This meeting was one of the big events that will be recorded in the annals of the local court and long be remembered by its members. If for no otfier reason the meeting excels in importance as being the date of the first visit of the high court chief ranger, Thomas H. Cannon, and the high court secretary, John A. Bryant, who were present at the initiation Tuesday evening. This was the first opportunity the local court of Foresters has ever had to avail themselves of the presence of these high Pretty June Wedding Takes Plate At St. Mary's Church On June 15 A pretty June wedding was solemnized at St. Mary's church on Saturday, June 15, when Miss Jessica Hook, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Guy Hook, of Grayslake, was united in marriage to Mr. Theodore Shelton, son of Mrs. P. M. Weber of this city, before an assembly of relatives and friends. At four o'clock Saturday afternoon, to the strains of the wedding march played by Miss Dorothy Knox, the bridal party marched to the altar, where they were met by Father Charles Nix, pastor of St. Mary's church, who officiated at the ceremony. The _ bride was attended by her VENETIAN GARDENS' NEW SUBDIVISION BOLL POND HAS BEEN DRAINED Beautiful Subdivision Will Be Located In Center of McHenry, Reclaiming Mill Pond Land WJbrk was started Monday morning on what promises to be McHenry's newest and largest subdivision, to be known as McHenry's "Venetian Gardens."

SIX WIN PRIZES AT PAINT DEMONSTRATION The guessing contest which was recently held at J. J. Vycital's Hardware store, came to a close on Saturday night, June 15, which was the date for the Martin-Senour Co. paint demonstration. The glass container displayed in Vycital's window held an uncounted number of color card chips. Every R. Heeney, and the state court secre tary John S. Spelz, and by the presence of ReV. Fr. Meschler of Waukegan 4md Rev. Fr. Nicholas Smitt of Oklahoma. Father Smitt was a former resident of Johnsburg before he was ordained to the priesthood and is now visiting his relatives in this vicinity. During the evening a signal honor was shown Father Smitt when he was presented with a badge of honor by the high chief ranger, Thomas H. Cannon, as a recognition of his splendid work in organising a new court in Oklahoma. Forty-four Candidate# Forty-four candidates were on the floor during the initiation ceremony, eight of the number being from St. o'clock chicken dinner was served to sixty guests at the Weber farm, east of this city will be developed into one of the most beautiful and most modern subdivisions outside of Chicago. This property was purchased by a syndicate of local men from the Borden company and will also include the Lakeview subdivision, which was purchased by Kent A Company from William Bonslett several months ago. The subdivision will comprise about 256 lots, which will conform to the city ordinance in sise, containing blue prints of the enormous undertaking we find that there will be some very desirable lots on both sides of the channel, as well as on Green street, from Boone creek to the Unt.i ice cream factory. Jhere will also be lots along the state highway as well and other more quiet locations to be found also in the Venetian Gardens. A few of the lots have already been spoken for and there will probably be no difficulty in disposing of these choice lots when they are ready to be put on the market. There will be several entrances to the subdivision with one street running parallel with the channel from Green street to the state highway to furnish an ehtrance from Green street, while other streets willN open onto the state highway, two will enter from the Lakeview subdivision and another entrance will be found near the Chicago A Northwestern depot. The realtors are making arrangements with the public school to give them water frontage on the channel as they are doing also with the city of McHenry. There is bound to be a big demand for lots in this subdivision as the combined feature of summer resort facilities with city conveniences will attract a large number of prospective owners. The new subdivision will probably increase the population of Mcabout 6,000 square feet. ^H enry, ,b y. nearly 500 people which will Roy A.
