that a trip to Virginia should Include

in addition to the sights that will be seen In the immediate vicinity of Norfolk an opportunity to see Niagara Falls, the magnificent city of Washington, and a daylight trip down the Potomac and beautiful Chesapeake bay. These places will doubtless be included In the Itinerary and It Is still a matter of do l lev as to wi:nt nthf-r

places of Interest will be visited. There is so much of historical interest and there are so many places that are attractive and beautiful that it will be a hard matter to decide just what places will be included In tho list and what ones will be left out. However, representatives of several of the railroads will be in the city In a day or two and the matter will be taken up with them and their advice will be valuable in terruining the route. V As It seems assured t. "Sr-e will

be a great many Ilammoi people" in addition to the winners of the contest who will take advantage of the low rates to make the trip, an oppor

tunity will be given any of them who have this trip in mind to help decide upon the route. As the party will be at the exposition several daj's there will be plenty of time to decide upon the side trips that they may desire to take individually after they arrive there. It is said that one of the splendid

things about the location of the Jamestown exposition is the fact that it is In such close proximity to such places as Old Point Comfort, Fortress Monroe, the navy yards and other points of interest that no one misses when they take a trip east. It has been practically' decided to make the date of leaving for Jamestown, August 1, although this date may be changed later on. The date will also have to be arranged to suit a majority of the young ladies who are to take the trip. In a few days a conference will probably be arranged at which all who expect to take the trip will be represented and then a great many matters nf thU Irln will i

Times to make this trip as enjoyable as possible and no pains will be spared to give the tourists the time of their lives. The personel of the party has a great deal to do with the success of a journey of this kind and the Lake County Times is fortunate in having such a fine lot of young ladie3 to represent them on this easter tour. These young ladles together with the Others who have already decided to go

will make up a party of which Hammond will be proud and those who for various reasons will remain in Ham

mond will be interested In reading the accounts of the adventures enroute. There will be more definite Information about the route and the stopping places on the way published as soon as possible. Already some of the young ladles are making preparations for the trip and as the date of leaving is only a few weeks away they are wise In doing so. It will be the policy of most of the members of the party to take as little luggage as they can get along with so

that they can travel about freely and without Interference. The trip will be a P.ooseveltan one for strenuosity and nc one will want to be handicapped by a lot of luggage. The Times is fortunate, indeed. In having the promise of Mrs. Bell as chaperone. The families of the winning contestants will not worry about their daughter or sister if the party is

entrusted to her care, and the ladles of the party may rest assured that she will make every day of the trip the very Jolliest possible. Accompanying the special, will be a representative of

the Lake County Times whose every effort will be to fill every want of the Times party, before that want la expressed. The presence of these two representatives of the Times will relieve from the minds of the ladies every possible worry and care and they can enjoy tho trip frsm the time they leave Hammond, till they have finished their trip. Remember, if you have a friend who wants to go with you on the trip, arrangements can be made by calling upon the circulation department.

CAMP HARRIS A Thing of The Past

The annual encampment of the M. W A. Foresters was brought to a close lest evening when the t'.fty or more tents were taken down and preparations wero made to leave the city today. Colonel Stratton in a statement to the press last evening said. "The encampment which we have held In Hammond during the past week has been a splendid success. I am more than satisfied with the courteous treatment we have all had at the hands of the citizens here, I am delighted with the grounds upon which we have been permitted to raise our tents, and I am pleased, with tho co-operation we were gi n by the business men of Hammc " one disappointing thing about the rth of July celebration was th fact j X we did not have near the atteiidai. swe expected. To show that we

these things. All of the boys who camped here had a good time and will return next year and bring others with them." It must be admitted that the people o. Hammond are somevhat disappointed with the number of Modern Woodmen who came to the city yesterday, but they were only disappointed because they had been led to believe that there would be at least 10,000 people In the city when the fact3 are that there were only in the neighborhood of a thousand strangers. Including the Woodmen previously in camp. Otherwise they were satisfied with the celebration. A great many Hammond people stayed in the city yesterday on account of the encampment when they would ordinarily have gone elsewhere. In fact the Hammond people made the celebration what it - was. There were hundreds of them out and they al1 seemed to enjoy themselves. The dance floor was crowded all evening and the booths at which ice cream, sandwiches and cigars were sold, were ali well patronized. Parade Attractive. The parade In the afternoon was one

iof the most attractive that has been i held here In years. Nearly every business man of importance was represent- ; t d by a float and there were several i hundred uniformed Woodmen in line. (The line of march was too long though I and before all of the tortuous route

tad been traversed the marchers had done about all the celebrating they were inclined to do that day. The weather could not have been better lf it had been ordered for the oc-

caslon. It was not too wana nor was j it too cool. The sun shown all day and i there was not even a hint of rain. In I fact yesterday was about the most i pleasant Fourth from a climatic stand

point that Hammond has enjoyed ia several years. From the standpoint of the Hammond business man the encampment haa been a success although not as great a success as was expected. The encampment was tilled ali over Cook county and the few hundred men who wera here will inform other hundred of the advantages of Hammond until j the effect will be far reaching.
