RESULTS IN GARY

266OA40 G1A61
In Gary the results were 4 to ! In
favor Of Harding over Cox, and 3 to l
over the combined opposition. 1t IS
believed final figures for Gary wiz
show Harding with close to 5000. Cox
1850 and Christensen. LOO
Christensen Jared better proportion
ately in Hammond than any other city.
The totals for Hammond were as fol-
lows: Harding. 5.232; Cox. 1895;
Christensen, $50.
Gary rolled up a vote approximated
at 50 per cent; Hammond turned out
about so per cent. while East Chicago
and Whiting furnished even higher per-
centages than Gary. Dlsagreeable wea-
ther cut heavily into the vote all over
the county, but the results were much
better than expected.
CONCENTRATE ON KINDER
Every county republican candidate
went over with majorittes practically
the same as those of the presidential
candidates. The democrats had con-
centrated their efforts against Dwight
NJ Kinder. the republican candidate for
prosecuting attorney and it had been
freely predicted that Murray. the dem
ocrat, would make heavy inroads.
Much Of the expected scratching did
not naterialize although several pre-
cincts slapped Kinder hard in favor Of
Murray. Kinder trails behind the rest
Of the ticket, while the complimentary
vote for Murray places him at the
head Of his ticket

CHAMPION JAM MAKER

Breaking all previous records, Mrs.
Allyn X. Capron, supervisor of Red
Cross kitchen No. / at the District of
Columbia Chapter House, 16 Jackson
place northwest. delivered more than
5000 containers of jellies, jam and
marmalade. in the past two days. to
the patients in the following institu-
tions: tuberculosis Hospital, Public
Health Service Hospital at Mount
Alto. Little Sisters of the Poor, Cas-
ualty Hospital, Home for lncurables
st. Elizabeth's Hospital. Stoddard
Baptist Home, Home for Aged Colored
Women and Children. and the hospital
at Fort Myer.
When it is taken into consideration
that Mrs. Capron not only delivered
these delicacies, but prepared them as
well. the magnitude of the task can
be more readily understood.
So well known have her products
become that several of the leading
clubs in the District are placing orders
with her for their commissaries. the
net proceeds from such sales being
devoted to making these luxuries for
the aged and infirm in the hospitals
and institutions of Washington where
they are most needed.
