HONOR TO AMERICAN ARMS. The glorious showing made by our boys at ChateauThierry yesterday is the most thrilling news of the great war to America. Hitherto U. S. troops have fought in minor operations with the possible exception of Canticny. Yesterday, however, they fought brilliantly in a major operation. They were in the thick of battle and played their parts like men. They gave the boche a tas'e of what he is going to get later on, and the contemptible baby-killers and -woman-outragers will sneer no longer at. the American figfatins spirit and he American knowledge of warfare. Our boys yesterday felt the pressure of a great German drive and gave a magnificent account of themselves. Bad news in the way of losses to our troops may now be expected. We must steel ourselves against this bad news. It is known that many Lake county boys are in the Chateau-Thierry front and they will have suffered in casualties. Nothing else could be expected, however, and it will be up to Lake county parents to accept as bravely the decision as readily as they gave freely to their country. Vp from this time on must more than ever realize that we are in the great war.

INTEREST ON EIGHT AND THREE-FOURTHS BILLION AT FOUR PER CENT. "I say to you the time has come,'- declares Congressman Joseph W. Fordney of Miohicnn, "if we must raise more revenue to help carry on this war, then we should ra'se a greater portion of it from our import taxes." That is the Republican doctrine in peace as in w-ar. The soundness of it is attested by the figures submitted by Mr. Fordney showing that if the last Republican tariff law- were in force today we should hae received from import taxes during the last year 0.0-:v""0 more than came in under the Democratic tariff r.nv on the statute books. In making that sta'ement Mr. Fordney does not consider the addi'iona! advantage of protection to our own industries that such a law would have afforded. When the new r- venue bill is in process of framing the question of increased duties on imports is bound to come up, in the advocacy of which Mr. Fordney will take a leading part.

there is plenty of steam behind the hammer. Hammond's big war plant has secured a promise of a half million dollar appropriation and some of this money is already berinning to filter in the city. it is simply a case of a quarter of a loaf better than none. This amount will bring 200 more houses to Hammond. We believe If the cities of Gary and "East Chicago work as hard as Hammond has done they will at least get a half million dollars apiece, but so far there has been neither the concentrated effort nor the enthusiasm manifested in these cities as there has been in Ham mond. Not only should a general committee from the Calumet region be on the job In Washington to look after the region's interests, but each city should have a distinct committee looking after its interests. Nothing is obtained from the government these war times without a spirited campaign for it and this proposition is no ex coptlon. The argument has been advanced in Washing ton that Gary must depend on the fiats in Chicago tc house her workers. That is no argument at all; if it i why was it not used against Hammond which has se cured enough to put up 200 houses. Hammond is nearer Chicago than Gary or East Chicago. The fact is that it the Davenport-Moline district is able to get five million from the government for housing purposes, the Calumet district In Indiana, a far more important district, is entitled to three million dollars. Hammond. East Chicago and Gary should each have a million dollars. The letter appearing in these columns yesterday from Will nt Wood, this district's splendid representative in congress, bears out with emphasis the theory that constant and everlasting work must be done at Washington tc give thia district what it absolutely must have.

cheerfully consider the source.

THE war ha? taught her how to ileal in lareo numbers in such a handy fashion that the wiff can p;c k up, her pet eunuch cat and by simply i tinning her hand down his spine gravely announce that there are not near ly as many million fleas on him as there used, do be.

THERE is a great deal of complaint that. Hammond's alleys are not being kept clean. It would be absolutely impossible to keep the alley ciean in tke rear of somo folk's houses unless a man was employed for their houses alone.

IT is very hard to convince some people not a hundred miles away from here thar, they can get alone a great deal better by dodging trouble than by going around all the time looking for it.

COUNTRY NEWSPAPER EFFICIENCY. Whatever good may be said of the country weekly as a powerful institution and it is there i3 also much in the charge that a great number of papers lack system, efficiency, and a spirit of general push. Consider the appearance of some weeklies. A St. Louis advertising expert recently told a convention of Missouri editors that of 300 papers he wer over lee.

One of the most edngular phenomena in the news paper world is that after a prominent society woman has her picture in the paper once, her succeeding pictures get more and more V-necked.
