The farmris now owned, by Mrs. Mary Carey of McHenry and is rented by Nels Pearson who has a hired man, Charles Rice and faifily, living on the place. In addition to the buildings, thirty tons of hay were burned, with four tons of bran, 450 bushels of oats, two horses and two cows. About fortyhead of cows. and , one horse g most pleasant saved from the burning barn. The cause of the fire is not known, but started in the west end of the barn in the hay. Only about fifteen minutes before the fire was discovered, two men with a truck had been in the bam, but saw no signs of the fire. The flames spread rapidly and Mr. and Mrs. Rice both worked hard to rescue the stock, until neighbors came to their assistance. The McHenry fire department \ps called and with the help of farmers, who brought cans of water from nearby farms, they were successful in saving two other buildings which would otherwise have burned.

MfcHenry was in the path of one of the worst dust storms in years which swept out of the northwest Monday. The tiny dust particles, practically invisible in themselves, dimmed the sun, making the atmosphere appear hazy and gav£ the sky a reddish tinge and sifted into homes*, with a short time out in the wind making a bath necessary. In the rural regions the drouth condition caused farmers to fear for their crops as there is no water in the subsoil with only about half the normal amount of rainfall being recorded thus far this spring. The condition is more threatening in the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and Minnesota, where dust storms in these states added to tfie severe burden of the drouth, ruined hundreds of farms and many thousand acres of land. For hundreds of square miles the sun was darkened almost to dusk and thousands of tons of fin« dust picked up by the-winds pf 60- mile an hour velocity, were carried through the air. The dust settled into hollows like drifted snow and motorists driving from the west on Tuesday reported they were forced to drive with their lights during the day because of the storm. About" seVenty-five members dt St. Clara's Court, No. 659, W.C.O.F., gathered at the parish hall on Wednesday evening of last wedf 'to witness the anual installation of ^officers for the ensuing year.

The installing officer was escorted to her station by two little girls, Lorraine MSchels and Katherine Gerasch, and two small boys, James Freund rnd Raymtond Smith, who were dressed in white, the girls with yellow ribbons in their hair and the boys with yellow shoulder bands. Miss Marion Krause, a guard of honor, introduced the installing officer, Miss Anna E. Phelan, who ^ras presented with a bouquet of flowers carried by the little girls, who composed the escort. The boys carried a basket of gladioli which was presented to the Chief Ranger, Mrs. Katherine Worts, upon her instidlation. The installing officer also received a gift from the court, each officer received a corsage of sweet peas and ferns when they were presented with their badge of office, and the Chief Ranger, Mrs. Katherine Worts presented gifts to the trustees, the installing musician and to members of the committee on good of the order. Miss Phelan was assisted in-the installation work by a guard of honor composed of Marion Krause, Anna and Elvera Blake and Jane Heimer, who were attired in white and carried the white and yellow spears of the order.

The robins are the cheery harbingers of spring that we are all so glad to see for we know when they arrive that spring *s here. Nowadays a great interest is taken in the birds and in their protection, bird houses are built for them and they »re fed and encouraged to build their nests about our homes. Teach your boys to study the birds and to become interested in their nest building and raising of their young for today the boys who shoot the birds are most unpopular and will incur the displeasure of every resident of this community. Spare the birds! SPRING WEDDING AT ST. MARY'S CHURCH A pretty spring wedding and one of the first of the season was solemnised at St. Mary's church at 10 o'clock Saturday morning when Mrs. Marie Regole, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Weith, who reside on the E. J. Fellows farm, west of McHenry, and Mr. Max Striedl of Batavia, were united in mar' ge with Father Nlr officiating at t'., ceremony. They wr knded by Miss Frieda Weitl, who .vompanied her sister as bridesmaid, and Michael Striedl of Chicago, who acted as best man for his brother. The bride was charming in a white linen suit with white hat and accessories and wore a corsage of sweet peas and ferns. The bridesmaid, Miss Frieda Weitl, wore a blue crepe gown with tan hat and other accessories and also wore a corsage of «w«et peas. Following the ceremony a reception wms held at the home of the bride's parents where dinner and supper were served to about twenty-five ADVERTISE SHOW SPECIAL NUMBERS OH _ PROGRAM Who doesn't love a parade and especially when it is put on by children of the grade school, as on Wednesday afternoon, in advertising the health program to be given at the Empire theater on Friday and Saturday of this week. , The parade was headed by the pep after which came the public grade school project and St. Mary's school project, followed by grade school children and automobiles. "Annual Program Every year about this time the annual health program is put on with the proceeds going to reimburse the health fund which is used in corrective work, including eye and tonsil treatment and in supplying the milk used in the schools. This year the program will be given at the Empire theatre on Friday afternoon, Friday night and Saturday night of this week and in addition to numbers given by the students it will include motion pictures with "Robinson Crusoe," "Mickey Mouse" and "Man Against Microbe" as titles of the films. The pupils of the grade school are having a contest in the sale of tickets for these shows as we told you last week and it is hoped that parents and the public in general will purchase tickets at the regular movie*prices and do their bit in helping along the health work in our schools. Man Against Microbe" is a new sound film produced by the Metropolitan Insurance company and is like an airplane trip into the past, into the history of man's conquest of disease. It takes us back 300 years to the days when an epidemic or plague was a terror from the hand of an unknown and unseen destroyer. The Dutchman, Leenwenhock, marveling at the new world of tiny living beings revealed in drinking water and tf»e scurf of the teeth by the crude microscope he has made, is the next glimpse into this past. There follow in quick succession glimpses of Plenciz guesting at the relatives and friends. Guests were importance of this revelation and of present from Chicago, Pennsylvania, I Pasteur in his laboratory engaged in Batavia, Geneva, Maple Park and Huntley. In the evening the party motored to Batavia, where a hall had been rented, and dancing wus enjoyed with about seventy-five guests present. Mr. and Mrs. Streidl will live on Prairie street in Batavia, where he is employed. ( ATTEMPT TO ROB ROUND LAKE BANK A quick-shooting banker, a swarm of vigilantes and a barrage of lead garden tools sent three bandits packing after an attempt to rob the bar.k at Round Lake Tuesday. Leaving one man at the wheel of a Following are the special the researches that were to revolu t ionize medicine. Then we see Lister and Koch as their important discoveries are shown. One of the most dramatic of these glimpses into the past is the Christmas eve scene where a little girl, sick with diphtheria, lies in a Berlin hospital fighting for her life and the part Dr. von Behring took in her recovery. The scene comes back to the present with a glimpse of modern immunization and ends with a prophecy that the great war of man against the microbe will continue until man, unhampered by the scourge of sickness, will achieve fullness of life and happiness. numbers POPPY DAY OCCURS SATURDAY, MAY 26 McHenry will be called upon to honor the World War dead and give aid to the war's living victims by wearing memorial poppies on May 26. This day, the Saturday before Memmorial Day, will be "Poppy Day* throughout the tThited States and wiH be generally observed by the wearing of the little red flower of Flanders Fields. Observance of "Poppy Day" here will be directed by the America^ Legion Auxiliary, Mrs. Marie Schiessle, president of the local Auxiliary Unit has announced. Women of the Auxiliary will distribute poppies on the streets and receive contributions for the welfare and relief work among the disabled veterans and their families. Organization of a corps of volunteer workers to distribute the memorial flowers throughout the city is going forward rapidly under the leadership of Mrs. Oleta Culver, chairman of the Auxiliary's poppy committee. A large supply of poppies has been ordered from government hospitals, where disabled veterans have been given employment during the winter rnd spring making the little paper flowers. - The purpose of "Poppy Day" is to give everyone an opportunity to pay individual tribute to the men who gave their lives in defense of the nation. The little act of wearing a poppy touches the individual more closely than large public ceremonies in which he is only a spectator and awakens a realization of the individual responsibility to the nation, greatly needed at this time. "Poppy Day" also gives everyone an opportunity to share in the vast work which the American Legion and Auxiliary are doing for the disabled men, their families and the families of the dead. TAX BILLS RECEIVED HERE THIS WEEK black Chevrolet coach, two men entered the bank about 9:30 a. m., and asked E. C. Weber, bank president, for a job. Then suddenly one announced: "This is a stick-up!" "The hell it is," said Weber and reached for his gun. Two bullets from the sentry at the \ tor. door hit the bullet-proof glass surrounding his cage as he reached for the opening and fired back three times. The robbers fled but citizens had heard the call to arms and were swarming around the bank. A bullet hit one robber as he ran for refuge towards a lumber yard and bis progress was stopped as he was hit over the head with a rake by a citizen working in his garden nearby. The other two sped away in their car. The wounded man was taken to the hoF^ital in Waukegan.

The last of the tax bills were received Saturday with about half of the bills sent out earlier and collections on these have already started. Taxpayers who pay their first and second installments before May 1 will be given a refund of H4 per cent on their second installment, it was announced by Harry F. Peteit, county treasurer. The refund is being offered throughout the state-as an incentive to make oomplole tax payments early. A penalty of one per cent is added on all first installments that are not paid before May 1, and an additional one per cent is added each month. With the offer of the refund on the second installment providing both installments are paid before May 1, it is believed many property owners will pay up in full before that date. The offer of a refund means extra work for the treasurer's office, but i' is the result of recent legislation passed to speed up the paying of -taxe«. Taxes may be mailed or taken to the office of the county treasurer at Woodstock or paid at the local bank WEEKlY EXCHANGE HEMS ONNTEREST TAKEN FROM COLUMNS OF OUR EXCHANGES Louis J.

That is long enough for any person to serve in public office and have the care of being under bond in handling public money," Lobdell said. There is-sckme good news for the Grayslake fishermen, because, due to the efforts of John L. Tobias and Ray Pester, eleven cans of bass, crap pies and sunfish were brought to the lake» last week Friday, and there will be no need of waiting for the fish to grow, as they are large enough for eating. The eleven cans contained between 5,000 and 6,000 of the finny inhabitants, and came from the Grove hatchery. Mr. and Mrs. A. H.
