Out In Eaat Hammond they keep their alleys clean, the Black, Red and White

Pin map of Hammond will show. In Homewood those same passageways are made unbeautlful by ash heaps and waste paper, while down town many of them are hidlous, filthy and disease breeding.

The fact that East Hammond leads

the town in clean alleys may be hard

to digest. Thirty women of the Ham

mond Woman's club, members of the

civic department, are responsible for

this Information which they Intend to convey to the public by means of a map of Hammond on which varl-eolor. ed pins will indicate the extent of san

Railroad Are Offender. Therefore It must be reliable, though

jarring. Mrs. E. S- Cooper, 332 Michi

gan avenue, head of the pin map committee, and Mrs. Carrie Herndon, chairman of the civic committee, admit It cheerfully. "It isn't at all remarkable," said Hrs. Cooper. "Tou see In East Hammond they have a higher

regard for the alleys than elsewhere.

They empty garbage and ashes in their

back yards and as this Is not a back

yard map we do not indicate that on

the map. However East Hammond manages to keep Itself cleaner than one or two other points In the downtown district." Will Be Shown Xext Week. The map la being held up until the first of next week when It will be placed on exhibition In the First National bajnk. The geographers are rather perplexed at present as they haven't a shade of pin black enough to indicate the Insanitary condition of the first alley north of state street, running from Hohman to Muenich court. The Lafayette school yard is another place, nearly as offensive, in truth "one of the ugliest spots In town." "The worst offenders against the city beautiful Idea are the railroads," said. Mrs. Cooper. The Woman's club finds fault with the city In that it- does not supply a sufficient force of men to dispose of garbage. Thereare only seven carts in service It Is said by some. The property owner and tenat does not escape critlclzm on the map by any means. It Is their fault that alleys are unlovely and not sweet smelling in that they do not provide and maintain the right sort of recepticles.

PRIESTS FORSEE

END OF TANGO

Recent advices from Rome purport

ing to announce the disapproving at

titude of the Vatican In regard to the tango found expressions of sympathy

among the local Catholic clergy yesterday. One of the Chicago priests to denounce the dance was Rev. P. 3.

O'Callaghan of St. Mary's church. He

characterized It as an Immodest act

disguised In graceful movements." H

predicted that public Opinion would

Boon banish It from the respectable

dancing parlors and homes and "drive

it into the dens from which It sprang

"I have no authority to speak for

the church nor for anybody except my

self," said Father O'Callaghan. "But

J bishops and priests to whom I have

spoken agree with me In condemning

the dance.

"in my mma the tango is not so much of a dance as an Indecent act

disguised in dancing movements, believe the least offensive form of tan go Is the most dangerous. Just as im

moral literature that Is most literary

is more likely to hafm the Innocent

than vulgar or obscene writings," he

concluded.

Father O'Callaghan praised the action of the Knights of Columbus in

prohibiting the tango at a recent

dance.

bad burglar made an attempt to enter

the home of Anton Tapper on Ann

street and had t Mrs. Tapper awak

As the cold weather months approach and much of the outdoor construction work Is being completed many laborers are being laid off and as a result the Indiana employment bureau is flooded with Its annual deluge of applications for work.
