HOW D Yf

NOONAN?

Do you know what an aqua-aero-
drome is? Well, Wolf lake Is one. An
aqua -aerodrome is place where
hydro -aeroplanes disport themselves
And there are number of hydro-a aero
planes today disporting themselves
about Wolf lake.
And Wolf lake is one of the best
aqua-aerodrome in the country. Why?
Because it has large surfaces of
smooth water upon which the hydro
aeroplanes may glide and yet the wat
er is not deep enough in many places
to drown the aero-aquiator.
John Noonan is going to aviate and
aquiate little at Wolf lake tomor-
row. That is. he has had his heart
tested and found all right and the
aviators have promised to take him
up.
1t appears that a man by the name
of ellison has invented new hydro
aeropIane which he is trying out at

He has pitched a big tent which he
uses as a hangar and claims to have

The Gary & Southern railroad is
about to invade Hammond. 1t is today
asking franchise from the Lake coun-
ty commissioners from the point at
Forty-third avenue to the Ridge road
and thence to Hammond, where the
line expects to come into Hammond
over Columbia avenue
With the Gary & Southern the sit
uation is similar to that of the Gary
Interurban. The companies seek
to get the necessary franchises before
the new public utilities bill goes into
effect
After this bill goes into effect it will
be impossible to speculate in fran
chises or to engage in any promotion
enterprises except on the restricted
lines laid down in the bill.
The action of the Gary & Southern
is not a surprise as it was forecasted
in an interview with John Brown.
which was published in THE TINES a
month or ago.
The Gary & Southern also asks that
1t be given a franchise from Crown
Point to Cedar Lake. Both of these
matters are under consideration by the
commissioners.
The commissioners are out in auto
mobiles today making an investigation
of the route of the proposed line with
the idea of determining whether or not
it would be advisable to grant the
franchise.

WHAT p. M. G. THIrKs.

The postmaster general believes
postmasters should be professional
class trained in their duties and devot-
ed to the service as a life work. He
thinks a postmaster should not be re-
stricted to one locality, but should be
promoted from the smaller to larger
communities. according to ability dis
played.
The postmaster general has decided
to subject all fourth class postmasters
to civil service test. Those who pass
1T will be retained and those who do
not will be removed. This examination
will be open to outsiders also and an
eligible list of fourth class postmasters
will be established.
PLANS BIG EXPERIMENT.
1t is Mr.. Burleson's intention In the
appointment of fourth class post
masters to experiment with tho propo-
sition of ignoring geographical consid-
erations. Wherever a vacancy occurs
the man at the top OF the eligible list
win be appointed. regardless of the fact
that he does not reside In the COM
munity affected.
II this scheme works we'll Mr.. Buyle-
son will ask congress to enact legisla-
tion placing the first, second. and third
class postmasters under similar civil
service regulations. and subject to as
signment without regard to locality.
