REFRESHING AMERICANISM AT GARY.

Co-operation between Mayor Johnson and Secret Service Chief Bragdon resulted in the Jailing of the principal peace, nromoter rni . j

into aa alleged violation of United States laws) and the suppression of the

Pioposea pro-uerman peace meeting at Gary. True, vigorous words had to be employed, authority asserted, and squads of police assigned to a particu-

tar amy. em tne Kaiser assistants lost out. In other communities where there is indecision they might learn from

me nrni way in wnien tney handle things at Garv.

There is a disposition on the part of those who conduct several of tSe

state, municipal ana county governments to await for action from federal

authorities. They view the thing wrongly. As it is the whole structure of

reaerai government from the president down to the district attorneys and marshals Is just loaded up with work, and assistance given to it like that at Gary removes just so much burden from its shoulders and gives it more time to the prosecution of the war. Local governments should promptly squelch "peace," "ami-draft" and other treasonable manifestations without

waiting for the already overworked federal machinery to act.

City -ffleiais v hv were expicted to know when the jr.;,.! might be reached in the event of a crisis of any kind pleaded ignorance as to his whereabouts. Chicago was without a mayor, as none of the members f the city cabinet would take the responsibility of assuming the Job. His telephone at his summer home was reported out of order. It was reported he was on a fishing trip. Chief Schuettler mild he hadn't the slightest ida where he was. Inquiries at tbe Chicago Atretic association, the Hotel L Salle, ana other places frequented by the mayor failed to And Dim. .

CHICAGO'S DILEMMA.

The short-haired females, and the long-haired males who with Thomnsons efforts have been turning Chicago upside down during the na.t few day, found a haven of rest in the sixth German city in the world Vh.v were unceremoniously shunted from pillar to post last week until thei"r Plight became pitiable in the extreme. When they reached the Windv Citv however, they heaved a sigh of relief among other things and held" tneir convention, short as it was. The praiseworthy efforts of Governor LOwden were set at traught by Yellow Bill Thompson with the aid of that other gay Bill, commonly yclept Mason, the grand knight of the greasy vest In the meantime the Chicago press is vainly trying to explain awa'v the situation and making a laughable attempt of it. If the affair had happened in Hammond or Gary. oh. what a howl there would hare been from the Chicago newspapers. We would never have heard the last of it. And they don't know how to get rid of Yellow Bill: It is to titter.

CAMPAIGN FOR SCHOOL ATTENDANCE. Labor unions, parent-teacher associations, women's clubs, churches and other religious bodies, and many other organizations directlv concerned with education have been enlisted by the United States Bureau of Education in a campaign for the maintenance of school efficiency as a special patriotic duty this year. In his appeal Dr. Claxton, commissioner of education, points out the existing fear lest public schools shall suffer because of conditions growing out of the entrance of the United States into the war. He emphasizes the fact that as a measure of present defence and for the future welfare of the country, as well as for the individual benefit of the children, it is of the greatest importance that the schools be maintained in the highest standards of efficiency. Especially important, in the view of the commissioner, is prompt and regular attendance at school and proper employment during out-of-school hours. These, the commissioner believes, will be the children's surest protection against temptations to juvenile delinquencies. Labor unions are especially appealed to to urg the children now in

The experience boys and girls in gaining through being active. members in these clubs will mtke them sei reliant, resourceful and prosperous men and women. The boy or girl vl owns something will become a good citizen. Sheep clubs provide an additional opportunity to impress upon our eh' dren the value of growing things. When a boy owns a few sheep or lambs, h vi stay on the farm. He will not want to leave home and seek a job 1 the city. Mean Better Communities.

A boy can cut euotigh v.ods and grass with a scythe to feed his lamb through the winter. " Give Children Orphan Lambs. In sh?ep countries club members should be given the orphan lambs tha otherwise would be killed or starve to de:uh.' Last year, members of slu-?-oiubs in the state of Wnshinefon raised over 1.000 orphan lnmbs. One bo raised 42. mainly on milk and by-rmlucts until thpy were old enough to grosi Then he herded them on the sweet clover along the irrigation ditches. Ongirl is caring for 5S orphans. Sheep clubs will do much to awaken a nation-wide sentiment against law less dogs. When the boys and girls own some sheep, the dog must go, or h must remain at home where he belongs. The average boy or girl wants a per and there is no better pet than : lamb. Slany a successful sheep grower got his start by having a r"t lamb. Sheep clubs will do much to solve economical problems in ogricuiturr Millions of acres of nonproductive land can be profitably used'to pnsti::' sheep. Weeds, that now mean waste, can be turned into money and the lar.put in better shnpe for cultivation.

The Other Night CA man phoned to THE TIMES, and he wanted to know where he could buy five gallons of a certain kind of transmission oil advertised extensively in the magazines. We Could Not Tell Him! , C'Well," he said, "I guess I'll have to stick to : V' naming another brand of transmission oil,. "But I believe this oil' is good stuff, but where in hell can I get it?" The Point Is This: t CHere is a national commodity. It is sold everywhere hereabouts. It is advertised in all the magazines, and there are people who own cars who don't buy a magazine a month. Yet the people who have it for sale: the shopkeepers won't advertise it. CjJHow is the man who wants it to know where to purchase it? CJAnd it's the same way with a hundred other lines of magazine advertising. THE TIMES
