TgONTE MISSIONS IN SUNDAY SCHOOLS.

Dcar DADDY Tim. It has been long while
since have written to the dear Brotherhood, but
this morning I feel that nv heart is full OF love
ard blindness, and would like to say few things
to q1 TIE members of the S. S. B. In regard
to tic home mission in the Sunday school,
would like TO saw tFat every community ought 10
have Sunday School for the up-bu1ld1ng or that
conan,rnitv We have a small Sunday School IN
orr community. A few Sundays ago. onr super
ntendent said that we had good people IN th1s
school as could be found anywhere, ard wanted
to know why we could net do some home MISSION
work The reople seemed to be we'll pleased with
the proposition and voted in favor OF IT, so we
have already begun our home mission WORK IN TIE
Sunday School If you have a Sunday School IN
vonr community Were there are needy ones, ask
them to help in the home mission work. All OF
you who have such an Organization IN your sun
day School write to The Jeff about IT, By THIS
means ether communities will learn OF THIS noD 9
work and take it IN, We appointed two girls 10
collect the contributions and each month these
cOr+rih,-tions sent to those in most needy
c-~o-,r47 stances. The Lord will bless Sunday
School that is doing such charitable work, and it
will not be lone before the enrNllment will be
greatly increased May God bless the poor. Yours

old SOL STARTS
MUTINY IN CLUB
Headed by Captain Norton
Members Come Near
Scuttling the Ship.

Even after he went to bed Old Sol
got in his good work last evening and
started a mutiny in the Gary CONNER
cial club.
The ringleader was no other than
President II. S. Norton.
Pursuant to their regular custom the
members of the club gathered at the
Gary hotel last night for their regular
meeting.
But no one went inside.
1t was too hot.
Everybody rebelled and the officers
headed the rebellion. So instead of
holding the meeting the members sat
on the hotel veranda discussing cool
things.
1t is probable that the president may
issue a call for a special meeting. But
1T will not be on a hot night.
Old Sol will have to walk the plank
Next week will witness the formal
opening of the Commercial club. The
festivities will occupy two days.

HOT WEATHER
HURTS BUSINESS

The hot weather brought business to
practically a standstill during the past
week. Only absolute necessities were
purchased in the stores and shopping
was avoided.
1t is expected that return of mode
rate weather will result in great in
crease of business for the merchants
The dealers in soft drinks have been
the only ones to reap a harvest. Tons
of ice cream have been sold in the past
two weeks.
Some of the factories over the city
were practically compelled to suspend
operations. The heat was so oppres-
sive that 1T was dan gerous for the en-
pIoyes to exert themselves.
1t Is expected that IL the weather
continues to moderate that by next
week normal conditions will be re-
stored in the city.

NO ACTION ON
STEEL DIVIDEND

New York, July THE directors of
the American steel Foundries company
took no action today upon the regular
quarterly dividend of l u per cent
Secretary Patterson made the following
statement:
"on May IA. 1910, the first quarterly
dividend of / "A per cent was paid on
the readjusted corporate capital stock
of the company. subsequently quarterly
dividends were paid up to and includ-
ing May Is, of this year, making five
in all When dividends were begun
your board of directors hoped and ex-
pected the business and earnings of the
company would be such as to warrant
continued and uninterrupted payments,
but as everyone knows within the past
year the railroads OF the country have
purchased very little equipment with
the result that after filling contracts In
hand the first of the year your company
has been obliged largely to curtail its
operations. AS consequence dividends
must be discontinued until conditions
improve. The company, its organiza-
ton and all its plants are in splendid
condition to take advantage Of any i'm
provement in business"

SHOWER HELPS
A LITTLE BIT

The shower of last night came as a
welcome relief TO the thousands Of pee
pie who were suffering from the heat
in the cities of Lake county. TIE
shower was followed by reduction Of
temperature that afforded considera BILE
relief.
However, the humidity was so great
that what temperature there was
proved TO be doubly oppressive. 1t Is
expected that there will be further re-
auctions of temperature that will re-
1ieve the situation.
The rains will be welcome to the
farmers in the county. While no
drought prevailed the rain will help
the crops considerably. 1t seems that
showers were general over Lake and
Porter counties.
