Gary-Miller Park Confer

End; Old Political Enemies Meet and Warm Session Is Promised For Short Time.

Those In attendance at the GaryMiller park conference held In the Miller town .hall last night following th regular session of the town trus tees feared that , a sensational quarrel which arose between William C. Crolius on one hand and Mayor Knotts Battleaxe Castleman and City Attorney Curtis on the other hand, would end up In a near riot. The meeting started out with Knotts and Crolius shaking hands and it ended up in a row with the Miller vtglantes keeping a most watchful guard throughout the proceedings. Crolius Beats Knotts Mr a. Crolius came down to present the plans of an amusement park syndicate

president of the Gary park board, who sometime ago declared that if Gary

gets -the park on the lake front "concessions" will be let (to the faithful) to "maintain" it opened up the debate by saying that the park- board wanted 101 acres on the lake front. He asked Miller's permission to come in and condemn the property. Crolius then took 'the floor and outlined the project of the Berry Steuinshlp company which will run excursion boats down from Chicago to Miller beach. He stated that 29 concessions had already been let and that a steamer loaded with piling for the new wharf would be set out from an upper lake, port In a few days. He further stated that the Interests he represented -had under' lease' 1 3-4 miles of lake front age and that 1 mile was owned outright.

View from Jtpeei

It Is now pmctlcally decided that Gary will get no - lake front park at Miller. While many Miller people would like to see a public park In the town there is too much suspicion of the Gary city hall crowd. The political history of Gary is too well known in Miller and for that reason there Is no

disposition to place the lake front In the bands of the present administration, v

Probably the chief enmity of the !

Miller people - against the Knotts- j

Castleman crowd is due to the highhanded measures of the latter two

years ago. At that time the Gary city

hall gang boastfully announced that it j ' z ' -

would take possession of. the Miller shifted theresponsibility by decreeing church was as desirous of assisting lake front park by condemning the that "the present body has not Juris- the dove to settle on the session as

His ad-

deadlocked in a 37 to 37 vote, with was that it' is allied to political three hundred delegates in the audi- parties. The "pro's" contended that torlum the actions had their initial this in no way affected the church and final clash. Heated debates failed even though the objection be admitto relieve the situation.

congregations were present during his

lecture. The lack of flowery sent

ences and eloquent outbursts added to

his effectiveness. Pearce dellvrri

facts and fancies in fhe most direct

manner posible. His language was of

the simplest and the least involved.

In connection with the subject of 'Insane Evengellsm'', Pearce spoke on

the trend of the modern bible school.

'It would be positively funny if it

were not serious," he declared. "We

have thousands and thousands nf

bible classes in this nation without a Mble in them.

"Can you blame busy men for not going to a bible school to hear the

worldly affairs to win men to God?

And yet we have preachers who

arise on Sunday morning and recite some poetry to begin with and a little

more to close with and nothing in b tween.

Housewives never worry about the appetites of farmhands. Tired and hungry the men come in from the

fields. They need food for they have a man's work to do. They want no

knick-knacks."

Cecil Sharp made public his thanks last night for the part the Hammond

prfpers have had in making the con vert tion a success.

Rendition of the "Iost Chord" by the Clark Learning choir of the Christian church assisted by a string band led by Dr. Davis was applauded lat evening. Mrs. Earl Robertson was at

the piano. Robert ?. Simpson spoke with brevity. His was a brotherhood address. He is president of the Brother hood of Indiana. It was in the nature of salutation.
