How would you like to have this laundress that never gets tired; that never balks at the biggest wash; that is always ready; that works without muss or annoyance at a cost of only a few cents a week? WITH AN ELECTRIC WASHING MACHINE the biggest family wash is ready to hang on the line, thoroughly washed and wrung by electricity, in just a few hours. The machine does all the work. Hot suds are forced through every fibre, taking out all the dirt without injury to the fabric. An Electric "Washing Machine saves the clothes and pays for itself within a year.

however, from the regular night school work. The public la asked to help along in this good work, which is pure
ly voluntary on the part of the teachers. In the mean time the night schools in East Chicago and Indiana Harbor
are coming along in fine shape. They
started out in good shape on Monday night with good attendance by ths foreigners, although as much could not be said of the other class of the population. For the high school work it was found that there were not enough applicants for membership to warrant the establishment of classes in these advanced branches, the same being true of the industrial work, but it is early as yet and it is expected that -whon
more get to know of the advantages offered in this line, they will come forward to enroll in the classes. The domestic science class has quite a number of applicants, ' it being organlzed on Monday. It will be conducted at the McKlnley building. Thus far there have registered for night school work, 100 pupils, but this number will run up to between three and four hundred of the foreigners alone, before the schools have been in operation a month.

spreader being automatic. The machine has an arm extension that carries the material in any direction desired. Chicago avenue when completed will be as good an improvement as is to be found anywhere in or around Chicago. The foundation is of asphalt concrete which will be placed between the tracks and cover the roadway, and on top of that will be laid the best brick the market affords. The Purington brick, which is manufactured at Galesburg, Ohio, is the quality that will be used. Each brick weighs twelve pounds, the dimensions being 3 inches by four by ten. Twenty-two cars of (material a day are being received and the work is being rushed night and day so that the concrete, as much of it as possible at least, will be all in before the frost.
The biggest concrete mixer ever introduced in this section has been brought to East Chicago by F. G. Proudfoot. the contractor who is doing the paving in Chicago avenue. The mammoth machine was received Saturday and is now at work over near the Junction. It is a Koehrlng machine and it cost $3,500. It is provided with a hot blast attachment for mixing hot asphalt and its capacity is twenty-
two cubic feet every fifty seconds, the The contractors expect to work at a
clip of a block and a half a day on one side of the road, taking in the eastbound track of the South Shore and the Red line track. The material comes in over the Indiana Harbor belt and is switched thence onto the South Shore, whence it Is directly distributed where needed. The sand and gravel being used is from Ginger Hill, Ind. As soon as the roadway is ready for the brick this will be hauled in at the rate of fifteen cars a day. It is expected that within twelve days the concrete on the south side of the street will be all laid as far as Magoun ave nue.
