His presence add- subject from the etart, that of educaaed largely to make it the most success- tion, and finished with it only after he ful function of the association, bu due had driven home a valuable lesson.

credit must also be given to the work of the Individual members, who labored THOMAS JP. ceaselessly for the success of the affair. Covers were laid for 200, and a representative gathering of the city responded to the invitations. Governor Marshall was accompanied by Mrs. Marshall, who is his constant companion on his trips of this nature. He was the last to speak, but Ills address had been looked forward to as the main event of the evening, and it was well worth to await the midnight hour to hear him. Having spoken in Hammond only once, this during the campaign when he was tired and throat sore, Hammond had to rely upon his reputation as a speaker, but he came up to the expectations. He was probably a little disappointing to WILL D The people of Lake county will turn out to the automobile races at Crown Point en masse. Xever in the history of the county has thero been such general interest in a Lake county affair. The people are not only interested in the races, but they realize that on the 18th and 19th of June the eyes of the world will be focused on this locality, and the advertisement it will get will be worth thousands of dollars to the residents of the countv. Consequently, they expect to do their, part and thousands ot theni will contribute to the success of the affair, at least, by their presence. Many of the progressive men or me county are making private arrangements to handie the crowds and add to their IortOne of the most notable of the independent projects is that which is be - ing carried out under the auspices of the University club of Hammond.

GLENNON DENIES Declares That Majestic Is Not to Be Sold. Manager John Glenron of the Hotel Majestic. Is much fnoonsod nt the reports which appeared In a local paper that he was about to sell his place of business. "I wish you would say that there is nothing to the story," requested Mr. Olennon this morning. "The story hurts my business and coulrl easily have been verified had any inclination been shown to find out the truth. I was not even given the courtesy of an interview. "Is is true that some attempts were made to secure an option, but that is as far as the matter went ar.d that was all the foundation there was for the storv " Shriners Home Again. It was a weary lot of Shriners who returned to Hammond yesterday and today after attending the meeting of the general council at Ixiuisvllle during the past few days. The disappointment is not securing the charter Is not as great as might he imagined, for the reason that it would have been unprecedented for the

Gov. Marnhall's Ide uf Education. Governor Marshall said that the edu1 catcd and trained men had nine chances out of ten against the untrained man, but that education did not depend upon the completion of college and university courses, but rathtr upon the ability to answer correctly the three question: "What shal I do? When shall I do it? Why shall I do it." ; Mr. Marshall spoke until nearly 12 : o'clock, and then went to the Majestic hotel, where he and Mrs. Marshall re-

j ceived Hammond people until their train left on the Monon. W. C. Relmon acted as toastmaster. The address of welcome was made by j Carl Griffin, president of the alumni, and he was followed by William Whitaker, president of the graduating class. Only Bill Whitaker could have made a response like he did when everybody else was solemn. As president of the class he thanked the president of the association for the welcome admission and assured him that they would pay their dues. The two sentences were delivered in such characteristic manner that they took the house with a storm of applause. MImh BaMNrtt Kuloelied. Miss Annie Bassett was one of the I speakers of the evening, and it was. in deed, a splendid tribute that Hammond people paid her when her former students rose to their feet in token of respect for her untiring work in the Hammond school. She only Ingratiated herself more with her kind and witty j toast, "Our Graduates," in which none j of the class of '09 were forgotten. Miss r ranees Hamacher lollowed with a response, "If you would," and was splen did. "The High School of Yesterday and the High School of Today," toasts by A. Murray Turner and Dr. W. F. Howatt were appropriate, the first in the light er and the second in the serious vein. The guests sat down to the table at 9 o'clock, and the courses were served by the ladies of the Presbyterian church. They were complimented on many sides for their spread. Elect New Offlccm. At the close of the evening's program the following officers for the ensuing year for the Alumni association were chosen : President Miss Mary Ibach. Vice president Henry Lovridge.

Most of the famous drivers, who cx jecu uj run cars in the race, are now on the course, and are trying out their i imperial council to have granted the cniiner on so snort notice. There, is no question, however, that Hammond and the other cities which have received special dispensations from the oflicia-is of the Shrine will receive their charters at the next meeting of the imperial council. In the meantime they will work under their special dispensations, and the work of organizing the Shrine can go forward without hindrance Death of Mrs. FossMrs. Tillie Foss. wife of Henry Foss. who conducts a saloon at 3 West Plummer avenue, died at her home Thursday at 12:45 p. m.
