The Gary board of public works today took up the question of installing street signs upon the various corners in the settled districts of Gary. In all th-e will be 652 sign posts erected.

. It Is believed that H. A. Campbell will get the contract. Two years ago the city undertook to place signs in the First sub-division and the contractor who was a genius of the first water put all of the west side signs on the east side and the east side oneeon the west side, but all In regular order. However, one good effect came from this blunder. Several --drinking men who started to walk to their homes in the "West side believed that they were going east and great mix-ups resulted. This is said to have caused many to get on the water wagon. The board also took up routine business this morning and before the day Is over it may handle some big south side Improvement projects.

T. Wr. Englehart and all the bigger Gary boosters are rejoicing in a recent

prediction made by Col. George. A. Zinn, federal engineer, stationed in

Chicago, in connection with the possibilities of Gary and the entnlre Cal'jmet region. Mr. Englehart was In Hammond this morning on his way to

Indlftaoolis.

The prediction appeared in a Chicago dispatch to a Pittsburg, paper, a copy of which was sent to Mr. Englehart by his friend William Bradburn. The dis

patch reads as follows:

"Chicago. March 6. While Secretary

of War Henry Stlmson, and party wer; making a study today by automobile and boat of harbor and drainage proo-

lems In Chicago, Col. George .A. Zinn,

federal engineer, predicted that in 25

years, a city of 15,000,000 people

would be centered around Gary, Ind

and that, the . present loop district of

Chicago would be deserted except as a

residential, quarter. He gave wate

facilities as the basis for his prophecy

"Of course this great city still will

be Chicago" said Col. .Zinn, "bu the

center of population will move south

wafd taking In Gary, , South Chicago,

and all the lak-j towns. In twenty years Chicago will be the largest city

in the world, and the greatest shipping

point of the central west, drawing th

trade from the four points of the com

pass. - Then the great lakes trade with a big harbor at Chlca'go will increase

many fold. All of the scattered laka towns will be merged in a greater Chicago making it the wonder of the Unlevrse." A letter from "Bill" Bradburn, which accompanied the, clipping, shows that the east is alive to these facts. y "Bill"' Bradburn will be well remembered by the old timers around here as a big cattle buyer in the Chicago stockyards, and in his day he was also considered a ' good ' prizefighter. Since going, to Pittsburgh, he has settled down to business and is a substantial business man there. "This old town

has pretty near shot its bolt," he says
