to continue the fight for Lake county
people in Kidding the beautiful little
resort of its unsavory reputation. AS

curses of the people who get squeezed
THE TIMES has pointed out the evils,
sees the necessity of a remedy, If for
no other reason than the harm done
to the growth of the coming genera
ton, and now it's up to the people and
other county papers to cooperate and
help make Cedar Lake a pleasure spot
fit for the use of all aw-abiding and
respectable Lake county citizens. 1t
con be done and will be done provid-
ing-Well, it's up to you.

the profession if their winning is any
criterion.
