PETESGH McHRNRt ILLINOIS 4, ; L- '< t ,v ' £ » t * * r ' ?**.'? a* P : ^ 30 ; .-- We are often asked the above question. We'caiv say this: If we were fifty or more milei away from our customers we would not have to be so pqrticalar about quality, but as we expect to see them all again we try to sell things that satisfy. Many say cheap shoes last as long as good ones. This, if true, is more than we can understand. IF shoes were all the same for wear, why do com­ panies like the F. Mayer, from whom we buy most of our shoes, use the best and highest priced leather for their shoes? Others may be made to sell cheap. We aim to sell what is really cheaper for our customers. .<¥?

Quite a number of our horse flesh lovers were attracted to McHenry last Saturday afternoon, where two exciting horse races were pulled off on the ice of Fox river. Many of the hoys were pulling for John F. Freund's classy little steed to win the race,in which it was entered, but unfortunately they were obliged to come home disappointed, but with a i'eeling; that the best horse lost. In spite of the very disagreeable weather a good sized crowd greeted the home talent players at the par­ ish hall here last Sunday evening. The efforts of the players revealed the fact that we have here in Johns- burg some exceptionally good talent and the entertainment, as provided on this, occasion, could not be improv­ ed upon. On account of the fact that the weather'kept so many away, the performance will be repeated at the same place next Sunday night. Don't miss it. A chicken supper was enjoyed by a number of his friends at the home of Jos. J. Michels on Thursday evening of last week. The fore part of the evening was passed at cards, while the "eats" came at about the mid­ night hour.

Those who made up the gath­ ering were: John H. Miler, N. E. Barbian, Joe N. Miller, G. E. Schoel, Joe King, Stephen King, Stephen May, John A. Miller, Ed. Tonyan, Peter Freund, Peter Niesen, Jos.

He very wisely left most food alone for a day or two, his mouth being so badly swollen. Not a Submarine Late last Friday afternoon, just about the time that ye editor was cleaning up preparatory to leaving the office for the evening meal, we were brought back to our desk by the ringing of the telephone bell. A voice over the phone told us that a German submarine had been sighted Fox river at a point near the Honey Dew club house. However, upon further investigation we learned that Fred Weinschenker had gone thru the ice with his large automobile truck. Those who happened to be within hearing distance, say from two to six blocks, Were well aware of what had happened, as the air in the immediate vicinity of the accident was kept a very dark blue for several hours. W_£ have never heard of any­ one accusing Fred of speaking above whisper (t), but on this occasion his lung power was given all the vent that he possessed,- while his vocabu­ lary was taxed to its utmost capacity. With the assistance of kind friends, prominent among whom was a French volunteer, he was helped out of his predicament, but riot until three or jnore hours of the hardest kind of work had been put in.
