SCHOOL EXHIBITS
PLEASE The PATRONS
Wallace School in Standard
District Shows Progress
of Foreign Children.

Please. do say something nice in
your paper this evening about the ex-
hibit in the school,"
Such requests came to THE TIMES
office today over the telephone from the
various school centers in Hammond
each of the enthusiastic patrons urging
that they had the very best exhibition
in the city. In as much as THE TIMES
is rot the Judge IN the matter it would
not be right to give any school any
more credit than another. 1t may be
presumed however that all the other
school centers Will be generous enough
to permit special mention to the Wal
lace school in the southeast part of the
town where the children from the
Standard Steel Car district gather
Their exhibit is not only on a par with
those in the other schools, but the
work is by children whose parents are
foreigners
Possibly fifteen hundred people saw
the various exhibits in the Hammond
schools yesterday afternoon and even
ing. and many more hundreds saw the
work this afternoon. The people have
judged themselves about the merit OF
the work that is being done in the
Hammond public schools. It was to be
expected that good work might be ex-
pected in an exhibit. but no one was
prepared for the excellent work tha;
has been on display. The exhibition
will undoub btedly do much TO make the
people of Hammond realize the value
OF their schools and the system that is
being used

KENNEL
IS MUCH
WISER NOW

William Kennel of Gary was fined
s25 for contempt of court by Judge
Virgil S. Reiter of the Lake superior
court in Hammond. Judgment against
Kennel and Morris n. Castleman had
ben secured in a mechanics lien case
and later the defendants were enjoined
from moving the building from the lot.
After the notice that the Injunction
had issued had been served Kennel
continued to move the building. The
fact was brought to the attention of
the court and kennel was arrested and
brought before the court.
Judge Reiter explained that it was
necessary at all times for the orders
of the court to be followed out and
that the defiance of the orders of the
court is a serious offense.
The fact was developed that Kennel
did not fully appreciate the serious ma
ture of the writ of Injunction and con-
seouently a minimum fine was as

Week.

At last the dates have been set for
moving day in the Taper building. The

new part.
The old stairway win be used while
the new one is being constructed and
hole will be cut through the brick
wall dividing the two parts of the
building so that access may be had to
the new part.
The work of tearing out the old
building will then begin. With the
office tenants located in the new part
it is expected that the work on the

at any stage of the construction
The Citizens German National bank
will move from the temporary quar-
ters in Kolb's drug store to its mag
nificent new quarters in the corner of
the building April Is.

This will enable Kolb to move his
fixtures over to the north side of the
store and will make it possible to erect
a temporary partition in front of the
south wall of the building so that the
old wall separating the new and old
buildings can be removed and the stair
way constructed.
However, with the moving of the ten
ants in the offices and the occupation
of the new bank room by the Citizens
German National bank matters will be
greatly simp1ified and the work will
move faster.
The new University club quarters are
nearing completion, excepting the bal

TEXT OF
THE LETTER
Does Not Wish to Influence
the State Convention as
to It's Platform.

Washington, April 1.-Represen-
tative Edgar D. Crumpacker made
public today letter which he has
received from President Taft compli-
menting the Tenth District Republi-
cans on the work of their recent dis
trict convention.
The President in the letter makes
special mention of the action taken
with references to the tariff law and
expresses his qualification over the
resolution adopted by the convention
on that subject.
DOES NOT WISH TO INFLUENCE.
1t is understood the president In
tended at one time to set forth his
views on the tariff more at length In
his letter to Judge Crumpacker. That
he did not do SO, but contented him
self with a brief Endorsement OF the
action of the Tenth district on the sub
! ject is construed to mean that he
/ wished to avoid doing anything that
might be interpreted as an attempt to
influence the republican state conven-
jtfon. which wit he held at indianapolis
next Tuesday.
The letter to the Indiana representa-
| tive, it is explained, is really a COM
munication from the president to the
Tenth district and is intended to have
! no bearing on the state convention.
If there is one decision upon which
the president is especially firm and to

ARB0R DAY
OBSERVED IN
HAMMOND
School Authorities Will Aid
in Movement That Is Ex-
pected to Result in Much
Good for Beautifying the
City in Future.

AS result of THE TINES suggestion
that Arbor day could be profitably OBJ
served in the public schools by setting
aside a whole day when the care and
planting of trees could be taken up.
plans are now on foot to make April
% the greatest Arbor day that Ham
mond has ever known
1t is proposed to enlist the services
Of as many authorities on forestry
as possible and have them give talks
to the children in the grades and In
the high school the planting of
trees. 1t is possible that some authori-
ty on forestry from the University of
Chicago will be induced to come to
Hammond and make a number of talks
to the school children. 1t has been
suggested that a public meeting may
be held in the evening at which the
subject will be thoroughly discussed
from an expert forester and also the
citizens point of view.
1t is probable that the morning ses-
sion in the schools will be devoted to
an exposition of the advantages of tree
planting. and in the afternoon the
school children in all grades will par
ticipate in the actual planting of trees
in order to learn how it should be done
Mcdaniel Favors Plan.
Superintendent Mcdaniel is very en-
thusiastic over the matter. He is Of
the opinion that if the days activities
resulted in the planting of only 50t
trees the city beautiful would re-
ceive a decided boost and the appear
ance of Hammond would be greatly
| changed in ten years.
Superintendent Mcdaniel has a plan
not thoroughly developed as yet, tha
| will encourage the planting of flower;
about hundreds of Hammond homes.
| The necessity for the dissemination
of information about trees and of ere
/ ating an appreciation of the value o
/ trees tas an asset to the city is showl
| by the experience of w. B. Conkey.
! Mr.. Conkey has had cause to maxi
complaint against vandals who eithe
purposely or thoughtlessly cut tree
] with jackknives. This has resulted il
! the serious injury to several beautiful
! trees in Conkeys park. If wide
spread sentiment regarding the neces
| sity of trees had been created thi
| injury would never have been done.

Hammond friends of Henry Nauman.

rather surprised to learn that he is not

recently to one of the best known
young ladies In Sheffield. Ia. where he
is the foreman of the Federal Cement

April First Holiday.

April 1st will be something of a holi-
day for the painters in Hammond for
the reason that the new scale will go
into effect. The painters will get a
raise of six and a half cents an hour.
They are raised from so to 561z cents an
hour, or from s. to $3.50 day.
So far as can be learned this is the
only increase in wages that takes eff
feet this spring. However, the cost of
building has now increased to such an
extent that building is almost prohibit
tive. This accounts for the fact that
no further increases are announced.

borites on That Day.
Especial to THE TIMEs.)

Indiana Harbor, April 1.-Prepara-
tions are already under way for the
county republican convention which
is to take place here April 8. Indiana
Harbor is desirous of making record
for itself, this being the first event
of the kind that has ever taken place
here and no pains will be spared to
carry out the big undertaking with
an elaborateness of detail that will
make the county sit up and take
notice.
Indiana Harbor has a bunch of live
business men who propose to do their
share in making the occasion one to
be remembered. The convention will
of course bring many strangers to
the Harbor and in order to make the
city as attractive as possible, mer-
chants and other business men intend
teAdecerate their stores and offices in
a fashion appropriate to the occasion.
These men realize that there is moth
ing that speaks more or the enterprise
and public spirit of community, than
attractive decorations and Judging from
report, they intend to demonstrate that
they are not lacking these qualities

CLOSES
BIG DEAL

The F. S. Betz CO. of this city today
closed a deal whereby 1t takes over
the Nolde Dental company of st. Louis.
The deal involved $4,000.
The Nolde Dental company of st.
Louis was recognized as one of the
largest in the west, but was small
compared to the local company. AS
result of the deal the entire market
for dental supplies will be affected. as
the Betz people will undoubtedly re-
duce the price on the Nolde goods.
For some time F. S. Betz has
consistently eliminated some of his
smaller competitors, and as a result the
market has benefited because of the
lower rate that the Betz company could
make.

Today is the day when the unfettered
small boy may play all the pranks he
likes and get away with it. Today is

All of the old gags are being worked.
The brick under the hat, the pocket

glued to the counter and all of the
pranks that are employed by the small
boy are brought into use today.
