The marshal!, in his capacity as etreet commissioner, made his formal reouisltlon of the trustee of Hobart townshiD this morning for such ma terials and articles that may belong to Oarv bv reason of her acouisltion of certain lands in Hobart township. Mr. 'Wild,'" the' ""trustee,' -was found to be pleasant gentleman, who Is evidently a very capable official. He conducts a lnrir furniture business in Hobart. He listened very attentively to the requi sition and promised to take such steps In the, matter as he could at once.

The building is to have ten large class rooms and will be modern ami well equipped in every respect. This Is in keeping with the-other public utilities that are being planned and put in here and should brinsr to us a class of people that will te a credit to their city. The latest innovation and also eva sion of the law is accredited to the fertile brain of the attorney employed bv the proprietor of the "Dump" at Tolleston. Fndcr the law, Louis Gor don cannot peddle his vile concoctions in Gary, but he can deliver the stuff if be H.hs an order for it. Hence, since that is true, he is advised that the easiest way to circumvent the watchfu' oiilcers in Gary, is to get the orders. T ..s is done by having the words "Do liver me one case of beer, printed on the back of a large number of postal cards. X nese are men iianut-u out m generous bunches to his customers, who in turn give them to any one that they may think want the liquor. He simply stgns his name at the bottom of the card, for which a line is provided, and malls the card. It being already addressed to K Gordon, Tolleston. lnd.

Crown Point high school football team goes to play Michigan City high school on Saturday. Oct. 6.

Crown Point has a light team, but the boys are diligent in practice and learning the points in the new rules. Considerable feeling is being stirred up here over the recent lease of the fair grounds to Donahue & Sherman, and tiie fair officials are coming in for severe censure from the public. The new lease is for a period of ten years it an annual rental of $150. The rhiuse that is most severely criticised is one that provides for the payment it 20 per cent of the proceeds from gate admissions of any public gathering other than the fair. 10 per cent f this amount goes to the lessees. When It is remembered that ten per cent (if the proceeds of the annual l orester picnic and the athletic meet will nearly equal the rental price, the cause of the criticism is easily seen. The Foresters are loud In their denunciation and say they will hold no more picnic at the fair grounds, and it is probable that Crown Point will also lose the athletic meet. It is rumored that an effort will be made to have the lease declared invalid, even if resort to law is necessary. Hobart News Mrs. day in II. W.

Back in the early '50's there lived in the little town of Francestown, N. H., a large family by the name of Foote. They were illiterate, but honest, hardworking people, and the boys were often hired out by the neighboring farmers. Two of the boys, Jim and Dan, were twins, closely resembling each other. They wer the butt of many goodnatured jests. From "Old Ike," their father, they received a little strain of negro blood, which showed itself in speech and good humor. Dan went to war, and, returning, felt himself to be a hero. He finally decided that the family name was not quite good enough for him, so he had it legally changed from Foote to Bartlett. Shortly after this he appeared one evening in the little country store. The usual number of loafers were present. One of them, thinking to torment him by using his old name, said: "Why, how do you do, Mr. Foote!" Drawing himself up to his full height, Dan replied, with great dignity: "You're mistaken in the man, sah! I'm Mr. Bartiett, sah. Yon must be thinking of my twin brother, Jim. He's no relation of mine, sah!"

An Oil Nec!cctcd Training cf a ChildPoint In the -The Woman Who Worries to Ee Net Elamed :: :: ed 1 anc "Is it necessary for Bobbie to make a noie like that?" nsked little Mrs. Nervous pently of her friend. Eobblt le was standing iu front of the window, m and jerking the tassel of the shade down and reiteratinsr, "Kailiing. rai-r.kig." in a inonotouons ohant. He liad alreidv repeated the refrain twenty times and showed no sins of wanting to stop when poor Mrs. Nervous put in her plea for silence. Hobble's mother looked a tril'.e Injured, but she sent liira into the next room, where li promptly be-an to drum an .ib:--eutininded tattoo on the wall. "You know, my dear, you can't absolutely suppress a child," the mother observed. "It's children's nature to make noise." "But meanincle's noise" Mrs. Nerv ous lesan hesitatingly. Slio was rewarded by having the con versation changed abruptly. "I don't care," she remarked to the family doctor the next time Le called. "You are a physician and a man of sense. I wish you would toll me if it reallv was necessary to Bobbie's de velopment that he should make that hideous, droning sound." Not a Bit of It. "Certainly not, my dear madam!" answered Dr. Pillworthy crisply. "And if you will excuse my using a strong Anglo-Saxon expression, his mother was a fool for allowing the child to acquire nervous or absentmlnded trieks so early in life. This talk of not repressing the child nnd of allow ing him to expand freely is all tommyrot. There is no sense in allowing a child to fidget in the street car, drum on the window panes or mutter gibberish, or, worse still, to ask rapid fire questions. It can learn to sit still and wait until it gets home before asking questions. And as for Kinging, yelling and screaming like a wild Indian, these "itAI-NXNG RAI-NING !" habits are entirely at the discretion of the mother. If she wants a child that puts Jier nerves on edge all day long, why, it's up to her that's all. But it isn't necessary to a child's development. Dear me, no! You can't argue that any more than you can claim that a noisy woman is more healthy than a quiet one." It Is Not a Fault. Tity the woman who worries. She can't help it. It is really more physical than mental and shows she is overworked or on the verge of being ill. The. other Sunday I was in a park by the riverside, and I could not help listening to the conversation on the bench next to mine. It was occupied by a man, his wife and his little boy. The boy began to wander around after the fashion of his kind, and at every etep he was followed by the anxious eyes of the mother. In vain the boy's father tried to Interest her in the boats, the view, etc. No use. She was worrying har head off about the boy. "Io yon notice that steam launch?" he observed. "Yes, desr," she answered nervously. (She was looking in exactly the oppo site direction from the river.) "Don't you think that is poison Ivy over there? Johnny, don't you touch any of those plants! Come away from there!' "And, I say, that's a great sail boat" "Y-es." fEyes still fixed on Johnny, who was approaching the edge of a bank.) "Some day we might have a sailboat l!ke that if "Johnny, don't try to climb down that bank by yourself; you'll fall" "Oh, let him alone. He's air right As I was saying about the boat" "Oh, there he goes out of sight! Ed ward, I jut can't help it. I've got to jro and watch bow he Is getting down.' The man sighed wearily, and, taking sis hat and cane, rose. "Come, let's S3 home," te remarked sulkily. MAUD TvOBINSOX
