and high temperature and the usual preliminary symptoms that, character" las the disease, and yesterday her aliment was pronounced scarlet fever. Mts Jessie loathe, the teacher in the kindergarten at the McICInley school, has been siefc for a week with appendicitis. Mlas Dathe makes her home with the Walter Spencers, Pha is getting along nicely and the necessity for an operation seems to have been averted. Tonight at 8 o'cloclf the Upworth League of the- Methodist church will entertain with a "hard times' social." A number of circumstances combined to make the Epworth Leaguers deoida to make their party a hard times af
fair. In the first place It was Friday. In the second place it is the 13th and in the third place there is a new moon which many have seen over their left shoulder. A large crowd is expected, as young people from all over the region have been Invited to attend. Entertainment of various sorts will be offered and refreshments will be served, and the young people are looking for
ward to a dandy tim. The civil section of the East Chicago Woman's club met with Mrs. H. H. Clark last night and held an interesting session. "Housing Laws in Indiana" was the general topic for dis-
Kcussion and the section arranged a pro
gram of study for the year. The members propose to make a survey as to local conditions and will also consider a number of social problems in accordance with a course of study out
lined by the slate university. The civil
sections of the woman's organizations
11 over the state are giving much
thought to these matters at the present time with a view to demanding
better legislation. The housing of the
poor will be the special consideration, of coursee, the matter to be looked at
from standpoints of hygiene, Safety ,ln case of fire, moral surroundings, etc.. For example, it. seems hopeless to expect decent men and women with high standards of morals and of citizenship to develop out of boys and girls brought up in tenements surrounded by vice and corruption, immoral dives, low saloons and squalor. These conditions the women interested in civic work, help to assist in regulating. Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Berquist are entertaining a few friends at an evening party tonight.
