The prospect that the people of. the
north side in Hammond will get to
gether on a deep sewer system means
the beginning of a new era in the de
velopment of the north side.
ine construction oi a deep sewer now will involve a great deal of
money, but It will prevent costly re
building of sewers in the ' future. It
will do more to make the north side
attractive than anything that could be
done for that section of the city.
The people of the north side are to be congratulated on the fact that they have the public spirit to go ahead with
such a project. It means much for
the whole city of Hammond.
And there are other matters of importance that must be decided by the
people of that section of the city. The
