THE LITTLE KUKAL KOUTE BOX. 3et"fcty U. S. boy? were drowned Rt sea when a U. S. army transport was torpedoed by the Huns this week. Anions the enlisted dead is the following name: HUNTER. J. W seaman, second class: next of kin, Isaac Hunt, father, Mountain Grove, Mo., R. R. No. 2, box 44, The point of this screed is th little ' RURAL ROUTE NO. Z." That may, though we hope no:, come to be too regular a casualty report in this war. Here is a farmer boy who has given bia life for his country and yet tn this county there are hundreds upon hundreds of farmers who refuse to buy Liberty Bonds so that this war may be ended and so that there will be no more dispatches from the -war and navy departments telling us that the Germans have torpedoed our troop ships. There are others who ought to WAKE UP and buy Liberty Bonds. What will stimulate you to action, men, women and children, if this won't?

WHAT A LOUT IT, MR. FA KM EH W fnd in every city in Lake County a feeling of bitterness against the faiii;.-r ;;rul there is no gainsaying the fact that the farmer does not realize how bitter "he feeling h; ard how it is Koing to hurt him when th war is over. On,' of the hvest. bankers in Chicago prilled the farmer yesterday in a newspaper as foiinu y : ' Th- farther h.'s been pampered by politicians until be seems to Teet he is in a ; referred class, and, as 1 paid, be doesn't want to fcuy L:: erty bonds, he d.ifsr.'t want to fight and he avoids his income tax." Tb. only way the farmer can refae them !s to prove by his action that V.ry ;! no; true. Ot ail classes the farmer is todr-y in the preferred el-iss of CHK-.en-. Of !: not showing tofr loyalty to Ann idea, in this great war the fartifi- H !, Id by the public as beitirr. next to the real pro-German, the least lacking in loyalty. Her and there are exceptions, but they are few. It is high time the farm.-r dernonstrr.'ed that his veins do not flow with any but loyal bl od. but affairs have gone so far he will hp -c- to tleincnst ra'e it. Instead t f rien'.andinc oemxion he will have to fight. Instead of hoarding liis money h wn lim- to buy Liberty bonds. Instead of holding back his produce for top notch prices he will have to show a willingness to sell at pi it e;5 that are reasonabb . I"nks he does these things the farmer is going to continue in the present unpleasant view the public holds him.

SOrE OF TTIE FIXE THINGS ABOUT GARY There has been eo much said ard untruthfully about Gary that it Is well to point out some of its good things. Gary has suffered immensely, has received national notoriety due to the publicity given to its fake reformers, who manipulate for political purpose. If cleanliness and sanitation is next to Godliness then Gary can show these things: One hundred and twenty-five miles of paved streets, miles of concreted rlleys, sanitary street drinking fountains, pure water, several trunk, and local aewer systems, 150 miles of cement sidewalk. City health laboratory with chemist and bacteriologist to examine food and milk supplies. City, eanitary, health, food and clean-up inspectors. Daily examinations of food and milk supplies. A medical staff of two surgeons and physicians employed by the schools to glTe their sole attention to pupils. Parks and playgrounds, gymnasia and swimming tanks in th schoolhouses, as well as bathing facilities. Echoolhouse shower baths open to any man, women or child in the neighborhood. Efficient street repair and street cleaning departments. Whit wings in buitness streets. Municipal garbage collection system, municipal crematory, and nforv.tnent of law requiring closed metallic garbage cans. Health and sanitation lectures to the school children Then Gary also has some of these redeeming features. Upwards of 41 churches, parochial schools, religious training schools operated by the Protestants, Catholics and Je t Gary is the only city that has solved the problem of "bible teaching" to school children; neighborhood seUlerjent houses maintained by Catholics and Protestant?, social centers at Jewish t diSces. School honses and public library open to public for meetings; Y. II. C. A. with s large branch. And yet Pharisees say that Mayor Johnson preside? over a modern Babylon. Bince Mr. Johnson has been mayor Gary has become a model in civic -an-tfatlon and municipal cleanliness; an example in settlement work, and the tcher of all America in imparting moral and religious instruction to its school children on a scale that ha3 won the approval of all denominations. It Is one of the proudest memories in Mayor Johnson's administration that earin? Ha term Gary gave Its school system to New York and other cities; that the Gary religious instruction plan has been made the subject of several boolcs as well as the visit of American and overseas divines and educators; that the Gary school exhibit won the prize at the Panama-Pacific exposition, ?.nd that the efficiency and sanitation nu .hods of the municipality are deemed to interesting that next spring the Canadian and United States mayors belonging to the American League of Municipalities are going to hold their convent ion in Gary. Mayor Johnson and his aides are administering a government that functions for the people. From the schools, that are held should be cpen not only for the nse of children but for men and women as well, to the careful watch maintained oTer the city's health and its food to the motorii-d Are protection and all the san'tary precautiona Gary stands out pre-eminent for doing so much.

A BIG SIEGE In the United states today a vast campaign is being carried on because of this great war. In June a campaign was made for selling Liberty Loan Bonds which was to buy clothing, food, guns, ammunition. et, for the soldiers that vere ue:nc trained and others thr-t were- being recruited and trained to help our ailies across 'he water?. TIk- campaii-n was a success, but since then our armies have been pfnt across h waters and the money has almost been used, and new we are m th second campaign. The money is given to the Government as a loan bearing 4;. interest paid semi-annually beginning six months after the bond is paid for, and not as a ta whre you pay on something you need every day and wh"ii consumed if gone. A vast army has an especial interest in this campaign because President Wilson has er.lis'e.i the aid of about ;S'".fi0 Roy Scouts, who in the first campaign sold more than 'oe.noo worth of bonds by personal solicitation at homes. The same method will be used next week and we expect every person solicited to help the boys.

"Built Like a Watch" it is, to its minutest part A perfect product of the Master Builders' art. Compared with other cars of every stvle and mode. The Elgin Six stands out distinct, "the Beauty of the Road.1 But neither power, speed, strenth nor endurance was sacrificed to beauty and stylo in the making of the Elgin Six. And while the new Elgin Six is a big, powerful car, it is an economical car to operate. The Elgin Six has repeatedly demonstrated on long tours and in reliability and economy tests during the past year that it will average from twenty to twenty-five miles to the gallon of gasoline, and better than two hundred miles to the quart of lubricating oil, Avhile its low weight results in keeping tire wear down to a minimum. The new Elgin Six is ths latest and finest product of veteran Engineers and Master Car Builders, whose leadership and reputation have been established by their ability to build a motor ear embodying, in the highest degree, the four dominant features of the Elgin Six Distinction Endurance Economy Comfort The special construction of the Elgin velvet-acting clutch enables the driver to start the Elgin Six on high gear and does away with the necessity of gear si iftlng under ordinary conditions a wonderful improvement that makes it safe and easy for a womnn to drive a motor ear. Elgin Engineers have perfected an improved rear spring suspension, found only in the Elgin Six, which reduces shock and vibration on rough roads to a point not surpassed in ary car at any price, and sets a new standard of motoring ease and comfort at high speeds. The fashionable center cowl, combined with the true yacht line desgin and "Y"-type radiator, give the Elgin Six a distinction that sets it apart from common cars. This double cowl and 'Y'-type radiator are found in no other car selling for less than $1400, Surely, it is worth your while to investigate the Elgin. Phone 328d for Demonstration.
