PREPARATION FOR PETTY THEFT.

Nothing in the 10000 word peace treaty can be more
humiliatng to Germany. if Germany retains any sense
Of honor, than the clause requiring the return of certain
curious articles collected in imperial days from various
parts of the earth.
They include the Koran of the Caliph Gilman. which
was formerly kept as a precious relic at the sacred city
of Medina. and which i now 10 be given into the custody
of the King of Hedjaz. They include, too, the skull of
the Sultan Okwawa Of German East Africa, which is to
De handed to the British government and which will
them return to the tribe it belongs 10.
There are also certain papers taken from France in
1870, the character of which is not revealed, but which
must have considerable historical or antiquarian value.
And la [, but not least, there are the astronomical insru-
ments carried off from the royal Chinese observatory at
Picking at the time of the Boxer trouble-the oldest in
struments of their kind in the world. which since they
left China have stood as ornaments on the front lawn of
the kaiser palace at Potsdam.
Thus Germany finds herself forced to disgorge the
products OF petty thieving almost forgotten, no less than
her gigantic loot in the present war. The German spirit
is revealed as predatory from the very beginning of the
empire. and ju t as ready TO steal a skull or a book as
a province or a kingdom.
A kingdom may be returned with a grand flourish.
But with what grace can petty theft be made good?
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1919-05-17
ASK THE BANKER ABOUT 1T.

It is good advice that is given by the Valparaiso Mes
senger. regarding the patronage OF the only stranger,
who seeks to sell YOU wildcat stock. 1t is advice that
has been given in these columns many times.
II is a matter of surprise to many business people
why some well dressed, fluent. soft voiced stranger can
come into a community. put up a story of large returns
on a small investment, and sell worthless stocks and
bonds to people who refuse TO invest in perfectly re-
liable propositions. Indiana, this year. will be a camp
ing ground for vendors of wild cat securities and thou
sands of dollars worth of worthless stock viii be sold
to people who are uninformed as TO their security. There
are two safe and certain rules by which the people may
avoid such loss. First Never buy stocks. bonds or
other securities from a stranger. Second There are
plenty of fine banks in Lake county. These banks are
all perfectly reliable and are conducted by directors and
officers who are interested in their general localities
They are informed and are always willing to advise as
to investments or business propositions of any kind,
as we say before. 70 uinvest to consult your banker.
He has facts at hand. also a line Of safe investments for
his own and his patrons money. To be safe-consult
your banker.

SERVICE IS OF REAL BENEFIT.

For many years the business community has suf-
fered from periods of depression. The most characteri
tic feature OF these periods was the great number Of
people who were out Of work. 1t seemed hideous anomaly
that hundreds Of thousands who ardently desired work.
could find nothing to do. 1t was a breakdown in the
existing social and economic machinery. says the Lafay-
cite Journal.
These periods Of depression and Unemployment used
sometimes to drag along four or five years. People
could not find work until there was a good demand for
merchandi e. And they could not buy merchandise until
they had work. 1t was a vicious circle of idleness and
inaction.
The experiences Of the war havo demonstrated that
It is not always necessary to spend millions in public
projects to find work for the unemployed. Under ordinary
condition there are as many employers seeking help
as there are workers seeking jobs. But they may live
a long distance apart. and they don't find each other.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1919-05-17
WATCH THE BoNFIRES.

The Victory Loan cleanup is to be succeeded in most
localities by a cleanup campaign in yards and public
properties. With this kind Of activity there is always
danger of fire. for most house and yard cleaning termin-
ates finally in a grand bonfire.
There Is no better disposition possible for the odds
and ends Of rubbish which have no salvage value, and
nothing leaves so sanitary and wholesome a state of
things. But every bonfire. private and public. should be
located sufficiently far from buildings to obviete any
danger of their catching. Also those who assist at the
ceremonies should be Of an age to do so safely. and
clothed in wooden garments so that there is no danger. of
the clothing being ignited by chance sparks, as is the
case with cotton garments.
Small children should never be allowed to tend the
bonfires nor to go near them. The death toll from fire
is largely among children under ten years Of age, and
almost all such deaths could be prevented by proper
watchfulness on the part of the older people.
Let the old bits of rubbish, of soiled, I'm lightly
things, undergo the cleansing flames by all means; but
due respect should be paid also to care of life and pro
perty.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1919-05-17
BACK TO HER OWN A N

Wherever poor Edith CavelIs spirit hovers in its
flight today it must wing its way more joyously for all
that is mortal of her rests in Engli b soil. For Edith
Cavell loved England and gladly gave her life for the
mother land. Its soil was far more precious 10 her
than her own tired body, weary from its years OF toll
for the suffering and oppressed. English history will
record Edith Cavelrs name as it does Florence Night
ingale's and Grace Darlings, and pilgrimages will be
made to the last resting place OF her dust. Edith Cavell
was a heroine. She lived a life Of sacrifice and with her
sanity character gave her all to the victims of the war.
She gave Just as gladly to German sick and suffering as
she did to any other nationality, for there was about her
the same spirit that pervaded the deeds of Jesus Christ,
and we have no doubt that as she went to her death she
said Of her executioners, Forgive them, for they know
not what they do
The brutal, dastardly murder of Edith Cavell was
Germany's twin crime with the sinking of the Lusitania.
The deed sent a shiver of horror around the world and
branded the Germans forever. The spectre of this
martyr must haunt the misery Of that creature at
Amerongen to this day.
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1919-05-17
THEY'LL SAY THIS IS ANOTHER BLAT.

North Holman treet in Hammond, particularly from
the bridge to Hoffman, is really dangerous to travel on.
The city wants this street paved and paved badly, but
the annoying slowness with which the proceedings to
pave necessarily move makes 1t extremely doubtful that
the Improvement can be completed this year.
For the sake of the good name of the city is there
nothing that can be done to even aneliorate the situation
as regards to North Holman and 150th streets. II doI,
seem as il il would not be a waste of money to fill in
the chuck holes and repair the worst places. Hammond
has a scariher and while the work done by the ma
chine is not enduring, no one would call it extravagans
If the city spent some money in making these thorough
fares at least safe. if not comfortable for the immense
amount of auto traffic done.
Hammond. as far as its streets and railroad crossings
are concerned is a laughing stock TO its neighbors. both
East Chicago and Gary. The Holman street crossing,
with its projecting spikes to rip auto tires TO pieces, is
a crying disgrace to any city. At least the railroads
ought to be brought TO time in the matter of repairs.
It seems TO be useless to demonstrate idle TO sug
gest and absurd to criticize. The long suffering public
has evidently made up its mind to keep on long suf
fering. What Hammond needs is a red-hot civic organ
ization to throw the harpoon into somebody or something
and get action-real action.

Hence. unemployment. and all its miseries and danger
The United States employment service has found
work for millions of men. This greatly increa ed fight
ing power of the United States and 1t has also succeeded
in carrying the coun try through the initial stage of the
readjusment period without disaster.
This service should be made a permanent bureau.
II will prevent indu trial depressions from starting.
Every time you put an idle man TO work, you stop a
center Of social unrest and possible Boshevism. The
work of the employment service is a triumph OF Ameri
can efficiency.
