East Chicago bank building. Clint Draper, of the Miller and Draper, New York city, the men who are staging and handling the affair, was present and took charge of the proceedings. There were sixty singers and black face artists that responded to the call. The management considered that this was a splendid showing and that it range one of the Dest rninstrei snows ever held in this section of the f-tatei All but two of the cast of sixteen were tentatively selected and will be given a try-out within the next few days. A select list of thirty-five ballad singers was also agreed upon. There will not be a stale thing in the whole performance. The songs are just off the press in Chicago and many of them are expected to be the great hits of the month.

"The ministers of Lake county's big municipalities who are agitating the question of saloon closing on Sunday should either do a good job of it or let it alone." Permit me on behalf of the ministers and churches to say we are acting from the standpoint of our faith and of the new thought that the whole world is getting, that the saloon is bad any day and especially so on rest days when we are not employed: the temptation is stronger to lounge and drink. We can't wait until other cities in Illinois enforce their laws before enforcing ours. There V 4

is no local advantage to be gained by a wet section of this territory over a dry section. The dry section will be more orderly, consume less rum and its citizens have more money on Monday than in the wet portions. It is now proven that the presence of the saloon is a continued suggestion to the drinker and Increases the business 85 per cent above normal. In other words when a town or state Is dry and remains dry for a period of years drinking fftlls off from 22J gallons per capita to 2i gallons. We think if the people drank less It would be better for them and all legitimate business. Yours truly, REV. F. P. BLAKEMORE, DYER Dance at Spring Hill Grove, Wednesday, Jan. 10th.

"I em a Home Missionary, was weak and run-down after a hard spell of LaGrippe. I had headaches, indigestion and pains in my chest, and was tired all the time. A friend asked me to try Vinol and the result is I am free from those troubles and I feel well and strong and able to fro to work Jigain." Mrs. Hattie Johnson. Towanda. Pa.
