There is a wide sentiment among the business men and those interested in the growth of Hammond for the dismantling and clearing away of Liberty Hall. It is pointed out that the noble building erected for war purposes only has served its purpose splendidly and has now reached the stage where it is an eyesore to the loop business district and a detriment to the city's growth. It is not used and will probably never b used again, so the directors are being besieged with Importunities to get bids for its removal in one way or another Hammond's main thoroughfares are growing rapidly. The changes on State and Hohman streets in the past year have been notable, but the old Liberty hall is about falling to pieces in the heart of the city and it should be dismantled right away. The school trustees of the city will never hare a better opportunity than th?y have now- of leasing for a 99-year term or selling th property on which the war building stands. The school city is badly in need of money. It is not necessary to sell the entire Cent.-! school property. The school building itself is good for at least another decade and the Fayette Hohman street corner could be leased for a period of years at a fat rental and the school city could use the money in many ways- But as long as Liberty hall stands on the site of course no improvement could be made on the property. Get rid of the sad old eyesore before it falls into further disrepute and use the land on which it is located.
to raise his price and everything else that we eat and all the things we wear are out of sight." Henry saw- a great light. "Now. I have it." he exclaimed. "The farmer is the profiteer." On the living room table Henry found a letter from his brother, who farms a quarter section in Iowa, A paragraph caught his eye: "My hired help is askin? $30 a month and found." it said, "and I'll have to pay it to save my crops. Fertilizer costs twice as much as it used to and 1 won't be able this year to buy the new machinery I need, sometimes I feel like giving up., letting the farm go to grass, and look for one of those office jobs." And so the circle goos around. Henry has decided to build the bungalow at $4,000 and let the econ :' -fight out the causes for high prices. PUNISH THE CULPRITS. Civilization has now settled accounts with the Ger
man nation. It remains to settle with the individual criminals most responsible for the great calamity. The treaty signed by Germany gives the Allies a legal right to claim the persons of the former kaiser and those who t-hare with him th guilt of starting the war and waging it in .-o barbarous a fashion. The claim should be pressed at once. Acquiesence on Germany's part will be a test of good faith, showing whether the Germans intend to abide by the treaty they have signed If they refuse to yield the guilty men, in spite of their pledge, the Allies should proceed to take them. The moral effect will be all the greater if Wilhelm and his brutal satellites are summoned to the judgment bar while the war and its fruits are still fresh in men's minds. Their trial will besthe climax of the impressive drama of German retribution. It will fix clearly in the consciousness of all the world the facts of the war and the lessons learned from it. And if the prisoners are delivered over to a fitting punishment, it will be a lesson forever to rulers, statesmen, generals and admirals. The German nation is learning that a people cannot sin without paying in full. It remains for the Germans
to learn that men "clothed with a little brief authority" siust likewise suffer punishment for crimes committed in the name of the nation that a state is not superior to the laws of God and man. and that its representatives may be called to account, for public act? as for private acts. The war would have been won in vain if the German people, who are now known to have been equally guilty with their rulers, had not been made to suffer for a generation, not in vengeance but in partial recompense and in the working out of their own salvation. It will have been won in vain if one jot of possible and deserved punishment fails to fall upon the heads of the Prussians who have bathed the world in blood and brought mourning and poverty to many hundred millions of unoffend ing people.

COOLING OFF HOGS. Just the other day some ingenious scientist submitted a formula for stimulating a pig's appetite, which
struck many dispassionate people as a rather superfluous proceeding. And now comes the Department of Agriculture with a scheme for keeping pigs cool in summer time. It is said to be the product of the brain of a "swine extension man" in Mississippi. Around the pig-sty, or in the hog lot if you haven't any sty, you build a frame and cover it with burUp. Then you put a big pan or tub of water on top of the frame, with burlap "wicks" sticking in the- water and

THEY WILL TAKE OFF THE LID. In a recent speech while talking of the governmental waste, Conrgessman W. R. Green of the House ways and means committee declared that nothing but publicity can stop waste and extravagance. He says: "An instance of how- money is wasted is shown by the Housing Bureau which calmly announces that it does not expect to get any more revenue from th government dormitories here than is sufficient to pay the employes who are looking after the buildings. "The aircraft situation also needs more investigating. Congress ought to know why a certain airplane company can buy back from th government planes that cost many thousands of dollars for a tew hundred dollars without anyone else having a chance to bid and why buildings are being -wrecked at one camp and new ones being erected at another close by. These are only instances of a long line of extravagance which has prevailed an dwhich never will be stopped until all publicity is given." Of course there will only be one way in which pub
licity can be given and that is by means of a Republican j
press. The Democratic press may be expected to u?e silence when it comes to the outrageous waste and ex J travagance carried on by the Wilson administration for j
the last two yearsMr. Green need not worry about the publicity. :f will be staggering. All the Republican papers want are tha facts and they will print them.

WHO'S TO BLAME FOR HIGH PRICES. Henry White got tired of living in a flat and decided to go to the suburbs. He had plans drawn for a bunga-lo-w and got a price of $2,500 from a contractor. Then along came the war and Henry postponed building. When the armistice was signed Henry went to the contractor and said: "Well, you may go ahead now with the house." But the contractor demanded $4,000 for the Job. This started Henry on an investigation of the causes of prevailing high prices and he tried to track

If he kept a clean looking store, in a good location, he would get his 6hare of the trade. Busine?s would go by luck and chance and personal friendship and habit. The store that had the best location would get the most trade. People would buy at th? store where they could save the most steps. They would not go around a corner to get better values, because they would not know those values were there. Retail trade would come down to a dead level of uniformity. A man who did his best and gave good values would he pretty sure of a meager living. But there would be no chance for him to get ahead. He
