Herold I and "Bud" Stanton of Ingleside shore and Chris Lutz of ingleside attended the rag time ball at the. Park View §:* Saturday night. Mrs. Jas. Hayek and Mrs. F. Scala i of Ingleside, their faces wreathed in decorated with carnations, were entertained with a coffee k latch by Mrs. Jas. Halpin Saturday after­ noon. Mrs. Wm. Tonyan of Solon Mills, Mrs. Bernard Tonyan of McHenry, John Tonyan and Miss Theresa Tonyan of Fox Lake were guests at a luncheon given by Mrs. Henry Dowe Thursday afternoon. Wm. Tonyan, who until recently was engaged in the retail milk busi­ ness, having disposed of his. herd of cows, made a trip to Chicago and purchased thirty-two head of steers and is now engaged in the live stock business. • At the contest ' conducted at the Gray slake high school for the cham­ pionship of Crane township, Raymond Walsh was the winner of the first prize, George Fiala. the second and Alfred Dowe the third.. The teachers were Lee Sherwood and Daniel McTaggart, respectively. H. Hendricks & Co. recently con­ ducted a candle burning contest, which resulted in a tie, three persons guess­ ing the same number of hours. Miss : Mazie Stratton, Mrs. D. A. Willey and Reinhold Muench. drew lots and the handsome chocolate pot was won by Miss Stratton. Miles Cooper, who was perambulat­ ing on Washington avenue election day, became confused to such an ex­ tent as to be unable to distinguish be­ tween doors end windows of Kimball's •s sni '*.departmentyilore and precipitated him- f " self thnuftne of the plate glass windows iSn^tablishment. The "400" card club met at the resi- dence of Mrs'. F. W. Schulz Wednes-liV-V-V p*' * ; / day afternoon.

' "Hank" Theilen and Barney Norton became involved in a war of words I' election day and Barney became so |%\ V obstreperous that "Hank" took fright Jpj:' and fled to the department store of H. Hendricks for safety, closely followed by his antagonist, who entered at about fej ' the same time and renewed the dis- oussion to the consternation of the pro- . prietor, who promptly ordered them to desist under penalty, a request which jpp^.' they finally obeyed, and peace was restored once again in Ingleside. Judge Schulz, our versatile jurist and exponent of legal jurisprudence for the Fox Lake region, went down to defeat at the polls Tuesday, April 1, after making a determined and per­ sistent campaign for re-election. We 7;^[ are unable to determine, with any de- gree of accuracy, the factors that con- tributed to the judge's downfall and ^ elevated to a position of honor and dig- •4 nity his opponent, Chas. F. Pasdeloup. ' ̂ The most astute observation that we can hazard is that it was due to polit- ical fortunes and conditions that ore ** are wholly unable to interpret at the present time. Judge Schulz is now de- ||k; voting his energies to the task of in- i creasing his cigar manufacturing busi- r: ;. ness and we wish him mnch success in fe ' ; this direction. ly'v Recently we made mention of the |||' fact that we had exhausted our vocab - ulary of classical cognomens used in Hf,; , defining the personality of "Red |||' Muench. However, later developments ||i*in connection with a close mental ap- j * plication to the subject has enabled us evolve two new sobriquets that will |p| - serve to distinguish him from the corn- gp£. mon herd, therefore We are able to fe. say this week that our "incorruptbile |V * statesman and political paragon," Rien- ^ i hold "Red" Muench, was very much P&A.: in evidence election day at Ingleside, fe, where his appearance was greeted - # „ wi*h tremendous applause when he ap- peared at t*he town hall to register his f-; .s political convictions. He was imme- (liately importuned to open the flood gates of his "eloquence" for the edifi- pfj cation of tha assembled voters. Read- p.;. •" ily acceding to the demands of the sit- uatton he proceeded to deliver one of jj®Y ; his famous "orations," which evoked a series of wild demonstrations, inter- mingled with harsh exclamations, bois­ terous ejaculations and hectoring iQ, tarjeetions on the part of those unable V;"7 ,fir: • Ws^ ' •< '$%: « . to stem the tide Of his oratory difi caused by this impromptu political gathering, in conjunction with a babel of vocal gymnastics issuing from the throats of a score of leather lunged in­ dividuals, created a volume of discord­ ant noise that smote the walls of tb;- building and escaping thru the dour and windows bounded across Washing­ ton avenue and mingled with the anvil chorus in the blacksmith shop of Wm. Kline across oiithe opposite side of the avenue. Finally one of the election clerks, desiring to bring the harrangue to a close, decorated himself with a feather duster by inserting the hand perpendicularly under his coat collar in the region of his ceryical vertebrae, after which he proceeded to execute an Indian war dance, which had the effect of silencing our "orator of the day." In the evening after the re­ sults were announced there was a grand transformation scene. The buffets in the vicinity were the scenes of wild enthusiasm, generated from a liberal consumption of beverages, which seemed to be the favorite pastime. The dull thud of brawny fists upon the "mahogany," which was profusely dec­ orated with coin of the realm, was ac­ companied by hoarse commands to join the reveler in the flowing bowl. The stjprm center seemed to be located in the region of Washington avenue, the Broadway of Ingleside, which was the favorite habitat of the crowds that gravitated from one place to another, while the plebeians haunted the more garish resorts, anxiously awaiting an invitation to join in the festivities. Excited men Jwith feverish brows and wildly dilated eyes, with hats reposing upon a disheveled hirsute adornment, kept up a chorus of ejaculations, such as givesnother, whattleyohave, drin- cup, howmuchdoye, etc., interspersed with loud guffaws and disjointed mono­ logues to the smiling acquiesence of the "wine" clerk, who deftly maneuv­ ered glasses to within easy reach of their left hands, while with a flourish he deposited the decanters containing spirits fermenti in close proximity to their right hands. Thus was their cup of joy filled to overflowing and life be­ came one grand symphony of happi­ ness, peace and contentment. Don't forget that we have another election April 15. Hard TlntM Ball at Park View. Gottlieb Henne's much heralded hard times ball was given at the Park View hotel Saturday night. There was a large crowd'in attendance, including many prominent citizens of Fox Lake. The spacious dance hall provided ample opportunity for the devotees'of the light fantastic to exercise their iimbs and keep time with the mjtaic which was furnished by Oeflling's orchestra of Johnsburg. A generous luncheon was served at twelve p. m., after which a midnight "cabaret" show was given to an enthusiastic audience, this being the second entertainment of this description that occurred Saturday evening. Christopher Lutz,-whom we have previously mentioned as exponent of bucolic life, vocalized a very pathetic rendition of ."Moonlight Bay" at Hal- pin's Main street."Cabaret," with Jas. Pedersen, embryo "Paderwiski," at the piano. Altogether the past week has been one of the liveliest-that we have seen for some time in the Fox Lake region. E. W ay Has Made its Way By ' It's Made HEN we began marketing the Inter­ national Commercial Car six years ago the one idea uppermost was to sella useful car* That meant--a car for country roads, that would safely cany a reasonable load, always get there and back, and last long enough to be very 'profitable. - Some of those first cars are still doing an honest day's work every day. All of them paid for themselves. None of them was so efficient as the car we sell today. Now is the time to buy an International Commercial Car For the merchant engaged in any business requiring much light hauling, or prompt deliv­ eries; for the business man who wishes to extend his territory j for the man who wants to cut down delivery expenses and at the same time be progressive and up-to-date, an Inter­ national Commercial car is a good investment. Simple, sure, powerful, it climbs hills, goes through mud-holes and sandy stretches, any­ where a team can travel at any speed from 3 to 18 miles an hour. Transmission is simple and direct. Brakes are powerful. Bearings are strong. A single lever controls the car. Write for catalogues and any information desired. International Harvester Company of America (Incorporated) ' Rockford .

U. had a very pleasant .meeting at Mrs. Spaulding's last Sat­ urday,. The next meeting will be with Mrs. Mary E. Hodge April 19. From the Mansfield paper we take the following: Rev. Beng. Brunntngv former pastor at McHenry, was very pleasantly surprised on his ninety- second birthday by a party of friends, who came in to spend the evening with him, bringing with them many nice presents as\well as dainty refreshments and flowers. The artist of the^town presented each guest with a fine pic­ ture of Mr. Brunnin£, which were left in the home for him to }>lace his auto­ graph thereon. Miss Bailey, the pas­ tor of the church, made some appro- priate remarks, to which he responded in his pleasing manner,thanking them for all their kindness. Mrs. Esther Carr, daughter of All- drew and Mary Harsh, was born in Warren county, Pennsylvania, June 28, 1839, and died at her homje in Chi­ cago April 2, 1913. When she was four months of age her parents moved to Illinois, making the journey with two teams. They settled on a farm near Ringwood, known now as the Harsh farm. Feb. 13, 1861, she was married to Jabes Carr of Ringwood and went to live on the farm now owned by J. C. Ladd, where they re­ sided until 1891, when they removed to their present home in Chicago. She was a member oi-tbe Eastern Star and W. C. T. U. and when health permit­ ted she'was active in that and all other good work, and will be sadly missed. She leaves her aged husband, with whom she has traveled life's journey fifty-two years, one son, Emory, one granddaughter, Mrs. John Kennett,' one little great-grandson, of whom she was very fond, and one sister, Mrs. Sarah Merchant, who lived near her, besides other relatives to mourn the loss of a good woman. Funeral ser­ vices were held at the home Saturday and on Sunday she was brought to Ringwood, where services were held in the M. E. church, Rev. Brill, a former pastor here, officiating. Mes- dames Bradley and Tuttle sang some very fine selections. Many of her old neighbors and friends were present. The floral offerings were many and beautiful. Then with sad hearts she was tenderly laid to rest in the Ring- wood cevetery' Her many friends here extend their ^heartfelt sympathy to the sorrowing family. / _ ADDITIONAL PERSONALS. Mrs. E. V.
