Importance is attached to the visit In Hammond today of O. E. Potter, division enginer of the New York, Chicago and St. Louis railway. Though he declined to make any positive statement to the press concerning the construction of a paved street from Sibley to State street, to curve with the right of .way on the easterly side, it Js under

and P. J.- Lyons, city engineer. He

,WHY ARE YOU SO TIRED? The Weather Is Not To Blame for That "Dragged Out" Feeling. "This weather simply takes the life right out of me. I can Kardly drag one foot after the other," said a run-down, (ired-out woman, the other day. We want to say to every such person In this vicinity. Don't blame the weather, it's your condition. You need a strengthening tonic and the very best we know is Vinol which is a combination of the two most worldfamed tonics, namely, the medicinal.
curative elements of cod liver oil and
tonic iron, for the blood.
A case has just come to our atten
tion from Siilford, Mich. '. "Mrs. Julia Barber says: "I was run-nown and hardly able to drag about; my appetite was pQor and I was not able to work. My druggist asked me to try Vinol. The first bottle helped me and after taking the second bottle I was able to work and felt well and strong. Vinol Is the best medicine I bave ever taken." Trya bottle of Vinol with the understanding that your money will be returned if It does - not hel, you. L. Harry Wels, Druggist, Hammond, Ind. P. S.

More Sneak Thieves. Bold sneak thieves gained entrance to Hendershot's grocery store at 171 Indiana avenue early this morning and although the store was ransacked from end to end, their efforts were rewarded with $1.50 In change, which they rourwl in drawer. Seemingly iiot fearing detection, the thieves helped themselves to lunch and in thfcir efforts to find something of value, papers were thrown all over the floor from one end of the store to the other. Entrance was gained by removing a broken glass out of the front window near tho door. The robbery was discovered early this morning but no trace of the thieves could be found.
To preserve German customs and
Ideals as they are expressed in the language and in the arts, and with the
firm conviction that these German characteristics transplanted from the Fatherland to thye United States will
make better citizens here, several hund
red German Americans of Hammond
gathered together yesterday afteroon
to form's, permanent organization with a view to making It part of a national movement, known as the German-
American National union.
The meeting was held yesterday af
ternoon at the Moose haH, and in the audience was a goodly sprinkling of ladies, who are as much Interested in
the movement as are the men. Last fall a number of prominent Hammond Germans ! went to Michigan City where the state cenventlon of German societies t-was being held, and succeeded In getting the next state convention to come lb Hammond. The meeting yestterday , was preparatory to joining the atate federation In anticipation of the convention next fall. The inclement weather yesterday afternoon undoubtedly kept away scores of persons who had intended to attend. Yet there were 300 present all told, and
the bad weather could put no damper
on the enthusiasm that was manifested
Germans, native of Germany and the United States were present, irrespective of creed or political affiliations, and
good program was carried out.
The Saegerbund Fiella which attend
ed in a body, sang three numbers with
encores, and an orchestra added to the entertainment program. Mrs. George
Hannauer, who sang for the Germans of
; Hammond on former occasions, endear
ed herself again to them with her s'weet voice and her German solo selections.
The opening address was made by F.
C. Miller, who spoke briefly of the aims
and objects of the meeting. He was followed with an address of welcome by Mayor Smalley, who spoke In his best vein with words of encouragement for the German movement. After a short address by Walter Fischer of Indianapolis, Joseph Keller of Indianapolis, president of the state federation, delivered the principal address of the occasion.
An effort has been made to have
every German organization In the city join in a body, and in response repre
sentatives were present from the Steh-
gerbund. Eintracht lodge of the
Knights and Ledies of Honor, the
Plattdeutsche Gilde, the Germania
club, and the Moltke club.
Delegates from these organizations
and visiting state officers including Vice Presidents J. D. Marowske of
South Bend, and Henry Schall of Mich
igan City, met at Nehl's place after the
meeting for a dinner and further or
ganization. Another meeting of these
delegates will be held on Friday even Ing of this week.
-Michigan City, a strong German center, sent over a delegation of fifteen to
the meeting. State President Keller is
in Chicago today In conference with bther presidents 6f northwestern states
to devise ways and means to promote
the teaching of German In the schools.

the damage which has been done owing
