A PROJECT COMMENDABLE.
The modern spirit of commercialism possesses the people of the Calumet region to an extent that they are inclned to be too deeply engrossed In the
business of money making to give very much attention to masters of his
torical interest. It is therefore commendable when a number of Hammond
business men interest themselves in the matter of securing for the city of
Tlammond such a caluable collection of archaeological and anthropological
specimens as are included in the famous Cheshire relics. The collection Is
one of the finest of its kind to be found anywhere and is one of the few
things that links the present with that period, not so many years ago, before
the advent of the white man when Lake county was inhabited by the IndiansIt is one of the remarkable facts of history that In the period, of a little more than four hundred years since the discovery of America that the race
of aborigines, which then possessed this country, could have been so nearly
wiped out that It is only occasionally that any trace of them is found in
the country in which they once held undisputed possession. But what evi
dences there were twenty to twenty-five years ago of the presence of the
preceding race have been collected and saved for the curious gaze of sue
ceeding generations. So Important is the Cheshire collection that State
Geologist W. S. Blatchley took occasion to describe it in his article on archae
ology In his resport on the geology and natural resources of Indiana- He
describes many articles that were made by the Indians and which, are found
in no other collection. Among these are arrow-heads, axes, celts, hatchets
spearheads, mortars, hammers and pipes.
This collection was made by W.VW. Cheshire, a former Lake county man
tio is now in Washington, D. C, and later came into the possession of Julian
Youche, jr., of Crown Point.
A number of well known business men of Hammond made an effort to
induce the library board of Hammond to purchase the collection, but dis
covered that the funds of the board could not be used for this purpose. They then decided to raise by subscription the necessary money for the purchase of this rare collection. It has been assured that the subscription will be raised. The collection has already been brought to Hammond, and through the public eplritedness of a few men the people of the entire city will Boon have the opportunity to study as unique a collection of old Indian relics as
can be found anywhere.

' Well, ao. Miss Cftrrieroh, to tell the
truth I'm rather the opposite," he said.
'I'm whistling because I want to be
cheerful. You can't always be happy.
I ay, but you can always be cheerful."
"Seems to me there's a world of
philosophy In that last sentence.
"You can t always be happy, but you
can always be cheerful."
You can't always say What shall

hut perhaps you have only thought of
them as being connected with the
mountain tops of life.
It seems tn me that there Is a finer
application in .Connection with the valley of every day living.
The man who Is captain of his soul
ifl the truest .'ifefise, will be able to say of the petty disappointments anil trials of life: "These circumstances can hln
def me But fhey cannot alter my serenity. They? may kepp me from being
happy but they cannot keep me from
being cheerful."
To be euro this Ideal of cheerfulness Is not an esy thing to live up to, but Its reward are In direct proportion to its difficulties. For Its llrst reward is that the man who eah air, "One can always be cheerful," mayjknow that he Is most truly "captain of hia soul." Its Second is that he will not lack for friends. Stevenson has said, "A happy man or woman Is better thing to find than & five-pound note," and I don't see why it shouldn't be true of the cheerful man as well. And the third reward will probably be that the outward cheerfulness he forces himself to maintain will gradually create an Inward habit of happiness. Tou can't always be happy, but you can always be cheerful, and If you are cheerful you Will probably be happy. It sounds paradoxical, but it's true.

SUGGESTED TO THE GARY COMMERCIAL CLUB. The Gary Commercial club is taking a step in the right direction n looking into the fifty-year street car franchise which awaits city council ratification. In connection with this step for the city's interest we might suggest that President Norton appoint a committee to take up the question of city parks. - Unless restrained Alderman Castleman's insane proposition for a park at Miller, for which he proses to pay $323,000 for the land alone, is liable to precipitate the city on the verge of bankruptcy. In his capacity as president of the park board Castleman is more than ever inflicting fool schemes upon the city and if he is successful in the park deal, taxpayers will soon realize that although this man's schemes are crazy they are none the less costly. A The Commercial club has already done the city a good service in connection with the electrical factional troubles, it now proposes to aid the people in the traction question. It would certainly do the city a great benefit if it took up the park proposition. The question that now confronts Gary is whether ft wants one central or a number of small parks, playgrounds, etc. But of one thing It is sure It wants no 262 sand dunes to be bought at $1,250 an acre. The day for crazy dreamers has gone by. es THE DAYS OF REAL SPORT.
V'ln the Days of Real Sport," the Series of cartoons which Briggs is run
ning in the Chicago Tribune, probably is the most notable achievement since McCutcheon's famous Bird Center series a few years ago. Of these, the
one which appeared Sunday showing the "gang" of boys In the neighborhood getting ready to go fishing, Is full of real human Interest. It recalls those happy days when a trip to the bank of some quiet stream was an
event in a boy's life.
The cartoon shows a group of boys in the barn yard digging for worms. That was always preliminary to a trip of this kind. And Brigg3 puts into the mouths of his actors such characteristic phrases a3 "Here's a fat one,"
LooKet tms one. He pictures the broken-hearted boy whose mother said he could not go, the heart-breaking restraint of the boy who, propped up
in a high chair, is having his hair cut and can't go until the job is done.
The cartoon portrays perfectly the tenseness of just a situation at a
time when a trip to the river meant more than a trip to Europe does now,
And after the day's fishing is over and the tired but happy boys come home
trailing their bamboo after them in the dusty road, so hungry that a good
dinner seems to be the only thing to be desired and finally when the tired bare feet are bathed and the boy slides between the clean white sheets of his own little bed, he goes to sleep and dreams of the day when he shall be a man and look back on the "Days of Real Sport." '
