The plant Is to be built forthwith. Now let the croakers in the bull frog chorus and the calamity-howlers, the knockers and the pessimists cease their lamentations! Let them take a day off and rest up a little. Their tongues have wagged until, spitless and cracked, they clove to the roofs of their mouths. Let everybody cheer up a little. Kindly remember the editorial warning given in these columns the day after the announcement of the coming of the plant was given over a year ago to this effect: "THE BALDWIN PLANT WILL BE BUILT, JUST AS SOON AS BUSINESS COMES TO WARRANT ITS CONSTRUCTION AND NOT BEFORE. GO SLOW!" The business is here, the plant to be built right away. , Again we say cheer up. is TOOK a New York woman five years to do it but she finally landed the presidency of the D. A. R. THE fact that a wealthy operator wanted a fountain in bank is no evidence of insanity. Sharrer wanted a fountain in Hammond Country Club and there. coal Doc the it's WOMEN NOW INDISPENSABLE. me success oi young women in office work is no longer a question, they have made good. They are rr 1 . : . wanted. There is nothing new in this. They have wanted, and have been employ ed in Increasing numbers for over j ' generation. But there is something new in the situation something startling that only recent years have developed This is that the business world today cannot get along without them. If woman should quit business in body, today great enterprises would be crippled, many of them temporarily ruined. There would be nobody to write the majority of business letters, and the bookkeeping force of many establishments would suffer severely. The young woman ha3 more than won her place in the busines world.

Whether thi3 is for the eternal benefit of the race or not is an open question, but the fact remaining that the business woman has made good. Undoubtedly shorthand and typewriting are the leading avenues to success in the lives of business wom en. i ne career or tne young woman wno taxes up stenograpny as a profession is a pleasant and a profitable one. If she is a young person of good common school education and special ability in shorthand and typewriting, r.er success is assured from the very day she goes to seek a position, for he will begin by doing the regula stenographic work of the office, and finally, if her work is acceptable, she will become the head stenographer. doing the manager's private work. wnai is true or the young woman is even more true of the young man, for many of the choicest positions In me Dusiness worm ior young men are open to those who understand shorthand and typewriting. Private secretaries, court reporters, civil service stenographers, newspaper men and young men of all kinds may get a splendid start in business through stenography. The brains of a business man flow through the fingers of the stenog rahphers. There are few business plans with which the man or woman with the pencil is not made familiar ine patnway to Knowledge or any business lies so straight before the writer of the firm's letters that failure to see the path and walk: in it is the fault of the stenographer him self. FREE sugar will bring ruin to them according to the planters. Well the price is too high so reveDge mus be sweet. THE weather man may predlc rising temperature" until he ! black in the face, but he doesn seem to be able to put it across. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE The Hammond Chamber of Com merce approaches the conclusion of its first year of civic activity in Ham mond and looks back on a record of which it may well be proud. The inactivity that was the chie characteristic . of the old Hammond Business Men's Association was re placed by conspicuous activity. Meet ings of the board of directors, com prising some of the biggest men of the community, were held regularly General meetings were held when ever the occasion warranted it The deliberations of the directors of this body have always been digni fied and free from even the suspicion of clique control. No interests have swayed or sought to control the ver dict of this body. ' The verdict of the Hammond Chamber of Commerce on matters of public policy has been accepted as the verdict of the people of this community. It has been suggested without the suspicion of a taint. The progressiveness of the organi zation is 6hown by the fact that after only a few months of activity it ac quired for its uses the finest club rooms in the city of Hammond. The activity of the committees under the faithful leadership of Presi dent Virgil S. Reiter of the organization has been remarkable. With a few exceptions these committees have done the work that was assigned to .them. Nothing could better indicate

INASMUCH as we get along just as

well it would effect a great economy If Woodrow didn't appoint any one to fill the weather man's vacancy. THAT green cloud you see hansins the south is Indianapolis' jealousy because they start to build the Baldin Locomotive works up here in a few days. NOW that Mr. Bryan has arrived in Sacramento he wants to beware of the fact that California is a great place for lemons. AND MAYBE WITH PATCHES, TOO! Note that some of the Chicago stores are advertising trouser gowns. Great Caesar! Will it come to pass that the henpecked-man will have have to wear wifle's old gowns? HAVE the latest number of The Commoner before us. Woodrow comes in for a great deal of raise. But. wice as much space is devoted to the governmental doings of The Commonr's editor. SEE that they have elected an antaker as city chairman at Gary. Well, unnlng a city campaign in Gary is a grave undertaking. OJIBWAY TRIES TO DUPLICATE GARY'S HISTORY." Headline in Gary paper. No use unless you can get hizzoner to emigrate to Ojib. THIS WILL ALSO HELP. Also: The tariff is to be lowered on phenolphthaleln, binltrotolue!, benzalehyde, na phyl amisulfoacids, binitrobobenzol. amidonaptholsulfaclds, and d i amldostilbendisulfacid. Whoops, my dear! Aren't you glad? the splendid spirit of the organization. The entire community owes a debt of gratitude to Judge Virgil S. Reiter, who volunteered to take hold of the project as the president of the cham ber, and the officers and directors who have worked with him. EMINENT London physician hold that the afternoon nap is a danger ous thing as day dreams may make you go crazy. This makes a falling asleep at the switch a haza-dous occupation indeed. IT looks like a studied insult to Ohio to mention Mayor Whitlock for ambassador to Switzerland when the Montenegro job is still in stock. CASE OF LAW'S DELAY. No finer example of the law's de lay can be found than th case of Porter Charlton, the American youth charged with the murder of his wife on their honeymoon at Lake Como, Italy, June 7, 1910, now awaiting de cision by the Supreme Court. The case is before the court on an appeal from the refusal of the New Jersey court to release him on habeas corpus proceedings after the State Department had turned him over to the Italian authorities. Defence i3 (1) that Charlton com mitted no crime here; (2) Italy doesn't surrender her subjects for trial; (3) prisoner was insane at the time. The high court, it is hoped, will be able to clear away the legal entangle ments that have made this case a tcandal for nearly three years. Eight thousand men were killed in one day in Scutari. Think of .the fatherless little Peterklns who will never be able to appreciate this fa mous victory. AS the returns continue to come in it begins to look as though the Socialists had won the vice presidency. THE MOVING-PICTURE SHOW. The popularity of the movingpicure theater as a form of cheap eutertainment for the masses has directed attention to several of its undesirable features. In Chicago it is said that 250,000 persons, a considerable portion of whom are children. attend these theaters daily. Most of the theater buildings are cheap storerooms, remodeled for the purpose, often, without adequate provision for ventilation. It is estimated that the air is one of these theaters will pass through the lungs of the audience in from six to eight minutes. They therefore constitute, as the Chicago Health Bulletin remarks, one of the health problems called into existence by modern customs and conditions. In cities all over the country, the problem is practically the same. Involving the role of contact or close association in the spread of "colds" J and the various infectious diseases.

Ol'R readers will kindly pass up an error from now on as our cantankerous proofreader was so overcome by the preceding that he has made for the j nearest place where you can buy .pop. j

URGES HARDER MARRIAGE" is headline telling of a suffragette's speech. All right. If it gives a softer aftermath. LATEST thing now is that we should worry about our work. Have the gold dust twins do it. SUBSCRIBER asks who is the most enthusiastic fan, the president or the vice president. Well, the second in command raises the most wind. VUJO L1CANIC, Boozey Trublch, Louis Gerkovich, Nick Mlcklevich, Pete Kozazkozzlcht and Mike PovogoravitEitizzivitskl have been elected members of the Gary democratic city committee. In case they produce a successful campaign the Hon. Tom Knottskl can lendsky them to the mayor of Moscowvitch or the mayor of St. Petersburgsky. YE COMPETENT DOC. (Twelve-Mile correspondence to The Peru Republican.) John Swank of Fizzletown had a sick cow the other day. He called Dr. George Musselman of Denver, who sailed out in his neat little Ford auto and soon had the beast all right again. OTHER day The Examiner had a poem entitled "Iceland." It will be more appreciated three months hence. HOORAY! high cost of living is going down. Democrats are going to take the tariff oft of acorns, asafetida, hoofs, dragon's blood, ashes, coculus indicus, rags and leeches. There'll be no need for any one" to go hungry. NOW that the Rev. Billy Sunday is handing out wads of hot air at South Rend it is amusing to see how religious the newspapers of that city are trying to be at so many per column. It is a matter of observation that the incidence of the various infective diseases of childhood Immediately in creases on the opening of the schools in the fall on account of the increas ed opportunity for contact between infested and non-infected children It may therefore be reasonably as sumed that the close contact in the moving-picture theater is also a factor in the distribution of infectious diseases, bince it is not easy to ex clude those who have diseases or who come from homes where disease exists, well-considered regulations as to ventilation and sanitation should be enforced for the protection of ths public. WHAT part of the cost of living is the income tax expected to reduce? EVERYBODY will agree with Dr. Osier that twenty-four hours is enough of a day for any man. MONTGOMERY COUNTY WISDOM. We clip this bit of wisdom, from the pen of the Waynetown correspondent, which was printed in the Crawfordsville Journal: "We may be an old fogy, but we make a struggle to keep In sight. There are a number of cases where the surgeon's knife Is the only chance to save life, but the business of rushing every victim to the block whose case the doctor cannot reach with a dose of calomel, will be a most unpopular business . five years hence, or our 'horoscope' has not been properly adjusted." Without being considered facetious we refer the item to the Lake County Medical society for contemplation. WHOLLY UNCALLED FOR. The editor of the Yellow Jacket should be slapped on the wrist. He is too pessimistic. He advises the democrats to begin to plant their soup beans at once. JUST CLING TO IT. Of all the antiquated, foolish things this town clings to, the fire whistle takes the cake. Why everybody should be notified every time the fire laddies are called out, when half the time the calls are false or near false ones, is past finding out. In larger and more progressive cities everything possible is done to keep people away from fires. In Hattlesburg they are all invited to them. But they wouldn't change! Why, good Lorfl, they'll be blowing that crazy whistle when Gabriel blows his horn. Hattiesburg News. THE only way to placate those Tokyo mobs is to put up a few score boards for them. PERHAPS the best way to cool California off is to withdraw all the United tSates army and naval forces from that state and order the Pacific fleet to the Atlantic. ADVERTISE!

VOICE OF RE2 O P lTe Bt J.L MOOSE PARTY OT PERM AX EXT To Editor Times: Sir In reply to my newspaper let ters various persons have written me, some stating that Bull Moosers will never co-operate with the Republican party. It seems to me these friends have not fully considered the following three facts: 1. Bull Mooseism was not born to kill the Republican party, but to save it, to redeem It from standpattism, reactionary Ideals, bosa rule, and to make the party's machinery responsive to the progreasiveness of the rank and file of Republicans. But starting a new party and permanently drawing part of the Progressives out of the old Republican party would have merely the effect of giving the standpatters more influence than before. Every act to ward starting a permanent new party violates the wishes and intentions of the original Bull Moose movement. 2. The figures show that the Bull Moosera rejected the third party plan last November. Omitting the southern strictly Democratic states, and consid ering the Republican states, where two tickets were nominated, we find that ndiana was the one lone state where Bull Mooseism as a party ticket de feated the Republican party ticket. Outside Indiana the Republican party elected Governors in thirteen states. The Bull Moose party nominated eighteen governorship candidates, but elected none, running behind Republicans in al states but Indiana. The Re publican party carried the legislatures In twenty states, the Bull Moose party carrying not a. single legislature. In fourteen more states the Republicans elected 1,115 members of legislatures, the Bull Moose party only 188. In the house of representatives. Republicans elected 129 members. Bull Moosers only 15. Three progressive Republicans are more or less affiliating with their caucus. In the senate the Republicans have elected and re-elected thirteen new senators. Bull Moosers not one, but lost two. Dixon and Bourne. 3. There has been no flood of acces sions to the Bull Moose party as a per manent party since last November. The 1913 spring elections show in St. Louis a Republican elected mayor, while the Bull Moose vote falls from 24,748 to 4,611. Roosevelt's 90,000 majority in Chicago disappears. Republicans beat ing Bull Moosers '"nearly three to one." In Michigan state electlosn Republicans have 30,000 majority. Progresive Republicanism is the future outlook. DANE G. DUNLOP.

Kerosene is a good medium for removing rust from steel, but the article will require polishing afterward.

What ia tho method by which tho amortization of a bond or debt is do rived? Amortisation amounts to no more than an Installment loan. The term of the debt having been determined by mutual agreement and the number of payment periods, which may be annual, in larger business concerns semiannual, and particularly in suburban real estate traffic, monthly. The amount of each payment Is readily determinable by the common arithmetical rule of partial payments. The basic principle Is that the sum of all the payments shall produce at the end of the term such amount as the creditor would receive by a lump payment at term with accrued Interest. The advantage to the debtor is that his Installments are readily within his means and that with each payment he Is decreasing the burden of Interest charges. In what state are oouoino permitted to marry? Marriage between first cousins Is forbidden only In Alaska. Arizona, Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas. Missouri, Nevada.
