1
In ten years more the fight for supremacy, the light of one city to call itself the metropolis of the Calumet region, will be settled for once and for all time. All of the available manufacturing sites of any size will have been utilized and the lines of development will be determined. Thoroughfares will be distinguished from ordinary streets and will become commercial marts. The region is to have oue city that it will recognize as the commercial, financial and social center of the entire district. The region has been well described as a chess board on which each city is playing a game, the reward for victory being supremacy. The most masterly move that has ever been made in this great contest was the action of Mayor John D. Smalley, City Attorney John Gavit and the city council, under them, in annexing six square miles of territory including Saxon' and Ilessville. This territory is not only the finest and richest in northern Indiana but it is ad
mirably adapted for the expansion o? the future residential sections of Hammond.
By the use of splendid strategy the opposition of the land owners was overcome and in five years, by an order of the court already entered, the limits of Hammond will be extended to the Little Calumet river. Five 3ears is a short time in the history of the growth of a city. By that time Hammond will have expanded to its present city limits. It will be solidly built up from the southern boundary of the Gogebic Iron Co. at One Hundred and Forty-third street to Standard avenue and from the State line to Columbia avenue. Had Mayor Smalley not taken his timely action Gary or Munster or Highlands might have grabbed up the territory. As it is there will be $2,000,000 in valuation and 5,000 people brought into Hammond in five years. But more important than anything else is the fact that it is in this territory that the future high class residential districts of Hammond and East Chicago are' to be located. It is here that the Englewoods, Evanstons and Hyde' Parks of Hammond are to be laid out. It is here that the toilers in the factories, in the offices, in the stores are going to live. It is here that the soil is fertile enough to raise trees and lawns and support back door gardens. ' . . . In twenty years when Hohman street, Calumet avenue and Columbia avenue are swarming with automobiles, street cars, intemrban cars and other modes of conveyancearrying thousands of people to and fro from their work to their homes in these garden spots the people of Hammond will giye Mayor John D. Smalley the credit for taking the necessary steps to make that territory a part of Hammond And when a man has the perception to see these things and the ability to take advantage of his opportunities in such a masterful way the people ought to retain him in office and not take chances on getting a man in his place who will make politics subservient to his public duties. The only way Smalley can be retained in office is for the democrats to renominate him in the primaries next Saturday. Advertising.

FOOTBALL LEAGUE IS
TALKED OF
Talk of a Northern Indiana Football league reached Hammond today and
upon being: tracked back to South Bend was found to be a promoting proposition about which nothing definite has been decided as yet. In the forecast of this proposed
league it is estimated that at least six teams could be Induced to unite. Hammond, Gary, Souh Bendt Laporte East Chicago Goshen and Valparaiso are possibilities These towns are even more friendly to football than they are to baseball. WO Favorable " A monkey wrench was thrown into the machinery of this league, however, by the announcement in Hammond of an all star football eleven in which collegians from East Chicago, Indiana Harbor and Crown Point are to play with Hammond. Among these are
Matt Sternberg, Ralph Young Frits
and other well-
known college players who have earned reps, away from home.

"THE NEW FREEDOM. The abore la the title of a new book
by Trestdent Wilson. Ilis dominant j idea is that business should be emancipated and the avenues of opportunity opened to all men as they were in our early history. There is a new freedom that Is yet wider. In the past we have been slaves to many things that eould have been banished by a proper exercise of reason and will power. We have been slaves to ignorance. In . this age of public and private schools, colleges, universities, libraries, newspapers, magazines, public lectures, churches, study clnbs, instructive en
tertainments and the thousand and one other agencies for imparting information and culture there is" no excuse for any human being to remain in ignorance. Intelligence is the great emancipator. The truth shall make us free. We have been slaves to prejudice. Prejudice is but another name for narrowness, for lack of Information, for provincialism, for egotism, for the absence of sympathy and understanding. If the prejudice is against a person it wo14 probabiy be dispelled if we knew this person better. If it is against some new idea it usually ar-

THE PEOPLE'S MEDICINES
Are standard advertised remedies in common use today, many of which were used by our mothers and grandmothers With most beneficial results. Scores of these same medicines are prescribed by honest, competent physicians because they know of no better remedy. Such is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound which has proved wonderfully successful in alleviating suffering caused by female ills. Adv.-
ficlently to see what this idea means. In any case it hurts only ourselves. It
but advertises our own limitations. We should ever be open to the truth and
accept it from whatever source it
comes.
We have been slaves to our appe
tites.
The appetites have a beneficent func
tion. Thoy are given us for the preser
vation of our Individual Uvea and the life of the race. We should use them
with temperance and sanity for these functions. Beyond this we should be
free from them. They have no power i over us except "what we ourselves give
them. Rightly controlled they contribute to our own happiness and do not Interfere wih the happiness of others. The body should be a servant, not a master. - We have been slaves to false habits, to Imaginary ailments, to real aliments that could have been overcome by right thinking, will power and correct living. The honr of our emancipation has come, and we are our own liberators. The sovereign spirit of man ia too big for such petty bondage. Come up into the free air and let the self imposed shackles drop away.
