The recent rains have been a source, of delight to the farmers in this local­ ity. A few from here attended the ball game at McHenry last Sunday after­ noon. Our schools will open for the fall and winter term next Tuesday morn­ ing. A big attendance is looked for. Milk producers in this vicinity are looking forward to contract day. As usual, they are again expecting big prices. Many from here are planning on tak­ ing in the Chicago White Sox-McHen- ry baseball game at McHenry next Wednesday. A fine crowd of young people attend­ ed the dance given at Smith's hall here last night. Everyone present had a fine time. Quite a few from here attended the McHenry county fair at Woodstock last week, A few are also taking in the Libertyville fair this week. The Johnsburgh-McHenry road is in anything but first-class condition at this time. Ilie hill just this side of the John Smith farm is in exceedingly bad shape. Our people in general are following the European war moves with the greatest of interest. It is needless to say that everybody here is pulling for Germany to win. The planking on our bridge across the river is also becoming quite feeble and should be repaired. The unusu­ ally heavy traffic of the past two weeks hasn't helped it any. Five young Woodstock "wise guys caused considerable of a disturbance in town one night a short time ago. The fellows all come from families who are ever fighting for the dry cause, but by their actions here on this particular occasion one would judge them a bunch of Indians. An increase in business has been no­ ticed by our business men since the closing of the Fox river bridge at Mc Henry. McHenry's loss is Johns- burgh's gain. More automobiles have passed thru here since the closing of the bridge than we have seen in sev­ eral months before. Quite a bit of excitement was caused at Johnsburgh last Sunday evening, when a McHenry automobile ran into a buggy occupied by a couple of our young people. Fortunately, no one was hurt, altho both the buggy and automobile suffered slight damage. The auto driver and owner of the bug­ gy have come to an agreeable settle­ ment and all is again well. Next Wednesday is primary day. Most of the candidates for the differ­ ent offices have called on the voters of Johnsburgh and vicinity and from all reports Johnsburgh will turn out an unusually big vote on that day. In view of the fact that Jos. W. Freund of West McHenry is once more aspir­ ing for the Democratic nomination for representative in the general assembly his many friends here hare promised him their votes. A parish picnic by the parishioners of St. John's church will be held at Michels' grove here next Sunday, Sept. 6, the proceeds to go into the church fund. Arrangements for the event have been under way for some tim6 past and the several committees are working hard for the success of same. The big doings will begin about midday and will continue until late in the evening. Those who turn out are assured a good time and plenty of fun. Everyone is cordially invited to be present. Dr. Arnold Mueller, who has been our practicing physician during the past few years, disposed of his automo­ bile and other belongings and departed last Saturday for Germany, where he expects to join the army. The doctor, ever since the present European war broke out, has been deeply in sympa­ thy with the Germans and has always expressed his desire to be able to as­ sist that country/ It»is. only natural that our people as a whole/ wish him success and sincerely hope that the Germans will win out.

At one time this summer there were over 100 spot­ ted calla lilies in bloom all at once. In this bed the bulbs are twelve years old. 1KBUA COTTA.

LUMBER USED FOK OVER 200 YEARS and still in a perfect &ate of preservation was a common thing at the two big Lumber Expositions recently held at Chicago and New York. And when you consider that much of this lumber was never painted you can see this talk about lumber being good for only temporary structures is pure "bunk." Don't be misled into throw­ ing your money away on building materials claimed to outlast eternity when you can get lumber with such records of endurance as those quoted above ifor a lot less money.
