fuse to Contribute to
Success of Day.

That no soldier or sailor Of Hammond
or West Hammond is to be solicited in
the campaign Of the Finance COMMITTEES
10 raise funds for the big Home Comin4
celebration In Hammond next TUESDAY
was the emphatic statement issued ST
the meeting Of the general committee If
the Chamber Of Commerce last night
Reports had been received that several
eA-servlce men had been approached for
contributions since the drive started. bat
this Will not occur again and in cas-
any money has been contributed by ex-
service men the money will be refunded
with an apology.
INSTRUCTIONS EXPLICIT
Chairman Hannauer's instructions he'd
been explicit on this point. but ii Vas
found that the orders had not reached
several members of the committee. In
strucrions are to inquire first OF all
whether the contributor has been ia the
service.
The financial end Of the program j.
progressing nicely. Industries are re-
spending literally and business and pro-
fessional men are eagerly stepping to the
front However. as was the case In the
war drives. there are some citizens who
cannot see the patriotic side Of the AFFAIR
stances women solicitors reported that
they had been either refused outright
or had been offered paltry sums bv
merchants. A list has been kept OF
these and Il was decided that the oia
wrecking crew" should be called into

Boy Scouts drum corps Will be out and
II IS hoped TO have at least two other
musical organizations.
Many of the ex-service men are on-
jecting to wearing their uniform during
the celebration However the committee
urges that the boys lay aside their pref
udice for this one day and appear IN
uniform whether they were overseas or
not. We have never had an opportunit5
T. appreciate the full man power which
Hamond and West FIamond gave to the
war and 7 think the best way to bring
it home to our people and tell the world
about u too. is TO have every soldier
and sailor possible in that parade sail

their uniforms may tie a little worn. but
what does that matter2"
