WALSH r , ' " "ife The work of the McHenry town football team again pleased a large following of fans at the local grid last Sunday afternoon, when our eleven trampled all over the hereto­ fore undefeated warriors of* Burling­ ton, Wis. The Badger state team may be a)l right in its class, but in McHenry it found a team that was so far superior in all departments of the game that there is little comparison between the two elevens. The final score of the contest was 54 to 0, with the visitor's clinging to zero end. As in the game with Woodstock, A gnaw again proved the big hero, his mighty toe and long gains being responsible for thirty of the locals' points. He registered McHenry's first touchdown in the first quarter of play, accepting a forward pass from Dorr perfectly. .1 Agnaw kicked goal. A few minutes later, "Moose" Boyle, our plucky little half back, went "over the top" for McHenry's second touchdown. Agnaw again kicked goal. The first quarter ended 14 to 0. During the second quarter the vis­ itors appeared to take a brace and held the home squad to one touchdown by Agnaw. Agnaw again, kicked goal. Score 21 to 0. The third quarter proved a tough fight all the way thru. For awhile it looked as if the Wisconsinites would cross the goal, but thanks to McHenry's line, which held like a stone wall and prevented the opposing team from going over. During this period of the game McHenry also lost much ground thru penalty, our boys' great­ est offense being on off-side plays. Only once during the entire game was Burlington penalized and to some of the rooters it looked as if the referee was giving the visitors the best of the deal. However, these little set-backs only spurred our boys on to faster and more accurate work and the old ma­ chine got back into its strides and pushed Harper over the goal line with the fourth touchdown of the day. Agnaw missed goal. Score 27 to 0. The last quarter of play saw the McHenry machine thrown into high speed and the touchdowns came with such marked regularity that the op­ posing teaim was thrown into a state of coma. Dorr and Agnaw divided the honors during this period, Dorr making two of the touchdowns or) long runs, while Agnaw went across for the other two. Agnaw missed one mi the goals in his last four attempts and thus the game ended 54 to 0. The locals, in spite of the fact that they have not practiced together sinee the previous game, showed a big im­ provement over their work^vfrhen they met the county seaters and the fans declare that it takes a pretty good team to lick them. Most of the members of the team are former high school players, who have not forgotten the things that they have been taught by Coach Dorr. They have steadily improved under his tutelage until today they have, mastered many of the fine points of the game, which accounts for their excellent showing last Sunday.

Pay Your Bills By Check One of our customers came into the bank not long ago and asked to see a certain check which he had issued, and which he de­ scribed. It was one that he had paid in the settlement of a business account. Through unintentional error he had not received proper credit for the amount He was given the check and with it proved that the J)ill had been paid. He was given credit for the amount because the check with the proper endorsement was accepted as a receipt. A checking account is the surest safeguard against paying &h obligation a second time. We invite you to qflll and let us ex~ plain more fully the advantages of a checking account. Wesft McHenry State Bank P.
