete floor of this bridge was commenced Monday, which means that the bridge is nearing completion and will, no doubt, be open for traffic m a. month or two.;. ' y>t Members of McHenry Post, American Legion, held their annual banquet at Bidder's McHenry House Tuesday evening of this week, with a good attendance of its membership and a number of invited guests, several of whom were from out of town. Dinner was served to about fifty. Thomas P. Bolger, district commander of District 11, presided, introducing the speakers of the evening in a very able manner. The popular McHenry druggist was plainly a great favorite among his commrades. The session started off with some singing by the boys, led by Hubert Vogel, a guest from Waukegan. Many of the songs popular during the war were chorused with the usual enthusiasm of the ex-service men. Before introducing the main speak ers of the evening, Mr. Bolger called on a number of leading Legionnaires and guests to say a few words. Am ong them were William M. Carroll, commander of Peter Umathum Post of Woodstock; Warern Fish, postcommander of the same post; Ray Mc- Gee, past commander of McHenry Post; Mr. Grady of Waukegan; N. H. Petesch, McHenry banker, and Floyd E. Covalt, president Of the McHenry. Kiwanis club. James Sykora or "Jim," as he is known among the Legion boys, delivered a splendid address, touching upon the ideals of the American Legion and outlining some of the splendid work which the organization -is doing and also what it can do to benefit the members. Mr. S.vkora's speech was really a heart-to-heart talk, containing much food for thought and paying a high tribute to the countless active members of the Legion. • Attorney James G. Welch forme? state's attorney of Lake county was the main speaker of the evening. He is a great favorite among the boys and this was plainly evident when he arose to deliver his message. Mr. Welch started out by paying Mr. Sykora a splendid compliment on the talk just finished. He stated that it was one of the best he had ever heard and he knew that it came right from the heart. The speaker then related some of his experiences at the time the war was declared, how he witnessed the going away of the boys and pictured some of the scenes at the depot so common at that time. He expressed a wish that the people might have some of the same spirit new that they had then, now when there are so many disabled veterans who need better care and assistance. The Waukegan attoyj^y held the -trict attention of his auditors as he went from the serious things to those of a lighter nature, illustraing his points very often with a humorous story. And, by the way, Jim Welch can tell a story about as good as any man we know of. He's Irish, of course, <o why shouldn't he be ? One thing he said he could not understand. His Darents were born in Ireland, yet Jim is a Republican and also a Protestant. Mr. Welch's talk was much enjoyed by all present and he sat down amid the applause of the Legionnaires and guests. Toastmaster Bolger next introduced Tack Wor^h, the new, commander of the Post. Commander Worth made a very able talk, outlining some of the things which he figured the Post <hould endeavor to accomplish during the coming year. He also brought frrth some humorous statements re yarding his war record, the speaker very cleverly burlesqueing on what nt first was taken seriously by his listeners. The new commander announced the following Committees for the year: Membership--Johr, Bolrfar, chairman; William K. Altho'ff. Joe Weber. House--James Doherty and Raymond Powers. Refreshment--A1 Barbian. chairman; William Biekler, L,ouis Stoffel. Memorial Day--J. W- Worth, chairman; Ray McGee, Peter Neiss. Civic Welfare--Dr. H. F. Cannon." Service Officer--Charles J.

Whiting wag high scorer, making an aggregate of fourteen points; Gus Freund came second, totaling ten points. Coach Stringer of the high school teams acted as referee. In the first quarter McHenry scored twelve points to the three points of their opponents. Sibre Whiting made six out of the twelve. The first half ended 28-5 in favor of the M. A. A. C. Freund duplicated Whiting's score record of six points in this quarter. Zeke Bacon came in second with two baskets. Lake Zurich made a two-point gain by sinking one basket. * Krause, Green and Peterson replaced three of the regulars in the third quarter. Each of the regulars made a basket. The Lake Zurich boys made a comparatively large gain by scoring seven points. Earl Walsh, of the regulars, showed up fine at this* time by putting over some very clever and fast guard work. As the third quarter ended the locals were leading a 34-12 score. The regulars came back, In the final period, and ran the score up higher still. Zeke Bacon made two baskets and one free throw, while1 Sibre Whiting made three baskets. This aggregated McHenr.v's score at 45. Lake Zurich slipped in two baskets and raised their score up to 16. And there the scores remained when the final whistle ended the game. Of course, it is needless to say that the locals entirely outclassed the Lake Zurich team, being able to play rings around them all the time. Lake Zurich, however, needs a good word and they deserve it. as they played a clean and hard game and were real sports even if they did lose by such a large score. The M. A. A. C._and Lake Zurich lightweight teams clashed in a curtain m'ser, which resulted in a 19-14 Winning for the M. A. A. C. "Colonel' Stoffel was the shining Star on t^ local lightweight team He not Oflty made thr< e basket ; but played exceptionally pood ga.xrding and forward vork. ft® was all over the floor at the same time. The Lake Zurich boys were stuplfi •<] l>y having hint run be'.w»,en or aroMrtd then legs, sratch the ba'l and t->'o it down to McHenry's basket and if not making it himself, giving it to someone who was in a better position to make a shot. William Green was the other shining light of the team. He not only made several points, but did some real team work. Krause. Peterson and Conway held up their end of the game very well, too. The McHenry Amateur Athletic club mVt their first defeat of the season in the seventh game of their schedule. They lost by one point to the Waukegan Y. M. C. A. in a fast and exciting game, which was played at the Waukegan Y. M% C. A. gym on Tuesday night. The finat score was 28-7. Zeke Bacon was the star of the game on the local team. At one time McHenry was leading the score by eight noints, and if there had been better guard work on the M. A. A. C. team, undoubtedly £he locals would hav^ brought the laurels home. The Y. M. C. A. team plays a return game with McHenry, which is scheduled for March 4, at which time the locals hope to be on the long end of the score.

The condition of the road prevented either making speed and it was not until the Colby farm was reached that the coupe was overtaken. Driving up alongside the first car and rubbing fenders, Mr. Frye leaped onto the running board of his coupe, taking quite a chance in doing so owing to the speed of the cars and the condition of the road.

Then the chase started across the fields towards McCollum's lake. The Italian boy had an overcoat on and this prevented him from making much speed. He was soon captured by Mr. Miller. Not so with the Polish lad.. He had gained considerable headway and soon outdistanced all except Mr. Ryan, the lanky foreman of the Plaindealer office, who threw himself into high gear and after a chase of several rods was able to bring his prey .to a stop. They were loaded into the car and brought to McHenry and placed in charge of City Marshal Jack Walsh. The driver of the Borden truck was interviewed and he said the boys got aboard near Lake Zurich. Further questioning of the prisoners brought out the fact that they had stolen a Ford touring car in the city early in the morning, drove it until they ran out of gas took off the spare tire and left the Ford alongside the road. Not knowing the character of the thieves and whether or not they were armed, the four men who took up the case showed their ability to face danger when the opportunity presenta willing ear.
