GARY GETS LAKE FRONT PARK NOW Steel Co. Finally Decides to Give the City a Park Along Beach. Gary wu made a present yesterday of a stretch of land along the lake front at Miller beach, covering approximately 116 !j acres of valuable land. The estimated value is about $500.0f0. The presentation came as a complete surprise. W. P. Glc-ason, president jf the Gary Park Eoard. announced thst the United States Steel Company had decided to make the grift of the strip of land to the city, to be utilized for park purposes. Tho news became public at a special joint meeting of the park board, city oiScials and a number of councilman yesterday. It was the result of great rejoicing as the donation is a lake side tract long sought aftr by the city for park purposes. An eifort has been mad, to secure the tract for the past twelve years. Such a high price was placed on it that the park board turned the project down. The tract Is located just outside of the Tenth ward and includes what is now known as Miller beach and with some adjoining acreage it now- gives the city i.early a mile of lake frontage for park purposes. Through the gift it was learned that the steel corporation has bien working for some time to close the deal, in their effort to furnish Gary with a Uke ide recreational park. It nils a long-felt want. Following its presentation. fitting tpeeches were heard in behalf of the mayor and city officials thanking the steel corporation for their donation. V. P. Gleason also made a number of interesting remarks on the future of the park, stating that the city ought to endeavor to have a street car line operating out to the beach by next summer. Also that a much needed modern bath house must te erected, instead of the tumble-down shack which now graces the shore of Miller bach. Other needed improvements were spoken of.

The entertainers brought with them a Ave year old lad who astonished the audience by rendering the popular favorites. West Hammond i practically a unit f"r the project. The large committee which was appointed to handle the matter has been able to personally see hundreds of citizens. The meeting Friday night was to explain the proposition still further in ordr that all will know what they are voting on when th" election is held on September 10. The flcit.on ha been called for the oeople to rici ide whether bonds for $40,1100 t-hall be issued to finance the matter . It is thought this amount will be amply sufficient to purchase the site, make park improvements, lay out recreation grounds and put " pthe first part of the building. The memorial building will be patterned after the Ch.icr.g9 community centers and will be arranged ?o that conditions can be made later. A parade of the school children of the city will be held Sundav, September T. ai a reminder of the election which will be three days later. It is posiible that another public meeting will also be called before then.

CONNECTIONS SHOULD BE TIGHT. "One of th" commonest causes of undercharged batteries." says Mr. Durham, Willard Service Station dealer, "is loose or dirty connections." "It is a good scheme to go over the wiring every once in a while, particularly between generator and battery. If there la a loose connection anywhere along the line it hinders the flow of current and will in time starve the battery." "When it is found that a connector is loose at the battery, the best plan is to take out the bolt that holds it in place, take off the cable, rub both of the eonstact surfaces with sandpaper, bolt the two rarts tightly together and nnal'y coat all the ex posed led parts with a thin film of vaseline. Tou will then corrosion that would otherwise result if have a good tight joint and at the same time will provide protection againt the any acid happened to spill on the lea'V COMMUNITY "SING" AT PARK Plans have been practically complet- . ed for Hammond's big community sint; which is to be held at Harlson park, Tuesday evening.
