(Special to The Times.) (By a Staff Correspondent.) DETROIT, ST.. Hammond. Dec. 19. John D. Smalley. mayor of Hammond, moved into his new residence out here yesterday. This la a nice neighborhood inhabited chiefly by the W's whom among which are the Wincklers. the Whinerys, the Wilkles. the Wllhelnis, the Wolfes. the Wises, the Wilcoxes. and the Witters. This Is one of the hea'.thlest sections of . the city because of the exhilarating walk to the business district. Timber wolves are reported extinct In this territory, althought it is related that farther north in the Warren street district, only recently, a wild fox was captured. The Smalleys came from one of Hammond's older settlements on Rimbach avenue, which is well known for the long time that the Hansen: resided there. Miss Beatrice Hansen, social writer for The Times, and sister of Mrs. Smalley, Is included in the removal. She said she came down with the moving van that brought the bric-a-brac, But this Jape is due solely because of the contagious juxtaposition of her desk to Jokers and jesters.

The new Smalley residence Is loeate"d on the north side of Detroit street. 200 feet east of Hohman road. It is a modern seven-room brick and kellaatone building with an attractive sunparlor and was built by Contractor John F. Wilhelm. who also lives In this section of the country. The folks out there are reported to be quite clubby. There are numerous republicans around here, but as the newcomers are good church members. It will not be hard for them to get acquainted. In an Interview with your correspondent. Mayor Smalley said he will not let the distance Interfere with his getting to the city hall every day. and If necessary he will use a walking stick. As for Mrs. Smalley. ehe will rely on Tbi Times to keep her In touch with the doings In the city. "We hare always wanted to go south," said Mayor Smalley yesterday, as he reached in a barrel to haul out his ash tray, and instead stuck his hand Into fifty centa T.orth of butter, "and here we are." There was a nice breezy air out here yesterday.

PROLBEi LOOMING LARGE

What is the biggest thing Hammond can start to do now; the thing that will have the most far reaching effect as the city grows from generation to generation? Members of the Committee of Ten, appointed by A. M. Turner as a result of an Jnsplrlng meeting at the Hammond Country club last Thursday, met in the Chamber of Commerce, Monday night with Prof. P. G. Holden of the educational extension work of the International Harvester Company, and asked of each other the above question. There was manifest the 6ame earnestness and sincerity that characterized the earlier meetings, but there was also a soberness which reflected the bigness of the problem, the solution of which would be epoch making In community, life. As the gigantic task was discussed fram various angles, it became apparent early In the evening that the movement could not be defined nor a goal set up until the entire city has been heard from. And this will be the next step. The city of Hammond, through Its various organizations, parents' clubs. churches, lodges and through a question blank that is to go into every home, will give a consensus of opinion as to what Is the paramount question. The plan for procedure is to be discussed more In detail at the weekly luncheon of the members' council of the chamber next Thursday and another big turnout of Interested men of affairs is expected. Professor Holden at the meeting last night again urged upon the business and professional men present, not to start unless thef fel determined and confident they could finish. In his lntermitten talks he again held before his audience the vision, which if materialized, would put Hammond in a class by itself for efficiency, the keynote of the whole movement. Prof. Holden framed his vision in the following words: Hammond cares for all her children. Tt has a plan. Trains for efficiency. Helps find places of greatest usefulness. Has room and work enough for all her people. Sentiment, not law, will determine Hammond's future. Ownership and partnership means good citizenship. Prof. Holden urged a concrete plan for city building to mark the city's future development! as one of the features of the movement. Mr. Turner presided as chairman of the meeting in the round table discussion. Those present with Prof. Holden were M. Carroll and Edgar W. Cooley of the International Harvester Company's educational extension department: C. M. McDanleU Attorney Jesse
