She has made herself Indispensable
Whether this is for the eternal
benefit Of the race or not is an open
question, but the fact remaining that
the business woman has made good.
Undoubtedly shorthand and type
writing are the leading avenues to
success in the lives of business wom-
en-.
The career of the young woman
who takes up stenography as a pro-
fession is pleasant and a profitable
one.
If she is young person of good
common school education and special
ability in shorthand and typewriting.
her success is assured from the very
| day she goes to seek a position for
he will begin by doing the regular
lstenographic work of the office, and
finally, if her work is acceptable, she
will become the head stenographer,
doing the managers private work.
What is true of the young woman
is even more true of the young man,
for many of the choicest positions In
the business world for young men
are open to those who understand
shorthand and typewriting. Private
secretaries, court reporters, civil
lservice stenographers. newspaper men
and young men of all kinds may gel
a splendid start in business through
Istenography.
The brains of a business man flow
through the fingers of the stenog
rahphers. There are few business
plans with which the man or woman
with the pencil is not made familiar
The pathway to knowledge of any
business lies so straight before the
Iwriter of the firms letters that {
failure to see the path and walk in Il
is the fault OF the stenographer him
lself.

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

The Hammond Chamber of Com
merce approaches the conclusion of
it's first year of civic activity in Ham
mond and looks back on a record OF
which it may we'll be proud.
The inactivity that was the chief
characteristic of the old Hammond
Business Mems Association was re.
placed by conspicuous activity. Meet
| ings of the board of directors, COM
prising some of the biggest men oil
the community, were held regularly
General meetings were held when
ever the occasion warranted it.
The deliberations of the directors
Of this body have always been digni-
fed and free from even the suspicion
of clique control. No interests have
swayed or sought to control the YER
dict of this body.
/ The verdict of the Hammond
Chamber of Commerce on matters o.
public policy has been accepted a.
the verdict of the people of this com
munity. It has been suggested with
out the suspicion of a faint.
The progressiveness of the organi
cation is shown by the fact that aftel
Ionly a few months of activity it ac
Iquired for it's uses the finest clul
rooms in the city of Hammond.
:. The activity of the committees un
, der the faithful leadership of Presi
dent Virgil S. Reiter of the organi

. few exceptions these committees hav
/ done the work that was assigned t
!. lthem. Nothing could better indicat

1t is a matter of observation that the
incidence of the various infeetive
diseases of childhood Immediately in
creases on the opening of the schools
in the fall on account of the increas-
ed opportunity for contact between
infested and non-infected children.
1t may therefore be reasonably as
sumed that the close contact in the
moving picture theater is also a fac
tor in the distribution of infectious
diseases. Since 1t is not easy to ex-
clude those who have diseases or who
come from homes where disease
exists, well-considered regulations az
to ventilation and sanitation should
be enforced for the protection of tbs
public.

A YEAR OLD PROPHECY.

Work on the Baldwin plant at
Calumet is to start right away.
There is no doubt about it; NO
question about it. The plant is to be
built forthwith.
Now let the croakers in the bull
frog chorus and the acknowledgements
the knockers and the pessimists cease
their lamentations
Let them take a day off and rest
up little. Their tongues have
wagged until, spitless and cracked
they Glove to the roofs of thei:
mouths.
Let everybody cheer up a little
Kindly remember the editorial warn.
ing given in these columns the day
after the announcement of the com
ing of the plant was given over &
year ago to this effect:
THE BALDWIN PLANT WILL
BE BUILT, JUST AS SOON AS
BUSINESS COMES TO WARRANT
ITS CONSTRUCTION AND NOT
BEFORE. GO SLOWr'
The business is here, the plant i
to be built right away.
Again we say cheer up.

WOMEN NOW INDISPENSABLE

The success of young women in
office work is no longer a question,
they have made good. They are
wanted.
There is nothing new in this. They
have wanted, and have been employ
ed in increasing numbers for over a
generation.
But there is something new in the
Notwithstanding startling that
only recent years have developed.
This is that the business world today
cannot get along without them.
If woman should quit business in
body, today great enterprises would
be crippled, many of them temporari-
ly ruined. There would be nobody to
write the majority of business letters
and the bookkeeping force of many
establishments would suffer severely
The young woman has more than
won her place in the bushes world

things this town clings to, the fire

half the time the calls are false Or
near false ones, is past finding out
In larger and more progressive cities
everything possible is done to keep

And sing to hearts as we watch

Your fairy building grow.

VOICE OF
--znA TIE -Anz,.
p E p l. e
bull MOOSE PARTY

Bull MOOSE PARTY
NOT PERMANENT
To Editor TIMES:
Sir-In reply to my newspaper let
tiers various persons have written me.
some stating that Bull Moosers will
never cooperate with the Republican
party. 1t seems to me these friends
have not fully considered the following
three facts:
1. Bull Mooseism was not born to
kill the Republican party. but to save
it. to redeem 1t from standpattism, re-
dictionary ideals. boss rule, and to
make the party's machinery responsive
to the progressiveness of the rank and
file of Republicans. But starting new
party and permanently drawing part
of the Progressives out of the old Re-
publican party would have merely the
effect of giving the standpatters more
influence than before. Every act to-
ward starting a permanent new party
violates the wishes and intentions OF
the original Bull Moose movement
2. The figures show that the Bull
Moosers rejected the third party plan
last November. Omitting the southern
strictly Democratic states, and consid
ering the Republican states, where two
tickets were nominated. we find that
Indiana was the one lone state where
Bull Mooseism as a party ticket de-
feated the Republican party ticket.
Outside Indiana the Republican party
elected Governors in thirteen states.
The Bull Moose party nominated
eighteen governorship candidates, but
elected none, running behind Republic
cans in al states but Indiana. The Re-
publican party carried the legislatures
in twenty states, the Bull Moose party
carrying not a single legislature. In
fourteen more states the Republicans
elected LIS members of legislatures,
the Bull Moose party only 1SS. In the
house of representatives, Republicans
elected 129 members, Bull Moosers only
more or less afiliating with their eau
Gus. In the senate the Republicans
have elected and reelected thirteen
new senators, Bull Moosers not one, but
lost two. Dixon and Bourne.
3. There has been no flood of Access
sions to the Bull Moose party as per-
manent party since last November The
l1913 spring elections show in St. Louis
| a Republican elected mayor. while the
Bull Moose vote falls from 24.74s to
4,611 Roosevelt's 10000 majority in
Chicago disappears. Republicans beat
ling Bull Moosers NEARLY three to one
| In Michigan state electiosn Republicans
have 10000 majority. Progressive Re-
pu bli canism is the future outlook.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY WISDOM

We clip this bit OF wisdom, from
the pen of the Waynetown cores
pendent, which was printed in the
Charlottesville Journal:
I'VE may be an old fogy, but we
make a struggle to keep in sight.
There are number of cases where
the surgeons knife is the only
chance to save life. but the bust
ness of rushing every victim to the
block whose case the doctor can
not reach with a dose of caIomel
will be a most unpopular business
five years hence. or our horoscope
has not been properly adjusted"

we refer the item to the Lake County
Medical society for contemplation.

payment periods, which may be an
nual, in larger business concerns semi

real estate traffic, monthly. The amount
Of each payment is readily determi-
