KINDER IS MAKING ' STRONG RACE

One of The Ions- list of ranrf;dsts aspirins for various offices in the coini5 primaries in My. prpbaWy not on has bffa assured by t'rirnds the ffitlalnty of Boins across the tape as winner, more than lias ex-Senator Pwtsiu M . Kinder, who is maktngr whirl-wind campaign for the nomination of prosecuting attorney. ,. a campaigner he is (ho in .that he has r.o equal and expression in his hrhalf explains that lie has been oovrnr.x c-ry nook anil corner in the rounty. As betting odds have u toflay. his supporters say that ' Dwisht us he is more commonly known, the no'iitioal 'Oulja" hoard jtives him u hi? shade tr.a best of the argument at the presnt writing ami as far hs he is concerned, ha is already tiyir.g casta. Py his energetic and eff-ctent methoris employed in his law practice, his ri;re aeverd in civic affairs hs a councilman and his four years in the ,-tate nate. Mr. Kinder enjoys an aoiuaintsree that extends over the entire county. Will's serving as a city and rub'ia official, not an instance can be recalled when Mr. Kinder violated ms oath of office, was always on the Jb anl lid things when lie was called upon, aa hla record shows. In every sens of the. word, he is r, Sf-lf-made nan and today by his nntiriner efforts, he enjoys a prominent part In public life. While stat senator, he mads an enviable record raining the name of a "plugRer" and a. "f.grhter" for the- people that pent htm to the. senate. He never forgot the folk at home. Tn his roiltical battles. Mr. Minder's prowess has found him to Jie a top-notcher. In 191S. after serving four years In the senat. he carried Lake, caunty for re-election for a secend term, pet tin? nearly as many vote? as hia four opponents combined, but l he, final count In another county In th tenth district swung the eieotlen In a different direction. Mr. Kinder has always been an ulttirlnc worker In the republican rank, having- taken an activa part !n tha party since, ha located in Lake county some 17 years go. When called upon, ha waa always wiilirjr and rsponsiv to nrv and as ample reaaea why ha flnda so many staunch suppcrtera an hia band wagon." Hi !orn in a square deal, reaard'egg of creed, color or position and if tha voters choosa him for the ofha is perfectly capable, of handling their Interest. Whiting is Visited By Holdup Men fSSECfsL TO THE TIMES M-HTTTSO, JSP.. April 8 Two robfceries and two false fire alarms featured Oil City'a activities during the past It hours. Thl morning" about 8:30 two men entered tha clothing store of Louis Baumwohl, 416 llJth street. Louis waa already there and greeted the, men with a cheerful "Good morning-, what can I da for you? Outside an automobile coughed and sputtered as It waited at tha curb. The soft purr of a kijrh-powered car, usually associated wtt"n burglar and the like, was missing, a Loula never auspected that the flivver which growled spasmodically "What hara you jrat that's cheap?" aiajiBnwT'iiui i . . mm4 mstssam 137iMO);(IDAR STREETS INDIANA' HARBOR 7 m & Mi'H'illilii'l'ii1.'!!!!)!!!!.'!

asked one of the two men. "Oh. everything." said Louis with a sweep of his arm and then he gasped aa two pistola hurrotled into his stomach. 'Open that safe." commanded one of the hold-up. Louis remonstrated but the crooks were as vicious looking as their revolvers so he obeyed. When the saO was opened one of the robber Tmelt and tosiing aside pap- rs and receipts lie reached the bottom and dug: up JS30. "Any Liberty bonds?" snarled the thief. "So." said Louis. They backed to the door and siiil had Louis covered as they leaped into the flivver, which had no license plaie and disappeared toward Kant Chicago. A few hours before this two men. presumably young and well built, toss .d a brick through the window of Robert Oordon"s men"s furnishing tore corner i.'"i;trl avenue and llfth st. The crash of glass failed to be heard by pedestraips or police and the robbery was r..t discovered until this mornine. wh-n li. William A. Gordon a Whiting dentist passed the spot, lie notified the police and they called the proprietor of the stove. Mr. Gordon said two nifty young men's suits had been taken and the forms went with them These were later found in the rear of a yard on Central avenue. 'It's something (hough they've got good tastes, anyway." said the optimistic Mr. Gordon. The f re department was called out twice last night. Each cull was a false alarm and one of them has been repeated from the fcame box for several days. The motive inspiring a person to ring the department three or four times from the same locality can be none other, it is said by firemen, than an unquenchable desire to look v.ron Whiting's handsome firemen. riiiKf: T Kr Chicago Thieves entered the tailoring shop of Davidson Brothers at 3508 Cedar St.. last night by taking out a front window and made a get-alway with three suits valued at $210 an da quantity of cloth valued at 1400.

After all a vacation isn't so much a matter of getting leave from work as it is having the money to buy clothes and to get away. Why not a vacation for you this summer? Start putting something in the bank each pay day, for your vacation fund and you will find a chance to get away. One of the fruits of having a bank book is that it helps you to get the best out of life.
