In connection with the sale of Lucky

Every reader of Tad's famous Daffy-

From the time of its first appearance, the manufacturers of Lucky Strike have been readily striving to put it into a more convenient form for the consumption of, pipe smokers, while consistently maintaining its high grade, mild, fragrant qualities. It was first made as a plug, from which the smokers sliced it then it was found advisable to put it out in slice form ready to be rolled and put , into the pipe and now it goes to the smoker in ideal form in rolled cut, in tins ready for the pipe.

EAST CHICAGO TO
PLAYMARQUETTS
The East Chicago baseball club ha
booked the strongest park club in Chicago, Jack Keary's famous Mar
quetts for Sunday, July 27. 3 p. m. at East Chicago. The Marquetts' home in Chicago is the DePaul baseball park
or better known as the Chicago Fed
era! Leairue ball park. When the
league club is at home the Marquetts
travel, and when the league club is away the Marquetts occupy the home grounds. The Marquetts have a per
fect record to date, not having lost
game this season, last Sunday they
travelled over to Michigan City, Ind
and trimmed them by the tune of 4 to

allowing: but two hits, one scratch hit
and the other a two base hit by MoiTet
This is the same pitcher who was pitching for the Cubs in the spring of
1908. They have a hard hitting ball
club and it will take all East Chicago
has to put one over on them.
The directors of the East Chicago
baseball association has been so dis
couraged . with the poor attendance at
the games up to date, that they had
to give it up, as far as guaranteeing
the players regular salaries Is con
cerned and left it up to the players
themselves to split the gate receipts. The players have accepted this prop
osition, at least they are going to give
it a trial this Sunday and perhaps nex
Sunday, if the fans, baseball lovers
and sports of the town turn out bette
and stronger, or care to have baseball
in East Chicago, they can only by at
tending the games regular, otherwise the club will disband, which would be
a shame on account of the great rec
ord the ball club has made this yea
for East Chicago which they may well
be proud.
Last Sunday's game was the most In
teresting game of ball ever witnessed in East Chica even more so than the score would indicate, both clubs scored

PMMiW HQSIUES EDEFORIEUD ft. 2 July 24, 1913. "The Administration's Record of Achievement." There are two ways in which the affairs of a city may be administered. One is the old way, following lines of least resistance; carefully avoiding any action that is calculated to make political enemies in short, conducting the affairs of the city as a political rather than a business proposition. The other, the Smalley way, is to determine what the people need, what they want, what is necessary in the interests of maintaining Hammond's position as the leading city of the Calumet region and then act without fear or favor. No great public improvement is ever put through without making a few property oAvners sore. But that did not deter Smalley from opening State Line street, an improvement that waited for vears.
It did not prevent the opening of Calumet avenue, an improvement that has called the attention of the entire Calumet region to Hammond's great east side and has increased real estate values tremendously. It did not stop the annexing of six square miles of territory south of the city in the face of the opposition of many Hammond citizens who own property there and seek to avoid the extra taxation, a move that will make Hammond the largest and most populous city in Lake county. It did not deter him encouraging the granting of franchises to the Green line so that the truck farming districts may hive Hammond service (as bad as it is) in place of department store busses. The business man will get the benefit. In addition to these great achievements John I). Smalley, the man some say has no back bone, had the nerve to put through the deep sewer program in the face of the remonstrance of 800 voters but at the solicitation of progressive citizens everywhere who wanted to see Hammond placed in a position that will make its
growth unrestricted and responsive to the needs of a rapidly growing manufacturing community. In five years Smalley's foresight will be universally applauded. Scores of other achievements are credited to him. The city hall has been made habitable , the policemen's and firemen's pension funds were established, scores of street and sewer improvements have been made. These are all Smalley achievements and yet he has not been mayor in his own right and as the successor of Becker has felt that he ought to wait until he comes, with a commission from the people before initiating and inaugurating certain great projects that he has evolved since taking the appointment as mayor.
rriends ot Smalley know that the real Smalley administration will be the one and will mark the greatest period of advancement that Hammond has known.
No shadows will hang over the next administration. No boss will attempt to dictate the mayor's policies. The democratic party in Hammond will be able to point to a clean, decent, sane, business administration. And that, in the end. will do the democratic party in this community more good than a constant effort of use the machinery of city government in the perpetuation of factonal control of the party.
