then ths polish division has been in continuous service in several sectors. The Lorraine ceremony was a littli.g climax to a hard summer's Ashling. It began with a breakfast on Place Stanislas. Nancy, at which President Polncaire of Franco, numerous French notables, and a number of French officers were present. The door of the breakfast room opened upon a spot on the Place in front of the huge bronze statue of Stanislas,

last king of Poland and duke of Lorraine, renowned for his beneilces and cherished in memory by Polos and Lorrainers alike. One hand points north, and under this the group of Poles and Frenchmen stopped. They say it was not part of the program, and that both the Frenchmen and the Polis lighting against a common tyrant had to stop impulse dictated It and the President of France made a short talk to those who grouped around, civi'ians having joined the party. The prefect of Nancy spoke, and the general of the Polish division, and they shook hands all around. Then some noticed some American officers, bystanders, who had sllped into the rrowd, and by common Impulse and enthusiasm the Yankees were pulled into the ceremony, which consisted of wildly shaking hands with everyone. Being short on French words to express themselves, and this part of the ceremony was in French, the Americans followed a happy hunch to shout. "Vive la Polonge." The words were magic and it was a mighty "Vive la Pologne" that rang out from that beautiful Stanislas square in Nancy. The official ceremony was on a hillside east and south of Nancy. Here 3 natty regiments of infantry, with clean blue uniforms, shining bayonets and spotless equipment were drawn up at attention on 3 sides of an altar built out in the open. On the fourth side were the machinegun companies and a group of mounted soldiers. In the center around the altar were some Polish priests, and a group of offi cials and officers who conducted the ceremony. Overhead a group of French aviators swooped and dived, grazing less than 10 feet from the head of soldiers. As the I'nited Press car pulled away from the ceremony, a Polish private shouted." 'Hullo. Americans, giK'ss this world series about over home run for us. Hooray!" LMEFOST. WAS I DANDY It was a real, old time, old fashioned republican love feast that was held last night at Lundgren's place, on Indianapolis boulevard. Roby. One hundred and fifty candidates, leaders, party workers and campaign officials were present, to eat fish, congratulate each other and tell just how it all happened that the grand old republican party came into' its own at the last election. Not only the public but the private dining rooms at this popular resort were filled to capacity. Besides the boys from East Chicago and Indiana Harbor, there were good delegations from Gary, Crown Point, Hammond. Lowell and other points. Miles E. Norton, county chairman of the republican party was there, and his team worker. Secretary Killlgrew. It was- the latter In fact, who told the secret that the popular county chairman was to receive the appointment of circuit judge to fill the position left vacant by the election of Judge W. C McMahon to the appellate court. This announcement was received with a burst of applause, showing conclusively that, the solid republican party of the county was heartily endorsing the appointment. Following the excellent supper, J. V. Rrissey, as city chairman of East Chlfeet. The chairman in his opening remarks designated the meeting not. only as a celebration of the close of the current campaign but as the opening of the campaign of 1920 and this was the keynote many of the speeches of the evening.

Sharrer of the I'nited War Work drive was delighted to learn this rr.ornhs that the Wm. Graver Tanks Works of Kast Chicago, which has 101 employes living in Hammond, had subscribed $611.32 for the drive by its Hammond employees alones in addition to what it had subscribed in East Chicago. Hammond Is exceedingly grateful to the Graver Tanks Works because it is the only plant outside of the city permitting its Hammond employes t6 credit their subscriptions to their own town and much of this credit Is due to Kent Bartlett, one of the factory heads who lives in Hammond. W. H. BLODGETT GIVES GARY SENATOR WHITEUF Political Writer Digs Up Some Ancient History at Capital. W. H. F'.odgett. the political writer, who covered the republican legislative meeting at Indianapolis, says of a welFknown Gary man: "Speaking of a senator who did not come back, brinirs to mind that the election of William Brown, of Hebron, as senator from the counties of Lake, I'orter, Jasper and New ton, marks the passing of Dwight Kinder as senator from that district. Kinder represented the district in the 1917 senate and waa very vigorous in his opposition to woman suffrage and state-wide prohibition. Once when he waa told that his course was not pleasing to the majority of his constituents he answered, 'Lake county will take care of me.' The saloon ko-p-ejs and booze bolsters of Lake county did try to take care of him, but the outside counties stok such good care of Lake county in the primary that Kinder was ignominously defeated for nomination. Outside his actlvitiea against all reform measures. Kinder was really a likable member. He told a story well, was accommodating and pleasant in bis manners. Consequently his friends are pl'ased to know that while he was defeated, thln'g?) are. breaking well with him in a financial way. He rides in a ! fine automobile, has a handsome home ! at Gary and is the owner of real estate that he has platted and is selling in lots that brings him a good income. So from a -business point of view -Mr. Kinder is doinjt wel.' HERE'S OFFICIAL 5TftTEPL!MLTIES Republicans Won Out by 49,413 Over Democrats for Secretary of State. At Stats Capital. Times Blbeai.

'Michael Foley, chairman of the state council of defense, delivered a strong appeal for an aggressive campaign. "Europe is on tire." he declared," and it is the duty to America to strike down the arm of treason, anarchy and bolshevism the world over. Thanks to the fatherhood and motherhood and sons of America we stand toJay in full, strong, vigorous citizenship." "There is euuugh brains in Lake county to handle the situation." said William Wade, state Liberty loan chairman, 'without outside help. But the fact is that you are face to face with a situation. What are you jroing to do about it?" , t Judge Peterson, chairman of the county council of defense was called upon.' "The only reason we overlooked this matter of 25 cents and $5 is because it was rather small." he said with the customary Peterson humor. "But if these gentlemen want the money we've l got it and they can have it." Captain Norton of Gary gave the following figures on iAt'ne county's war record up to tna W. S.

MUST CONTINUE ITS WORK (Continued from page one.) kept at its highest pitch at this time until the full fruits of the efforts of our armies and those of our Allies are not Only in sight but actually realized. "The American Protective League has had a large share In the work in this country which has mad'i possible the united support and the full success of our armies abroad and I am sure that your organization will continue to play its full part until the Department is willing to say that it has no further iieed for its greatest endeavors. "Very truly yours, "A. B. BIELASKI. Chief. "American Protective Lagu "Washington, Nov. 6, 191S. "To All Chiefs of the American Protective League: "Because of possible cessation of hostilities under an armistice and widespread discussion of the terms of peace, and because of the hourly dispatehes recording our victories on the battlefields, it is not only likely that the attention of members of the American Protective League and the public at large will be diverted to a serious extent from w-ari work, but that they will entertain the belief that the war is over and that lias arnveu. lllis ri iijiituun elusion involves great danger to thej Government. I A. Bruce Bielaski has written the enclosed letter to tho National Directors stating that he has advised that a few of the members of the American Protective League entertain the feeling that peace with Germany is practically in sight and that the need for the service of the American Protective League is no longer felt. In this connection he states: " 'Nothing could be further from the true situation. The need for the American Protective League is as keen now as it has been in the past and I am entirely satisfied that the need for thia organization will continue for some time to come, entirely without regard to the progress of the peace negotiations.' "This conviction is reflected in the War Department. "The National Directors heartily concur In these views and earnestly endorse the statements of Mr. Bielaski. As you

The demand for suitable quarters could not be met in some of the other cities talked know the great volum cf our worc comes from the Department of Justice and the War iKpsrtment. especially the 1 Military Intelligence Division. Both of these great Departments of the Govern- ' m nt are convinced that the necessity for this organization is as great at this tin.-! as at any time in the past, and i perhaps greater. I "The National Directors have just for the support and maintenance of Na tional Headquarters, addressing letters to all of the principal bankers of America. T'nquestionably many of the i bankers who have been asked to con tributo will be affected by the report therefore, will safeguard your own fi nancial support, will maintain the morale of your organization, and will have a favorable effect upon all with whom you come In crfntact. "Tou are therefore dlrecjted, both for the effect upon the individual members of your division, and upon the public, including the financial and business Interests of your community, to present Mr. Bielaski s letter immediately to tho newspapers in your city for publica tion and such editorial comment aa can be arranged.
