The carload of sugar purchased by the committee a week ago has been cancelled. When Chairman J. A. Brennan learned from the food authorities at Indianapolis that It would be necessary to handle ii through the dealer and giving him his usual profit, it was decided by the committee that it would not aid the pjMic and stopped the shipment. Preparations are now being made by the purchasing committeee for the sale, distribution and disposal of the four cars of meats and canned goods. "Word has been received that all carload shipment of foodstuffs would be shirped out of Chicago by this evening and providing; there is no unusual delay the shipment ought to reach Gary some time Monday.

THE FAIR SEX AND THE BATTERY "Leave it to a woman to take good care cf a car." says Mr. Durham, the Willard Service Station dealer. "I found out a long time ago that when the woman of the family drives and takes a real interest in a car. it not only looks better, but runs better too." "Take the battery, for example. It is as hard to make the average man remember to put in distilled water every two weeks as it would be to make huri j remember to water plants. But when a woman once understands that a battery needs -water just as much as plants do. she's pretty sure to remember to put it In. "Another thin that counts is this: a woman driver as a usual thing Isn't j satisfied unless her car works perfectly, and if her battery isn't up to the scratch she wants to know why. As a general rule she does what every car owner ought to do. and drives around to have us locate the trouble and put the battery in A-l shape." To Telephone Subscribers.

LAUNDRY

MEN WORK TO In an effort to avoid a general tie-up in their laundry deliveries, starting Monday of next week, difficulties between the laundry owners and drivers in Gary are being patched up today. This week sixteen local drivers served notice on the laundry drivers that if they did not get their demands Ihey intended to walk out. They now ask $12 a week and 12 per cent commission on all collections. The present scale is $11 a week and 11 per cent commission. It is thought that the owners and drivers will come to a settlement. "The increase, does not seem much," said C. M. Leary, owner of the Double L. laundry this morning, "but Just the same it will -mean another expenditure of about $1,600 a year." "I have one driver who is a little ovr 17 years old and last week he ma l'" nearly $45. Another has his automobile. It is not the increase so much as it is the other questions involved. For years we have been making a fight agilnst the Chinese laundries, who get the cream of the roomers' business and also the shipme.nt of laundry outside of the city. A year ago there were 1(5 Chinese laundries in Gary and now there are only nine. "In making package deliveries and a'so collections we find it necessary to make, half a dozen calls sometimes be fore we find the people at home. They j are either at the picture shows, out shopping, at work or out of town. Gary people are not 'stay at homes.' It puts us up against a problem, because we have to employe two and three extra drivers just because of this fWct." PtRSDNAL is SOCIAL NEWS! With the approach of Fall and prices of wearing apparel advancing, you will be greatly repaid by going through your wardrobe and sending us such garments as you would like to have made NEW. Our process of cleaning is absolutely harmless your garments will be thoroughly cleaned, brightened and returned to you without the least trace of odor. We call for and deliver promptly in all parts of the city. Phone 141.

ANTI-BOLSHEVISM The Bolshevist believes himself as much a patroit as anyone else. Preaching patriotism, therefore, does not overcome this menace to orderly civilization. The church nmst be relied upon to point out man's duty to God and State. A godless man is a hopeless man and a hopeless man is easilv a Bolshevist at heart.
