WHITING. IND. Feb 10 Basket
ball in Lake county is taking on a lot
OF enthusiasm since the organizations
OF teams in Hammond. East Chicago and
Gary. All three Of these teams class
themselves as the best. and are ready
10 tackle the Whiting Owls for the
championship of the northern end Of

and who are the rightful claimants 10
the championship have heretofore paid
littIe heed 20 their sister cities who have
been clsmoring for games. but since
the recent victories OF the latter are
beginning to sit up and take notice. Hav-
ing already defeated Valparaiso and La
porte both at home and on their own
hoorS the Oil City boys figured that the
stumbling blocks TO their title had been
removed.
cary seems TO be the logical team to
play the Owls as their seasons record
is fully equal to that Of Whiting. How
ever. hammond is not to be overlooked
AS IN their late games they have demon
strated their ability 10 give the closest
If competition TO the best teams in the
state. East Chicago is somewhat Of a

making things very interesting for the
other trio
Considerable agitation Is now going
the rounds for tho organization OF six

Danger Signal.

If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help
to put out the fire? Is is much the
same way with a cough. A cough
is a danger signal as much as fire
bell. You should no more try to sup
press it than to stop fire bell when
it is ringing, but should cure the
disease that causes the coughing.
This can nearly always be done by
taking Chamberlain Cough Rem
edy. Many have used it with the
most beneficial results. 1t is espe-
cially valuable for the persistent
cough that SO often follows bad
cold or an attack of the grip. Mrs.
Thomas Beeching, Andrews, Ind,
writes: During the winter my hus-
band takes cold easily and coughs
and coughs. Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is the best medicine for
breaking. up these attacks and you
cannot get him to take anv other"

CAR IDENTIFIED
FOURTH OF ALLEGED STOLEN
CARS IDENTIFIED.
Frank Gardner Told Sheriff and
County Attorney They Would
"Never Get the Goods on Him"
On This Particular Car.

The fourth car which either Frank
Gardner or one of his agents is al.
legged to have stolen, has been iden-
titled by it's owner. This car, pur-
chased from Gardner by Mr.. An
derson residing east of Enterprise is
the one which Frank Gardner stated
that no matter how clearly the Off
Gals identified the other cars they
would t'never get the goods on him"
on this particular one.
The Ford was originally purchas-
ed from the Denver agency by H. p.
Dipmer of Carpenter, Wyo. 1t Is
alleged that Gardner or one of his
agents, stole the car and sent it here
where it was sold to Anderson. Har-
old Morrison had nothing to do with
this car. Sheriff Sherman found
the owner of the car by writing to
the factory and learning the location
of all Fords that the number end
ed in 81 and were made in 1917.
The factory referred him to the Den
yer agency and from there he traced
the owner to Carpenter, Wyo. Mr..
Dipmer will arrive in Abilene in
few days to further identify the car.

was changed to a and it was

RED CROSS CAMPAIGN FOR
MEMBERS CALLS FOR ACTION

Six thousand nurses of the Red
Cross are today on the French front,
living in huts and shacks and do
ing the severe work of caring for the
soldiers wounded and convalescing.
The Red Cross is sending nurses and
help to Halifax to help care for the
stricken of that city. The calls on
the organization are increasing daily.
No other war activity makes the
sympathetic appeal to every heart.
1t is the subject Of a call to serv-
ice right now at Christmas time and
every person in Dickinson county
ought to be member. A call has
come for ten million members at one
dollar each, Christmas member
ships. The local chapter is asking
every member to renew now and not
wait for next spring, so that the quo
ia of this county, 1850, may be
reached.
1t is not proposed to make a
house to house canvass-the people
understand too well the needs.
Places for the receipt of member
ships will be given tomorrow and ev-
cry man, woman and child in the city
ought to esteem 1t privilege to take |
a mem bership in this great organiza-
ton at this time-when the need is
so great and when the Christmas
spirit should animate us all

PAVING COMMISSION
SAYS WAIT AWHILE

The Paving commission has made
recommendation to the city coun-
Gil to hold up for the present in re-
gard to extending the paving in the
city. 1t seems to be the opinion Of
number of citizens that it would
put the city too deep in debt to go
ahead with other streets until the
taxpayers have recovered from this
first plunge in the good work. The
recommendation of the commission
follows:
To the Mayor and Council:
The citizens committee elected by
you, to aid and advise with your
honorable body relative to the paving
of the business section of your city,
beg to make the following recon-
mendation regarding further paving
in Marietta:
We think it best that before you
ordei other paving, or enter into
other paving contracts, the present
job should be completed, accepted,
and settled for, and a statement Of
the city's financial condition given
the public.
We are mindful of the fact that
this is time of international war,
with our country seriously involved,
and no one can foresee what finan-
cial conditions are ahead.
We think caution and economy
should prevail at present in public
matters as well as individual affairs.
