The Richmond committee gave out the information that they had already been given the support of many Chicagoans who own summer homes Lake Geneva, Wis., and with the united efforts of the business organization of the two towns it was hoped that the project could be put over. That hard road will be constructed all the way from Chicago to Lake Geneva, Wis., at an early date is quite certain, but the route to be takremains a conjecture. With Fox Lake and other lake county towns putting in a strong bid for this big traffic it is up to McHenry and Richmond to feet busy. From the very latest reports the new bridge at Nippersink near Fox Lake is now assured and with the completion of this structure a short cut to Lake Geneva will have been effected and instead of the travel coming our way most of the machines will in all likelihood take the new and shorter cut to Lake Geneva and this will be especially true if they get the hard road that way. Therp is only one way to safe the day for McHenry and that is to go after the hard road and if^wfe^Jj successful in landing this ihe^main travel to Lake Geneva will remain as is today, thru this village. 4 It is the intention of the two committees, representing this village and Richmond, to get in touch with our state representatives, with the idea that they use their influence with the state commissioners and thus grant us the road we are after. PETER HEIMER SELLS OUT Two Elgin Men to Take Over Buii ' new on July 1 Peter J. Heimer, who during "the past few years has conducted the buffet on Water street, which for so many years was owned and operated by his father-in-law, the late Anton Engeln, has completed a deal whereby two Elgin men will take over the business on July 1. The deal closing the business trans action was consummated last week and the new comers are Wm. Freyer and Gus Peterson, who expect to con duct the buffet as well as the hotel end. In fact, the new • firm expects to push the hotel end of the business and believe it may be made a paying venture. The sale includes all of the stock now held by Mr. Heimer, the bar room furniture and fixtures as well as the hotel equipment and furniture. It will be remembered that Mr, Heimer purchased the Diedrich home on Front street some time ago and he hopes to occupy same on or about July 1. When interviewed by Plaindealer reporter, Mr. Heimer had >fery little to say other than confirming the report that he had sold out, He has nothing definite in mind as to his future plans, but we feel safe in stating that Mr. Heimer will not remain in idleness long.

'-i; Wi THE individual balls it the high cost of living; the retailer calls it the high cost of doing business; the manufacturer calls it the high cost of production--but it means the same to all of them. It cuts down what's-left after experfees are paid*. War conditions haVe sent cost* soaring for the individual, for the retailer and for the manufacturer. Figures show that even before the start of the war, the expenses of running a retail store had more than doubled in the preceding 25-year period. Cost standards of even a few years ago no longer apply to any business. The most stable commercial enterprises are constantly undergoing readjustments to offset rising costs. Only by use of up-to the-minute cost s figures can any business now be kept on a safe and sound basis. This applies to the small business as forcibly as to the large enterprise. ; The cost of operating a bank has increased in the same way and to the ; same extent that other businesses have been affected.
