WILLIAM PRIES RETURN FROM WINTER IN FLORIDA 'GLEAN-UP WEEK' BEING SPONSORED BY LOCAL LIONS CO-OPERATING WITH CITY COUNCIL AND SCHOOLS i Primary election figures in Hie four McHenry precincts proved very interesting Tuesday night, when the returns were tabulated. Due to contests on some of the Democratic committeemen, many Republicans stepped up to the judges and asked for Democratic ballots. In McHenry 1 (Ringwood), there were 182 ballots cast, of which 132 were Republican and 50 Democratic. Johnsburg voters formerly voted at Ringwood, but now has a precinct of its own. Vote Divided Equally McHenry 2 cast a .total of $46 ballots, divided equally between the two parties, 173 Republicans and 173 Democrats. McHenry 3, which was divided on aocount of the new precinct, produced a total of 558 votes, with only 114 Republican and 444 Democratic ballots. In this precinct there was a stiff fight on the Democratic committeerfian., Henry Miller, chairman of the Democratic , county central committee, was out for re-election in the precinct, but lost out by a margin of 45, the figures being 242 for Edward J. Thennes and 197 for Miller. v McHenry 4 (Johnsburg) cast a total of 295, only one vote difference between the two parties, 148 Republican an# 147 Democratic. Another committeeman fight occurred in Nunda 1 (BarreviUe), where Robert Knox, the present committee- (Continued on laat pafe.) Mr. and Mrs. Wra. Pries returned home after a three months' vacation in Florida. They left Groveland, a city in central Florida, Thursday morning, April 7, and arrived in McHenry Saturday evening. Although it was quite Warm, they experienced fine weather for the greater part of the journey. However, they did run into a severe thunder storm 'in Atlanta, Georgia. The next day, after leaving Atlanta, they passed through the section of the country recently devastated by cyclonic storms and floods. The water was still quite high; in some places coming over the running board of the car. At Perry, Georgia, they were forced to make a detour of ftfty-two miles because of washed-out roads. The flood extended to Indiana. The Wabash and Ohio Rivers left their banks and inundated the land about. Considerable difficulty was experienced in getting home from Chicago. As they neared that city they heard radio reports warning motorists of the deep snow. They thought these reports exaggerated, but soon discovered they were not. On the Lincoln highj way the snow was higher than the car. Mr. Pries was forced to turn back four times before he got home. The city in which they stayed, Groveland, is noted for its orange groves and truck gardens. The citrus fruit crops were very large this year. Oranges sold for as low as sixty-five cents a box; Grapefruit, seventy-five cents. Mr. and Mrs. Pries spent a,most enjoyable vacation. While there, did considerable fishing and swimming.

You know the datesnext week--April 18 to 23. "Clean-Up Week" was thought out by leaders in the local Lions Club. It is being carried out by little boys and big boys--little girls and big girls. Business men, realizing the importance of a nifty looking city, have approved the idea from the beginning. Home owners and tenants alike have taken to the idea with the finest spirit ever seen. School children, under the leadership of their teachers, are in th^ mood to put this progressive idea over the top. Attractive posters have been designed by the following grade school pupils:! Edwin Corey, Billie Phalin, Chester Grant, Bob Schaefer, Warren Jones, Genevieve Ferwerda, Louise Gerard, Marilyn Mertes, Eugene Mertes and Robert Bacon. Special buttons have been provided for grade school, work Clean-Up Starts Tuesday j On Monday, a committee will tour the city and inspect various vacant] lots1 that will need special attention.) On Tuesday the fun will begin in | earnest. The city council will furnish trucks. School boys will bring rakes and shovels to join the older men in ridding the city of unsightly debris. Those in charge have specified that all rubbish must be placed in some sore of a container. Alderman Joseph Regner, who is giving much time and effort to the project, has requested that any person, who is not physically able to place their rubbish on the curb line, notify him and assistance will be provided.

Dispose of the winter's accumulation of rubbish and ashes. 3. Report to Joe Regner the location of any lots which have been improperly used as a dump for tin cans, etc. 4. Make a renewed effort to get trees started on the tree banks of your lawn. 5. Tear down any old out buildings on your property which have lost their usefulness. 6. Paint wherever possible. 7. Use the lawn-mower fredtjr this summer. The committee has pointed out that the "Clean-Up Wieek" idea is a national issue, with a special non-commercial bureau set up to distribute literature and various types of assistance to cities. A clean, healthful city is a beautiful city. That is just what McHenry is-- and that is just what McHenry will continue to be. The local board of health has expressed a willingness to cooperate with the city council, Lions Club and all those making an effort to make McHenry outstanding for neatness and cleanliness. The board of health also suggests that citizens secure containers for garbage and refuse and have same removed from the premises at regular intervals. This plan will undoubtedly bring about healthier conditions in the city.
