An Italian boy is -hot a 'dago-' a Chinese boy net a 'Chink, "We need missionaries in Lake county where every nationality on the globe Is represented. We are nearly all foreigners here and none are natives except the Indians.

Surprised.
Showing magnificent Improvement over their first season's play when they were learning the game, Hammonds golf team triumphed over Michigan City last Saturday afternoon in the first of a series of three matches for the silver trophy. Last year Michigan City twice played rings around Hammond . The result, while particularly disappointing to Michigan City, is Just as gratifying to the Hammond golfers
who have not yet been playing a year at the game, with one exception. The final score was 16 for Hammond and 8 for Michigan City, the visitors from the Hoosier Slide town being 8 down at the end of the match.

man, responded Hodges.
"You are a malefactor of great wealth," Bolice is declared to have
answered, although others present said
that Bolice uttered something about

Tobacco Supports Kavalla. A historian, -writing less than fifty years ago, speaks of Kavalla, the Naples or Neapolis of Macedonia, as "a small Turkish village." When I visited it In the early days of 1912, says a writer in the Christian Herald, I found it a thriving city, the second seaport in Macedonia, beautifully situated around the little bay that forms its harbor, while on one side Is a great citadel crowned with a Turkish fortress. The narrow streets are cleaner than most Turkish cities can boast, and there are really fine and imposing buildings. These are mostly tobacco warehouses, or belong to tobacco magnates, for this weed must at least be given the credit for the present prosperity of this rising town, which is
the great tobacco port and manufacturing center of Macedonia. The chief ruins, which date back to Paul's' time, are the remains of a huge Roman aqueduct, whose magnificent arches until two years before my visit had brought water to the modern city.
