S«k Find Many Interesting ^ Points To Visit ? 'Mr. and Mrs. William G. Schreiner jMd sons, Maurice and Willis, returned Sunday from a two weeks' motor : and camping trip through the south, which was a very successful and interesting one. Many miles were covered during the two weeks of their trip and much beautiful and varied aeenery was enjoyed and many chang- '• tag conditions in the different parts of the country were observed. Nine states were visited during the two weeks and almost every state had something different to offer in the way of crops, soil, customs, etc., which made the trip a source of special interand information to the tourists. vf Stop Made at Cairo • ^Leaving McHenry the Schreiner family headed south and traversed the entire length of their native state of Illinois,'to Cairo, the most southern point in the state, which is located on m tongue of land below high-water mark and has been built on a bar of sediment at the entrance of the'Ohio rivr into the Mississippi rivet. Great levees have been built about the fcity 55 feet abovfe low-water mark, And a pumping system rapidly empties the , city of any seepage water that enters. •Cairo has become a great point of ex. change between the grain producing section of the north and the grain consuming region of the south. At Cairo theytrossed the Ohio river on a ferry ROUTE 61 SOUTH OF M'BENRY OPENED 1 Motorists Can Now Travel' «• New Road From State Line To TVrra CotCa • J" Tlte short stretch of'pavement, on Route 61 south of McHenry, from Main street to the corner at the top of Knox's hill, was opened for travel Tuesday morning, thus completing the cement highway from the state line north of Richmond to Terra Cotta, through Richmond, Ringwood and McHenry. \, The pavement is Tlow ' being laid south of Terra Cotta to the road leading into Crystal Lake. The distance of the cement ribbon from the state line south is about twenty miles and traverses three townships. Much of the highway was newly created as it ^as required to be 80 feet wide, instead 9^66 feet, as has been the rule heretofore in state road building. This is the first 80-foot wide highway to traverse McHenry county. The concrete is 20 feet wide instead of the usual 18 feet and the extra two feet of pavemctat contributes greatly towards the*safety and comfort of motorists. The shoulders and curbing, which are now being finished are eight feet on either side, offering an opportunity for vehicle travel. Heavy Traffic on No. 61 The ne^r state highway will carry a very heavy traffic, as it connects the lake region with Chicago and will be a direct outlet from the Illinois metropolis to the Wisconsin and Minnesota lake territory.

They passed through the coal mining country of Illinois and also through the corn belt, where wonderful crops give promise of a plentiful harvest. Through Missouri they entered Mississippi and Arkansas and crossed the llississippi river at Memphis, Tenn which is a large ami growing city situated on a bluff with the mighty liver at its base. As they traveled through the southcm states some of the most common sights were negroes and watermelons, it being the season for the ripe, juicy melons, which were being picked and shipped north, the largest ones selling STATE PROGRAM FOR PRfSBtVES VOTi ON BOND issue ON .

At the time of The Plaindealer going to press the body has not yet been found. Mr. Wanchure,'in company with L. and Joseph Kocsis, left Chicago this morning about 4 o'clock-for a day's fishing. Arriving at the Bald Knob hotel they secured a boat and rowed to a short distance east of Coon Island. Wanchure had been successful in Jtodkeral assembly and is to be submitffed to the people for a referendum vote at the general election, Nov. 6, 1928. "Briefly, the proposition is to issue $20,000,000 of state bonds to buy land for game preserves and sanctuaries. Approximately 2,500 acres of the cheaper, rough upland will be bought in every county of the state where such land is available. The plan also contemplates tfcie purchase of between 100,000 and 150,000 acres of overflow land along the rivers of the state. IEVY ORDINANCE WILITOTAL $11,600 COUNCIL IH SESSION MONDAY NIGHT Aid.. Kuox Accuses Mayor Frett of Not Presenting Communications To Council ' The McHenry city council met in an adjourned meeting at the city hall Monday evening of this week, tfith all the members present except Alderman Frisby.

Drinka started oi^t with a rush such as he pulled last week on Jimmie O'Brien, but he met the greatest avalanche of blows that he may ever run up against again in his boxing career. Story had everything from speed to science and you would imagine, that he must have been trying to stop Jack Johnson himself from the force of the blows. Drinka is good but Story easily took the match. The crowd would like to see Story with an even match and that will be some scrap. [.council. - Aid.

All of the seventeen supervisors reported except five. The trip wss planned and supervised by Supervisor Stepften H. Freund of McHenry township. TJhe veteran member of the board took great pride in letting his co-workers on the board know that this territory has the best • in the world to show when it comes to beautiful pieces of water and suprounding scenery. , Dinner At "Bald Knob" The trip was begun at McHenry, from where the Fox River was followed to Pistakee Lake, then a run made around Pistakee Bay, when the large Hunter bofct pulled up at the "Bald Knob" hotel pier. TTiis was near the hour set for dinner at this fine resort, conducted by Rudolph E. Johnson, and the members of the party by that time were all ready for the tempting repast which had been prepared by the management of the "Bald Knob." After dinner the guests spent a few minutes on the beautiful laws, with the waters of the lake on three sides. after which the boat continued on its journey into Nippersink Lake, through* the draw bridge at the C., M. & St P. tracks into Fox Lake, taking thi channel leading into the world renowned lotus beds in Grass Lake.
