Henry Hanson, who had charge of the business built up a thriving trade for the local concern. Ability to get all the milk they need nearer home has induced the company to abandon the practice of making the rounds of the country.

The proceeds go toward the school building funds, and hundreds of dollars will be realised through the efforts of the congregation. Thanksgiving day was spent in the old fashioned way by Crown Pointers, many family dinner parties being given. For hundreds its was the annual home-coming day. and many familiar faces were seen on the streets. The annual Thanksgiving day football game was conspicuous by its absence this year and fss missed by the football fans. In the evening the Thanksgiving dance at Central Music hail drew a large crowd, and helped put a touch of merriment iu an otherwise quiet day.

His subject was the "Forest rVimcval." Earlier In the day Mr. Mills urged adequate appropriations by congress for the work of the new national park service. "There is a nation-wide campaign on." he said, "to impress congress with t-he necessity of prompt action. I ihall travel the country from New Tork to the middle west in tho interest of this work. A bust of John Muir is to b unveiled next Thursday at Madison, and I want to be, there. I shall also be at the national park conference in Washington January 2 to 8. I hop; Chicago sends a strong delegation to this conference to speak for the Dunes National park project. And the same delegation should manage to be heard by congress. This dunes project is fine and should go through. I've been in the dunes and they are both scenic n4 of great scientific intyest. It's a . -i-derful thing that the fourth city of i ie world should have a chance for a national park In a wilderness almost at its doors. "The feeling in Washington is that this conference will result In favorable legislation by congress at the coming session in at least four national park projects Grand Canon, Greater Sequoia, Greater Rocky Mountain and Mount McKlnley."

FRIENDS REGRET DEPARTURE OF

J. M. Stafford, who recently resigned from the superlntendency of the Cudahy Packing company ptant at East Chicago, left yesterday for Omaha, where ho takes a position as assistant superintendent of a largo plant operated by the same company at that point. Mr. Stafford la succeeded in the tupeUntendency of the local plant by Daniel Murphy, who has been associated in the work there for a number of years. The new position to which our former fellow townsman has been promoted offers a larger field and is a much better situation financially than the one he was holding here. During tho last six years, Mr. Stafford has been not only an efficient superintendent, but has been a resident citizen of Indiana Harbor and has taken an active interest in everything pertaining to the welfare of the city. He was elected director of the Chamber of Cofnmerce at the time of Us organization in September. 1915, and was re-elected as director in the reorganlaztion that took place in September of this year. As director of the chamber he was appointed to the head of the industrial department with the assistance of J. E.

TrUSS' BUREAU AT STATE CAPITAL. INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Dec. .2. Another meeting of the Indiana "Dry" Federation, which was organized here a few days ago, is set for this afternoon at the Claypool hotel, and it is understood that an effort will be made to perfect' the organization and to asertain just what organizations wilt affiliate with the federation. The purpose of the Indiana Dry Federation is to bring about the enactment of a state-wide .prohibition law in Indiana at the coming session of the legislature. Eut already there has appeared a division of sentiment as to the methods to be followed to bring about this new law. It is still a question whether the Anti-Saloon league will join the federation or have anything to do with it. The Anti-Saloon league has methods of its own and it has its own idea as to how the fight for a "dry" state should be carried on.' and those ideas do not match those of some of the leaders in the Indiana Dry Federation.' The result is that there is some feeling already aroused that may have its effect on the general result. It was said to be the hope that the meeting this afternoon could iron out all of these differences and bring all of the anti-liquor forces of the state into one federated body, the sole purpose of which would be state-wide prohibition. It was understood that at this meeting the compact organization would ba formed and the executive committee or "steering" committee would be appointed to handle the subject before the legislature. Announcement has also been made that the Citizens' League of Indiana will hold another meeting in this city on Friday. December 8. Or. rather it for Demonstration.

TRE STSFFORDS

O'Nell. Not only will Mr. Stafford bo missed from the business and financial life of the city, but also .rom the social life as well, in which both he and Mrs. Stafford were exceptional favorites. Prior to their departure the employes of the Cudahy plant tendered a reception to Mr., and Mrs. Stafford. It was held at the Country club at Hammond the first of this week. At that time, in token of their esteem his friends presented him with a gold watch and chain and presented Mrs. Stafford with a cameo brooch. There were fifty that sat down to a table filled with a sumptuous I repast, after which a program of enj tertainment was carried out in which the following participated: Miss Eveltn Murphy. Miss Elizabeth Rack, H. C. Riewe and Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Murphy. II. C. Riewe acted as toastmaster for the evening, while short talks were made by Dr. G. W. Miller, T. F. Murphy and others. Altogether it was an occasion long to be remembered, not only by Mr. and Mrs. Stafford but by the assembled friends as welt. will be a meeting of the executive committeo which was appointed at the meeting held here Wednesday. This committee is compose! of W. E. Stone, president of Purdue uni'ersity; Theodore F. Thiemo of Fort Wayne. Judge W. H. Eichhorn of Bluffton, Fred I. King of Wabash. F. W. Keller, mayor of South Bend: Winfield Miller and Alvah Rucker of Indianapolis, Samuel M. Foster of Fort Wayne, A. J. Veneman of Evansvillc, James H. McGill of Valparaiso and Dr. J. A. Woodburn of Indiana university. . The new announcement of policy for the Citizens' League states that its primary purpose is to secure a new constitution for the state cf Indiana. The l ague hopes to bring this about through the holding of a non-partisan constitutional convention, and it hopes to induce the coming legislature to call such a convention. The league says it will work for the election of delegates to a constitutional convention who will be strlcly nonpartisan. It is even said that the league is opposed to having delegates i elected on a party ticket. Thus, the members say, there probably would be a more non-partisan selection of dele gates than if they were elected on party tickets. The members say the league is not particularly interested in any certain proposition that might come be fore a constitutional convention, but that it. will work for a convention first of all. where all of the reforms that are in the minds of the people may be taken up and threshed out. It Is under stood that an active and brisk campaign will be started at once to get the sub ject of a constitutional convention firm ly fixed in the minds of the members of the legislature. While on the subject of reforms and reformers, it might not be out of place to mention the fact that the "dry Democratic organization which was formed here a 'short time ago Is busy, extending its organization throughout the state. James If. McGill of Valparaiso, chairman of the executive committee which has the work In charge. said a day or two ago tjiat .members of tho committee were doing a lot of work and that within a short time the organization will be ready to hold a mass meeting In this city, which will probably be addressed by W. J. Bryan A situation has arisen in Indian apolis that Is causing the saloon forces considerable worry. Temperance people filed a blanket remonstrance against saloons in the First ward and another

against saloons In the Fourth ward. The liquor people started to fight the First ward case, but decided yesterday to quit before the county commissioners and accept defeat there, and then appeal to the courts. Accordingly the com missioners upheld the remonstrance and twenty-two saloons must go out of business In the First ward within thirty days. The Fourth warad case will be heard next, and the temperance people believe they will be able to put the forty saloons In that ward out of business. And now they are preparing a remonstrance against saloons In the Sixth ward, which includes the downtown district. This would put out more than one hundred saloons if successful. The saloon people and hotel keepers held a secret meeting Wednesday to make plans for fighting the Sixth ward remonstrance. It Is doubtful If the Sixth ward remonstrance can be made a success.
