These merchants are extending an invitation to everybody to pay their stores a visit on Saturday of this week. A full twopage announcement appears in this issue of the Plaindealer. - Souvenirs are to be given to visitors 1n all five stores. Nobiby Style Shop ~The Nobby Stylo Shop, operated By Mesdames Barbian and FreuncV is now located in the new Walsh building on the east side of Green street. It is a real pleasure to enter this store for women and children. Attractive and well-dressed show windows greet the visitor and a warm reception is noticed immediately upon entering, these ladies have built up a wonderful business from a small beginning about two years ago and now the women of the community feel that they no longer need to go out of the ciy to secure what they want in quality and style. In the new Carey building on the west side of the street will be found three stores which were • formerly across the thoroughfare. Smith Brothers The first room at the north side of -the building is occupied by Smith Bros., who carry a full line of groceries and dry goods. This well-knoWn! and old-established firm nee<Js no introduction to anyone who has Resided in or near McHenry for any length of time. Smith Bros, have gained a reputation for quality merchandise at fair prices. Their new room is complete in every detail. Just drop In Saturday and see how glad the proprietors will be to greet you. McGee^s Men's Store Next door to the south is located the Omen's store of Ray McGee, with new and modern fixtures throughout, and attractive show windows, dlsplay- . ing all the late models of Hart Schaffner & Marx clothing and merchandise from other well-known houses. Mr. McGee established his store in McHenry eight years ago and is very proud of his new quarters. He invites the public to see the wonderful improvements he has made in his emporium.

Pay this place a visit on Saturday. You will go away pleased. Jacob Justen & Sons Up on the corner to the north, another enterprising firm awaits the visitor, being Jacob Justen & Sons, furniture dealers. This large building has been entirely remodeled, giving a big space for the immense line of furniture which the firm carries. New fronts give window room for the showing of suites from the street, while inside are to be found modern furniture of every description. This store was established in this location in the year 1884 and has therefore been doing business for the past forty-three years. Mr. Justen and his Contributions to the Legion Fire Fund have considerably. An additional $2,000 ts still to be raised, as not steps will be taken towards the purchase of a new truck until sufficient cash is' on hand; to make payment in full. It is very hard to understand" why1 this drive is not being supported by every property owner in our community in consideration of the fact that they are directly benefitted by adequate fire protection. It does not sound logical that any individual thinks, and values his property so low that it is not worth protecting. Attention is directed towards one local individual who, upon being asked to contribute something to this fund, very indignantly replied that he paid taxes and felt that this should be all that be required of him. Upon being asked how he would feel in case his house caught fire he remarked, "Every man for himself." We can be grateful that our community is not entirely populated with this class of citizen. Response on the part of the major FIVE KILLED IN AUTO CRASHES BIG SEDAN RUNS INTO FREIGHT TRAIN " A horrible accident, occurred at railroad crossing on Route 19 just out of Crystal Lake, Friday evening about 11:30 p. m. A large Cadillac sedan with eight passengers driven by John Burnett of Chicago crashed into a freight traiD. It is believed that unfamiliarity with the road and the heavy fog was the cause of the crash. The driver saw the train, pulled the emergency and swerved so that the right side was smashed. A braketnan was on the other side of the train but there was no warning on the side where the accident occurred. Three Are Dead Three of the party are dead and the others injured and badly shaken up. Mrs. Jennet Hillisheim, of Chicago, was killed instantly.

Although the fire started about 5 o'clock it was still raging throughout the evening and caught the attention of many in this city as well as the \ surrounding country. All of the buildings with the exception of the house, which is located on the opposite side of the road, were burned. The farm is now occupied by Steve Hautsinger and family, who moved there from a farm in Ostend last spring. Over forty tons of new hay, a large quantity of old grain farm machinery tools were lost in the fire, making the loss a heavy one. Fortunately Mr. Hautsinger had not threshed his new crop of grain, although he had been ready and waiting for th« threshers for several days. Neighbors of the Hautsinger family made plans at once to help them care for their stock and to assist them in every wiay possible. The barn was an old structure and was only partially covered by insurance, while the granary and the machine shed were built last spring. ATTEND GOVERNOR'S DAY AT THE KANKAKEE FAIR guilty.
