FINDING TIME TO BOOST.

Who breaches the spirit OF optim-
ism-the occupants of the pulpits?
No, The newspapers. Where is the
newspaper editor who is not at one
time or another breathing cheeriness
and radiating optimism?
Who boosts like the newspaper
man? No matter how many things
go wrong in newspaper office and
the good Lord only knows that some
thing is always going wrong the
newspaper finds time to boost 1t is
just as the South Chicago Calumet
says:
This Is the key note of optimism
which is an old fashioned word for
boosting. 1t means looking at the
bright seide Of things. When we say
let's be boosters we mean. why not
take our part in keeping that bright
side shined up, so that the next fell
low along viii have lighter path to
travel, and while we are shining her
up. maybe we ourselves win get a bet
ter light before the other fellow
comes
And after all why not? Life s.
short and what there is Of it worth
the while. is 50 wrapped up in what
our fellows are doing. that none of us
is so big, so strong, so wise. so rich,
so great, he can even live his own
life. alone and without dependence
upon his fellow kind The good we
have is only excellent when it is
shared, and the bad we suffer IS
atomized when our friends rescue us
of part Today. in life, is the time
for our divisions of joys and sorrows
and the flowers on the grave. can't
give the comfort OF the CHEEKY word
spoken among the quick
Wherefore. then put by the pres
ent, and leave our happiness to =
chance in the mystic to-come?
Today, together, with strong
hand for the weak, and a kind word
for the slow, with a strong pull for
the heavy load, and gay push on tho
easy grades: that's the spirit of 1912
and the true inwardness Of why We

ABIBRIDGE.

Ambridge is the new steel COM
munity in the northwest part of Gary
on the Grand Calumet and near the
old town Of Clarke station.
It came into being in 1911 when
the steel corporation transformed a
wilderness of sand dunes and scrub
oaks into a pretty suburb OF 800
homes, improved streets and shade
trees adjacent to the American
Bridge plant which employees 1900
men.

Ambridge with the down town part

OPEN FORSYTH AVENUE.

East Chicago has grievance
against Hammond. There is no ques-
ton about it Hammond permitted
the building of the Gibson yards
right across Forsyth avenue without
providing an adequate outlet
The result is that the only north
and south street that East Chicago
has practically ends at the Gibson
Yards The subway hump does not
amount to anything 1t is to devious
d passage TO permit Of free and un-
restricted traffic
Now it is apparent to eve-y one who
studies the map Of East Chicago that
that city will have an outlet to the
mouth. Between Columbia avenue
and Kennedy avenue. a distance OF
two miles there is not single
thoroughfare excepting only Forsyth
avenue
There are two distractions across
Forsythe avenue. one is the Gibson
hump yards mentioned above. and
the other is the service yards of the
Standard Steel Car Company.
Both Of these Instructions must DC
overcome before this street viii ia
the proper outlet to the south. II
these distractions are overcome by
adequate viaducts or subways. which
ever is deemed advisable. Forsyth
avenue viii become the most import
ant north and south street in Easf
Chicago.
Kennedy avenue has too many
railroad crossings and too mucf
frontage taken up with factory site.
to make il q really great street. Now
for the purpose Of developing Forsyth
avenue into the street that its i'm
portance in East Chicago merits stop
should be taken at once to have i
opened through the Standard plan
and the Gibson Yards.
This could be done before obstruc
tions are built across its south end
1t should be opened and then its in
tegrity as a street held inviolate
The city of Hammond should max
amends by cooperating with the cit
OF East Chicago in this matter
Here is another chance for real ciC
building similar to that which is TAX
ing place on Calumet avenue.
