FOG SHROUDS v SUN FOR 12 DAYS No Relief From Darkness Unless Wind Comes. This region is outfogging London and has a good start toward establishing a darkness record that can be equaled only in arctic regions. Except for two little dabs of sunshine less than half an hour the district has betn cloud-cast and fog-enfolded for eleven days and ten hours. The weather men say that the darkness will continue today. They do not attempt to predict how long the fog will remain. They point to the fact that since, the day before Thanksgiving the humidity has registered at from 90 to 98 per cent. The average
October humidity was 72 per cent. "There Is no actual relief In stght," said the forecaster. "We are hoping that a breeze will come along and blow the fog away. ' That is all wa need."

The readers attention is called to the substantial developement of the Gary Land Company's properties East of Broadway in the First Subdivision this year. During the summer months over a score or more of beautiful apartments and residence buildings have been erected on the East Side. This Company has improved the East side area and next spring it contemplates further work in making the East Side as an attractive residential section as any in the city. There are still a number of East side lots for sale facing this area in close proximity of Broadway. These lots will not last much longer. Next spring it may be impossible to secure one of these lots and prices may advance. If the reader is contemplating the erection of a residence in Gary, why not choose the East Side. Call at this office and obtain a list of vacant properties. Lots S350.QH 4 to S75QM and up
