Menn9 II. S. (10 HALL: NO BASKET BALL Games Cannot Be Played Because of Lack of a Suitable Floor. The Hammond high .school may not be represented by a basketball team this year, according to Captain Swanton. This is due to the fact that it has been unable to find a hall in Hammond which in turn will throw them out of the Lake County High School asketball association. For months the basket ball team has been searching for a hall, but has met with no success. The Heintz skating rink Is the only possible site, but the enormous rent that has been asked for its use has given the basketball shooters very little encouragement. While other high school teams In the county have been playing for at least a month, the Hammond squad has not had a ball in its hands. Captain Swanton stated this morning that he has the best' material to pick from than htere has been In years, and if a hall could be found a championship quintet could be turned out. Hammond was scheduled to start their season Jan. 3 with the Bowen high school of South Chicago. THE TIMES IS TRT1SG HARD TO MERIT THE SUCCESS IT HAS ACHIEVED. DAKGER FROM GRIPPE Lies In That Cough and Weak, Worn Oat Condition. Grippe, pleurisy, pneumonia, these are greatly to be feared at this time of the year. To prevent grippe from being followed by either pleurisy or pneumonia. it Is lmprotant to drive the last traces of It out of the- system quickly.

Crabill of Strasburg, Va, says: "Grippe left me weak, rundown ani with a severe cough from which I suffered four years. I tried different remedies, but nothing seemed to do me any good until I took Vlnol, frorn which I received great benefit. My cough is almost entirely gone, and I am strong and well again, and I am glad to recommend Vinol to others who suffer as I did." Try Vinol with certainty that If It does not benefit you we will give back your money. L. Harry Wels, Druggist. Hammond. Ind. P. S. For Eczema of Scalp try our Saxo Salve. We guarantet It. Adv.
