The outstanding feature in decora- 'tions this year, which leads in popu- Ilarity and gains increasing favor, Is 'the rock garden. Now, there are many various -types of rock gardens and among the many lovely wtes which may be seen In this vicinity it is safe to say that there are no two alike, each one carrying out the individual tastes of its M»s and builder, arid each one *> equally excelling in its own type of beauty. Perhaps one of the most elaborate gardens and one of the first to be Imilt in McHenry, which is outstanding in its originality, is the one to be seen «t the pleasant and hospitable ifiome of Mr. and Mrs. George Bohr. Built three years ago it has been jtdded to and improved each year until it carries out the idea of a sunken garden surrounded by a rockery in -which grow many varied plants and jn the center of which, Surrounded by •velvety green grass, ts a fish pool, over which has been built a miniature bridge of stones and cement. The 900I is lined with many small pebbles worn flat by the waves of Lake Michigan washing over them as they laid for years along its shores until 'ithey were finally brought to their new home. All of the many stones used in the garden were brought from adjacent territory by Mr. and Mrs. Bohr in their car and, judging from the generous size of some of the rocks, the car must have been a sturdy one, indeed. Among their collection are to be found petrified clam ^shells, tree roots and a piece of petri fled wood, while others represent a hear cub, » pig's liead and some look exactly like a sponge. They also have very beautiful piece of coral Inrought from the Pacific coast and an oyster shell which came from the "Pacific- TJhe work was done entirely "by the owners and denotes the expenditure of much time and effort in its arrangement Many unusual, as well as beautiful *tcks, have been left in this region "by the action of the glacier which covered the land many years ago, but -during the last few years they are becoming scarce, due to the demand for them created by the rock garden fad. Ahreqs Completes Rockery Another rock^p^ of distinctly different design is* the one just completed by Henry Ahrens on Route 61, at the southern edge of our city. This is a round rockery with many of the •tones cut from onte large niggerhead aBd stone steps leading up to the wild flowers and m(oss which ipeep out from the protection of the rocks. At the edge are two large and very life* like frogs, while surrounding it are flower pots, a bird bath and gazing globe,- all of which Mr. Ahrens will Mil, having taken over the agency for the garden pottery from an Ohio firm. The colors used in the material will not fade and will withstand the ' son and rain, making them ideal for garden use. While he has several styles en hand, Mr. Ahrens will also order anything desired by his customers. At "Hill Crest Acres" At Hill Crest Acres, the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ben Dietz on the shores of Fox river, we find two rockeries, one witfc a pool and the other built •SB a five-tier plan, modeled after the idea of the famous Buckingham fountain. One of the stones carries an -•outstanding design with three heads -pictured upon it. A lion's head is easily discerned at one side, while -nearby is seen the head of an old man, -or Santa Claus with his long white beard and at the top is the Statue •of Liberty wearing her crown and gazing upward into tlra sky. There are stones ol many varied : shapes, one exactly lilte a monkey's -face, a camel's head, a shield, skulls, •M large snail shell, while there are . others bearing the sign language of the Indians and also some pieces of genuine flint. Many flowers planted among the rocks are coming into bloom and at the crest is a bird bath JMftde of small pebbles and cement. At the other side of the house, Mr. juid Mrs. Dietz have a fish pool and ssmall rockery with the name, "Hill- «rest Acres" made around the edge of -the pool with small stones. Here the 'water trickles into the pool over a beautiful shell brought from the Cata- Jlina islands, while at one side is a rminiature cliff dwelling ornamented -with small stones and shells brought by Mrs. Dietz from the Pacific coast Mt Santa Monica, Cal. There are also to be found stones--from Colorado, • .-Arizona, New Mexico and other scenes of their travels which help to keep •£hese trips fresh in their memory. ^ '•> "Super-Service" Garden ~ '• Mayor John R. Knox is making -what promises to be a most attrac -4ive rockery and pool at his Super flervice station situated at one of Mc Henry's busiest corners. This rockery will probably be viewed by more ople during the season than any XSD BY TSAIH SCAR TERRA COTTA The northbound flyer on the Chicago A Northwestern railroad struck "and fatally injured Raymond Takulla, 81 years old, of Chicago at a crossing just south of Terra Cotta Friday afternoon' Takulla, who was a fireman for the Chicago & Alton railroad, left the home of his wife's father, Harry Rydquist, of Crystal Lake and was driving east on the road towards Terra Cotta when the accident occurred The injured man, uaconscious from a skull fracture, was rushed to the Woodstock hospital where he died that evening. T . • • iW" MP WATCHMAN: BURN FOX PAVILION BLAZE 4 f . STARTED ABOUT •rfIhMISsam pavilH, popular amusement center, was burned to the ground early Tuesday morning, the work of an unknown incendiary. The "Fox," owned and operated by Clarence Nisssr. of this* citv h&s bsG" famous throughout northern Illinois for the past ten years for its delightful entertainment and well-conducted dances and the meanest of all acts, that of arson, is resented by the people of McHenry in general. The night watchman, Thomas Aylward, 65 years old, who had been on duty only a short time, was kidnapped by four men who then fired the place and took him "for a ride." According to Aylward he was awakened about 1 o'clock Tuesday morning by four men who broke down the front door of the pavilion, playing a flashlight ia his face to prevent his recognizing them. He was ordered to dress hurriedly and a blanket or coat was thrown over his head and two men placed him in a car and drove a short way into a side road. Shortly afterwards, the other two in another car, joined them and the watchman was taken to Schiller park, where he was released at the comer of River road and Irving Park boulevard. During the ride the men did not talk and Aylward did not know that the dance hall had been burned until his return to McHenry. Upon his release he immediately notified the chief of police at Schiller Park, who in * turn notified Sheriff BAGCALAtTREAT# SERVICES SUNDAY The baccalaureate services were held at the Community high school auditorium on Sunday evening, May 24, with the thirty-four members of the graduating class as guests of honor. The seniors in caps and gowns marched to their seats while Miss Lois Esh played the march and Supt. C. H. Duker and the speakers of the evening, Rev. William O'Rourke of St. Patrick's church and Rev. Windham Bonham, pastor of the M. E. church, were seated upon the stage. Following the invocation by Rev. W. Bonham the mixed quartet sang "Sleepy -Hollow Tune," by Rilhard Kountz. The address of die evening was delivered by Rev. William O'Rourke and was an inspirational one, full of good advice and counsel for the young people. Among other good things the speakejr brought out the point that without a religious education the student's life is not complete and urged that the young people give heed to the teachings of the Bible and turn their attention to the development of the moral side of their character as well as to the educational. Rev. O'Rourke is an earnest and forceful speaker and held the interest and attention of his listeners through, out his discourse to its close when he urged the graduates to make of themselves good men and women of whom their parents and friends would be proud. This impressive address was followed by a vocal solo, "Just For Today," by Bob Peterson, a member of the junior class and the benediction by Rev. W. Bonham concluded the program. i 01 In Memorial!* M'HENRY LUMBfcB CO SELLS BONDBD LUMBER JUHIORS HOSTS TO SENIORS SATURDAY About one hundred students and members of the faculty were present at the banquet given by the juniors in honor of the seniors of the McHenry Community high school held at Justen's hotel Saturday evening. The address of welcome was given by Donald McCafferty, vice-president of the junior class, and the response was given by Julia McLaughlin of the senior class. Ned Woodman of Chicago entertained during the evening with some very clever cartoons. FIRE DESTROYS HALL AT STATE HOSWTAL . Fire on Sunday destroyed the recreation hall of the state hospital for the insane at Elgin, while approximately 800 patients, many of them considered the moet violent and unruly at the institution, were marched to the yard and'kept orderly by attendants. No injuries were reported. More than 100 of the mild patients were organized into a broom and bucket brigade to sweep the water from the kitchen and dining room. Others were permitted to help firemen stretch hose lines. The hospital has approximately 3,500 patients, committed from all parts of Illinois. They are housed in ward buildings, each isolated from the others. The fire was confined to the recreation hall main ^dining room and kitchen, which an in a two-story wing of the main administration building. Damage was estimated at %10,000. , According to an announcement issued today, the McHenry Lumber company has been elected a member of the Association Leaders of Lumber and Fuel Dealers of America. Membership in this association is by invitation only and necessitates a long established reputation for integrity, and a strict adherence to only the highest standards of business conduct.

Low Is Heavy The fire alarm was gtverf ShOUt 2 o'clock and the flames increased rapid, ly as the large frame building burned to the ground, s. tots! less, estimated at about $20,000. The McHenry fire department responded to the alarm and saved a small lunch stand nearby, but nothing could be done to save the building, which burned like tinder, the heat driving the spectators into a field across the road. The loss was partially covered by insurance. Count Orloff's orchestra of Chicago had been engaged to play at the dances on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays and all of the instruments of the organization were in the building and destroyed in the blaze. Many of the instruments were of gold, one of them alone being valued at $360. The fire is supposed to have been started with the aid of gasoline, a strong odor of which pervaded the place when the first spectators arrived. Five empty five-galfon cans were found nearby as well as several onegallon cans. % It is supposed that jealousy of some rival business concern is responsible for the kidnaping and arson and the owner, no doubt, has his suspicions of who instigated the plot Paul E. Bertram, deputy state fire marshal, was in McHenry Tuesday investigating the case. Mr. Neisen expects to rebuild the pavilion and is receiving manyurgent requests from McHenry people to get a new building erected as soon as possible. They have volunteered assistance in getting the matter rushed through so that the new place may be ready for business before the Fourth of July. DECORATION DAY / SERVICESJO A. M.

Frits, Harvard, Holiday Week-end Will Bring Many To Resorts Memorial Day is considered as the formal opening of the summer season and owners of hotels and amusement places are preparing for the crowds which will invade the rural regions over this holiday on the next week-end. Chicagoans are expected to make their first heavy invasion of the lake and river resorts at the end of this week to celebrate the holiday and it is expected that highways will be jammed witli traffic as motorists flock northward and usually many accidents result. The crowd of this week-end will be an indication of what may be expected during the season, it is said. Warmer weather will be necessary if the fishermen are to have any luck, for during the cool weather such as has existed during most of the spring, the fish do not bite with any enthusiasm. Chilly waves and high winds on the lakes have also made fishing unpopular thus far. While Memorial day is regarded as the official opening of the resort season, many Chicago families will not move out for the season until the schools close next month. i'.-x" Christian Mothers' Party The Christian Mothers of ! St. Mary's church sponsored a card party at the church hall" Sunday evening.

Covalt, President of the company, said "that in line with recent advancements and improvements in other lines of merchandise-- and in keeping with their policy of protecting their customers by handling unly material of known quality--his company will henceforth sell only 'certified material' backed by a $1000 surety bond, guaranteeing the count, quality, weight and measure of all material to be exactly as represented." It was further stated that through their affiliation with the Associated Leaders of Lumber and Fuel Dealers of America the- McHenry Lumber company would be in a position to finance the construction of an unlimited amount of new homes. These homes can be paid for In monthly installments, like rent Re modeling, re-roofing and repairs wiH also be financed; no down payment required on this type of work. It is said the plan will be especially interesting to those who already own the real estate on which they plan to build because it will enable them to start building their homes immediately, their lot, in many cases, constituting the down payment. An unusually attractive feature of the McHenry Lumber company's plan is the insurance that will be taken out for each individual who builds a home on the above basis. No physical examination is required. The policy will take care of the monthly payments for the duration of one year should the home builder be disabled by accident or a long illness. In case of the death of the home builder, the Junior Financing is paid up in full by the insurance company and presented to the heirs of the estate. The new plan is available only to those who wish to build a home in which they themselves will live. The amount of money which will be advanced by the MJcHenry Lumber company on homes, will be based on the character and earning capacity of the individual desiring to build. A home in excess <j[f the amount which he can afford will not be financed, it was said. This added improvement in the service of the McHenry Lumber company is part of a national effort being made by leading lumber dealers throughout the United States, and is being sponsored by the Associated Leaders of Lumber and Fuel Dealers of America. the G.
