Happenings of a Day In Lake County's Lively Capital

SHUCKS Prom the Diary of St Lenc Them ez hez automobiles thet ain't uster ridin' ennybuddy but themselves could put 'em t" very appropriate- use on Decoration day by plckln' up th" old soldiers an' lendin' 'em fer legs in" th' parades. " ' An' what would you call Teddy but a "boss?" Crown Point citizens are getting a good sample of what streets are without oil sprinkling during the windy weather of the last week, and the clamor has gone up for relief from the dust storms which invade the households. Ex-Postmaster Farley is circulating a petition among the property owners getting signers to pay for the street oiling immediately and is meeting with great success and almost unanimous consent to the plan. Court street is already assured of an oil cover and the other. street residents are falling into line. As a saving and convenient venture th'e sprinkling and surfacing the streets with oil has never been questioned and it is not expected anyone, will refuse to share his or her share of the burden, considering the- nominal cost of the operation. The program for Crown Point's Memorial day has been arranged and has the customary observance of the day, with several additions in the recreation line. The regular Memorial exercises will be given, after which Central Music hall will be filled to listen to the exercises prepared for those intending to be present. Following is the program In full: ' You are ordered to assemble on Thursday, May 30, at 9:30 a. m. sharp, at room in courthouse.
