FAMOUS Moses Bull, Loyal order

a nightmare Monday night thinking
about what they might have said but
didn't say to the voters.
NJ l. SUGGESTS that there is some
thing to this Tom B. Dean being in the
steam heating plant business. He is
certainly making it warm for some
Gary folks.
THEY have two terms for lot Of
our county Offices and no third terms
are allowed Uncle Sam might get
some good White House pointers down

YOU can always depend on Gary to
have an exciting election day. If there
aren't some heads broken there is al
ways some scandal creeping out OF the
dark spots.
AMONG those who went to bed early
last night and who didn't give con-
tinental how things went was our old
friend, Willum Jennings Bryan.
IT is only after election that the
fellow who got eiated over straw votes
begins to figure that straw is the whole
basis of their existence
THIS little Tommy Marshall Ger
tainly is revengeful gentlemen. He
evidently didn't forget Mayor Knots

THE reason that a lot Of these bach

ure that one pair of cold feet is enough

all of the tainted money ready to go
down to Washington to be Numbered.
the lid pops off Gary couldn't stay
quiet for two months # it wanted to.
NOW that tile election IS all over
with we might add that one Of the
things that got our goat was the action
OF some Of the Chicago newspapers,
especially the braying Tribune, trying
to run marked ballot samples 10 show

a lot Of these state campaign managers

LET US SHOW THEM.

1t Is time now to doff the political
garb and settle down to business.
The country has been disturbed for
months with the quadrennial disturb
ance known as a presidential election
The democratic party flushed with It's
victory promises US great things and
the nation extends its sincerest
prayer that having come back in de-
cisive fashion, it will take advantage
Of its opportunities. It has been the
custom OF the democratic party 20
accept defeat philosopically take or
its fighting toys and get ready for the
next battle and the republicans can
do no less than to follow a very good
example. It is up to the republicans
to show that they can be just as good
losers as the democrats and give an
outstretched hand of congratulation
and goodfellowship.
We are all neighbors and brothers
so let US dwell IN peace. There are
other things In this good old world
of ours besides politics.

TOO BAD. TOO BAD.

Here just when we thought that
great moral wave was sweeping over
Gary up hobs this Moose confession
with some very sordid trails. Virtue
had recently attained such a state in
Gary that the very aldermen demand
ed that no more JOY rides be taken
In the city automobile. Dog Face
Charley" and Diamond Bill were sent
into Punishment and it was even pro-
posed that there be honest scales and
peck measures Folks. like in good
King Alfred's time could leave few
pounds OF coal on the sidewalk at
night and rest assured that it would
be there when they got UP in the
morning
Even the school board got so honest
that some of the trustees never let
more than $1,000 mere dribble- =
leak out at time and that honest
paragon of virtue. the Illinois I'M
provement and Ballast company be-
came so sweet and patriotic that it
leaped over the fences at the steel
plant and insisted on doing its share
Of the public improvements by taking
a S235. 600 Job for $4,000; and like
some Of the school trustees, no one
even offered it a leather medal for
Drawing the possible wrath of a grand
jury
It's but to weep over the dark
clouds that have drifted with the
| November breezes.

THE Y. M. C. A. MOVEMENT.

The Hammond Athletic Association
was Hammond's most recent expert
ment in plan to provide recreation
and entertainment for It's young men
The experiment was worth while for
the reason that it proved the necessi-
ty for such an institution in Ham
mond
It failed for the want of proper
supervision. The athletic feature
lead to boxing, boxing lead to prize
fighting and then prize fight pro-
motors, who thought they saw a good
thing in the sport, took charge of the
club.
The result was the organization got
a bad name. Young men who valued
their regulations and were somewhat
discriminating in the selection of
their associates would not patronize
1t.
The financial collapse followed.
The failure Of this institution may
not be attributed to a lack OF mem
bers but to encouragement and poor
business practices.
It is now proposed to establish
Young Men $ Christian Association in
Hammond. There are points Of wide
difference in the management of a Y
NJ. c. A. and the old Hammond Ath-
letic Association.
In the first place Hammond will not
have Y. NJ c. A. unless 1t puts up
the money with which to build and
equip one Not part Of the money;
but all of H. After 1t is built it is
merely a matter of maintenance That
is why Y NJ C. AS do not fail now
days
And the club and gymnasium
facilities of the association will be
open to all who agree to abide by the
rules of the organization. These re-
quire only that man be a gentle
man. The dining room facilities of
the Gary association are highly
valued by the members.
The Y. NJ. G. A. is probably the
most liberal of all Christian institu-
tions. Boxing is encouraged under
the supervision of the athletic in
structor. billiards. and pool are Install
ed; there IS bowling and usually a
swimming pool
Among educational lines a great
deal is done. Lectures are givne free
to members, entertainments are pro
vided. night schools afford day work
ers an opportunity to get an educa-
ton and there are scores of other &C
tivities that make the association
valuable to it's membership
Within few weeks the state or.
ganization will hold its annual meet
ing in Hammond. The purpose o.
: this meeting is to educate the people
of this community in the work that Ii
being carried on in a sensible practi
! cal way by these associations.
After that 1t is expected that
: campaign for contributions for ;

. will be done If there is a prospect 70
success. And If Hammond shows tn
e proper spirit it too will be classet

Love.

The poets have been trying to tell
us what love is for 1000 years, but
they ave made such n hash of it that
even today thousands of people can't
tell the difference between love and q
business opportunity until after they
are married.
Love is a peculiarly squashy condi-
ton of the head produced by an appe-
title in tho heart. 1t is a grand thing
for the heart, enlarging it to many
times it's former capacity. but what ii
does to the mind is mournful to con-
template. Under the influence OF love.
we see 50 a week clerks buying IS
punches of ~violets, strong and fearless
young athletes weeping great pearly
tears. because the letter carrier didn't
produce a pink note and wei! education
young women regarding Apollo.
Shakespeare and Daniel Webster as
mere trash. compared with the
magnificent young football players Or
necktie statesmen who call at their
homes each evening.
Love blinds the eyes, warps the
Judgment. spoils the taste. increases
sting out of misfortune. softens the
disposition, makes hard work worth
while and fills the land with happy and
often crowded homes.
Love is an internally. r%idiculosly and
painfully magnificent thing. 1t is a
