GOOD WORK OF SALVATION
ARMY HERE
Would you believe that in the last year in Hammond alone over 1000 persons received aid in some form from the Salvation Army? This is Just one of many points to bear in mind when solicitors make the rounds next week in the campaign to raise funds for the Salvation Army and Boy Scouts. Attorney Jesse Wilson, chairman of the Salvation Army advisory board in Hammond, has compiled some facts and submitted them to T X. Bunnell and H. J. Oescheidler, Who are members of the executive board of the dual drive. la the past year the Salvation AVmy has assisted over 200 famil
ies In Hammond, over 1,000 individuals have .received help'. Food, fuel clothing and shoes have been
given the needy; the sick have been! visited and cared for; beds, meals
aim imuepurmuon nave neen furnished transients stranded here, including a number of ex-service men. Nightly meetings have been conducted on the street and In the Army hall. These meetings have given inspiration and cheer to many discouraged men and women. Fer haps th greatest service the Army renders is the continual urging of men, women and young people to practice in their lives the teachings of the lowly Nazarene. The twenty-nine Women's rescue and maternity homes conducted by the Salvation Army opened their doors to over 4,000 girls in this country last year; girls who were in trouble, many of them still in their teens. A girl of fourteen years of age recently gave birth to a child in the Chicago rescue home. The Army claims that 85 per cent of these girls are permanently reclaimed and live virtuous lives after leaving the homes. There are eighty-two Industrial homes for men where the homeless man can find temporary shelter and food until he can find a Job. Fiftytwo working men's hotels furnish clean rooms and pleasant surroundings at a normal cost to men work
ing for small wages. Boarding j homes for working gtrls are con- j ducted for the benefit of out-of- j town girls who are working in the city. The Salvation Army labor j bureau finds thousands of positions' for both men and women. Space ' will not permit a description of all! the fifteen major activities of the j Salvation Army; all of the service! of the Army is at the disposal of j Hammond as well as other com-! munitles, through the local advls- '
ory board. The entire work of the Army is financed by the, annual Home Service campaign. The Hammond budget endorsed by the advisory board is $5,000, and unless this amount Is realized, the local work will be crippled.
PROHIBITION
A
SUCCESS?
ASK POLICE
"Is prohibition a success?' Ask members of the Gary poiice department whose duty it is to assist In enforcing the Volstead act. i-aat nionih, accoiding to the monthly report issued for April today by Chief of Police W. A. Forbis, of the Oary police department, seventy offenders were arrested for drunkenness, besides fifty-three taken tor violating the state liquor law. Even in Gary's heyday of "wetness" not as many drunks and liquor law violators were arrested in one month. "Willis are getting
pretty scarce," Prohibition Enforco-
ment O-.cer George Weeks of this district, stated this week, but it
can be seen not so scarce that the sponge squad cannot average better than one a day, besides the thousands of gallons of mash and "moonshine" liquor which is confiscated and destroyed, and this is in Gary, alone. Drunks and liquor violators took first money for the total number of arrests during April, with 123. This number is nearly one-half of the total of 289 arrests for the month. One hundred and sixty-six others were arrested for other offenses. Thirty-five were arrested for violating city ordinances, mainly traffic rules and assault and battery cases totaled twenty-two, another indication of fighting caused through the use of moonshine whiskey. Of the 289 arrested, 2(5 were males and 24 females. Fines and costs paid In the city court amounted to a total of $2,623. Thirty-three crimes were committed and those arrested of twenty-eight different atlona.ll ties.
SECRET OF A GOOD DISPOSITION
Not until you see them can you realize that such style
and value is possible at
such a low price.
A woman who carefully safeguards her health benefits her dlstfbSition. She will be happy and attractive to all. The world unfortunately is filled with sweet women wfco are unhappy because they are AId back Irom usefulness by troubles so common among them, rretfalnesa and nervousness rapidly destroy good d'.spos.tlous. Sickly, ail-orn-out women cannot make happy homes. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable i ompound is a safeguard of women's health. This is clearly proven ur the many letters we are continually publishing In this paper, from women who have been restored to health

It Isn't The PRICE That We Direct Your Attention To So Much As It Is What Is BEHIND It In The Way Of STYLE, QUALITY And VALUE. The price of a shoe means nothing until you see what is behind it. What is behind i the price of Newark shoes? (1st) The saving we effect on annual purchase of nearly five million pairs. (2nd) The lower margin of profit on which we can sell in consequence of our huge volume; and (3rd) The economy that results from the scientific, low cost operation of our 400 stores: These combined savings sgo into your pocket, where they belong. It is through this greater value giving that we have built up the largest retail shoe business in the world. Why pay more for the same quality or pay the same price and get less? Newark shoes are America's greatest value. Let us show you.

HARD NG
MAY HONOR
CH
(INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE) WASHINGTON, Aiay 6. 1'resident Hardinjf is contemplating- the appointment of his private secretary, George B. Christian, Jr., to the post of Governor of Torto Rico, to succeed the present incumbent, E. Mont Reily, of Kansas City, accordingto persistent reports current today in Congressional circles. No confirmation was obtainable at the White House. In contemplating such a move, President Harding entertains no thought of repudiating Governor Reily, it was stated, but has become convinced that because of the difficulties Reily has experienced in administering the affairs of the island, it would be better for Porto Rlcans and for the interests of the United States to send somebody to the territory who could ally the widespread unrest that now exists. President Harding has been inclined to attribute most of Reily's difficulties to the activities of the Porto Rican Independence faction, and has stood staunchly by his appointee. Governor Reily's friends contend that he really was sent to the Island to squelch this separatist movement, and this, they claim, he has accomplished.

Seriously, the Idea is to allow the councilman to utilize their police powers in emergencies without fear of jeopardizing life and limb because some fellow townsmen fails to recognize them. It is proposed to have 'both republican and democrat councilmen to wear the same kind of badges. There may be objections to this from both sides. First, however, must come word from the finance committee, telling whether or not the city can afford this honor to her city dads.

PICK BEST HILLS FOR SEED STOCK Selection of Potato Seed at Digging Time -HelpsYield. BY COUNT Y AGENT V. A. PLACF CROWN POINT. Ind.. May 5. Every farmer who gets certified seed, as well as any others who expect to get good yields, should hill select his potato seed for next year's planting Just before digging time while the vines are still green and the tubers are immature. Farmers in other counties in Indiana, who have followed this practice report increaaea of 60 bushel or more per acre as result of their efforts. In order to do this successfully go Into your potato patch before
frost with a fork and a basket and select hills which have not more than three stems and are healthy
and vigorous. Dig these and if.
.
tney nave a saiismeiuij irumuct ifof tubers upon them, throw all the!(.
potatoes in the hill in the basket
for , seed. If the hill i not 'better .;' than the average return it to the I b'4
ground and covej- it again. By keeping up this method until you have secured a few bushel of seed for next year's planting you will be taking a decided step ia improving your seed stock. Of course this practice must be kept up year after year to secure best results. After digging potatoes for seed, they should be stored in a cool dark cellar and held at as low a temperature as possible until planting time.
