Definite action relative. to the building of West Hammond's soldiers and sailors memorial building is expected to be taken at a meeting of the committee in charge of the project which will be held this evening at the Wentworth school. Chairman George Hannauer has called the meeting to decide on several important points and map out a campaign. tevtral weeks ago Senator Medill M'Cormick offered the city a tract consisting of several city lots in West Hammond without cost. However, the location of the land is such that it can hardly be added to by rurchase and those pushing the project believe the building should have rlenty of grounds surrounding it. It is now being urged that th; entire block lying between Wentworth and Lincoln avenues and 152nd and 153rd streets be purchased by the city for a memorial park. This would furnish a tract consisting of forty-six city lots, and measuring about thirty rods long and sixteen rods wide. There are now only three houses in this block and it is thought these can be purchased at a reasonable figure. Sonie of the vacant lots are owned by people residing In other cities and Mr.
Bad Complexions Peeled Off at Home
The girl with the poor complexion complains. "I have to touch up my cheeks. I am sallow and a sight, and only my makeup saves me." Now, as a matter of fact, more women spoil their good looks than improve them with cosmetics. The practice certainly is unnecessary, now that the virtues "of ordinary mercolized wax as a beautifler have become known. It has bean found that the wax has wonderful
! absorbent powers. It causes the faded or discolored scarf skin to flake off in minute, almost imperceptible particles. so gently, gradually, as to cause no inconvenience at all. In this way the old complexion is actually removed likewise all fine lines, freckles, pimples. ! V 'r.t.V. mrtth t- a tiVna nnrl nthAr mrfnce

BACK FROi
OIL FIELDS
Fairly bubbling over with enthusiasm over the wonderful industrial activity which he had witnessed. Dr. J. T. Clark, president of the Wyommg.Thornton Oil Co.. returned to Hammond yesterday alter a trip to the- great oil ti. his of the west. Business is in full swiiis in those places and the scramble of different companies to get their properties on a paying basis is like the feverish days of a gold rush. In all directions from the WyomingThornton property, wells are being sunk fttid in sonic places oil apparently in pajing quantities is being struck at 4m feet. Litke County people who form thu majority of the stockholders in the Wyoming-Thornton Co.. will be delighted
to learn that the drilling rig. moved
on ineir lease last weeK and is now
ting ready to start drilling. The ni.jn expect to "spud in" about June 15. afterwhich it is figured they can go down nt the rate of about 100 feet per day. From nearby drillings and geological reports they are counting on hitting oil at il'O feet. Dr. Clark went i-p to the Thornton field and visited the North Central properly. There are ten producing wells in this vicinity. They are all shallow, being only to the depth at which it i
pump. The oil in thc.e standing-at n dpth of 150 The North Central, Hish South wt st companies are a community well to deep

riecessary to wells is now to 600, feet Gravity and putting down
sands They had reached a depth of forty feet when shortage of casing made it necessary to halt the work. A shipment of casing is expected daily, so the work may start again any time. Should these companies succeed in striking second sand, as geologists say they will, the North Central holdings will soon be worth a fabulous sum of money. Dr. Clark brought with him a bottle of oil dipped from one of the North Central shallow weiis. It is much lighter in color and thinner than ordinary crude oil and he sas it is a common occurrence out there for motorists to ui-e it along with refined gasoline in their cars just as it comes from the ground. Its gasoline content is veryhigh. He says there might of course be som? money lost through dishonest deaiing-t in this new field, but for square companies like Wyoming-Thornton and North Central he sees only the brightest futur"The only thing that could beat us v. r. M bo for the Kaiser to come over and tai-e it. and you know how likely that is," i? the way he expresses it. Dr. Clark is also boosting the Black Hills now as a mecca for tourists during the summer months. He has visited various parts of the United States, but had never heard much about the Black Hills until he made this trip west and pased through them. The 'scenery amazed him. A tourist who has been all over the world told him that "even Switzerland's scenery is not in it with the Black Hills." What he saw from the train and what he learned on inquiry has lead him to decide to spend a vacation there with Mrs. Clark in August.

WISE MAN WILL BOY GOAL NOW
CHICAGO, May 24 The United Ste.tes will be in the grip of a coal fcmlne within 60 or 90 days -wih prices in excess of the highest war time figures, unless consumers immediately enter the market with huge orders. This prediction was made by J. r. A. ilorrow. general director of distribution for the coal administration, attending the National Coal Association convention here today. Lank of fuel orders, grave labor situation, curtailment of production and insufficient railroad facilities were advanced as the cause for the anticipated famine and hifch prices.
This dispatch, wired by one of the most reliable Press Associations, will be appreciated by the wide-awake man. May. we suggest that you order your -winter's supply of Anthracite now? The prices will be considerably higher in the near future, and by ordering now you will have advantage of the best service, the lowest price and satisfaction in knowing your winter's supply is safely in.

TO BE WARM
Present Indications are that the session of the Hammond city council this evening is going to be a lively one. The matter for their consideration which now assumes greatest importance is ,the appointment of a successor to A. J. Ire -sen on the Board of Education in caso he is not re-elected. It is knoVn that Mr. Drecsen has a number of supporters among the aldermen who favor his return to the trusteeship. Opposing these will be a strong sentiment in favor of appointing a woman to fill the vacancy. A number of champions have arisen and say they will support a capable woman whose record shows she is acquainted with the needs of schools and has demonstrated practical business ability. Xames of several women are undr consideration and it is likely that thes? will be presented at tonight's session of the council. Alderman M. M. Bruce favors a man for the place at this time. He says that Dr. Smith, secretary of tho board, would rather have a business m:i on the job as the board has some heavy financial matters ahead of it. Later Mr. Bruce says he would be willing to voto for a sensible woman It is said that Alderman Louis Heckleman is a strong supporter cf the movement to elect a woman. He has been in favor of it for several years. Alderman E. W. Storker is another who is outspoken in his approval of the rlan. "I am very much in favor of the proposition." said Mr. Stockr today. -i think we should have a woman on the school board." The matter has been the subject of much discussion anions Hammond citizens and it is expected that there will be more present at the meeting of th council this evening- than hae attended In a long time.
