The Boy Scout movement, of international fame, which has captivated the hearts and interests of the youth of America and England, was given a touch of local color last evening when two patrols of ten members each were organized by the lads of Crown Point. Twenty of the town's best young men, ranging between the age of 16 and 18 years, agreed to follow out the teach ing and rules governing the Boy Scout movement, as laid down by the great British general and boy admirer. Gen Baden-Powell, originator and organizer of the Boy Scout movement in England and America. Vincent Toukey was the prime mover of the movement here and was appointed scoutmaster of the organization last evening. It is ex pected that at least four patrols will be organized at the next meeting or as soon as the organization of the young men Is perfected. The Boy Scout idea is not allied with the Boy City movement, which has met with failure in many towns and cities, the idea of the originators being to give the youth all the advantages of an outdoor life, coupled with a" military training and discipline. His moral welfare is also carefully provided for in the rules and regulations of the Scout idea, it being the intention of the originator of the movement to remove the temptations laid in the paths of the youth at this critical age by filling their minds with the love of nature, the patriotism of country and the example of the benefits derived from a well spent life. The Boy Scout idea is an excellent one and should be lent the assistance of every Crown Point citizen interested in the youth of the city. 'Welcome to the Boy Scout idea in Crown Point. The first dance of the season given by the Independent Order of Foresters at Lassen's pavilion. Cedar Lake, was attended by a big crowd from here last evening and proved a big success socially as well as financially. The order will repeat the dances at the popuv lar resort during the summer and are assured of a good attendance. Over seventy-five couples are reported te have attended the affair last evening. In spite of the cool weather the social given by the German Evangelical church ladies yesterday afternoon and evening was a big success, and drew a good attendance 'of the church members and friends.

Is Your House Flyless?

Almost everybody knews how disagreeable files are in a dining room. They ere hard to keep out even with the best of care in ecreening the house. . , With an electric fan, however, you may rid yourself of the fly nuisance. They cannot contend against the air currents. Thus you will not be compelled to divide your meal with them, because they leave. And while an electric fan is driving away the file it is at the same time making the dining room delightfully cool. We have electric fans to suit any dining room. Prices, from $9.00 up. Northern Indiana Gas & Electric Co. Hammond, ' WhWag, East Chicago, Indiana Harbor

FOULARD FROCK FOR SIGHTSEEING IS A WELCOME CHANCE FROM COAT-SUIT SKIRT

U a sufficiently dark color, will not show soil traces and If of autucientlr quiet style 111 cot be too dressy for general alghtseespreading by depriving them of their food plants. "The clover leaf weevil la about onethird of an inch in length, color brown, with numerous identations on th9 wtng covers and with, grayish stripes on each side. It has a long, stout snout, which Is characteritic or tne vveevil family. 'The female lays her eggs early In the fall on the clover steams near the base of the plant, where they natcn and the light green larvae feed upou che leaves, becoming only partly grown before winter sets in, when they go under rubbish or into the ground and pass the winter In a dormant state, coming out In the spring and continuing to feed until the last of May or first of June. As they feed mostly at night, they are seldom noticed. Before changing to the pupa, the larva constructs a very delicate, light green, oval cocoon in which it remains about a month, when the adult beetle appears and begins feeding on the leaves of the rlover, often doing more damage than the larva. "It is only occasionally that this species becomes very troublesome, because, as soon as the beetles become very numerous, a fungous disease attacks and destroys the lavae in great numers. When-this occurs tht"larvae, may be seen curled around a blade of grass and covered with a white mold which soon destroys it. The spores spread from these diseased larvat to healthy ones and soon the whole field is infected, thus rendering any artificial remedies unnecessary. IN POLITICS Senator Joseph W.
