ON THE HOME, At a function given not far bence the other night the discussion of suffrage for women became quite In teresting. One lady who did not be lieve in suffrage for her sex paid that an ideal home was the solution of the problem. In expressing her views at length she said: "Don't you know thSt It Is a home that holds a man and woman together after the first flame of love has died down? The little home comforts, the sense of ease and well being that can be found only In one's own home make a greater appeal to a man than most women give him credit for. For what other reason does the average man marry than to build for himself and the woman he loves' a litle sanctuary called home? With this vision in his mind he works and schemes until he makes the home of his dreams a reality. There nothing like a home and the woman In it to give a. man ambition. "And the woman what work is cut out for her? Perhaps you say drudgery. Yes, It is drudgery un- . less infinite love. is there to soften the service, but hardships are forgotten, when praise and apprecia- " tion meet one's efforts. . "The average woman's place is In the home, and If she. is to make this work a sttccestt she will give , to It Just as much brains and ability as she expended in clicking a. ' typewriter." Was she right or was she wrong ; A HIGH CLASS MAN NEEDED. . It is to be hoped that the county commissioners and the county auditor, who have the appointing of tha successor to Richard Schaaf Sr., will have a full appreciation of the responsibility which they are about to face. - The county commissioners of Lake County have the annual disbursement of $500',000. The sum fs larger

Perhaps not recently; but in the past, there has been a great deal of sfandal about the building of these roads. There has been the suggestion that the job has been skinned, In a number of instances.' Then too there are the bridge men who are continually making improper overtures to county officials to permit a change in specifications or additional time on their contracts. The material men however over the entire situation like a lot of vultures ready to descend at the first scenting of corruption. It is continually possible for commissioners, were they so disposed, to permit the transfer of saloon licenses from the township to the city or from one city to another in direct violation of the law and the rights of the saloon keeper holding legitimate licenses. So the office of county commissioner is one of constant temptation. Its temptations are in the exact proportion to Its opportunities and re sponsibilities; and these are great. No man should be appointed who cannot make a success of his own business. The general public is not going to approve of the appointment of a man merely In the., payment, of a party obligation, it is not going to favor the appointment of a man simply because he is able to make the loudest argument in some political caucus, citizens generally are only going to approve the kind of a man who would be "deemed big enough to hold so im portant a post in civil life. The kind of a man who is needed is a man who can give services worth $25,000 a year for $1,600 a year. That the candidate comes from Gary, from Whiting, from East Chicago. from Hammond or from Hobart does not enter into the consideration. The sole qualification of the candi date should be his business ability and his undisputed Integrity. And the measure should be closely ap plied. The selection will have to be made from North, Calumet or Hobart township. The man selected should be in thorough accord with the spirit of progress that prevails in the sections that are being mo3t rapidly, developed. The appointment will be made by republicans and the republican party will be held directly accountable for the selection that is made. It is the most serious matter that has come up for consideration for a long time. IN the meantime Brother Hearst is trying to see how far he can go with both Mr. Wilson and Mr. Rryan In the way of lampooning them. v PERHAPS it was the "September Morn" picture that brought on the blizard. If so the young lady has more to answer for than her lack of clingerie. ONE PLAUSIBLE ONE IMPOSSIBLE There is something to the sugges tion of President Norton of the Com mercial club that the Gary harbor Blip be extended to the Grand Calu met river, a few hundred feet away. and that the government stream be lined with docks from Virginia street to Broadway bridge. Thi3 would necessitate widening and dredging the river. Gary's present harbor facilities are confined to the uses of the steel cor poratlon, the. owner. The Norton plan would provide a municipal har bor, but it would be for the time be ing only. With but one commodity coming into Its harbor, ore, and to one consumer at that, the tonnage of the port of Gary is now equal to one fifth the tonnage of the port of Chi cago. The day is not far away when the other business and industrial in terests of Gary will need a harbor and the city's future growth will -be of such proportions that the proposed

I How can hard eaat iron bo drilled T Heat the Iron to a red heat and drop brimstone on the spot to be drilled. Who was the -Fighting Parson?" Governor Brownlow of Tennessee (lS61-5) wa$ known aa the "Fighting" Parson." Did Wood row Wilton ever attend Johns Hopkins university? Yea. During 1SS2. 1883 and 1884 he was a student of history and political economy at that university. Which ia the Blue Hen State f Delaware. Where do the remains of John Paul Jonas rest?

It Is produced from coal tar. half mile of wharfage from Broadway bridge to Virginia street will ho wholly inadequate. Extension to the cast or west will have to be taken care of to provide for expansion that Is sure to come. The United States Steel corpora tion owes it to the city that it has created to help it get harbor facili ties. And, without doubt congress will give aid to the plan outlined by Capt. Norton. As to the other proposition, proposed by the Gary council to dig a canal to the Little Calumet river and its marshes seems to be too vast an undertaking. There is feasibility in the first mentioned plan and the Gary Commercial club ought to loose no time in boosting it. AS BAD IN THIS REGION. The Commissioner of Health of Chicago has issued a. warning to operators of film theatres to ventilate or close up shop. Judging from the stuffy and garlic ridden theatres pn the Jersey side of Chicago local health commissioners might see that there Is value in Dr. Young's warning. The air in some of the nickel theatres in the cities of the Calumet region is so bad, it reeks so with tha smell of sweat and human effluvia that persons with sensitive stomachs simply have to get up and leave. A lot of people are forced to forego the pleasure of good pictures in theatres because the ventilation is so bad. . A DEMOCRATIC paper says that all of Wilson's sabinet are progressive.

Under Indiana's new press muzzling law about the worst that any newspaper is permitted to say of any politician is that he is a gentleman and a scholar. In discussing the claims of candidates hereafter it will be necessary it would seem, to refer to the gentry only in a manner somewhat similar to those' articles of superlative adujation which appear in the rural week-

Was James Whitcamb Riley ever secretary f the Demeorati national committee? No, but a James Whltcotab Reilly wan secretary to Norman E. Mack when he was chairman of the committee. What is the origin of the dollar mark? Until after the beginning of the pre eht century the moat extanaively used mark In this country was the Spanish piece of eight, of the value of 8 reals, or about 100 cents. In most of the coins the obverse bore a large figure 8 In bold relief and on each side a column representing the Pillars of Hercules. In many of the later coins the pillars were placed within the curves of the figure. It became customary In writing the figures which designated sums of money to place after them the mark denoting the value In pieces of eight, and late in the last century for convenience 'the dollar mark was placed In front of the figures. How long is a furlong? A furlong la one-eighth of a statute mile, or 220 yards. Was Woodrow Wilson a member of . the "famous class of 19," and, if so, who were its ether members? Yes. The other members were Robert Bridges, on of the editors of Scrlbner's Magazine; the Rev. Dr. A. S. Halsey, secretary of the Presbyterian board of foreign missions; Charles A. Talcott, M. C; M anion Pitney, Jaatlca of the supreme court of the United States; Robert H. McCarter, ex -attorney general of New Jersey; Edward W. Sheldon, president of the United States Trust company; Colonel Edwin A. Sterena of New Jersey aad Judge Robert R. Henderson of Maryland. Has a Cornell graduate ever been president? No. When was the first American flag made? In Philadelphia In 1777 by Mrs. Betay Ross. It was designed by Captain S. C. Reed. Where was the first presidential inauguration held? At Federal hall in New Xork (the site of the present subtreatBry),, lies after the candidate has paid his $5 or $10 In advance for a formal announcement of his candidacy. The average politician who ha had an experience of that kind feels that the paper honored with his cash in advance announcement is tfhder eternal obligations to htm, and should be everlastingly at his service thereafter. This, despite the fact that he may not have paid a cent on subscription "since old Hec was a pup," and may have been the recipient of numerous past favors at the hands of the publisher. Probably there Is no member of tho Indiana legislature who did not solicit newspaper support for assistance of some kind when he was making his race for nomination and election. .Probably a majority of those who compose the legislature owe their election largely to the favbr of the newspapers. The character of gratitude that is felt is evidenced by the passage of the press-muazHng law, an act which, If held valid, would very greatly embarass the newspapers in their treatment of public questions, and would virtually forbid: any criticisms of any politician, however corrupt or unworthy he might be. There are very few papers which make a living from politics. The average paper could not live six months if it depended solely upon politicians for its support. Tho tendency among the present-day newspapers Is to get away from partisan politics, and there Is tmall wonder that such is the case. It is rather strange that so many of the men In politics are so utterly blind to the signs of the times. -Louisville Courier-Journal. ! FEW Hammond women r.flra nhmif voting.

"AESTHETIC Laporte has the distinction of consuming more bottled heer than any other city of 20,000 and under in the state." Exchange. We have our opinion of the city that consumes the most bottled beer.

In another month those craey bugs, the Soxitls, Cubists, Giantitls, and Napist fans, will be nutting around. VOICE OF P E O F LE THE NEW CHILD Ct'LTTnE. Editor, Times: To many thpughtful minds one of the most vital problems in the world today is the moral education of the child. It is comparatively easy to mold aright the little mind and soul during tho plastic, formative period, but If this is neglected the result is often a malformed brain that may rule to ruin In after years. Many parents and teachers. Including the writer, have employed mental suggestion with remarkable success in character building. A brief outline of the method may prove helpful to some of the readers of The Times. First win the child's love and confidence. If it has a fanlt to overcome, or if you wish to establish an particular virtue, earnestly and impressively repeat to It affirmations adapted to its need, every morning and Just before it falls asleep each night, but always when it is in a passive, receptive mood. For instance. If it Is selfish, say to It: "Deep down In your little heart you are kind and loving. You always do unto others as you would have them do unto you. You will try to make us all happy." Seldom refer to Its fault, but embrace every opportunity to praise it for the desired trait. If these affirmations are often and deeply impressed on the child's mind and heart, they will almost invariably become controlling factors in Us character. Every true life and every noble deed In Inspired by an enlightened intellect, conscience and love. To develop these qiisilties In the child they must be con; stantly appealed to and made the ruling motives of conduct. Teach it What is right and wrong, and tvhy. Encourage It to do acts of kindness and helpfulness. Ftead to it stories recounting deeds of moral heroism. Impress upon It that every good thought and act helps to develop a noble character the on essential condition of highest happiness In this life and that to come; that every evil thought and act deforms Its soul and must inevitably result in Unhappiness. Above all. parents should remember that example Is more potent than precept. "Like begets like." By always living, thinking and desiring the pure, the good and the true, they may most surely create these conditions In their children. When the little mind Is unfolding beneath the mother's heart, then Is her golden opportunity to implant noble talents and tendencies. In the light of the new psychology, we know that every absorbing thought and heartfelt desire she entertains during the prenatal period Is telep&thed to the form-

F. M. CRAIG. Denver Colo. Meart to Heart Talho By JAMES A. EDCERTON HE PAID THE PRICK. On Observation hill, near the edge of the antarctic continent, members of the polar expedition beaded by Captain Robert F. Scott, set up a memorial cross for their fallen leader and his brave companions. On It appears this fine line from Tennyson's "Ulysses:" "To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." Captain Scott's fate was a peculiarly sad one. He reached the south pole to discover that another had preceded him there by a scant month.' He returned to a point nearly in sight of the harbor to die of cold and privation. Yet mournful as was his end 'there shines out of it a certain white glory. We feel glsd in a big way not that he died, but that he lived. . We feel glad that he dared take large risks to win a large prize, that he was not afra'd to pay tbe price, that he kept Up his records to the end, and that be met his fnte tike a man. He strove, he sougtt, ha found and did not yield. J When one man shows a notable example of heroism, when he comes np to the mark in a Conspicuous way, he makes nil men a little richer, better, stronger. We human beings nre so knit together In our lire, so Interwoven In one texture of , humanity, so dependent each on all and nil or, each, that one great deed becomes tne property and pride of all of us. A new standard ha been set: a iew Incentive is before u. Each high' and worthy Achievement by man makes human nature higher and more worthy. It shows what man can be at his best. Captain Scott won his goal. That another won it first docs cot lessen his labor or success. There is glory enough for all. He marched hundreds of miles through a white wilderpess. suffering nrirntions. arduous lnbors. great perils, hunger and cold, id add tft the' sum of human knowledge and human achievement He gava bis life to science. ' Best of all- ' He did net yield.
