newspaper for one thing and some for another. To many, local coloring is entirely uninteresting. The rural routes and farmers do not as a rule take city dailies when the county daily furnishes them with wire new and markets. Most cf. them are remarkably well-posted on international and national uews. So as a larK and varied subscription list is the very life blood of a newspaper, it is necessary to eater in a measure to the varied constituents and. in behalf of those who want home news in pot instead of demtasse portions we want to thank .Mm Turner fur his

HOME NEWS. Jim Turner, an lip-and-gnin? HammonJ youtiR man. i going to school at an eastern college. Jim Is a subscriber to this paper and as Mich, an investor who is entitled to his own opinion about, it and has a right to critk '..' a b a H i.tlu-r subscribers what, he dcesu't life it. If.- v, ,:;cs back b.o-ne thrit tiie paper seems to print too mue'i w i s r new? and not tiigli home happenings. We take no xf-,i'J-n io .lint's point of view. V can picture him open ins ii home paper and finding it ch-vk full rf new s concerning Senator Hitchcock ana the league of nations' reservations, the depreciation of the pound sterling;, some new presidential possibility, the eruption of W. J. Rryan, while home town news coueerninii reisons with whom the reader is more or le?s acquainted is scarce as teeth in a flock cf white leghorns. And ? et . a newspaper is r.or a!va . i o blame because of th-3 absence of loc.il cri'orins:. It do.-ant happen to be there sometimes. It" John Hrow n or Bill Smith, or the hut die r, the baker ar.d enndlestic.amaker pursue the oven tenor o' their respective was and decline to get into public print, what, we, ask, is a pocr newspaper going to do? Home news is what the wide-awake and industrious reporters are employed to get and they run their lgs off for it. They cover news beats religiously and bore their friends with constant yeips for information as to the latest, happenings and the just as constant cry is, " Don't know a thing." News is a commodity thrt fs like gold. U is hard to find. If a newspaper could print, gossip or incipient scandal, it could fill its pa ges and ! served with a score of processes in three days, fating it with as many libel suits and gunning for newspaper folk would be as popular as bunMng rabbits. There is another aspect to th featuring of home news in a newspaper with as large and varied a circulation as this, which the average reader sometimes fcrees. !r has a large constituency. Soitif people take a

THE DANGER IN INFLUENZA. Though not In as virulent a form as last winter, the epidemic of infiunri and its attendant dangers, none the least of which is the much-dreaded pneumonia, arc again rampant in this tenitory and the percentage of death among well-known people is just aa terrible if not more so. The scourge has isitcd homes that people would

generally consider immune because of the fact that j their owners are able to get anything ami every thing j that medical science can contribute to combat the ailment. The most skilled physician", scientific nursing, j dietary exactitude, and all that medicine in its most. '

modern profession can suggest were as unavailing as the lack of them would be in the porrest of homes. Death indeed plays no favorites where influenza is concerned.

The fact is, people have become panic-stricken i about influenza-pneumonia and by plating themselves j

in a susceptible mental-physical attitude towaul the; epidemic prepare themselves for its onslaught. Fearj is no weapon to fight disease. j Doctors tell us that the most difficult thing to do i in th early stages of influenra is to get the sufferer J to bed and make him May there and then after the j disease has run itn course to prevent him from getting ! up and pursuing his avocation for a few days. This j is where pneumonia lls jn wait for its victim. ; When you feel the symptoms of in duenna coming j on. gc to bed and stay there until your doctor releases ; you. If you get up before convalescence h;:s run its i course you run a great clanger of still mure serious J conditions. j I'be common sense sind in most case? of influenza, j without complications, you will rob the disease of its j terrors.

TOM S LATEST. You mav not agree uith everything Vice Fre5idcut Marshall says politically, but he said something funny at a banquet gtven to the delegates to the ran-American Financial congress in Washington when he chortled. "I know of no one less fitted to be here than myself. I have no money and speak no Spanish."

WE DON'T know how Senator Newberry is in the matter of a Fense of humor but we know he'd make a hit with us by making a speech on the paramount importance of individual thrift in this grave national c r is is.

THE 1'MTED STATES Steel corporation is just naturally so wicked that it cannot help paying ccmtnon labor $" a day. The way some industries persecute the poor, downtrodden workingman is a crime. PERHAPS NOTHING else so forcibly reminds a thoughtful eiperienced man of the superiority of prevention to cure as the advertisemeni of a dyspepsia tablet.

Don't Do the Work a Machine Ought to Do Washing clothes is a job for a machine not a woman. All the energy you have expended today and all that time and trouble could have been saved. Be Prepared for Next Washday Refuse to be "all tired out;" save yourself save your clothes save time save monev THE THOR ELECTRIC WASHER will end your Monday troubles for only 2 cents a washing. 300,000 women are washing the Thor way. Why should you not? Call East Chicago 69 (reverse charges if long distance) and make arrangements right now while it is uppermost in your mind. Small monthly payments to suit you.

What Men W Know Say!

Chief Austgen says: "Since the Boy Scout organization has been established in Hammond the police have had very little . trouble with boys, and never to my knowledge has a Boy Scout caused trouble requiring police attention." Chief Nill says: "Since the Scouts have been organized the fire department has had no trouble, with false alarms." Judge Norton says: "Boy Scout work guides restless, boyish energy into right channels and is very va luable." Are you doing all you can to promote this good work? Every boy has seven hours of leisure time each day. Scouting fills up this time.
