each faucet, $16. The Gary situation is quite different from that of either Whiting; or East Chicago. The water In Gary Is not filtered, the raw lake water Is furnished for domestic purposes. However, the Gary intake 1 out Into the lake about a mile, far enough to avoid any sewage from the industries. Gary ha a meter rate. For the first 20,000 gallons there it a charge of 25 cents per thousand salIons per month, the next 130.000 gallons In excess of the 20,000 tallona per month Is 10 cents per thousand gallons. Providing the charge for Installing meter and furnishing water through meter shall not be less than 19 a year. Bills are paid monthly with a 10 per cent reduction if bill Is paid 10 days after it is presented for payment. Hamond still has the old flat water rate. The am rate tbat was In effect In Kast Chicago and Indiana Harbor during 1915 and up to November 11. 1920. HtOXOMV IRCKU IN VSR. It is a certainty that the commission will continue the use of the meters, which is the only Just way for the consumer. However, if people will protect themselves by the economical use of water the exorbitant water bills will be avoided. Water Is wasted If faucets are leaky, if there are defects In pipes, or other plumbing parts. IxAks soon cause the bill to mount up. As a precaution to those whose water bills appeared to be excessive, go over all the plumbing In th house with a view of finding leaks. Better still hav a plumber Inspect your pipes and fixtures and let him make what repairs are necessary. This warning has been brought to the attention of the people of East Chicago and Indiana Harbor a number of times, but July will be the last lsp of the carelesg use of water so "preparedness" Is the word.

The black man answered him with. a blow from a black jack. Then drawing a knife, he proceded to slash and cut his helpless victim. (PeopJ In the neighborhood were able to save the man. The police arrived ahortly afterwards and captured the assailant. White has a bad record, having serv ed time in Michigan City and on the State penal farm. A man, cray with whiskey, ran amuck through East Hammond yesterday, firing a big revolver into the houses on both aides of the streets, and sending, bullets whizzing past scores of pOple. Screaming women and chi4ren ran terror stricken Into their homes, and men hurried out of hts path. A bullet crashed through the side of Number 19 Company House and Into the crib of a baby lying there. The bullet was found among the ' bed clothes. Men In the vicinity finally rushed the wild man, who jumped into a machine and escaped. It was said that . 100 shots were fired. The baby Is the child of a Mrs. Rush.

This comprises the total of Hammond's celebration. How many burned fingers, sore heads and smashed fi'nders the reporter missed, no one will ever know. How many people stared Injury or death in the face, Is problematical, but H fs extremely doubtful if the citizen of this city. In all of their hectic existence, ever experienced a more complete ceebration of the glorious day of Independence .

This Week's Beauiy Help

It Is not necessary to shampoo your hair so frequently If It Is entirely and properly cleansed each time by the use of a really good shampoo. The easiest to use and quickest drying shampoo that we can recommend to

our readers is one that brings out all the natural beauty of the hair and nny be enjwyed at very little expense, by dissolving a teaspoonf ul of canthrox, which can be obtained from any druggist's, in a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so Jt is easy to apply It to all the hair instead of just to the top of the' head. This, when rubbed into the scalp and onto every strand of hair, chemically dissolves all impurities. It Is very soothing and cooling in its action, as.well as beneficial to both scalp and hair. After rinsing out the lather so created, you will find the scalp is fresh, clean and free from dandruff, while the hair dries quickly and evenly, developing a bright luster" and -a soft fluiffiness that makes it seem very heavy.
