HOW HAMMOND GROWS.
EDITORIAL

In view of the fact that Hammond
will essentially be interested in build
ing for number of years 10 come. THE
TINES has felt that some special at
tention should be given TO the build
ing trade and their allied industries.
This page presents in, as yet. very
crude way the news that THE TIMES
will with the proper encourageme MT,
give of the many forms of industry in
cident to the upbuilding of city 1t
lies with the business men of Ham
mond-the contractors. whether car
penters. masons. electrical, plumbing,
painting. etc.-whether or not this edi-
ton shall continue. The present edi-
ton will be continued weekly on
Wednesdays for three months. The
management OF THE TIMES feels that
the edition viii BY that time have re-
ceived a sufficient try-out.
THE TIMES offers better facilities for
an edition OF this kind than any other
publication in Northern Indiana. With
the sale OF the extra copies contracted
FOR by advertisers in this issue and
others interested in the growth OF
Hammond, the edition Will reach in
the neigh borhood OF 10000 copies.
Hammond builders and real estate own
ers need a larger medium of advertise
ment than that offered by any other
newspaper Because THE TINES con-
tains all the news OF all the Calumet
region and Lake county. ii is read by
people all over northern Indiana. 1t is
therefore, the only really valuable

HAMMOND SHOWS REMARKABLE
GAIN IN BLDG. OPERATIONS

In spite Of the fact that strikes have
crippled building operations; that peo-
pie have been convinced, although
they have been in error, that the
cost OF building is higher than ever
before; that business conditions have
been unsettled all over the country.
the city of Hammond IS witnessing re-
markable progress in building
Statistics prepared by THD TIMES
show that there are building opera
tons IN progress aggregating 1865, 900,
and that building operations are pro-
Jected which will cost when completed
in the neighborhood of 1892 600.
These figures do not include score
Of smaller jobs which Will run the
amount up to half a million dollars in
each case That means that in the
neighborhood of 100000 worth of inn
provementS are under way or are pro-
jected
IL there had been more money to
loan and the money market had been
easier, and If labor conditions had not
been so threatening 1t is safe to say
that the buildin separations in Ham
mond would have aggregated $4,000
900 this year
This does not compare with Gary
/ the growth Of which Is nothing shor'
! OF phenomenal. but it does compare
favorably with the other cities in the
country which are known to be live
growing towns, and it is a healthy
growth that speaks well for a city a.
conservative as Hammond
1t IS expected that there will be Z
large amount of activity IN the build
ing line this fall If there is it bode.

RAINY DAISY REFORMERs
Short Weight Dealers Are Now Being
Hunted to Their Lairs.

Dealers who have been in the habit of
using weights and measures that wont
bear inspection had better hurry up anu
get new ones, for the Rainy Daisies. three
hundred strong, are camping on their trail.
The Rainy Daisies accomplished the origi-
nal purpose of their organization, namely,
the introduction of the short skirt for rainy
days and fine ones as well, so easily that
they shave taken up various other reforms
just to pass the time, but nothing has ever
gone TO their hearts like this business OF
the weights and measures.
Some weeks ago the State Sealer of
Weights and Measures, Fritz Reichmann,
told them about the dark and devious ways
of the butcher. the baker and the grocer
The Rainy Daisies Immediately appointed a
committee to agitate the matter. and the
whole club pledged itself to buy scales and
keep tabs on the dealers.
The committee, which includes Mrs Llovd
Delbridge. Mrs. Frank McWatters and
Mrs. J. NJ Steeples, is in constant touch
with Mr. Reichmann, and the Rainy Daisies
hope that the movement will soon spread
to other clubs. and I'm the end perhaps may
result in a new organization.

it is little hard to understand. Some su-
perior persons are of the opinion that a
head covering, to be rational, should shade
or appear to shade the face, and the cape
line seems to satisfy this demand with some
completeness. although it is true it may be
tipped so as to distribute the shade very
unequalIy.
The crowns of these wide hats may be
high or low and the decorations used are
most interesting and varied. One milliner
frequently uses for them a single knot of
satin. but her knots are the result of in
spiration and none but genius could copy
them. On the other hand, the hats NAV
be almost covered with a fiat trimming OF
loops of wide velvet ribbon and wreaths Of
roses. An effective decoration in quite d
different style consists of band of rather
narrow black velvet ribbon about the crown
ana two immense taffeta roses.
Sometimes the trimming is all on the
crown and completely conceals it. In
Broadway shop are shown some models in
pastel shades on which the crown shows
nothing but a soft, fluffy mass of ostrich
feathers in the same hue as the brim. and
used without any visible stem. a black
erin hat has a flower covered crown calcu-
lated to call up pleasant memories in the
mind of any one who has ever watched
neglected old garden springing into beauty
in the month of May. At first sight the
blossoms seemed to be only those of the
lilac and the locust but closer inspection
revealed several different kinds of modest
little garden flowers peeping out from
among these more conspicuous ones.

The process of her disillusionment is

patterns-the wife herself, the pleasure
