DEAVER TALKS ON SEX
Y
A new angle to the Cook county conroversy on Sex Hygiene came to light n West Hammond today when A. Q. Deaver, superintendent of schools, deounced the study as a "fad." Further an that, he rated it as impractical by 'lying that "school teachers who are inexperienced in those matters are not fitted to give sex instruction, but docors who have spent years In the tudy are the proper candidates for that job." Add Manuel Training; and Science. Supt. Deaver is just returned from visit in the east. This year ha beleves will be particularly noteworthy in "West Hammond school history. Al though he has rejected sex hygiene. eachers have been secured to introduce manuel training and domestic science. It is Deaver's way of working out the alvatlon of the youth. A complete new heating plant has been installed In the West Hammond The earnings of the Baldwin Loco motive Works, the second largest producers of railroad motive power in the country, for seven months to Aug. 1 ast, were at a rate Indicating net profits for the year ending Dec. 31 next, somewhat greater than tha showng made In 1912. The balance earned on the company's $20,000,000 common stock tast year was equal to 11.1 per cent. This year t Is expected to bring the showing up to probably 13.5 per cent. , It Is understood that the company, has orders In hand for sufficient for ward delivery to keep plants tn operation as they are now running up to November. In a broad way the 191S results are' already made. Baldwin Locomotive was fortunate In having a large carry-over of un filled business at the beginning of Its 1913 year. This carry-over amounted to between 112,000,000 and 114,000,000, or, aay, nearly six months' production as measured by the $28,924,000 of -orders filled daring th fiscal period to Dec. 31 last. Expect Foi-rrnrd Baaiae. Because of slack conditions In the last three months, however. It Is rea sonable to suppose that the Baldwin company will finish 191S with & some what smaller carry-over than at the end of 1S12. On the other hand, rail clerks have followed ' each other out of the Majestic In the stilly night at Irregular intervals. The night clerk who payed himself off is Edgar Blllaney, a scapegoat son. He is said to be the fond off-spring of a Monon official In big position and to be a renegade. Others say that he : conducted himself as a "good fellow of clean habits while In Hammond. His term as night clerk In the Majestic lasted but a few nights. Judge Prest's Court. State of Indiana vs Mary Joseph and Alex Joseph. Arrested on a warrant for assault and battery.

Having heard at Peeksklll. N. Tf., Motherhouse of the Sisters of St. Frsncis. where I was visting, of Eckman's Alterative, I determined as a last report to try it. After taking four or five bottles large piece of diseased tissues came away. I continued the Alterative, to my grateful and daily relief, in ten months I was restored to perfect health. I would be glad to write or talk to any person who may have a doubt about It. I ' would like them to see and hear from mj- own lips. If they so desire, all I would sav of It." (Signed MOTHER M.

S THAN 1912 road buying of locomotives has been subnormal for fully three years, and there are good authorities who feel that the equipment shortage of the rairoads is really more pronounced.

The East Chicago Plaart. Baldwin works Is now engaged In building a large locomotive palant In East Chicago, the .first time the otnpany In Its long career has broken away from Its Philadelphia environment. This expenditure will naturally be taken from current resources and not capitalized through additional securities. This Important development means In all probability that common stockholders will be asked to content themselves with Uie present modest 2 per cent dividend on their shares, which is being earned five to six times over. The East Chicago plant also means an actual Increase In productive capacity, as the Philadelphia works will not shrink at all to make room for the new Western plant. The Chicago location Is expected to cave $400 to $500 freight per locomotive, and thi factor alone In time 1 slikely to pay a handsome dividend on the cash Invest ed in the present development. mended "to the Gary board of public works that block 117, Gary Land Co.'s ' first subdivision at Fourth avenue and Van Buren street, be purchased for a park site.
