"RUBBERNECK" MIRROR.
Device Invented which will Show What
NeighbOrs Are Doing without
Effort on Part of the Curious.

The latest invention that found its
origin in Lake county is an apparatus
invented by Mrs. Camilla Johnson of
Whiting. The invention in question
is two mirrors which are put together
in such a way that when placed in a
window you can see what happens on
both sides and in all directions with
out craning your neck. The invention
might be called ''rubberneck'' mir
ror, for it will probably be used for
that purpose. Mrs. Johnson is very
much elated in securing a patent en-
her invention and says there is nothing
like it it this country and viii ind
ready sale.
Mrs. Johnson was in Hammond yes
terday afternoon and visited THE LAKE
COUNTY TIMES office where she explain
ed her new device.

Commissioners Agree to
This and to Other Addi-
tons to Park System.
COST ABOUT $780, 900
Hegewisch, Irondale, Burnside and
Grand Crossing to Share in
the Benefits.


South Chicago, Aug. 22.-The South
Park Commissioners yesterday after
noon al their monthly session prom
ised immediate action on the proposed
plans for parks in Hegewlsch, Irondale
Burnside, Grand Crossing and South
Chicago, to a committee composed of
business men from these suburbs are
headed by Senator A. C. Clark
This action came in answer to the
urgent request of the committee which
feared that the prospects for the parks
would be clouded should the new city
charter which is to be voted on next
month, go into effect. AS it eliminates
the South Park commission it is feared
by the residents of the suburbs as we'll
as by the present South Park commits
sioners that the interests of the manu-
featuring centers which at this time
are entirely without adequate parks
would be lost sight of and action be
postponed indefinitely, and therefore
the promise of the commissioners be-
fore their hands should be tire is ear
nestly sought.
Include Enlargement of BeSsemer.
The park plans include an enlarge
ment of Bessemer park of South Chi
cago and park sites for other suburbs
Senator Clark. who acted as spokes-
man for the committee, urged that
sites be bought Immediately and active
work begun on them in order to insure
their further progress in the event of
the adoption Of the new charter In
Guiding the charging of Bessemer park
of South Chicago it is estimated that the
total cost of carrying out the proposed
plans would not exceed 100000 and
this cost could easily be covered by
the recently authorized South Park
bond issue of 100000 which was set
aside for Improvement purposes. Presi-
dent Foreman of the commission an
nounced that $4,000 worth of these
bonds had already been sold. Commits
sfoner Best, speaking for the board
voiced its sentiments when he sai6
that the carrying out of the plans ha6
his approval. In connection with the
park project the extension of the
! boulevard system from Jackson park
to Russell Square was given considera-
| ton and will be a factor in locating
the sites for the different parks.
Sometime this week or during the
next, the South Park commission viii
tour the territory in which the parks
are to be located for it is the inten.
ton to buy, and if necessary, condemn
| the sites Immediately.
