A number of Wauconda residents are making regular trips to this vil­ lage of late. There's a reason. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Freund are the happy parents of a baby daughter, born to tnem on Wednesday of last week. Don't forget the Red Crosp benefit dance at Stoffel's hall next Saturday night. Show your patriotism by your attendance. Oil stoves, heaters and furnace fires were quite the general thing the first of the week. Who said that ft was; time to change 'em? G. E. Schoel of this place has made application for a position on Chicago's police force and is looking for an early examination and appointment. Walter Frisby has quit his job at the Oliver typewriter factory at Wood­ stock and isAnow employed at the Bowman bottling plant at RingWood. The top dressing on the Fox river bridge is beginning to peal and it will not be long before it will be nec­ essary to give the structure a new coat.

Fine progress is being made on the new sister home under construction on St. Mary's church ground*, The home should be ready for occupancy before the beginning of school next September. The carpenter work on the new home being erected by Frank J. Freund on Court street is progressing rapidly and with favorable weather same should be ready for occupancy the latter part of the summer. A Spring Grove man called at this office the other day and among other things informed us that he could buy much cheaper in McHenry than in his home town. That isn't such a bad advertisement for our business houses. The warm days of last week brought out quite a number of the resorters who own cottages along the river near McHenry. F. H. Schau of. Chi­ cago has already opened his summer home at Rosedale and is here for the season. Fred Weinschenker has been con­ fined to his home thru illness during the past week, but is again on the road to recovery. G. C. Boley has been driving the passenger truck be­ tween here and Woodstock during the former's absence. Our streets presented a real mid­ summer appearance last Saturday night, when the business sections of the towns were lined with automo­ biles and rigs, many of which came from a distance. As a result of this business men report big sales for the night. Local fishermen, who have made catches in Fox river of late, report that the person responsible for the story that Fox river fish are wormy had better come to McHenry and take a sample of the fish caught here. They could not be healthier nor better eating. Ray S. Howard and a gang of paint­ ers of this village are now at work painting the barns and other out buildings on the Geo. J. Sayer farm No. 1 at Pistakee Bay. They will also paint the buildings on farm No. 2. The joh is a big one and will require several hundred gallons of paint. Don't forget that Tuesday, June 5, is registration day and that every young man between the ages of twen­ ty-one and thirty, inclusive, is ex­ pected to register. The registration places in McHenry township will in all probability be the village hall in Mc­ Henry and Woodman hall, Ringwood. In keeping with the spirit of the day, the McHenry Golf club has given over its grounds for food raising pur­ poses. The plot has all been plowed up and is now under cultivation. The McHenry club is probably the first in this section to take this step and we heartily commend the members for the spirit thus shown. The business section of Centerville received its season's first sprinkling last Saturday afternoon, when a few of the boys took out the hose cart and gave the street a thoro drenching. The dust at that time had become so bad that it was next to unbearable. Since that time the weather man has I come to our rescue by giving us that loan prayed ior mn p» n OPERA HOUSE McHENRY THURSDAY, MAY 24 Hazel Dawn IN "Under Cover" SATURDAY, MAY 26 Rita Jolivet " ' '• IN- , "An International Marriage' SUNDAY, MAY 27 Mae Murray IN "Tie Big Sister" Give us your next order for en­ graved calling cardB and see what a neat job we can put out for you. Paint for protection, Paint to beautify. Use B. P. S. For sale at Petesch's. The hotels about town did & fine business last Sunday. An unusually large number of automobile parties stopped here for dinner on that day. A few of the more daring boys took a dip in Fox river last Saturday aft­ ernoon. They report the water just fine. However, we have not heard of anyone going in since then. A heavy frost visited this section Tuesday night. Early plantings were slightly damaged. It is possible that fruit trees, laden with blossoms, may not yield as bountiful this year as was predicted by many fruit growers in this vicinity. Mrs. J. C. Button, a former resi­ dent of McHenry, who for the past year or more has lived with her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Rorer, at Gil- man, 111., returned to this village last week and has taken up her home in the Chas. Givens residence on Elm street. i ;; t The cantata, "From Manger to Cross," given by the Symphony Chorus choir of Crystal Lake at the M. E. church here on Sunday afternoon last was largely attended and many com­ pliments on this great musical com­ position have been heard from those who attended. J. E. Pufahl, superintendent of the local branch of the Borden Condensed Milk company,lis again able to be up after a severe illness. While he is not yet able to take up his duties at the factory, he is gradually recover­ ing his strength and will soon be able to get back into the harness. His many friends will be pleased to learn this encouraging news. Complaints have again been made regarding the boys who have formed the malicious practice of breaking windows in barns and other buildings about town. These youngsters have been warned repeatedly and unless they stop the misdemeanor their par­ ents will be asked to make good the damages some of these days. Par­ ents should warn their children against this practice and thus avoid for theiAselves embarrassment and trouble. "UNDER COVER" Hazel Dawn and Owen Moore Starred By Famous Players When "Under Cover" was present­ ed to the public it was a foregone con­ clusion that it would be one of the greatest successes of the season, be­ cause it had two great essential elements--swift action and something distinctly unusual as its main plot. For these same two reasons it was an equally foregone conclusion, when the Famous Players Film company deter­ mined to make an adaptation of the celebrated play by Roi Cooper Me- grue for the Paramount program, that it would be an overwhelming success. And when Hazel ^Dawn and Owen Moore were chosen to head the cast of this distinctive production as their first co-starring vehicle, the fact that something extraordinary, even for the Famous Players, was to be produced became more than ever apparent.
