uses so much lens water than the other cities is that it has service meters
and the first step towards insuring: an adequate supply of water In the cities of Hammond, East Chicago and Indiana Harbor will he the Installation of service 'meters which ' will make the customer pay for the water he draws from the mains." But an investigation of this problem reveals the fact that while the other cities 6f the county are making an effort to solve the problem, the city of Hammond has done nothing but extend its intake a little farther. A number , of manufacturers in
Hammond, who for various reasons do not care to be quoted, state that the lack of a reliable supply of water from
the city mains has put them to a great
inconvenience.
The master mechanic of the Standard
Steel Car company stated today that
the danger of a failure of the water supply necessitated the digging of wells and the building of reservoirs for
the purpose of storing water.
A plumber stated today that the people of Hammond did not realize that there is great danger of an explosion of hot water tanks in the city when the water gets below a certain pressure. "Some day," said he, "there are going to be a number of explosions of hot water tanks and there may be loss of life resulting. This is easily a possi-

"In my opinion if only part of the property be sold, as Mr. Bel man suggested, the north fifty feet should sell for $700 a front foot and the south fifty for $400 a front foot, each piece having a depth of 140 feet. In that event, however, it should be stipulated that the building to be erected on the rear seventy-five feet should be built no less than five feet away from the school building, in order not to interfere with that building's light.

WATER MEN
DISCUSS THE SITUATION (Continued from Page One.) ent intake instead of solving the problem for all time by building a six-foot water tunnel similar to that at Gary. Kirk Solves rrofolem. Manager C. L. Kirk of the East Chicago and Indiana Water company stated that a partial, solution, of the "needle" ice problem had been made by the building of an emergency crib, and that when the ice threatened the reserve in the standpipe was drawn upon so that there was no time when the city was entirely without water and fire protection. But Hammond has not even taken the steps that have been taken by East Chicago for the protection of the city. Hammond has no emergency crib and no standpipe with an emergency supply of water. That is why the busi
ness' men are criticising the c'ty ad- j
ministration. - C. L. Kirk expressed the opinion that the people of the cities of East Chicago, Indiana Harbor and Hammond are partly responsible for the failure of
the water supply. Favors Service Meters. "It is not the water the people use, but the water they waste that causes the trouble," said he. "In Oary they pump only a little over a million gallons of water a day In East Chicago about three millions and in Hammond about four millions, Much of this
water is wasted. The reason Gary i

The Piano That You HaVe 'Been Waiting For!
AT LAST, AFTER NEARLY THREE YEARS EFFORT, WE ARE ABLE TO OFFER TO THE PUBLIC OUR OWN NEW. MODERN LELAND PIANO
This instrument possesses real musical value. It is the product of a company we control and is constructed throughout of standard materials. Its soundboard, action, keys, etc., are all of service-giving qual
ity and in every way superior to the grade usually found in inexpensive pianos.
REAL MUSICAL WORTH
FACTORY PROFITS ELIMINATED
The New Leland Piano presents a value positively never before offered in the history of our house. The factory profit, while we are introducing the new Leland, has been entirely eliminated. You pay
only for the cost of materials and the making plus a small retail profit. We know you cannot match it for less than $75 to $100 more than our price.
BEAUTIFUL STYLES The illustration above is an accurate sketch of the style we offer at $195. The styles we introduce at $215 and $225 are equally beautiful.
LOW PRICE AND GOOD QUALITY
This is always an unusual combination. In pianos it is so scarce as to be almost unbelievable. We have new pianos at $145, $155, $165 and $175. Come in and see them they were the best thing of the kind
until the advent of our new Leland Piano. Just compare them, or any cheap pianos, with Lyon & Healy's own Leland Piano. After comparison, you will see what we mean when we say that every new Leland Piano on our floors ought to be snapped up (we reserve till Christmas) almost immediately.
Terms: One Dollar a Week
The Leland is an instrument you may be proud of.
