COUNCIL HEAD GETS ‘PEEVED’ Doesn’t Want Assistance in Buying Apparatus. If the city council recovers its dignity nnd gets peevishness directed at Dwight S. Ritter, city purchasing agent, it will likely go ahead with the program of motorizing the hre department of the city. Gustave Schmidt, president, of the council, called Ritter on the -‘green carpet - ’ a'few days ago and wanted to know why Ritter had sent out a letter to a number of firm who had Are apparatus to sell, telling their representatives not to call on the president of the couu i'tt and the members of the board of safety, until they should, get word from Ritter President Schmidt said that neither he nor the other officials wished to l>e ignored in such a way and asked what Mr. Ritter meant by it. Mr. Ritter explained that inasmuch as no bond issue' habeen arranged and the city was not ready to buy motor equipment, he thought he would be doing the overworked city officials a good turn by keeping the motor equipment salesrften away from them until such a time as the city would be actually ready

The answers are now dribbling in and the tenor of them is that the salesmen understood the letter to mean that they were not to bother the council and other officials until the proper time. Thus, the dignity of tne council will probably be saved and the city will eventually get the motor apparatus. The estimated cost of motorizing the

Huh, Jewels Were in House All th’ Time! . • HAMMOND, Jnd., July 20.—The Whiting $5,000 diamond mystery has gone glimmering and Whiting and Chicago detectives were called off the case late Wednesday.

Look Ahead The more you save and invest in r?hl estate during this period of-prosperity and high wages, the more you will have later on. Don’t follow the advice of file fellow who has nothing and probably never will have anything. The shrewdest and most conservative investors on earth put their savings in real estate. Be wise and follow their example. The quicker you get your lot and get it paid for the sooner you will be able to get a home of your own and become your own landlord. Before you :ct your lot paid for building material will" be much cheaper. Act at. once while you have the opportunity. m

Bea Land Owner Own vour own home. Bea full-grown American citizen. The influential citizens in any community are all property owners. When you get your lot and get it paid for you will be that much nearer a home of your own.
