Mrs. Maggie Thomas retnriMd to her home at Racine, Wis., last Suiday after a three weeks' visit in the home of her father, Theo. Meyers. A few of oar young people drove to McHenry l*st Sunday evening, where they saw Flora DeVoss in "The Imp of Satan" at the Central. J. B. Hetterman reports the sale of a six cylinder Oakland touring car to Jos. J. Freund of this place. The delivery of the car has already been made. Many of our automobile owners, especially those who have recently come into possession of new touring cars, took advantage of the beautiful weather and enjoyed Sunday at "tour­ ing and sightseeing. ' The old store building, which for many years was occupied by the C. M. Adams store, is novv a thing of the past. The wreckage is now being cleared away and the place will, ere long, present one of the beauty spots of the village. A number from this place attended the funeral of Peter Schaid at St. Mary's Catholic church at McHenry last Thursday morning. The funeral of Mrs. August Huff of Spring Grove yesterday morning also took a number of our people to that village. Our people were very much sur­ prised as well as saddened last Thurs­ day when the news reached here that St. Mary's church was burning. Our people went thru the same experience eighteen years ago and they well knew how to sympathize with the parishioners of St. Mary's at Mc­ Henry. The Young Ladies' sodality of St. John's Catholic church here announces a May party, which is to take place at the parish hall here on the even­ ing of Wednesday, May 1. The young ladies are already laying their plans for the coming event and an enjoyable time is sure to prevail. More par­ ticulars later. • Work on enlarging the basement at the parish hall here has been at a standstill for some time past. It now looks as if there will be nothing doing until after the busy season and men and teams will again be obtain­ able. It is the intention to make the basement sufficiently large for a meeting place and possibly a dining hall. After spending a week with his u ifa here, Frank Mathieu left Tues­ day for Chicago, from which city he started out on a long theatrical en­ gagement, which will carry him over the western circuit. His first stop will be at Minneapolis, Minn., and from there will make all the leading theatres in the big western cities. He expects to be gone for several weeks. The last note against St. John's parish here was paid on Monday of this week* and today the parishioners are rejoicing over the fact that the entire church property is entirely free of debt This is indeed a most grati­ fying showing for the beloved pastor and the good people of his flock. Three years ago, when the present pastor took charge of the parish here, there was a total indebtedness of sev­ eral thousand dollars, while the prop­ erty was sadly in need of improve­ ments. The heating system was in a very bad state, while the windows and roof were also in anything but first- class shape. Then, too, the sister house needed attention. All told over $4,000 were spent in making repairs that year, while $2,000 were spent in repairs the following year. Today all of the church property, with the pos­ sible exception of the floor and base­ ment of the parish hall, is in first class condition with all debtfe entirely wiped out. The pastor and parish­ ioners have good reason for rejoic­ ing as they all know the hard work involved, in bringing about. 4tm~ diti«. - f T^ISsirthegueet r^^es.'
