prove this street as far south as the
Shrum road, but 1t seems that some
of the property owners are Directing.
In the opinion of many people the
usefulness OF State Line street will
not become apparent until the street
is paved and opened for traffic all of
the way from Plummer avenue to the
Sbrum road.
When this newspaper made the plea
for the opening of the street it pointed
out that the property owners along the
street would note an increase in realty
values which result from creating a
thoroughfare of the state line
When the West Ctate street prop
erty owners objected to the assess
ment of their property for the pur
pose of paying for some of the con
demned property these objections
were quieted by pointing out that the
opening and paving of State Line
street would increase the activity on
West State street and would help bus
mess there.
The point is that the great expense
of opening of this street will avail
nothing to those who have had to pay
the expense of it unless the street is
paved all of the way through to one
of the intersecting country roads.
This matter should be taken up by
the interested property owners a,
once and they should insist that the
street be paved to a uniform width al
of the way through to the macadan
road which now runs south to Lans
ing.
It may not be feasible for the city O,
Hammond and the village of Yves,
Hammond to pave the street any far
Their south than Carroll street. blu,
the townships on either side of the
line should each contribute twenty
foot pavement to this street for the
rest of the distance
The Importance of doing this work
cannot be over-estimated.

THAT Y. M. c. A. EPISODE.

The Rev. Trimble of Gary, he of
sensational pulpiteering methods, not
having been in the limelight for these
many moons, since he tried to lure
sinners TO church via the police patrol
route, took serious exceptions TO one
of Sol. Smith Russell's monologues de-
Hyered in the Gary Y. NJ. c. A. on
Sunday and thereby made himself alb
solutely ridiculous.
We suppose if Rev. Trimble had
heard Rev Billy Billy Sunday, or
Rev Oliver, or any one of the other
vulgar and sensational speakers get
up before that fine body of young men
and deliver one of his customary IT,
rades in billingsgate, such as wouid
not have been tolerated in any decent
saloon, Mr.. Trimble would have
clapped his hands and cried encore .
There never was a cleaner man than
Sol Smith Russell. There never was
man. woman or child who heard and
Smith Russell, who did not come away
all the better for it. He was one of
natures nobleman. He did the world
far more good, did religion far more
good than any two of the ranting
revivalists strutting before the pub
lie for what dollars they can get out
OF it.
The officials of the Gary Y. NJ G. A,
never need fear for moment that
the great body of those who deal with
young men will ever criticise Sol.
Smith Russellism even thought it
may be given on Sunday.
II the churches of the country would
get up Sunday afternoon programs
like that given in the Gary Y M c.
A. they would attract young men TO
the sacred edifices and do a power OF
good.
The Rev. TrimbIe is barking up the
wrong tree again.

STATE LINE STREET.

The whole campaign for the opening
of State Line street, a project which

was based on the theory that the ter

care OF the rapidly increasing traffic
between the country districts and the
Holman street business district of the
city.
