Merchant-Tailored Clothes are better and more economical than ready-mades.

BECAUSE the merchant tailor's ex

penses are little or nothing compared to the enormous "expenses on ready-mades.

BECAUSE on ready-mades the man

ufacturer's profit is usually 33 per cent, then 5(r to 60 per cent is added to that

for the retailer.

EVERYTHING IS BETTER IN MERCHANT TAILORED CLOTHING

because quality of cloth, linings, trim

mings used by the merchant bailor is far superior to that in ready-mades.

BECAUSE in merchant tailored clothes you get an exact fitting to your physique and -workmanship of much higher quality. Have your next suit merchant tailored. See and tell the difference. WE ALSO DO CLEANING.- PRESSING ND REPAIRING. Young Men's Tailors B. GREEXBERG, Prop. 61 State St. Phone 771

An agreement has been reached between the Gary, school board and the Gary Land cofnpany regarding the pos

session of the Jefferson school. As a result the school board ' has " again taken possession o the structure which was built by the, steel trust in 1907 out of Its own funds for the accommodation of f a.ry children. Under the- terms of the' Indiana statutes no one can build a school house and then sell it to the city. The building; cost $75,000. It was agreed tha the school city should pay $7,500 a year rental for ten years, at, which time the building and the land surrounding It would become the' property of the city. The land now has a value of something like $25,000, and Is increasing constantly. ' ' s ' Two years ago the school board decided not to pay any more rent and last July the steel corporation had the sheriff take possession of the property. As a result no summer school was held

,and It looked as if the building would

not De available this year.

The school investment has been a

loss to the steel trust and -v while the building s of no great value the location Is and the city will be the gainer by continuing to rent it.

true in the Twelfth district, which hotbed of Rooseveltlsm. .

When the Bull Moose gathered here for the Btate convention a short time ago it was expected that -the Twelfth district would show up with an enormous delegation which would make a lot of noise. But when the district meeting was held the night before the contention when all of the delegates were supposed to be here only about twenty men from the Twelfth district showed up. And this in spite of the fact that the district sent Roosevelt delegates to the Chicago convention by a unanimous vote of all of its counties. It Is known too that many of the twenty that were here were not in favor of nominating separate county tickets In the Twelfth district coun-

tleu. Noble county and Lagrange cotin- ' ty both were- opposed to it, only two

men from these counties expressing themselves in favor of the plan. I.a-j grange county delegates made the statement that there had never been a i Democrats In a county office In that I county and that they did not want to allow a Democrat to be elected this year. But, they said, if the Bull Moose nominate a third ticket the 4emocras probably will win at the election. I A similar statement was made by the '

(Noble county delegates. They stated, 'as did the Lagrange county men, that

the regular Republican county tickets up there were composed entirely of

Roosevelt men, and that the people were satisfied with these nominations, and that any third party interference

In these--" utters would be resented. So, Lee'a ultimatum will undoubtedly fall like a wet blanket on Lagrange and Noble counties, In which there are more Bull Moose to the square in"h than in any other county In the state. The Twelfth district congressional convention at Kendallvllle today promises to be a lively affair for the very same reason. It Is known that a large

number of Bull Moose- will attend the convention as delegates and they are figuring on nominating a Bull Moose for Congress. . On. the other hand the regular Republicans figure on controlling the convention, and James E.Watson, a pro-Taft man, has been chosen as the speaker for the day. Just what the Bull Moosers will do in the face of Leo's pronouncement will be awaited with interest.

ALLARDT CANCELS CONTRACT fCentlnued from Pate k

to be applied on the money he bor

rowed from the Allardts. The Allardts were to furnish the chorus girls and the rest of the cast! Thaf'The Geezer" was rotten was indicated by criticism in The Times last week. The show was so poor, in fact, that complaints were made to the Allardt Brothers and the show was forthwith canceled. Manager Hankenson called the company on the stage Sunday night and told the members that they were through with them. He did this so that the company would not "lay down" on the last performance. Then Hankenson took steps to attach the scenery owned by Nat yields bo that the Allardts could get back the money they claim to have advanced to 'Fields. Fields has employed Attorney W. J. McAleer to fight the case for him. He claims that he has paid Allardt in full for the money he borrowed. Fields Is very angry over the turn affairs have taken. In the meantime Manager Hanken-. son has been notified that some first class vaudeville has been boolfed for Hammond and will be seen in the the--ntpr as usual today. S

John Leavenworth, who was employed at the GrasselU Chemical plant but who left there about six months

ago xor .Philadelphia, has written' friends in East Chicago, that he will I

go Into the -aviation business. He will leave New York next month for Paris, where he will make a thorough study of air craft of all styles and descrip

tions, wit na view of learning the j

science or aerial navigation, to an extent that will make him master of any air craft extant. Leavenworth, who is only 19 years ipf age, became Interested in airships at the time Ely's biplane met with its sensational fiasco on the first attempted trip from Chicago to New York, dropping In the fewamp Just north of East Chicago. The young man at that time was one of the most interested visitor

to the spot wher4 for a number of ! hours the machine rested before . it i

was shipped back to Chicago for re- J

pairs. Up to that time he had never seen an airship,-, nor had he evinced the slightest interest in aerial navigation. He went, however, with thecurious throng of onlookers to where the disabled craft lay and engaged In conversation with the famous birdman,. who has since met his fate in his venturesome pursuit. Ely took considerable pains, to. explain his craft to the eager young man, who seemed to grasp the ideas he sought to convey with remarkable clearness. After his conversation 'With Ely - Leavenworth began to .devour every particle of reading matter he could lay his hands

on concerning aerial navigation. He haunted aeroplane meets whenever opportunity " afforded and the recent death of a relative who left him a small fortune has made it. possible for the young man to pursue his ttndies of air craft and . Kis friends bellffve, that the world'' will yet hear of him. eLavenworth came to East Chicago from South Chicago to. take a position with the -GrasseUl pebple.

supported him7 at the Chicago convention, still -like him but they do not propose to allow 'their ' admiration for Roosevelt to drive them out of the Re

publican party,..at least in local affairs.

They think that local politics and na-'

tional politics are two entirely, different thing, and that one should not ln-: fluence .the other.

In many places Rosevelt men have

been nominated on county Republican

tickets, and this has happened in many counties iix .which the Republicans, If united as they have been in the past, easily would carry the county election and elect their tickets. " Thus Roosevelt men would be placed in the county offices.- This could be done without in any manner affecting the standing of these men either in national or local opinions. But Lee now insists that where Roosevelt men are nominated on Republican' tickets the must resign and accept places on Bull Moose county tickets or " that straight Bull Moose tickets will be , nominated against them. Of course, this plan will make many a man mad' and it will cause thousands of Republicans who might otherwise be inclined to support the Roosevelt national ticket to resent Lee'a Interference' and they will line up for the full Republican ticket. Taft and all. There does ;not appear to be any doubt about this, if one may Judge from what these men say from various parts of the state. It is kaown to be especially
