the honor Of sending to inquire for her
health that evening.
His desire would be to call at once in

programme arranged for this day and
several days to follow, not only each
hour, but each moment, would be Of

the letters OF Introduction had reached

according to the etiquette In Rhaetia,
for Lady Mowbray to announce her ar

the recipients. But Virginia had no

she had hopefully taken 1t up that part

office 1t must carry its own mail to and
from the post office. This having been
arranged a new circuit had to be Gre
ated and the C. c. & i. depot was In
cluded.
Nine different parties from Hammond
bid on the contract for handling the

You are in Hammond. When can you
get a train to Gary? You are Gary
lawyer. How can you get Hammond
and make connections for Crown Point.
You are an Indiana Harbor business
man. How can you get to Hammond
to South Chicago to East Chicago.
You are a Whiting real estate dealer
How can you see that man in Gary and
get back in the least time possible?
These are the questions which come
to the minds of the busy man in the
Calumet region and which are solved
only after a waste of time and patience
in asking numerous questions about
trains and receiving more or less &C
curate information.
The very apparent necessity for more
complete and reliable information re-
garding the coming and going of trains
in the entire Calumet district suggested
the idea of compiling and publishing
a Calumet Region Monthly Guide.
To Be Given Away.
After weeks of arduous efforts such
a guide has been published and today
5000 copies are being distributed free
of charge in every city in the region.
1t is not the work of philanthropist by
any means Unfortunately there are
no Carnegies and Rockefellers who.
seeing the people of the Calumet region
1oundering around in a maize of rail-
read tracks exclaiming, Railroads,
railroads everywhere and not train
upon which TO ride" were so impressed
with the necessity of a Calumet Re
gion Railway Guide that they imme-
diately endowed one.
Instead, the merchants of the region
have appreciated so well the need OF
such guide that they have contrib
uted advertising enough to insure its
being permanent convenience for the
people of the region.
The Calumet Region Railway Guide
is a booklet which may be conveniently
carried in the vest pocket In 1T is in
formation regarding every train or
every railroad in the entire region. II
also contains information regarding the
street cars and interurbans although
the schedule of the Chicago, Lake Shore
& South Bend interurban is not in the
present edition for the reason that the
cars are not yet running on a fixed
schedule.

Condensed Time Table.

There are condensed time tables
showing the trains between Chicago
and Hammond, Chicago and Indiana
Harbor and Chicago and Gary. In ad-
dition each railroad has "a seperate
time table in which the leaving time is
shown at the principal stations in the
egion.
In the case of the Lake Shore and
pennsylvania railroads which have a
Hoop suburban service; the trains are
shown going both ways around the
loop so that they may be followed from
Chicago around through the region
and back to Chicago again.
Another advantage of the guide is
the fact that the time tables are all
greatly simplified. 1t is practically
Impossible for person. no matter how
Intelligent he may be, to figure out the
average schedule of trains which are
published by the railroads.
Take the Lake Shore and the Penn
sylvania time tables for instance. 1t
would drive an ordinary person to
drink to attempt to follow a train on
their tables from Chicago around the
loop and back to Chicago again.

New Guide Simple.

In the Calumet Region Railway Guide
1t is simplicity itself. Follow line of
figures from left to right and it indi-
Gates exactly the time at which the
trains will arrive at the various sta
lions as the train progresses around the
loop.
The new time table will also be val
liable in that it will show how con-
nections can be made in any city in
the region. The question is heard a
hundred of times day. How can I
get to Gary from Hammond. There
may be no direct train on the Michi-
gan Central or the Wabash and you
may have a vague idea that you can
make connections at Whiting or In
diana Harbor. You know how and
when you can go to Indiana Harbor but
when you get there you are not sure
that you can get a train for Gary.
BY referring to the new guide you will
know instantly every train out of In
diana Harbor for Gary and you can
determine your connections with per
feet accuracy.

Makes Trains Available.

The Calumet region has the most
wonderful railway facilities in the
world but the average person uses only
a small number of the trains for the
reason that he has either no informa-
tion regarding them, or information
which is not reliable
AS the region developes and suburban
service is installed on the Chicago,
Lake Shore & South Bend interurban,
the Wabash and the Gary & Western
railroads. other trains will have to be
put on the time table until unless this
information is properly tabulated and
simplifed the traveller would be as
helpless as though he had only a few
trains to choose from.
One of the problems in getting out a
time table is that of keeping it ac-
curate. A person does not carry an
ordinary time table more than a month
when he finds that several of the trains
have changed time and perhaps he
has missed an important engagement.
The Calumet Region Monthly Rail-
way Guide is to be corrected every
month and a cover of different color
will indicate when the new tables are
out This will insure the information
being accurate as possible
Accuracy Assured.
| The tables in the new guide have
been checked over and rechecked until
they are as accurate as it is possible
to make them. However it is expected
that in spite of all of this care there
will be a few mistakes in the first
edition. These viii be corrected and
the time table will be improved and
simplified as each succeeding issue is
circulated until it becomes the perfect
medium for the publishing of informa-
ton regarding trains.
The new guide is the idea of Roscoe
E. Woods and is copyrighted by him
hut he was assisted in the work of
compiling the information by Will
Hastings. The timetable is printed
