Three moathi. Mote. Thuradmj, July 4* HYSTK WORKERS RATES ADVANCED n* CENT INCREASE ON EACH 91.000 DE CIDES AT BIENNIAL MEETING. Insurance rates in the Mystic Work ers of the World will be advanced 10 cents on each $1,000 carried by the members, beginning January 1, 1913. Thin was decided by a vote of the del egates at the biennial convention of the lodge at Milwaukee recently, but fc-- been kept quiet outside the mem bers of the lodge. The advance came as a compromise advance following a motion to make th* increase fifty per cent. The rate proposition was one of the most im portant at the convention and other members of the lodge watched with interest the^fection of the delegates. v The slight advance of 10 per cent will do away with what promised to be a break in the ranks similar to that of the Modern Woodmen. The rate question has been one of great dis- enasion in the ranks for months, ever «|m»j the Woodmen rates were ad vanced. Defeat of what a majority of the delegates regarded as too high a raise to 50 per cent led to the 10 cents on 1 each $1,000 being obtained without much difficulty, for it was patent to nearly all presept that an advance is Beoessary and that the head officials of the order, who are in a position to Wruiw the conditions, would not stand for an advance unless they regarded tike action as essential to the good of the order. And in order that a more definite understanding may be reached, it was voted that a committee of three be named to make a thoro investigation looking to the society going on a more adequate rate and to submit their find ings to the membership before the convening of the head lgdge meeting two years hence. Fred Zick and E. E. Fitch, members of the board of direc tors for many years, and Edmund Jack son, supreme secretary for twelve years, were named as the committee to make the adequate rate investiga tion. The 10-eent-a-thousand increase will not become effective until January 1 at next year. Only minor changes were made in the by-laws of the order, one of which WAS that hereafter applicants can be written at the age of sixteen instead of eighteen years and up to forty-eight years instead of fifty-one years as at present.

Every once in a while a subscriber comes into this office or meets us on the street and tells us that he enter tained company and that we did not have it in the paper. One subscriber who lives out in the country told us last week that he was going to stop the paper for the reason that we did not publish any news concerning him self, his family or relatives. We po litely informed him that we were only too willing to give mention of all news items that we know and are told us, but that he could not expect us to mention happenings that were not sent to us either by phone, mail, left at the office or placed in our item box es. A number of our subscribers, both village and rural, have acquired the habit of sending in their news items and to those we wish to extend our sincere thanks. Now if all of our sub scribers will form the same habit we are sure that The Plaindealer will not let any news item get away. Just cut out this siip and place it where you will see it every day. Just tell us the news and we assure you that you will see it in print. If every one of our subscribers will do this we are sure that we can give you a paper that will not take a back seat for any of 'em. Now don't forget, if you have enter tained copipany, gone away yourself, had a v edding, death or birth, acci dent or social gathering in the family, tell us about it and we'll do the rest. OPENING DANCE Yourself and ladies are cordially in vited to attend an opening dance at Buch's hall next Saturday night, July 6. This will be the first of a series of dances to be held in this hall during the summer months. The hall is sit uated on the banks of Fox river, right near the bridge, and is sure to be the coolest dance hall in McHenry. The management of these dances is ex pecting a large crowd and feels safe in saying that everyone is sure to have good time. Don't forget the opening date. Music by the Imperial orchestra. Dance tickets, 50 cents. AS PICKED UP BY PLAINDEALER RE POSTERS DURING WEEK. WHAT PEOPLE ARE* DOING IN THIS VIL LAGE AND THE IMMEDIATE VICINITY- OTHER SHORT PARAGRAPHS. Not a "dead" one on the bill at the Central opera house next Sunday even ing, July 7. 3 The water in the mill pond has been lowered so as to kill the weeds and other growths. Have you secured the dog license and had your dog muzzled? If not, you had better do so at once. The carpenter work on the new bun galow that is being erected by C. W. Stenger is progressing very favorably. There is some talk among the sport ing element here of pulling off an athletic exhibition at the Central opera house some time in the near future. The water pump at the pumping station is putting in overtime these warm days. The well, we are told, is pumped dry every day. There is plen ty of water, but the reservoir is too small. A second reservoir is sadly needed. This is the glorious Fourth. The McHenry people are scattered all over this section of the country. Some are at Spring Grove, others at Jbhnsfiurgh and Crystal Lake, while there are some left to pass the day quietly here at home. The electric light service was very poor in McHenry last Sunday evening and as a result the moving picture shows at the air dome and Central op era house were put out of business. The air dome showed the Sunday pic tures on Monday night. Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Sutton of Emer ald Park are caring for a bright, bouncing boy, which arrived at their home on Monday, June 24. "Mack" is talking "farm" to the youngster al ready and by the time he reaches his majority the boy should be able to put it all over his daddy in the line of farm work. Local fight fans are anxiously await ing the result of the Johnson-Flynn fight which is taking place at Las Vegas, N. M., today. Most of the local followers of the game seem to believe that the "Lil Arthur" will win with ease, while there are a few who are willing to place a small wager on the Pueblo fireman. On the editorial page of this issue we reproduce a cartoon drawn by Mc Henry's young cartoonist, H. Hetting-' er, whose parents have a summer home on Fox river. The work of this young artist is wonderful for a boy of his age a.nri we can see where he will be one of the top notchers in that line of work some day. We have a few more of his cartoons which will appear in latef* issues of The Plaindealer. SERVICES AT M. E. CHURCH. , Hegular services will take place at M.
