WANT PIONEERS TO
BUILD A FOUNTAIN
Beautiful Memorial VIII Be Erected In
Conspicuous Place

The pioneers of Gary are planning a
memorial which will perpetuate their
memory It has been suggested that
all those who were residents of the
city before July l, 1905, should CON
tribute to fund which would be used
to buy a magnificent drinking foun-
tain and watering trough
This is to be engraved with the
names OF all of the pioneers and will
be placed in some conspicuous place
in the city for the edifcation of flu
ture generations.
The idea seems to appeal to the
pioneers and it is expected that thew
will all give as much as they can in
order that the monument to themselves
may be as attractive as possible.

quires a bigger engine to pull a
