GOOD eve-n, kind friends. Here's the etate of Indiana wanting us to eat carp to help save the war. Well, anything eo as not to eat garlic. We'll die first.

NOW if we can only get the eame sort of pep into the Liberty Loan campaign as we are getting into th city campaign this town will do well.

SUPPORT the government, the federal government, the state government, the city government. To help win the war you can't uphold one part of the government and kick the other part.

v ONE good thing about this Hoover food administration folks, is that a chap is apt to get hot corn cakes for brkfast as often as he wants 'em.

MAYOR Johnson has horns. He is a Mephisto in disguise. The city has gone to the dogs. The mayor and his campaign managers are ready to drive away all the steel mills. Vice lurks everywhere. No one is decent. Workmen ugh! They get their hands and face dirtf whilo ut work. The Tribune says that those supporting Mayor Johnson are anarchists and I. W. W.'s. The Post says that all men and women who are with the mayor artindecent. It is a terrible world, this Gary. Yon angel is William Hodges. He is ready to redeem the citv, to sacrifice himself for the 54,000 per year that the mayoralty pays. It is a splendid thing to do but is Gary so wicked? Does vice lurk everywhere? Is the mayor a fiend in human form outside of the political agents of big business whose orders he refuses to take? Whv Gary Is the finest little city in the United States! Its schools are the marvel of the worfd. It supports forty churches, ten of which are Roman Catholic and two are Jewish. It is the only large city of its size with a motorized fire department. Its police are a valuable aid to the federal government. The people use Gary schools and school playgrounds every day in the week. Gary has a fine library, Y. M. C. A., park system. Gary workmen of course, they get their faoe and hands dirty but God bless them! They gave a million to the first Liberty Loan. flOO.OOO to the Red Cross. They are all Americans but the purity exponents, their newspapers, says that Mayor Johnson is wicked, the whole south side peopled with bad people, and workmen but why go on? You and I know the truth.

THE Gary Tribune persists in sniping Dr. Frank W. Smith, the independenent party's chairman. It must be that Fifth avenue and "Broadway has lifted the censorship barring the chairman's name from the paper. Grandma Carr of the Tribune insists that Dr. Smith tried to sell out his associates a few years ago in order to get the congressional nomination. Will the Tflbune explain h ow hard Capt. Norton worked to have Dr. Smith take the congressional chairmanship at a time when the Tribune was singing the praises of John B. Peterpon and telling of his wonderful work in congress at the time when that body was asked to approve the act of the steel company in changing the bed of the Grand Calumet river without the approval of the federal government? Will the Tribune also tell about the action of the editor in quitting the republican party with Capt. Norton and Mayoralty Candidate Hodsres and how the Tribune viciously denounced Congressman Wood? Will the Tribune tell about the time Grandma Carr returned to the republican party and then went to Dr. Smith and to Congressman Wood, before and after the latter's nomination, and humbly put in a bid for the postmastership of Garv should the republicans win?

IN the meantime spectators must he interested as the Knapp-Snvder-Curtis ticket plays a game of hide-and -go-seek with the Norton-Hodges-Greenwald-Carr-Bretsch headquarters Both are vociferously denying that the "vice interests'' have "flipped the ball to them." while at the same time each is insistently charging that it has been flipped to the other.
