TWO ELECTIONS ROUNDS ARB BEING MADS BY CANDIDATES ; FIRE SATURDAY ' AT BAY FARM *Tfie carpenter shop and blacksmith shop on the W. E. Skidmore farm at Pistakee Bay were destroyed by fire about 8:30 o'clock Saturday evening. The fire started from an explosion in the basement of the carpenter shop and spread rapidly through thg paint : and oil stored there. Mrs. Henry M. Smith, wife of the manager of the Skidmore farms, saw the flames through a basement" window and called her husband, who, finding that the flames were out of control, put in a call for help. The McHenry, Richmond and Fox Lake fire departments responded to the call and were able to keep the blaze from spreading to the other rtearby buildings, although one side of the roof on a new barn was burned. The • shingles were fire-proof, however, and kept the fire from spreading through the barn. Mr. Smith, who was without help at the time, turned out the valuable cattle that were in the barn and none were injured. Many valuable tools and equipment were destroyed by the fire. The buildings were insured and will be rebuilt soon. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Supt. C. H. Duker, Dr. and Mrs. A. I. Froehlich and daughter, Adele, and JHr. and Mrs. Carl Weber visited Grant High school at Fox Lake Friday evening where they heard a debate between students of Grant high school and those of Maine Township High school. Supt. Duker acted as one of the judges of the debate . Miss Adele Froehlich assited in the evening's program wi^h a marimba t-olo, accompanied by Mrs. Carl Weber. - Third quarter exams are claiming the spotlight for the week at the local high school with Thursday and Friday devoted to them. There are ho exemptions this quarter and every, one is busy preparing for the4 big event. Members of Supt. C. H. Duker's public speaking class are giving speeches before the assembly of high school students this week. Coach Bill Chandler was guest oi honor at the Athletic banquet Thursday nightt The banquet this year was made more of a public ^ffair and -Was most successful, judging from the large attendance. The meal was nerved by Miss May Justen and her cooking class and was a big undertaking for them. An orchestra composed of about sixteen pieces is being 'organized at high school by Carl Weber. Their first public appearance was made at ;the Athletic banquet Thursday night. "•Jftembcrs of the orchestra are Agnes tjkischke, Rosa Popp, Curtis Newman. :(r<?orge Vales, Lorena Esh, Chester Howard, Charles Vycital, Adele JVoehlich, Harold Vycital, Mrs. Carl Weber, Arlette Newman, Victor Miller, Russell Franzen, Bob Peterson, Marguerite Johnson and Stanley Vycital. ^ Although this orchestra plays under the name of the high school, a- part «f its membership is composed of musicians outside of the school. With -Hhe capable musical talent of high school students this hardly necessary. " Election affairs in the various .cities in McHenry county will claim tho spotlight, from now until the da,wn' of election day for township officialdom April 2 and the. day for Choosing officials on April 16. . » , •The city of McHenry. Tyill beIMF exception' to this rule -a«d*'tarididates are already making the rounds, giving out their cards and cigars and greeting their friends and acquaintances in pre-election style. % The women voters are beginning to wonder just where they come in on this pre-election campaign question for while their vote is considered as good and is as- much sought after as that of their better half, yet they do not smoke cigars and have failed, as yet,, to receive anything as a *ubstitute. * Town Election, April 2 With four candidates in the field for the office of supervisor the township election on April 2 promises to be an exciting one with probably a record number of votes cast- In addition to this there will also be a fight for the office of highway commissioner. • • For supervisor, Stephen H. Freund is being opposed by Nick Weingart, Arnold Rauen, and Will Toriyan while for road commissioner, "Butch" Freund is being opposed by "Louis Schroeder. For justice of the peace, Eber Bassett and M. J. Walsh are the candidates. E. C. Hawley of Ringwood, justice of the peace at Ringwood, died last week, leaving this township without a justice, as "^xrK 3. Welch had previously resigned. City Election, April 16 Although Mayor Peter Doherty will have no opposition for his re-election as mayor at the city election on April 16, yet there promises to be -lively competition for the office of city clerk with Earl Walsh running against Peter Neiss, while in the first and second wards three candidates in each ward are in line for two jobs. There will be no agitation of the daylight saving question this year which McHenry is scheduled to observe along with other towns in the county: Harold Bacon, for city treasurer, and William Bickler for police magistrate, will have no opposition while two new aldermen in the third ward will be elected without opposition. In Crystal Lake we find the women becoming interested in political affairs with two women, Mrs. Ollie Geer, sister of« George H. Johnson of McHenry, and Miss Helen Diekman, seeking the city treasurer job. Two full tickets are in the field at Crystal Lake, with the mayor, J. A. Peterson, "being opposed by Paul E. Bertram, former assistant 'state fire marshal. In Miarengo, also, two candidates have filed for mayor, but in other county cities, including McHenry, Woodstock and Harvard, no contests for mayor have been slated, although ttyere is considerably opposition in aldermanic jobs.
