HOW WOULD IT DO9

The French government has enter
ed into an agreement to pay Mulai
Hafd $1,000 a year as long as he
ex-sultan of Morocco.
Good idea for the Gary govern
ment. Mayor Knots and his Chicago
contractor friends might hire Ex-
Alderman Batt1eaxe Castleman to
fight his ambitions until the town is
we'll paved and severed. We believe
that for $1,000 a year Battleaxe
would be willing to pass up his am
bition to become mayor, thereby
keeping the control of the contract
letting machinery in the present
proper and efficient hands.

Society should aid rather than
punish this unfortunate woman.
Even If she, driven TO desperation,
had sold herself to support her
self and child, she would not have
been looked down upon. But she did
not do this.
There is much of a parallel in
LLAMA Reidan's case in Famine. the
betrayed girl, and her child, Cosette,
in Les Miserables." Famine first
sold her hair. then her beautiful
teeth and finally-herself--for her
child. LLAMA Reidan's mother-love
was probably as great; and distract
ed in mind and starving on body she
put the little one out of misery.

A WORTHY PROJECT.

There is just one man in Lake
county who links the present period
of remarkable industrial expansion
with the early days when the county
was solely an agricultural COM
munity.
That man is Rev. T. H. Ball of
Crown Point, now at the venerable
old age of Sc. Because this man
made the history of Lake county his
hobby its early history is preserved
in a number of his writings.
Rev. Ball has been more than a
historian he has been a real influence
in the community whose journal he
has kept. For half a century he has
been a wholesome influence In the
community in which he lived.
Recognizing his service to the
county John Brown, Oscar Dinwiddie
and Judge Johannes Kopelke have
authorized the collection Of g sub
scription which is expected to be
large enough to take Rev. Ball to
warmer southland this winter and
which should also be ample for his
personal needs the rest of his life.
This is a worthy project and
should receive the support of every
body who can spare a little money
for a good cause. The funds should
be SEN to the T. H. Ball fund in care
of the First National Bank, Crown
Point, Ind.
Rev. Ball will probably never re-
