$4,000 IS
GIVEN FOR
THE CHURCH
Especial to THE TIMEs)

Indiana Harbor, nd. Nov. 4. St.
ed into history Saturday after a most
successful three days run.
1t is estimated that no less tina
$4,000 was cleared by the event. to say
nothing of the added good fellowship
that vas established among the parish
toner's themselves and between the
church, under whose auspices the af-
fair took place, and the other religious
denominations. The money raised will
be used to pay off the church debt.
A noteworthy feature of the bazaar
was that much of the patronage came
from non-Catholics, a fact which is at
tributable to Father M~ungoven's per-
sonal popularity even more than to the
excellent management and hard work
of the faithful who saw the bazaar
through to success.
Everybody had a good word to say
for Father Mungoven and much praise
for w. j. Riley, Thomas O'Connell and
the rest who have so u~nstintfngly Civ
en- of their services to make the affair
a success. John PoPulton of South Chi
cago, Frank Gavi of Whiting, Mayor
Becker of Hammond, Joseph Ibach of
Hammond, w. B. Van Horne of the
Harbor. all were warm in their praise
of Father Mungoven and his efficient
assistants.

HOME0WuER
OWNING HOME

THE TIMES is gratifed that the real
estate men of Lake county are placing
home acres on the market. We are a
believer in every man owning his own
home. no matter how small the build
ing or plot of ground upon which it
stands.
Not only is there the saving of rents
in this and the substance of actual
ownership. not only is it the best saw
ing banks, but, best of all, it brings
that feeling of independence, essential
tc the highest grade of citizenship.
But vastly greater is this independ-
ence in fact, when the home, no matter
how tiny, has about it an acre of land.
chat spells actual economic independ-
ence. That carries with it a ~resourc
which means a livelihood. a clean.
moral atmosphere for the children,
wholesome outdoor work. and a
healthy, strong, independent second
generation of the best class of men
and women
There is not a w-orkingman in Lake
county. who has a job. who cannot to-
Gay afford to buy an acre of ground
within a five to ten-minute walk of the
present street car lines. In two years,

Elections may come and elections
may go, but the church go or forever.
Such seems to be the implication by
a glance cast over todays building
page" so far as Indiana Harbor is con-
cerned.
AS a matter of fact, the coming cleo
ton has cast a damper over all other
real estate and building activity for
the nonce, not only here but through
out the Calumet region and in fact
throughout the Calumet region and in
fact throughout the state.
Not so as regards the churches. They
are buster than ever apparently oblivi-
Gus of the fact that 1t is wal to the
knife between the different parties in
volved in the campaign now at issue.
1t has therefore came to pass that
while building in other lines is as dead
as a door nail, when even the billiard
and pool tournament proposed by the
East Chicago died of inanition and a
to be postponed until after the cleo
ton, two church have merrily started
in to dig for their foundations and a
third has raised $4,000 to pay off its
indebtedness.
1t is whispered however that i'm
mediately after election at least three
big deals will be brought to a clost,
which are hanging fire now awaiting
the issue of the election. and these
three deals it is declared are sufficient
to set the real estate market on its
feet again most effectually.
