JLR

From Chas. Schofield. Editor Times: The Hart Courier-Tribune .has a letter from Chas S-oMeld and I l!v he has a good many friends tn Hammond that would like to read It. as he has spent all his l-.fe in Hammond, except the la.-t three years of his life. MRS. O. M SCOFIELD. Hart. Mich... R F. D 1. The letter follows: Just a few lines to let your reader know how the h-ys in " kack" are getlr.gr alcng down In this neck ef the woods. This camp '. training coast artillery or!;- It i. on of fne oidot forts In tr. country, heir.c hunt by the Frenr'.i early in the eighteenth century and while It is for th iiinjt par! a training camp at present, it !s also well equipped for actual warfare. While the. fort was bui'.t before the ten. twelve and fourteen Inch guns were thought of it wovr. 1 be ahi to stand quite a siege as Its armament did not stop with the howitzers of ions? ago, hut is of the most improved type. While I can not give the number or size of the runs, suffice It to say that no fear was felt for the part we would play In the recent sub scare. Tn fact instead of Increasing the strength here several boat left here at the first alarm for -he hunt of the kaiser's rets and if any of the subs had gotten Into N'arragan.ett Bay they would have gotten a warm reception. The older men In service here are being sent across and the fresh troops are put. on the guns here to be replaced 1'er by mr" rookies and then "over there-'' for us. The coast artillery Is not as some think, a coast defense alone, but !s used In th field on larcer than a:x inch runs and are dmtr eod work in France at tthe present time. It takes longer to train men for this hran'-h of the jcr'i'- than anv ether branch, except aviation, radio, end other special duty men. as we pre riven a thorough infantrv drilling before we are put on the batteries. We have a fin -place here on Narrapansett Bay right next door to Newport's 'To:- Hundred." We sometime. take a hike out into the country and it rem'nds one of an English novo; passing all the oountry homes of the multi-millionaires with their fine grounds and each with e. gate-keepers l.-.rtsre at the entrance, """e are surrounded by water except a narrow ?: of lind to the. south. Have pler.ty to eat. god comfortable sl?ep!r."r quarters, fine salt water for bathing and good entertainment at the Y. M. C. A. And by the way. no one who has spent a week or more in one of t"ril 5am' training ramps will eve'- know what a grand work, the y. ?I C.

VOICE OF RE O P L E

Street Car Service.

Eu t'-r Times: j I have sent the following letter to Mayor Pan Frown: j To the Honaroble Daniel Erown. !

Mayor of the City of Hammond, Dear Sir: Is there no relief for the working classes of Hammond to be packed tn street cars like sardines in a box. not only while goin?r to and from work, but during all hours of the day. Terhaps when your term of effi-e expires, you will want the voters of Hammond to do you a good turn again, but if you cannot keep your pre-election promise to k!v us better street car service, you certainly will be put into the discard. Think 1' over and sto after the treet car corporation. They certainly are makingr enough money to put on "ir. extra cars and gT've us at least a little comfort, even if they do put on cars that ought to go to the Junk pile. Vow Mr. Mayor sret up and do something for the suffering working classes, and get the good wishes and support of your past supporters and their friends who travel daily between East

' Hammond. East Chicago and Indiana

Harbor. Yours eery truly. One cf the Strap Hangers.
