FACTS VS. BUNK.

Don't let the democrats hand you any fairy tale about the debt that

Hanly left. The expenses of the state administration ARE $1,000 PER DAY

HEAVIER NOW THAN THEY WERE UNDER REPUBLICAN RULE. Fact

Ana we were to nave so much, retrenchment and so much economy. BUNK!

' . REACH OUT THE HELPING HAND.

Tonight at the Gary Commercial -club there will be a mass-meeting of

the friends of Mercy hospital.

The meeting la called to devise ways and means to raise J20.000, the Bum the Sisters of St Francis will need if Gary is to continue to have the

hospital.

in 1907 the good sisters came to the young city. They started a hospital. From that time until this day they have labored for the sick of Gary.

Three of the sisters have given up their lives while engaged in this work

During the time that the hospital ha3 been conducted in the temporary houses its support has come from patients tat paid. For many of them

were charity cases. ,

Conditions at the hospital have reached such a state that, if we may

use slang, the "sisters are now at the end of their string." The hospital

will have to be located in a permanent home. It can no longer continue

in its temporary location. and the proposed home will cost more than $100,

000. Of this amount the sisters can raise all but $20,000.

So, if Gary wants to 'keep the Mercy hospital it will now have' to do

what it should have doneMong ago.

A; LITTLE ADVICE TO WEST HAMMOND.

In view of the fact that the die is cast and that the citizens of West Hammond are now confronted with the necessity of changing the form of municipal government from that of a village to that of a city. It would be

well for them to take steps now to have that first city government as clean honest and as representative of the best citizens of the village as possible

It is conceded that the village form of government is adequate. The

city plan will be much bettet for the 7,000 people who reside across the

line, but in adopting the city form of government and inselecting the men

who are to conduct the city's business, the greatest care must be used to

prevent professional politicians, the habitual grafters and the representa

tives of the drives from getting into control.

If West Hammond purges Itself of its bad reputation by electing capable and honest business men to office it will witness an era of prosperity such

as It has never known before.

THERE ARE LOTS OF "HIM."

Ashton's only real fossilized moss-back citizen who has an office not far

from the Enterprise and occasionally dabbles in real estate, came in the last of the week and ordered his paper stopped because we did not give him enough free advertising and mention his name every time he sold a horse

or a $100 city lot. Said "business man" has spent with us $21.45 in the five

years we have been here and thinks he should have about $1 worth of free advertising each week as an inducement to take the paper regularly. We could not see it his way and bo had to cut his name off the list. Some kind friend, please loan him your Enterprise this week so that he may see how

badly we feel. He also threatened to establish another newspaper in Ashton

"If it costs me $100, by heavens." Ashton Enterprise.

DAILY FASHION HINT.

NOW'S THE TIME TO SUBSCRIBE. The local newspaper should be found in every home. No child will grow up ignorant who can be. taught to appreciate the home paper. It is the stepping-stone to Intelligence in all those matters not to be learned in books. Give your children a foreign paper which contains not one word about any person, place or thing which they ever saw or perhaps eve heard of, and how can you expect them to be interested? But let them have the home paper and read of persons whom they meet, and places with which they are familiar, and soon an interest is awakened which increases with every daily arrival of the local paper. Thus a habit of reading is formed, and those children will read the papers all their lives and become intelligent men and women, a credit to their ancestors, strong in their knowledge of the world as it is today.

THE! HISTORY OP THE PHOTOPLAY,

Hammond, Ind., Aug. 3. Editor Times:

Even the exhibitor who makes his living by showing motion pictures to the public has usually a very vague conception of the way In which the pic

tures are made. Of course he knows in a general way that the actors must

be trained in their work, that money

must bo spent for costumes, scenery and properties, and that each scene must be rehearsed a number of times

before It Is taken by the camera.

Therefore it Is little wonder that so few outside the business know any

thing about the course of a motion pic

ture from the brain of the scenario writer to its distribution in tin boxes to the theaters of the whole world. To most people It is merely an evening's pleasant entertainment, without a thought of the labor, both mental and physical, the time, or the expense of the wonderful result they see thrown on the, screen. And yet the moving picture business Is comparatively new and there are no limits to Its future posibilitles or opportunities for scenario writers who will keep their eyes open and their brains working. Hundreds of scenarios are received by the editors and producers every week most of which are unavailable for some reason or other. Just as Is the case with literary contributions to popular magazines and those that cannot be used

are returned to their writers. The

few available ones are then-sent to the

main office to be filed away until the

time comes for production, the author being paid at once. From ten to one

hundred dollars, in rare instances, are paid for scenarios, the price varying

with the merits of the story.

The scenario accepted, the producer

must pick out his locations, costumes, scenery and castes. Both he and the actors must get into the spirit of the

story. Then, after many rehearsals, the scenes are filmed, fitted together, rigidly scrutinized for flaws by the officials and sent on Its way. This is in brief the history of the photoplay or motion picture. And perhaps some of my aspiring friends may also attain success in this new literary field if they will only keep their eyes open, watch the rehearsals and profit by what they see. It takes time, application, unending labor and perhaps many disappointments to succeed In this business, but the game Is worth the effort.

TO A HUSBAND. Mr. Man, when you go home at night you like nothing better than to get Inside your smoking jacket and slippers and rest. And when your wife wants you to go with her somewhere you are quite put out. But A6k yourself. What has the wife been doing the long day. and whom has she seen? The grocer boy. or the Iceman, or possibly the woman next door, with whom she has exchanged a few words. She has scarcely been out of the house, while you have seen many people and things. She is made of the same sort of stuff human stuff as you. In a little town in Iowa a fine mid

dle aged woman, devoted to her family, went out one morning and set fire to the barn. She died a month later

In an asylum.

Too much to occupy her bands and too little to occupy her mind." said the

doctor. Do you see?

iter busband was a good man as

men go. But the wife, whose work was never done and whose personality

held the family together, was sacrificing every fiber of her being; as wife and mother, and the husband did not see. Her only diversion -was church on

Sundays when she could go-

Tou say the case Is an extreme one? It Is, perhaps, but it may serve to give

you a woman's point of view.

Many a poor wife, driven by never ending tasks, lacking recreation, has developed unrest, brooded and some

times died or done a foolish thing. Do you wonder? And If. added to her sense of grinding monotony, there Is the sense of neglect or disesteem, what may you not expect? Some day a thing the husband never dreamed of happens. And he cries out, "I did not understand!" If you. a man. cannot sanely live without change of scene or break of monotony, neither can the woman at your side. If the faithful wife cannot leave her duties in the daytime, but can do so when the supper dishes are done, go with her whither she wills to go. Just as you would have gone with ber In the old sweet days of courtship. Else you may some time deserve the bitter apostrophe of the dying wife: Carve not a stone when I am dead. The praises which remorseful mourners give To women's graves, a tardy recompense. But apeak them while I live. Forget me when I die. The vtoleta Abova my rest will blossom Just as blue Nor miss thy tears. E'en nature's molt forgets. But while I live be true.

being used at a fire. Dr. Redmon drove his automobile over two lines of hose at the Thomas elevator fire. Before Mayor Barnaby It was rounj the ordinance did not prohibit automobiles from driving over fire hose, the measure being passed before automo

biles came into use. Redmon was released. The fire department will ask that the ordinance bo amended to include automobiles.

FOlR BREAK FROM JAIL. Four prisoners escaped from the county jail at Brownston Friday morning. They were Harry McQueen, of Mitchell, charged with robbing a store at Seymour; John Craig and George Harris, colored, charged with robbing a box car at Seymour, and Tip Franklin, a robser. Bloodhounds were ordered from Indianapolis, and no one w!j allowed around the jail. The men gained their liberty by breaking an iron bed. using the pieces to pry off the iron bars, some of which are all an inch thick. Four other prisoners refused to leave with them. WHIT KIND OK A CAT WAS IT. -It was an insignificant looking fur bearing animal resembling a cat that dispuated the right-of-way near Elwood with a happy auto party of two young men and two girls, and the animal paid no attention to the warning horn. The auto did not stop not jusi then but after -the little animal was crushed in the roadway the autoists were sorry. One of the girls Jumped from the car. Finally the two couples abandoned It. At a farmhouse where they sought aid the door was closed in their face. Later a roore sympathetic man lent the boys an old buggy, and In :t they hauled the two girls nine miles to Elwood. Every time tiiey met a buggy on the road the former autoists hid their faces. There was something else they could not hide until they reached Elwood, where formaldehyde In large quantities was pushed enrougn a cellar window for their benefit. FIVE SISTERS DIE IX 8 MONTHS. Five sisters, members of the Miller family at Shelby ville, which formerly lived in Shelby county, have died since
