Spring and summer bring the crge of vacation travel and change of scene. Each season sees new resorts come into popularity while ethers wane. Resorts may flourish and fade, but one summer outing Sever loses its charm for old friends and is constantly acquiring Dew admirers, and that is a vacation spent on a Great Lakes' steamer. Thousands of vacationists from the middle states make the trip from Chicag-o or Milwaukee to beautiful Georgian Bay with its Thousand Islands clustered about Ontario's resort dotted shore. Other thousands, sailing from Buffalo, Toronto or Tort McNicoll, head westward and northward through Erie and Huron into that inland sea cf dark blue water, Lake Superior. The round trip from Port McJicoll on Georgian Bay, to Fort William at the head of Lake Superior, makes an ideal week's outing. The lake steamers are commodious and equipped with all the

comforts and luxuries of ocean liners, also some uniaue to themselves such as out-door dancing space on the after-deck and dining salons fitted with large plate glass windows through which wide views may be enjoyed. Perhaps the chief point of interest on this trip is the passage through the famous "Soo Canal where ships of all sorts and sizes are lifted from Huron into Superior bv the canal locks. Many millions of dollars of Canadian and American money has gone into the construction of this canal and it is operated jointly by the two govern

ments. There are two canals, an American and a Canadian, but they operate as one. Ships pass through either as accommodation becomes possible. What this canal has done to promote transportation through Lake Superior, may be surmised by the fact that during 1919. vessels to the number of 17,687 and 56.992 passengers passed through it locks. Vast quantities of freight also find their way to market via this man-made waterway which supplanted the dangerous rapids that connected the two lakes and at one time isolated the greatest of the Great Lakes.

Mich., who swindled Augusta Kresta of 407 'John street out of $2,000 was taken to Crown Point on. Monday morning to await his trial for grand larceny. WeiKS, who was brought back from Detroit by Officer John Benak of the Whiting force, is a member of a tcan? operating In several cities. He has a criminal record, having already served considerable time. His first identification was when Chief Collins took Kresta to the identification bureau in Chicago where he picked out the picture of Weiss as the swindler, and later picked out his pal. The next step was when Sergeant Nlzlolklewici gave the license number of the mysterious Michigan machine he had seen in Whiting this day and looking up

the records found this license had been Issued to this same Harry Weiss, living in Detroit. The men had not let Krerta see his auto, he never knowing they were In a machine. When the two incidents matched up so well the police were sure they had their man. and

wired Detroit to have him arrested.

The question of getting the croolc here

was the next to consider. Whiting- having no fund whatever to use in getting fugitives back here. Chief Collins In Inquiring of the county learned that a

very small fund Is reserved tout they are very careful how It is used. It Is

so email. Accordingly Kresta was con

pelled to stand the expense of bringing Weiss back. Including also the of

ficers expenses for going after hlm. It

is thought by many that a contrlbu

tlon for this purpose should be on hand, for If a man robs you and goes to another state it will be Impossible

to -bring him iback providing you yomr

self haven't got the money to foot the bilL The Whiting police are expecting to soon have the pal of Weiss In their

possession. , "- i

I have given it to a number who were terribly afflicted, even bed-ridden, some of them seenty to eighty years old. and the results were the sanm as In my own rasa.
