IS HAMMOND HOSPITABLE?

As Hammond has come to take its place athong tha cities of the stata the time has come for it to fulfill all the duties of 'a city. While other cities have worked hard to secure various big conventions and have been delighted to call into their midst th representative people from every other community of the state, Hammond has been content to say, "We are not situated to care for conventions." A very wrong and very undeserved Impression of our city and its citizens has gone abroad over the state. We are of Hammond, in Hammond and for Hammond, first, last and all the time. We believe In Hammond's people and have never seen them fail to respond to any worthy call. We have felt that some one ought to pave the way in bringing the people of our state to see our community, and for that reason we worked very hard to secure the state convention of Christian churches for Hammond, May 13-16, 1912. This means that about one thousand people representing every city and county in the state will be here. Thougrh some will go to the hotels, we presume that tvery one understands that far the big majority will expect us to do what other cities do. In order to care for these guests the homes of the city must be willing to open their doors of hospitality. It Is the custom in all state conventions to furnish room and breakfast to the delegates. We, ourselves, have had that hospitality extended to us In many cities. Not only every home of the Christian church, but hundreds of other homes should be offered if the guests are to be cared for. We make this appeal to all the people of all the churches and citizens. Will you not be willing to offer a room and breakfast for one or two of these visitors? Places to entertain a thousand will have to be found this week. Will you not put personal convenience aside In order that visitors . may share our homes and find Hammond as hospitable or more so than any other city? Will you not please call Mr. Sharp's home or call the church office, phone 658, and offer to be one to help in this matter? Do It now, as we have only a few days to list all the places. This appeal to the homes of Hammond we make as pastor of one of the churches, and as, a citizen wo assure the people of any other, organization that we stand ready to reciprocate when the time comes.
