LAKE WOODS PARK TO

HAV

MANY

HOVHTS

Senator Frank Gavit of Whiting is a progressive. At least he insurrected at a Lake W'oods Park directors' meeting Tuesday afternoon. Result of the conference were officially given toda and Include the , following advantages for improvements of the park: 1. Five-cent fare from Hammond to Iake Woods. 2 Canopy covered walk from car line to park. 3. Varl-colored lights numbering 1,200 under canopy. 4. Expenditure of $1,500 for improvements. 5. Free concerts, shows, moving pictures in aerodome. 6. Extra cars from State and Hoh-

man streets to Lake Woods. An extended canopy covering the entire double width sidewalk from the Gary & Interurban line to the entrance of Iake Woods is to be erected t once. When completed it will be the largest similar canvas in use west of Niagara Falls. Only th most fashionable resorts of the east such as Atlantic City, New York. Bar Harbor and Saratoga have canopies of that length The cost of canvas and construction, wiring arid lighting will be $1,500. The concession of a five-cent car faro

to the pa$k was obtained by Senator Oavit upon the earnest solicitation of Manager Bernstein. In spite of a ten cent fare exacted by the interurban company IjakeWoods Park has succeeded and because of ft nicKla fare tt will certainly forge ahead of past records. "Transportation." said Manager Bernstein to press representatives, "ha

been our greatest problem. Although

success has come in abundance it has been done in spite of railway facilities Now that perfect service is assured everything takes on a roster hue and

we expect increased prosperity. Our attractions are the best and the park

a garden spot.

"Storm and rain 'will no longer be a

preventative for our patrons. At an enormous expense and with the com

fort of amusement 6eekers as the first consideration the management made arrangements for this feature which places the park in a class of its own. With an abundance of lights beneath the tenting the path to Lake Woods wll take on tha appearance of oriental

splendor. Within canvass will cover

the walks leading to the most patroniz

ed concessions. In fact the progressive directors have prepared for the rainy

day."

It Is believed that St. Clair will make

good and that the theater will have

the patronage that it so richly deserves.

St. Clair is of the opinion that the opening of a first class vaudeville house In Hammond will not hurt the

business here but will tend to make

Hammond a good show town.

One of the largest and most pelasing

musical comedy attractions of the sea son will be seen at the Orpheum Sat

urday night. Aug. 5, when the famous comedians "The Lyman Twin Brothers"

appear with their excellent company in the season's big success "The Specu

lators." This wonderful twin star com

edy contains an abundance of bg features, pleasing novelties, charming specialties, with a dainty chorus of pretty girls, funny comedians and beautiful display of electrical effects, never before seen with this class of attraction. This new success was written expressly for these young stars like all others In which they have appeared, with a wonderful success but from the way "The Speculators" Is meeting with approval from both press and public, they have outdone all previous attempts in this production, carrying a large company and all necessary scenic equipment complete. Those witnessing the performance of these clever young comedians and their remarkable company will be given a treat seldom offered to the theater going public

Sibley street, author of the moTing picture drama, "L'ncle Jim," which was shown at the Princess theater last year, has been successful in marketing another production, her latest success being entitled "Saved by a Burglar."

In due course of time it will be shown in one of the local moving picture theaters which have the independent service. The photoplay will be produced by the Reliance Film Co. The scenario in brief is as follows: Bill Doyle, an honest young workhian, is unjustly discharged from his

position because of a quarrel with the

foreman, and, unable to find employment and his little family reduced to desperate circumstances, he resolves, as a last resort, to turn burglar to ob

tain the necessary means with which

to buy food and clothing for his wife

and Child. He enters the home of the superintendent of the factory in which he was formerly employed during the latter's absence on a business trip and becomes the means of saving his little daughter's life, thus earning the gratitude of both the parents. In the end all difficulties are adjusted and the picture ends happily for every one.
