MAKE OFFICE End CLASS

The best news that has been heard
in Gary in a long time came from
Postmaster John w. Call, who received
the information from the government
that the Gary office is to be made sec
ond class in July and that great deal
more help is to be allowed.
This decision was only reached after
the postal authorities had made the
customary examination of the office and
OF the increase in the proceeds and de-
cided that conditions warranted the
change.
1t has been decided to change the To-
cation of the Office and bids have been
received for a great many of the owners
of buildings in Gary. 1t is the purpose
of the department to rent quarters
which will be large enough to antici-
pate the neds of the city for some time
to come.
The prospect of an improvement in
the service of the Gary Office will be a
welcome one for the reason that the
rapid growth of Gary has always kept
the demands on the force in advance
of what they could do.

pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known
