HAMMOND PEOPLE
GO IN DROvES
People Aviation Mad and
Hundreds See the Bird
Men Yesterday.

Hammond is aviation crazy. It is
estimated that at least 500 Hammond
people went to Chicago yesterday for
the purpose of seeing the aeroplanes in
action.
Today aviation talk is all tn rage.
You hear people talk of banking, mono
planes, biplanes, hangers. etc Those
who have not already seen the con-
querers of the air expect to go to Chica-
go for the purpose before the week is
ended.
Chicago is greatly excited over the
meet, and it is estimated that 100000
people witnessed the events. The crowds
alone are worth the trip to Chicago.
So far there have been no serious ac-
cidnts. Records have been broken. and
it is expected that other records will go
to smash before the week is over.

court may be had from the fact that
so far this year there have been $50
cases filed in the Lake superior court
while there were only S22 cases filed

duties to his fellow citizens which
every decent man ought to UNDER
take. We don't have TO come in d.
