The contract for the new home for the East Chicago Masonic lodge was let last night and August Johnson was the successful bidder. The structure, which is to cost approximately $27.000, will be erected on the two lots on the south side of Chicago avenue, about midway between Magoun and Baring avenues, purchased by the lodge something over a year ago from the East Chicago company. Work on the building will be begun at once and It Is to be finished by Dec. 1. It will have a frontage of 50 feet and a depth, of 110 and will be built ot pressed brick with terra cotta facings. The interior will be finished throughout with oak and everything will be of the most modern design. The first floor will be arranged for two store rooms, although they will be left in one big room for the present, and will be rented for dances and large gatherings next winter. Since the Lewis rink was converted into a garage East Chicago has been without a hall of sufficient dimensions to accommodate a large gathering, and the Masons believe it will be a profitable scheme to leave the lower floor in one large room to be used for such purposes, until such time as the demand for more store rooms necessitates its use for the purpose originally planned. The second floor will be devoted to lodge, reception and anteI rooms, while the banquet hall will be on the third floor and will be thirty feet deep and fifty feet wide. The building when completed will be the finest Masonic hall in northern Indiana and will be a credit to the energy and progresslveness of the Bast Chicago lodge as well as to the city. The fact that August Johnson Is" to build it is sufficient guarantee that it will be honestly built and nothing but the best of material used in its construction. MAYOR BACK . WITH NEW IDEAS 1 IContlnued trom Page J.J from the superintendent of public construction there, and which is surely very practical related to the Increased ornamental effects for special occasions, which can be produced through the post. Flatr Soeketn for Posts. This, it was pointed out, could be made possible by means of little sockets in the lamp posts in which flags, pennants and tree branches can be securely anchored. Seattle received this suggestion too late, but the superintendent gave it to Mayor Smalley for Hammond's benefit. This little' sockets, which do not detract from the appearance of the post, can be added to at the time of the manufacture without any additional cost. Hammond's Market Delayed. Referring to Hammond's proposed public market, Mayor Smalley said that It should be open within three weeks at the most. The vacant property in the rear of the city hall is to be used for this purpose, but at present it is used as a storage yard, 'and not until the new storage yard west of the Simplex is turned over to the city will the city have the right to occupy it. The appropriation ordinance for the first payment on the yard was held up at the last council meeting, because of failure of all the councilmen to vote for it, and the next regular meeting will not be held until the first Tuesday in August. East Sidera Busy. The East Side Improvement assoclatlon has been agitating a public market

West Hammond has made up its mind to be so good that it has been decided that old policemen will do Just as well as young ones. Joe Yafler, 63 years old, hailing from the first ward, has been appointed to take the place of Frank Neublssa. The appointment is said to have been inspired by one of the aldermen from the first ward, to have the approval of the mayor, and to be a matter of concern to Chief of Police John Kulczyk. About a month ago Neublssa was discharged from the force for inattention to duty. Now Yager, 63 years of age, practically a pensioner, has been appointed to the place. Kulczyk refused to be interviewed on the subject. WHY ARE TOU NOT A TIMES READER?

County Commissioners Will Be Asked to Pave Highway From Gostlin Street to Sheffield Avenue Intersection This Year. Further steps to make Calumet ave nue the principal north and south thor oughfare of Hammond were taken to day, when a petition was put In circu lation asking the county commissioners to pave the highway trom Gostlin ,tt north to where Calumet avenue question in the mind or the petition er that the county commissioners will take heed of It without delay. The Schlesinger steel plant is to have one of its main gates on Calumet avenue, and as it will be north of Gostlin street the pavement will be needed there by the time building work on the plant begins. The pavement of Calumet avenue from Gostlin street to Sheffield avenue will be a big factor in bringing the real advantages to Calumet avenue and contiguous territory. It was with this improvement in view that most of the Calumet avenue property owners south of Gostlin street were eager to shorten their lots in order that the street might be widened. Calumet avenue is paved now from the south city limits to Gostlin street, and with the north end paved it will be the longest improved street In Hammond. GOLF HANDICAP.
