MOTOR CLUB DOES
BIT or GOOD WORK

Directors of the East Chicago Motor
club held a knockers party last night
at the home of w. ]. Funkey. Jr., on
Beacon street. This organization here
tofore has held the reputation of being
a bunch of boosters but last night they
had their hammers right with them
and they took advantage of the oppor-
tunity and used them with might and
main.
How they did hammer They made
noise enough for half dozen carpenter
shops. And they were real, honest-to-
goodness knocks. too.
1t will surprise our readers TO know
that the men who so side-stepped their
usual tendencies and vocations included
the president OF the Chamber of Com
merce, w. ]. Funkey: its secretary. f. L.
Evans. w. e. Jewell. man especially
active in obtaining large Red Cross
war fund in Indiana Harbor; and such
other loyal citizens as W. r. Diamond.
DR.. C. w. Miller. DR.. Edw Jacobs and
H E. Jackson.
In Justice. however it may be said
that the knocks werv constructive ones
and perhaps they coulo not be severely
criticised
For some time the motor club has had
on hand about zoo small location signs
pointing the direction to East Chicago.
These were purchased to be put up
north. east, south and west to direct
tourists onto the best roads leading into
the city. The meeting last night was
really bee to mount these signs and
put them in shape to post. Each man
took with him a hammer and all hied
to the basement of Mr.. Funky's resi-
dence where boards were found planed
and cut to the right size Plenty of
nails were also handy by
That the boys did some effective
knocking may be known from the fact
that in a little over one hours time, all
of those 200 signs had been mounted
and neatly piled ready for distribution
to those who might volunteer to post
them.
1t may safely be said that 1t will
not be but a few days at the most be-
fore every good road leading into East
Chicago and Indiana Harbor will be
posted with neat attractive, readable
signs pointing the arrows in the right
direction.
These signs are uniform with all
signs put up by motor clubs affiliated
with the Hoosier State Automobile
association, and are being used plen-
tifully throughout the state.
w. f. Jewell is president of the local
club and DR.. G. w. Miller Is secretary.
At the conclusion Of the hammer-fest
the knockers were summoned to the
first floor, where Mrs. Funkay had
spread a very delightful fest" for re-
galhg the inner man.
With theexception Of several sore
thumbs. a blood blister or two, and the
escape Of few unprintable words. the
motor club boys had very pleasant
and profitable evening.
Look for the signs and credit the
East Chicago Motor club with thus ad-
vertising the city and giving motorists
the idea that we will appreciate their
presence and their patronage. Join
the motor club and help along good
work OF this nature.
