WHAT REALLY DID IT. From the very first of his campaign, this paper pointed out that the people were with Johnsou because he was against the League of Nations. That has been borne out again by undeniable facts. Those: who heard Jchnson speak noticed that Johnson's remarks about the league pact were sure-tire, applause-bringers. ids audiences gave proof that they were fed up ou the Yiison League of Nutious. This was brought cut in the Indiana primary and impels the Kort Wayne News to say"Moreover, it has ben shown by the Johnson vote in this state, as it was disclosed in Michigan, New Jersey and in ether states, that Johnson s strong atti;jde against 1k Wilson brand of :r -nationalism ai.'l the Wilson league of nations monomania is gaining him uppGrt and getting him p.iuiaiy otos that nothing else in his recoru and nothing else in his program tojid possibly emmand f:r him. The vote, in Indiana for Senator Johnson does not li'iais that his politic-'! extremism is making appeal to great numbers. Thousands 13 this state voted lor l-.; i bet ruse his uncompromising stand against the league of nations as Mr. Wilsou has attempted to ram it down the throat of the senate and against any league whatever, fcr the matter of that expresses with distinctness what i- in their own minds. That is the meaning of the bis Johnson vote. As n embudin-.-Lt of the w v they I eel abou; the Wi'.,,.j Jc-gue, Johnson alorded the. a i ciianrc to swat straight tud hard. Straiglit and L.-.r.i they .utted. thousands of them."

BETTER LEAVE IT ALONE. The injection of te wet-dry question in the candidacies of several gentemen who ran for office in the Lake coupty primaries. If we may judge by the results evidently did them no good for they were defeated. The people that is the majoilty of taem ars getting just a bit tired of the liquor question. A certain element used to mis it with politics to the disgust of the. people and the party or indiviJua) which tries to iniv li'juor nnd politics in future will :ue it as sure as tlu run shines. If the republican or democratic party monkey with the liquor question in their platforms this summer the people will not forget it in November. WOMEN VOTERS' LEAGUES. Organization of a non-partisan league cf women voters has led some to suggest that thi country may have a great women's party and that no end of complications may result. Such " fears," however, must subside on reflection that while every political party is a league of citizens, there is a considerable difference betweu a party and the common notion of a league, the latter freaueutly beiug fonued within a party to advocate certain issues. The women have as much right to have their leagues as the men, and none of them of any importance would be silly enough to advocate the use of the vote to divide the sexes on political lines. The vote will not change the nature of women, although it will improve their position, 6n(l husbands and wives will consult over election matters a3 they do ever others. Wives, daughters and sisters. exa cepting in the case of the few freaks Who are always bidding for limelight or else acting foolishly becausi they can't help it. will not be found organizing again.-t husbands, fathers and brothers. They may have, am properly, their associations for developing sentiment for seme project particularly of interest to women, but as pointed out. this is no more than many men voter, do. The non-partisan spirit is just the one in wh: to launch movements for reforms; having obtained t.; vote in this wat'. women may be expected to exeit .. gcod influence against partisanism of the narrow son The great majority of American women can be depended upon to use the vote intelligently. The men have enough freaks in politics to cause them 10 go slowly about sneering at the many good suffragists (.:; ! account cf the foolish few. ,

APPEAL FOR SALVATION ARMY. An appeal to the ministers of Indiana to make Sunday, May 9, "Salvation Army ' Sunday" has been addressed to the members of the clergy in this state by Evangellne Booth, Ccmmander of the Salvation Army. The appeal has been directed through the executive committee of the Salvation Army Home Service Appeal, which will be conducted in every county in Indiana beginning May 10. It will continue through May 20. y which time it is hoped that the full Indiana quota will have been raised. May 9 has been chosen as the date for Salvation Army Sunday because it Is the Sunday immediately preceding "the inauguration cf the canvass for the army In Indiana. Under the new plan of organization, a single annual appeal Is made and the old tambourine collection method has been virtually dispensed with. The day will be observed not only in churches, but will also be made a time of service by the Army's workers and officers wherever they go. Special gath-

TALK AUDIT BISRb '. It may be that the great and constant gamble wite bugs, weather and markets is one of the things that makes farming so rascioating. The general public does not realize that agriculture is just about as certain as speculating in oil stocks. Observe these facts and doubt the statement if you can: One day of unusual heat at the critical time may reduce the yield of an oat field 25 per cent. A few hours tf rain can half ruin a crop of wheat Potato yield may be reduced from 23 to "lOper

! cent by a short dry spell.

One cold rain can ruin an apple crop. One hot, muggy day may entirely spoil a cro; of beans. And to these features must be added the fact that countless insects are at constant war with, he .farmer and that, after he has brought his cop through all these dangers, he has practically nothing to say about the prices he gets, says the Nation's Business.

EAGERNESS OF the Japanese to leave Siberia Is little short of marvelous, as the recent occupation of Vladivostok demonstrates.

THE AUSTRIAN" archduchess who 13 to wed "a scion of an old Prussian family" drawing a salary of $20 a year must be marrying for love, certainly not fjr money.

So

Suggests A Great Hypothetical Question

If

You have been living on a fifty foot lot in a congested neighborhood where the houses are close together and you have hardly enough room for a cement driveway and the inside rooms are dark because the houses are so

close together. AND IF yu have always wanted a nice big lawn in front of and around your house; one of those places - where the house sits away back from the street and there is room enough to build the long way facing the street. AND IF vou nave aIwavs wanted a real garden where you could have the usual truck and vegetable plots and then a few fruit trees and berry bushes as well and go in for a lot of things in the way of a garden that a lack of space has prevented up to date. AND IF vou na seen some f tnose beautiful North' Shore suburbs where the homes are all on large plots of ground, surrounded by park like spaces filled with shrubs and flowers and have wondered why we could not have such beauty spots in Hammond. AND IFyu have long had the idea that some one ought to lay out a HIGH GRADE acre subdivision close to the -better residential district of Hammond in an environment that was so hedged that it could not be injured by encroaching factories or other undesirables. W'hy Theil The South View Addition is What You Want In South View tne lots range in size from onehalf to one acre. The subdivision lies in that favored strip of ground between Hohman street and the State Line, where ninety per cent of Hammond's finest homes are now built; just south of Kenwood and north of W. G. Paxton's home. Ill South View there is a small park to be dedicated to the city and beautiful winding streets, broad boulevards, lots 100 feet wide and 150 to 285- feet in deptK. :. ' . In South View yu are on an elevation that is 25 feet above the river level, an elevation that overlooks the beautiful valley of the Little Calumet river, close to the Cook County forest preserve of 130 acres. In South View you will not have to wait for any of the public utilities and all of the public improvements, such as sewers, sidewalks and streets, will be put in in the near future. In South View restrictions will call for homes of the better class. There will be no flats. Seventy-five-foot building lines will be the rule. Hedges instead of fences will be required, and the whole idea will be development along orderly, beautiful lines.

Our Proposition Unusual To Move this Subdivision in a Short Snappy Campaign

We have Decided to Sell the First Ten Lets at Practically Cost Prices. You Get the Subdivided Profit Have an Appointment at once and Get Additional Facts
